number of native voters, 5l6,745; naturalized

We copy from the New York Express, sta
tistics in relation TO the alleys in the cities in
the State of New York. These are facts, and
clearly demonstrate the political power and in
fiuence OF the alien voting population, and
should be sufficient to convince every lover OF
