THE RADICALS AND FoREIGNER,

Mr.. Ferry, the Radical SENATOR from
Connecticut in II speech a few days since
thus explained the defeat of the Radical
party in the late election in that State.
He said ...
The vote of the Republicans was larger
than that Of last wear. The Democratic
vote was increased by the naturalized vote.
Owing to this cause the Republicans always
had hard battle 10 fight They must win
aecessions of Americans reared in their
schools and ChuFches, while The igaorance
and eupTsf.Gon Of the Old World are poured
into NE ranks Of The party auth which has col
league auds proud to AFFILIATE"
There is little doubt that the leaders
Of the Radical party entertain an antipa.
thy to foreigners. 1t is a lineal descend
ans of the old black-cockade Federal
party that passed the alien and sedition
laws Of 1873. and Is now endeavoring to
convert this free democratic republic into
lust such a one as the monOcrats of that
day preferred If it dared, it would
dislranchise foreigners, and render
them incapable of exercising any
political right. They would willingly
exchange the ignorance and supersti-
ton of the negro trained in Radical
leagues. for what they call the Ignorance
and superstition of Germans and Irish,
which, in thesir hands is rather an indie
pendent and intractable sort of thing.
They are 50 full of loyalty that they
suspect every foreigner of entertaining
more OF less of lingering attachment To
the land o,f his birth, and this is to be
little less han Rebel They would as
this Conn ecticut Radical SAYS willingly
give the pr eference to Americans reared
in their schools and churches, that a

COME HOME FATHER.

Father, dear Father, come home with me now
The clock in the steeple strikes one;,
You said you were coming home from the shop
As soon as your days work was done,
Our fire has gone out, our house IS so eoio'
And mothers been watching since tea
With Door brother Bonnie so SICK IL. hef arms
And no one to help her bat nae.
CHoRus-Come home, come. come home'
Please father. come home,
Hear the sweet voice of the child
Which the night winds repeat as they roam
OH who could resist this most plantive prayer!
Please father, dear, father, come home.
Father, dear father. come home with me now.
The clock in the steeple strikes two; -.
The night has grown colder and Bonnie is worse.
But he has been watching for you;
Indeed he is worse, Ma says he will die
Perhaps before morning shall dawn;
And this 10 the message he sent me to bring,
Come quickly or he will be gone
Come home. come home, come home.
Please father, dear father, come home.
Father, dear father, come home with me now,
The clock in the steeple strikes three.
The house is SO lonely. the hours are SO long
To poor weeping Mother and me;
Yes, we are alone; poor Bonnie is dead
And gone with the Angels of Light.
And these were the very last words that he said
Il want to kiss Papa good night
Come home. come home, come home,
Please father, 'dear father, come home.
