it, operation for the coming election. All
who were here on the 10Th Of this month,
and are otherwise qualified, will be perA

csrs to Be elected; but It the election which
follows --l845 the six. month"; residences
qualification is to be restored, and ell par
ticipation in the election to be denied to
those who have resided among Us for
shorter period. This, tous, seems child's
play. We are 1T a loss to conceive Of any
good reason why special political privi'
leges should be given to particular class
Of citizens one year, ami be denied to 9
similar class the next. Had the 10th
June citizens been restricted BY the act te
participation in the choice Of delegates
to the convention, we should, in view o
the important results involved, have hound
no fault with it, although not believing any
such change to have been contemplated OF
desired BY the people; but such is not the
import Of the new law. Without assign
ing any excuse for so doing. the Legisla-
ture, in addition to authorizing them t.
vote for delegates, has determined that a
the election in August next al persons
who have been here six weeks shal. be en-
titled TO vote for localcounty officers, such
as sheriff, Commissioner, recorder, &c.
The members, perhaps, may be able to as
sign some sufficient reason for this special
legislation in favor Of the present election,
bnt we candidly confess ourselves to DC
at loss to conceive where it will BE-
found. A residence Of six months before
being admitted to the enjoyment Of citizen
ship we regard a sufficiently short peri
Cd of probation; Tut it would have been
infinitely better, and we should have look
ed upon the act as far less Objectionable,
had the change from six months. toas many
weeks, been permanent, instead Of tempo-
| rary, and for single election. In thai
event the law would have possessed the
merit Of uniformity in its operations, and
its enactment might have been excused on
principle.

The STOLEN 30, 600 Recovered.

The money, nearly $4,000, belonging
to Mr., McKie, Of Salem, Washington
County, New York, which was stolen
from him at the City Hotel, Albany, has
been recovered by two ex-police officers
Of New York.
It appears that few days since another
robbery Of $500, in fifty dollar notes Of
the Commercial Bank Of Albany and Cats
kill, Sill ofthe Bank Of St. Clair, Michi-
gan, and, $50 in scrip, took place. One Of
the bills on the Commercial Bank was chan
ped by woman who was traced to her
residence. She and an elderly man were
next day arrested as they were about to
leave In one Of the boats. The man and
woman were then searched, when an i'm
mense roll Of bank notes was found on hel
person, nicely enclosed in ''bustle" that
that she had used for its adornment. The
two were then taken to the police Office
where the money was counted and fount
to be SO, l99 in note Of fives and tens o
the Farmer and Mechanics and Exchange
Bank Of Hartford, Connecticut, thus an
swering to the description Of money lost BY
Mr.. McKie, and within 1906 Of thai
amount. The suspected rogue gave thu
name Of John DAILY. He is about 30 year,
Of age, and appears to be an Englishfnaf
BY birth. The woman is young and ver1
sood-looking, and says her name is Eliza,
