We have too much evidence before our eyes to re- sist the belief, that WHlGGERY AND NATIVE AME- R1cANIsN ARE UNITED; and wedasire it to ba re- msmbered that, fl the Whis party triumphs at the ensuing election. and Henry Clay is elected Pfesi- dest (Which God in his mercy for this and other manifold reasons, forbid) the naturalization law, in oaf opinion, will be ralnodeled so as to require re- sidenee of about TwENTY-oNE YEARS to entitie foreigner 10 be admitted citizen of this glorious union, and also strict exclusion from ofee, no mat ter what may be lis virtues or his talents Do oaF whig opponents forget, that the name of LAFAYETTE is engrayen on the heart of every American with that of WASHINGTON; that DE KALa a German, was Major General in the American Army of the Revolution and won for his name glorious immor- tality, and fell in te defence of the liberty of our country at Camden; that KosctUsKo, the noble Pole, was the aid of Washington in the Revolution, and after his return to his own native land vaently and unsueeessny fought for the freedom of Poland; that FHoMNs ADDts ENMET, all Irishman, was the pride of the New York bar, admired for his talents, honored for his patriotism, and respected for his virtues?

Do they forget that there are eminent foreigners from all quar- tels of the globe, from almost every State Duledom and Province of Europe, who have adopted our country as their own and who would feel it as a blow aimed at themselves, to see their friends and brethren put under long apprenticeship of twenty one years before they could become citizens

 Have not foreigners come here under the implied invitation of the government; and do they not make good citizens, and by their perseverance and indus try, gather together many ol the goods of this life

 Why then require them to reside here long term of years before they can become citizens? IL is the opinion ol the DEMOCRACY that if any change is made the term, which is now FIVE, ought to be reduced, instead of carrying t up to TIVE VrY -oNE YEARS as proposed by eastern WHIG papers; and whiei is doubtless the universal SENTIMENT OF THE M rIG PARTY. if il was not too near an election to express it. 7Hey aeH mol express I aow; but let the NATURALIzEp FOREIGNER remember, on the day of the ELECTION that HENRY r. PEypLEroN, for the Senate, ROBERT w. JOHNSON, JAMES ERWIN, and LEMUEL R. LINCOLN, are the Democratic candi- dates for the Legislature; and every one of them eminently worthy ofasaatin hatbody. The Wings have been tried, and have done nothing; the only thing they are certainly foris Henry Clay (the very man by the way who endsavored to deprive foreign CTS of the right of presumption public ands,) and therefore nothing can be expected from Wings The Wings will not do let Us therefore try the Dem ocrats awhile and if they do not serve us better, why turn them out likewise.
