an address to the people of Florida, and have
opened subscription books. 1t is estimated that
the grading of the road will not cost more than

PERsITTISS ALIENS TO IIoLD REAL ,EsThTr-
On the 9th instant. in the Senate Of Massachu-

mon wealth to hold real estate passed TO a third

upon declaring their intention to become citi-
struck out. The chairman of the com

similar 10 that recommended had been adopted in
many Of our sister States. Ia s.mc of them, he
said, Ohio, Michigan, Florida, and louisiana,
the disabilities Of aicnBgc in respect to real estate
are entirely removed; ia others, as Connecticut,
New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Indiana,

hitting real estate, but subject TO some qualiica

ing: In Of these States the quantity OF land
which an alien hold is limited; in others, &C
tual residence in the State the United States is
necessary for him. In some, a certain length Of
residence is called for; in several declaration of
the paftys intention TO become a citizen Of the
United States is essential; and ia few alien enc
mics are expressly denied the privilege Of becom-
ing land owners. The policy, where it had been
adopted, the chairman says, had in no case been
receded from.

We are at loss to see what difference there
is in the marketable value of these certificates
We set both down at nil. We placed KIN
KEL's notes at that mark when they first APP
peared, and do the same with kossUTH's with
equal confidence. If one is ''nonsensical
piece Of paper" SO is the other Each offers very
large nominal securty-each pledges the credit
of a country with no better authority than the
will Of an individual-each depends upon the
personal integrity of two or three men, Of
whose ability or honesty as financiers the world
knows nothing. For aught we know to the
contrary, kINKEL is as reputable in his pri
vate character and transactions as kossUrH;
kIEKEL has endured nearly, if not quite, as
much martyrdom as kossuTH; and assuredly
republic in Germany is as probable an event as
republic in Hungary. Were we compelled
to choose between them, we should be disposed
to give the preference to the German chances.
But being happily exempted from the alterna-
tive. we repudiate both schemes, as alike worth
less Both are bubbles, blown up to catch the
unwary. If their authors displayed mutual
confidence, and worked tremendously together,
the pockets of our citizens might be endangered
but being hostile 10 each other, and distrustfu
of each others credit and honesty, there is
slight occasion for extended alarm. The loans
are,- in fact, at once the bane and antidote;
though respect for the illustrious men whose
names they bear restraints ms from indicating to
which Of the schemes these terms respectively
belong.
