| mont 1.-THE Irish Citizens Aroused.
NEW YORK, August 81, 1859.
To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD.
| ] believe the HERALD has frequently illustrated
that antipathy to Mr.. August Belmont, as Chairman
| Of the National Democratic Committee, Is . thing
which has found its way to the Irish brain.
There can be no doubt Of it, The antipathy II
there; and It mas made Judgement which Is quit'
| too deep to De easily destroyed.
The Irish citizens have first right to move in th
matter They are democrats Of an ardent nature
they constitute 30 immense part Of the democracy
that without them that power could never win an
| election; and they always look on O defeat OF the
| party as triumph Of political misfortune over
| themselves.
| The Irish citizens are perpetual democrats. The
| Germans change their coats; the native Americans
| 90 SO very often. The Irish always keep the
| ancient color. Had their fellow citizens, both ma
tive and Gsthic been true to political conviction
i as they have been there had been no civil war.
The greatness Of America Is IN an Intangible tic

constitute for the democracy both bone and muscle.
When Mr.. August Belmont was made national
chairman the Irish citizens, every place, through the
| press, threw up their hands in establishment The!
had never before heard Of him but as Belgian banke
having an once in the city OF New York Why sucf
man was made their political leader, In Presl
dental campaign too, was an act for which thel
had no understanding. The appointment annoyed
them, irritated them, disguised them, insuted
| detection and they foretold for 1t with accuracy
winch cannot be questioned now overwhelming
disaster at the polls. They accepted the appoint
| ment. That Is true But the acceptance was per
meated with sullenDess and bad grace, and only for
the granite 1rmness OF their political nature thel
| would have bolted from 1t In body.
The last straw Is now on the back of the patient
camel. That stupid act OF misjudgment was com
! menced when the second campaign was entrusted
to the foreign brokers' hands They who suppose
that the camel will bear Its load to the end OF the
| journey in 1872 are blind In their intelects.
The bolt is commenced. 1t ID three years ahead o.
time; but, the Irish citizens refuse 10 carry
| the foreign panker . bngle minute LONGER. 1nel
| have already flung him from their backs into the
ditch. They are determined. as they have the right,
for they are chief strength OF the democracy
| win IN 1872. II there are any managers who shal
attempt to rein back the Irish citizens to recarry the
foreign banker they will find themselves ditch com
| paniOns with their idol.
No one can blame the irish citizens for having
taken this decided attitude Look at the characte
| of the man imposed upon them. He is q mere Bel
ginn banker; he is as fastidiously arstocrstc a!
