SLAVERY IN BRAz1L.-Some time ago an as
ISOLATION was formed, with committees in Paris
and London, to promote the universal abolition
of slavery. The first care of the committee was
to send addresses to the Emperor of Brazil and
the Queen ofSpain, the sovereigns of the only
two countries that still have slaves. That ad-
dressed to the former potentate has been answer
ed by his Imperial Majestys minister for foreign
affairs. The reply states that the personal desire
of the Emperor and the tendency of the pubic
opinion in Brazil equally in favor of abolition,
and says: The emancipation of the slaves, a
necessary consequence of the abolition of the
sIave-trade, is now only question of form and
of opportunity" The minister promises that
whenever the unhappy circumstances in which
the country now is shall permit, the Brazilian
government will consider as object of the high
est importance "the realization of that which the
spirit of Christianity has long demanded from
the civilized world" 1t has been stated since
that the Emperor of Brazil had emancpated his
own slaves as an example for his subjects.

VETO OF THE COLORADO BILL.

The President returned the act admitting the
territory of Colorado as State. lis sense OF
duly, he says prevents his approval OF it. WITH
the exception of the additional clause 1t IS the
same vetoed in May last, and which still awaits
tue reconsideration of the Senate. He is unable
to perceive reasons for changing his opinions and
only sees additional reasons confirming the WIS
dom of his former veto. The additional section
makes the bill more Objectionable. The Constr
tuition of Colorado provides that the laws exis-
ting shall continue. Among these is one abso-
lutely prohibiting negro suffrage. The recent
territorial Legislature almost unanimously refused
its repeal, and pending the passage of an act by
Congress the Territorial Legislature passed an act
refusing jury rights to negroes. The bill before me
grants Tie rights denied by the Legislature and
The Constitution of Colorado. This incongruty
and the protest on the part of the people against
State government clearly indicate the impoli-
CIV and the injustice eff the proposed enactment,
and it is subject of serious inquiry whether the
enactmen: is not an attempt to exercise powers
not conferred by the Constitution.
The President submits evidence Of the repug-
nance of the people to State government
The total population of Colorado is 27,7O9, only
fifth of the number required for Congressional
representation, and yet this small community is
to be allowed one representative and two Sena-
tors. Florida's admission in l945 resulted from
sectional strife which We would do well to re-
gard awarning of evil rather than an example
for imitation. He shows by statistics that other
States, when admitted, had population emitting
them to one and nearly to two Representatives
Every organized Territory, equally with Colorado
is entitled to admission. Dacotah, Idaho and
Montana are equally entitled TO admission, Civ
ing US ten new Senators and five Representatives,
furnished 10y population hardly entitled to one
in the existing States, where the average popu-
Iation for two Senators is nearly million. He
argues that the enabling act for Colorado was
passed under false statistics, and the deliberate
decision of the people against forming a State
exhausted the enabling act. Besides, a bill SO
framed as to render its execution impossible raj
ses the question whether the bill itself is not a
nulity
The President has also vetoed the Bill admit
ting Nebraska into the Union as Il State.
