nearly thirty years. It Is too late, therefore, to
make 9 serious objection to the measure on con-
stitutionAl grounds.

the sternest principles Of justice and equality OF
rights, and BY consistency In people protesting
to believe in Republicanism. OF its practical
workings, there can be no doubt. Added 70 Mary
laid, the District would considerably enlarge
one OF the smaller States Of the Union. Its citi-
Eens would then enjoy their legitimate share in
the Government Of the country, In the election of
PRECEDENT and Of Congress and In the making Of
the laws, State and national, under which they
must live. The lonK-mooted question Of the
status Of the clerical force In Washington would
De properly settled. They could no longer enjoy
local citizenship in Washington without becom-
ing citizens Of Maryland, and the result would be
an essential reform in the civil service.
The relative amounts Of revenue to be con-
tributed by the citizens and by the Government
for purposes of public Improvements could be
settled on . basis Of equity, which would take
from the latter the character Of charities doled
out to importunate beggars. The proper adjust
ment would be for the Government to consent to
tax itself pro rata with the citizens upon basis
ofthe valuation Of the public property, not dita-

SAILORS RIGHTS.

ADelegation Of the Merchant Marine in the
City.
Considerable curiosity was excited by the Ap-
peRrAnoe on the Avenue yesterday morning Of o
procession Of about forty persons carrying an
American flag and transpsreneles, on which were
inscribed, "The frien iless sailor asks for only
what is right" 1--WE represent the great body or
American seAmen Of the United States, and ask
for the repeal Of the shipping act of 1871 +" 1.-THE
shipping act Of 1872 Expresses US below the Veriest
slave" &C. The procession was headed by
DOnch's band, and was composed of delegations
Of sailors Of the merchant marine from New
York, Philadelphia and Baltimore, who came here
to ask for the repeal OF the shipping act Of 1872.
The delegations first visited the President, the
band playing Hail to Il Chief" as they Ap-
preached the Executive Mansion. They were
drawn up under the Portico, and three usty cheers
given for the President, who soon appeared at
the door. Tho leader Of the delegations then
briefly explained the object Of their visit, and
handed him letter containing memorial, which
he said would more fully set forth the views Of
the sailors. The President said he saw by yes
terday mornings papers that they would visit
Congress, and that he would give the matter his
careful consideration. The sailors dotted their
hats and gave three cheers for the President as
he retired.
The delegation then proceeded to the Navy
Department. The Secretary Of the Navy was
not in his office at the time, and the committee
were received by Mr. Hogg, Chief Clerk Of the
Department, who, in response to an earnest ex-
preston Of their grievances replied that the Sec
rotary would, no doubt, have been glad to have
seen them; that the navy and merchant marine
were closely connected their interests in respects
being identical, and that he was satisfied the Sec
Rotary, If their cause was just, would aid them
far as was possible in removing the burdens of
which they complain, but it was Congress alone
that could give them relief. The delegation gave
three cheers for the navy and retired, their band
playing q patriotic air. The delegation subse-
quently visited the Treasury Department and
presented the Secretary With copy Of their Pc
titiOn.
