SECOND_EDITION. BY TELEGRAPH. LATE FROM WASHINGTON. THE COLORADO VETO MESSAGE BE-OPENING OF POST OFFICES. An Additional Ass't Sec'y of the Navy. THE MONITOR MIANTONOXIAH, She is Going to Eu ope. THE CHOLERA. IN NEW YORK. NO NEW OASES OR DEATHS. The l'retddentle y iti t l f t . of the Colorado ab the Senate of the United States: I return to the Senate, in which House it originated, the bill which has passed both Houses of Congress, entitled '‘.A.n Act for the admission of the State of Colorado into the Union," with my objections to its be coming aaw at this time. First. From the best information which have been able to obtain, I do not consider the establishment of a State government at present necessary for the welfare of the peo ple in Colorado. Under the existing territo rial government all the rights, privileges and interests of the citizens are protected and secured. The qualified voters choose their own legislators and their own local officers, and are represented in Congress by a delegate of their own selection. They make and execute their own municipal laws, subject only to revision by Congress an authority not likely to be exercised un less in extreme or extraordinary cases. The population is smitll, some estimating it so low as twenty-five thousand, while advo cates of the bill reckon the number at from thirty-five thousand to forty thousand souls. The people are principally recent settlers, many of whom are understood to be ready for removal to other mining districts, be yond the limits of the Territory, if circum stances shall render them more inviting. Such a poptdation cannot but find relief from excessive taxation. If the Territorial system, which devolves the expenses of the Executive, Legislative and Judicial De partments upon the United States, is for the present continued, they cannot but find the security of person and property increased by their reliance upon the National Execu tive power for the maintenance of law and order, against the disturbances necessarily inoidentto all newly organized communities. Second. It is not satisfactorily established that a majority of the citizens of Colorado desire, or are prepared for an exchange of a Territorial for a State Government. In September, '1864, under the authority of Congress, an election was lawfully ap pointed and held for the purpose of ascer taining the views of the people upon this particular question; 6,192 votes were cast, and of this number a majority of 3,152 was given against the proposed change. In September, 1865, without any legal authori ty, the question was again presented to the people of the Territory, with a view of ob taining a reconsideration of the result of the election held in compliance with the act of Congress, approved March 21st, 1864. At this second electitm, 5,905 votes were polled, and a majority of 155 was given in favor of a State organization., It does not seem to me entirely safe to receive this last mentioned result, so irregularly obtained, as sufficient to overweigh the one which had been legally obtained in the first electioia. Regularity and conformity to law are es sential to the preservation of order and a stable government, and should,, as far as practicable, alwa be observed in the formation..of newlaißtes. Third—The admiision of Colorado at this time as a State into the Federal Union ap pears to meta be incompatible with the pub lic interests of the country; and while it is desirable that Territories, when sufficiently matured,uhould lie organized as States, yet the sptrit of the Constitution seems to re quire that there should be anapproximation towards equality among [the several States comprising the Union. No State can have less nor more than two Senators in Con gress. The legest State has a population o four millions; several of the States have a population exceeding two millions, and many others have a population exceeding one million. If this bill should become a law, the peo ple of Colorado, thirty thousand in number, would have in the House of Representatives one member, while New York, with a pop ulation of four millions, has but thirty-one. Colorado would have in the Electoral Col lege three votes, while New York has only thirty-three. Colorado would have in the Senate two votes, while New York has no more. Inequalities or this character have al ready occurred, but it le believed that none have happened where the inequality was so great. When such inequality has been allowed, Congress is supposed to have permitted it on the ground of some high public necessity, 'and under circumstances which promised that it would rapidly`disappear through the growth and development of the newly ad mitted State. Thus, in .regard to the several States in what was formerly called the "Northwest Territory," lying west of the Mississippi, their rapid advancement in population rendered it certain that States admitted with only one or two representa tives in Congress would in a very short period be entitled to a great increase of re presentation. So, when California was ad mitted on the ground of commercial and political exigencies it was well forseen that that State was destined rapidly to become a great, prosperous and important mining and commercial :community. In the case of Colorado I am not aware that any national exigency, either of a political or commercial nature, requires a departure from the law of equality which has been so generally adhered to in our history. If information submitted in connection with this bill is reliable, Colorado, instead of increasing, has declined in population. At an election for members of a Territorial Legislature, held in 1861, 10,580 votes were cast. At the election before mentioned, in 1864, the number of votes cast, was 6,192, while at the irregular election, held in 1865, which is assumed as the basis for legisla tive action at this lime, the aggregate 'of votes cast was 5 905. • Sincerely anxious for the welfare and prosperity of every Territory and State, as well as for the prosperity and welfare of the whole Union, I regret this apparent decline :in population in Colorado; but it is manifest that it is due to emigration, which is going nit from that Territory into other regions - within the United States, which either are in fact, or are believed by the inhabitants of Colorado to be, richer in mineral wealth and agricultural resources. If, however, Colorado has not really declined in popula tion, another census, or another election under_ the authority of Congress would place the question beyond Aciubt, - aitdOatistio but little delay in the ultimate admission of the Territoxy as a :State if - desired -- by the : people. The tenor of these objections furnishes the reply which may be' expected to' an argu ment in favor of the measure derived from the Enabling act, which was passed by Congress on' the 21st day of March, 1864, al though Congress then •supposed that the condition of the Territory was such-as to warrant its admission as a State. The re sult of the two years' experience showathat every reason , which existed , for the institu tion of a Territorial instead of a State gov ernment in Colorado ,at its first organiza tion still continues in force. The condition ,of the Union at the present moment is cal culated to inspire caution • in regard to the admission of new States. Eleven of the old States have been for some time and still re.= main unrepresented in Congress. It is a common interest of all the States, as well those represented as those unrepre sented, that the integrity and harmony of the Union should be restored as completely as possible, so that =all those who are ex pected to bear the burdens of the Federal Government, shall be consulted concerning the admission , of new States, that in the meantime no State shall be prematurely and unnecessarily admitted to participation in the political power which the Federal Government wields, not for the benefit of any individual State or section, but for'the common safety, welfare and happiness of the whole country.

