THE INDANs.-There have been risings of
the Indians against the whites, In several places,
much about the same time-in Yucatan, in some
parts of Mexico, in Texas, in La Platte, in the
Northwestern Territory, in Oregon, and as was
reported, few days ago, in Wisconsin Territory.
In several of these places they have committed
fearful ravages Yucatan is by this time, it is pro-
bable, entirely in their power; the settlement of
the Mormons, on Salt Lake, is said to have been
cut of, and in Oregon their excuses have been
frightful.
There must surely be some concert and plan In
this simultaneous action. There must be some
Tecumseh moving. If this be the case, we may
look out for trouble, and the red men may
boast of their revolutions as well as the white men.
The wild Indian is now revolutionizing, as we'll
as the polished Partisan.

that we have already published news from the cit

ORIGIN OF NATIvIsM.-Our contemporary, the
Tribune, in its political ucubrations states, that
the native excitement originated in 1874, among
the locofocos in this city, in consequence OF the
unequal distribution of the municipal Offices.
We believe the Tribune makes gross blunder
in thus assigning the origin of the natives in this
city. Their real origin took place in different
quarter year before that if we are not mis-
taken, meeting took place in Carroll Hall, in
this city, at which Bishop Hughes made splendid
speech relative to the school system, and advocst-
ed distinct organization, party, OF the Irish
voters of this metropolis, in order to accomplish
the particular measure they had In view. We
believe this attempt, which was partially
successful at the time, was the first ever
made in this country to organise the natural
Used citizens of foreign birth, on such narrow
ground, for the purpose of operating on the election
of any candidate, IN this country 1t certainly was
the first distinct political movement of such cha
racter, in which holy bishop of the Catholic
church made his appearance, delivered an eloquent
speech, and took part in political agitation, so
different and so opposite to his duties as clergy
man, as naturalized citizen, and as good man.
This singularand extraordinary attempt to organize
the Irish citizens was the foundation of the native
excitement in New York, because it furnished an
opportunity to those who hated and execrated
the Irish voters to organize and form party, by
way of counteracting the movement at Carroll
Hail. The results of this movement are well
known The riots in Philadelphia, the burning OF
two Catholic churches, and the violence of those
days, may all be traced to their legitimate and ma
tural origin, the meeting in Carroll Hall, and the
importance given to it by the splendid and elo-
quent speech delivered by Bishop Hughes, of the
holy Catholic church.
This was the real origin of the native American
excitement; and any attempt to give any other ORR
gin to it, is attempt to fasify history, and to
publish untruth, when al the world knows the
contrary.

be matter of little difficulty to decide on the ques-
ton OF announcing myself candidate to represent

their determination in the premises. cannot now
say with certainty, that will, or will not be can

advocacy OF principles that meet my views would
