The receipt of a pamphlet, " stitched in blue," purporting to be an “Address from the Natlvo American Association of Louisiana, to the cititcns of the United States," has caused u* to reflect on tho subject of the Naturalization Laws. The democracy of tho United Stutes, nearly to a man, hail tho approach of natives, of other »limes to our shores, and adopt them os brothers of their own. The Aristocracy, although loving every gewgaw, or vain trapping, for lordly equipages, a fleet to scorn and ccntetnn tho hardy tiller of tho soil, who Is driven by oppression to this happy land, or who, from choice, selects it ns his future homo—tho dwelling—tho grave, of himself and his posterity. , Sinco tho days of tho older Adams, alien and sedi tion laws have been a favorite themo with tho olignr- chists of America. It has been tho rock on which their fondest hopes havo boon split, over and over again—and their mad and illiberal dosiros scattered by tho wind of freedom on tho sen of anarchy and discontent. It is futed to bo so again! In tho work boforo us tho most preposterous, and Anti-American doctrines uro promulgated—the most unblushing assertions made, by men, who them* solves h ivc not a whit more interest in the Const i- tion, than those thoy would exclude. Native Americans! Why, Black Hawk or Tecumskr—Oseola, or Alhoator have, or had, much better claims to this exclusive natno than Mr. Dalik Peyton, or Mr. WioatKTON, member*, or Colonel Christy, tho President of this new Asso ciation, which presumes to amend the Constitution, and drive all foreigners from the land! Native Americans!! Soventy years have not posted away sinco wo became a nation, and could uso the proud name of American chitons—and tho men that accomplished tho liberty of our country, and emancipated it from foreign thraldom, nover clogged thnt enviable distinction by tho epithet tia- the—no, thoy left that for the " wise men” of Now Orleans, who arrogato to themselves the right of revising tho Naturalisation Laws. Native Americans!!! Who was Washington, ^ tho savior of his country—tho instrument of Divinn Providence fur a mighty purpose t Who, wo ask again, was this great man—who commanded tho rospoct and admiration of his enemies, and who was, indeed, “ the first among men t" Georok Wash ikotoN, was tho great grandson of an English country gentleman. Ho first drew breath on tho banks of the Potomnc, and in his unrly days ho was called a Virginian. It is true his ancestors lived in Virginia, for three generations;.hut will any mnn take it upon himself to say, that Washington would not havo been us brave, as wise, ns good, hnd lio been born in the country of his ancestors, and emigrated hither, as ho was through all his life 1 Certainly not. Did ke ever make any distinction between tho braves thnt surrounded hint, and whn flocked to his standard from tranxnilnntic climes I Nover! Hu knew the tamper of their Idados, and that tho foreign arm was us ready to strike for tho freedom of America, as thoso of her own sons. Native Americans!!! 1 Who wore tho ollicors to whom the immortal Washington,confided somo of the most hazardous enterprises during the Revo lutionary war 1 To Steobkn—to Stiuuso—to Lakaybttx. Yet thorn brave men, whoso blood was shed in accomplishing tho freedom of this country—in giving birth to thnt lilmrty which this pseudo Amur icon Association would dosecrato— those bravo mon, according to native American dog. mas, bad no right to unshoath their swords—to at tempt to free America,. until thoy wore twenty-one years in Ike country ! Oh, absurdity! Oh, non sense ! Thy numo is tho Native American Asso ciation—and thy homo is Now Orleans! f Notice Americans!!! ! ! In tho hour of trial, was there n man in tho camp of Washington more ready to do his duty, than ho, who loving freedom with his wliolo heart, evun braved tho dangers of a voyage across tho broad Atlantic, to intermingle in the strife ? No.—When tho fata of this great na tion was decided by tho over memorable Declare- ration of Independence, tho nnmo of Mathew Thornton, a foreigner, shono as conspicuous os that of any oilier of the Conscript Fathers. When all might havo becu lost by treachery—who was it sold his country—who wns tho traitor/ Benedict Arnold, a native Ainorican citisen— one a ho would bo all perfect in the accident of his birth, for all tho purposes of the Native American Association of Louisiana. We have said, however, nearly enough. It is evident, from the production before us, that it is a work which will destroy itself. It is a tissuo of abuse—a catalogue of calumny, and a string of groundless assertions. Tho “ hodenrriers of tho Emerald Isle," is tho title by which Irish adopted citizens are designated. “ Ignorant herd," is ano