Andy draws illogical inferencess, These
facts instead of eliminating the American
party, show clearly that the foreigners
were guilty of commencing the riots them.
selves; and, that the charges Of Mr.. Stu
art had their origin in his own laIe brain.
If Andy ever expects to be returned to
Congress BY the people of this District,
he should learn to speak the ruth at short
er imteruals than he is in the habit of do
ing at present.
We think that if Mr.. Stuart would
"pluck the beam out Of his own eye" he
would find a tsw shell hounds Gas he
terms the rioters) in the "beautiful organ
isation" of which the honorable gentle
man is member.
The charge which he makes upon th'
Americans of having falsely accused 'h'
foreigners by telegraph, is too unfounde(
to require any notice. If there are an!
"false accusations" to be corrected, wha
a glorious hand Andy is to do it. Whcr
the correction comes from his pen it vii
be beautiful indeed.

We proclaim 10 the world the Glowing
PRINCIPLES OF THE AMERICAN
PARTY OF OHIO.

I. The nnlimi ted freedom Of Religion dis

II. No interference with the rights of cit.
zenship aleady acquired by Foreigners, and
the prptection Of law to all who honestly emi
crate from love Of liberty but the exclusion OF
fureiyn paupers and frlOns, and refusal to
extend the right Of suffrage to all who come
hereafter until they shall have resided 2l years
in the United States aud complied with the
naturalization Laws.
III. Opposition to all political organizations
composed Exclusively of Foreigners, aud to
Foreign Military Companies, and to all attempts
to exclude the Bible from Schools supported BY
the government"

V. In humble imitation Of the wisdom o
