veto message of his Exec lency on the militia
bill was taken up. Mr.. Whiting of Plymouth,
Mr. Parker of Worcester, and Mr. Battles of

tionality and of justice. The yeas and nays

So the bill was lost, less than two thirds
voting for it,
lii the House, the bill authorizing the city of
Boston to subscribe to the capital stock of the
Troy and Greenfield Railroad company was
taken up. Mr.. Kimbal of Boston denounced,
with much warmth, the manner in which the
bill had been lobbied to its present stage, and
the refusal of the House to allow the subject
to be postponed, until more light could be
thrown upon it. The question was postponed
until Friday. The bill providing for the cleo
ton of selectmen and other town officers for
three years, instead of one, was passed to be
engrossed-72 to 81.

alton of the vote. Mr.. Tucker and Mr.. Went
worth Of Lowell, favored tile reconsideration,
and Messrs. Eldridge of Canton, Griffin of
Maiden, and Upham of Salem, opposed it.
Messrs. Eldridge and Upham expressed them
selves in opposition to the two years amend
ment, but were opposed to putting political
questions to the Supreme Court. Mr.. Griffin
said he had no doubt the court would sustain
the amendment, and then those persons who

POIitIcaI.

The correspondent of the New York Cou-
rier and Enquirer says :-"It is rumored, and
/ believe the report is well authenticated, that
the leaders in the national Union movement
have determined to place in nomination, at
their convention at Baltimore, Hon. Justice
Mclean of Ohio for the presidency"
The Anzeiger DIES Westens, at ST. Louis,
represents that if Fremont is nominated at
Chicago, he would have the votes, not only
of all the German republicans, but also the
votes of most of the German democrats, who,
four years ago, voted for Mr.. Buchanan.

| THE GERMAN REPUBLICANs.-A committee
of the German republicans of New York have
issued a call for convention, or delegate
meeting of the German clubs, to assemble in
Chicago on the 14th day of May. The aim
is to secure concert of action among the Ger
man republicans, and have some influence on
the national convention. 1t does not appear
that this movement finds much encourage
ment The Auzeiger DIES Westens denounces
it as mad project, and calls those engaged IN
it German know nothings," and says with
much severity that it is a senseless scheme
of German know nothingism to call back to
life that American know -nothingism which
has disappeared like an ugly dream. 1t is
evident that the talk of Mr.. Bates as candi-
date Tor nomination at Chicago, has caused no
cans; and their opposition is likely to give the
movement in behalf of that gentleman a look
of inexpedency.
