REPORTS.
By Mr.. Burlingame, from Committed
on Military and Indian Affairs, favor
ably-An Act to amend the General Mi
litia Act.
Mr.. WEIGH, from the Committee OF
Federal Relations, made the following
report: Your Standing Committee OF
Federal Relations, to whom was referred
Assembly Bill No. &c, entitled An Ac
to repeal all Acts or parts of Acts so IA
as they conflict with an Act Of Congress
entitled 'An Act to protect all persons
in the United States in their civil right!
aud furnish the means of their vindica
tion,'" passed April 9, 1866, have hat
the same under consideration, and di
rected their Chairman to report thu
same back to the House and recommend
its passage. Your Committee would
further state that in their opinion tht
passage of this bill is ~'eminently jus
and proper, inasmuch as no State
should have on its statutes a law which
contravenes or nullifes q law Of Con
grsss. The idea Of preventing a person
from enjoying the benefits Of the civil
rights Of the country in which h'
may reside. is repugnant to al
our ideas of free government, Of justice
and humanity. Especially so is such
exceptional discrimination repugnant &c
the American idea Of liberty and justice
which seeks rather to build up, to ele'
yate and ameliorate the condition o.
mankind, than to pull down and de-
grade any OF our fellow beings. In any
constitutional government where the
least semblance of liberty has found q
home. there the lowliest Of its citizen:
should be protected and his rights vim
dicated equally with the rich and pow
erful Of the land. By so doing disaf'
lection will be sbated, couspiracies and
treason will he things of the past, and
the Republic grow strong in the affsc.
tions Of . united, happy and contented
people, a consummation which can BE-
brought about only by melting out equal
and exact justice to nll-faroritism to
none. Placed On file.
