To c. g. Dstnsold, President N. J. Tine Co, ~ r
SIR: series Of experiments conducted by me,
with the utmost care, during the past three years,
upon all the various paints and artificial prepara-
tions for the preservation Of timber, have led me
TO the important discovery that the White Zinc
Paint, manufacturedby the New Jersey Zinc Com
pany serves as perfect protection against the
ravagcs of the marine worm, and the formation OF
barnaces, whilst no other paint or preparation OF
any kind combines the same protective effect
[ am now preparing full report on this impor-
tant subject to the Bureaus of Yards and DOCKS at
Washington, and shall send with it a complete Sc
ries Of specimens of wood and metal plates, which
were covered with the different paints and pre-
paratons, and then exposed alike for an entire
season, in salt water, opposite this navy yard all
of which illustrates in the most striking manner,
the invaluable qualities and decided superiority OF
your White Zine Paint over all other kinds
paints, especially for marine purposes
: You are at liberty to give full publicity to the
above stated facts which are Of too much impor-
tance to be kept from the naval and commercial
world. am, respectfully, your obedlent servant

Sale Of Daniel Webster,s Properly,

The Webster Executors offered for sale
on the 2Sth ult., the famous Marsh6eld es-
tate and stock upon it. Six or seven hu1-
dred bidders appeared, many from extreme
parts, and among them the prominent far
mers of the Old Bay State.
The real estate WAS divided into eleven
parcels, reserving few rods of land on
each side ofthe "N inslow Burying Ground"

improvements and adurnments, to carry out
which, fair was arld last Fall.

farming. The "WinslOw House" is one ol
the Oldest in the State The lot was bid
of at $l56 per acre, by G. PORTER
Wright, for years the head farmer Of
Marshfeld.
The Mansion House with $40 acres,
known as the "Marsh6eld lot" having upon
il marriage settlement in favor Of Mrs
WEBSTER, was struck off for the nominal
sum Of 5000. This saves "Marsh6eld" to
the family, and ful6ls Mr. WEBsrRR's wish
as expressed in his will in these words:

RoIdRobberY.

A bold robbery was perpetrassd on the
Cleveland cars on Saturday night, March
3lst, upon Mr. s. C Moore, Of N. Y. City,
in the following manner. A genteel look
ing man came 10 the seat occupied by Mr..
NJ. and said it was very warm where he had
been sitting and asked Mr.. NJ if he had any
objections to his occupying the seat beside
him. Mr.. M replied not in the least. The
stranger was at the time eating loEenges
and very kindly offered some 10 Mr.. NJ,
who accepted Two snd ate them. Almost
Immediately Mr. M. fell asleep, from which
he did not awake until the cars arrived in
Cleveland, and feeling quite sick hurried to
his hotel. not thinking any fraud had been
practiced upon bin. He told the landlord
(Mr. John R Surbrug, Johnson House) that
be was sick. Mr.. s. replied that probably
he had travled SO far as to fatigue him and
good nights resi- would set him all right
Mr.. NJ then told him he had eaten some
Iozenges that man gave him, which he
thought made him both sick and sleepy,
that he wanted some supper and would
then retire. While Mr.. NJ was eating bis
supper. Mr.. s. was suspicious that the To-
zenges were for robbery, and Immediately
examined Mr.. Ms pocket and found that
be had actually been robbed Of $275. II

not come TO this city but lef: the cars at the

The American PrerOgatIye.


One Ofthe highest privileges enjoyed and
exercised by the people of the United States
and that which more than all others. dis
tinguishes our country, its government and
institutions above the monarchies and des-
potisms of the Old World, is the right and
privilege of the elective franchise. 1t is the
desire to enjoy freedom, both in speech and
action, and the benefits of free government
which in their own country they are depriv-
ed Of, that induces the oppressed of the
Old World, to seek our shores. After the
requisite time Of probation. with good be-
havior and compliance with the law, they
are permitted on the same ground of eqali-
ty With the native born, 10 discharge oil the
privileges of citizens. When they have
honestly and rightly been declared to be in
the enjoyment Oftbis privilege, no man can
question their right to come TO the ballot
box, and that too with freedom. But we're
all the requirements of the naturalization
laws strictly and to the letter and spirit OF
the trainers intentions, carried out, there
would not be a 1.-THE of the contention now
daily manifested, ever thought Of. There
never would have been this great cry
against foreigners, which is now SO rife
throughout the land, if that dOmineering
and debating spirit they are so ready to
manifest, had been curbed and subdued.-
The native-born Americans cannot bear this
dominant and debating spirit now, any more
than could our forefathers in the days Of
the Revolution. 1t is their peculiar right
and privilege 10 make laws and establish the
rules and terms on which they are willing
to admit the foreign born: if they come here
to enjoy and participate in the benefits Of
our institutions, they certainly should expect
10 conform to the terms proposed, and moi
themselves demand to establish the basis on
which they shouldb be admitted. In all the
large towns and cities of our country the
day of holding an election is by them made
a gala day. They crowd around the polls
and by the manifestation of that spirit SC
repugnant to Americans. assume to teach
the voter for whom he shall deposit his bal
lot. IF ftheir wish is not complied with, be
is assailed and bullied and not unfrequently
kept from voting. By fraud and perjury
many of them receive the necessary papers
declaring them citizeus, while at the SAME
time they know but little more of the na
ture and policy of our institutions than they
do about the government of Patagonia; they
know not after taking the oath what were
the conditions and requirements of it, ant
were it their death warrant nine times ou
of ten, would give their assent and think i
alright This will not always be. Amer
leans are awakening to the realization o
this matter. The naturalization laws mus
be changed. 1t is the prerogative of tb'
native-born 10 enact all laws, and it is th'
duty of the foreign-born to acquiesce in th'
same. Restrictions of such a nature mus
be imposed that will require an intimate &C
quainsance with our institutions before they
can ever be admitted to citizenship. Amer
leans must rule America!
