WI must nevertheless remark that. in those

All that passed than ourself. We were witnesses
Of nearly everything that occurred, down to the
closing If Tile polls The rest We learned, with

took immediate part in whatever WAS done.
The Deita's reflections on the whole matter
are exceedingly just, except 80 far as i adverts
{ adniringly to the precepts which Mr. john
Mitchell has addressed to his countrymen, as TO
their duties as American citizens Popular az

\ because. d. s well known, there is body Of
biasfolntryuien here who have conceptions 80
bli,nsieripr and SO brutal Of that Freedom which
t,av s,,p,oss themselves to love, that when We,
The other day. ventHred. in a very quiet and
rational manner, to doubt whether Mr. Mitchell
was quite 1T to be made q God Of, these men at
opoe 6xed upon us their senseless luminosity,
and began to hluster of mobbing u.s. Such is
their idea Of that liberty Of speech which we
are to have, ii America, under their discreet
and liberal domination
But to proceed is enough to say Of those
precepts, applauded by the Delta, that though
just enough, they were an after thought, ana
totally IN contradiction TO all those leading and
extrayagant purposes which Mr. Mitchell had,
in the FIRST Instance, proclaimed. He had told
the United States that he meant to make Of this
continent the mere prop, the Archimidean full
erun,, upon which hs would rest the lever that
was to upset the British sway in Ireland: and
after thus making OF his own unaequired citizen
ship the mere instrument Of designs for another
country--after thus boasting that he intends to
sink. All bis newly assumed duties towards us
+ into an utter suhordination to those Of q coun-
try which hehas renowned, he stands up and
pretends to exhort Irishmen to forget that they
srsre SO. and to chase from their hearts oil
feelings but those Of their new obligations
For our part, we have little respect for that
sort Of loyalty which runs away from ones OPP
pressed country, in order to play the patriot at
the expense Of another land. The Irish are
eight millions. If they are 1T to be free, why
they not free Who are free but by their
own virtue and velor and sense If any coun-
try is nor free, why is it but for the want Of
those qualities, the sole salvation Of nations
Could we make her free without them, how could
she stay So What, then, are we to do, as to
her But this--to teach her children the Free
dom which they have never seen to American
ize the Hibernian; not to allow them to hiberni-
cize US.
