TheM March of Usurpation.

Since the Legislature has assumed to take
from Toledo, Dayton and Columbus, the
right TO elect their municipal officers, We
may expect that the people OF Marion,
Crawford, Richland. and other Democratic
counties, will soon be robbed OF the right
10 elect their county officers. The power
of the Legislature Is just as clear In one
case as IN the other-MarioH Democrat.

B.. ResotUcd, That Congress is not AN
omuipotent law-making power. That the
Constitution provides that no bill shall be-
come Il law without the approval of the
President, unless il he passedby two-thirds
of each House of Congress. That one of
the objects of the present sO-callcd Con-
gTess in excluding States from representa-
ton, is to pass bills by a two-thirds vote
which, were all the States represented,
could not so pass; and thus to virtually
abolish the constitutional provision afore-
said. That ii this precedent be acquiesced
in, there will be nothing TO prevent q bare
majority of Congress, at any time in the
future, from multiplying the constitutional
veto of the President and usurplng uncon-
trolled legislative power, by an exclusion
Of the minority from their seats. That
the exclusion, of even in a single
State, might give this control, and a pre-
text for such an exclusion would not be
wantingto an INSCRIPTIONS and revolu-
tionary party.

ally those of the agricultural States, have

Some unknown friend has sent me the
Free PreIs of the 10th inst, containing strlc-
lures upon my biography Of Gov. Martin Chit
tenden 1t always gives ne pleasure to correct
any errors that may be discovered in my ar
ticles In fact, that article was published in the
papers, as similar articles will be- partly for the
sake Of having errors detected and corrected be-
fore the biographies should be gathered into
volume, which Is their final destination. The
differences. however, between Anonymous -
and myself are comparatively unimpor;aut. He
explains some Of my statements, but does rot
call them IN question. 1t is undoubtedly true
that Gov Chitteudeu had bad advisers il refer
euce to the Plattsburgh affair, and followed
their bad advice, But that docs not prove or
tend 10 prove that he did not DO some things
that be ought not to have done, and leave IN
done some things thai be ought to have done.
It accounts for these thrgs, but il does not dis
prove a single one of my statements.
abide by my assertion that - Gov. chitten-
den was a man of no more than average intellec-
tual ability" That sentence was not written
without due deliberaiion, nor without careful
inquiry Of persous best qualified to Judge. In
my last interview with the late Senator Cola
mer, l asked him, " How much Of a man va:
Martin Chitteuden ?" His answer would justify
my statement to the very letter, anl good deal
more. Other persons, still living and abundant
ly competent to speak on that point, have rem
dered the same Judgment. 1t is quite posi-
be that in the Judgment Ct " the commonalty o
most meD, =" he was superior to them. Ills
kindness Of heart, ard courtesy Of maj ner,
i3inel with average talent, would make that
impression upon them. But " the eoumonalty

A Monopolist Fooled.

The defeat of great railroad monopoiis.,
in an attempt to crafty his own whims and
exercise his power with total disregard Of
the convenience Of the public, Is q matter of
national interest, and an occasion for general
repieing. Mr.. Cornelius Vanderbilt con-
trols both the Hudson River and Harlem
railroads lie underworld at the last stock
holders meeting, to gain control Of the New
York Central, but failed. He ther,upOn
made en- open break with the New-York
Central, which last week reached the p0in;
OF refusal on his part to sell any tickets 70

either passengers or freight, bound west, bc-
yond East Albany, dropping allat Groenblsh
and leaving them TO get scToes the river a.
best they could. Fortunately the LeSisa-
lure of New-York was in session, and very
promptly passed Law roundly tiuing such
siliul breaks Of connection Tie New-NOrk
Central made arrangements TO carry its
freight to New-Y0rk round by the nousat0nlc
road and prominence began TO be given to

NeE-York on the west bank OF tie Hudson.
These various measures and the general ou:-
cry Of the press and people brought Mr..
Vanderbilt TO his milk, and On Monday the
old connections fOI passengers and freight
were resumed, Mr.. Vanderbilt announcing
In a published card that arrangements
satisfactory to both companies 50 had been
