The Civil Rights Bill.

The Civil Rights Bill.
Although the Civil Rights bill
has been widely published, there
ARE doubtless many people who
have not time to read it. For the
information of such persons we.
copy the following synopsis Of its
provisions, which will give the
reader a very correct idea Of its
scope and extent. We are in
debted to the New York Post for
the synopsis:
This act, which is to-day the
law OF the land, secures to every
person in the country the right to
make and enforce contracts, to
sue, to be sued, be parties and give
evidence, to inherit, purchase,
lease, sell, hold and convey real
and personal property; it guaran-
tees to all alike the full and equal
benefit Of all laws and proceedings
for the security of person and
property; and it subjects all alike
to the same plnishments. Fur
ther, it subjects any one to a pen
atty Of fine and Imprisonment
who for any cause, depriyes any
person Of any of these equal
rights. aaa.
The enforcement Of this impor-
tant law is intrusted to the United
States District Courts, either sepa-
Irately or concurrently with the
United States Circuit Courts; to
lone of which any one threatened
with such wrong as this law seeks
to prevent, may remove his cause.
In practice the Court will first
decide, we suppose, in such case,
whether there is reason for the APP
peal.
It is further made the duty of
the Circuit Courts Of the United
States to appoint from time to
time additional commissioners,
who are officers before whom per-
lsons charged with violating the
law are to be brought for examin-
alton. The commissioner may
discharge from arrest, or he may
commit for trial. Marshals and
deputy marshals are obliged to ex-
Iecute all warrants and precepts is
sued under the provisions of this
act, and they may be fined for re-
Imissness in duty. The commits.
sioners may appoint persons to ex-
ecute their warrant, and these are
authorized, if necessary, to call
upon the bystanders, and even up
on the military and naval forces,
for help.
None of the officers created by
this law receive salaries; but only
fees for the services they are called
upon to perform. They as well
as the marshals and other United
States officers, are compelled to
act if called upon, and to resist
them is made an offense punisha-
BILE by fine and Imprisonment.
The President is authorised-but
not obliged-by the act, if he
thinks it necessary or advisable,
to direct the judge, marshal and
attorney of any United States
;. District Court to attend at a par
ticular place within the district,
for the more speedy arrest and tri.
al of offenders; and the President
lis also authorized-but not obliged
ito employ the military for the
vindication of the law.
/ 1t will be seen that the Presi-
dent has very little to do with the
Execution of the Civil Rights act /;
he appoints the circuit and district
judges when the places fall va
cant; that is all.

The Freedmen's Bureau Bill.

The passage of the Freedmen's Blu
reau Bill over President johnson 5
veto is another congressional victory.
The necessity of the measure was so
apparent that its friends notwithstand-
ing the veto of the first bill, were de-
terminod to make another trial. SO a
new bill was framed which, it was
hoped, would meet the approval Of the
President But not SO. Regardless
of the large majority by which it was
passed by both houses of Congress he
vetoed it. The veto message was read
in the House on Monday, and vote
was Immediately taken upon it, one
hundred and thirty-three voting that
the bill should become law, notwith-
standing the veto, while only thirty
three voted i'll the negative. The Sen
ate promptly endorsed the action OF
the House by vote of thirty three to
twelve. Messrs Edmunds and Poland
voted in the affirmative.