ther of its choice phrases. “ Impostors," and “ Impudent pretenders," “ spurious citizens," aru nmongst its mildest tarms of reprouch Our readers must remember an ahortivo effort that was made in New York anil Brooklyn, some two or three years since, to produco a sensation in favor of tho " Native American Party." It failed most signally. Tho highminded citizens of these places frowned down tho project. Such injustice would not bo tolerated. The party were bold, Thoy went for depriving even thoso who had al ready secured tho right of citizens, by terms of tho lafr,of tho. privilege of voting until they hnd been SI years resident of that Stale. This outrage on vested rights was too glaring; an! although Mr. Mayor Clark, and his satellites, did their utmost, the party frittered uwny, and u now among " llio things that wore." This New Orleans Association is an effort to re- wive that defunct body in another field, where it is ' hoped the principles that ooiminated it will take a firmer root. The jealousy of the Creoles is appeal ed to, arid it is thought that their distrust to tho .\nglo-SoxM, oiAl Milesian races, will water tlw tree of Native Americanism most effectually. Tho Creoles.vas a people, havo no great lovo for what they term tho “ Yankeesand thus the worst pos sible passions are to be made to bear in favor of the plans of the Native Americans—par excellence. That the wbule affair is a " Whig" trick, fo hs pl^ia as tho noonday sun, which warms the earth. Air. Peyton (of whom wo havo before spoken) is iu Magnus Appollo. The " Whigs" know that in # * Union tlwra is strength," and henco they would divide and conquer those whom they dura not at. tack, while in solid phalanx. Yes—the " Whigs" «we a deadly hate to tho adopted citizens of this Republic as a body. Most generally the man who came to this country from abroad, bsvs experien ced the working* of despotism—(be; have known whet it is to be deprived of the birthright of man— therefore, they are able to ere ate glance, on which elds of the contending parties they should /Inge themselves, and they take their stand with the lie- mucrotic Party of the country. Did they suffer themselves lobe cajoled by tbs "Whigs," and per- mlt tb« party to im*uni to power oq their shoulders, we would boor nothing of "repealing the Natural, itetiee Lews," as beg as they remained willing tools—buf •! foeass tb<-y sew fit to exercise their rights as freemen, then thoy would bo menaced with Alim and Sedition Laws. This is true Whig- gory—nnd their motto " Divide 11 Impel a" is a most appropriate one. Butthcy will not succcod. Th* Mississippi rolls through pntliluss forests, whore the woodman's nxo was nuver heard—the Ohio watcrshmindless plains —iho rail prairies of the mighty West urn yet on- tilled—nnd their cmmtlrss acres could give happy homes to all the nmioits iu Europe, Why, then should we bo selfish f Nature has given us doinnin enough to lie tho greatest people on tho earth—all wo require is population, and that wo tojoica to lenrn is increasing in an almost incrediliV ratio. Who would stay tho ball of our country’s glory t No true American. Before we lay down our pen—regretting thnt in the 19ih ceuiury wo have to contbutsucli prejudice —such littleness nf mind—we may remark that the " Address of the Louisiana Native American As sociation," declares that "hordes of foreign me chanics uud artisans" have “ tn m-q.ulitfd the wholo mcch snical business of tho U. du os"—that " hosts of foreign merchants have obtained the con trol of our bunking nnd commercial business"—■ that every" dupartmo.it of I.nw, Science, and even Divinity is being rapidly overran by foreigners"— that a “ largo majority nf the offices of tut t, pro fit, and honor, are occupied by foreigners"—that the " Professor* in our C-illi*go**and Universities uro foreigners"—and that •* tho Press Ins boon al most absolutely monopoliz'd by foreigners." Tho "Address" says a great deal more which wo have not room to notice—but wo may ask if its asser tions are true, should not the Amurican pouple re jolco that the benign influences oftheir hallowed In stitutions are able to attract such an overwhelming array of foreign talent to their shores ? For surely men who can fill tho station* which the " Address" nssignsthnm, could shine in any sphere—and be come eminent under any government. Why, if it is so, our country will soon do more for literature than did Italy of old. Our mcichant princes will rival thu Medicii—and Columbia will bo tho sent of Religion, of Science, of Letters, and iha Arts; and yet these few Native Americans would pnss laws to keep men of talent from emigrating hither. Short-sighted policy—silly statusmnn-hip ! Whoever heard thnt nny of tho nations to which a