THE FOREIGN VOTE.

he powey in elections held by the
foreign born citizens of the United
States, is almost uncomfortable. The
contrast between the free institutions
Of America and the despotic laws OF
Europe have induced a large emigra-
ton to our shores. There are blu few
vino have not adopted this as their
country. Their affections, it is true,
cluster around the dear old Fatherland,
of the Mother country, but here
henceforth is their home, and with
he native born they unite in the free
mans prerogaiive. Yet with all this
there is a link which binds together
PEOPLE of the same nationality. They
are all Americans, yet the German is
AS distinctively German in his nature
and feelings, the IriShman as iInpul-
sive and true to his own blood, as
though each trod their native soil.

citizens they resent, and an Insult TO

honor of his native land. is regarded
by his fellows as a thing accused.
How then can 1t be expected that the
National Presidential ticket placed i'll
The field by the Republican party can
carry any considerable portion Of the
:oreign vote. Irishman remembertoO
v.el the indignity that was feaped
upon their race when Grant refused tp
appoint the son of the gallant francfs
Ncagher to a West Point cadetship,
that he might bestow 1t upon the negro
Smith. The petition presented by the
friends of young Mea.her had upon /:

The Union army,to go forth 10 struggle

and more paipahIe insult was never
offered to a people than was this to the
whole race of whites. and to, 1rishmen
IN particular. The memory of this is

A special to the Chicago Tribune, of

Cincinnati nominees will receive the
regular nomination of the Convention,
with scarcely any opposition. Thomas

John \. McClernand, of Illinois, will
most probably be the permanent
Chairman of the Convention. August

OF late years, the name of Democrat
has been = term of approbrium, and
even now is held, like the rod to a
naughty child, in terrorum over the
head of the Republican who dares to
express himself in favor OF Horace
Greeley for President and Gratz Brown
for Vice President, in preference to U.
). Grant and III. Wilson. If Repubii-
cans will take the pains to read the
platform adopted by the Cincinnati
Convention instead of listening to the
hackneyed arguments of the bread
II butter brigade, viz: that to kick
against the party is ruinous to repub-
llcan principles, they will find the
true>t republican doctrine %permeating
the whole platform. They will find
that the true principles of republican
institutions are developed in that
platform. And whilst reading it, let
them take into consideration thai IL
was framed by the Iruest men and the
best statesmen thai the present age
has produced. AT the same time let
them recullect that the Cincinnati
long before the meeting of the Phila
de!phIaC Convention, and by comparing
it with the one adopted at the latter
Convention, they will find it is as near
an imitation OF the Cincinnati platform
- the fraInersdared to adopt, without
the danger of being charged with the
Endorsement of the hated Greeley and
Brown policy. "A sinner converted
fromthe error of his ways is precious
in the eyes of the Lord" and if the
Democratic party its old issues being
dead and forgotten, in the true spirit
of JefiersOnian democracy, willingly
adopt such a platform and bind them
selves as a party TO be ruled by it. is
there N reason why the thousands
who left that party to join the Repub
lean or Union party tor the protection
and salvation of the country, should
now join hands with their erring but
Democratic brethren? We
think not. We believe the doctrines
enunciated in the Cincinnati plat
form true effersonian democracy. and
under such principles are we content
to live and TO die. We believe that
President Grant has been weighed in
the balance and found wanting. We
believe him to be a Dad Republican, a
bad President, and a bad man. We
know that he has been and is now
ruled by the agents of monopolies;
that he has been a plant tool in their
hands for valuable considerations. We
believe hat should he hold the reins
of government another term all the
good accomplished by. the Union Re
Publican party will be rendered suga>
and that civil war, anarchy, IA
pine and ultimate dissolution of the
Union will ensue.
