All the colorcd churches of Chester,

the managers of the steamer Richard

boarded the boat, but after they had
proceeded some distance down the river
the captain informed them that he had
received letter from Simeon Lord The
proprietor of Augustine Pier, who said
the place was private property and that
the colOred excursionists would not be
permitted to land. The steamer ran
down to Bay Head, but upon the advice
Of the committee, none of the excursion

WE reprint from the Philadelphia Times
a scathing arraignment of the present Con-
gress for its failure to pass worthy bills,
and make necessary appropriations while
wasting the peoples money at the rate of a
million a minute in pension bills, and
threatening the country with the most
dangerous and reckless legislation. We
have often called attention 10 the neglect of
clear duties and usurpation of unconstitu-
tional powers by the Republican majority,
but its course under the leadership of Reed
is violent and stubborn, unscrupulous and
suiien, threatening not only the present
welfare of all sections, but the very credit
OF the government, the power of the ballot
and the security of our institutions.

High Taxes and the Farmer.

There Is no more firmly settled prin-

GEORGE TICuNoR CURTIS discusses in
able papers, in the New York San, the un-
constitutionality of the Lodge force bill.
He shows very clearly that the proposed
measure does nothing which Congress liz
authorized to do, and that II does great
many things which Congress has no
authority whatever to do. ie proves con-
clusively, by an unanswerable historical
argument, supported by the authority Of
Alexander Hamilton, that the right of
Congress to alter, amend or regulate cleo
tions can only be exercised when II state
for any reason Is without representation,
or has neglected to make uniform election
laws. And It is nat claimed that such a
condition exists to-day in any state in
the Union. Mr.. Curtis shows also that
it is unconstitutional in creating number
of ofienses already provided for in state
laws, so that an offender could be placed
twice in jeopardy by two distinct govern
ments for one and the same act. This is
not only contrary 10 tho express provision
of the constitution, but to the spirit of our
criminal Jurisprudence, and is, in itself IA
strong objection to tho bill.
MIR. Curtis shows that the bill from be-
ginning 10 end is an illegal and purely
partisan measure which could not be en-
forced If passed. and which is destined to
involve its authors and promoters in in
eyitable political ruin.
