TIE senior editor of the Democratic
Guard, finding that he has got into bad
company, cndoavors to justify himself by
trying TO make his readers believe that we
did Mr.. Trcvcllick great injustice and
misroprcscntcd him. lie docs not deny,
However, that Mr.. Us argument was in
favor Of "a division ofpropcrty on Saturday
night, feast and riot on the Sabbath and
nothing left on Monday" MS we have sta
tcd but asks the following question. "Whcn
you Mr.. dmcrican admit yourself that
many wofkingmen have been led into this
movcnont,' pray, will you tell us what
motive influenced them, since You charge
their leader rs using for his argument n
division, feast and riot on the Sabbath,
&c,' if, in your mind, it was not q love for
such condition Of things"
As the senior editor has always been
Democrat he is better qualified TO Judge
what has influenced many to join the Or
der than We are. The people generally,
have seen enough b. the late New York
riots TO convince them why the Irish Catho-
Hes nrc SO favorable to the union, and why
the order is principally composed of that
class of laboring men, who arc in league
with the Tammany Ring of New York
city, in whose services Mr.. Trcvcllck is
now travelling to induce the unwary to Join
them toget control of the National Finances
ns soon as the money in the New York
city Treasury becomes exhausted. We
find too, that Germans, Welsh, English,
and others who have been duped into this
movement of the Irish Catholics. When
they find the deception making itself poll
cal organization, then they leave the order
in disgust; but We have not found any of
the Irish to leave them yet. Had the cd-
tor Of the Guard attempted to show that
Mr.. Trcvcllick really had been working
man, or any of the leaders been men who
are not of his stamp, who hate to work,
but are drones upon the working classes,
by constantly pushing themselves into po-
sitiOns to do the "bossing" and let the poor
men do the labor, and they receive the
cream, his argument would had some force.
We admit that the Republican party
will not receive the support of the Union
through out, particularly the Irish Catholics,
who have always been advocates of the
principles of modern Democracy, opposed
to labor themselves, uulcss 1t is to prevent
them from starvation.
In regard to the charge that he is q mem
Der of the Union lie says that it is ''ihlsc and
absurd" We thought the editor would
be asharcd Of it, and deny his conncc-
ton. This shows that there is something
wrong, and that he joined the Union fol
the express purpose of securing the Union
vote for Associate Judge. Tho members
Messrs. Pat Hester, Holster and Gala
CHER, who were so fearful that he would
deceive tn, m, on Thursday evening pre-
vious to tho primary election, when 4 mes
sage was sent to them that lc could no
be there that night, rs he had promised to
TO join the Union, will not like this present
denial of his membership. But as the sen
ior was punctual on the Friday following
und they took him in under fair promises
this little denial will be overlooked ut pre-
sent, and as Mr., Trcyelick said they wcr
all sworn together 10 support all who wer
connected with them, they will very rcadi
lv vote for the Associate Judge, on accoun
Of his son. AS thcy gave him the nomiua
tiOn by fraud they cannot well go back ol
that, for il is the only source from whicl
they can expect iayors.
