NATIyIS

There Is in this country great politi-
cal party Which, while pretending friend
ship for the foreign residents among US,
and while attempting to fix the ofiense of
Nativism upon the most illustrious citizen
of the Republic, earnestly contend for pol
icy directly hostile to the immigration Of
foreign artisans and laborers. And that
party calls itself Democratic and spreads
wide It's nets of hypocrisy and deceit to
sntrap voters of foreign birth
This, we say, is the true Native party,
and as such we hold it up to the condem-
nation of all men of generou, and truly
democratic sentiments.
The system of the Wing party is to
protect the industry of the country against
the competition Of foreign capital fattening
upon the toll of unhappy, starving aud
oppressed workmen. II is a system which
iayors and tends to increase immigration. 1t
says to the toiling millions in Germany and
1ItldUu OOlllC W lNuf ohA W. 'AAo'i
find constant employment and good wages,
and independence, and your labor shall be
protected against the power and the skill
of your present employers, seeking to
bring the earnings Of the workman In
every part of the world down 10 the mis-
terable rate they pay your brothers who
are forced by circumstances to remain
behind" The Wing system is to favor
the importation of men and families, and
to draw hither the ill-paid art and indus
try of Europe, and on this free soil to give
abundance and responsibility to those who
were there pauper- and victims of oppres
sion
But the pretended Demo crazy teach an
other system, which they baptise with the
oelusive name of Free Trade. They go
for surrendering American industry, I'M
guarded, to the destructive competition Of
the capitalists and employers of Europe.
They go for importing products ready
made, not the .kill and the hands to make
them. They go for buying always in the
cheapest market, and, that there may be
such a market, they sustain system whose
necessary result Is to keep artisans and
their famiIie, in Europe, working as slaves
and suffering the pangs of misery, and
starvation, and the curse Of ignorance and
brutality, In order that our democracy"
may buy merchandise at prices graduated
as nenr as possible on the starvation scale.
And this they call political economy and
commercial freedom 1t is one great dog
ma in their beautiful creed.
Such are these parties; the Wing de-
sircs to import men skillful to work, bring
ing with them and successfully prosecuting
here their respective branches of Industry,
and to diminish the importation Of maui
features the Democrat" desires to i'm
port cheap manufactures, made at starva
tion prices, and accordingly it is neces-
sary pant and consequence of his policy to
diminish the importation Of men and their
establishment as American citizens.
lrishmen and Germans, who have or will
have the right to vote Judge ye which is
the Naiiyist party Judge which Is at
tached TO narrow, wretched, anti Amer
lean, anti-Republican system Judge
whether Gen. Scott, who represents the
one, or Franklin Pierce, who represents
the other. is the Native candidate Be
not deceived by words, but look at facts.
