nsunced him as ga liar calumniator aud scoun-
dret, although no man has more carefully AVOID.
ed appeals TO national prejudice and abuse Of
Gen. Scott, during this canvass, than has Gen.
Shields. But in 1874 regarding, like his illus
frioxs ehi.f, Gen. Scott all foreigners as fools,
seosadreis. Paapers, ragraats, ragatonds and
the most debased ,oretekes on earth, it is not ex-
pected that prejudice which was SO deep seat
cd at that time. would be easily erad,cated.
Prentice is the exponent Of Southern whig-
gerry aud is as renowned in his character a. a
political leader, as in his reputation as 4 wit
What he says now, of the Irish patriot soldier
and statesman Shields, was what he said Of all
Foreigners in 1874 and is probably what he vii
say to the day ofhis death, if he speaks the hon.
est convictions of his heart. With him as the
representative Of wing liberality in the South

To the Editors of the Patriot.
Whereas, an article has been published in the
New Hampshire statesman, subscribed with
he names of large number of our country,
men, among which are our own, relative to the
lction OF Gene al Pierce upon the religious test
n the Constitution Of New Hampshire, and the
estimation with which we regard him on that
recount; and as our signatures 10 that article
were obtained through fraud aud misrepresen-
ation, and as it is in our opinion calculated TO
deceive that portion of our countrymen who
live more remote from, and who know less of
General Pierce than ourselves, as well as to
iniure him in their estimation-we desire to
make through your columns the following
statement, which we do voluntarily and with
out having been requested so to do by any
one.
few days since we were called upon by a
Nr. Cooney from Albany, and gentleman
from this village, (whose name we will not now
expose, hut ieavehimA his conscience to Justify
the course he has pursued,) and through the de-
ceptonsthey practized upon we were induced
to put our names 10 that article.
Since singing it and learning what we had
done, and the trap in whichwe had been caught,
we have been dissatisfied with ourselves, and
wished to recall what was done We called IN
IN friend and requested him to write for US
what is here written.
We wish fnrh,r to add that, we hold Gen
Pierce in high estimation, and feel grateful II
him for the efforts he has put forth to rid the
Constitution of this State Of that odious
test. We not now naturalized citizens
| but were we SO, we intend soon to be, our
voices and our votes should be for Pierce and
King.
