WASHINGTON, March B .—Representative
Bontwell to-day made a report from the
Committee on Reconstruction, signed by
'himself and Representative Washburne, of
Illinois, in which they state that the colored
people are undoubtedly loyal and one-half
of the whitepeople disloyal. East Tennes
, see is strongly loyal, and Middle and
- Western Tennessee disloyal. There are
about 120,000 - white males of the voting age,
and 80,000 colored of the voting age, in alr
about 200,000. The proposition of the com
inittee heretofore reported places the State
'Government in the hands of about 60,000, or
three-tenths of the adult population, to the
"exclusion of seven-tenths. Representa
tives Boutwell and Washburne thinks
it better to give the elective
franchise to all loyal meb, in order
that the Government may be permanently
maintained, therefore they prcpose an
amendment to the proposition by affixing .
another condition for the admission 01
Tennessee, namely that in conferring the
elective franchise no distinction shall be
made as to race or color.
From Canada.
TORONTO, C. W., March S. The Globe of
this morning has the following special de
spatch from Ottawa:
Immediately upon the arrival of the Hon.
Mr. McGee from Montreal a cabinet coun
cil was held. At this important setting
there were present John A. McDonald,
Galt, Campbell, McGee, Chapras, Bockbarn
and`Ferguson Blair. In view of the pre
sent circumstances and the vast amount
of property at stake, 'and the more impor
tant consideration, the protection of our
fellow-subjects along the frontier exposed
to the marauding operations of the Feniaus,
it was resolved to call out 10,000 Ivolunteers
• for the protection and defense of the Cana
dian frontier. This step is adopted mainly
• as a precautionary measure, but if wanted
for more active service the volunteers will
be_on hand. It is hoped that active exer
tions will not be necessary, but if they are,
the government relies on the confidence
and courage of the Canadian volunteers.

SUPRIIICE COIMT AT Nist Equity—Jus
dee Strong.—The City of Philadelphia, et al. vs. The
Lombard and South Streets Passenger Railway Com
pony. In' this case, which we reported on the ergo
ment of the bill in equity and demurrer theretdlustice
itrong this morning delivered the following opinion
The first ground assigned for the demurrer to LI .
complainants' bill is that the Legislature cannot
delegate to the city of Philadelphia the right of
assenting to or departing from the exercise of ths
franchise conferred by the General Assembly upon
the defendants. In support Of this reason it is urged
that, by the Constitution all tpe legislative power of
the Commonwealth Is vested In the General As.
sembly; that it is in its nature inalienable, and th-.t
a delegation to the city of a right to dissent from the
exercise of a public franchise granted to a corpora
tion would be an admission of the city to a share in
the law-making power. It is undoubtedly true that
the Legislature cannot admit any other body to a
participation with Itself in the enactment of a law,
nor can it delegate to a local legislature, or even to
the people of a municipality the power to determine
whether a law shall have vitality or not. But th
principle is misapplied when ft is used to negative
the power at the Legislature to grant a franchise de
pendent upon certain conditions te of which may
Be that before it can be exe • e assent of som s
person or persona shall be obta Stich a gra n t .
though having the form of a law, after all, in au
stance but a conveyance of a portion of the public
right, and there is no reason why it may not be partial
or subject to conditions precedent, as well as unto
stricted and unconditional. When the Legislature
creates a crrporation, with power to build a railway
On a street of a city subject to the assent or dissent of
the City Council to such a use of the street, the assent
of the Councils gives no force to the legislative enact
ment, and the dissent does not destroy it. No legisla
tive power is delegated to the City Councils by such an
act. Their interposition is a mere condition attached
to the grant, a restriction of the franchise. The
right to build the railway is not conferred ab
solutely, but, is made dependent upon a
contingency. Our ha*a are full of cases in
which grants of power made by the Legislature, the
exercise of which was made dependent upon the ac
tion of a portion of the people, or the approval or dis
approval of some municipal corporation, have bees
sustained as legitimate action of the General Assembly.
P yen the case of Parker vs. The Commonwealth, 6
Barr, 507, relied upon by the counsel of the dela:wants,
recognizes and approves the distincti on between a con
dii ion in law, valid under the Constitution • and a dele
gation or transfer by the Leg stature of its functions.
Without undertaking to cite those cases. I refer to two
only, in which the principle is clearly enunciated.
