THE PRINCIPLES OF THE REPEAL PARTY
THEIR JUsrlCE-THE NECESSITY OF TIER
PRACTICAL APPLICATION TO THE SECUR,
ITY OF OUR COUNTRY.
Perhaps in the daily discussion of the views
and motives which influence the Repeal Party
it would lot be amiss to recur frequently to
-" first principles"
1t has been urged against us that we were
selfish, narrow-mlndrd and bigoted--that we
were disposed to invade the sacred prerogatves
with which our country has invested naturaiized
citizens, &c.
How does these charges tally with the real
motives which actuate us /?
We believe sincerely that the processes of in.
discriminate Immigration and naturalization arc
calculated to impair the moral tone OF society in
our country, to iower the standard Of the Amer
can people, and in time to endanger the lutesrty
OF our instructions.
We petition Congress to repeal the naturaii-
cation laws, leaving it to the wisdom of that
body to establish such protective provisions as
will preserve our country from the curse OF IA
large unrepresenled population.
We do not ask Congress to make those changes
without mature elaboration, nor is it to be sup
posed that the assembled wisdom of the nation
would act With pfeciptanry in the accomplish
ment OF change of SO important a portion OF
the former policy Of our Government.
We do not expect nor desire that Congress
should suddenly cut off, by hasty legislation, the
immense humber OF foreigners now in the United
States from the rights of citizenship, and leave
a door open for the future cIamoIous ou;ciies OF
DISCONTINUED thousands, who, let the causes be
what they may would as, err that a prospect OF
bee oning American citizens was the only allure.
ment which sctuced them hither.
We W uid not have our Government subjected
to the charge OF injustice, hover unfoundcd.
Under this view of the case we have from
time to time Proclaimed, and we now repeat it,
that We are only DESTROYS that Congress should
repeal the naturalization laws with such quail.

OF naturalization and INN q alton be closed
FOREVER.
Is tins unjust, have foreigners any right 10
object TO it?
1t is frequently asserted that our country does
not possess the power to exclude foreigners from
settling in the United States. This arrogant
assertion is but one item of the many presump-
tuous opinions which are daily proclaimed by
those who have sought the muni6cence of our
country and are now disposed TO manifest their
contempt.
1t would almost appear puerile to enter into
an argument TO demonstrate that our Government
POSSESSES conservative powers, which she can at
any time array, to protect herself from any dan
ger with which she may be threatened, from any
quarter.
1t has been asserted, that in the event Of our
Government passing law to prohibit the in
gress Of foreigners from any nation with which
we we've bound by the same "trealles as the
most favored n4tious," that those treaties would
be held I'D TO our country as the basis of future
difficulties
But s',pposing our country were apprised that
a colony Of the 8 Thugs Of India" were about to
emigrsAe to the United States? would the ex-
istenc.e of treaties between Great Britain, whose
subjects they are, and the United States, pro-
hlhit our country from passing protective provis-
iols to secure the American people from these
scientific assassins No man can doubt it for an
inst ant.
What would be the consequence of their set
dement, III America The annual assassination
Of IA few hundreds or thousands of our citizens!
But when we ask our Government to protect us
from millions of beings who, by political com
binaton, aided BY foreign despotic influence,
may overthrow our institutions and entail slave
ry on our posterity,-we are told that our Gov
eminent has no right to pass laws to protect US
from usurpation by the sub ects of those nations
with which we have established amicable reIa-
tons!
Have our treaties with foreign nations stipu-
lated that Sc cret acts of treason againts Gov
by tire subjects OF those nations, not
punishable by the institution of protective laws.
Common sense replies in the negative
30 long as orr country possesses a claim to
rational charac 'er. so long we are not ony at
liberty, but bound BY every principle of justice
nd proprirty to establish protective laws for the
preservation of our nationality.
