Mr.. Adams, in the Senate, yesterday, intro
duced bill proposing to extend the period OF
probation required BY the naturalization laws
from Eve to twenty-one years. he explained
that the bill was prospective in its character,
and not designed to affect persons now resi-
dents Of the United States. II was referred to
the Committee on the Judiciary.
Cliugman, the House of Representa-
tiyes. asked leave to introduce Q joint resoln-
ton, prefaced by preamble, requesting the
President Of tho United States to tender to the
bellieerents in Europe the mediation Of the
United States in such .uanner as, in his judg-
ment, may seem likely to lead to pacifica-
ton. The House refused TO suspend the rules
for an introduction of the resolution.
During the consideration of a series Of reso-
lutions to refer the various branches OF the
Presidents annual message to the appropriate
committees, Mr.. 6iddings attacked that docu
meut because of its omissions on the slavery
question, and complained that not even the
word isshyeryo was to- be found in the mes
sage. He repeated, for the hundredth times
some q his stereotyped remarks on that sub
iect; but nobody deigned TO reply to him, not
withstlnding bis amiable invitation to honora'
BILE members to plunge into free discussion
on matters and things in general, and the negro
question in particular.
