BILL IN RELATION TO SUFFRAGE.

We understand that bill will soon be re-
ported 10y the Committee on the District of
Columbia, designed to secure the rights of
voters in the District, and to prevent fraud.
We trust The Committee viii be prompt in its
action, and be driven by no clamor of interested
partisans TO mutilate the bill SO that it shall
fail Of its objects. Every honest man should
oe anxious 10 secure 10 every native-born and
naturalized citizen his right to vote, to provide
against fraud, TO hold the judges of elections to
a rigid accountability, and to prevent citizen
from being deprived of his rights by the igno-
rance carelessness, or fraud, Of others. The bill
before the Committee, we know, is expressly aud
honestly designed to accomplish all this. The
opposition to il comes from the party which
happens TO be in power, and is intent on per-
petuating its rule.
We do hope that the members of the House
who are thoring so earnestly TO restore and
guard the rights ot the electors of Kansas, will
bear in mind that the citizens of this Territory
also have some clatui npon Their protection.
The Nec York Erening Post says ca the
Republican Address, printed in its columns
"This elaborate document, which occupies a
large share of our space today, is a clear and
faithful expression of the opinions of an unu-
sually intelligent body of men, in regard to the
progress which Slavery has made in demorali-
ling the political sentiment of this nation. Its
rnth-rship Is attributed to III. J. Raymond, ESQ.,,
Lieuf enant Governor, aud bears the impress OF
his Rigorous mind"

CINCINNATI FUGIrIvEs.-Mayor J. J. Faran,
of Cincinnati, has discharged two of the city
police for aiding in the capture of the fugitive
slaves now on trial in that city. The Mayor
holds that city police has nothing to do with fu-
gitive slaves, unless called upon by the United
States officers to aid them in arresting or re-
tanning custody of such fugitives. He holds
that any man who will neglect his regular bust
ness and assist in hunting up runaway slaves,
without authority of law, and for the sole pur.
poss of obtaining a reward, is unfit to be city
poiiceman.--R9dindeal

The Boston Resolutions.

The following resolutions were adopted at the
late indignation meeting at Faneuil Hall:
Resoiued, That we have heard with grief and
indignation of the brutal assault committed upon
our esteemed Senator, Charles Summer, for words
spoken in debate, and of the insult offered in his
person to the honor of our Commonwealth.
Resotved, That in this outrage we see new en-
CT oachments upon freedom, new violations Of State
rights, and strange disregard of chivalrous prin-
ciples; while in the conduct of such men as Sena-
tor Crittenden, we gladly recognise proofs of the
fact that in all sections of the country there are
men Of high honor, Of pure principles, and Of true
patriotism.
Resolved, That this attack IL to be rebuked not
only as cowardly assault upon a defenceless man,
but crime against the right Of free speech. and
the dignity Of free State.
RESOLVED, That, as American citizens. we deeply
lament the odum which such acts cast upon our
country, and upon the course Of Repubiicanism
throughout the world
Resolped, That although sixty-eight members of
the National House of Representatives have voted
that they think no inquiry regarding the outrage
is necessary, still we feel confident that Congress
will free itself from the same cripe by expeIling
the offender from the seat which he has dsgraced.
RESOLVED, That we regard every blow inflicted
upon our Senator as Sblow aimed at US; that in
our estimation his wounds are honorable wounds
that as citizens of Massachusetts, without distnc-
ton of party, we pledge him, here in old Faneuil
Hall, our sympathy and support in the fearless and
independent discharge of his duty.
