Not very well... America is historically Anti-Catholic so when thousands of Irish, who are traditionally Catholic, began pouring into cities like Boston and New York many nativists (well as of the past century or so) were worried and disgusted. There were many sterotypes made of the Irish such as they were drunks, swearing, pugnacious, and barbarous but above all because they were Catholic they were thought to be more devoted to the Pope than to America. They also worked for cheap on things such as the Erie Canal and construction which further made people think of them as peasants. The fear of imigration, especially that of the Irish, led to nativist politcal parties such as the Know Nothings. On the whole Catholics in general were treated badly and churches were often burned down or attacked but the Irish especially were looked down upon as sub-human and immoral.
The Irish was the largest immigrant group in the 1800s and they were generally treated poorly. Later immigrant groups were treated the same way as the Irish immigrants of the early 1800s.

In the nineteenth century, in the US, many immigrants were treated badly. This was especially true for Irish immigrants. One large reason that they were mistreated was the fact that most of them were Catholics. The Protestant majority in the US despised and feared Catholics. Later on, Chinese immigrants were also treated badly.

No, it was better. Irish immigrants had rights and freedoms in America, when they previously did not in their home country.

The Irish
The Irish came to America on ships as immigrants in the late 1800's. Most of the Irish immigrants came to attain religious freedom, find jobs, and have a better chance and a new start in America.
It was hard for the Irish in America because they were neglected for their accents and jobs with signs saying "Irish no need apply."
Both the Irish and the Chinese immigrants helped to build the railroads in America.
As immigrants, the Irish Catholics were treated very badly. Employment ads began to contain the phrase, "Irish need not apply." This was because they were Catholics The Protestants did not like them because of centuries of religious wars.
