origin of this AnteriCan ovetneut. * The
. .
ut
answer we give tu full in his own words :
"Whence originated this Native Airier , '
icon party? It was engendered amid the
corruption or our large eitiem. A party
actively tugsgett in fainting the Limes of
I religions and political persecution. Jts ex-
istenee was first brought to light amid the I
flames of burning churches and convents.
1 Such a party could not, until reeently;
1 breathe in the pure atmosphere .of 'the
crntry. The novelty of the' new' name`
I of "Know Nothitigism," the alarm of -se.
crecy, enabled its advocates to obtain a foot
I hold in the country during the last year.:
Every village' has its tavappainted appli• I
1 cant to POAI Master General Campbell
'for on tiffice. Every village has its idlers,
l and the truth'of the homely Maxim was
verified. that thu "d-1 always has .work 1
for idle hands to do." Every village has its
religious bigot, and fanatic, who iguorantly
supposed that hie religion taught him 10
persecute all who differed front him--
Meetiugs were held iu old, dilapidated, un
occupied buildings or in retired groves,
"after nightfall, ;here no eye could see
thew but the owl and bat, fit emblems of
such a party ;'oaths of secrecy were ad-
I teinistered, injunction of non ml record() ;
I.ravra was to be held in light esteem, if
the success of the patty would require it."
Lawyers, by general consent; are Mader

i pretty freely in making an argument in
support of a bad ease ; and probably our
Representative ought not to be held strict
ly accountable for tho uncharitable invec
tives here denounced, in wholeaale tang

best of his immediate fellow citizens—to
say nothing or tho hundreds of thousands

troduced into the aboie paragraph. Along
With the tide of worthy and acceptable im
migrants who have sought our shores as a
refuge from the exactions of profligate
prifistitsintrliriestly despots in the old
world; there has annually floated a mass
of undesirable social material in the shape
of restless agrarian agitators, - criminals
and-paupers, who have mainly located in
and about our larger cities, without regu
, tar avocations—studding the alleys, and
lanes, and courts,, of these cities, with low
groggeries.-lager-beer saloons, and gam
bling,dens—contributing, directly and indi
rectly, to the increase of crime, and taxing
' largely the resources of their penitentiaries
'and alms-houses. The demagogues in bot h
the great political parties wore not long its
marking out this population as fitting ma
terial frem which to manufacture politis.„
cal capital for them Selves and friends. A
vote is a vote, and counts as much wheth
er deposited in the ballot-box by the intel
ligent and virtuous citizen oc by the Mite
;
rate pauper. To secure this material there
was rival and sharp bidding at every con
tested election—offices, money, influence,
and the blandest flattery being freely prof
.
ferd by rival demagogues. In the course
. ,
lof time matters came to such a pass that
' the great mass of all the policemen, lamp.
lighters, street-cleandrs, and other offices
let the disposal of the municipal corpora
-1 miens, were filled by persons of foreign
!birth, (many of them unnaturalized,) to
the exclusion of &iciest and worthy na
tive-born citizens, who were required, in
familiar parlance, tostake a "back seat."--
Naturally indignant at such a baso prosti
tution of official patronage, and equally in
dignant at the mass of crime •and pauper
ism thrown into their midst by the popu
lation thus reaping the lion's share in the
rewards of successful , partizan conflicts, the
honest masses of Whig. and Democratic
voters in New York mid Philadelphia, it,
1842-8-1. broke through the trammels of l i
party . ,obligations, originated a N.,tive
merican organization, and 'swept both cit.
ies by unprecedentedly large majorities.—
;Honest men went into office, and the 'City'
Administration passed into the hands of
native-born Americans. Embittered by
1 the loss of office, and rendered arrogant by
1-the long-continued flatteries of designing
demrgues, the foreign population re-
, 1
l o gardel the new movement with no friend
.; ly eye. A conflict wet, natural under the
excitement peculiar to such a contest. In'
Philadelphhi this was realizCd in the brutal
and murderous assault upon an American.
I procession while. passing through an Irish
Catholic district. The unprovoked tour.
der of SIMPLER, shot down beneath the
folds of an American, flag, for no other rem
I than that he dared to avow an American
l feeling, led to acts of retaliation in the Me
! morable church-burning riots of Philadel
phia—riots disgraceful in themselves, and
nut to be defended 'on any gronud of pro.