Paul—an Auoustixk—or a Peter, prearhed thu Gospel of Divine Lifo, made any objection to these Apostles of their Great Moster, because they were not natives of the benighted lends in which they tarried f Yet wo have shown th it tho Native American Association of Louisiana, objects to Di vines, b"Ciiu*o they were not born in Amorica! What a set of mon to impugn the wisdom of our ancestors! We will pursue this life subject again! THE WHIGS OF CONNECTICUT—THEIR SOUTHERN FRIENDS, AND CO-LA BOURERS. In these times, when political summersets, nnd federal joggling, nro tho order of the day, wo should be surprised ut nothing. It is, though, revolting to our Southern feelings, to sco our greatest f>os, tho Abolitionists—or their friends,—tho "Whigs," re ceiving tho indirect countenance—tho protection, and tho support uf a portion of tho press of tho South. Why is it sot Has tho demon of party such complete possession of our opponent*, tliat every avonuo to thoir homes—thoir understanding —their common sense, even, is closed, and no room is led to ho occupied hy country or patriotism—by domestic lies or public duty? And is it so / Wo somotimo sinco stated that the resolutions re ported by the Democratic Committee of ike Con necticut Legislature, wore rejected by a STRICT LY PARTY VOTE. Yes—the Senate of Con necticut rejected tho resolutions by a vote of THIR TEEN FEDERAL SENATORS to EIGHT DE MOCRATIC SENATORS—being the whole of tho Senate. - Yet, after this historical fact, for the proof of which, .wo refer to tho legislative proceedings of Connecticut, will it ho believed that any portion of the press nf Georgia would defend these " Wldgs" —would give them tho pmiso which is nlono duo to tho Democrats of that State f But they havo. Thu Mucon Messenger, a short tiinu after, hnd tho following which appeared in olker " Whig" papers in this Stnto about tho same timo:—- Tho Legislature of Connecticut have mude a very brief und sensible decision on tho Abolition pe titions with which it has been troubled by mischief making, busy bodies, who are nlwnys more atten tive to thoir neighbors’ concerns limn theit own. They stand up to their own Constitution, und re spect tliut uf.tho countty us become* honest and patriotic freemen; nnd if all othprs would do the same, we riiouM soon see an end in the jealousies nnd dissensions which now disunite different sec tions of our country. " We would merely remark that these resolutions were ndupted by u Wit to Legislature—what sonfO of our neighbors denouncing an " Abolition—Fed eral WliifrLegislature." Let them publish this, and call It Abolition if they choose—thoir renders can judge of it for themselves. Are not tho senti ments heroin contained quite a* Democratic as thoso of Dr. Duucan 1 Ye*—worthy Sirs, they are " democratic"—-and the work of Democrats alone—not a " Whig" hnd finger in the pie." Wo did not expect to re ceive praise in this quarter—yet it is so. Tho Mes senger, and its compeers, did not know, perhaps,' that it woja committee of Democrats, who did the good work. If they did, would they pruiso so largely / Tho history of this report is worth recording. We have given it in a brief compass before; but the following, from tiic Augusta Constitutionalist, wo prefer to our own; because, while we rorroboruto each other, the weight of our evidence united, will no doubt bo of more avail, than if they were taken singly. I fear tho Constitutionalist :— " Report of the Joint Committee of the Connec ticut Legislature, on the subject of slavery, Jf-e.— Ourruudur* will doubtless recollect, that the pcii- tion* on the subject of slavery. Sir,, made to the Connecticut Lcgisfiilurc during its late session, were referred to u committee composed entirely of De mocrats. This was done by the whig* in the hope that tho course which tin* committee might pursue would injure tho piny to which it belong-; if a re port should bo mud. 1 adverse lo the prayers of the petitioners, then would the whole of the abolition ists be arrayed againu (he Democracy; while on fh - oilier hand, if the report should lie favorable to thoso prayers, it would be referred to as a proof that a large portion of ihe n-*t’iio>ti De noerucy are desirous of conciliating the aboliii.ini-t-, which would excite asainst them all tluf lovers of Uie Union, and especially the ciiiz-ns of the South. Such, beyond question, ware ilx, motives by which the whig* were aciustud in ill* appointment of this committee,tod they were worthy a pirty which has ever mistaken cunning for wisdom. The port of the eommiilee has been made, ami is not less remarkable for tnceminent ability with which iliswri.tcn, than fur the sound Democratic doc< trine* which it contains. In *11 respects, it D ad verse to the views of