In Commonwealth vs. Painter, 10 Barr, 514; an act of
Assembly directing the. County Commissioners to
determine the exact site tor. and to erect public bail Z
ings in the new county town of Delaware coin
if a majority of the voters, of the county
should vote in favor of the change, was held to be con
stitutional. And in Moers vs. the City of Reading, 4
Bar., 188, where it appeared that an act had been
passed empowering the corporate authorities of the
city to subscribe for shares in the capital stock of a
railroad company and requiring theta to submit the
question ofsubscription to a popular election .th e result
of which should determine their action. Black, C. J.,
in delivering the opinion of this Court, used this Can
guage: "It is argued that this Is not an exertion of
legislative power by the Assembly, but a mete delega
tion of It to the people or Reading. We cannots.eit mu
that light, Halt the statues on our books we fn the a,
ternative,depen d in g on the discretion ofsome person or
persons to a horn is confided the duty of determining
whether the proper occasion exists for exerclsin
tberu But it cannot be said the exercise of such a
discretion is the making of the law. New prlvileg.e
conferred upon a public corporation, need not he a , "
solute and peremptory, so far as to force them on tee
members against their consent. When individuals, or
corporators, are merely authorized to do a thing, 0..•
doing of it necessarily depends on their owe wi 1, an .I
we can see no reason why the acceptance of a new
power, tendered to a public corporat w
l ion,
may not be made to depend on the I
of the people when it is expressed by them
selves, as well as when It is spoken by the mouths •.f
Mar °Ricers and agents." This language, it is true.
was spoken of poet ens con ferred upon a public corp
ration, but it shows clearly the distinction betwee n
makings law, and a cardinal grant of power. I co
elude then, that the Legislature we
competent to grant to the defendant, a right co
build a railway on certain streets of this cita
and make the exercise of the right dependent
upon the assent or dissent of the el %
Councils, or in other words, grant a franchise limit-e
by the condition that the Councils should assent to the
Occupation of the streets. But even if this is not so, it
will not help the defendants in this case; for, if their
right to build a railway is, by act of Assembly, made
dependent upon their obtaining the assent of the Ca v
Councils to its exercise, and the Legislature hiid no
constitutional power to grant a franchise thus •
siricted, the act of Assembly is void, and the defend.
ants have no right at all to construct a railway.
The next question raised by the demurrer% is„ whet-.
ther, under the act or Assembly by which they were
incorporated, the defendants can construct their ra,i
wwy over and along the streets named in the bill, t

thence down

person or body corporate shall be allowed to remove
the cobble pavement on any of the highways ()tithe
city without procuring the assent of the Councils of
said city. The tenth section of that act (P. L. 1861,page
707) enacted that they should be subject te all the ore i
nances of the Councils of the city. This, then,
was a condition of the grant of the franchise,
and a s the grant Is to he construed most strictly
r gsinst them, the subjection must be regarded
as asnbjection to the ordinances then existing, one
of which was a. prohibition against removing cobble
pavement on any highway without liret procuriug
the assent of Councils. The subjection spoken of in
the act extends to all the powers granted, as well
for the construction of the railway as for its subse

diflerence. and no reason for a difference is seen.
The Legislature recognized a paramount authority
in the Councils, and, I think. with great propriety.
a his was ruled in this ,Court on the 31st of March, 1863,
by my brother Woodward, in a case between the same
parties in bleb' it was Sought to restrain these de
h'ndojlts limn removing the cobble , pavements on
Lombard and South streets, for the purpose of bu/Iding
DAILY EVENING BULLETIN : PHILADELPHIA, FRIDAY, MARCH 9,1866:
their railway. In that case he ruled that the act un
der which they were incorporated (the same act I am
now considering) did not authorize the defendant to
construct a railway on those streetswithout the
consent of tbe City Councils. I concur with his opin
ion. It is true that atter decision was made, the de
fendants obtained a Supplementary Act of Assem
bly (the Supplement of April 14, 1863), by which
they were empowered to extend their railway from
the intersection of Front and Lombard streets, along
said Front to Dock street, and along said Dock
street, to Delaware avenue, and they were au
thorized to construct ar d lay the said railway, with
out obtaining the consent of the City Councils.
This very supplement fortifies the construction I
have given to the original act of 1861, for if under that
act the consent of the City Councils was not a prere
quisite. the last mentioned provision of the supple
ment was superfluoub.
