 Oar nationality is shs brightest spc. n the char srputation abEosd; 1t has raised sP aud sas,nined our in.ilatiens at home; 1t has taught us to know and protect eisIi and religious rights; 1t has given 10 as. As a nation, our unprecedented great ness and prosperity, and made the name of AMERICAN to ba feared by kags, beloved by republicans, and respected by all the world.
 Ia what does it consIst7 Not surely in say pecu. liari,y of Iangusge manner dress for. since the United States became the asylum ior the oppressed aud dOws-trOddsn of all nations, never perhaps be- fore wsrs thers assembled together under the same laws and h The same country. so seemingly incon- graous variety of men. women, and children of every tongue aud every cline. Here, we may find daily journals published In all the known languages and characters from the liqaId tones of Italy to the half formed letters of the Cherokee. In our large ctics we hnd cafes and restaurants if transported from the streets of Paris; ioy-shoPs, where, from the attentive salesman to the jointed dolls in the window. every thing is German; hotels. where we may dine af,sr the fasbcn of any people of Europe plays. in German; operas, in Italian; and concerts in French; native productions from the Baltic, fruits from the tropics fish from the frozen ocean, stuffed mermaids from Feeges Islands, and orna- ments from the celestial empire. In the newest settlements of our western wilds, we find a live Yankee from the green hills of Vermont, sturdy Dutchu,an from the sluggish canals of Holland, an elastic Frenchman, whining out his native pstois, and fresh caught Pat lander. just from he bogs of his own Emerald Isle, all living clever neighbors together. 1t is, however, our American nationality that binds all these apparently ncODssteus particles ln one great whole. This forces them to act tn concert and heaves the breast of this many assemblage with the same emotions, and makes them proud of their country and it's free instltu- ,ions It Is the spirit of republicansn; the desire for progress and reform the anxiety to find out, and the respect for the rights of in all the in tricate relations of society," the appreciation of the maxim. '.the greatest good for the greatest num- ber;" the attempt to accommodate laws to the wants and necessities of the governed and the i'm provements aud progress Of the age; the energy,
 the enterprise. the ardent love of liberty and po- cal reform whenever the circumstances of the coun- try require it, animating the whole as one common principle of life. breaking down all dis functions of language, habit. and society. and bind ing sil--high aud low. rich aud poor-in one bond of brotherhood, for one common purpose and one common weai. It is this that constitutes our ua. tionaity; it Is this that should ever be cherished and preserved the surety of the stability aud well fare of our government and its institutions.
 The political party which makes these objects the end and aim of all their measures, which adopts for its principles the great truths apon which our na- tionaty is based is the party of the country is the natisnGf party.
 The question is then for the people "Under which king. Bezonian"i Under which banner will you enlist1 The party which, through fraud. in uigue. the viIest hypocrisy and proaigate de- ception. has mslead the people and attained the supreme power in the Union1 The party which
 hates oafAes prescription, yet, in spite of pledges and promises, merit and fidelity, has prescribed mos, incOnsiderateIy and unmercfuIIy' The party that would sacrifice the interests of the whole con federacy to the grasping avarice of few iron-mon gers of Peunsylssnial The party tha, discounts nanees the patriotic efforts of the millions s,rug- gling to be free, and offers "aid aud comfort" to crowned tyrantsi The party that is attempting to break down the tariff under which the country has prospered, to secure the influence of the nabob manufaciurerso Of New Eug lana; to revive the Ma tiona Bank. by whose brief existence the whole aafa md ta k.ek possible to the ages of prmeva dark and super stition! The party that has as many aliases Pro- teus had shapss that lit the torch of trsorous in cendiarism at the bae-lights of the Hartford con venton; paraded under the name of Federalists, skuked beneath the appellation of ,eaigs deceived the people as the no-party party; triumphed over truth and justice Tayloriies, and fnsy have de- cared themselves rafioes and free soiers7
 Or will the confidence of the people be given to the true republican party, the national party that ever has been and will be denaoeratie party that has the interests of lhe whole Union at heari that has striven to egisIais for the greatest good to the greatest number;" that has always ad- vocated the reform of the abuses of government; and, acting upon the principle that the people the,n- selves the best judges of what Is most to their interest, that the 'sober second thought'' of the people Is ever right. has always eRdeavored to &C., comodaie It's to the progress of the nation and the actual necessities of it's various partsf The lime is not very far distant when you will be called upon 10 make an election; choose ye then which ye shall serve"
