The native American., 1839-08-17

column Of twadlIe from the Savannah Georgian,
so destitute Of common sense, that we have here
,oloic considered them unworthy of reply.
How dare the boated demagouge Of the Globe
to assert that = Mr.. Peyton and his whig breh
rem la organized Native American Association
in New Orleans" when he knew nothing abou,
it? 1t was because his paper having circula-
ton Throughout The United States, he thought the
base vI~ ahood could never be successfully refucd;
ll we viii take care that the truth shall be known
throughout the country.
We can tell the over-grown pmp OF power OF
the Globe, that the Native American Association,
existed in New Orleans before Mr.. Peyton ever
saw that city, That few resolute patriots, who
saw with apprehension the tremendous increase
of foreign influence, and the rapid progress Of
foreign usurpation in the United States, through
the suicidal process of indiscrminate immigration
and naturalization, and who witnessed with deep
dlSmay the most horrible crimes transp splanted
from their European soils to our young, pure and
beautiful country, to take deep root and become
prolific here, where every citizen having voice
more or less potential in the government can the
more readily make his vicious or hostile propen-
sites, effective in percrng or overthrowing it.
For wears past have this liule band, prosecuted
and sugmaIized by foreigners, and sncored at and
ridicule bv their native countrymen Of both par
tcs,---tor wears past have they ayished their re-
sources, and employed their time and talents III
warning tier countrvmen Of the dangers which
threatened their blood bought institutions from in
Discriminate immigration and naturalization, and
a!lhl"al their warnings seemed like seed cast
upon a rock yet We're they silently and al
most impcrceptblv penetrating the minds and un-
dcrs;aA1ings Of the American people, until in the
tullncss Of time, portion Of the foreign popula-
ton. !arcving that they were sufficiently power
ilil in N"w Orleans to muzzle The press and sran-
Gle the liberty OF speech, undertook to punish
Air. P@vtnn for eondcninlng in strong language, an
attempt by foreign clannsh combination, to
c0NSiH1 Al innocent man--a Nutiue american,
to the tender mercies of the hangman.
Al H." next stated meeting OF the Native Amer
Ican Association, every native American, who felt
tie attempted aggression on his native his con-
stitutio1al rights, was invited to attend, and the
overwhelming array of noble spirits who respon-
dcl to the call, demonstrated that however care
less native Americans may have formerly appeared
to be, III relation to foreign aggressions and
usurpatons in the United States,- are yet
prepared 10 maintain their supremacy in their own
land ] he consequence was, that the Louisiana
Advertiser, the iorcigA mouth piece, which a few
days before recommended San Irish gathering,'
to punish Mr.. Peyton, finding that successful
outbreak had not yet arrived, now recommends
to lis countrymen suspension of hoslilities, and
submission to the laws.
Had hair of Mr. Peyton's head been injured,
the streets Of New Orleans would have flowed
with blood, for there were strong arms and keen
weapons ready to protect him.
Since that period the Native American cause
has swept over New Orleans, louisiana and
the adjoining States like an avalanche, and
is rapidly overrunning the western country.
Wings, Democrats and all, have felt the necessity
OF a repeal Of the naturalization laws, and pro-
lection from foreign combinations in our country.
The tmid no longer waver, and our btterest
opponents have become the warmest advocates of
the doctrines we have so long advocated; from
every quarter we can hear the glad tidings that
Our cause is progressing with unexampled and
triumphant rapidity and it will continue to pro-
grcss and triumph until the whole American peo-
pie will, with one unanimous shout, demand to-
tai end final repeal Of the naturalization laws
and Congress in obedience to the call, will erase
this ioV blot from the proud escutcheon of our
native land; indeed, we doubt not, that ere the
ensuing elections, we will be able from our num-
hcrs, without arrogance, to demand satisfactory
pledges or the subject, from the presidential can
did2tos.
All navc American editors i'll the United
Srtcs, Who arc friendly to the cause of truth and
opposed To lasehood, will please publish the above
,4I3r@s, q The Louisiana Native american
.2saociWio4 10 The citizens Of Louisiana and the
inhaJi'mhy Of the United Mates.-We received
a few days since pamphlet with the above title,
signed by large number of names, purporting
to be committee appointed to prepare and pub
lsh tie same. The object of the address and of
the Association, seems clearly to be, TO show tile
people that oar naturalization laws ought to be
repeated, and liat the admitting thus freely for
ci&ncfS D.! ali descr pons to all the privileges of
citizens i dangerous 10 the liberties and happy
institutions of our country. The article so far
as we h1yc examined it, appears TO be written in
a popular @ild natural strain, and well fitted to
accomplish The ends in view.
III relation to the policy and wisdom Of the Or
rHnIzatton, VIC lorhcar to speak, more especially
rs il is already subject Of rather free specula-
li0n among the conductors of our city press We
arc prepared however TO remark, that in our as,i-
nation foreigners who come to us from abroad
ra0 claim no other or higher rights, than protec-
ton in hgirlawiUl occupations under our cqnal and
cquabl" laws any claims to enjoyment of pub
Tic offices, or Of the elective franchise on their
