Congress adjourned yesterday until

pointed visitors to the West Point
Academy and Msssrs. Morgan and Alli-
son visitors TO the Naval Academy. The
House bill for the relief Of settlers on
restored public lands was passed. Mr..
Morgan called up his joint resolution Of
fered in June last, declaring that the
President of the Senate has not the right
TO determine what Electoral votes shall
be counted or rejected. The resolution
was debated by him and MIR. Edmunds.
Pending debate, motion to go into Ex-
eculive session was carried. When the
doors were reopened a private bill vas
considered, but not acted upon, and the
Senate adjourned.
In the House, after the reading of the
journal, Mr.. McLane, Of Maryland, sub
nitted resolution requiring Messrs.
Weaver, of Iowa, and Sparks, of Illinois,
to apologize to the House for their con-
duct on Tuesday. After debate Mr.

resolution as amended by the substitute
Mr.. Weaver arose and apologized to the
House, and Mr.. Sparks made a like

PROTECT THE BALLOT.
INDIGESTION TO Mn. pEAN.I

What Ia the use of Democrats urging
the Importance and necessity of main.
tanning supremacy in our gallant little
State longer, when with a long lease 1of
power they have failed to secure just
aud tquitsble laws for the pro ectiou Of
thet ballot? They may have indsed made
laws looking to the protection of party
voters, but not for voters of all classes.
Why should Mr.. Dean of Newark
a member OF the last LeRis1ature-dc-
plore the defeat of the Democratic par
ty. Did he " nile In that body legislate
for party or for the good OF the State?
Applying the same to the whole Legisla-
ture, then nearly one-half of the people
of Delaware had no voice in the govern
ment, although they paid their just pro-
portion OF the expenses. Now how far
should party be carried In local matters?
z arty measures originate in differences
of opinion concerning national Questions,
not local. Every party should first aud
always aim to have the voice of the
people expressed at the polls. The Dem
Ocrals loudly demand the repeal of the
deputy marshaPs bill (Which IL an AFRO
giant assumption OF power, violation
of the spirit IL not the letter OF the Con-
stitutionJ The Republicans as loudly
demand the repeal Of the iniQuitous as
sessment laws. On their face both these
measures are just; in their application
both are iniquitons. Admitting that it is
diff cult matter to settle, let US ask, in
CASE war should again break out would
those disfranchlsed by the deputy Snar-
sbals bill or assessment laws be exempt
cd from going into the army? Verify,
experience teaches they would not, anu
yet they had no voice in the matter, but
are compelled to bear the burden Now
Democrats and Republicans Just change
places, and apply your laws in such case,
aud where do you stand? But what
shall we do? We suggest: Let every
man register his own name in the proper
book; aDoIlsh the poll tax, and in lieu
| thereof .evy tax upon all machinery
which performs manual labor, guaged as
solmany man-power as engines are now
| measured as horsepower; further pass
| "a graduated income tax on all Incomes
over one thousand dollars; abolish the
lee system in our pubic offices and pay
them a salary according 70 the labor re-
quired, and not pay two men to do the
labor of one, as is often the case under
the present system. Yes, purify the bal
lot, but let every citizen vote, without
ri gard to poll-Iax.
In NJ assac achusetts 1t is estimated that
| at least one hundred thousand men old
not vote because of restriction laws; in
Virginia about forty thousand for the
