TO The Editors Of tie PenHSyl1dnian
GENTIEMES THE undersigned who is one
of the plain citizens OF your city, and does moi
desire 10 be identified with any political or
party eycitements, takes the liberty Of addres-
sing 10 YOU this note on a subject somewhat
conneced with politics, and the rights of o
large class Of onr fellow citizens. His reasons
for doing this are that he has understood that
bis name IS pretty well known among that
class, and thai patty now seeking power is
attempting, by the use of his name, and 9th
erwise, 10 obtain their vote in this Stale.
The Fremont Clubs Of New York, have
rensontto believe, have their agents now at
Wofas ls..S,.s, The Welch, German, nd others
Of the 70 cal ed fofejgn citizens, disseminating
documents, holding private and public meet
ings, and delivering set speeches all over the
State, in order TO induce them 10 vote theu
ticket. Pei nsysania is now considered the
Test or Keystone State. lis vote il is thought
will decide the contest, aad the balance OF
power it is contended, is in the hands of The
"foreign vote"
| With these views, I as defendant OF the
Welch people, have been invited to use my
Influence TO induce them 10 vote for Fremont.
Now, sir, my reply 10 .hese gentlemen was,
| freedom TO the negro in tbe South, in proper
way, but ! think that freedom should first be
Obtained fer my cohntrymen, white men, in
the North. II appears 10 me TO be a superla-
tive stretch of philanthropy, for persons TO 60
all the way 10 the Southern States 10 secure
the liberty of the African, when il is well
known that no foreigner has any freedom in
the North.

/ ton Of Mr.. Fremont, cannot take place with
out the combination of tie FreeSol with The
4 Know Nothing vote. Tho combination is alb
soutely necessary. Whbt is the result p
/ Fremont is elected by the union of two par
ties. The Know Nothing would disfranchise
land can do it 10 great eStent,) his brother,
The foreigner. The instant power was placed
in his hands, bis intereS would lead him tc
turn on his fellbw voteb and, while freeing
the black, wou . disgrace, dishonor and des
troy, POLITICALLY and socially,) the white free
voting foreigner of the NORTH. Besides, The
party which advocates MI Fremont Tor The
Presidency, is Strictly sectional party and
never can be national party, except by Q
rupture Of the Union, which no honest foreign
er will or does desire. No, Sir, tie foreigner
looks upon the country and its Inhabitants as
a whole, not in representation OF on ephem.
eral party. Hd worships at the altar OF the
Constitution, and will never descend 10
: meaner place Of alteration. Eternal and i'm
:, mutable law, is what pleases him, and IL:
sway, withou: tyranny and party influence, i
what briass hia, 70 this eoul one, 5then

there are said 10 be 25, 900 votes, not 10 be ca
) joed by the party which is foreign TO then
and native 10 The Know NothiDgs. Let then
: vote in solid pholonx for Jbmes Buchanan.--
In the language Of Rufus Choale, one Of ou
: noblect statesmen, "tle has large ezpere1c,
: in public affairs, his commanding capacity
; universally acknowledged; his life is withou
: o stain" mlght add more on this subject
and show the folly OF any foreigner voting 70
either OF the candidates but Mr.. Buchanan
+ but lime will MOI permit.
