How dare the bloated demagogue OF III
Globe 10 assert that "Mr. Peyton and his Whi(
brethren had organized a native American as
ISOLATION 10 New Orleans" when he knew moth
\ ing about il? 1t was because his paper, having
a circulation Throughout, the United States, he
thought the base fasehoo1 could never be
successfully refuted; but we will take care
that the truth shall be known throughout the
country.
We can tell the oycr-grown pimp Of power
OF the Globe, that the Native American Associ.
alton, existed in New Orleans before Mr. Pey-
ton ever saw that city. That a few resoIute
patriots, who saw with apprehension the tire.
menjous increase Of foreign influence, and the
rapid progress of foreign usurpalion in the Uni.
ted States, through the suicidal process ofindis-
crimnate immigration and ralization, and
who witnessed with deep dsmay the most nor.
ribe crimes transplanted from their European
soils to our young, pure and beautiful country,
to take deep root and become profchere, where
every citizen, having voice more or less pc.
tentlal in the government can the more oddly
make his vicious or hostile propenslties, eiec
tive IN preventing or oyerthrowing il.
For oars past have this little band, persecu-
ted anYtigmatlzed by foreigners, and sneercd
at and rldiculed by their native countrymcn Of
both parlies,-ior years past have they lavish
cd their resources, and employed their time and
talents in warning their counlrymen of the dan
gers which threatened their blood bought insl-
tutions from indlscrimlnale immigration and
matt raization, and although their warningsI
seemed like seed cast upon a rock, yet were
they silently and almost imperceptiby penetra-
ting the minds and understandings Of IheI
American people, until in the fitness Of time, a !
portion of the foreign population, lancyin5 lhatI
they were sufficiently powerful in New Orleans
to muz2le the press and strange the liberty of
speech, undertook 10 punish Mr. Peyton, for
in strong language, an attempt by |
a foreign clannish combination, to consign an in
locent man-A Natire american, to the tender
nercies Of the hangman
At the next stated meeting of the Native 4
American Association, every native American,

hey are yet prepared to maintain their supre-
macy in their own land. The consequence
vas, that the Louisiana Advertiser, the foreign
louthPiece, which a few days before recon-
lended ian Irish Gathering to punish Mr..
eyton, finding that the time for a successful
utbrcak had not yet arrived, now recommends
} Its countrymen a suspension OF hoslIilics, :
nd submission to the laws.
Had hair Of Mr. Peyton's head been injured, +

Since that period the Native American cause
