THE NATIVE AMERICAN.
From the Boston american.

THE WASHINGTON NATIVE AMERIcAN.-Ihis
newspaper, edited by Mr.. Brent, is fighting the
good cause of Native Americanism at the Seat OF
Government. 1t is conducted with unusual tall
ent and patriot spirit. Its editorials are written
in strain of high-minded integrity, which must
insure it respect if not success. The latter de-
sderatum, we rejoice to learn, is well cared for
by the Native American Association, which has
taken upon itself its entire support.
Not the least valuable portion of the Native
American is its Communications from correspon
dents, and we cannot forbear congratulating the
editor upon the fact. By the way, we perceive
by its columns that there are some g Boston :
boys located at the Capital. Will any of them
favor us with an occasional letter! We shall
take it kindly if they will Our temporary cor,
respondent of that place has removed to Balt,
more.

Messrs. Edifors-Suffer me to call your at
tention to project now entertained by portion
of our citizens. | refer to the formation of a
NatiUe american association, to be united as an
auxiliary society to the one now established in
Washington City. The great importance of such
societies is every day becoming more manifest,
and nothing is wanted in our city except some
one to commence it, to establish society that
will embrace among its members large majority
of our citizens. A NATIVE AMERICAN.
We would say to our correspondent that mea-
sures are about being taken for this commenda-
BILE object and we would inform citizens that
they will ere long be called upon to come for
ward and join the Native Americans of the Union
in their philanthropic cause. Notice will be given
in this and other papers Of preparatory meeting
for this purpose, soon as the proper arrange
ments can be made.

WASHINGTON, January l, 1888.
Mr.. EDIroR-Sir: see in your valuable pa
per of the 3Oth ult., "A Communication from a
correspondent signed "T,'' in relation to the
Clerks engaged in the American Patent Office in
this City, who are, the greater part Of them, for
eigners. Sir, | fully concur with him in his
opinions stated in his communication. | humbly
ask every American citizen if it is not shameful,
that our public offices of high trust should be
almost exclusively ruled by foreigners in the
place Of American citizens, when there are plen-
ty Of industrious and high-minded Americans
who could readily fill the offices Of trust!
But no: Government has got all, or at least
the greater part Of our public Offices, swarmed
with Scotch, Irish, Dutch, and French. Now
Sir, have no peculiar antipathy against foreign.
ers, but / like to see them in their right places
hope Congress will give speedy repeal o
the Naturalization Law.

Our Canadian neighbors in the Lower Province
are lowering their tone little of late. Instead of
threats to moose" and extirminate the universal
Yankee nation, we have now the proclamation Of
Lord Gosford cautioning his good and loyal sub
jects TO observe great forbearance towards their
brethren south of forty-fve. Whether this act
Of sovereign clemency is meant to extend to US
'rebellous patriots" or only to the "slgners' we
are not quite certain; but, taken IN connection with
the following letter from the Attorney General,
in reply to the st. Albans and Swanton resolution,
we can hardly doubt that the subjects of Her
youthful Majesty are actually "bent on peace."--

CARRIERS NEW YEAR SONG.
NATIVES, awake! too long you we slept ,
The Ice-God spans the stream,
And Ger the hills hear the wings
Of mornings golden beam.
Natives, awake! the Ne,U Pear s come,
With rosy face and sparkling eye:
Not to the sound of rafting drum,
But music in the sky!
There is no land he looks upon
He better loves than this,
Where mountains catch the early sun
And lakes receive his kiss.
Amid our fields he hears the song
Sung by our glorious sires.
When that they might redress wrong,
Lit up the battle fires.
We are the children of those men,
Sprung from the lineal race,
Who from the mountain and the glen
Looked Tyrants in the face.
No recreant blood flows in our veins,
No foreign sun llumes our land,
No foreign tongue pervades our strains:
We walk alooE-free, pure, and grand.
Natives by right, natives by birth,
We lift the song Of glory,
And knowing what our freedoms worth,
BY annals bright and CORY.
We as one people hail the day
That shines upon our homes,
And bless the New Years holy ray
That from yon heaven comes.
Like that bright ray that shines Afar
Der gladdened earth and human kind,
We hail the Natives morning star
That rises DER the mind.
Our flag is now upon the breeze,
Our fate is in our hand;
No longer on our recreant knees
We curse our father-land.
But with our faces to the sun,
We stand before the world,
With throbbing and high-hoping hearts
To see that flag unfurled.
There let it float forever high,
Its starry emblems bright and clear,
To kindle us to do or die!
For Home and Birth-right dear!!

