NATIVE. .AMERICANISM,
PROOF OF ITS ORIGIN.

EROOp VI IL ~ ONANAAN
We have hitherto expressed our belief that Native
Amercansm and that the whig party cherished it with
all the love which their fathers bore it. For this honest
expression we have been denounced as liar. We
ground our assertion upon the following testimony:
The Alien laws of the Elder Adams
The resolution of the Hartford Convention.
The petitions presented by John Quincy Adams,
praying that the time before which man should not be
naturalized, might be extended 10 twentyone years.
The declaration OF Mr.. Archer, whig Senator from
Virginia that he would make every effort TO secure the
passage OF such alaw;
The charge Of Horace Greeley, made in April last,
that the fact OF the wings supporting the Native Ameri
can ticket would render the defeat Of the whig ticket
certain.
We made the charge, because,
James Watson Webb said that Greeley himself had
voted the Native American ticket
Because William L. Stone, another whig editor OF
New York, was candidate for Office on the Native
ticket;
Because Mr.. Clay endeavoredto deprive foreigners
of pre-emption rights;
Because COL jack Levin, and others, who addressed
the Native meeting in Philadelphia previous to the out
breaks which drenche The streets of that city in the
blood other Citizens are personally known to ourselves
as whgs Jack having been twice before the whig party
of his district as candidate for congressional nomi
nation;
Because 10000 wings in the city Of New York voted
| the Native ticket.
Because a whig member of Congress- Mr.. Wethered
orMd, insnlted Mr. Owen of Indiana, and told himhe
had no business to speak the tariff question, because
he was but nauralized citizen; s
| Because there is not one democratic statesman who
has not expressed his utter adherence their measures
Upon this testimony iorthe truth Of all which w
pledge our honor and the most of which opponents
DARE not deny, we ground our charge. 1t is true, ant
il our statements be correct what shall be thought
those who so wuy persist in falsehood and so mali
ciousy sander those who are bold enough TO speak tn
truth We challange those who have branded us as
liar, 10 read the evidence we have cited before hei
Club. Lethem read the Hartford ConVe Tesolu
ltion the Alien law Of the elder Adams, and compar
them with The projects of the Native Americans Le
theIlithe inquire what connection their leaders hay
with these movements, and we ask nothing more to cor
vict them of the very crime they have charged upo
u.s.
! And Me do most distinctly and emphaically Chars
this Native Amcrcanism upon them. To lhcslit b,
longs, andupon the heads Of the whig leaders, in Ne
York and PHILADELPHIA must rest the awful conscque
ccs which have marked lis nhuman progress.

tion oftestimony adduced in proofof the guilt of the
great embodiment relNctlanHy agreed to unite with
Mr.. Lawrence in letter 10 Mr. Clay. .,s ri
The letter was accordingly written, properly directed
and mailed on the same evening Of the discussion
Four WEEKS haze elapsed and not one pOrd from Mr.
Clay in anSacer
Does any rejecting mind want stronger evidence OF
the criminal conduct OF Mr. Clay, in that most deesta-
bic conspiracy by which the American people were de-
Tauded out of their choice for President? Certainly
not. .rt
Permission is asked of him 10 publish letter said 10
have been written by him 10 Mr. Blair and which, il is
said, fully establishes his guilt This he refuses. He
dare not do it.
If Mr. Clay is innocent and il there is no such letter
in existence or il there is and contains nothing impl
eating him, why in The name OF common honesty does
he not give permission to have published and thereby
put to rest this chargel The truth is evden he knows
that letter condemns him out of his own mouth
Our word fer It, Mr. Clay will never consent to have
that letter published. We call the particular attention
OF Mr.. Wharton ofthe signers to the following let
ter and editor oil the Wheeling Times, to the fact that
Henry Clay refuses tn answer. Will the Times pub
ish this letter. and inform his readers why Mr.. Clay is
silent upon subject Of so much importance? We
shall see.
Here is the letter. and -FOUR weeks have elapsed and

= EDucArIoN--The different productions Of sell, the
different temperature of climate the different influences
Of religion and Government the different degrees Of pto.
ciency in arts and Sciences and the different dispose
tons or it may be talents ofindiyduals require us to
pursue different methods in the instruction Of YOUTH
But the general principles of education are the same OF
nearly SO in all ages and In all times. They are fixed
unalterably in the natural and moral constitution Of
man. They are of the same kind in the fierce African,
in the sluggish Greenahdef and the more enlightened
and polished inhabitants Of the temperate Zone They
are to be found in our affections and passions some Of
which must be controlled and some cherished in every
state Of morals and under every form of society.

