The natives OF Lowell had meeting at City Hall
last night, which, as far as regards numbers, was
very respectable. The Chairman of the meeting in
iroduced to the audience man from Charlestown,
VINO was very ambitious to impress upon his hear
ers the facts that there nohopes for the republic,
but by the wings and democrats deserving their own
party and uniting with the natives, In driving the
foreigners from our shores. The speaker was quite
eloquent in his remarks upon the OF the par
ty in the State so far, and had doubt that they
would be able at the next election in November to
carry their candidates for Governor and Lieut. CO.
vernon by large majority.
vGeorge Tyler, the editor of the native organ in
Boston, next took the stand lie was for the twen-
y-one years system, and nothing else y his views
were that 1t was unconstitutional tor foreigners to
hold Offices vote as they now did, and concluded
by giving Col Schoulor, Of the Courier his views
OF his course of the leaders of the wing party
here, and insisted that the Colonel was not natur
aiised citizen.
The Hon. George Ford, of Penn, followed. He
succeeded In getting of some stale election jokes,
which appeared amazingly to please the numerous
boys Upon the whole, native Americanism is con-
sidered dead failure here. There was very little
enthusiasm. and probably fifty out Of the raj
hundred present will vote for the party
The wings OF Lowell will hold a caucus this even-
ing, at the same place. 1t ls understood that several
distinguished wings will be present to address the
meeting. The wings muster strong as party here,
we shall be present to see how things work, and
probably give an account Of the proceedings.
The Herald has very large circulation IN this
journal out of the city-the Weekly particularly,
which is taken by some three hundred of the fami-
lies and operatives; indeed, they say that it is the
only New York paper that be relied upon in re-
uard IN fins al nd pfh her Inn ne uyo
There has been much excitement Tor some time
IN regard to the swnding operations of certain IN
sviduas connected with the new Freewill Baptsts
Church You may recoect that 1t was built under
the auspices of certain Elder, who borrowed sums
ofmoney from the operatives and others, from 800
TO $1,000, and gave what was called the Corpora
ton notes. Well, this Corporation Association one
day became bursted-up community, which, conse-
quently, ruined many OF the poor factory girls, who
had invested their moneys on the assurance Of the
interested party that 1t was saler with them than in
The banks. Finally one OF the victims had recourse
10 law, which has once, for wonder, decided in
favor of the wronged But it is supposed they will
not recover more than twenty-five per cent on the
dollar which is certainly better than nothing. Some
OF the most eminent lawyers in the State were en-
gagged by the partles-among them, b. F. Butler,
Esq, for plaintiff; John Robinson, Esq, tor elders
and church.
The weather has been very pleasant and mild for
the season-to to-day resembles more day IN June
than one in the middle OF October
