ton. They have refused TO allow the bin TO be
amended They have refused 70 refer it to COM
mittee where 1t may be fully and fairly discussed
am ready to pass such blu as the Common
Council Of the city hare asked for. They have only
asked that more election prssncts and moro time
should be granted. am ready to pass such bill
But am not ready 70 pass q BILL with or without
discussion, which shall establish principle nm
known 70 our laws--the principle Of imposing PEN
alties on our judicial officers to insure their hon.
esty IN the administration of their official duties.
aIn stu more unwilling to punish them for falling
TO execute law as a court may construe il in
solving the question on which judges and eminent
lawyers differ. The honorable gentleman from
Virginia Mr.. MILLsos has stated that two law
yers in Virginia, lMr. Patten and the present At
torney General of that State,) agreed in the opn-
ion that foreigner 10 entitled to vote the moment
he is naturalized. Sir, win suggest to the honor
able gentleman from Virginia that lawyers do not
all agree with the authorities he has cited. In the
late contest in Virginia, to which he alluded, one
of the abest lawyers and ursts in the State of Vir
GINA, Mr.. Scott, of Fauqnier) expressed an opn-
ion adverse to the one he has expressed, and adj
verse TO the opinion Of Mr. Patten, and to the de-
cision given here by the court Yet sir, gentlemen
propose TO place the commissioners of the cleo
tons blindfold, under heavy personal penalties to
execute law in the construction of which judges
and lawyers differ!
There Is no doubt that this bill derives its pecu-
liar force from its connection with the existing Law
on tho statute book If taken Independently it is
only AN insult-nothingm and nothing less. But
when taken In connection with the existing law,
and Its extrsudicial effect, and exposition by the
courts its effect Is to enact and enforce by pains
and penalties, law which the friends Of the bill
know they cannot exact directly.
AS stated by the gentleman from Kentucky, the
existing law does discriminate harshly between the
foreigner who receives his naturalization papers
the day before the election and the young Ameri-
can who comes of age after the Slst Of December
preceding the election. Every person who is
citizen Of Washington, that is, resident--a per-
son who has his domiciie here, whether foreigner
or native born, whether citizen or not citizen Of
the United States-is, according to the laws Of the
Corporation, required to be assessed and required
to be taxed. 1t is the express judgment Of the
court, in the opinion (which have already re-
ferred, that persons not citizens Of the United
States liable to be taxed aud persons not citi-
zens are entitled to have their names put down on
the poll-books; and when foreigners so entered
upon the books receive their naturalization papers
the day before the election, they are entitled to
vote. ss

Another Game OF the Administration.
rumor is quite prevalent in the city, that the
administration win few days previous to tho June
election order the steamship Minnesota to Norfolk
for completion, and will, at the same time order
about one hundred of the employees at our Navy
Yard to accompany her, and these employees will
all be Americans, the administration thus hoping
by forcing these mechanics to accompany the Min
nesota or else subject themselves to dismissal from
government employment, to reduce the American
vote. We give this az a rumor.
If the administration or its menials have con.
cocted any such scheme, we dare them to execute
1t. We dare them to attempt to practice such
tyranny upon the mechanical community of this
city. We dare them thus to deprive these mechan-
les of the free and untrammelled exercise of the
right Of suffrage. American sentiment and Ameri-
can voters cannot be controlled by such threats
nor by the executor of such tyranny. If the ad-
ministration would dare put in execution such
scheme, we would appeal to Congress to close the
vaults of the Treasury against it, and deny it any
and every appropriation not absolutely necessary
to keep the wheels of government in motion.