the abolitionists, and adds another proof pi the many that havo been before given of liter .urn determination of the Democracy of New England to countenance no interference with the domestic imiitutions of tits* Smith, such as is wished for l*y the abolitionuts. We are rejoiced that such ha* been the 'cult, and have lo thank the Connecticut w bigs for giving our friends such an excellent opportunity for manifesting their prinei- pies, lhou|li they wnra far front atiifripallng such • decisive report a* hs* been made by the commit te*. They judge their opponouu by tbenuelve*. •m expected something U e jeiuiiiael nature, but, a* usual in such cases, they have been foiled by the honesty of those whom they hoped to overthrow." From the above, it will bo scon that the " Wl^x* dodged the question of Abolition—they knew the 1 the Abolitionist* would uso it to their advantage, or disadvantage, at the coming election—therefore, thoy threw the *• responsibility" on the Democrat*. Nobly did the latter do their duty a* ritfo<*n«ofthfo groat Republic. The report gave the Abolition ists no hope, nnd, consequently, they threw their weight in the *cn!o of the " Whlgi We do not now intend to say much on this sub ject, as it i* understood throughout tho country, anil it was not until wo saw the following very gra phic paragraph, in iho Macon Mcsssengtr rf tho -4th Inst., tbatVro concluded to add a word to what wo hail already raid. The Messenger is one of the suppoitors of iho Connecticut "Wldgs"—and n paper too that rejoiced nt tho election nf tin* Arch* Abolitionist Slade, of Vermont—a trow " \Vhtg r of iho most approved model. The Messenger snys, " We notice nn article In tho Savannah Georgian of tho 96th till , in which the assertion is made,that when tin* question was taken on certain residudo- in opposition to Ah-diiion Petitions that li id been brought boforo tlm Connecticut Legist' lure, that ev ery Whig voted against them, nnd every Dick John son Democrat, iu their favor. We will not ur-ler- lake in impistc.li ih-» veracity of the Editor of tho Georgian, but will remind him of one fact which ho nt-iy reconcile with *ti* assertions if lincun. In the last Legislature there wns n handsome whig major ity—Haw then were these resolutions carried, if they all voted against them t W ill he show us how this was done T " Another article in tho same paper snys—that no whig paper iu Connecticut advocates the cause r.f the South—nnd nil sustain tho cause of the Abo litionist*. &c. We have no other reply to mnke to this, ilmn that it Ufulsc, utteily false—nnd wo nro prepared to prove it so, by testimony thnt cannot bo disputed, whenever it becomes noccssary." Now, the unswer wo givo the above unlmndsomn remarks—tho fining production of -iS nuliern advo cate of Slade- IPAtirs, will be found in the following from tho Hartford Times of the d iy after tho re. port wn* mude. Tho Times, published on the sput, says:— "Slavery Report.—The great length of tho LcgLIntivo proceedings, together with the very nblo nnd conclusive report uf the committee to whom were referred several petit! •<ine relative to slavery, which wo hy before our re id *r*, h ive excluded hI- nmsi nil other m-ittur from our columns. The re port will be rend with grant (merest. Wo have lie- fore stited that the presiding officer* of thu Snnato and House took tho u:iu*u d co-n-se of upp.tinting a iniij'iray of their political opponents on this com- iniitee, for tho purpose of avoiding ie«psn«ini!ity. Well nnd faithful y have this mnj.yiiy discharged tlieb duty. Tho report wns rejected in tint Senate on Thursday by n strict pnily vote—the thiitecii Federal Senators voting in favor i>f ii* d.•'finite post ponement. mi l thu eight Democratic Senators sus taining the report. Wo sli-dl comment mure fudy upon this .-u ijcut next week." The Messenger nsk* us, how could the rcsolu. lions, he speaks of,be carried if the" Whigs" voted against them?—wo will tell him. Supp-meall the Dcmncnits voted for them nnd some of tho more moderate " Whig*" did thu sume, they might he carried. Now, purhups, lie cun add a new leaf to his book. One tiling is certain, however, tliat the voto in tho Senate of that State, which is 03 component a part of the Legislature, ut tho House, vent a strictly parly vote—IS "WHIGS,”to* DEMOCRATS. Can tho Messenger show it* whore the Democratic party went against the South, in the Connecticut Legislature T We linvo shown him wlrnt hi* pets, tho " Whig*" have done. Thoy went in n solid phalanx against the report in the Senate. Wc think tho Messenger bad bettor lmvo "kept dark” on this subject. Culling names, nnd impeaching tlio" veracity" of contemporaries, will not go down .with reflecting People nt this timo of day. The Messenger