gregation. Alter the usual services were gone

for the past six years laborng as missionary on
the western slope of the Rocky Mountains, delivered
highly interesting discourse on the importance of
home mission extension. The reverend gentleman's
remarks were chiefly Illustrative OF that section of
the United States territory where ne had been labor
ing, and showing how much mad been done In the

the United States, which hung in front of the
pulpit, he described what might naturally be
expected IN the lar Western territory before

the populated eastern section OF the coun

which the human race could produce all the material
necessares OF life, and II remained for the Home

NATURALIZATION.

German Mass Meeting-All NaionalIsics In-
vited 20 Joln-Itcsolutiens and Memorials-
Speeches frou, Both Parties.
For several weeks past there have appeared In the
HERALD occasional paragraphs indicating the posi-
ton the Germans were determined to occupy IN the
politics OF this country. II seems that these para
graphs, thrown out OF random, have taken
seed and thrown out roots, and that after all the
disadvantages the Germans have hitherto labored
under, they are yet having, or at least desire TO
have, their proper share In the influence upon the
legislation OF the country. II their meeting yester
day afternoon was any indication OF this result the
Germans may be proud Of 1t; for the meeting was
one Of the largest ever convened In this city, within
doors The Stadt theatre. which, with its galleries,
holds more people than any other place OF amuse
ment in the city, was not only filed but crowded,
and even the asles OF the galleries nlled with
persons anxious to have standing room.
Punctualy at three O'Clock General FRANZ SIGEL
called the meeting to order He said that by the
thorty or the joint conference committee OF the Ger
man democrats and German republicans he would
call upon all naturalized citizens without distinction
OF nationality, upon all who coincided with him. in
making endeavors to preserve the rights OF the
adopted citizen. All the German democrats respond
ed, and with them they would now 60 hand in hand
to prevent the passage OF the bill In Congress to
abrldge make difficult the privilege OF cti-
zenshp. General Sigel stated that, while he was
opposed to Ill frauds and to all fraudulent attempts
al becoming citizen, he and tine party lie repre-
sented were not willing TO give their support to
measures which made it the imperative duty OF all
adopted citizens 10 submit to degrading nQuis
tons. He stated, further, that, the slavery
question being aside, now the adopted citizens
OF all nationallties may be united to prevent any
legislation detrimental to their own interests Alter
an eloquent appeal to all that this was the time to
inform the public that now, with the changes III the
material condition OF the country, the Germans VIII
take their appropriate position, he moyed Mr. Oswald
0ttendorler lor President. which was unanimously
agreed TO.
On taking the chair Mr.. 0TTENDoRFEE regretted
that his health was lrecaTous that he could not
return thanks to the assembage for having conferred
on him the honor Of presiding over them. The object
of the meeting. he said, was not one belonging
party, but TO all nationalites; all who are naturazed
citizens, wherever they may come ronl, have an In
teres in 1t. Hitherto 1t had been impossible to unite
the Germans; but now, the Germans being united It
may be hoped that the other nationaties will JON
in and prevent what is threatened. He then called
for the iull organization OF the meeting, and Mr..
Albert Goettmann stepped forward and proposed
the following list OF vice presidents and secretaries
