Robert ]. Walker on the Law.

We print below and desire to call to the es-
pscial attention to an extract from an opinion
of the Hon. Robert j. Walker upon the Pres-
dents right to decide upon the constitution.
atty Of laws passed by Congress. Mr.. Walker
IL Democrat, and stands high in the conf
dence of the President. He is learned in the
law.
81 called" says Mr.. Walker, ''upon Gen.
Thomas early on Saturday morning, at the
War Office, and communicated to him in q
friendly way nay opinion that any such
would be nullity, and would subject him to
serious consequences, especially if any such
collision should occur, / told him that he had
ne right, nor had the President to disobeg Ian
Of Congress upon the assumption that It acas an
constitutional, and that If this wsrc not so the
President might set aside all the latUs of Congress
since The foundation of the Government upon
the ground that they were unconstitutional.
That the President possessed no such power,
because it was not an executive but exclusive
ly Judicial poaoer, and that all the tGscs Of Con-
gress must be o5eyed and executed By the Pgesi-
dent unless their execution was restrained by
the highest judicial authority That to de-
clare a lGa1 unconstitutional was net only the
exercise ofjudicial power, but the highest }u-
dactal po1oeT, and only to be resorted to by the
courts where, in their judgement, the act was
clearly unconstitutional, and that in all doubt
full cases the court had uniformly refused &c
interfere with the execution of the law"

Railroad Reform Needed.

DR.. Hatfield, Pastor Of the Methedist
Centenary Church, Chicago, in letter pub.
lished in the N. Y. Independent, insists that
several reforms on railroad passenger cars,
are needed. The following is one Of the
number, to which he calls attention.
That there Is mot Nth each passenger train
car or cabooSe for the eGclusiue ass of to-
bGcco-cbewers.
Most roads provide cars for the accom-
mediation Of smokers. Into these cars no
