THE INVASION OF CANADA WAS THE MOST GIGANTIC
swIEDLE OF OUR TINE THREE CHEERS FOR
JUDAS IsCARI0r!
He never tried to sell out the Irish to the
Dead Dog Party Three cheers for Catilinel
He never tined to sell the Irish to that revolu-
tionary junto that burned the Ursullne Convent,
rode Catholic priests on rail- and broke into
Catholic churches. Three cheers for Benedict
Arnold He never offered the Irish vote to a
now.Nothing Congressman, or Thad. Stevens,
dlsunionist, for neutrality-suspicious.
man ofpotaeh!
Three cheers for Thomas D,Arcv McGee, the
meanest of renegade Irishmen. He never was
mean enough to try and charm the Irish vote
over the negro suffrage Styx. These dlstin-
euished radicals have placed me under oblga-
tions for never having asked the IRISH to vote
the negro as their equal
OVERHEARD WITH THE RADICALS AND UP WITH THE
NATIONAL UNION MEN.
Sir Roche Boyle thanked bis God that he had
country to sell. Even Crom we'll was disguised
when a reward was offered for some one to turn
the spit when he ordered the Mayor OF Drog-
heda to be roasted, to see an Irishman offer his
services for the cooking execution. Surely these
fought, or bled, or died. A cry IS going over the
land that the Irish Senators are selling out the
Irish. Tis time 10 stop the slander. l know
Roberts. Did he not introduce me, as Presi-
dent OF the Fenian Senate, when addressed that
great Fenian Congress at Philadelphia? How elo-
quent his words read now J ! know Gibbons,
of Philadelphia. Did he not speak burning
words of love for Ireland that memorable night
when the Academy of Music had 600 Fenian
centres on the stage? ? l know Fitzgerald of
Cincinnati. Did he not write me letter worthy
OF a sheridan or Burkey know Scanlan, OF
Chicago. Has any Fenlan song been written so
iull OF fire as that of his !? / know Morrison,
and DAILY, and Carey, and all these Senatorial
chiefs, and do not believe that they would
traffic with the honest patriotism of an Irish
heart.
If these gentlemen are seen much in the COM
pary OF Colfax and Boutwell,, and other radical
Congressman, rest assured it is to get them COM
mitted to policy that will heap Goals of fire on
the head and tail OF England.
know Meehan, the Irish editor; he surely
knows his countrymen too well TO act the
Thomas Darcy McGee against Andrew johnson
the long tried.triend of Ireland and IrIshmen.
DOWN WITH THE RADICALS AND UP WITH THE
NATIONAL UNION MEN.
An Irisbman hates negro and snake. Three
cheers TOR the snake for is he not nobler thing
than the leader who would dare to barter away
the Irish vote to the natural enemy of her race?
A leader who would trife with our Irishmens
patriotism should be shot at sight. God bless
The Irish-they are not my kith or kindred; but
they are as dear to me as my own blood. Pos
sessing often more heart than head, this impul-
sive people are sometimes led into quagmires
| by scamps who make bids for promotion over
the graves of their countrymen.
THE INVASION OF CANADA WAS THE MOST GIGANTIC
sTINDLE OF OUR TIME.
Money had been paid, and something must be
| done. Hence raid on the Canadian border,
not for action, but effect. O'Neill was honest,
| and Spear, and Sweeney. Surely those who
| gave the orders from atar off we're equally so.
Irishmen, nave ever deceived you? Look

| on the brain, had Irishman on the brain.
| Twenty years 1 have stood almost alone by your
| wonderful race and marvellous people Have
l ever courted your votes? Would ] ever

| exerted himself Tor the liberation of John
| Mitchell? l did, Who gave him his liberty?
| The man some OF you have gone back on
Andrew Johnson.
Who made the speech in London on the
Downfall of England" before the Saint
Campo Bello raid? did. Who addressed

| nationality did. Did l not snow you the
madness of the Canadian raid? Did not eau

Irishmen II you shall stand by me as l have

| franchise? Will you create million of black
| votes, and place them in the hands Of the radi-
Gals to use against the Catholics when the negro
war is over? Did not Paine propose and Bou:-
well threaten revolution? Have we not had
blood enough split for the Africans? How that
Calcutta Cholera song, among the dead officers
in the mess-room, rings in my ears:-
| So fill up your glasses steady,
| This world IS word Of lies
Here is q cup TO the dead already,
And hurrah for the next that dies.
The Copperhead, Rebel, disloyal. disunjon
Club of Fifteen, led by the taro-table chettain
of Congress, has made a bid for your votes.
Don't be swindled. Irish votes cannot be bought
and sold. There is the mistake our people have
made. But Irishmen have been before, and
may again be deceived by their so-called leaders.
Let them try it this time, aud curse will
blacken their political life forever.
What curse themS Ay, from every stone;
On the green sward of history
Should gusn the awful monotone
That tells their mOnstrous MANY
Curse themy Why, every mountain peak
Should find a tongue to damn lhelr name;
The hills should hear the valleys shrek
| Their mmoTtalties OF shame;
| Each broOket, in its winding course,
| Should babble its VndictiVe curse
A detected burglar cries, Stop thef!-so some
of these disappointed men strive to turn the
Irish wrath against the President, TO save
| themselves from being torn limb from limb by
those who have swindled them out of their
hard earned gains.
You have one friend in this country who
never sneered at your race-never called you,
as the radicals do, id lrlshmen. That man
Is the head centre of constitutional liberty In
this grand Old land of ours-Andrew johnson,
of Tennessee-a name you have cheered with
me before hundred audiences.
Whotought almost sinele-handed, that gigantic
conspiracy against the Know-NothtngsY Andrew
| Johnson.
Who made that eloquent speech In defense of
the Catholics, against Clingman? Andrew
Johnson.
