AN ASSOCIATION OF NATIVE AMERICANS.
"E have reached an important crisis In our po-
w hticll history. The two leading parties in our
country hitherto separated by broad lines either Of
principle Or q policy differ now scarcely in any thing
A National Bank, formerly an essential point Of diff
ference between rival parties has s0so no advocates
PyytScti0e 1drw for the sake Of protection which
parties and distracted National Coun-
ellis has become Obsolete as question Of party policy
simply bscdsss "ssceRus tarifn affords Incidental
protection to Ainericsn yManuGctures. A m0difica-
ton Of the details Of present tariff system ID all
that " demanded by the most strenuous advocates Of
protection 70 American Industry.
The distbtioa Of the proceeds Of the public lands
among the several States as formerly clamed by one
party, and the ppoaos Of those proceeds solely in
AID Of the natiena Treasury, claimed by the CHER
hictng opinions far ct least to sinh these qaes-
tons as sssues between Whigs and DemOcrats plan
formed OF compound Of "squatter sovereignty OF
graduation and Of surrender 70 the States" In
which they lie, seems likely to withdraw the public
lands from the arena Of future party contests.
The mspsSpAnsnt of Aar6os and rices BY congress
sonal sid, on which political parties have hitherto
differed at different times has now become less ques
ton Of principle than Of local and sectional contest
and Il will doubtless be adjusted by the next Com
gress upon that basis of hberality and justice de-
manded by the spirit of the age and the true interests
OF the country. & 4ss
different tes the two prominent parties OF the coun
try disagreed, have nowby change Of ofcrcumstances
become obsolete. What then remain AZ issues OF
any theoretical or practical between Wings
hitherto rival parties shall maintain their respective
organizations they will do 80 for the mere sake of the
spOils of p0Dsrf III
But new issues have arisen, having no reference to
the party organizations Of WhiQs and Democrats
issues which are vastly important in their bearing
upon the future welfare of the country--and which
issues must IN their discussion progress, and tern
nation snnhate these two parties, which, for years
past have battled with alternate success for political
supremacy
new era Is at hand.-an era which will be char
acerzed in the future history of these States the
ERA OF pAraIoTIsn! Throughout the length and
breadth Of this great and glorious Union the masses Of
the American people have spontaneously and simuta-
neously started the inquiry" ARE NOT AMERICANS
