POLITICAL RIGHTS OF NEGROES.
From the N. Ti Time.
.The broad assertion of citizenship anil its
attendant franrhiHes wlticu was made in be
half of the negroes by the reoont amend
menta to the (Joimtitiition is Him ply a basin
for practical legislation, by means of which
those franchises can be realized. Constitu
tional provisions cannot enforce themselves
in the absence of statutory provisions, and
courts cannot assume jurisdiction or deal
with infractions of them except under afllrma
tive law. The declarations that slavery shall
' not exist within ttie United States, that all
parsons born under Federal jurisdiction are
oitizens, and that no citizen shall be denied
the right of voting on account of race, color,
or previous condition, neoessarily require
supplementary legislation to give thorn
vitality and practical effect. Moreover, being
new concessions by the States to the Federal
Government, Congress had no right, ex
pressed in the Constitution, to logislate with
regard to them, and hence the necessity of
the clause appended to each of the new
amendments, reciting that "Congress shall
have power to enforce this article by appro
priate legislation."
The resistance to the fifteenth amendment,
by refusing to register negro voters in Ohio
and California, and the spirit of intimidation
which has been exhibited in various localities
at the South, demonstrate the immediate
necessity for action upon the part of Con
gress. We are glad tosee that action has already
been had, and that the Judiciary Commit
tee of the House have agreed upon a strin
gent bill which will soon be brought forward,
and we hope passed. It is a substitute to the
bill previously introduced, and which was
thought to be objectionable. It provides, in
substance, that any officer who ahull officially
deny the right of any citizen to vote, on ac
count of race, color or previous condition,
at any election, shall be adjudged guilty of a
misdemeanor, and be punished by imprison
ment not less than one, nor more than three
years, or by a fine of not less than $500, nor
more than $5000, or by both fine and im
prisonment. , , The bill also declares colored citizens enti
tled to vote upon precisely the same terms
and conditions as whites, and that any per
son who shall prevent them by force, fraud,
or intimidation, or who shall refuse to assess
or levy or collect a tax of colored citizens in
States where the payment of taxes is a quali
fication of electors, or shall refuse or neglect
to register colored voters, or to receive his
vote when legally offered, shall also be' ad
judged guilty of a misdemeanor and punished
by fine or imprisonment, or both. A penalty
of $500 is also imposed for refusing to assess
or register any negro entitled to vote, which
shall be paid to any person who shall bring
suit therefor; and a similar penalty for re
fusing to receive the vote of any such voter,
to be sued for and recovered by the elector so
refused. Jurisdiction is conferred upon the
United States Circuit Courts in suits for f or
. . f eitures and penalties, and concurrently upon
Circuit and District Courts in proseoutions
for the punishment of misdemeanors specified
in tne act.
The bill Is very carefully drawn, and is evi
dently intended to cover every phase of re
sistance to the principle involved in the re
cent constitutional amendments. When it
shall beoome a law, whioh we trust will
speedily be the case, we shall cease to hear
of faotional opposition, and partisan preju
dice against negro suffrage will speedily die
out botn JNorm ana outn.
LETTER-WRITING.
From the y. T. World. v.
When Clio sits down at ber desk, in the
midst of tinted stationery and ivory-handled
pens and alluring ink-jars, and begins epis
tolary communion with remote Polyhymnia,
she naturally does not forebode that her un
reserved communings shall become the sport
ox cnance, and be published abroad for the
perusal of mankind. She is, therefore, less
reserved and reticent than she would be if
, she knew that the universe was to ba the
recipient of her epistle. Out of the ful
ness of her heart she writes, and she pro
bably says a good many things which, ap
propriate enough for the eye of friendship,
are apt to embarrass both writer and reel
pient when they glare upon them from the
broad daylight of the printed page. It is
v) not that the sentiments ot Vlio are in any
way objectionable, or that she lets out any
aangerous or compromising secrets, but that
the private communings of friend with friend,
' like the household converse of husband with
' wife or" the secret and moonlit colloquy of
lover and mistress, are not intended as public
outgivings, and they lose their grace and
appropriateness when they lose their privacy,
as the violet loses its sheen and lustre when
it is drawn from the shade in which it blooms
to the full blaze of the sunshine. Who
would like to see his love-letters printed.
and the phrases of endearment with which
be wooed the lady of his love made the sport
of ribald youth and unromantio middle
age; the jibe of hardened bachelors and
the derision of elderly maids who had
long outlived the peril of such amatory solici-
tations ? To a lover of becoming sensibility
suoh a calamity would bring grief beyond the
assuagement of speech or tears,- Nothing
would be left him except to put dust upon
his head and lock up his writing-desk for
ever. And yet the love-letters might be good
ones. They miaht be brimful of fantastio
superlatives and odorous of callow adoration
But the world coarsely translates the iinpeta
ous gushings of individual emotion, and it
would be likely to laugh at the lover s rhapso.
dies, and think his allusions to the moon and
other heavenly bodies absurd. . No one who
writes love or other letters can be entirely
sure that they may not some time be brought
forth and read by rude attorneys in open
court, or printed by merciless editors tiud
commented on by unsympathizing readers
far and wide. Nobody is exempt
from the danger of a lawsuit, and
nobody's letter is free from the
liability of some time being pub in evidence.
