WASHINGTON, Sept IA = A report has
been received at the state department
from Consul General Sutton, at Mat
slDUras. embodying the translation vi u
new law, promulgated on the 7lh Of July,
relating to the rights of foreigners. 1t
provides that any foreigner may be natur
alized in Mexico, after two years resi-
uerce, upon furnishing proof that he is
In iuli enjoy ment OF civil rights in his
own country. and that he has a business
or income sufficient to provide him with
the necessities vi life. Colonists coming
INTO the country 10y virtue of contracts
executed by the government shall be con
sldered Mexican clIiz' MS. Foreigners
shall enjoy all the privileges oil Mexican
cit 'zeiis, subj ct to the power reserved
To the executive Of banishing those
whose presence may be considered per
nlcluus. Vacant or public lands or re,l
estate or vessels una be acquired by for
elgners without residence in Mexico. but
they must ABIDE by the restrictions inn
posed on them by the laws in force. Auy
release Of real estate To a foieipnr for a
term of more thar ten years shall be con
>idered as Il transfer. Federal law may
restrict the civil rights of foreigners To the
ea'Nh' W ruiJStthIe tilcin 10 the same IN
abilities which the laws of their own coun
tries impose upon Mexicans. Foreigners
shall contribute to the public expenses in
the masucr provided for by the laws;
they shall submit to decisions and sen
fences OF tribunals "withou t Apply
ing 10 different than those
permitted by law to Mexicans."
They shall apply to diplomatic nterven
ton only in cases of d NAL OF Justice or of
voluntary delay in the administration OF
the same, aud that after having tried in
vain all the different means afforded them
by the laws Of the republic, and in the
manner determined by international laws,
the compulsory matriculatiun of foreign
ers is repealed This law does not repeal
the twenty league frontier limit. or the
five league marine limit; consequently. to
purchase real estate within twenty leagues
OF the frontier, permission Of the presi-
dent Is still necessary; to purchase landed
property within five leagues of the coast.
permission must be obtained by special
act of congress.

DRIvE-WIIIsT.
A Game that is Taking the Place Of Pro-
gressiye Enchre.


Drive-whist is raging in the East as
progressive euchre ragged in the West
last season. 1t has been introduced in
a limited number Of Detroit homes by
ladies and gentlemen. who practiced it
while visiting Boston. New York. and
Philadelphia friends Drive-whist is
not very unlike progressive euchre in
| its general form. Any number of tables
may be brought into the game; ono
hand is played, and then the couple
change tables, advancing in rotation,
as in progressive euchrc; only in drive
whist the same partner is kept through
out the evening. Then, again, it is
more social, because each couple must
| in the course Of the evening meet with
and play every other couple in the room.
unless, Of course, there are more couples
than there are hands played; but, as it
ia possible to play from thirty to thirty
five hands between the hours of s and
1880 o'clock, the last contingency is
not likely to arise. Players assert that
the game is very fascinating.
| To play drive-whist, the host or
hostess must procure score cards in
sufficient number SO as to provide each
couple with one. These score cards are
made like dancing programmes to be
fastened by q cord, and give space at
the top for the ladys name and address,
and opposite, the gentleman's name
whose partner she is. Below the card
is ruled in spaces so that there Is one
column for points won, another for
points lost, and third for the names of
| your opponents. The manner Of choos-
ing partners for the evening is left to
the ingenuity Of the hostess, and differ
ent ways are adopted. One is to write
the gcntlemen's names on the score
cards Zone name on each card) and then
let the ladies draw one card each.
4 When partners are once selected they
