of that body, born III foreign country could
not produce the proper record evidence Of his
citizenshp-ihe Court of Sessions in forming a
Grand Jury in the early part Of the week ex-
cluded all naturaized citizens who could not
produce their papers. The correctness Of this
action we presume one will question. Al
first, however. quite a number of our natural
lied citizens who had lost their papers, and
some Of whom have been residents Of this county
Tor near five years, were very Indignant and
were half inclined TO believe that it was Know
Nothing move. They were soon disabused oil
this idca however. We do not know when we
have seen great excitement created in So
short time about anything. SO far the Know
Nothings concerned, are inclined TO the
opinion that in county in the State will less
material be found for the enlargement of that
party. Our soil is not suitable for its growth
and the air hereabouts altogether too pure.
