subject oi army reorganization. The
sundry civil appropriation bill Is In rapid

difference between the two houses will
apparently be recouciled by the commit.

agreement concerning the Senate amend.
ment, proposing an appropriation OF $780,
600 for expenses OF marshals OF elections,
supervisors, &C., and some minor points

In regard to this bill and the postofTice and

the event OF a final agreement being
reached by the two houses, concerning the
clause In the legislative, executive, and
judicial appropriation bill, which provides
for the repeal OF the federal election laws.
The prospect for an agreement by the

President Hayes WithhOIds
His Signature.
Sets Forth His Reasons for
His Veto.
TREATY OBLIGATIONS DISCUSSED
Congress Without Power to
Annul a Treaty.
The House Declines to Pass the Bill
Over the Presidents Veto.

WASHINGTON, March Text Of the
Presidents message 10 the House of Rep.
rcsentatives on the bill to restrict Chinese
immigration:
To de House Of Representatives:
Alter very careful consideration Of
House bill No. 2,4a4, entitled IAN act to
restrict the immigration Of Chinese to the
United States" herewith return II to the
House OF Representatives, in which it
originated, with my objections to its
passage. The bill, as 1t was sent to the
Senate from the House Of Representa-.
tives, was confined in its provisions to the
object named in its title, which is that of
IAN act to restrict the immigration Of
Chinese to the United States" The only
means adopted to secure the proposed OBJ
ject was q limitation in the number OF
Chinese passengers which might be
brought to this country by any one vessel
to fifteen, and us this number was not
fixed in any proportion to the size or
tonnage Of the vessel, or by any consider
alton OF the safety or accommodations OF
these passengers, the simple purpose and
effect OF the enactment was TO repreSs
this immigration ton extent falling but lit
tie short OF absolute exclusion. The bill rs
amended in the Senate and now present.
ed TO me, includes the independent and
additional provision, which aims at and
in terms requires the abrOgatiou by this
government OF articles five and six Of the
treaty with China commonly called the
'Burlingame treaty" through the action
OF the Executive enjoined by this provis-
ion OF the act. The Burlingame treaty, Of
which ratitications were exchanged ut
Pekin, November %, 1859, recites as the
occasion and motive Of its negotiation by
the two governments, that since the con-
clusion OF treaty between the United
States OF America and the Tsing Empire
(China) OF 1858, circumstances have arisen
showing the necessity OF additional arti.
cles. These negotiations, therefore, end
ing by the signature Of additional articles
July 2S, 1868, had for their object the com.
pletiOn OF our treaty rights and obligations
toward the government of China by the
incorporation OF these new articles as
thenceforth part Of the principal treaty to
which they are made supplemental. Upon
settled rules Of Interpretation applicable
to such supplemental negotiations, the
text Of the principal treaty and OF these
Traditional articles thereto" constitute
our treaty.

maintain firm, lasting and sincere friend.
ship, have resolved to renew in Il manner
clear and positive, by means OF treaty or
general convention Of peace, 'amity and
commerce, the rules OF which shall in fu.
ture be mutually observed in the inter.
course OF their respective countries" and
proceeds in its 30th article to lay out a
careful and comprehensive system for the
commercial relations OF our people with
China. The main substance of all the
provisions ofthis treaty is to define and Sc
cure the rights Of our peopldin respect Of
access to, residence and protection in
trade with China. The actual provisions
in our favor In these respects were framed
to be, and have been found to be, adequate
and'appropriate to the interest OF our COM
merce, and by the concluding article we
receive the important guaranty, THAT
should at any time the Using Empire grant
to any nation, or merchants or citizens Of
any nations, any right, privilege or favor
connected either with navigation or COM
merce, political or other intercourse which
is not conferred by this treaty, such
rights, privileges and favor, shall at once
freely innurG to the benefit OF the United
States, It's public officials, merchants and
citizens" Against this body Of s,ipula-
tions in our favor and this permanent en-.
gagement of equality in respect Of all
future concessions TO foreign nations, the
general promise Of permanent peace and
good offices on our part seems TO be the
only equivalent, The first article reads as
follows: "There shall be, rs there have
always been, pcaceand friendship between
the United States and the Using Empire
and between their people respectively.
They shall not insult or Oppress each Other
for any trilling cause, SO rs to produce
estrangement between them, and il any
other nation should act uniustly or op.
pressiyely, tho Unitod States will exert
their good offices on being informed Of tho
case, to bring about an amicablc arrange
ment Of the question, thus showing friend
ly feelings" ~

OF the Princess Louise for ia clergy
man, her tutor, points to Canon Duck
worth, her brother Leopold's tutor. not

young girls. she may have had passing
fancies before she fixed her affections
on the Marquis of Lorne. The same
stories ran around about alleged tender
passions Of her mother, the queen, be.
fore her marriage with Prince Albert.
Victoria's favorite ones were said to be
Lord E%lplIinstone, Lord Fitzallen, then
in the First Life Guards, and after
wards Duke of Norfolk, and Lord AL
fred Paget, the father of Captain Paget,
who married Miss Minnie Stevens. FL