This being the case, it benooves correspon
dents, even in their most intimate moods, to
bear in mind the possibility that they may be
addressing tne human race instead oi an in
dividual, and fashion their letters according
ly. When the document is finished, if they
are in any aoubt as to how it would loon in
print, they might experimentally send it to a
newspaper, and, u it stood the test of pub
licity to their satisfaction, forward it to its
destination; if not, suppress it. This pre
caution would render a correspondent tole
rably ssfe, but except to refrain wholly from
writing there would seem to be no other.
The letters thus far made public in the
Mcl'ailand trial deserve to rank as epistolary
curiosities; but, except as exhibiting a little
womanly vanity and a groat deal of womanly
. - 1L. a - B a I -
warmin ana anecuou on vuo part oi mo
titer, tbev are of absolutely no significance.
The writer wbs very much in love with her
correspondent, and seemed to be ardently
desirous to promote what she deemed to be
her welfare. Whether she judged rightly or
wrongly as to the means of increasing her
happiness is beside the question. She evi
dently considered Mrs. McForland a suffer
ing and an ill-used woman. Mrs. McFar
land so considered herself, and it is natural
that she should have brought her friends
to her way of thinking. A prudent person
would have hesitated before counselling
a wife to leave her husband, whatever
bitterness and misery may have been
involved in the continuance of that rela
tion. Hut in matters of this sort womon
are rarely prudent. They take counsel of
their prejudices, their passions, their affec
tions. This is as natural to them as breath
ing; and if their counsels are indiscreet, or if
their affectionate zeal leads their friends into
error, it is the motive which animates thorn
alone of which we must judge. The severity
with which some of the counsel commented
upon the letters of Mrs. Calhoun was perhaps
to be expected. It is the business ef the
lawyer to make mountains of molehills.
Sergeant Unztnz aincemea a most sinister
implication in Mr. Pickwick's innocent order
for chops and tomato sauce. But when a
respectable journalist takes these sensoloss
animadversions ana preacuas a sermon
upon the ethics of private letter-writing,
as the Times did on Thursday, we have a right
to look for a certain measure of com
mon sense ana tairness. it criticises the
style and matter of Mrs. Calhoun's letters
with as much severity as if they had been
written for the public and challenged exami
nation and review. It says that they are full
of "transcendental rubbish." Why shouldn't
they be? Surely a lady may write "rubbish,"
transcendental or other, to her friend if she
chooses without calling down the critical
wrath of the limes. It says she "gossips"
and "makes mischief all round." This is not
true; but if it were it would only be an im
peachment of the discretion and good taste of
the writer. The publication ot almost any
private letter would embarrass the persons
who were alluded to in it, and Airs. Ualhoun s
ore perhaps no exception to this rule. But
the references in them to individuals are
none of them unkind or malicious, and.
at worst, they betray only that sort of indis
creet enthusiasm in which women are so
prone to indulge. To found, as the Times
does, a general arraignment of the writer upon
grounds of this slender sort is, we grieve to
say it, absurd. Ihe letters are appropriate
subjects of comment only as they relate to
the case betore the court. With their lite
rary style or personal allusions the 1'iines has
nothing to do. They were not written to be
criticised, like a leeture or a poem. If the
writer were on trial, the contents of the let
ters would aid us in forming an estimate of
her character. But she is not on trial. Like
many other innocent persons, she is acci
dentally involved in the publicity of a legal
process; and if chivalry had not departed
from the bosoms of lawyers and the attio
cells of editors they would treat with more
Gentleness and justioe a lady whese only fault
appears to have been too earnest a fidelity to
a friend who does not seem to nave been
worthy of her friendship.
THE FARCE OF CONTESTED ELEC
TIONS.
From the If. T. Herald.
With all the important publio business
nressinff on the House of KeDresentatives.
that body has been spending two wnoie days
in the partisan work of voting to seats men
whom their constituents had eleoted to re
main at home. In vain did the chairman of
the Committee of Ways and Means object to
this interruption of the consideration of the
Tariff bill, which has been dragging its slow
length in Committee of the Whole for the
last fortnight, not counting the time occupied
in general discussion. The dominant majority
could not resist the demand of party, and
the important business of the country had to
give way to the petty interests of individuals,
First came one of the Louisiana cases, in all
of which the theory of the various Republi
can claimants is that it the negroes had
voted, and voted for them, they would have
been elected; and then came a Pennsylvania
case, where the sitting member, a democrat,
had to give way to his opponent on equally
plausible grounds. There are many other
cases of like character that are to be called up
before the session draws to a close each of
them to occupy time which might easily be
applied to better purpose.
