The New British Naturalization Law.

The new Naturalization Bill recently introduced
into Parliament, provides that all British subjects
who have already, or may hereafter, become
voluntary naturalized citizens of any foreign
State shall be considered as aliens. 1t also allows
any subject of Her Majesty who may have been
naturalized before the passage of the act, to re.
gain his allegiance, by making a declaration Of
nationality, but he must throw off his allegiance
to the foreign State to make it of any effect. Ii
is not stated whether n British subjects nation
atty can be regalned who nationalizes himself
after the passage of the act.
The act also provides that aliens in the United
Kingdom are for the future to be placed on ex-
actly the same footing in regard to the possession
and inheritance of real and personal PROPERTY.
Ii this includes the power to Will real estate on
the part of an alien, it has 4 more liberal scope
than the laws of New York affecting the property
of aliens. This clause, however, does not qualify
an alien for Office or franchise. Aliens who have
been naturalized are to be permitted to donation
alIze themselves, provided their native country
have made a convention with Great Britain to
that effect and aliens are for the future to be
tried the same as natural born subjects, and not
by a jury de mediefate HnguG, as heretofore. 1t
is obligatory that foreigners DESTROYS of being
naturalized must have resided for five years in
Great Britain, or been in the British service that
time, and that they intend, when naturalized, to
continue such residence or service, their certificate
OF naturalization heing liable to being Cancelled
in default of the fulfllment of these conditions.
Wives are to follow the nationally of their hus-
bands, and infant children of their parents.
OF course, this wipes out the old doctrine of
once a British subject always one, and does away
with the anomaly which existed in the British
naturalization laws. And it was full time the
was made, for there was a great incon-
sistency between the pretensions of the British
system and the ability to maintain them, and it
placed a British subject, who had denationalized
in the position, in case of war between
his native and adopted land, of a traitor, in the
eye Of the law, whichever side he embraced.

The Spanish Outrage.

We have now the particulars OF the outrage
upon our Consul at Santiago. An American
7 vessel bound to Kingston put IN TO santiago IN
distress. Owing t. informalities In her papers,
she was seized and mocred under the bow OF q
gunboat, and her captain and crew were made
prisoners. The captain was refused permission
to communicate with the Consul. However he
contriyed to get ashore and see the Consul, who
entered a protest against the proceedings OF the
authorities. He advised the captain TO surrender
the vessel entirely to its captors, and subsequently
demanded the instant release of the captain and
crew. This was complied with, and for safety,
the men were dispatched TO one OF Mr.. Phllllps
estates in the country. The first night the cap
tain was on shore an attempt was made to poison
him. While the business was in progress, the
Havana papers came containing MIR. Phillips dis
patch to Mr.. Fish, in which he treated of the
condition of the country, and expressed the
opinion that the volunteers at Santiago were OPP
posed to the Captain General, and that 1t was
their wish to place Valmaseda at the head Of
affairs. The volunteers now came together, and
agreed to murder Mr.. Phillips. He was apprised
of their intention, and at once, in company with
Mr.. Ramsden, the British Consul, waited upon
the Governor and demanded protection. This
the Governor confessed himself unable to afford
and he advised Mr.. Phillips, as a friend, to leave
Santiago instantly, or he would not be RESPONSE
BILE for whatever might happen. Hearing this
from the chief of the Government, Mr.. Phillips
Immediately returned to the Consulate, and then
departed by French steamer for Jamaica.
That is the plain story, and from it, it appears
that an American Consul and an American flag
in Cuba are of no account. 1t seems, too, that
Spanish authority is succeeded by the rule of q
mob of volunteers. And yet with these repeated
insults and outrages, and with these proofs that
Spain is powerless in Cuba, our Government
hesitates to do a plain duty. AS things are now,
Americans are only tolerated in Cuba, and they
exist there under the protection of England and
France. Our flag is no assistance to them. If
they get into trouble they hunt up an English or

SCANDAL N HIGH LIFE-AN EAEL's DAUGHTER
E1OPEs WITH Mr.. MCRPHY.-A special mail telegram
from London, dated on the 10th of March, reports
the following case:
Lady Blanche Noel. daughter of the Earl of
Gainsborough, was married on last Sunday. at
Chelsea Catholic chapel by, it is reported, the Rev.
Mr.. Mullen, to an organist of the plainest possible
pattern. named Murphy.
1t appears that Murphy, who is, of course, an
Irishman, bad been in Lord Gainborough's service
as organist, but not very long since be was dis
charged, and no sooner had he left the country
residence of his lordship than her ladyshIp disap-
peared. The affair is now in the hands of the
scotland Yard Detective Department. Murphy and
Lady Blanche were both traced to Spitalfelds.
Her father, who is a recent convert to Catholicism,
came to town and endeavored to persuade her to
return, but she declined. and on Sunday the mar
rage took place in legal form. They left the
church arm in arm. not even a cab being in wait
ing. The witnesses of the marriage were an old
lady's maid and a former servant. Lady Blanche
Murphy is rs and her organist spouse 90.
In upper circles the affair has created quite a
sensation, and strange stories in connection with
the affair are afOat.
