COALITION BETWEEN THE NA-
TIVE AMERICANS AND WHIGS
OF PHILADELPHIA!
A great deal of virtuous indignation has been
expended by the Wings in reference to what
they have called the corruptions of the Demo-
cratic party III their State and local judicial
nominations. 1t quite distressing to see
how deeply our moral opponents were moved by
these imaginary corruptions, and how the degene-
rate spectacle was mourned by the melancholy
JERENIAHs of the Wing press. The Sunday DIS
patch was, like Niobe all tears, though the eve
towards Wing rascality remained carefully closed
while that which glowered upon the Democrats
became microscopic in its efforts to detect and
70 magnify their manifold sins. Judge Campbell
was first subjected TO the fiery furnace: and then
Mr.. Bradford. The Dispatch, true TO its nature
Ike the North american and the Sun saw all
kinds Of notes on the one side; and nothing but
purity and piety on the other-passing over the
GalphInlsm Of Meredith as coollv as il did over
the Aboluonism of Jessdp. Within the last
week or two, however, series of intrigues have
been going on between the Wings and Natives in
regard TO their judicial nominations for this CITY
and county; and it has finally assumed an aspect
calculated to arouse the indignation of every
honest man. First, We have the deliberate vio-
lation of his word and honor and his written
pledge by Judge Kelly, and the acceptance of
him by the Wings and Natives, under the aus
pices of W. B. Reed, who holds his Office as Dis
u1ct Attorney by virtue of 4 decision to which
Kelly was party. By dint of hard work the
leaders OF the two parties agreed upon the same
ticket for one Court, and upon two candidates
for Judges Of the Other-remaining at issue with
respect 10 the third. The Natives now insist that
the third shall Ne given 20 thena and NJ. Thayer
who the Wing nominee must be induced 70
back out and let Slr. Allison, the Native no1ni-
nee, have his place-so that the odious bargain
may be quite complete The last hair viii break
the camels back, and this new proposal 10 de-
SIade wing mayer, ana 10 elevate the Ma
twist Allison upon his shoulders, has caused the
independent men of the Whig party to rebel
Such Wings as Gibbons Williams and Hazlehurst
may stand, and have stood a good deal at the
hands OF Reed and Johnston; but they refuse the
last dose And why! Because they know that
the consideration in this whole bargain is that
the Native vote shall be given to the Abolitionist
Johnston, and the Wing vote TO the Native can
didate for Judge! So that the Judiciary is to be
used as means 10 help TO re-elect to the Gu
bernato1al chair who is denounced by
patriotic citizens all over the country and whose
election would be blow at our best interests
such as 1t would require years to recover from
The chief plotter IN this most shameful transac-
ton is universally believed to be w. b. Reed. of
United States Bank. Buckshot War and Lehigh-
do-better nemory-one of the same PECKsNIFFs
who have been 80 loud in denunciation of imagi-
nary corruptiOns In the Democratic nominations
We hear II stated that Mr.. Thayer, the Whig
nominee, who Is sought to be made use of by
this reckless partizan, refuses ratify the bar
gam, and threatens exposure of the whole
plot.
Look at this, Democrats you who have been
called upon to vote against your judicial nomi-
nations-and remember that those who do this
are now trying to humiiiate and disgrace the
Judiciary by making it a mere footstool for an
Abolitionlst to attain the highest power in the
State.