There never was a greater farce in legisla
tive bodies than this one of contested elec
tions. No matter what their several merits
or demerits be, there is but one conclusion
inevitably to be reached, and that is that the
seat is to be given to the person who is of
the politics of the majority. The unfortu
nate individual who trains with the minority
might just as well yield without a straggle
Now and then an unmanageable member will
kick over the traces and vote according to his
conviction, as the irascible but unstable
Bingham did the other day in the Louisiana
case; but these eccentricities never affect the
general result. And the extraordinary spec
tacle is presented, whenever one of these
judicial questions is submitted to the House
of Representatives, of the facts being inter
preted in one way by the members of one
party, and in the opposite way by members
of the other party. What a high estimate of
Congressional purity and independence this
state of things is calculated to impress on the
public mind !
'J. here is but one remedy for this abuse and
for the systematic contempt of popular elec
tions which it brings vth it, and that is for
the House to renounce all interference with
the matter. Whoever Dresents the proper
credentials of election should be admitted to
his seat, and if any person oontests his right
to it let him do it before the judicial author.
ties of the State. If the Governor of a State
gives a certificate of election improperly that
question should be tested there, not in wash
ington. The courts are the proper forum for
the adjudication of the question, and to them
it should be remitted. The present system is
nothing but a gross partisan trampling on
private and publio right. What member will
be honest enough to initiate a meaSure that
will put an 'end to it and restore some little
confidence in the finality of popular elections?
Learning; to Cook.
A new mania has sprung up among the
Edinburgh ladies not quite a useless one
a fancy to learn to cook. Several of the lea J
ing confectioners advertise "cooking taught,"
and have large kitchens and bakeries titled
up for the purpose. Until reoently the classes
have only been attended by young ladies who
will probably find the use of the practice
when they become wives and mothers; but
lately the desire to achieve wonders in the
culinary department has spread to those who,
in all probability, will never see the inside
of their own kitchens when they oome ' to
rule a household, and dainty damsela put off
their silk attire, their rings, and their adorn
ments, and, donning linen dresses and white
aprons, become for the nonce amateur oooks.
One confectioner goes the length of having
blouses prepared for bis students exactly
similar to the costumes worn by eccentric
artists.
Internal Revenue Stump ('an
celler.
To the Kditor of The Evening Telegraph.
A communication appeared in the rress a
few days ago with reference to the authority of
Commissioner Poli.no to prescribe stamp can
cellers. Section 157, act July IS, 18(W, is quoted. That
section reads, In part, "that tho Commissioner
of Internal Revenue bo and ho Is hereby autho
rized to prescribe such method, etc.
Is the language "suoh method capablo of a
construction to mean mors than one method f
Can the Commissioner prescribe several different
methods T He has prescribed "Wheeler's,"
"Holt's," and "Chamberlain's," and, It Is under-
t-tood, has agreed to approve several other
"cancellers."
Now, as he has approved of three distinct and
pcparate methods, and is about to approve of
other methods, which one of all these will he
require the 'imperative" use of? The.lattor
part of the section roforred to roads, "And ho is
further authorized, in his discretion, to make
tho application of such method imperative upon
the manufacturers of proprietary artlclos, or
articles included in schedule C, and upon stamps
of a nominal value exceeding twenty-five cents
each." If "Whcoler's" is purchased to-day,
will not "Holt's" be imperatively required to
morrow ? And when "ilolt's" Is purchased to
morrow, will not "Chamberlalu's" be impera
tively required next week ? And if there is to
bo an uncnumerated variety prescribed, may
not "his discretion" by May 1st prescribe that
none of them shall bo used: and, like the
"Klsh book," they all be consigned to the "tomb
of the Capulets ?"
As stamps upon documents of value, such as
deeds, bonds, etc., must be legally cancelled, It
bocomcs a very nico 'question, What will bo the
legal form of cancellation, after April 30, upon
such stamps ?
As the law will only require tho uso ot "such
method" upon stamps "of a nominal value ex
ceeding twenty-flvo cents each" (we refer to
schedule B, which is tho schedule for documen
tary stamps), why has not the Commissioner seen
fit to exercise "his discretion," and required an
"imperative use of "such method" upon such
stamps, so that tho public might know exactly
what form ot cancellation was legally required,
and no doubt be cast, hereafter, In any leal
tribunal, upon the form of cancellation.
This is very Important; and every buyer of
realty, purchaser of mortgage, or other title or
eccurity, wants to be assured of a certainty In
the premises.
Let the Commissioner try his hand at thl mat
ter once more, and see If he cannot make a clean
thing of it.
The Commissioner says these cancellers "may
be used," or else stamps when used must be
cancelled by writing tho initials of the user and
the date when used thereon.
This is alternative, and contrary to law. The
new method must bo a 'substitute for" or an
"addition to the method now prescribed by
law" so reads section 157. "Wheeler," "Holt,"
and "Chamberlain" ought now to go into part
nership and issue the most profitable stamp
canceller, withdrawing tho others; else they will
simply cut one another's throats, and that
would be cancelling tho cancellers. .
We think this suggestion of ours a good one,
because tho public can afford to pay better for
one good thing than be obliged to pay for five or
six cheap things that are good for nothing.
These gentlemen should each now send you a
long advertisement.
