The "Native" party in s.. Louis, flushed
with their recent partial victory for muni-
cipal officers, have brought out ticket for
members Of the convention to amend the
constitution Of Missouri, and this ticket is
made up ENTIRELY Of leading aud actips
wulGs. To say the least, this is rather a
singular coincidence. Our opponents have
asserted all along that the Native American
party was made up equally Of wings and
democrats; and il SO, policy would certainly
have induced them to pay proper respect
10 both parties in their nominations. But
It is not 90. Nine out Of every ten who
compose the "Natiye" party were formerly
whigs, as is shown BY the elections in the
various cities, where the strength Of the
rroscriptionists mainly lies. In New York,
for instance, whiggery is known to be al
most entirely swallowed up in "Native-
ISM" At the last charter election, when
the democrats succeeded by nearly ten
thousand majority, out Of some fifty thou
sand votes cast the whig candidate for may
or received less than ten thousand. The
contest was between the democrats and
"Natives," whiggery being as good as lost
sight Of.


The narrow and bigotted doctrines Of
"Nativeisln" arc condemned by the DEM
ocrats as unworthy Of freemen, and un-
worthy of the enlightened age in which
we live. They are the doctrines of intol-
erance andsproscription, and are rapidly
running into fanaticism and religious per-
secution. The party advocating these prin-
ciplcs has had an ephcmiral existence, but
its end is drawing to close. Il will soon
throw of its alias and disband, and its
members viii again find their way back to
the nhig ranks, and be taken into full COM
muniOn by their former associates.
