A SIGN OF PRoGREss.-Congress has just
passed by unanimous vote, ia each House, a
bill SO amending our Naturalization laws thai
any immigrant vino has had residence ior
five years in this country, and over two years
past declared his purpose to become cit-
zen, shall henceforih be entitled to natural-
zalion, although he may in the meantime
have been once or many times out of the
country BY the law, as it has hitherto stood.
no man could legally be natural zed who had
not been in the country for the preceding five
years without interruption, so that trip to
Montreal or even crossing TO Table Rock al
Niagara Falls, viiiaed the whole previous
residence, and rendered farther FIVE yea $
probation necessary; and still The applicant
must not 60 out of the country until The Ave
years had expired. Oh course this exaction
only stopped the conscientious aud scrnpu-
lous; the reckless took the oath prescribed
and were ia .uralized, though each had been
dozen times out OF the country. A mum
Der who have hitherto been dSbaired will
now be entitled 10 naturalization: but the
best feature OF the act is the evidence ii af-
fords of the utter pros;rltion of The pros

CARRYING OUT A WHIM.-Not many months
since, lady who resided in Providence, en-
couuiered in the railroad cars an old gentle.
man, who seemed TO regard her with an air
of unusual interest. Finally, assuming the
privilege of age, he veniured 10 accost her,
and they entered into conversation. Before
parting, he begged permission to call on her
al her house. His deferenial manner, his
advanced age, aud his frank expression OF
interest, though stranger, in her welfare,
were so many pleas in her favor, that she
replied TO his request, that she would be ve-
ny glad to see hun, and did not doubt that
her husband also would be. "What is your
address," She gave i: and they parted He
called on her the next day, and had an in
tervew with her, in the presence of her hus-
band, and asked the lady's permission 10
send her his miniature. She turned to her
''lord and MASTER" who at once acquiesced
in the strangers proposal Not many days
after, the miniature was sent-an admirable
work of art, set round with costly diamonds
and accompanied with bracelet Of great
value Husband and wife were ss,onished
as may be supposed. Some weeks elapsed
before they heard again from The stranger.
| A short time since, he called. and the inter-
view was TO this effect: "Have YOU any OBJ
lection 10 moving to New York;" "None at
all, if we could better our situation. "What
is your present income, Mr.. T?''
i A very moderate sum was named,-
I s:Humph! ! have house in New York for
which want occupants. | sail for Europe
next week, and you shall come and take pos
session." "You are very kind, my venerable
(rend,'' said Mr.. T., s-But We are very com
Portable here; don't know that could af
ford TO enter into The arrangement you pro-
pose" 81 will very soon obvate tina
objection" replied The old gentleman
!, will at once make over TO you the sum OF
5 two hundred thousand dollars" His hear
ers looked as if they half suspected they
were dealing with fugitive of some insane
asylum. But there was no insanity abou
it, The offer was made in good faith-wa
accepted-and has been redeemed to tn,
letter. Mr.. and Mrs. T. have removed Il
New York, and taken possession of fin
, house in -- street. Their bene facto
has gone TO Europe. He will probably max
, his newly formed friends the heirs Of hi
large wealth. Mrs. II. was, we learn, for
merv an insIruclress in one of the publ
!. schools of neighboring city. The charac
Ter O the parties, and the history of the al
fair, thus far preclude the imPu'ation of an
improper motive. The cause OF the oil
4 geniIeman's conduct is as much mystery
/. the lady herself as 10 her friends. He seem
10 have taken a within, and TO have carried
+ out. So much only is apparent. But tim
. may throw more ligh, upon the Affair."

GEN. TAYLOR IN New HAMPsHIRE.-The
whig members of the New Hampshire legisla-
ture held meeting at Concord on the 22d inst.
at hich Daniel Abbot, of Nashua, presided,
and suitable resolutions were adopted, ratify-
ing the nomination of Taylor and Fillmore
We give one of them below:
Resolved. That we have entire confidence
In the integrity, purity, frmness and patriot
Ism of General ZACHARY TAYLOR, and that the
same traits of character which have commend
ed him to the enthusiastic admiration of the
country as soldier, are guarantees of his quail
ifcation for the exalted place in the councils
of the nation which is soon to be assigned to
him by the suffrages of the Union"
The Dover Enquirer says, in the course O
an article approving of the proceedings of thi.
meeting:
So far as we can learn, the nomination O
Taylor, although he was not the first choice o
the great body of the Wings of this State, i
regarded by them, as it is all over the country
as the very best that could have been made, al
things considered; the only one, in fact, b
which the country could be relieved from tn
rule of the rotten and corrupt party whic
placed the present unworthy incumbent of III
Presidency in office, and is now striving to ell
evate to the same place a still more unworth
successor.
That Gen. Taylor will be trium phantly cleo
ted, admits of hardly doubt. The locofoco
themselves feel that his election cannot be pre-
vented. They see it to be inevitable; and thou
sands of their own party all over the country
will be found beneath the standard OF the ma
who NEVER sURRENDERs.

THE WHOLE THING INA NUTSHELL

THE WHOLE THING IN NUTSHELL
The Boston Courier, in announcing lis deter
mination to support the nominees of the
Wig Convention, says:
1--WE take the matter as we find IT, and il
comes TO our hands in a very plain shape
Shall the Wings support the Wing candi-
date, or by Withholding that support, throw
'all their strength on the side of their oppo-
snen,s? This is the true state of the mat
ster, and no re6neme n,s or sophisticatIons
'can put ii in any other shape that can be
plain TO the common sense of common
smen."
Every Wing paper in Boston, and nearly
every one in New England, now display the
names of TAYLOR and FILLMORE.

ftTEven the New York Sun, Beach's
Sun, that unsc rupulous organ of Locotocoism
comes out against Cass and acknowledges
the certainty OF Taylor's election. The fol-
lowing is an extract from the last number oil
that paper:
The nomination of Martin Van BuIon by
the radical Democracy has struck chill in
to the very vials of IIunkerism. Tammany
Hall -"Old Tammany," that used TO ring
with the concord of united voices, harmonious
TO the dicta alton of Iegences and regular
caucusses and conventions, is as solitary as
"Some banquet hall deserted"
Even if Gen. Taylor. with his ''litile more
grape,n was not in the field, TO be halloed
into the While House in spite of parties
Gen Cass would find formidable foe in
Mr.. Van Bnren and the free soil party.
The mantle OF Sas Wright, who would
undoubtedly have been the Democratic nom
nee had he lived, has fallen upon Martin
Van Buren,, and though, he may not be cleo
ted in 1913, he will probably kill his ole
friend Cass so dead, that, as Virginiar
wrote to friend in the North, he will need
to inquire after the election 10 know that he
has run at all.

Gen. CAss's present position may be YER,
well illustrated by IN anecdote told OF an OLD

Iating her sensations, she said she felt yer,
much alarmed while daslling over hills and
through valleys. "hnl sic put her trust il
