Origin Of Native America nism,

Since the Wings have attempted to throw
the responsibility Of the organization Of the
Native American party on the Democrats OF
New York and Philadrlphia, we have looked
into the history Of this party with some care,
and find that the charge is utterly destitute OF
| truth.-Although Nativeism had its votaries fol-
many years before that time, il never assumed a
formidable organization until 43 and a.. Gen
Scott says he entertained Native American
views as early as the spring Of 1885. In 1910,
by the aid ftwo friends, he drew up his cele.
brated appeal tor the organization Of Native
American party pto that time there had
been no organization, or Gen. SCOTS address
| would have been unnecessary. There had been
| no Organization perfected in 184l, when the
General wrote his celebrated letter 10 Reid, for
he there advises as to names, Gc.--Then, we
hold that the evidence is conclusive that this
party, having for it's object the exclusion o. for.
eigners, had it's origin under the lead and avee
OF Gen. Wienfeld Scott. When third parties
are formed they always afford resting place
for the political laggards, who fall behind in
their respective parties. That renegades from
the Democratic party may have sought res
ting place at the half way house Of Nativeism,
we admit. But that such organization ever had
the countenarce aud support of the democratic
party, or numbered among its votaries any con.
siderable numbers, or men Of influence, of the
Democratic party, is utterly untrue. Gen.
Henry H. Dearborn, who was the prime mover
of the party and ito acknowledged leader at
Boston was well known Wing. James Har-
per, the only Native American, ever elected
Mayor Of New York, was originally a Wing
In 1874 the Natives elected to Congress, from
the City Of New York and Brooklyn, four
members Of Congress, William w. Campbell,
William 8 Miller, T. M. Woodruff, and Henry
Seamen These gentlemen were all original
Wing and since the disruption Of the Native
party in New York, they, together with Mayor
Harper, have gone back TO their first love whig-
gerry. At the same election in Philadelphia CT
ty and county, two Natives ~. elected to
Congress, Lewis G. Levin and John Fl. Camp.

All will remember the celebrated letters and
speeches of WIN. 8. Archer, the Wing Senator
from Virginia, in favor Of Nativeism No one
will doubt his Whiggery. He was a member
fthe recent wing convention, and was en-.
trusted with the secret, and private correspon-
dence of Gen. Scott. Now we challenge the
wing party to give the name of single infl,en

THE FLOWERET OF LOVE.
Behold yon gaudy painted flower,
Gay, blushing to the morning rays
1t sprang and blossomed in an hour,
With nights chill blast its bloom decays;
Yet thoughtless maidens as they rose,
Mistake and call this howereet love.
But loves true flower before it springs,
Deep in the breast its fiber shoots,
Then clasps the heart and round it clings,
And fastens by thousand roots,
Then bids its strengthened tendrils climb,
And braves the chilling blast of time.

To hare q Good H0rse-Itis not sufficient to
have good colt, the product of superior mare
with stallion of good blood and established
reputation. This is necessary but it is not all that
IS necessary. A most promising colt, that at
tracts universal admiration while it follows the
mare, may be grown into an almost worthless
horse. How, then, having good beginning,
shall we grow good horse-for good horses
alone are profitable to raise? By exercising the
greatest care in their management until they
have ceased to be colts. Many ruin, almost, a
colt the first winter by starvaton-by turning it
into the yard to with the young cattle, to pick
est and coarsest food. There is, on the other
hand, no one season of its life when care, and
good full feeding Of appropriate food, will tell
so much for good as this same first winter. A
friend who, for now many years, has annually
sold two or three young horses at the highest
market prices, has often assured us that at no
time in the life of his colts did he take so good
care of them and feed them better than during
their first winter; and that by the effect produ-
ced upon them the first year he could tell what
kind of horses they would become. There is
something SO absurd in scanting the supply of
nourishment to young growing animal! Some
fancy that such course will render the animal
hardy The only effect produced upon the grow
ing animal by an insufficient nutrition, is to
hinder his best development. Wait until he has
attained his growth, and then stint him, if you
choose. 1t can be done then with less injury.
Colts are often put to hard work at too young
an age. 1t not unfrequently happens that you
will see horse of five years with all the wear
and tear of ten in his appearance. This should
never be. The exercise of the same judgment
In the management of colts most used towards
children, would prevent this
Colts should be put to exercise and training
at an early age, and may do light labor to adj
vantage, but to put upon four years the labor
proper only for six or seven years, has been the
ruin of many a promising animal. There are
other suggestions that occur properly in this
connection, but we will omit them, considering
the two mentioned above as the most important

DEATH OF TIE ROSE.

There's gloom in the gardens,
A wall in the sigh
Of the zephyr that passes
In murmuring by;
And the bowers are dropping,
Their pale leaflets wear
The semblance of sorrow,
The hues of despair;
For the star of their circle,
The queen of their sphere,
Is laid by the winter winds
Pale on her bier!
