plain and comprehensive provisions for secur-
ing the liberty OF all sane, innocent men
and women, to have provided for tho liberia
ton of their own Slaves. But the point is
and We call Mr.. Everetts especial atten-
tion TO it-that he and his associates in tho Bell
Everett movement would not support Mr.. Lyman
Spooner and his disciples for President, Congress
&C., no matter how stoutly they should assent to
the Old Gentlemens platform. We hope, but are
not sure. that Mr. Everett would, with equal firm
ness, refuse to support fre-eating Southroa
who demands that the Slave Trade be formally re-
opened, and that every stakeholder be projected
by Federal laws, judgments aud bayoncts, in
planting Slavery in any Federal Territory what
ever The naked truth is, therefore, that the Old
Gentlemen do not fraternize with all who take the
Constitution as their guide, but only with those
who-wthin reasonable limits-interpret the Con-
stitution as they themselves do. The preten'e,
therefore, Of taking the Constitution, uuinterpre-
ted, as their platform, is naked CANNON.
Let us. for Illustration, suppose the impossible
were the actual-that Messrs. Bell aud Everett
were to be chosen President and Vice-Presdent
next Fall. They could not be in power single day
without having to take decided ground ON the
Slavery question-either for or against the novel
and monstrous pretensions of the Southern Propa-
ganda. The Cabinet must be named at once; and
that Cabinet must be either for against the add
ton of Cuba to the relative weight of the slave
holding end of our Union for or against the doc
trne just affirmed by the. Senate of the right
Of every STAKEHOLDER to be protected In the idl
enjoyment of his "rights of property in the
Territories; for or against the reconstruction OF
the Supreme Court Circuits, so as to give
the Free States their fair and equal voice
in the tribunal of last resort for the adjudication
| of questions of constitutional law. In short the
Old Gcntlcmen's candidates-th0ugh elected on the
| express ground of evadng questions of sectional
| difference growing out OF Slavery-would be com
PEELED to take sides on those very questions from
The moment of their accession to power And, let
| them lean which way they would, their action
would arouse more excitement, more evaporation,
| than would Just such action on the part OF Demo
cratic or of Republican Administration, because
itwould cruelty disappoint and locally ruin many
of those who had aided its advent 10 power. There
is, therefore, no balm, panacco, in the Old Cen
tlemen's movement, but, on the contrary, the GER
tainfy of fearful aggravaton Of all our sectional
alterations, if this were not happily precluded by
the more immediate and absolute certainty that
| The Old Gentlemen's candidates cannot even begin
| To be elected.

LORDS AND COMMONs.

The rejection by the British House of Lords OF
the Government bill repeating the paper duties,
has raised o grave question of Parliamentary law.
II is the we-estabshed right of the House of
Commons TO originate all money bs--a right
which, in imitation of this English usage, has been
conferred by The Federal and By most all of our
State Constitutions upon the popular branch OF
our American Legislatures. 1t is insisted, upon
the strength of this rule that the House of Lords
have no right 70 reject bill introduced by the
Ministers of the Crown and passed by the Com
mons, repeating tax hitherto imposed. To resist
the repeal of an old fax which the Crown and the
Commons have agreed to give up, is equivalent, it
il alleged, to the imposition OF new one. Such
was the ground taken at q public meeting
held in London in anticipation that the
Lords might pursue the course which they have
since taken, encouraged to do so by the small
majority oil only nine by which the bill passed the
House of Commons. In the House of Lords, the
debate seems to have been not so much on the
merits of the bill as on the power of the Lords in
the premises. The fact that the question has now
been raised, would seem TO prove tina. ordinarily
the Lords have acquiesced in such repeats Of taxes
as the House of Commons has originated. Apart,
however, from usage-and even that the examina-
ton into precedents may show TO haze been on
their sidethe objection taken to the course of the
Lords would not seem to be very tenable. In case
of the imposition of new tax, or ofwhat is techo-
cally called money bill, though the House Of
Lords cannot originate. it still possesses veto on
what the House of Commons proposes. The doe.
trne now contended for, would leave them, so far
the repeal of taxes is concerned, no voice at all
in the matter.
II is not likely that the Ministry will take the
rejection of their bill very much to heart. Ia hav-
ing proposed ii and carried it through the House
of Commons, they will get all the credit of the
measure, while all danger viii be removed of the
ia ling short of the revenue which in the House
was urged as the principal objection to it. That
the csteIsible reason fl opposing it, the real
reason was the still lingering hostility among the
old.school Tories to cheap newspapers and
cheap publications, and the desire on the part OF
others that, if any reduction TO be made in
the taxes, it should be made in the ncome-tax
rather than elsewhere.

