glish factaries, though il would ruin Irish
zones, 50 Ftce Trade was dccrced. and the
ruin followed. It was but one link in the
chain Of tyranny aud oppression by which
ireland was broke down, starved and unpop-

Well, Ireland has spent all her substance
in enriching her English opPrcssors, and
now she has grown too poor to bo of any
further use to them. But they 10 not give

this
"Go across the Atlantic, Patrick, and Ia

place with Englishmen, Scotchmen aud cat

one hand, while we steal from you with the
other. Go over to America and earn money
and spend ii for English goods. Refuse to
protect American labor, just ns we refused
to protect yours. Vote for the party chat

the whole "Democratic" ticket, and throw
up your hat for Pierce and King and the
Queen and the London Times! Then you
will have the satisfaction Of knowing that
you helped, as far as you could, to make the
country of your adoption as dependent on us
as the country of your birth. Then you
will still be in our service, and we shall get
your taxes and your tithes!'
Just such advice as that, we are confident,
every adopted Irishman will spurn, as he
would the tyrants who give it. The party
who talk uguinst England and yet work for
her and adopt measures to her advantagc,are
beginning to be appreciated, and when their
hollow professions are understood, Il cir dem-
ngogucism can no longer suyc them from an
