Nov, sir, if you are the impartial Editor, the
honest politician and upright man you are set
down for, you will, as an act of justice to party
you have SO unfairly and unjustifably assailed,
please publish the following ONLY AUTHORITATIVE
lD TauE sentiment and principle entertained by
he American Party in relation to Religion and
Church, which will afford your readers fair,
fall and honest means of judging whether or no
aAe a. r. Party is BASED on an unmistakable
tendency to dabble in the bitter paterS Of secta-

Catholic Church is tho object Of Tie Natirc

aThere is one subject composing part OF The
principles OF this Party, on account OF which they
are most anxious to extend the time Of naturalza-
ion. We aluds to the subject Of PAPAcr.
awhile this party disclams holding any more
hostile feelings toward that system OF Christian
Faith az such, than toward Professionalism, still we
are frank 10 confess, that judging from the past his
tory Of that Church in all ages of tho European
world and from the evidences Of its character ana
purpose already exhibited in The United STATES,
Ilst The least OF which was an ACT by the Legsla-
,ure Of this State-passed by The order and under
The dctation of the Catholics of this City to expel
he Bible from our Common Scho0is,) that we are
distrustul of the baneiul Influence it may yet exer
over the politics of this country Ii is not 10 be de-
nied that the Roman Catholic system of religion is
nmical 10 Political liberty and il must also be adj
med that 10 all The nations OF Europe, where Papacy
has been the predominant religion OF the State, tho
Church has always assumed the whole direction
and control OF the government. Ii has ever claimed
and exercised the right Of being, at one and the
same tine the religious, civil and political govern
ment Of thu people.
eff this be so,-and Il, too it IS the proud boss,
OF this Church that her principles, policy and pur-
pose hare are and roih Be EVER THE sAME,-and
i, also, Tie most superficial observer can look back
among The nations of the Old Wcrld and see i9GO-
rance, cice, and supsrs.itioa the peculiar chorac-
terisucs Of those people who have been crushed by
the iron heel q; her despotism, and who are sull
bending under the heavy hand OF her Reie ious OPP
preston, is il not our boun3en duty 10 use every
possible means that shall tend to protect our own
hsppy country from the whitening embrace Of her
bsneul influence?
"Itis because large majority of the emigrants
TO shor-s from Catholic couutries) are the ig-
norant superslitous excrescent population OF those
natoDs, all OF whom acknowledge their highest OBJ
legations 10 line rope aud their Church, and all obe-

Naturalization Laws as shall, III some degree, III
kus project institutions from the dlrefui inHu'
ence vi the Rulnish ChrrcD, aud our Elections from
the control Of Catholic Bishops
"We again e,urha,ically oeclare-aud hope TO be
30 Understood by both FRIEND and FoE-that we
sd political party, entertained no uniriendly ieei'
ngs whatever Tow ards the Catholic Church, as a
religious institution disconnected ,eita tie Pofttics
q our country; nor, indeed, against any o'hel
church when does not seek an alliance with mat
srs Of State; while at the came time, we are al
open hostility with ANY and ALL Religious Church
"a, Sects, and Denominations, OF whatever name
Or character, that shall III any manner and tor an5
purpose, interfere with the political institutions c
ourland.
at II be said that our acts accord not with ou
words,-'or we have only las yeil assaulted uit
Catholic Church. our reply simply end breti Is
that, il is that Church only which has, as YET, si'et
EVIDENCE OF serious interference with our civil pol
ny and of design, ultimately, 10 control our poiit
zeal Institutions. And add, with the same regare
Tor Our counrys good, that if any other sect or de-
nomination of Christians shall clearly evnce In.
ZANE design of incorporating ecciesiasucat tyranny
with the government OF this country, rs we tSinl
hs Catholics have, we shall as earnestly and un-
SoSpromisingy oppose the one as we do tne DINER
Our hostility prescription, opposition, ant
intoleratioa for such are the heresies with which
We are charged, withal, ,-extend alike 10 any ant
ALL Churches ard Sects, and that, too just lar al
ey or any OF them interfere with the civil or pot
zeal matters of our CITY, State, or General Govern
ment; but no flrtser-No FARTHER. Are We rtght
or are We tcr0ag?"
Remarks.
We have given our correspondent his column
and he is welcome to what he can make of it
We shall not stop to chop logic with him, as tt
What is end what is not blending of Religious
haireds with Politics. We judge all parties b,
their acts and their unguarded betrayals of senti
nent, far more than by their professions and lhei
!abored maniiestoes for Buncombe.' Tested b,
these, all parties are faultless. Edr. Tribune.
