ELECTIONS BY THE HOUSE.

THURSDAY, Dec. 6, 1888.
Mr. DRoMoooLE offered the following resolution:
Resolved, Thai the following be added to the
standing rules Of the House. to be inserted between
the 10Th and llth rules:
. In all cases of election by the House, the vote
shall be taken piua rOce"
This resolution, by reason Of lis proposing
change in The rules of the house, lies over one day.

luton heretofore offered by Mr.. Dromgoole;
And, after debate the yeas and NAYS we're called,
and resulted as follows yeas f26 nays s.
SO the resolution was adopted as standing rule
of the house
Very well. But it does not follow, we be-
lieve, that standing rule Of the last Congress
is binding upon this. We have yet to learn
that one House Of Representatives can
establish rules for the proceedings Of a
House in a subsequent Congress. Ii this be
so, we suppose that all succeeding Houses
will be bound by the acts Of their predecessors.
We, are radical enough to deny this.

free, and the home of the brave" The govern
ment founded in peril, reared in apprehension,
moulded in doubt, had acquired its full propor-
tlons, and now stands the citadciof Liberty. And
now, when all dangers are passed-when the hum
OF industry fills the land-and broad sails gladden.
the waters-lhc mountains have been brought low,
and the vallies cxated,-now, when we need no
aid, hordes are rushing in TO enjoy the blessings
we confer, and are striving 10 usurp, as they
|shamelessly assert, the supremacy of the land. =
Now, after the laps Of sxtythree years, we are
to~work out another revolution, and strive to be-
come INDEPENDENT.
The first number Of our little sheet is now before the

by its resstless influence it shall sweep away the suer
animated prejudices Of counymen, and the opposi
lien OF our countrys enemies, and from her proud
escutcheon the only bemsh which delaces it, and the
only germ Of destruction which halowed institutions
contain, viz: THE NATuRALlzATIoNLAW

and, so far as relates to immigrants, we believe
the maj ority of them are not of that church. The
English the Scotch, the Welsh, vast majority
of the Germans are, in religious sentiments, dia-
metrically opposed to the doctrines and authority
Of the church Of Rome. To overbalance this
large proportion of Protestant immigrants, we
turn, indeed, to the immense hordes Of Irish who
flock TO our land. But it must be remembered
that no nconsiderabc number Of those Irish
hordes are Protestants, who bring with them a
deeprooted aversion to Catholics, which has been
nurlured into bitterness by the fierce and unre-
enting warfare Of the sects, that has SO long ours
ed their unhappy country. Besides, were we SO
absurdly Anti -American in our desires and de-
signs, as to attempt TO keep down those OF par
licular religious class, we could scarcely wish TO
ed in numbers by the rest Of the community, and
whose increase, it is manifest is much slower
than the other divisions Of Christians.
We have been led to make these few observa-
tions at this time, from observing very objec-
tlonable sentence in an, otherwise, excellent art-
Gle, which we extracted last week from the La
fayette Gazette, and which, at the time of mark
ing the extract for our columns, escaped our no.
lce. Although acknowledge general con-
currence in the sentiments expressed by our CO.
temporary, we nevertheless feel it incumbent up
on US, III justice to ourselves and many of our
friends and supporters, to protest against the SEN
timent contained in the sentence referred to. On
the rolls Of the Native American Association Of
this city, we find the names Of many highly re-
spectacle members of the Catholic church. Men
who yield to none in ardent and Jealous devotion
TO our cause, and who march as boldly and fear
lessly under the Native American banner as any
be sincerely and ardently devoted to their church,
and, at the time, we bear witness to their un-
flnchng attachment to our principles. They
acknowledge, in the largest legitimate sense, the
fallibility of the church in matters of Caith; but
they spurn with scorn the charge that that ack-
nowledgemert tends in the slightest degree to af:
feet their civil or political independence While
they yield ready obedience to the head of their
church in all things strictly and purely ecclesias
tical, in all that concerns their temporal affairs

II the rest of mankind, enemies in war, in peace
9 friends
We hope that We now understood by friends
and foes. We know that we speak the sentimen
of our Association, and conform strictly to the
spirit of the glorious constitution of our country
when we soemnly deprecate any attempt to still
up religious contentious, which, soon or late, in
variably lead to religious persecution.

MPWe have. received communication detail

We continue to receive from New Orleans IN
formation Of the most cheering character. There
at least our frends-ihe friends of our cause, are
in earnest putting their shoulder TO the wheel, and
with united zeal, energy, and ability, moving on
ward. With all the high chivalry, and all the
ardent feeling which an object SO patriotic should
excite, they are calling upon the natacc cafaSens
to press upon Congress the importance OF that OBJ
;ect. and not to look back till it is fully accom-
pshed in the repeal of the laws of naturalization.
Tn the far west too, III Missouri, and Illinois,
the fire is beginning to kndle. And well may it
spread like the fires Of their own prairies. II we
look at the population pouring in upon them' aud
500 them-the inhabitants of distant lands, reared
under different laws, educated in different schools
with neither the theory nor the practice Of that re-
ouIated liberty, our boast, pride and sateguard,-
forming separate communities, speaking their Sc
yeral languages, teaching it in schools, keeping 1t
in its purity in their Justices offices, and IN their
pulpits-nourishin their prejudces, and entalllng
their nationaities on their children; II we look at
these things, and trace out their probable conse-
ouences: we wonder still more and more at the
indifference of the native citizens within whose
borders all these things are continually done.
We rarely open paper from that vast anu ief'
tile land waered by the tributaries OF the Mlssis-
spp. that we do not see daily illustrations OF the
dangers against which we have been warned by
the fathers of our government as likely to grow
ont of our laws Of naturalization. We see colo
Ill, Iop w
ther know, nor can be made TO understand the
laws under which they live, while they exercise
the right of making, and executing them. we
see them still segregated from the land OF then
adop,on-still distinct people-still cherlshlng
all the habits, and tastes, and feelings OF their 'a
,;ue Innd-still actively alive to its interests ano
looking back to it as their home, and poinuhg
tbe;r children to it with unmitgated iervor as the
close Of life begins 10 take from them the hope o.
rev;st;nu ;t-and vet we have these men to make
laws for us. True they have not yet the power
- do much harm-their number is yet too small
but they plant daily seeds of lrreverence lor ou'
holy bond of Union, and SOW broadcast socia
sneculations utterly destructive ol the principles
Of our government, and keep in active operation
interests and affections antagonist TO the iorma'io'
of distinctive national character they are
among us, vet noTof us. They may have liberty
on their lips, and visions of it in their minds
and the love of freedom in their hearts; but IT Is
NOT our liberty-it is not our freedom it is no
the great good of the many based upon the eter
nal and immutable truths lying at the foundation
ofour government. The former they know no
thing of-the latter are to them sealed oooks' a'e
