Mr.. ImbotIen replied that the resolution did
not proposal new appropriation; the stamps were
to be paid for out of the money appropriated by
law for the expenses of the Legislature The
other departments OF the government had their
postage paid out of the treasury, and he thought
it no more than just that the lnemberS should be
relieved of the expense Of postage on these pub

SIr Garnet contendcd that this would he at

precincts Of The city. Prosecutions
for such illegal voting are Of rare oc.
currcnce, for where q fiaud is intend
ed detection becomes extremely diff
oult-first, from the extreme caution
of.the guilty party to esoape exposure,
and secondly, because there arc few
citizens whose public spirit prompts
them to engage in the unpleasant labor
Of Prosecutions and exposure. The
law must act as the remedial measure,
or there is no remedy. If The right to
vote is worth anything. it is worth the
little trouble IL visiting some convent

extending over several weeks previous
to the election for the purpose Of re-
eording the na'pe and residence Of
the voter. A WI, man should value

resulting from his own exercise Of &C

ed State and country residence, and

Of days in the district where he votes,
may be a power exercised by another
without any political qualifications
Whatsoever.
As Mr.. Brooks remarked, is this
State and country every man acquires
the rights Of citizenship 40 easily that
no pretence can be offered for not sid
ing. in every wholesome legislation, TO
i..hteet it from abuse. The proposed
law encroaches upon no Constitutional
privileges and interferes with no natur-
al or acquired rights.
We sincerely hope that the Demo
cratic party, which is now in the as
tendency, will secure the passage,of
law which will have the effect Of re.
the grievances attending all
our elections, and which have become
SO glar'ng and intolerable as to rem

tan, we take the following article in
reference to the action of the New
York Legislature, to purify thes bal
lot box, and put an end to frauds in
that State:
This boosted privilege of American
citizenship has been most awfully
abused and prostituted elsewhere as
we'll as in this city. IL the city of
New York the practice of fraudulent
voting has become SO common, that all
parties are DESTROYS Of adopting some
plan by which the villainous outrage
may be suppressed, and it is generIy
admitted that registry law is The most
eflectnal way to remedy tho mischief
Such a law, as experience has proved,
is the only practicle mode to secure
tho purity of the franchise and main
tam the rights of the people in the
exercise Of that franchise. In many
respects the state ofpolitical society in
New York is very analogous to that Of
our own city. They have not %dis.
graced themselves and furnished The
fair fame Of their city By breaking bal
lot boxes. but the same disposition and
proclivity to fraud and violence at the
polls are as apparent and rife there as
here.
A bill has been introduced by Mr..
Brooks, in the Senate Of the State, en-
titled "An Act to secure the Purity Of
Elections in the city Of New York. >
We require precisely such law for
the city Of New Orleans, and the veryi
same arguments used By Mr.. Brooks
in pressing his bill upon the copsidera-
ton Of his colleagues. apply with equal
force to the condition Of things with U.S.
The same practice prevails here of
lawless and corrupt men voting in two
or more, and perhaps all the wards or |
