COLORADO. The Senate bill admitting Col
Ora 20 as State has passed the House. An
am -ndment was proposed postponlng Its adj
mission until it's State Constitution was
amended 10y striking out the word g white .
in the clause relating TO suffrage, but 1t was
rejected by a vote of 30 in favor of 1t to IS
against it. We are pleased, however, to
see that Messrs. Morrill,, Baxter and w ood-
bridge of this State, voted for the amend
ment, and after it's defeat voted against the
bill. 1t is fully time that this government
established the rule, where it has the consti-
tutlonai power to act, that impartial suffrage
shall be the basis of Republican government.
1t is gratifying to know that Vermont. in the
Senate and House, although in a minority,
presented solid front against the sacrifice of
principle involved in the Colorado bill.

and ali persors whatsoever serving with the
armies Of the United States in the field,
though not enlisted soldiers, are to be subject
to orders according to the rules and discipline
of war. The acts of Congress to which ref
erencs is made, provide that whenever any
contractor for subsistence, clothing, arms,
ammunition, munitions of war, and for every
description Of supplies for the army and navy
of the United States, shall be found guilty by
q court martial of fraud or willful neglect of
duty, he shall be punished by fine or impris
onment, as the court martial ehali adjudge,
and further RI vision is made for the punish
ment of persons defrauding the army, navy
and civil service by procuring false vouchers
or entering into Conspiracy with any per-
sons in the employment of the government
with o view to fraud and other kindred often
see.
This is not quite satisfactory to some con-
tractors who have been swindling the govern
ment, but we do mt know of any body who is
moved with much pity Tor them.

The BoMBARDNsNT OF VALPARAIso We
print on the outside of this issue the dispatch
of Commodore Rodgers in regard to the bonn
bardment of Valparaiso by the Spa nish fleet.
and bis attitude respecting it, The appar-
rantly wanton destruction of property by this
commandment has caused it to be very gener-
ally denounced as an outrage. We are not
quite able to see, however, why the Spanish
feet was not at liberty to attack Valparaiso.
We remember General Sherman said in let
ter to General Hood, that d" war is cruelty and
you cannot refine it," Spain is at war with
Chill. If England were at war with this
country we should expect English vessels Of
war would, if they could, destroy Boston,
New York, or New Orleans. Commodore
Rodgers was certainly wise in declining to in
terfere. as was also the English Admiral.

LATE FOREIGN NEws.-The Reform bill was
voted upon IN Parliament on the 2Sth ult.,
resulting IN majority of five only for the
bill, the count being 81 to 313. This major
ity is so small, that it is thought the bill will
yet be- defeated.
The news from Austria and Prussia still
leaves the question between those countries
undo cided, and both nations refuse to demo-
bllise their troops. 1t is generally thought,
however, that there will be no war.

There is another thing which Mr.. Roberts
