THE HOMESTEAD BILL.

This day, the Senate is to take up the bill providing
that each white citizen of the United States or mm
grant who has declared his intention Of becoming q
citizen may claim settle on and in due time acquire
title to any quArtersection of the Public Lands duly
surveyed and put in market not previously bought or
claimed by another and not reserved from sale as con-
tanning mineral or for some public use
II may be said that this is but halfmeasure and
thats the fact II ought to give native Americans as
good chance as white aliens even though the former
be black or copper cOoredi for if free land be the
rehtful portion of the Poor, what class needs or de-
serves tmore than that which has cleared and TILED mil
lions OF acres of this continent without recompense and
has never yet owned acre for every hundred which
it has rendered productive And true Homestead
Law would not only permit landless men to take each
quartersecton of the Public Domain without prize,
but would refuse to sell or convey more than section
to any body at any price.
However, this bill as it is is as good as can be got
and we shall be very glad to chronicle its passage

battered into so bad shape that il will not should it

JUDICIAL DECISIONS.

The Supreme Court of MICHIGAN has affirmed the
eorstitutionahty Of the Prohbory Liquor Law of that
State, overruling the decision Of Mr. Justiee-ofthe
Peace Bagg and sustaining the law on all the point. n-
yOved We presume this settles the question so Ear
Michigan is concerned, and that henceforh the law
is to be sustained, enforced and obeyed ia that State

lewdness, and other vices.
On the other hand We learn that the Supreme CouIt
Of MASSACHUSETTS will very soOn-probably to-day
pronounce decision nvadatiDg 50 much of the Pro
hibitoy Law Of that State as authorizes the search
Of suspected places for liquor, with the seizure and
destruction Of that same when found. How the
Judges do this without at the same time nvalidat

searched for the implements Of gambling, counterfeit
ing, &c, We cannot imagine but those who look
through (colored) glass darkly may see what we

NEyy-HAnYPsHIRE.

There will be spirited struggle in New-Hampshire
at the Annual State Election tomorrow, and if the day
prove as fair as is now promised the vote will not fall
below Sixty Thousand Not being gifted with the pro-
phetic faculty we will set forth the material facts and
leave our readers to predict for themselves
There is very deep and earnest fermentation in the
State with respect to the Nebraska question: and very
full Wbig and Free Soil vote will be poled on that
account We estimate the Whigvote at Twenty Thou
sand the distinctive Free Soil at Ten Thousand. But
the usual Democratic strength, if all drawn out,
siderably exceeds these sums united ranging some
where from Thirty-two TO Thirty-four Thousand
But this will be somewhat reduced by the influence
of Nebraska, which will keep some voters at home
and ncite others to vote the Free Soil ticket Had the
question been put to every voter last November

ERRORS EXCEPTED Tho Senate of our State seems
to have committed grave indiscretion. IL has had
the presumption to pass bill-the Liquor bll-whch
is not approved by it's Clerk-whereupon said Clerk
asserts that eleven of the twentyone Senators who
voted for it ro,ed against their jndgment believ
ing many of the provisions of the bill unconstitutional"
This s rather grave charge to be put forth by the
leading and confidential officer of the Senate and we
propose to bring its author to test of its correctness
We suggest that the Clerk resign and the bill be
considered so that the Senate sba be al liberty to
amend its judgment both the choice of Clerk and
the passage of the bill There is evidently an error
sOmerhere, and new trial both questions will be
apt to detect and straighten it out What says the
Clerk N. D. We will warrant the Maine Law. well
