Alterations which were neither authorized nor intended by Congress have appeared in the new code. Changes of duties upon imports. -affecting to a very large extent important interests of the country. have appeared there. and have sub siltatio been incorporated into law by the adoption of these Revised Statutes. The honorable Senator from California the other day drew the attention of the Senate to an exceedingly grave change in the naturalization laws. by which the law of the country upon that most important subject was importantly changed. I wish to know whether the Revised Statutes which. either through error or from other cause have been made to differ from the authoriced law of the land. have now been reduced to conformity with that law. The object of the codification and revision of the law was simply to place in compendious shape the laws as they stood with all the repeals express and implied appearing upon the face of the statute.