t ; The iminek: tia cause for this :imerican
movement having been removed. by . a
correction of the evils which evoked it, the
movement gradually subsided, except in
Philadelphia and one or two other plaCes,
where it maintained' a lingering but not
formidable existence. Not ro, however,
with the spirit which actuated the dem
i gogues whose mai-conduct had originated
it. Instead of yielding to the popular re
!
bake, these same demagogues went delib
-IPatelir to Work to pander still deeper to
I,l,the prejudices of the foreign population,
exciting their animosity against the native
-- •
bbrn who had identified themselves with
the Native movement. and by artful np.
peals to religious prejudices sought in ad
dition to array the Catholic vote against I
the '-church-burners." The Locofoco
press, to make up defections from their
ranks, was not long in taking up the FlllllO
strain, and from that day to this, not a sin
-
& important State or National election
has taken place in which t,he Locofnen press,
backed by - the leaditig demagogues in that
party, has not sought earnestly and per- 1
sistently to array de entire Catholic and '
Foreign vote nankin' the Whig party and
Whig candidates, as inimical to them and
their religion. rt was no, as every intelligen t_
reader knows, in our own county and State
—and so over the entire Union. During
all this period the Whig party soughtl
to bear up under this villainous system of
electioneering, by addressing itself to the
I intelligence and honesty of the , voters of
the Country. With bow much success,
1 the results of a majority of State and Na, l
tional elections sufficiently testify. Howev
er, all this pandering to the prejudices of the
Foreign population—this coquetting with
a powerful and readily concentrated religious
interest—placed the men who sought its
aid under obligations, which could only be
requited by a liberal dispensation of official
patronage to the one, and moulding legis
lation to spit the peculiar demands of the
other. Hence the last few years witness
ed a recurrence of the same evils in our
larger cities which evoked the' American
demonstration In 1844. Still more. - In
toxicated by the evidernes of political pow-1
er held in their hands, and emboldened by l
the high bids for that poweron the part of
contending parties, the dignitaries of the
Catholic churele---themselves mostly of for
eigu birth and sympathizing but little with
the native Catholiet laity in their attach
ment to American Republican institutions
—determinedlo make the most of their
position advancing their peculiar no
tions, • Wilco the general and evidently
preconcerted movement, first to baniali the
Bible from our public schools--then a.

This power, thlts success fully controlling

D'}'The KtilleaS election, which has
been reported by telegraph as having re

er peculiar in its character. We lately
gave the census returns of,the number of
VOters in the various districts, from Which
it appeared that in the first; or Lawrence
district, settled entirely by New England
ers, there were about 300 voters. A tel.

ewer. The senseless clamor of "church
burners,'' "fanatical religionists;' and
•reign of terror," broke down the move
ment in 1844. But that game won't answer
now. Nor will it do to brand the hosts
of freemen now battling with clout hearts
and brawny arms in support of the cher
ished institutions of our country, as "big.
ots and fanatics," or 'village idlers."—
Earnest men are at earliest work—and
that work will not cease, until the coml.
try shall have been redeemed from its
present political vassallage and the wrongs
of her native born . citizens fully retires
sed.
Having disposed of the origin of the A.
merican movement, Mr. AlcCl,eart pro
ceeds to deliver some orthodox, although
very trite, views or. the subject of teli
gious toleration, and. the unrestricted
'right to enjoy Whatever religious belief
each man's conscience mny approve, ae
guarantied in our National and State Con
stitutions. But what, all this has to do
with Americanism passes our compre
hension: We have never been advised
that either Americanism or Know•Noth
ingism coptemplated interfering with re
ligious rights or privileges, but rather that
it professed to guard them from invasion,
by making war against the policy which
would fetter Govermental politics by ma.
king them subservient to the despotism of
ecclesiastical influence. The Constitution
of the United States very wisely guards a
gainst the establishment of a national relig
ion, or the enactment of laws infringing up.
on the freedom of religious belief. But the
same Constitution just'as wisely ,provide , p
for the purity and freedom Of the elective
franchise. A voter impressed with the
conviction of the correctness and ortho
doxy of the political creed professed 'by
the &merican party, naturally and micas.
sarily casts his ballot for a candidate coin
ciding with his own convictions, just as a
Whig would vote fora candidate avowing
Whig principles, or u a Denturat would
vote for a Democrat avewing Democratic
, ,
principles. To argne that either, by so
doing. violates the. National Constitution,
is shallow nonsense, and needs ho coun
ter,argument to show its absuillity. •
• But we -have extende d' this erticle much
,
further' than was our intention: Our aim
was mainly•to possess the reader of 'Mr.
M'ClitAx's views of the Ainerican move
meat. as presented to the .Legislature.—
We regret dint he tuti'deemed it his duty
.
to express those views in language so ex
ceptionable, and shall be muckeurprised if
he do . not have occasion to riinit ii him
self. Mr. M'Cuwea general policy )0
the Legislature has been such as to meet
our approbation, and we believe that of
his constituepts. ' On but few important
questions has his recorded 'views ditf*r
ed from our own. It is a matter of:sincere
regret that gentlemen of his character and
standing should permit themselves to be
seduced or betrayed into the practice of

