HE LocoFocos AND the "NATivEs. THE de-
mocrats OUT west are using with great energy the
movement of the natives for the purpose OF
stimulating the natuvazed voters into jealous sup
port OF Polk and Dallas. The following address
issued By the democrats of Chicago, Illinois, Is
sample OF the manfestoes issuing from the loco
foco camp in all quarters:-
To QUA german FELLOW CITIZENS We address our
seivesio you regarding the political question son.Dnsa
with the next election for Stste and County oHceIf, 10
take place on the FIRST Monday Of August

Here follow the . of their csnditates)
Gsrnans you nave quit your fatlierland, sought and
found home in The United States ard We are convinced
of your determination 10 maintain the proui name Of
the land oil the iIee and the home Of the brave"
Arouse. then, arouse and draw round the Tag Of De
mocracy Your bitter enemies the wings have tried to
deprive you OF the right OF voting and the benefit Of pre-
emption Men who despise you account Of the iand
OF your birth, making busy pre- for
rying through thsr old declarations or scheme that but
the rich and well born ahl take in the gov
ernment What shameful doctrine The democrats re-
JeclNhem they proclaim equal and strict Jusice 10 all
10 spread such principles, recommend the above
named men for your support

interests in the country Rally around the democracy
Remember the fest Monday Of August aid show these
wings that you are ireemen.
There is no doubt that this system of tactics will
aid the democratic materially mot only in the
west, but throughout the Union. The Catholics
have very large vote in this region, and certainly
the wings cannot now intrigue for it with the same
success as under the regime of The small potatoe
O'Connell-Ex-G Governor Seward
ARE WE NEVER TO HAVE POLICE lit actually
seems as il the rosues and ruffians of the city had
conspred TO shame the corporation out of their
gross neglect OF duty aud infdei,y to their solemn
promises. Not day passes over our heads that we
do not hear of some Outrage or daring robbery
We think that the highway robbery Of Mr.. Pow
ell, in Fulton street, the other night, must have
thoroughly alarmed every one. Here, in the very
centre of the city, in one Of our chief streets, and
within a few yards of Broadway, at no very adj
vanced period in the night, gentleman is knock
ed down and kicked till he is left insensbe, by
three ruilians--his watch stolen, his pocketsrfed
and he left for Dead without the slightest chance
OF assistance from the waichmen. And then, as if
to discover still more clearly the unprotected con-
dion in which the lives and property of the citizens
has been left, these rulians are found burgla-
rious'y entering the house of DR.. Fawcett, in which
MIR. Powell had taken refuge, and, on the SEIZURE
OF one OF them, who was caught in the act by Mr.
Moran who fortunately discovered him, a despe-
rate conflict takes place in the street between The
robber and his captors, and is continued for quar-
ter of an hour-and yet no Waterman makes his
appearance. and at last the ruffian is lodged in the
Tombs by the gentlemen themselves.
All this certainly discovers shocking and
alarming state of affairs in this city. If it do not
convince any one Of the utter absence Of all pro.
lection for the lives and property Of the citizens,
nothing can. Murder-highway robbery-burglary
-outrages Of all descriptions are committed in our
stree is at all hours of the nighrogues are released
on straw-bail, or walk quietly out Of prison--and
yet The "natlve" corporation talk Of their city re-
FORMS their vast and increasing effos for the pub.
