In looking over The Boston Daily Times
of the Sd inst, find that New Hampshire Demo-
crat inquiries who this L. Quin is that corresponds
with The NeT- York Tribune. | would ans wer
that gentleman by saying am the same who in
the year 1916 had the scales taken from my eyes
by dropping into this hot bed of Loco r ocoism-the
same, Sir who in the month of March, 1851 was
supported for Prudential School Committee in this
town, and out Of ffty-three votes | received
twenty three, most of which IF not ALL cast
by Wings. And why did | not receive Demo
cratic votes Because, as they themselves said
Twas an lnshnan and Catholic. | am the same
Sir, who in in the same year was designated by a
Wing Board Of Selectmen as a fit person for Jury
man, and they handed my name, with several
others Of my felow-citizeDs, to the Town Clerk,
to be drawn for that purpose. Well, it fell to my
lot to be drawn, and the Democrats went so far
as to say that they would see that the Judge
should not receive me. Tnen, in the month of
March, 1872 some of the same Board of Selcctmen
were up for Office, and the Democrats made pos-
ical capital out OF my seec ton and tried to defeat
their election by saying to some OF the Wings,
Are you going TO vote for men that would, whe
there were plenty of Americans aud PrOtestants,
put into the jury box an lrishman and Catholic ;"
This, Sir, is part OF the liberation we receive
from the Democrats Of this place. Oar Demo-
cIat goes on to say was once Democrat, but
am low Wing. This, Sir, Is not the place, nor
now the time 1 fit 10 answer hun that
point. But if this is the case, does it not speak
volumes for the cause | represent If all my
cOuntrymen could by any possible means have the
same opportunity OF spending SIX years IN this
etate, as | have had, instead OF being Demo
Gratis, as three-f Ourths of them now are nlnc
tenths of them would be Wings. He asserts
that most of my countrymen in this part OF the
country are Democrats Now he knows this to
be q false hood; for Of all my cOuntrymen who
are voters in this town, question II there was
one who voted for the Democrats last March.
He SAYS the Wings were as much 70 blame as the
Democrats in regard TO the relief clause. Now,
Sir a review of the votes M the Democratic and
Wing towns III this State will settle the question,
for we see u majority in almost all the Wing towns
for the alteration. while in almost all the Demo-
cratic towns the reverse IS the case.
lie SAYS have been a resident of this State six
years and that during tnat time | kept busy at
my occupation and could not get acquainted with
some 80 900 voters. Our worthy Democrat is
not aware that before | became a resident Of this
State ! visited almost all the towns in this State,
and had fair chance of ascertaInlng the opinion
Of many members OF the two great political par.
ties on that question: ana nave Judged LOT my st"
which was most favorable.
He SAYS don't pretend to say anything against
+. Pierce True sir. The LOnd0H Tunes, the
organ of the prosecutors of my race, speaks IN
favor of him, and rays he will be great accession
10 British interest If elected. This, SIR, is enough
TO let my country men know what they ought 70
90. Not so with our ustrous hero. Not word
in has favor but chat he is the greatest living Cen
tral. They have not forgotten what he has SAID
On r. former occasion, that for every Irish prisoner
OF war that should be sacrificed two EDgllshman
rhOuld bite the dust. Aud then when MS londeSo
hopes we're realized, in seeing those poor fellows
whom he ALLUDED to once more walk Amen;a
soil. said he "a have fought many battles, but
never was so near being killed as was by the en-
b aces Of those poor fellows" aud now that he IS
once more in the field, TO fight one more battle,
trust my countrymen, whom he has SAID never
turned their back on the enemy, will not no" de
sert him until we proclaim hun Chief Magistrate
