How 10 be Naruralized.

The approach of a Presidential election always
awakens the desire among foreign residents to
be naturalized. This year is no exception to the
| rule. The business Of making voters is piled
with great diligence in all the large cities, and
is not neglected in the inland towns To all it
may be interesting to know what is requisite to
the naturalization of foreigner.
The general rule is that the applicant must
have resided in the United States for five wears
next preceding his admission TO citizenship. and
at least one year in the State where his applica-
ton is made. OF this he must satisfy the Court
by the testimony of two citizens. lie must also
show by the certificate of some court having iu-
risdction of the matter, that he declared his in
tention to become citizen two years, at least,
before his application for admission
There are two exceptions to the general rule
Ii the applicant a minor when he arrived in
this country, and lived here three years before
reaching the age of twenty-one years, he may be
admitted after having resided here FIVE years. and
become OF full age, without making any prelimi-
nary declaration of his intention to become
citizen Any alien of the age of twenty-one
years, who has enlisted in the armies of the
United States, either regular or volunteer forces,
and been honorably discharged may be admitted
to become citizen on his petition, without any
previous declaration of his intention, and with
out being required TO prove more than one years
residence in the United States previous to his
application
In all cases, proof of the good character of the
applicant is necessary. In some instances-not
many-the want OF this has caused applicants to
be rejected.

Gentlemen In accepting your invitation to
become candidate for Congress in this district,
on the Labor Union platform, did 80 solely with
the view of presenting and discussing our prin-
ciples before the people of the district Shortly
after my acceptance l was called to attend the
National Labor Congress in New York, which
with some private business affairs that could not
be neglected, has occupied my time until very
reeently, when it was manifest that the people
had become so excited, organized and arrayed
against each other under the leaders of both the
old parties. that it was impossible to get them to
give audience to the paramount question of the
natural rights of Labor, which are now imperiled
by the insidieus schemes of an unscrupulous
money oligarchy, and which, if not overthrown,
will as certainly subvert this as it has every 9TH
or free government that was ever instituted
have therefore concluded to withdraw from
the canvass. In doing so do not yield parti-
Gle OF the interest have heretofore felt in the
cause, nor of faith in its ultimate triumph. Be-
lieving as do that it is the cause Of Justice, hui
manity, morality and religion, 1 shall continue
to advocate and support it until the end.

THE FATE OF SOME LOYAL" WITNESSES
Mrs. Surratt was hanged as an Accomplice in the

four men-Baker, Montgomery. Cleaver and Con.
Over-precious scsundrels Baker ia new dead
Montgomery is now in prison for embezzement
Cieaver has been convicted of IN infamous Of

Mrs Surrast's daughter from seeing the Presi-

ITO JAMES HowRs, Esq, tayette Indiana:
"DEAR SIR: have recei ed your letter, in
which Won ask me If | would endeayor to have
the constitutionality of the Reconstruction acts
tested by the Supreme Court before proceeding
to treat them as null and void. In answer say
that the vital principle of the Reconstruction
acts has already been decided to be uneonstitu-
tiona null and void, by the Supreme Court, the
whole bench concurring in the case of Milligan
and Bowles which went up from the State of
Indiana on a writ of habeas corpus.
''In that case it was decided in the plain Ian
guage of the Constitution, that the Government
could not establish martial law in time of peace,
or try citizen by the military commission or
court-martial The Reconstruction acts, social
ed. stand on martial law, and nothing else. 1t is
the essence of these acts They were prepared
and put III execution in time Of profound peace,
in defiance of the unanimous decision of the Su-
prame Court. to which / have referred and they,
and all that has been done under them, are null
and void.
"a case was made under these acts-the case
of McCardle, of Missssppi-and brought before
the Supreme Court; and it is we'll know that the
Court was ready to declare these acts unconsti-
tutional, when Congress passed another act to
deprive the Supreme Court of its Jurisdiction,
and openly attempted to intimidats the Judges by
threats of remodeling the Court.
"The Supreme Court, in another case-that of
Cummings, of Missouri-decided that the dis.
reimbursement of the Southern States by an act
of Congress- was u bill of attainder and an &c
post Jacto law, both of which were forbidden IN
express terms by the Constitution. Even the
Radicals admit, in their Chicago platform, that
the states alone have the right to decide who
shall be entitled to suffrage within the states;
and yet Congress has assumed to take the right
from the white people and give it to the negroes
within the Southern States.
"The r. construction acts violate the Consti-
tstion in all these particulars, and it has been
already so decided by the Supreme Court. The
Constitution says the military shall always be
subordinate to the civil authority, but these acts
have superseded all civil authority, AID erected
military governments at the south. Do you want
decision of tn. Supreme Court to show that this
is unconstitutional? Are those who say that
the military is subordinate to the civil authority
revoutionistsr Are those who demand the
restoration of the trial by jury, which has been
suppressed in the south by the reconstruction acts
reyolutionists? Are those who claim the benefit
of the great writ of right, the hobeas corpus,
which is denied to 100000 Of our people by
the infamous Reconstruction acts, to be branded
as revolutionsts3
