AN ASSOCIATION OF NATIVE AMERICANS,
VMJ H. have reached an important crisis In our pe-
Wv 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.

Protective Tariff for the sake of protection which
once divided parties and distracted National Coun
cls has become obsolete, as question of party policy
simply because "reUehue tarif" affords incidental
protection to American Manufactures. modifca-

protection to American Industry.
Ihe dtSt'i6us0n OF the proceeds OF the public lands
among the several States as formerly claimed by one
party and the Gppcation OF those proceeds solely in
ald OF the national Treasury as claimed by the other
party have both yielded to compromise of these CEN

differed at different times, has now bscome less ques

manded by the spirit OF the age and the true interests
OF the country:

different times the two prominent parties OF the coun

hitherto rival parties shall maintain their respective
