Our Platform of Principles exhibit no such de sign, and by that alone must we be judged uutil our acts show the contrary. We entertain no designs against those who hare been legally naturalized and become citizens; we propose to curtail none of their privileges, or divest them of any of their right. But we intend, if wo can get the jtowcr, so to change the naturalization taws as to put a check to the influx of for eigners, which has increased tosnch an a larming. extent for the last ten years. We h.lTe no idea of jwrmlttiug this country to be made a vast alms-house, for the paupers of Europe ra Botany Bay for the recep tion of the convicts and felous of the whole world. The evil is a rapidly growing one, and demands a prompt application of the rem edy. The only reroly l j wJu success, is a change of our la,w j regulating immigration, and an alteration of the law with' regard to the ieriod of rusidence ncc cessary, before a foreiguer shall be entitled to naturalization. We do not wish to prohibit the immi gration of the right sort useful men men of good character and industrious habits, but we insist that paupers, felous, convicts and ' beirsfars sbaIHo entirelv ex pi tided. This country requires protection from this great floytfof heterogeneous iinmVra- tion, now driving upon our shores, at the rate ot half a million annually. Steps must taken to anient it soon, or it wil be too late. There is danger from the p:esent con Uition ot things ; it stares reasonable men ot nil parlies iu tle face. Our opjonents cry 44 peace ! peace I " when there is no peace.' Sii.pose the tide of cniinigration continues to tlww to this country for the nextj ten years at tlie peseiit rate, wlere willithe power of the Government be !

It is useless to go into a labored exi)laoatioo of tlie causes of tins result.. One thing we may remark, that in this County, in others, many refusei.t to vote for Col Slowe, because they had neither soei him nor Iward hiw spek, akhough they ljelicved in tlie- jHincirJes of tlw A- mcricaa Party.

Such a course answered their purpose in this; the first contest with native Ameri canism ; their party screws could cot be resisted ; but our principles will prevail at last. Cabarrus has done well. With a small vote she has given Stowe a larger maj. than Dockery obtained ; and, had it not been that many of 'our friends were prevented, by a freshet, from attending the polish the majority would Live been laro-er.
