The a A ail Otiaitio Party.
The Eipress is still giving "reasons fur an
AmeriCan party," hut they appear to us any
thing but sound or reasonable. There is no
Way.of sustaining the principles of the Know
Nothings , except by considering ourselves
an isolated people, shut out item the rest of
the world, assuming:: the 'selfishness of the
Chinese or. Japanese, and -excluding from our
midst all .who would wish to .make their
homes among ns. If we would sluts wrap our- ,
selves in the folds of exclusiveness, draw
about ourselves a Chinese wall, then it Would .
be but carrying out an established principle
to.exclude all of foreip birth from any par
ticipation in our affairs. But our Ideas, of
freodornor not so narrow as
this. , .
We believe there are .those in other lands
who poss es s the fira . and trUe.spirit of free-.
dom to' the same extent as ourselves; and . many
of. these, unable to secure at band what our
fathers, through the aid and assistance of for
eigners, hare secured for us, land upon our
shores and breathe with us the alto!: liberty
which thq so much prize, and hare so much
•
longed for.
No doubt thousands coma from merely,
selfish motive, only -to better their condition
in life. Such even should ever be : Welcome.
We' have , "room and- verge enough" for all
who would seek these shores; and as no
evils 'have yet arisen none need be appro.-
.hended, from their commingling with us.
It, is only
,necessary to look about here in
New lock to see how soon and low icadily
they becoine part and parcel of us—to see .
the many eminent, patriotic, honorable men
held high position, and ornament' alike our
society and our name,' but whose fathers, had
the " American" principles prevailed, would
have been driven from our shores or shut out
from all participation in affairs of State, and
