The act of Naturalization in reality is National
and not State privilege. If even the States were
disposed TO conform their Legislation on this snb-
ject to that Of Congress. the act itself and the
qualifications can alone culanate from that body.
There cannot be two rules, supposing that the PEE
Rod OF residence both in Federal and State legs-
Iation should be precisely the same. Whatever
personalities other than residence, Congress may
choose TO associate with the grant Of the privilege

body. fit chooses to say that the foreigner shall
not enjoy the privilege unless he can read and
write, and furnish testimonials as to character, will
il be pretended that these or other safeguards are
to be disregarded by State legislationY 1t would
then be political solecism, that while the consti-
tuition designed to give Congress exclusive jurs-
dction in this matter Of Naturalization it left with
the Stat es the power to modify or alter the condi-
tion precedent to Naturalization, to accommodate
the separate views Of some thirty odd States.

Naturalization and the Right of Suffrage.

Among the questions which win be opened at
the approaching session Of Congress for perhaps
protracted discussion win be that Of the Natural
zation laws, connected with the right Of suffrage
as now dispensed by the States. II will, as par
" topic, supersede those debates In Congress in
relation to our Federal land laws which sought
10 conciliate foreigners by offering land without
price, to strengthen party attachments. II Is easy
TO perceive that those who were ready TO give
away the public domain, TO secure votes, will be
nverse 10 all amendment Of our Naturalization
laws. There Is natural political affinity between
those who vote homesteads to foreigners and such
as would allow them every possible latitude Of po-
ticai privilege. The association Of ideas Is, con-
sequently, easy between the right Of naturaliza-
lion in the States, and the policy which would
sacrifice our entire national domain for the sake
of political ascendency This Il one of the great
party Issues then, which is to dsplace tariff, In
ternal improvements, national banks, &c. IL opens
field that Is likewise tted to exercise the talent
for constitutional discussions, without which, Con-
gressional debates want attraction for certain
classes Of our politicians. The object Of the
framors Of the constitution, in giving the power
TO Congress TO frame uniform rules Of naturaliza-
ton, will be fully expounded The recent heresy
that the state Legislatures are constitutionally
permitted 10 admit the rights OF citizenship, with
the privilege TO vote after residence for shorter
period than that ized by Congress, will be com
pletely exposed.
Among al the commentators on the Constitu-
ton there Ia entire uniformity that the power to
naturalize In Congress Is not concurrent but ex-
elusive. This power was conceded TO the Federal
Government without objection. There was no
controversy raised on II in the Convention that
framed the Constitution. The complication OF this
power with that Of comforting suffrage by the
States, 10 obtain political influence, has alone in
t1s fnIa nf tho sinh
IL no question among sound thinking statesmen
but what the right to nstursze Is exclusive IN

The Hon. George W. Jones yesterday nomi-
mated the Hon. VIM A. Richardson, as the
Democratic candidate for Speaker The Hon.
Tennessean must have supposed the members
Of the House OF Representatives were either
very stupid, or else very obtuse, as not to per-
ceive that anything in which he might dabble
was essentially Locofocoish. The Democratic
preface to such nomination was superlatively
farcical. Doubtless the caucus selected him as
the usher, to render tho nomination as odious
as possible TO the opposition, and we must say
il such was their intention, no servant ever
discharged his duties more faithfully, and with
more deserved eolat. The peculiar political
sagacity, and parliamentary habits Of the
Tennessean were never more strikingly exhibit.
cd He has so long hammered on the political
anvil that there is but one unceasing sound Of
Locofocoism ringing in his ears, which even
now lulls all his conscientious scruples into
quiet and repose. Mr.. Richardson is tn,
Democratic candidate" and George w. Jones
we presume, is to be the Democratic leader

says the Richmond Wing, about O'clock, a, fire
broke out in the bar room of the Shakespeare
House, on Broad street, and resulted in the de-
struction Of large amount Of property. Tie ORR
gin Of the fire Is unknown. The proprietor of the
house, Mr.. George W. Bradley, was awakened by
his boarders, after the FIRE had gained considerable
Roadway and SO rapid was the progress IF the
flames that 1t was found impossible to saw any
thing Of value. Indeed, IL was with some difhcnty
that the occupants escaped with their lives one
man having to leap from third story window upon
aporch in the rear from whence he rolled down into
the yard without receiving serious injury The drug
store Of Mr. s. NJ Zachrisson, at the corner of Sixth
and Broad streets, was very soon on fire, and al
though every effort was made TO subaue the flames,
the interior was completely destroyed But very
little Of Mr.. Zachrisson's stock was saved. Hean-
while, several small buildings on Sixth street. d.
rectly in the rear, caught fire. and the fremen di-
rected all their energies TO prevent further spread
Of the conaagrstion. The total value Of the pro-
perry destroyed is estimated at frop, $4,000 to
$4,000.
