per instead of their own candidate, Mr. Franklin.


This much reminds me Of the common trick OF
detected robber who is always the first and the loud
est in the cry of stop thief" What, let me ask,
have the American Loco-Focos done for the Adopt
ed Citizens in the late election, which demands OF
them gratitude and future fidelity to The Tammanv
party Why, simply this 1000 native Loco-Fecos
stood by their candidate, (Mr. Coddington) while
5000 of them voted for the deadly enemies OF the
Adopted Citizens. To show this clearly, we have
only to look and see from where Mr.. Coddingtons
vote came.


American Loco Foccs. 4U1
American Catholic Wings. ?,A9
lrsh and German Democrats.


Total. 80


A few words more and | will clearly show lhnt
my position is correct, that 5000 native Locos voted
against the Adopted Citizens. 1t is well known
that the Wings, even in their most excited contests,
cannot draw out more than 1000 votes; 300 of
these stood by their candidate, Mr.. Franklin 800
more, as above stated, voted for MIR Coddington,
with the avowed object Of defeating, ut all hazards,
Alr. Harper, or rnther his party. This, then, lad
hitting that the Wings drew out their whole strength,
which arn prepared to show they did not, for many
Of them remained away from the polls in consequence
leave about $4,000 Wings who voted the Native
ticket. Where, then, would ask the Pebeian, did
the Natives get the remaining IL 500 votes which
they rolcd on Harpcrl He will not be foolish
enough to deny that ut least 5000 Of them were ma
tive-born Loce-Focos The other $500 being most
likely illegal votes got up for the occasion by the
Natives.


Now, Mr. Editor, indulge me so far as to allow
me to compare the conduct OF the two parties with
respect TO Natiyism.


More Than one-,enth Of the whole Whig vote heud-
ed (if report speaks ,ruel by such a true-hearted
American Wing as David Graham went over 10
their political opponents and voted for Mr. Codtling-
ton preferrng his election to that OF Whg, (t1ar
perl because that ifbg was at tile head OF an in
iolerabe party. Over five thousand more stood like
men TO their candidate, Mr. Franklu, knowing thai
defeat certain, but prcferring that defeat, with
all its notifications, TO triumph with ungeniu
associates Ofthe 5000 Wbigs who Yielded, all
and that " flesh is weak" That they acted wrongly
loolishly, and unworthy Of great and hieh-min5ed
party is III my opinion true, but they have not adj
ded TO their wrong doing the sin Of ingratu1e. No.
the Adopted Citizens bud never aided them 10 mamy
Il glorious and political triumphs as they had their
opponents. often and often. Look, thcn at the Lo-
coFocos; what motives must they have had TO IN
duce 1000 of them to the Native ticket? Could
it, let Inc ask, be any thing but deadly hatred o.;
the very men who had time alter linc, given them
victory BY their almost en- masse support!


Bur, it will he said that 1000 native Locos re-





zens. But, will insist upon looking into The mo-
lives which induced that 1000 To do So There are
about three hundred and seventy Offices in the gilt
of the Corporation with salaries varying from 1000
To 100 Dollars per annlm each. The Locos, after
their triumph last Spring, deult out about forty Of
these offices to Irish and German Adopted Citizens
but the salaries attached to these forty Offices
in no case higher than Six Hundred Dollars and
majority of them nre below Three Hundred.


The remaining offices, over 300 in number, includ-
ing all the higher salaries were dealt out to the M
tipe Locos Iftherc was no such thing as principle
involved in the late Election one would suppose
that these 800 Office -holders would have had person
al friends 10 the number of more than 1000 who
would have voted OH the side Of the Adopted CHI
zens and remained true TO their colors But The re-
suit speuks for llself.


And now. Adopted Citizens of New York, in gra-
titude to this hand of 1000 disinterested patriots
(who full in view of all they would lose Of spos by
not doing sol stood by your candidate MIR. Codding
ton vou must forget and forgive all your differences
with Tammany, and for ever remain true 10 her flag,
and in blind obedience TO all her dictates.


Yes, YOU must forget that he denounced and viii
fed Governor Seward, simply because he demanded
for you Justice and equal liberty with the other ct
zens of the Republic.


Yes, Catholics, You must forget that Levi ID.
Samm and Company heaped conlumely and abuse
on your excellent Bishop for the selt-same and no
other reason. Yes, YOU must forget that almost





the Tammany ticket for Office, has been defeated by
the treachery of the Naive in that party time
and again. Yes, you must forget that wherever this
Native party have triumphed to any extent, rs in
New Orleans, St. Louis md Philadelphia, II has
been led on by prominent Loco-fOcos, advocating
Nativism and Mr. Van Burens reelection 10 the
Presidency ut the same time. Yes, you must forget
all this and more. You are called on TO forget the
true interests OF Your adopted Country at the ap
preaching Presidential Election, and connect your
selves closely with this band OF lOU0 d1SHteresfed
patriots Tor so many of them as will remain with you
now that the spos are gomez and promote the cleo
ton of Martin Van Buren,.


In YOUR gratitude TO Loco-Focoism You must not
LET il weigh with YOU that Mr. Van Buren is an ad-
vocatc oil British Free Trade, although you may be
well convinced that Free Trade will bring ruin on
the working portion Of the community IN this your
adopted country and enable inc Ehshsi "ovSfh-
mrnt 10 triumph over the land OF your birth. You
must Danish from your minds (for otherwise You
would not be apt 10 work with zeal for the sue
ccss of LocoF Focoism) that, III all your intercourse
with Mr. Van Buren,, whether he was in office or
ont of office, he has treated you with codness and
has been non-cOmmtthat TO meanness. l might go
on and fl II page il | were TO enumerate The hall
which the Adopted Citizens must forget in once
more forming an unconditional nniOn with Talnma-
nv. But will not doso, as feel that have alrea-
dy wearied your patience.


And now, Mr. Editor, do not accuse me oil self
praise when sign myself


Yours truly OSE or TIE GLORIOUS FIVE THOUSAND.
