GENTLEMEN IL am too i'll 70 60 10 Al
bany to attend the meeting At Twsddle
Hall to morrow evening. There can be but
one view OF the duty OF the government
With regard to our naturalized citizeps.-
We invite foreigners to come here, We urge
them TO become citizens. We charge them
with oil the duties and burdens We put up
on these born in our land. Many millions
have acted upon this invitation, and they
make up large part Of our social and Polit-
ical system. The necessity Of protecting
these citizens is so clear that no nation
which is not hostile to US in spirit ard IN
purpose will fail TO conceds 1t. When we
ask European governments to give up relic
Of 4 dead feudsl system, We do not ask
them 10 make any sacrifice it 10 useless to
them and hurtful aud annoying to US II
il to their interests to give W claim 20
property in men living in ether lands. We
know that naturalizsd citizens cherish an
affection for their native land. Il 10 great
gain politically, socially and commercially
to England, ireland, Germany and ether
European nations, that many living in the
United States, who were born in Europe,
cherish love for the land OF their birth,
as well rs for the homes Of their adoption.
Why should this love be turned 10 hate by
an impotsnt vet hateful claim upon them
The interests Of commerce and civilization,
~ well % the dnty of the country, are 20
clear that refusal on the part of any gov
eminent q admit the rights Of naturalized
citizens should be treated as an act OF hos
tility and hstred, ard should be met by .
refusal on our part TO make with them any
commercial alliance; or, if necessary, to re-
fuse to hold with them any political inter
course. This question must DO met boldly,
or We shall, in the end. get entangled with
political knots which can only be cut by the
sword Truly yours, &c,

The canning Of corn in families 90 gen.
orally falls that We cannot recommend the
trial. The next best thing to canned corn
ii that which is properly dried. The first
essential is good corn, and the next 10 to
dry il carefully before il gets too old. Mrs.
NJ. l.. Gage, Of Rose county, Ohio, commu.
Dicates the following sensible ideas about
preparing it: ut is wonder that 90 few
should have any thing but field corn for tn
bie use and for drying there 10 . still
greater contrast between the common field
corn and the garden varieties. have been
used for years to drying corn. Boil the
green ears a minute OF two, Just to harden
the milk. then cut from the cob and spread
on . cloth in the sun for two days, taking
it i'll At night /; It viii then keep any here
When cooked. it is better to soak ita few
hours, and boil in the same water. In cold
weather oil that is wanted for . week or
two may be wet II cooks quicker and
tastes better. A little milk and flour boil

not given up drying corn, but for two years
past have put some down in salt, which
gives another variety, and Is moro quickl y

ening it, and then ii was comparatively
tasteless, but now boil tho corn in one
water q minute or two, turn the water OF,
add few sliced potatoes, boil until they
are done, drain Oft the water, and add
cream or butter. We think this prepare

corn does. In sailing, cut the green corn