talks of" Dick Johnson Democrats!” —which doe* he prefer I "Johnson Democrats," or SLADE-WII IG$? Tho Messenger, also, in a manner ut once cha racteristic of “ nil thu decency, and nil the talent party," pronounces a statement of ours, concerning tho Whig press in Connecticut, " false—utterly false," Assertions like this, wo will not bandy with tho editorial writer in tho Messenger, but nt this time, would merely call on that editor for proofs. Let him show us, if lie can, thu “ Whig" paper in Connecticut that “advocates tho cause of tho Smith?" It is “necessary" tliat ho should do so now—mid produce some of their eloquent defences of tho South—their opposition to abolition, nnd their ailvocucy of our Institutions. If Im can do this, wa will cliuci fully render strict justice to such n paper, by bestowing credit wlioro credit may be due, and will imil it as an lionoralde exception in these day* of blue-light Whiggory. In taking leave of this subject, tiio editor of the Messenger can complain of nn injustice. Wo havo placed hi* article entire in our columns. This is our general custom; that our renders may see what is said pro and con. Will tho Messenger do tho sume I “ Nous verrous." GEORGIA HISTORICAL SOCIETY.

Tho mooting was nno of much interest, and evinced tho determination of the members to con tinue tho laudahlo exertions which marked the commencement of their operations. A DEMOCRATIC ADMINISTRATION. Thoso merchants in ilia commercial emporium of the countty—New York—ns well as those in other cities who havo pursued n course of steady op position to Iho Into nnd presont administration* should pauio and refloct upon the injustice meted outto their public servants. There nro many intelli gent merchants who repudiate such opposition and who acknowledge with gratofu! Amerlcnn feelings, tho cflbrts of tho Democratic Administrations of their country, for tho last ton years, to procure in demnity for spoliations on their commcrco, and to protect thnt commerce from nggrosslonof uny kind. Others, however, withhold praise when it is deserv ed, while they ardently seek for opportunities to heap party wrath upon the heads of Democratic Ex- coutiros. Is this politic,—is it just,—is it consist ent with tliut American fooling which should glow in tho bosoms of those, whoso enterprise unfurls tho “ stars and stripes,", in tho most distant sens, anil who in tho hour of conflict for their dearest rights roly upon the American pcoplo, not us a party hut as n community, to arm thoir defence, and to sus tain that free trade which has been so imldy urged, nt tho cannon's mouth, on aoa and on land, THE ADMINISTRATION AND THE Mfift CHANTS. Let us now, in pursunneo of ihc-intimntion given iu our paper of yesterday, inquire wlrnt tlm Demo cratic Administration of iho Government, so vehe mently accused of bittur and systematic hostility, has done for tho merchants within tlm lust ten years. Tho treo is best known by it* fruits; und to use a more homely saving,equally true, “Tho proof of the pudding is in the eating." When Gonorul Jackson succeeded Mr. Adams, tho foreign relation* of this country were in a state of groat purplexity and confusion. Our oojcct is nut to ennsuro others, but to vindicate tlm Domo erotic Administration from unfounded charges. Wo will not, for this reason, say whoso was tlio fault, but so it was. Little hud lieen done in the way of adjusting any of those points of controversy which tho conflicting interests of nations inevitably pro duce, except what rcnJeicd them more complicated and inextricable. Wo h.u! lost tho West ItiJiu trade, und Mr. Canning, tlio British Minister, hnd declared ul).negotiation fur its restoration inadmis sible. The French Government hud ceased even to listen to propositions for indemnity; many of our negotiation* liaJ been discontinued iu disgust; others were at u duad stand; uud of others, the suc cessful termination was beyond conjecture, if not beyond Iiojkj. This was most especially the case with thoso claims for spoliations on the commerce of tho United States, which hud from limn to timo been perpe trated l>y the parties, great mid small, to tliat great contest vv hicb ltn-1 lor so ninny years convulsed tho nations of thu eu.th, and made her bosom the blood stained hod of millions. The indemnity duo from Franco was all hut a had debt, carried to tho ac count of profit und loss. Tho cluim* on Nuplcs, Denmark, ntul other powers, which had, either wil fully or by caul-cion, seized and confiscated our ves sels, were either iu abeyance, or relinquished in de spair, and a nuliuuuluct of limitation loomed about »•/ piwi-u ^u- r —-:lu! V „r u—v ■ ouster no demand had lieen made for a long time, or it had been urged in n sty e and tamper which mndo