We publish in this number the meeting Of the
Native American Association at Brooklyn, which
we copy from the National Banner. We must
express our regret that our friends in Brooklyn
should designate their Association by the party
appellation Of " "Dem0crafs"--not because we are
opposed to the principles which originated that
political party, but because we think all party
distinctions ought to be merged in that of the one
great party Of Native americans, that we offend
not the feelings prejudices of any, but concli-
ate all: course which we think dictated alike by
prudence and policy, while every one is left to
cherish his own peculiar opinions on matters Of
minor importance. We are all aiming at the same
things and endeavorng to attain the same great
objects by purifying our Government and our
country from foreign control and influence. We
therefore would earnestly and respectfully sug-
gest to our friends Of Brooklyn and every other
place, to drop that distinction and let us take the
broad position which we can all occupy in COM
mon without conflict; and on which we can stand
cemented by one common bond Of union, ever
bearing in mind the maxim of the Father of our
country, 'united we stand, divided we fall''


We are, however, gratifed that the " Demo-
Gratis" have come to the aid Of the Natives, as it
at nails to the counter that base counterfeit
charge of false patriots, that we were "Whig''
party; while it must be obvious to all, not will
fully blind, that both Whigs and Democrats en-
list under our banner. Wings may unite with
us in one place, and Democrats in another, and
from whatever party they come, if they fall into
our ranks on principle. we hail them as brothers.
