an investigation by the house Of representatives
the Celt says:
aNow in relation to that division on Herbert:
case, we have duty to perform, and we shall
not shrink from discharging it. That duty is
Ito announce, in unmistakable terms, to the
adopted citizens OF Irish birth, throughout The
country, that the democratic party in congress:
have shamefully deserted their duty, deserted
their own professions of impartiality between
{ different classes of citizens, and they have a;
plainly as deeds can speak, declared the muir
der Of man of Irish birth. BY one Of thei1
colleagues, to be tride wholly unworthy ever
of inquiry Is the democratic party mad, or is
it only rotten, that it should SO belle ITSELF
With half dozen exceptions, every man of the
majority for Keatings murderer is professed
\ democrat" What then, does it mean? Or
can it mean anything bat one thing-that an
Irishman born, however peaceable or loyal, is
only fit to be used by the democratic party, and
when used, set up for target, and shot with
impunity. This is what it means, and to this
meaning we shall hold the entire party
\ We hold Messrs. Pierce, Douglas and Buch-
anan responsible for this conduct of their con-
fdants and supporters. They were all in Wash
ington; it was for days the topic of the town; if
their friends have taken sides against the VIC
tim and against common justice, they are not
wholly above suspicion. A few DAYS ago the
blood of Thomas Heating was on the hands of
but one democrat, it has spread since then, and
it is now upon the souls of the 70, who refuse
all inquiry. It's on the democratic party, as
party, and accursed be be who helps such a
party into power, until that blood is lawfully
purged away"
This is pretty strong language, but the Celt
concludes with the following unmistakable hint
LET them not suppose that this matter is 60
ing to stop here. One who seldom drops any
thing has il now in hand, and he distinctly
warns the democratic representatives at Wash
ington, that if justice is not done the murderer
Mr.. Herbert, they will be held accountable, as
the party, who interposed to screen and protect
him from the penalty of his guilt
Who is this aone9" Its editor is a mouth
piece of bishop Hughes, and the above may be
regarded as the threat Of The archbishop against
the democratic party. He will hold them ac-
countable @for the Heating murder The Ian
guage is incapable of any other construction.
The democratic representatives are to be Judged
by the Irish citizens and voters of the United
States, for the charge of guilt in the matter of
the Staying Of Keating. The old ally turns
upon its own party
The Celt also severely attacks one of its
Washington correspondents for yenturing toI
shield Mr.. Herbert by calling him an 'honora-
BILE man. and saying that he deeply regrets
the unfortunate occurrence
Before Mr. Fillmore made his speech at Al
bany, the black republican organs in New York
affected to treat his pretensions to the presiden-
cy with contempt and ridicule. They almost
ignored his existence as candidate, especially |
IN the free States, and one of them went so far
as to say that the only effect of his running
would be to increase the chances of Mr.. Buch-
anan's defeat by drawing off one or two south
ern States His speech at Albany, however
has fallen like bombshell in the black repub-
lIcan camp. His existence is no longer ignor-
ed. He has become the prominent mark at
which the whole artillery of the big and little
organs is leveled. The Tribune, the Times.
The Courier and Enquirer, and the ALBANY
Journal are brimful of wrath. MIR. Fillmore
has counseled the south to reasonable resist 4
ince, say these lava abiding and Union-lo loving |
patriots. He had declared that if Fremont Is
,leaed, the south will not submit and OUGHT /, ,

The above is the candid admission Of the n