a compliance Incompatible with national honor. Such was the state of our foreign relations whan tho sceptre passed from the hands uf tho Federa lists, and a Democratic Administration succeeded. And what do wo now see, n* tlw fruits of ten years' rule of that Administration ? Thocolouinl jealousy of England has bou.i southed, and thu Wost Indies onencX TIm French indemnity is recovered. Tlio Neapolitan indemnity is recovered. The Danish indemnity is recovered. The Spunish indemnity is recovered. Evciy where tlio account bus boon dosed, awl justice done to tlio citizens of tho United States, hy tneuns which liave elevated the character of this confederation to a point it never uttainod un der any former Administration. For whom, and for whoso banefit, did tlio Demo cratic Administration thus successfully labor 1 For merchants, who wore abusing uiid calumniating it a* their enemy all the while. There wus not a sin- glo man among tho piautcra, farmers, or manufac turers, interested a single dollur in tlieso vast resti tutions. All wont into thu coflbrs of merchants, who still continue, with increasing energy, the cry of hostility to commerce, and dcnouuco the Demo cratic Administration only tho louder for every now benefit it confers. Nor is tliis all. Tlio Doinounitio Administration perseveres in heaping coals of lire on tlio hare hum! uf rank ingratitude, by laboring incessantly for tlio interest of commerce Treaties havo bocn con cluded with vurious potentates in tlio East, which cither give extension or sonority to the trade in that quarter, aiul negotiations are every where in pro gress to plncenur merchant* on u footing of equality with those of tho most favored nations. Still more than this. Tlio most eflectual protection to foreign commerce is every whore givon, und whorover tho flag uf thu United Slates is insulted, tlicir citi/ens wronged, or th ir property or per-on* violated, tlio interposition is prompt, and tho chastisement ef fectual. Measures are in progress to increase Iho sphere of this protection in tho East Indies, on the coast of Af leu, in tho Gulf of California, on tlio Northwest coast of America, in the vast I’ucific, and wherever tho enterprise of our merchants shall carry the flag of tlio Union. Does this look like hostility T Doc* it afford the shadow of a justification ovon to tho charge of in difference to thu interests of tho merchants J Docs it not prove directly the contrary t Does it not de monstrate a persevering zeal, u’wary watchfulness, thnt siiouid bring a blush of shame cm thu fucc of tha merchant for this ingratitude ? It is revindicate tliut Administration from till absurd imputation, that wo have stated these facts and drawn theta canclutlnn*. Wc not expect to '• coax," ns tho phrase is, whenever wo talk a littlu reason to our opponents. Wo d > not aspire to the glory of converting a single one of these stem Iwlli- gcreuu, whom eyes are blind, while their mouths are wide open, uttering deep and hitter denuncia tions. With mon so despcrutoiy boot on being re venged on somebody for imaginary injuries that they grasp their own throat* instead of those of other people, it is in vain to reason, and still more vain to attempt persuasion. There, are, however, some, we believe many, among them, whom the arts and uxcltemcnts uf political loaders, and thu inflam-itory language of party newspapers, have not yet elevated re that pitch of phrcnzy, which equally places them above the sphere of reason or the reach of conviction—some who have not yet ventured so fur boy *nd their depth in the vortex of speculation, th-rt nothing but ono her expansion of the great cred.t system esn aavo them from drowning—»ome whilook hack with longing eyes to the days of morean'ile stability and “hard money." To ihese wo have addressed ourselves, not to coax or per- suidc, but toronvinco by facts and reasonings, thnt the De-nocratic Administration is their best friends, aud tioit nevnr will there be any permanent endur ing prosperity among them until tnc currency shall •gain rest on a specio basis, und the great measures of that Administration be accomplished. They ms' be assured that, while it steadily refuses to sacri lice the interMis of the other great classes of the community at the shrine of oommcrco, it will u steadily persevere in that oourse which bo*b reawn and experience prove most permanently beneficial ui tho merchants, whose prosperity can never rest jwrmxnently on tliat which Im* no permanency. Thu Democratic Adminisl utiononly wishes to free them from those harassing vlreisdiudei arising out of * bloated credit system, which, for years past, havo made ilium the sport, not of tlw freaks of for tune, hut the policy of banker* and broken.— Washington Globe.
