PASSAGE OF THE CIVIL RIGHTS
BILL IN THE SENATE.

The Senate has passed the " Civil Rights"
bill over the Presidents veto by a vote Of
80 to Is. II has yet to receive two-thirds
vote Of the House, which may or may not be
obtained If the bill passes the House, and
becomes law, all that remains is for the Pre-
sident to execute il in good faith, which we
are certain he will do. This will naturally
bring on the conflict with State Constitu-
tions which we have several times clearly
shown must occur should the provisions Of
the bill be executed, and which the Presi-
dents unanswerable veto pointed out so for
chilly and ably.
The States will carry their grievances to the
Supreme Court Of the United States and in
the and the Presidents views will be vindica-
ted Congress will see the error Of their ways,
the Freedmen will then learn who their real
friends are, and the people viii discover that
the measure which we early denounced as an
odious bill, and which the President declared
to be unconstitutional, was more odious when
enforced as a law, and even more glaringly
in conflict with the Constitution OF the Uni
ted States than the Presidens illustrated.
We shall have more to say on this subject
on Monday.
