would protect citizens of foreign
birth, when abroad, Secretary Cass

1t has been the usage Of the gov
ernmeut, since its origin, to place
naturalized citizens on an equality
with native citizens, and extend to
them the came protection both a,
home and abroad. Indeed this has
been claimed for foreigners after
they had declared their intentions.
and before thoy were admitted to
citizenship in full. While the De.
mocracy are trying to bring the con
dition Of blacks in Massachusetts, in
contrast with that Of foreigners, W.
find this Democratic Administration
placing adopted citizens in a worse
condition than the despised colored
man OF the nation; for while the lat,
ter were refused passports on techni
cal grounds, when they wished t.
visit foreign countries, they had the
assurance OF protection from the gov
eminent.
The Democracy thus discriminate
between native and naturalized citi.
zens, granting to one rights that ar,
refused to the other. The Repub
hcans. in their platform, claim fo
''citizens, native and naturalized
liberty Of conscience and equality o.
rigAss;' and oppose all discrimin
alton between these classes. Sucl
