Berrien, from the com- mittee on the judiciary, to amend the naturalization 1 laws. Thls being subject ol the highest interest just now to many of readers. publish the sub joined synopsis oi the bill from the National Inte- gencer:
 The bill proposes to enact that Collectors of lhe Revenue at all the ports of the UnIied States s5all open and keep books of registry. in which, the request of any alien arriving in the United States, his name, age, statute, etc shall be registered | and certificate of such registry granted to the | said alien
 The Clerks of Courts of the United States may at any time, being at least three years after such regis try, presentation of the certificate there record the declaration of the intention of such alien be-
  grant hlm d certificate of such declaration. Two years after the record of such dec laration, and five years after the registry before mentioned on the exhibition of the certificates of registry and declarations and proof of good character and ai- tachmenl to the Constitution and Government of the United States, in any Court of ihe United States, such alien may be admitted to become a citizen of the United States, certain conditions, the most important of winch appears be that he shall have resided at least one year preceding the application in the State District n which tke Court is held.- No duplicate of such certificates of fcitizenshp re- gslry shall ever be issued, except upon proof in Count and public advertisement of the loss of the ori gnal. Children under sixteen years of age at the time of arrival in the country required pro- duce certificates of registry declaration of inen- ton, if they proved 10 have been five years resi- dent and otherwise entitled.
 The most conservative provision of the bIll is the next in order, viz: That decree of nal turazatou shall be made, certificate of naturalization grant cd, within--monhs before the time Of any eec- tion of President Vice President of the U. States or of the electors thereof, or rwithin--nonths of the time of any general election in the particular State or District in which the application is made; and such decree and certificate shall confer right or privilege oi citizenship whatever, except in the State or District wherein the may be granted, for the term of--nonhs afer the date thereof
 Decrees and certificates discovered to have been obtained by fraud false preIences, may, upon hear ing Court after previous notice, be aside; and all persons cOncerned in such evasion of the laws may be punish,d d as for high m,sdemeanor.
 Persons now in the Unteo States may, at any time within six months after the passage of thls bill, avail themselves of the general prov of It to become naturalzed without the previous regis try required of aliens hereafter arriving in the Unit
