anticipated On Friday night the Natives Of the First
Congressional District held meeting at the Wash
ington Market, on the line between Southwark, Moya
mensing and the line of the two city wards attach
ed the district At this meeting, individual named
Straord made several speeches. in which he proposed
to defend himself against certain attacks which he
said had been made upon his character by Wm d. Kelly
Esq., the prosecuting attorney of this county, and by
Wm. Dean Barnes Esq, member of the Philadelphia
bar By way Of proving that the character of Mr. Kelly
better than his he read letter to the
bled mass, charging him by inuendo with receiving a
bribs of three hundred dollars and gold watch for
tering noiie prosequ in favor Of certain individuals
who had broken into and robbed the watch and ewelry
store Of young named Stelwaggan and that the
money paid out of the proceeds OF a robbery in
New York, which they had planned while in prison;
also with having received bribe of seventy five
dollars with view to the settlement oi case
where the individual had been charged with receiving
stolen goods owing them TO have been stolen These
charges Of gross official misconduct made to large
crowd of people and throwing suspicion upon the adm
nstrson OF Justice in the county OF Philadelphia were
reported TO the Attorney General, John H. Kane ESD
and to Mr.. Kelly the next morning, and those gentle
men, after consultation VITA of best citizens
to the conclusion that they OF such a charac
ter to destroy the iouence OF the public prosecuting
officers in the administration OF the criminal law of the
Commonw eah, unless they investigated and prov.
ed to be false. Accordingly, a warrant was issued,
and Straord was before the Mayor YESTERDAY of
ternoon, at O'Clock. After the testimony had been
given Mr. Kane, the Attorney raj, announced that
his only object in this matter was an uvestgaton and
opportunity to prove the charges false He there
fore pledged the all o the Commonw to the defen.
dan and promised that ifhere the slightest fou.

The alsehood of this faction startling Who has not
heard them say in their speecheswho has not read in
the columns OF their papers, and indeed in every decla
ration of principle put forth by them intention
to disturb existing rights under alton
laws and the decions of our courts thereuponi And
yet they hired the most eminent counsel of this city to
attack the naturalization papers OF young man. grant

least ten thousand adopted Citizens and render their
certificates OF naturalization waste paper. These
lawyers under the instruction of their clients the
Native party even went SO far to nsnuae such
sweeping dlsfranchsement desirable They contend
for the absurd doctrine that by the of 1874 no mat

country even he came here in his infancy yet it shall
be only counted as three years and that he shall not be
entitled to his naturalization until years after coming

they dd not follow the directions act-ther pro

democratic Inspector offered in open court not to take