passed the ordeal Of the Commissioners aud tho
District Court, have been rejected by tho Supreme
Court ut Washington on the strength OF the
evidence Of their falsty which the investigation OF
tbe Mexican records enabled the Government
10 produce. Among the most important OF these
are tbe Suffer claim for twenty-five leagues, COW
ering Sacramento City and Marysyile, and all the
most valuable Part Of the Sacramento Valley; the
Iturbide cain, covering four hundred square
lesoues. ard the Santillan clam, covering large
part of the CITY of San Francisco.
The value of the property covered by the fraud
ulent claims already rejected is estimated at up
ward of hundred millions OF dollars other CLAIMS
believed to be fraudulent to the amount OF nan as
much more are still pending. Among these ID the
ca.e Of the New-Almaden quicksilver mines, oot OF
which company of Mexicans and Engli'hmen
have taken eight millions worth Of quicksilver but
whose mil ing operations have been suspended by
an Injunction. The value of these mines IS est-
mated at fifteen million dollars.
Another Of these pending cases Is that Of the
quicksilver mines of Panoche Grande, said to be
as valuable as those of New-Almaden. In this
case the process of fraud and deeeption-has been
pushed to tie furthest point. The California DIS
trict Court was induced to make decree IN
favor of the claim, BY false representation that
the United States Government had acknowledged
its validity. The falsity Of this allegation having
been asceraned, the counsel for the United States
moved to reopen the case. But, meanwhile, a
false transcript of the record was obtained, upon
the strength of which the Supreme Court at Wash
neton issued mandate for the execution of the
decree. This mandate, however, has been re-
called. and the case remains to be disposed Of.
An act of Congress was passed In 1885 which
renders liable to criminal prosecution, and on
conviction, to three years imprisonment in the
penitentiary, any person who prosecutes Caliior-
MIA land claim upon false title, knowing it to be
such. The only proceeding under this act which
appears to have been yet taken was in the ease oil
Limantour, who was held to bail in the sum OF
S35, GOO, which he forfeited rather than make his
appearance. There are great many other per-
sons who are exposed to similar proceedings, and
the Attorney General intimates that they will soon
be taken.

STATE W.. CETY--NADE LAMBS.

Terra IiTma," in his letter in Fridays TRIB-
UYE, asks two questions: lst Whether the power
to ill out lots and slips at discretion gives the City
any right to go beyond the line Of the City grants;
ID. Does such filling in operate transfer of
title
We answer: After the construction of south
and West streets the exterior line of the City's
grant, all piers, slips, and lots bounded on the
North and East Rivers must have been beyond the
City grant. OF course, an authority to fill in, to
have any effect, must be an authority TO fill beyond
the City grant. The objection of Terra Firma"
that, if the City has discretionary power to ill in
and build piers in the East and North Rivers,
there is no legal impossibility in the City's filling
sup those rivers altogether. is not very alarming.
man has the legal porer to build his house to the
moon if he chooses. AS to any undue encroach-
ments, the Harbor Commissioners have sufficient
power to restrain the City, il necessary.
The second question is whether such filling in
transfers the tite' The State authorizes the City
to NIL in sink piers, make wharves and slips upon
IFS land under water and take the wharfage, and
slippage arising thereirom. This is an implied
grant OF the land under water on which the piers,
&C., are sunk, and is believed to transfer the legal
title according 10 established principles of law. If
the State contests it, what can it do Bring an
action against the City to recover possession
The City is in possession by consent of the State.
Recall its consent or authority, That would affect
the future mol the past, and simply prevent wharf
ing, or filling out any further. Order the City
off, Having built the whavcs aud piers and lands
under grant of authority or of franchise from
the State, such an act Of the Legislature would
be utterly void as in violation of contracts.
