WASHINGTON, February q, 1855.
To the Editor Of the Amsyican Organ:
SIR In your paper Of the 2lst instant, nm.
der the head Of Facts for Americans-Je suit.
ism in oar Government" copied into Il. and
endorsed By ysu, there are 50 MANY errors
that take the liberty Of correcting the same
50 far as they relate to my father and myself
The article alluded to says that am am.
pioyed to aid the agent contrary to law Such
Is not the case. / am employed in the Depart.
ment In conformity to law, and, amongst other
duties, is that Of aidirg the disbursipg aeeu,.
and such assistance as has been assigced to
that desk since the year 1929.
The article further says:
"All the subordinate EMPLOYEES in The st,,a
Department. except one, are foreign Catholics
appointed by Mr.. Edward Stubs, in the place
OF American citisens. And even this ono ex.
csption Mr.. Stubs has endeavored on several
occasions to remove, and has only been re.
strained fron doing so by the influence Ct
prominent citizens Of Warrington, who per.
sonslly represented the case to Gen. Pierce "
TINS Is certainly made out Of whole cloth,
a. the facts will show.
On the first day of July 1853, the day on
which my father was appointed to ofiss, there
were eight laborers and four wachmen
since which time one laborer, q foreigner and
Catholic. has been removed, and q foreigner
and Catholic was appointed in his place
three laborers have resigned, and thsre have
been appointed in their places three Amsri.
an-born citizens, not Catholics, one Of whom
fought for his country in the war of 1912. or
the watchmen, two have been removed, one
OF whom has been succeeded by foreigner
and Catholic, asd the other by an America,
citizen not Catholic. With these removals
and appointments father bad nothing to do,
and his answer invariably has been to those
who have applied to him for Office, that he
had neither the power to remove nor appoint
to Office.
ASerse as 1 am to newspaper notoristy. I
cannot refrain from asking you to publish
this, az presume you would not willingly
publish in your paper what you knew to be
untrue.
Very respectfully

JOHN M. BERRIEN.-The Savannah Rep1bli car
of the 10th contains long and powerful letter
from the Hon. John NJ Berrien, in favor of tho
American party. tits, says the Republican, IA
powerful vindicaton of the principles ond objects
of the American party. and sweeps away. as with
the hand of a giant the shallow sophstries and
windy objections of pettifogging lawyers and Pc
ripatetic stump speakers. The present position
ofJudge Berrien, his eminent ability and long SER
vices cannot but impart great weight to his coun-
sells, and commend them to the respectful con-
sideration of the reader. He does not appear as
partisan, nor an asprant to office interested
in the result of the election he addresses himself
to the people, of the State, and discourses the
great questions involved with the ability of the
great statesman and in the spirit of the patriot"
