HoTe we see them taking new ground from that un-
der John Adams. In his day they wanted to disGaus
chse you from uOtng. In Tie Hartford Convention
they declared that naiuraized citizen should ever
hold Office in the u S. But the Democracy then as in
1900 rallied to the defence Of their country, aud pit
down these Hartford Convention Federapts, and their
monstrous doclrinss. From igt lime ill within two
years, the Fsderasis undertook to pass oaws against
the adopted cizens, but they lost no opportunity to
rdcule you and traduce you. A hundred times over
they said you incapable Of Governing yoursslses
called you "loaers" "brutes'' "'paupers," Gc., and
MaihewL DAVIS, IA leading federal editor in NJ York
who now supports Clay,) went far 10 say II he'

appont hsgN Office but wings. They cand-
dates on their tickets ba, wings. The Native Mayor
of New York Is a Clay Wing The "Native candidates
for mayor and Congressman in Philadelphia are strong

them as such. But there is more proof Senator Al

presented petitions in the Senate to carry out the ma,
