TIE Messenger demands a reason for
The refusal to pay the Morgan Raid
Claims appropriated, which the recent
Democratic Legislature atLemptsd I'd
provide for The reason is a constitu-
tional one. Section 20 of article 2, of
the Constitution. ordains that "no mo-
nies shan be paid on any claim, the sub
ject matter of which shall not have been
provided for by pre-existing law, un-
less such claim be allowed by two-thirds
Of the members elected to each branch
Of the General Assembly" As there
was no pre-existing law under which
such claims IS those originating undei
the Morgan Raid, were provided for,
and aa the law making appropriation for
their payment was only passed by
simple majority, there was, practically,
no appropriation, because the law was
invalid for want of the constitutional
vote required on It's passage.

In a cautious disposition the present ad-
ministration is undoubtedly looking cut for
valuable acquisitions from among the West
Indies. They will not be warred for; neither
win they be jObbed and paid for after the
Seward-J johnson fashion; but they will be
accepted. See if this administration doesn't
entertain proposals of Cuba ard Hayti for
the free, or nearly free cession, of those
islands.
