WARRINGTON, Jan. 2S.-The President
returned to the Senate, with objections,
the bill for the admission of Colorado.
He objects to the bill on the ground that
the population of the Territory is only
%, 900, as appears by the census, which
is less than that Of any other State
which has heretofore asked a~dmittance;
also on the ground of evidence Of incon-
gruity between the legislature Of the
Territory and that of Congress on the
subject Of the third section, namely, the
conditions precedent Of admission, al
lowing votes regardless of color or dis
tinction; and, third, as the Legislature
proposed carrying out the provisions of
the bill, the terms of half the members
of the Territorial Legislature having ex-
pired on the Sd inst, the President asks
that the question be submitted to the
decision of the people, but says that
within the sixty days specified it will be
impossible to reach certain portions of
the Territory, owing to certain obstruc-
tons to travel. He says a State apply
ing for admission should have q popula-
ton of at least the ratio Of Federal re-
presentation. These are the principal
reasons also for the Nebraska veto,
which will be sent in tomorrow.
The HeraId's Washington correspond

PRODUCTION into the House providing for

The Judiciary Committee are investi-
eating the %apprenticing system under
the law of Maryland, and find that the
Courts in some sections seem to DO d.
