The following is the letter Of Mayor WAL
LAcH to tho Senate Of tho United States, on
the subject Of the recent so-called election,
referred to in the report Of proceedings:
MAYoR's OFFICE,
wAsHISaroN, d. c., Jan. Q, 1856.
Hon. L. s. Foster, Pres. U. s. Senate:
Sin: have the honor, In compliance with
an act Of the Councils Of this city, to trans
init through you to the Senate the results Of
our election held on Thursday, 2lst day of
December, to ascertain the opinion Of the
people Of Washington on the question of
negro suffrage, at which tho vote was 9, 626,
aggregated rs follows:
Against negro suffrage. ....................0,5 sol
For negro suffrage. NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.. 81
Majority against negro uHrage............e,6 $50
This vote, the largest, with two exceptions,
ever polled in this city, oonolusiysly shows
the unanimity Of sentiment Of the people Of
Washington in opposition to the extension
Of the right Of suffrage to that class.
The Mayor gives the votes for Mayor at
Eve previous mayoralty elections, and pro.
ceeds to say
'No others In addition to this minority Of
thirty five are to DO found in this community
who favor the extension Of the right of sui.
frage to the class and in the manner proposed
excepting those who have already memo
rallied the Senate in its favor, who with but
little association, less sympathy, and no com.
munity ofinterests with the citizens Of Wash
ington, receive here from the General Gov.
eminent temporary employment, having at
the national capitol residence limited only
to the duration Of presidential term, claim
and invariably exercise the elective franchise
elsewhere.
The people Of this city, claiming an indie.
pendence Of thought and the right to express
1t, have thus given grave and deliberate
utterance in an unexaggerAted way to their
opinion and feeling on this subject.
This unparalleled unanimity Of sentiment
which pervados all classes u the community
In opposition to the extension Of tho right OF
suffrage to that class, engendsrB an earnest
hope that Congress, In according TO this ex-
preston Of their wishes the respect and con-
sidoration they would A. individual members
yield to those whom they Immediately repre-
sent, would abstain from the exercise Of its
absolute power and so avert an impending
future apparently 50 Questionable to those
over whom, by tho fundamental law Of the
land, they have exclusive Jurisdiction"
With much respect, l am the Senate's
obedient servant,