He will cross the ocean in the Monitor iron-clad Miantonomah, for the purpose of personally presenting to the Emperor of Russia the resolution of Con gress congratulating him on his eseape from the hand of an assassin. He will also re port upon the present condition of the prin cipal navies in Europe. • It is not generally believed in Europe that one of our Monitors can cross the Atlantic, but the incredulous will soon have a de monstration of the fact. The Miantonomah is at Halifax, awaiting the arrival of Capt. Fox.

M.—The Memorial D(plomatique denies that France has made energetic remonstrances in relation to the Austrian armament in Venetia, and- says that the despatch sent td Vienna on the sub ject was couched in the most courteous terms, and solely requested confidential explanations respecting the object of the Austrian preparations. The Austrian Government replied pro testing that it would maintain a strictly de fensive attitude. France accepted these explanations and the result was a mutual understanding ac cording to which Austria undertakes: should Italy attack Venetia independently of France, Austria will not secure for her self any of the eventual results of victory without the diplomatic intervention of France. • ' It is asserted that one object of Austria in menacing Prussia and Italy is to force Eng land to assent to the convention of a Euro pean Congress. Latest via Queenstown. Lownox, May 6.—Prussia has declared to the Diet that the warlike preparations oh her part are entirely defensive.

They have bioken ground west of the bridge, and some forty, or fifty men were employed this morning in excavating, lay ing ."sleepers;" and placing "cross-ties," while the iron rails lay alongside, ready to be placed in position. The' company will, carry out the track and probably afterward as far as Gray's lane, an extension, which would, without " doubt, prove a paying concern. At the junction of Market streetand Dar by road. the tunnel is at last completed, and men are engaged in fitting and setting up a massive wanite coping, as a guard, on the sidewalk. It has a handsome appeaianoe. The chestnut street bridge has advanced farther in the last week, than it has done in the last two months, and is, at last, rapidly approaching en completion. At the Al s House there was but little business. There were 10 admissions, i 4 male, 6 female; births, 1; deaths, 1. Insane Department-4 were discharged, 3 male and 1 female, and 2 men eloped.
