THE VETO OF THE SUFFRAGE
BILL FOR THE DIsTRICT OF
(,AVITuRIA. H.

The message of President JOHNSON, return
ing the bill regulating suffrage for this Dis
trict, is another calm. fearless, and manly
yindication Of constitutional law. 1t is not
a wilful disagreement with coordinate
branch Of Government, but an attempt to
arrest its glaring innovations upon organic
and fundamental rights, and to stay by the
hand of Executive power the daring and dan
gerous encroachments Of legislative usurpa-
ton 1t is not an attack against the prin-
ciple Of impartial and intelligent suffrage,
regardless Of race or color, but an interposi-
tion against an unwisc and indiscriminate
extension Of the momentous privilege OF the
elective franchise, which threatens to involve
its yery existence It is by no means o
,bigoted or prejudicial assault upon the en-
franchsed African race, but an honest and
Christian sndeavor to 80 arrange its oppor-
tunities Of elevation and advancement that
its progress in the path Of civilization may
result in common advantage and blessing,
and to check hasty and improvident ell
thralment Of power upon q heretofore
shackled and untitled portion Of the commu-
nifty, which, in its exercise OF its suddenly
acquired and utterly unappreciated rights,
might so WELD it that it would prove 4 dis
aster 10 itself and the country.
The points maintained with rare ability,
and presented in the most decorous manner
aud eominendable spirit, are. that the bill as
passed by Congress is in violation OF the re-
corded will Of the people whom the law is to
effect and therefore despotic and un-Ameri.
can; secondly, that it is an assumption Of
power on the part Of Congress without con.
stitutional precedent or sanction; and, third.
ly, that it is an experiment fraught with
special danger to our colored citizens, and
with possible disasters to our whole political
system.
In support OF these views The President
arrays the theories and reaSonings OF Ex
Presidents MADISON and JETYERsoE, Chan
cellor KENT, and Chief Justice STORY. These
are names which adorn both American juriS-
prudence and American craftsmanship
names renowned alike for great legal attain
ments and pure, unSel6sh pstriotismi and
r thew aud their words stand like massive and
ilnpregnable battlements fortifying the pres
ent position Of President JOHNSON. Suct
counsel may be diSregarded BY partisan
Congress; they will not be forever unheedeG
by an intelligent and patriotic people.
Months ago we indicated to Congress thu
method by which the deserving, intelligent
and patriotic colored portion Of this DistricI
could receive the boon Of suffrage with the
approval and cooperation OF TIE president
and his frisadS. That method was simply Ia

The correspondence between Mr.: Win
