vote Of SS to 65. This is in all probable.

session, The Democrats voted solid for
the reference, and those Republicans who
believed in the Constitutional Amend
ments we're opposed to any further legis'
latiou this session, and those who were in
favor of the various amendments, which
they thought could not be made in the
House, voted for the reference. 1t is NOT
likely that any bill will be matured at this
late day, that could be passed by the nee.
essary two'thirds vote, and it was on THU
ground that Stevens more readily gave VI

TO U PATRONS.

On the 18th Of March, next, We will
reduce the subscription price Of the UNION
to $500 per year in Advance. We are
induced to make this change, in hope that
every Democrat in the County will be.
come a subscriber of their own local pa.
per, because they ought to know what is
transporting about home, and because, at
the above rate, it is cheaper than any pa.
per they can obtain from a distance.
We need not remind the Democracy of
Ashland County Of their duty. They
know it +; but we have at this time, to call
upon them to do that which their own
Judgment tells them is proper and right
that is, to exert themselves in procuring
subscribers for their own county paper. In
a county like this, our subscription list
should number fifteen hundred, and it
soon can be run up to that hummer, if our
friends will give us their aid aud influence
10 extending our circulation. There is
not a man in the county who reads the
UNION, that can not influence at least one
other person to become a subscriber to the
paper. This would double our present
circulation but there are persons in al
most every nc ighborhood, capable Of pre-
curing from one to fpenty now subscri
bcrs, and thus our list made several time
as large as it now is, II these gentlemen
would exert their influence in fsvor 0

The Veto Of Colorado,
WAsHINgToN. ian. 3

Jan, 20.
The President this afternoon returned
TO the Senate with his objections the
bill for the admission Of Colorado. He
vetocs-t the bill on the ground that the
population is only $4,000, as appears by
the census which is LEES than that of any
other State which heretofore has asked
TO be admitted also on the grounds Of
the evident inct pgruity Of legislation Of
the Territory and that Of Congress, on
the subject Of the third section, pamely:
The condition precedent Of permitting
the citizens to vote without distinction OF
race and color, and further as to the leg.
~islation proposed for carrying out the
provisions Of the bill, the term Of one
half Of the members of the Territorial
Legislature having expired on the Sd
inst. Thc President ueges that the ques.
ton involved DO submitted TO the decis
ion Of the people, but, says that within
the sixty days specified, il will be impos.
sible 10 reach certain portions Of the
Territory, owing 10 the obstructioss to
travel. He says a State applying for ad'
mission should have a population at least
equal to tho ratio Of federal representa-.
ton. These are the principal re isoni
assigned for yeloing the bill. The veto
Of the Nebraska bill will be sent 10 to
morrow.