Two Dollars a Day and Roast Beef,

In the year eighteen and forty,
"a The song Of the promised reliet
Which was sung 10 the poor by the naughty,
Was 1.-TWO dollars day and Roast beef"
Then the banners were flying and streaming,
To reason the people were deaf
They went through the universe screaming,
"Two dollars day and roast beef"
Medals, sashes, and badges now flourish'd,
With portraits betokening grief '-
The wearers hop'd they should be nourishd
With 1.-TWO dollars day and roast beef"
The woodchuck, the skunk, and the coon too,
And the Fox, that inveterate thiei
Lent their skins 10 the wings with this tune, loo,
1.-TWO dollars a day and roast beef"
They swiggd and they guzzld hard cider,
In masses beyond all belief, -
Mid the fumes their mouths opened wider,
1.-TWO dollars day and roast beef"
The pledges were broken, truth was baush'd,
Where now was the promised relieR
The dream of two dollars had vanishd,
And also the hope Of "roast beet
The>medals are gone; and the banners,
Log Cabins are struck en- a reef
The masons have ceased their hozzahnas,
For ''two dollars day and roast beef"
We will now ask the workies one question,
And we promise them it shall be brief
Have you ever yet hurt your digestion
BY eating of cash or "roast beef" 90.

ANlIOWA COURT.

iowa Is now the finest frontier country in the West
and is settling up very fast Judge Williams related 10
me some amusing that he Witnessed when he
first started on his circuit for the purpose OF organizing
and holding his first courts among the rude frontier peo
pie. In many counties they had not had time even to
erect any Kind Of shelter for court house. The best
provision which could be made was to form seats of
logs beneath the shade Of large tree, with raised
seat near its body for the Judge. The Sheriff would
open court by mounting stump or mound near BY
and crying "Oh yeS! Oh ycs" etc., announcing to the
whole universe that the court was then opened and in
viting all who had business 10 attend The Clerk sat on
block Of wood, and used shngle on his knee for
1esk Ailel the Grand Jury were empanneled and
charged by the jude they sent in care ofthe Sher
if 10 large hollow Or ravine in which they could sit
in conclave beyond the view Of the Court Of spectators
A small hollow or ravne was appropriated to use of
the Petit jury The grass grew very tall in the neigh
borhood and if the Jury men lay down in i they could
still more perfectly exclude themselves from oil servattn
The, Jue said that one day after having charged the
Grand Jury and dismissed them 10 their quarters in the
large hol6w tall raw-boned lre Yankee looking man
with hat in hand, addressed him as follows "May ii
please your honor, wish to speak to youl:" Order,
sir what is it, "Judge continued hc with The utmos
gravity, is it right for fellows 10 snake it in the grassl
"How2 what is that, sirl" "why, you see said the
Yankee, "there's some fellows who's tarnel afraid the
grand Jury will find something agin 'em, which they
desarve and they are shaking up TO the grand Jury
their bellies in the grass, kind of trying TO hear what
the Jury are talking about" No" responded the Judge,
With as much gravity as he could command n do not
allow Of Shaking. Here, Mr.. Sheriff go and station
a guard around each Jurys hollOw, and il man is
found shaking have him brought before me- ard will
cause him to be punished Indeed; if this Shaking is

To show the justice Of partial tariff legislation, etus
suppose that Congress at its next session, in Consdera
tion Of the present prosperity oil manufacturing arising
from the Tariff or42 should pass law, declaring that
manufacturers should pay the farmers 81 bushel for
their wheat Could they not afford to do this, and make
money too2 But what would the manufacturers say2
Would they not denounce it, as an outrage and most
attrocous interference with their business, and most
properly too? -.
But let them come nearer home, and though it may
not be so papable after an investigation they may find
that Congress had already previously passed law
which poured its thousands dollars into their pockets

men under the banner of the whig party now come be-
fore the country and ask the farmers sustain that law