But the supplement covered nothing more than the
railway then authorized. It was the railway as de
scribed in the first act, and its supplement, that the
defendants were authorized to construct without
obtaining the consent of the Cley Councils. It
was that alone. Being a private corporation, the Act
of Assembly is not to be held as giving them any
more power than plainly appears in the words of
the grant. As to the streets and parts of streets
which it was contemplated the defe,dauts might
occupy in the construction of their ral.way, then in
view of the Legislature, consent of the Councils to
the occupation and to the removal of the pavements
becathe no longer necessary. So far . the com
pany was relieved from subjection to the ordinance
of February 28, 3860. On the 18th day of May,
1865, however, the defendants obtained a further sup
plementary act, by which tney were authorized
to extena their railway track north, by Frott, or Water
street, to Walnut street, thence down said Walnut
street to Dentware avenue, thence al ngsaid Delaware
avenue to Dock greet. This is a new extension, along
other streets and parts of streets, not in the
view of the Legislature - when the supplement
of 1363 was enacted. It is not the railway
spoken of in the supplement of 1863. To its construe
tion and use, I think., the provision of the first act,
making the Company subject to aU the ordi
nances of the City Councils, applies. The act of
1863 did not repeal the tenth section of the act of
1861. It only excepted. Partially, from the ope
ration of that section the railway as then
authorized. lam of opinion, therefore, that the de
fendants have no right to remove the pavements, and
construct a railway on the nsw route described in the
act 011865, without first obtaining the consent of the
City Councils And, If this ts correct, the city of Pitu
ladelphia, being the legal custodian of the streets
which the defendants propose to Invade by their ex
tension, has exhibitedfin its bill a right to the restrain
ing power of this court.
Here I might conclude. This in fact disposes of all
the reasons assigned in support of the demurrer. and
conducts me to the conclusion that they are without
foundation. The bill does present a case tor an in
junction against the proposed use of those parts of
ont. Water, and Walnut streets, land Delaware
avenue, defined in the supplement of 1865 as the route
of the new extension. •
Therc , is, however, another consideration which is
total to the demurrer, though applicable to Delaware
avenue alone.
The bill charges that Delaware avenue, from' Dock
to Walnut, Is not a highway over and on which the
Commonwealth has any power to grant any fran
chise. except on making coms , ensatlon to the city of
Philadelphia, as trustees under the will of Stephen
Girard, and also to make compensation to the other
complainants, who have aided the city by agree
ments and otherwise lu accomplishing the Objects
enumerated in said will (some of which agreement ,
ate set out), and that Delaware avenue is not a Wein
way made so by due process of law, or by a plenary
dedication of the owners of landed estate. The ile•
murrer admits all the averments of fact contained
in the bill though I agree it does not admit mere
Inferences °flaw. It is argued that the facts thus
clanged are averred as legal inferences from other
fact+, bpecifically stated, Ido not think so. They are
averred dirt ctly and positively, and while It is true
that reasons are given fur the averments, and that
Um• e reasons coi.sist of other facts, those facts are
stated as evidence only in support of the main ..ver
ments. And looking at them. without relying upon
what Is urged to be only a legal dedu..ttot
from them, I am of opinion that they show rights In
the complainants superior any constitution;
power of the Legislature to grant any private corpora
tion the privilege of making a railway upon Delaware
avenue without prov ding tor compensation to th..
city of Philadei plata, as a trustee under Girard's
will, and compensation to the other complainants.
who have made conveyances or agreements ex
pressly to suiserve the purposes of the trust. Dela
ware avenue Is not such a highway as Is under the
unlimited control of the Commonw,alth, the mode or
use of which can be regulated by the Legislature at
its pleasure. TI e public right is very peculiar, and
there Is nothing in the bit to diminish the force and
effect of the averment that Abe avenue it not a high
way thatlV Legislature can appropriate, or gran:
the use of a railroad corporation , without providing
for corupemation to the complainants as owners of
private property.
I wtll not now spend time to consider the question
whether, under Mr. Girard's will. bequeaththg pit) co.
to the Commonwealth on the conditions deszrioeti
therein, one of which was that laws should be enuctem
to ens b e the making of the avenue, the removal o
obstructions.and the prohibition of obstructions east
ward thereof, coupled with the acceptance of the le
gacy, a contract was proffered and concluded, by w Itch
theOnremonwealth was disabled from autnorizing a
railroad on the avenue even upon making compensa
lion. This is a grave question. and the present care
does not demand an answer to it. It is enough that the
trustees under the will. and the t,trantors to the trustees
for the purposes defined in the will, have cot so de
voted it to public use, a• a public highway, that it can
be used for a railaoad, without their assent, and with•
out compensation made to them.
„
The demurrer of the defendants Is. therefore, over.
ruled, and a perpetual injunction to the defendants
will bedecreed against extending their railway alon::
Front or Water street to Walnut street, and down
Walnut to Delaware avenue, without first procuring
the assent of the City Councils of Philadelphia; and a
perpetual Injunction will be decreed against construct
lug a railway along Delaware avenue from Walnut to
Dock streets, or on any part thereof.
