AN ASSOCIATION OF NATIVE AMERICANS.
"JE have reached an important crisis In our pc
w litical history. The two leading parties IN our
country hitherto separated by broad lines either Of
principle or policy, differ now scarcely in any thing
but in names.
National Bas1, formerly an essential point Of diff
ference between rival parties, has advocates.
Protectire Tariff for the sake of protection, which
once divided parties and distracted National Coun-
Oils has become obsolete as question Of party policy,
protection to American Manufactures. A modifca-
ton OF the details of present tariff system is all
that Is demanded by the most strenuous advocates Of
protection to American Industry.
The distribution of the proceeds Of the public lands
among the several States as formerly claimed by
party and the application of those proceeds solely in
aid OF the national Treasury, claimed by the other
party have both yielded to compromise of these CEN
ictng opinions, 80 far at least IS to sink these ques-
tions as issues between Wings and Democrats plan
formed Of a compound of "squatter sovereignty" Of
graduation, and of surrender TO the States" in
which they Ie seems likely to withdraw the public
lands from the arena Of future party contests
The Improvement of h0rJo,s and yioas BY congress
siona aid 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 It will doubtless be adjusted by the next Con-
gress, upon that basis Of liberaty and justice de-
manded by the spirit Of the age and the true interests
Of the country
Other questions, of minor importance, on which, at
different times, the two prominent parties of the
try disagreed have now by change circumstances
become obsolete. What then, remain as issues of
and Demecratsf We know of none; and if these
hitherto rival parties shall maintain their respective
organizations they will do for the mere sake of the
spoiLs of poaoer!
the party organizations Of Wings and Deniocrats-
issues which nre vastly important in their bearing
upon the future welfare Of the ceuntry-and which
issues must in their discussion progress and termi-
nation, annihilate these two parties, which, for years
past have bated with alternate success for political
supremacy.
A new cru 10 OF hand-an era which will be char
acterzed in the future history of these States the
ERA OF PArRIoTIsN! Throughout the length and
breadth Of this great and glorious Union, the Of
the American people have spontaneously and simulta
neously started the inquiry" ARs NOT ANERIcANs
