JULY 8, 1852.
I see by the
telegraphic report, that at a meeting of the Native-American party at Trenton,
N. J., this week, Mr. Webster was nominated for the Presidency. This makes his
position supremely ridiculous. It is an insignificant party, founded on the
narrow basis of being born in America or out of
it. If Mr. Webster does not notice it, there stands the nomination to show his
power. If he declines it, everybody will laugh at him.
