In some of the States, a foreigner who has been a short time a resident in the country may vote in tbelocal elections without going through the process of naturalization. This is, the case in California, in Michigan, and in two or throe other States. These provisions of the State constitutions are spoken of as if Congress had power to annual them. If that be the case, they are inoperative already. The Constitution of Michigan gives tne right of suffrage- to any white in- ho has resided six months within the State.

A nneoinent was made in the House of Representative- on yesterday which indi cates the early introduction into the ili-cu<- sioi.s of that body of the doctrines of kuow- nothingism. Mr. Taylor, of Tennessee, gave notice that at some early day he would in troduce a bill either modifying or repealing the naturalization law'. From thc fo’-m in which tho notice was given, we infer that the mover is not yet determined whether to propose an out-and out proscription of for eigners, or a modification of the present nat uralization laws. Mr. Taylor is .,ne of the few southern men who voted at tlie last ses sion against the Karlas and Nebraska bill. He is a whig and a Methodist preacher, lie Represents a district which probably bn- in it fewer foreigners and Roman Catholics than any other in tlie whole Union. These are significant facts, which will excite ob servation when it is seen tliat !hc know- nothing movement in Congress proewrig from a monitor with such antecedents nnd such a constituency. Until the bill uf Mr. Taylor is brought forward, we shall not un dertake to conjecture or to anticipate its provisions. M e are far from regretting his movement: we care not how -oon or how I thoroughly the objects and doctrines of the new party of proscription arc discussed. Nothing short of discussion will expose the dangers of its principles. For the time be ing the public mind may become agitated, and religion itself mavyuffer temporary inju ry, but neither civil nor religious freedom will snfferpernmnent damage.

Death of Charles Kemulh.—The Uon- don Times, has an interesting obituary of this veteran actor, who died a few weeks since in the 80th year of his age. He is tlie last, we believe, of the old Tvemblcs, all of whom were great actors. There were first Mrs. Siddons: second, John Philip Kemble; third Stephen Kemble ; fourth, Mrs. Mason and last, Charles Kemble. We doubt wheth er so many great actors ever belonged to one family before. Charles Kemble first appeared as Orlan do, in Shakespear’s play of “As you Like It.” He gave no promise of excellence in his early years, but improving as ho went on, he rose to the first honors of tho profes sion in his line of character. 1832 he came to tlie United States with his daughter, Fan ny, who had then been on tho stage for more than a year. The brilliant success of that expedition is well remembered. While here, his principal characters were Clifford Mercuitio, Fazio, Charles Surface and Ham let. He returned to Europe during the fol lowing year, leaving behind him his daugh ter, who had become Mrs, Butler, by mar riage with Mr. Pierce Butler, of Philadel phia. New Orleans, Dee. 13, 1854.
