London Gan Shops.-The Rev. DIR. Weight,
curate Of ST. George the Martyr, in his address
on the opening Of the national schools in that pa
IRISH, stated that calculation had been made OF
the number of persons that frequented fourteen

THE REMEDY.

The recent elections, and the troubles along
our borders, have been pregnant with evidence OF
the necessity of some change in our laws of ma
turalization. Both political parties-the ms and
the oUTs-cry out against the widespread corrup-
ton, the fraud and villany which have disgraced
the contests of the last year; and each charges
the other with having bought or manufactured,
voters not naturalized in this country-yet both
are afraid to take the only course which can ar
rest this demorazng and disgraceful traffic. We
have from time to time published notices of these
frauds, in the hope that shame-if no sense of
patriotism is left TO them if they not chained
hand and foot to the of party-that shame
would have some influence upon them. We now
appeal to their love of country. We entreat them
to look into their own bosoms-to consult that
monitor which they will find there, and ponder
the end of these things. We would awaken
them to at least some gmmering sense of what
all this must result in We would warn them
that this flood of corruption will swell at each
annual return of their political strife, till the
whole country is swept and the fair tree of liberty
is left defaced, and blackened, and stripped We
would animate them and encourage them now
with the hope that it is not too late-that they
may yet arrest this desoation, and bring back the
political contests of this country to their legiti-
mate object-the permanent good of the whole
people. And we seriously, and again and again,
urge them to purge the ballot-box and the poll
book from the thousands of stains which the i'm
portaton and introduction of the unbaptzed alien
as voter have put upon them. We want patriots
men who know, and, knowing, love and revere
our insttutions-to keep those institution in thei,
purity and vigor. We want peace within ane
upon our borders. We want to live as neighbors
to those who are placed by nature and politica
relation, in juxta-position with us. We want tt
keep clear of the excitements with which othe,
lands are split up. We want time to devote Il
the publication of our own land from the vicious
policy of foreign countries. How can we Dc
this, when around our polls, at every election, il
heard the Babel-like discord of thousand tongues
each speaking different language, in which ou1
own is scarcely distinguishable-and we see :
thousand faces, on which the impress of nature
has stamped foreigner, each and every one claim
ing to administer and to make laws for US W.
say again, prepare in time, and at once, for re-
peal of the naturalization laws.

stated, that "Col r. M. Johnson has declared

Col. johnson has made no such declaration, and
maugre the entreaties and caolery of certain lead

of the party, it will be because he is jostled out
of it by certain aspirants and their agents, and
the old hero will not tamely submit to such UNI
