We announced, some days ago by telegraph, that
the Committee of The House of Representatives
sppointedt to investigate the connection OF the Hon.
Thomas Corwin with the Gardiner claim, had
made report reppdiating the claim, and fully eS-
onerating Mr.. Corwin from any censure whatever
in the matter. ~
This decision, extorted as it was by overwhelm-
ing facts, from Mr.. Corwin's enemies, utterly de-
molish favorite theme OF yillifcation, oil MI.
Corwin in particular, and the Wing party in gen.
eral. The Republic very justly says that this re-
suit, though fully anticipated by Gil those VINO

ing, after the malignant and ungenerous attacks
which have been made upon him by unscrnpuious

as this decision has received the unanimous sane
ton of the committee a majority OF whom are po-
litical opponents of Gov. Corwin.

Saturday. 1t is crushing exposure OF SCOTS

into ecstacies. He actually "loved II, It reminded
| him OF how IrshInen had fought side by side with
| b.m in Mexico. sc. Now, to show the total i'll
sincerity of this, it is only necessary TO turn to one
of his letters to recruiting officers, written during
the war OF 1871. The following is an extracts:
"You are instructed not 10 enlist foreigners, for
| the battalion of St. Patrick has taught us that
| foreigners cannot be trusted"
"This was at q late period and not at the conf
mencement of the war What has since changed

Adjutant-G General at Washington; ard OIL inquiry
there, am authorized 10 81 te that no such in

instructions were, however, issued from the AdJu-
tant Generals Office it could only have been done
with the sanction Of President Polk or Mr.. Marcy,
Secretary of War, under which Adjutant-
Jones issued orders during the absence OF General
| Scott in Mexico.
The utter folly of so doing, in time Of war espe
cially is sufficient to stamp this, purporting TO he
an extract from Geu. Scott instructions, base
forgery. lreiterate-the statement is utterly false!

Will Iri.hnen support British Policy.
New YoRK, Sept T., 1852.

To the Editors Of the N. Y. Tribune:
am lrisllman, though naturalizcd citizen
of the United States. | wish to say one word on
politics. Is it true that the leading English papers
in favor of the election of Gen. Pierce as like
ly TO benefit the cotton lords of Manchester, Biz
mingham, and other manufacturing English towns
If so, my vote is decided for Scott Loving my
fatherland, whose lifeblood has been trampled out
by the English trade and manufacturers policy, |
cannot uphold any man or party anywhere that
promises to aid that accused English policy. Did
not our own eloquent Meagher, i'll lS47, in Dublin,
declare that this English policy had robbed Ireland
of her manufactures, palsicd her industry, and
ruined her trade and can any lrishman born help
that policy to longer or stronger life l am told
that that tories. of papers, the London Times,
which has repeatedly exulted over the desolation
of Ireland, claims that the election of Mr.. Pierce
will be worth millions TO Manchester and Birming-
ham! Is it 50 l may be wrong, but | believe
Irishmcn not fond of British parties, of par
ties advocated by British tories. Will you not, not
for my sake, but for the sake OF truth, that rshmen
may know who they are serving, publish what these
English papers do say-also, what Mr.. Meagher
said about British policyin 1S47! Let us have the
truth in brief, and oblige ....r
Yours, &c. JOHN MCDERMOT.

Marc Kolters.

From the Cadiz Republican, we learn that Hon.
Samuel Peppard. State Senator from that District
Lewis Lewton, Esq, and DR.. Thomas, have boite,l
the nomination of Frank Pierce, because they
consider him wholly unfit TO fill the important po-
sition for which he has been nominated, and be-
cause they cannot swallow the alien and setition
platform upoE which he stands.
These gentlemen have heretofore been the bell
weathers o. Shamrocacy in that county, and will
doubtless induce hundreds of Democrats to pursue
a similar course. All over the State we have the
same news of honest Democrats boiling Pierce aud
his abominable platform.
