The examination of
BENJAMIN d. ROSENBERG
on two compia ints Of selling fraudulent nstu.
rslizstion papers, was to have been begun on
Thursday last, but was postponed until ten
O'Clock this morning.
The apartment of United States Com missioner
Osborn, before WHOM he was carried, was
flooded with the amazed Democracy.
Meanwhile the Jammany Hall Sachems have
not relaxed their efforts to thwart the Registrars
in their duty, and to inuudate the city with
fraudulent naturalization papers.

and Abraham Il. Lawrence, the "Ring' lawyer
The State Central Committee has issued a
circular offering reward of five hundred dol
lars for the conviction of every man guilty of
naturalization forgery.
The Republican Naturalization Committee
has had at work amateur detectives, who have
been making notes OF the process of naturaliza.
tion In our courts, and have discovered strange
doings there.
According to their observations unnumbered
shoals of fraudulenty paturalized foreigners
have already been metamorphosed into voters
In some instances the Tammany myrmidons
have waylaid the passers-by at the City Hall,
lugged in men ana boys to the old Sherif's
Office, and insisted on their names and ad-
dresses.
Papers were then filed up with their
names as applicants, and those that refused
their signatures were buiied aud intimmidated
and in one or two instances suffered personal
violence aud confinement
Be we men and suffer such dishonor!
That is the burden, now that Rosenberg, the
head and front of the Tammany frauds, has
been arrested and Is awaiting trial.
A queer case of
INTERNATIONAL ROBBERY
has just been unearthed.
Some months ago Edward Masters, a mer-
chant in Birmingham, England, consigned to
his brother Walter, of Liverpool, $500 worth of
goods.
Being too ill to accompany the goods and see
them properly bestowed, he gave note of
delivery TO one Richard Gardner, brother-iu-
law, who, receiving them in Liverpool, con-

things were, photographed 10 Superintendent

Up 10 the present time, his care and his cable

address the United States Democratic LEGION
and prove TO them the absu1dlty of The Repub-

Ever since John Allen came so near being sent
up, the
WATER STREET REvIvALs
have gone down. The Superintendent of City
Missions, Rev. Mr.. Mingins, and his agents have
visited upwards OF 1000 am'hes in that locality,
and the result OF such Investigation is that
scarcely d score of people we're found who had
attended these revivals, go called. The right
