A Correspondent says,
He is informed, that the assertion in the Aurora, "that nearly one-half of the Corporation of the German Society are Members of the German Republican Society," is false—but certain he is, that if it is not false—it is scandalous.
Our Correspondent further remarks,
That if passing the resolution for excluding them from holding their meetings in the School-House, would be a condemnation of themselves, "they are condemned already," by a standing law of the Incorporation; and it has been only by evading that law, that they have intruded themselves into the House heretofore.
