New hampshire constitution, II Is parllcplar- |
ly worthy OF remark that Gen. Pierce had
no visible interest Of his own to serve. The
late Baltimore nomination, so unexpected to |
himself, has maze these things Of some inn
portance. But, at the time, in defending
The interests Of Catholics, and of adopte !
generally he did generous, disin-
terested thing, and he ran the risk. if risk 4
there was, Of offending two parties then
powerful, or seemingly powerful in theeoun-t
try. We mean the Natives and the bisots
We are sorry that this question was rails
ed at all. Not on the account of Gen. Pierce
for the lies circulated about him will do him
no harm, as they havebeen so promptly ex-
posed by the Catholic Press, ---theparty nat
urally the best informed upcn the matter.7-
But we do not like to see the Catholics sing j,
led out from the body Of American citizens,
aud made the subjects Of electioneering tx4
pesiments. We dislikeap politicians who love
us, at electioneering seasons, and who do
mot know US at all alter The election is, over.
Nov the wings have been guilty of this cap
'ital error, and, in our opinion, il win not
end to iheir good. They havesuadehIy Y dis
covered that Catholics are aninterested class
'of persons; that New. Hampshire does not
treat them well that General Pierce must be
to blame for this, and therefore ought not
ito be President; that Gen Scott treated
Catholic soldiers wei. respected Catholic
churches, was present,at Catholic professions
in Mexico, and therefore ought 70 be Presi-
dent. This is not the way. IN which the con
test should be conducted Rrhe trugquestiou
Ito be settled is-which is the best nian---
which candidate stands on true American
ground--which man is the, enemy Of tree7
1soilism, flibusteriSm, intervention, domestic
anarchy, of radicalism? Which man is for
the Union, the Constitution--including
the slavery .clause--and for. the Laws+-in-
Guiding the laws against treason and yiola-
stion 81 international treaties? These, and
similar questions are the questions which
should be asked. The policy of singing out
the Catholics in this way besides being ami
American. is foolish, for America, has not,
and cannot have n state Of religion. The
religion, OF religious prejudices, or want Of
religion, in a President, caiihot affect Cath
ohcs Or Protestants, as such. di And it is very
foolish to misreprsent a candidate, as some
of the papers mlsrepresent Gen, PlerceS in
in order to prcdjudice The Catholics against
him, when the repre- cntation is SO easily ex-
posed. The authors of this falsehood about
Cen, Pierce forgot that there, ta4c thirteen
Catholic papers in the United States all oI

them disposed 10 even allow one Of, theil
lreadert to be hoodwinked It viii be wei
for Gen. Scott if he can clear his skirts o
q Natiyism as easily as Pierce can fling back
the charge Of opposing CATHOLIC interests.
A. All these things are well understood here
at the East, and we smile at The efforts mao,
TO secure our votes because this candidate wa.
+ Supposed to be friendly to the Catholics, q
BECAUSE that candidate was born in Prot
eStant State. But we learn that unremiting
efforts have been made 10 arrange the Cath.
}olics w sconsin, Iowa, and other Western
States against Gen.. Pierce on the alledgel
ground that he opposes Catholic interests. 49,
We write this, article. to let them know the
merits OF the whole story, and show them
that the story is 4 very clumsy lie After
that is settled they can vote for whom they
please, but it is not right that either party
should single US out particularly, and try to
secure our Nptessupon hlse issuesl Q Let us
stand upon American ground, Or upon none
at all. ..
|. We repeat that we hope this subject will
never again call fora remark from the Gath
iolic press. 1--WE have treated It from the be-
ginning with reluctance. because it isreally
FhumiIiating to, know that politicians thihkso
Imeanly Of us, Catholics, as to suppose that
such Considerations as these can sway our
votes. If the time ever vas when they
could, tits gomez and the sooner this appre-
ciated, the better it will be for irlL concerned!
Meanwhile. ourreaders will accept this arti4
Gle as a fuIlflment Of our promise to expose
falsehood and false issues raised against eth
.er candidate, from whatever .quarter. Our
position Aobliges Us to do this,
to say nothing ofthe factthat The falseEoods
told about The New lIampShre affair and
the silly issues predicted upon them,a were
such as especially merlted rebuke- from, the
Catholic press Of tie Uaited States. Give
the candidates a fair fidld9telr nc lies about
