Gee one year’s residence within the United revious to his application to become oo sch ofhnce, and that the court admitting suéh alien shall, in addition to such proof of residence and good 'm moral character as. is ponte provided by liw, be satisfied by compe¢ proot of such person having been hondischarged from the service of the United States as aforesaid.” Such is.the liberal and generous law veletive to foreigners; and yet men fresh from the bogs and ditches of Ireland, from the BGt Sp isellars, aoderground hovels, .and unwholesome garrets, of all the large cities of Europe, men who have lubored all their lives for a few shillings per day, or served for the smrllest pittance, being poorly clothceive the generous local and general bounties, serve, to be sure, in active strife and on the tented field, receiving, however better wages therefor than they have ever earned before, and: still their friends complain. of the Government of their choice and the country of their adoption, and the contemptthe despised of men—sympathise with them the alien-made complains of the Government and curses against the Administration. All these complaints may be traced to one and the same-sourco, and thet will be found in a hatred for the Government. In every cam" paign the same charges are made by copperhead speakers, and in each journal of that party appeals to the basest passions of the foreign born are set forth. Many. foreignets are thus induced to smite the hand that . ‘befriends them. A large proportion of tham act and vote with the enemies of the . country. But there are among foreignersfja large number who are true to the Government and liberty; They know and sppreciate the benefits conferred by the Administration upon en. They love liberty.and use of liberty_in this land and Mirth, will-be advanced by act in the present and in the future; but foreig who come to this country as a matter of in: bor, because fighting pays better than anything else they can do,should not complain; who would glady starve those defending. the flag, say a word about the generosity or illiberality of a Government which they con‘demn, and which furnishes their property _ and worthless lives with blood. rbought ‘and undeserved protection. Above all tet them know something bf the laws: relative to aliens before they complain of them. : iin THE first sabpidtte cable in America was made in 1843;by Horace H. Day, for Cot. Sam. Colt.

The diamond, as found in nature, usually has-a erystalized point on one side, and a rough surface, like ground glass, on the other, face rough.
