Now then what are these issues that are brought beor
The peoplef Ii is said suddenly that awfn
terors that about 10 destroy the Institutions OF
arises from the foregnLorn citizens that among
These two things would suppose from the excitement
that has taken place recently about them Mngs
just discovered You would suppose from the arguments
OF these people that they have made grand discovery
They tell you that you to restrict yourselves 10 the
narrow limits Of two deasone Of ansavery, another OF
hatred 10 foreign bornnd that there you STOP and
have nothing 10 do for your country beyond them Aud
from the way In which these propositions are put for
ward as the paramount issues IL would appear that these
thngsssyery and foregnershad never before existed
in this country.
Who that listens to these decaimers would suppose that
this country when il went into the battles Of the revou-
on was made OF foreign born and native bprn and
man either knew inquired whence another came Who
would suppose that when the Union formed most OF
the original States had the institution of domestic slavery
and said not aword about it. except TO agree respect each
others rights and send back gtives from service Who
would suppose that this institution Of slavery existing
xed domestic institution in onehalf the States of the
ederacy from thai day 10 this period OF seventy years
with e number adopted citizens increasing that day
TO this end with such territory such vast
expansion OF our country that you can dip one hand in the
Atlantic the side and the other in the Pacific on the
other side and say this great country is who would
suppose from the clamor these parties that
had gone in this way and become what and had
foreign born and slavery all the while existing among Us
Yet such is the fact and where has been the destruction
the ruin Of our country from either of these Is
not that one fact enough To teach that all this clamor
about these two Of dagger against which,
told the whole North must fuse and combine, is utterly
unonnded-got up, devised, and fabricated with some
other end in view than the good Of the country
great many say that make up a party
exclusively against the influence Of foegnborn citizens
among us, and especially that must "dorn rah the
Pope who lives great way olive do not exactly know
where for he has scarcely oothod upon which 70 stand
from day to day and instead OF exborng good
old fathers did against the devil and his works. they tell
us that there nothing 10 be feared but sthe Pope
and hs works suppose there very honest and
sincere men and who terribly afraid Of
the Pope, and | pity them very much. / cannot bur
conmseraie those citizens who wofuy fright
ened at this ''rawhead and bloody bones very
sorry for them, and want them 10 pluck up courage
and get cured II they terrified at the foreign popua
ton among and really fear that the Pope and the Irish
will murder drive all the native Americans OF
the country really pity them again, that they so
much influenced by such weak fears want to stand by
them and them that the democratic party,
whether successful not in this State viii certainly be
successful in the United States and they will protect them
Applause and Kisses tell you, my friends Of the secret
order ysu may need that protection by and by because
under that you derive the only power that you TO
hold your secret midnight lodges and stand here and
hiss tonight Loud checrs II twas not for that dem
ocraiic power which gives freedom every man instead
OF standing here tonight under the shield OF ba, consi
tuition you are trying 10 destroy, OF that Union you
trying TO disseyer, you would have despotisn you
and should you dare 10 hold secret public meeting
and speak upon any subject the s; word The first hss
that from your heads would be followed by file OF
soldiers carrying you off to Baste Loud applause
mingled with faint Kisses That is what you owe to
American Institutions which you trying break
down by these futile attempts nce hatred Of races and
bring up sectional sues and form geographical parties
Upon that Point felow-czeus the foreign born there
is danger We have got only about two millions of for
egn born among US. wish they were doubled in our
broad praires! care not bow many here II they
will come and settle lauds and bring with them the
capital better than the paper stocks banks and copo
ratons deal inbe capital of bones, and muscles, and

built up the United States Of America, which has made
athe wilderness 10 blossom the rose Here mil
lions OF foreign born say, and have twentyour or
i've millions Of native born against these two millions and
reckon take care OF them There Is founda-
ton for any alarm that point am not willing to give
in my adhesion 10 the knownotbing doctrine that holds
mp the idea that fsreire Americans fog shIsn
Moreover believe that whenever it is necessary fog
body defend and protect this country and especially
IL we should have occasion TO fog England, which
trust shall not, there men who would into II

plause They would stand by Won to-day they did a
Bunker fiill and Yorktown MT New 0eans at Monte
rev, and Buena Vista they did in every battle that has
immor,alized the fields that Americans have
Now regards this ssue OF hatred 10 foregnborn ct
ncns pass IL over with this single remark that can
never bear in mind this fact; When boasts
that be is naveborn American citizen, and derdes
other who is not nstveborn but who has the
rights of citizenship he has IL 70 that the
adopted citizen may well say to the natiTe-born, Why
sir you American by accident you born hers
and could not help H. J. sir an American by choice
L
And has been well said in other respects the only d
ference between fullgrown American citizen born here
and the other citizen who has here and been made
citizen Is that FAR this New World Soe OF
them into the world without any clothes on and the
other with his clothes Laughter and loud applause
Let thank God that there Is enough here for both
10 work In and continue clohe Themselves and to be
happy and prosperous

gree Of cducaonti Is amazing aozing that here in this
Commonv eslth two such sbsnrdes know-noibingism
and aboensm should take deeper than in other
part Of this country Why t2 Are religion and edu-
cation adverse 10 good government? DO religi,n and

missionaries n the guise Of ministers and sntsavery lee
iurers all the Common wealth who instead Of preach
ing the Bible preach politics instead Of preaching the
constitution preach dsunion instead OF preaching broth
