Alien Infiuence i'm the United States.

Some one has not inaptly described great
cities as sores upon the body polite" This
is harsh and not very elegant expression, but
there is, doubtless, a great deal of truth in it,
especially with reference to the subject of poll
tics. 1t is a singular fact that so many Of the
annual emigrants to these shores prefer to set
tic down amid the filth and obscurity of our
large cities, rather than push forward to the
open lands of the West Thousands thus suf-
fer and star G, who might otherwise live COM
fortably and rise to responsibility as mechanics
or tilers of the soil There seems to be nat
ural affinity between the great body of emil
grants and that kind Of degradation which is
only to be found in densely populated towns.
But even this is not so great an evil as the one
which, under our institutions, naturally flows
from it.
Were this vast annual accession to our pop
ulation to be scattered over the land, though
their aggregate strength might be as great,
their power would be noutralized by such a
distribution of their numbers; while, by swell
ling the ranks of voters in our large cities and
towns, they soon reach a point where they
hold the balance of power, or else control, by
numerical strength alone, the municipal, and,
to great extent, the State elections.
In order that we may be fully understood,
we give below a table showing the relative
number of aliens and natives who make up
the population of our most important cities,
according to the census of 1850, viz:

THE VICTIM OF SLANDER--The investigation of
the circumstances that led to the death of Miss
Mary Jane Lapp, as reported by us on Monday,
has led to the conclusion that the unfortunate
young woman fell victim to the basest ISLANDERS.
Reports were circulated against her character,
which there is every reason TO believe were utterly
destitute of truth--the wicked coinage of that
class of people who are ever busy in spreading
their venom without provocation and these blast
ing calumnies so preyed upon her mind that she
became desperate, and sought q refuge in the
grave She persisted because she could not bear
the pointing Of the finger of scorn that was un-
merited --Phila. Gdx. M
