rue NATURALIZATION LAWS.

We have already stated that q recent law
passed bs the Legislature of Maine, had re-
ceived the Executive assent, and was in full
force. 1t provided as follows:
mo Court created by The authority of this
State, however extended its jurisdiction, or
by whatever name be designated, nor any
Iunctionary pertaining TO said Court, shall
hereafter hold or exercise any Jurisdiction in
the administration Of the law Of Congress
commonly known as the Naturalization Law /;
nor shall said Court take cognsanco Of any
application Of any alien to be admitted 10 be-
come citizen, TO make any record or grant,
or issne any certificate or other document Of
paper, whereby any alien shall he naturalized
or made a citizen Of the Unitsd States; pro-
vided that all cases where application has
already been made aud fled in any Court,
shall be saved from the operation Of the
foregoing section"
This law would seem to be sustained by a
careful construction ofthe rights Of the States.
The Court of Common Pleas of Franklin
county, Ohio, has decided that Congress can
csnfer no judicial powers on State Courts,
anu that they are under no OollSAllon 10 per-
form the act of naturalization as prescribed
by the law of the United States In deliver
ing his opinion, Judge Bates held that the
law was clear and the authorities conclusive
that Congress could confer no jurisdiction on
the State Courts, TO act judicially under the
naturalization laws, and that naturalization,
as the law stood, was judicial act bu; as
all the State Courts throughout the Union,
/ for more than fifty years, had exercised the
power his Court. whatever might be its in
divdual opinion, sitting us an inferior tribu-
nal would not undertake 10 decide the mat
ter, as If it were an original question, after so
| long an acquescence, and so many rights
having become vested under il. The Pitts
burg Gasete in alluding 10 this subject says
| that the clause in the Constitution, concern
| ing naturalization, gives to Congress, simply
| the power to enact uniform laws upon the
subject, ami imposes no duties whatever upon
| the States. Under this ruling the Supreme
/ Court. therefore. State Courts may refuse, al
their pleasure. TO regard the legislation oI
Congress in the matter OF naturalization ~
mandatory upon them. AID the State Legis
latures may, whenever tley deem il wise
prohibit the State Courts from exercising the
powers imposed npon them by the nataraliza
tion laws

bricks, when the first section ofthe bill passed
second reading, made motion to go into
Committee of the Whole for the purpose of
substituting the stringent license bill intro
duced by Mr., Price, early in the session, for
the bill under consideration. The motion
has been discussed, but notacted upon. The
choice is now between the two bills, one which
amends the existing license system, and the
other entirely repeating it.

RIOT IN tINcINNATrI.

CINCISNATTI, April esterday evening
large party of rowdies, armed with clubs,
guns and pistols, went 20 the Lafayette House,
at the corner of Mill and Front streets, kept
by u German, named Jacob knight, and de-
manded liquor. They were furnished with
beer, when they commenced breaking the
glasses, knocked Mr.. Knight senseless, in
suited his wife, and assaulted tho children.
They then left the premises, and encountering
u number Of Germans on the sidewalk, as
saulted them knocked down and beating three
and stabbng another, so that he is not eX.
pected to recover.
The party then returned and drove the fam
lily from the house. Five Of the persons cI-
gagged in the proceedings have been arrested.
The occurrence caused much excitement and
the Germans, arming themselves, guarded the
streets over the canal the whCle night per-
hitting none but Germans 10 pass. The
Mayor and police did nothng--the First ar
rest having only been made to-day.

A Touching Custom.

A common practice in Paris, which i'm

or taking off the hat when a funeral passes.
a writer on this subject relates the following:
oOme years since, we were one of that
rushing crowd ever Touring nm and down
Broadway. When in front Of old ST. Paurs.
all eyes were attracted by the appearance of
the crew of the French war vessel. u, Rel.
Poule, which then visited the United STATE.

scene when we discovered in that though,less,
busy, hurrying crowd, man of foreign birth.
evidently poor and friendless, under whose
arm was carried atiny coffin, and by his side
the stricken mother. They were in search
OF burial for their babe, and were iostled and
unhecded in that gay torrent of humanity, un-
I'll they met these hardy, tempest tossed mari

Of the household who ate the food containing
the powders, but did not effect those who es.
chewed the bread, biscuit, &C., raised wiih
them. We are aware that this fact alone
proves nothing, but it may serve as a hint for
further investigation.
The quantity of saleraius used in many parts
OF our country is amazing. Ten or fifteen
pounds year is not an unusual amount for
each Of hundreds Of families, we presume that
IN some sections Of the west, where short
cake is the universal daily bread, the allowance
TO each household far exceeds this limit, and
we are inclined 10. favor DIR. lcott's view, that
of the 300, 900 children who die, annually in
the United States, large proportion owe their
fatal illness to the use of this pernicious salt.
Since we wrote the foregoing, we have been
informed Of an experiment conducted by an in
teliigent physician in Ontario County in this
State, with saleratus as an alternative. He
produced paralysis of the tongue with it. We
are also credibly assured that an eminent prac-
toner in the city of New York, has after care
ful observation come 10 the conclusion that the
terrible increase of Paralysis in the United Sta.
tes, is due TO the general use of saleratus in

when under full blast, at the strike of each
hour, it is expected that watch will be COM
pleted, i. e., twelve per day. The cost Of

the trade.
A hasty visit did not enable US to inspect so
minutely the different departments as we could
have wished, but we saw quite enough to i'm
press us with the conviction that when private
enterprise is brought to bear upon an article
of such universal use, every true American
should give it hearty and liberal encourage
mens, especially when no sacrifice of money is
asked, only helping hand. II it is an Amer
can axiom that 'if you love yourN country-if
you desire always TO get good wages--use on
ly the products Of American labor'-then we
may expect all who feel an interest in Ameri-
can manufactures will feel pride in carrying
an American watch.
AS we have stated above, Mr.. A. L. Den
nison gives his personal superintendence at
the mandatory. The qualifications of this
gentleman for the post, and his undivided in
terest in the concern, cannot fail of being pro-
ductlve of good both to himself and partners,
and we shall chronicle with pleasure hereaf-
ter the prosperity of an establishment in which
every one feels an interest.-Bos Sat- Zee.