The following are the remarks OF the NATIVE CIrI-
ZEN (of Brooklyn, New York; on the Presentment Of
the Grand Inquest Of the United States in and for the
Southern District Of New York. published in our last
NATURALIZATION LAWS.
| The following presentment was alluded to in
our last. We are glad to see even this step taken
towards securing the purity of our Elections. But
the evil is not to be reached by any such halfway
measure as taht indirectly suggested in this pre-
sentiment. Nothing short of total repeal of the
present law of Naturalization, or such modif-
cation of it as shall make the term Of probation
Of the foreigner equal to the entire period Of mi
norty of the native, bring any effectual reme-
dy. And even then we shall want the additional
guard of Registration Law. There can be no
doubt, that in Brooklyn and in Williamsburg
alone, at the late election, AT LEAST ONE
HUNDRED NATIVE AMERICANS WE'RE
WHOLLY DEPRIVED OF ONE OFTHEIR
|INALIENABLE AND MOST PRECIOUS
RIGHTS by foreigners; that is, their votes
were entirely neutralized by the votes of ALI
ENS.--not of foreigners legally naturalized, but
of foreigners illegally naturalized or not natural
lied at all! This lost the office of Sheriff to one
who, it is confidently believed, received ma
jority Of the legal votes of the County of Kings.
Our people are Justly indignant if they are
swindled out of any oftheir property. If a bank
neglects or refuses to redeem its notes--if taxes
are extraordinarily hight an embargo or tariff
law seem to be oppressive-there is want of
excitement or denunciation, if nothing more Sc
rious occurs. But when right, for the attain
ment Of which our fathers sacrificed both property
and life, is invaded--when that which alone
makes us freemen, and which ever should be
esteemed most sacred privilege, is assailed and
wrested from us, by the ignorant or vicious who
have fled to our shores,--it seems to produce no
anxiety, no alarm, scarcely moments attention.
Suppose the Legislature of New York should
pass an act to deprive one thousand of our cit-
zens of the right of suffrage; would so gross an
outrage be submitted tot Far from it, and yet
The native American., 1838-01-06

would such an act be greater violation OF right
than that these one thousand citizens should have
their suffrages neutralized-NULLFIED, by the
votes OF one thousand aliens! We think not;
and that there are more than this number OF
illegal votes given in at each election in this State
is fact which, it is believed, will not be con-
troverted. NE have no doubt that more than
1000 illegal votes are cast at each election in the
cities of New York and Brooklyn, without refer
ence to other parts of the State.
The Neac York .fDaerican, in publishing the
Presentment of the Grand Jury, published in the
Native American of last week, uses the follow
| ing language:
/ "With regard to the naturalization laws, we
have almost ceased to hope for any beneficial
change.
| politicians of all sides appear so apprehensive
of their popularity, from any effort to render the
name and privileges of an American citizen as
precious, and y guard them from abuse, as they
ought, that both those who are to the manor
born,' and those who have honestly been adopted
| to it, must be content to share their honored
name and lofty privileges, with every perjnred
outcast who may choose, by his own oath and
that of some equally worthless vagabond, to swear
himself in under existing laws.
ssYet we cannot but believe, if the case were
fairly laid before Congress, and the real senti-
ment of American citizens, native and lawfully
adopted, could be made known, that real popu-
larity would attend upon the effort to correct the
abuses of the law, and the administration of the
law as now habitually witnessed in this city, and
instances of which are so strikingly put forth in
the presentment to which we refer"
It is too true, ''that politicians Of all sides are
SO apprehensve of their popularity that they
fear to take the american side of the question
in relation to the Naturalization law. But there
are some honorable exceptions; and if such papers
as the american would but lend their influence
on every proper occasion, to enlighten public
opinion and to draw forth public expression, on
this subject, the politicians Of all Sides would
soon "be too apprehensive Of their popularity to
remain Indifferent to the success Of any and every
''effort to render the name and privileges of an
American citizen precious as they ought to be- !"
