Ny Dear Madam: In reply to your
inquiry touching my method in natur-
alizing aliens. ! beg to say that, as q
condition Of citizenship ! exact:
la knowledge Of the principles OF
the American Constitutions The law
requires that, i'm order to be admitted
citizen, the applicant must give
satisfactory proof Of his attachment
to the principles of the Constitutions
But how can he be attached 10 that
Of which he is ignorant? Again he
must be we'll disposed to the good
order and happiness of the United
States; but how can he be attached by
such disposition il he know nothing
OF the conditions indispensable to
such good order and happiness?
2. | require that the applicant be
able to speak and write the English
language. The law exacts that TO
serve as a juror in the city Of New
York a person shall be liable to read
and write the English language un-
derstandingly." If the alien, upon
naturalization, be invested with all the
rights and privileges OF citizenship, he
should certainly be competent TO per-
form all its duties. 10 impart the
benefits Of citizenship without impos
ing its burdens is a soiecism; tolerated,
from necessity, in the case of native.
Five years previous residence in the
United States is requisite to naturali-
zation; and If during that period the
alien does not become conyersant in
the language of the country, the fact
argues an Indifference or repugnance
TO that thorough incorporation with
the community which j regard as es-
sentiai to citizenship. Moreover. a
knowledge Of the language Of the
country is important, if not indispen-
saiti4. 10 an intimate acquaintance
with the multiform interests OF the
country. On the other hand, Sc
questered society, speaking only the
language of foreign land, is incom-
patible with the identity and oneness
of community without which true
national unity cannot subsist.
I'm view Of the immense immigration
to our shores from all lands and by
all peoples people mainly without
moral or intellectual enlightment,
totally ignorant OF our lnsubutioHS
and unfamiliar with the ideas and ha-
bits of free men-I deem it of the ut
most moment to the welfare of the
country that extraordinary effort be
made to nourish and diffuse the Amer
lean sairit. TO that end surely
knowledge and use of the American
language is an efficient instrumental
ity.
Very respectfully, your obedient
servant. ROGER A. PRYOR.

lection. Mrs. Vance tells me that long
before her husbands death he had an
oyermastering prescience of the exist
ing state of things in financial circles
on account of the decentralization of
silver. He told her once that the best
effort of his remaining years would
be to put silver on a parity with gold.
He believed the masses in North Caro-
lima wuld be more effectually aided by
this than by any other work he could
do for them. His speeches in the Sen
ate on the subject should be republish-
ed. His voice is hushed in death, but
his words would have more weight
with the people than the combined
eIoquence of every other man In the
State. Let Vance's speeches be read by
everyone. His widow has, or ought to
have them, and as she heartily sympa-
thizes with him in this position, as IN
every other important one, l am sure
she would facilitate in every way in her
power the distribution of them.

1.-THE Democratic secret caucus to-
night was lively affair. Senator
Blackburn was present, as were also
the four anti-Blackburn Democrats.
Every possible amount of pressure
was brought to bear upon them to vote
for Blackburn, strong assurances being
given that the Populist would follow
and make Blacl1burn's election certain
if they would blaze the way for him by
giving their support.
THE Republican caucus was called
together at the instance of Lieut.. Gov
ernor Worthington, who made a prop
osition to withdraw Hunter and sub
stitute ex-Chief Justice Holt. He said
if the Republicans would agree to this
he would guarantee Hollis election to-
morrow. The intimation was that

vote for him. 1T was rejected.
