Political Suicideism.

"The Nebraska bill gives the right to vote, and
the right to hold Office to an alien. be he a
sident of the territory but for one day. The
act approved BY Pierce, the President of the
aliens, in July. 1854, gires quarter section of
the public domain to every alien of the age Of
twenty one years, who will settle on and till it,
be the settlement but for one day. Thus, BY
these two acts. conceived by policy in utter
hostility to American principles, and destruc-
of our nationality, and mortalIy antagonistic to
the political power, weight and interests of the
South, the political sovereignty of this Repub>
lie and its public domain are given away to
class OF men, without fee or reward, to oust
natives from their own soil, and to outvote
them at the polls. Such acts of political sui-
eide were never committed by any nation, peo-
pie or ruler uuder. the sun, except by Caracalla
the basest and stupidest of Roman tyrants,
who, in order to crush The native spirit of the
proud Roman, and to debase him to the level
of barbarians, extended the rights of citizenship
to all, without distipctions of birth, color, race
or religion"

Fair undoubtedly. On the principle that
"Fair is foul, aud foul is fair" We do not pre-
tend to say, that the above manufactures have
not letters patent-rights according to the acts
of Congress, and State acts. to manufacture
votes in this wholesale manner; but-yet-cir.

wise to any candid and impartial mind. Here
on the eve of an important election-when the

81 pf the glaring evils of the times, parfi-
zar courts with partizian judges theron. par.i.
zan runners, partzan demagosues, "to stand
snd swear" are organized and busiy at work,
pressing in those who are blinded by The mere
word democrat" to nullify and defeat the best

otism of this nation.
When we come to consider that voters thus
made, are mostly uneducatcd people Of other
climes-people who do not understand the
institutions of this glorious country-people
who are taught that democracy" means IL
cense and unres,rained liberty; we tremble at
the clouds lowering over the republic in its
future destiny. That native born citizens, are
engaged in this kind of trade, is not a. all sur.

sEk4aSafiEEs AszkAQUEmrNE.
I rr0liespondent of the Crescent tells the
following about the "Colonizing" System, as
threatened mere !: -
sGangs Of foreigners, principally Irish, are
continually finding their way into the parish of
Plaquemines. Adjoining, or not far off from the
plantation of one Of the American candidates,
is crowd Of about one hundred! They ar
rived there within the past few days. The
head man, the leader-having, in former years,
been placed under obligations to the aforesaid
American candidate-in a conversation with
him, plainly said that they came there TO pote
and proffered his influence to induce his crowd
to vote for the Americans.
Now, ISN'T this pretty state of affairs-in
fact, decidedly unctuous state Of affairs
state Of affairs rery becoming an American
parish, having laws for its own guidance, and
legal population to enforce and obey those
laws!
We understand, also, that up to the latest
information there were about one hundred and
fifty more foreigners scattered about the neigh.
boFhood Of the various precincts!-This would
make some two hundred and fifty votes in all,
these people only voted once. but as
they have q prociivity to vote an indefinite
number Of times whenever the opportunity
presents itself, there is no telling to how high
. figure the vote would swell were they per-
mitted to v0te at all. In such an event there
% little question but 1874 wouid be cast en-
tirely in the shade.

Great Mass Meeting!
EXCITING RESOLUTION

EXCITING RESOLUTION
Photographed especially for the sentinel
New YORK, Nov. 3.
The Anti.Americans had Meeting in the
Park this evening-lO,O00 persons at least
were in attendance, and five different speakers
addressed the multitude, two of whom were
the Van Burens, father and son, and Horace
Greeley. This latter, however, must be mis-.
take. The Meeting was called in view of the
important election for Sheriff to be held in the
Parish Of Ibervile. State of Louisiana, on the
5th inst.
Resolution was passed, reprobatory of the
Election of Jos. H. Erwin, asserting that his
success would "contumaciously" smash up the
Great Democratic Party existing between Ma.
son and Dixon's Line and the shores of the Pa
ciic. It was confdentially asserted by Mr.. J.
Van Buren that Erwin's election (from the ex>
citement the matter is creating) would cause
the Hards to nominate him for the Presidency,
a circumstance which would operate against
President Pierce's calculations.
The Meeting continued when our despatch
was forwarded. We anticipate another during
the day.
