WHAT THE ELECTIVE FRANCHISE rs WORTH.
Judge Forester. IN Baltimore, on Wednesday
rendered his decision in the case OF Alexander
NJ Briscoe against the Judges of Election in
the Fourth precinct of the Nineteenth Ward
Three several actions were instituted by the
plaintiff, Alex. M. Briscoe, to recover from
each OF the defendants, Saml Feast. Jr r.
o. Waterworth, and Arthur Mcclellan, the
sum Of SlO0 damages for injury sustained by
the plaintiff, in that the defendants being
Judges Of election of the ith precinc CT of the
Nineteenth Ward, did, on the 9th November
1866, willfully and fraudulently refuse TO re-
oeive the vote of the said plaintiff, he having
been duly registered and legally entitled TO
vote at said election.
Judge Forester, in rendering his decision.
said From the consideration which have
been able 10 give the subject, / am of the
opinion that the plaintiff has been greatly in =
jured by being deprived OF his right TO vote
and thai he should be indemnifed for the in
jury which he has sustained The right of
which ne has been deprived, in the language
OF the Court ofAppeals, lis Justly esteemed as
one of he most precious and valuable belong
ing TO the citizen; and cannot be too highly
prized or too carefully protected. Ii would
be idle for Courts of Justice TO place so high
an estimate upon the existence of a right and
yet fail TO afford an adequate redress when L.
is violated. The measure OF damage awarded
should be commensurate with the injury sus.
tanned; and as no greater injury can be sus-
tanned by an American citizen than to be de-
priyed OF the right of enjoyment Of the elec-
tive franchise. l believe II 10 be nv duty To
award damages TO the extent of my iurisdIc.
ton, and have therefore rendered Judgment
against each of the defendants for the sum of
500 and costs"
