knew nothing aboutit? 1t was because hi:
paper having a circulation throughout the
United States, he thought the base false.
hood could never be successfully refuted--
but we win take care that the truth shall be
known throughout the country.
We can tell the over-gfown pimp of pow
er Of the Globe, that the Native American
Association. existed in New Orleans before
Mr.. Peyton ever saw that city.-That a few
resolute patriots, who saw with apprehen.
sion the tremendous increase Of foreign in
Huence and the rapid foreign usurpation in
the United States, through the suicidal pro
cess Of indiscriminate immigration and ma
turaliZation, and who witnessed with deep
dismay the most horrible crimes transplant
ted from their European soils TO our young,
pure and beautiful country, to take deep
root and become prolific here, where every
citizen, havinga voice more or less poten-
tial in the government can the more readily
make his vicious or hostile propensities, eff
tective in perverting or oyerthrowingit.
For years past have the little band, pre-
scented and stigmatized by foreigners, and
sneered at and ridiculed by their native
countrymen ofboth parties,--for years past
have they lavished their resources, and en-
ployed their time and talents in warning
their countrymen Of the dangers which
threatened their blood bought institutions
from indiscriminate immigration and natu-
ralization, and although their warning seem
ed like seed cast upon a rock, yet were
they silently and almost imperceptibly pene-
trating the minds and understanding Of the
American people, until in the fitness of
time, a portion of the foreign population,
fancying that they were sufficiently power
full in New Orleans to muzzlc the press and
strangle the liberty of speech, undertook to
punish Mr.. Peyten, for condemning in strong
language, an attempt by foreign clannish
combination, to consign an innocent MN;
nGtire American to the tender mercies of
the hangman.
At the next stated meeting of the Native |
American Association, every native Amer-
can, who felt the attempted aggression on
his native; his constitutional rights, was in
Vited to attend, and the overwhelming ar
ray ofnoble spirits who responded to the call,
demonstrated that however careless native
Americans may have formerly appeared to
be, in relation to foreign aggression and
usurpations in the United States, they are
yet prepared to maintain their supremacy in
their own land.
The consequence was, that the Louisiana
the foreign mouth-peice, which
a few days before recommended San Irish
to punish Mr.. Peyton, finding
that the time for a successful outbreak had
not yet arrived, now recommends TO its
suspension of hostilities, and
a submission to the laws.
Had hair Of Mr.. Peyton's head been in
iured, the streets of New Orleans would
have flowed with blood, for there were strong
arms and keen weapons ready to protect
aim.
Since that period the native Americana
cause has swept over New Orleans, Lousi-
ina, and the adjoining states like an ava
anche land is rapidly oyerunning the western
country. Wings, Democrats, and all, have
cit the necessity of repeal of the natural
cation laws, and projections from foreign :
in our country.
The timid no longer waver, and our bit |
crest opponents have become the warmest
dVocates the doctrines we have so long c
dvocated; and from every quarter we hear
he glad tiding that our cause is progressing l
With unexampled and triumphant rapidity; |
land it will continue to progress and tr-
mph until the whole American people will, :
nth one unanimous shout, demand total =
nd final repeal of the naturalization laws; +
nd Congress, in obedience to the call, will d
rase this foul blot from the proud escutch- L
on of our native land; indeed, we doubt t
OF, that ere the ensuing elections, we will t
e able from our numbers, without arrogance b
0 demand satisfactory pledges on the sub r
sct, from the presidential candidates. F.