li7"The Democracy of Virginia, like
their brethren of New Hampshire, have ev,
idently a strong penchant for the .myate•
rions "Sam." Mr. WISE, their leader in
the gubernatorial canvass, is carrying on
Hie war vigorously and expresses his de
termination to sink or swim 'on the anti-

symptoms furnished by the recent muni
cipal elections at Alexandria; Fredericks

places, aro to be regarded as indications of
the temper of •the

The Richmond papers, in accounting for
this one-sided and unexpected result, re
cord a feet similar to that which has char
notarized other elections throughout the
country, to wit—naturalized citizens sus
taining the American movement. The
Richmond Examiner (Democrat) says :
"This is a fact which may be told in Oath
and published in the streets of Ascalon,
that naturalized citizens voted for the
Know Nothing candidates by scores and
by hundreds."
At the recent borough election in this
place, no less than THREE of our best and
most respected naturalized citizens, to our
personal knowledge, voted the entire Roller
ienn ticket How many others there may
hays been, beyond our personal knowledge,
we cannot of course say. But facts like
these, wo should suppose, must be an ef
fectual estoppel tell the clamor about the
Anti• Republican tendencies of the Know

INDEPENDENCE, March 31.
Several hundred returning emigrants
from Kansas have just entered our city.—
They were preceded by the Westport

Came in at the' west side of the Public

They gave repeated cheers for Kansas and

bill—a sovereignty of non-resident outlaws.
Let us see what will be the effect of this.
Governor Reeder will be very likely, we
tbink, to set his face sternly against such
an invasion, and refuse to recognize the va
lidity of the election. If such acts as
these be submitted to by the Executive
and the people, then the election may
justly be stigmatized as the rule of riot,
outlaw and injustice, and our constitu
tion and liuve as worthless and power
less.

A JUST VERDICT.--The Quincy
(III.) Herald says that the Granil Jury re
fused to find a bill against John Pigg, a
lad about 14 years rif age, for shooting
and killing a man named Pile. The cir

with his wife, and threatened to heat her
--she escaped to the house of the boy's
molter, was followed by Pile. who made
demonstrations to whip her, when Mrs.
Pigg interfered, saying that no wonann
should be whipped by a ilia!' in her house.
Pile then struck the mother of the bob•
seve•al times in the face, when the lad
seized a shot gun and shot him down.
from the effects of which Pile died the
next day. The neighbors persuaded the
boy to go to Quincy and stirrenderliinri

By a resolution adopted HI the last 1111 . Aet'•
ing of the Society, all present were re
quested and authorized to procure addi
tional meMbers, and. the -President and
Secretary diiecied to inform. the public
(which we now do.) that die holding of an
Agricultural Fair - next tall will dePend
entirely upon "what , the 'people of .the
county may du towards assisting the 50...
cietv's efforts. Its funds are far from
sufficient to justify the undertaking; s
yet, but if the people will by the April
contrilone with proper liberality
to its treasury by an inerease of its mein :
bership. and thus authorize the cninmenve-i
ment of preparations, th; Society will
very promptly undertake the trouble, and
endeavor to carry the prijeci. to a succeS
ful termination. The membi.rs of the
Society are anxious to hold a Fair on a
largo scale—such an one as the County
need not be 951 tamed of,---hut an increase
of hinds alone will insure . it. This state
meat is made now so that the politic
may thus early know the state oldie ques
