The law is protested against as providing an additional qualification for voters ; as, depriving qualified voters of their oppor tunity to exercise the right;'aspreventing all elections from being free and equal, and as imposing upon judicial officers duties not of a 'judicial character.

TUE CASE.OF GEORGIA. We were gratified to observe the state ment, current a day or two since, that the President had called upon the Attor ney General for an opinion on the pres ent political relations of the people of Georgia to the Union. Here, we thought, would be at once discovered some effec tive method for dealing with the disor derly condition of affairs in that State, so that, at least, outrages should be checked by the strong hand of some vigilant gov ernment.. Deploring, as wealways have, the interregnum which commits Georgia to an anomalous position where an ille gitimate, because not yet legitimated, domestic authority is not respected, and where the Federal power is held in abey once, and practically unknown to her people, we have always been equally clear in the opinion that, under existing legislation, the State V Geoeqia has never been legally taken out of the proper overa lion of the several acts providing a tempo rary government for the rebel States, so long as she Should fail to complete her own restoration to the Union. The discordant action of x the XLth Congress was really an embarigsament to that body alone. It was like any other incomplete legislative action which, be ing incomplete, must be counted as no action whatever. The disagreement of the two branches upon the question of Georgian restoration worked a result ex- actly the same as would a disagreement upon any other measure within the scope of their legislative discretion. It left the case where ft was first found—unaltered ill all particulars. Under•Pthe eonatita-- tional rights of the House to judge.of- the qualifications of its Members, it hid com mitted itself, by the admission of the State delegation, to the same results in that re gard a 4 if the entire restoration of. Georgia had been recognized in all the forms of legislation, ana by the sanction of all de partments of the government. But neither the Senate• nor the President did concur formally in that sanction; the first expressly declined to,do so,"and the sec ond had no opportunity either to'approve or veto any bill expreasive finally of the Federal sanction. • It is as difficult to perceive any substantiai ground upon. whichthe people of Georgia should be entitled, in this state of facts, to claim their release from the operation of the laws far their provisional government, as it is to understand why the. Adminis tration has hesitated so Ling, to deal with a situation which no legal formality has varied since those laws were first enacted. Unless our government is to be adminis tered with a tender regard for what shOuld be the law, instead of for *hat actually is and remains the unchanged law to this hour, we are unable to appreciate the I seeming reluctance of , the President to „ , enforce that la* to its sharpest verge, and with the;same color of authority now as • • in 1867. J,. 4 The attempt of the last Congress to perfect, Georgian reconstruction was failure. . Why is it not to be 50 regarded? 1 1 What perfected Federal recognition can /her people dila, for their exemption from the operatiori •f the existing laws for their tempora ry governidentt, Had the . two Houses of Congress agreed' .In the admissktn of. her delegatiens to member- I ship, her cue would be otherwise. Had both Houses also agreed; and with the 1 1 President's approval, in.the further deela ration of her fully restored righta in the Union, that would leave no room for controversy now. But the record shows nothing of either sort; it simply shows that the effort for her reconstruction did"' not succeed. An 4, so, .by the plainest legal con- .1 sequence, the Federal statuiLof Gem:- gift 113 the same as it would have been with no such effort whatever.. why, then, the President should hesi tate to require an opinion from his legal adviser upon*these facts, or why,the torney General should hesitate to declare that opinion promptly and frankly," gh,.. ing the question the go-by on some col lateral point, cr• why, short, there „ ahould be entertained, in anyluaTter,,,a, I® ' • , . • ' I i r • a. - ar ,,, e — ,,... at'-,,lffs----,*1 , - , -; -f-- - - - „, , ,w - -4.,, ----4,,,,,,,*,4-4-4-,A -..,--,Tztc-,,,,,,.imzp,-,,,:y,---,,-...-,,,„.:.,...,_,,._..,.,._ ' • ----,....=401-1, ' ' ,F xl,-,-; ' , g - 'i' '-'l.

If the last Congress disagreed upon this question, the present Congress has not— and the President can find nothing in the action of either of them to restrain his convictions of duty. If the last House was a little too fast, the Georgians them selves have been at faster, in setting the wheels of their Sta government in mo tion in advance of a perfected Federal sanc tion—and it is high time that they should ,be checked in what is clearly an whims !tion of State rights. l Divested of misunderstandings, and tripped of its false pretenses, this case of Georgia is a plain one. We have only to look at what it is, and not to what it should be, rind there would be no diffi 'culty in discovering the Olin dufy of the Adnunistiation in the premises. There are, at plesent, indications that the case is so regarded at Waehingtbn. When this view shall be practically adopted, we f , shall once more see the existing laws en forced in Georgia, and her people brought squarely up to the perception of how much they have yet to do, for the re-es tablishment of all their "practical tions" to the. Union. STLUBENVILLE LETTER. Brilliant wedding and Receptlon—Fe male Semlnary--Gazette agent. [Perri suorulenee of the Pittsburgh Gazette.] STEUBENVILLE, Ohio, June 9, 1869. A must brilliant affair came off in this place last evening. It was no less than the celebration of a marriage, ceremony be tween J. B. Dorrington,tEsq., Pittsburgh. Citicimindi and St. Louis R. R., of Pitts burgh, itho hats been long known as one of the best railroad officials in the ooun , try, and a most energetic, tuicommodat ing and accomplished gentleman, . and Miss Agnes J. - MoDonald, one of the fair est and most highly educated and refined daughters of Steubenville. The cereony was performed Revs. A. M. Reid, m J. R. Kerr and John by Doug: las, in the First United Presbyte- Church, the pulpit of which rt l id i the furniture in the immediate neighborhood were decorated most pro fusely and tastily 'with flowers, the frit. grance of which, as it diffused itself through the large audience chamber, was trulyrefrisahing. The church was well filled with as brilliant an assemblage ofladies and gentlemen as we have seen "for seine time, and, we may as well say it here, gtenbeuville has sointthing to boast of in, the matter of ladies. Whether it is because they live beneath the shades of the oldest Female Seminary west of the mountains, we will not say, but, we know that in petiteness of members: gracefulness of movement, dignity of de portment, ability in conversation and skill and taste in the display ofciostumes, they will compare favorably with any we have met in any other place. About half past nine o'clock the bride and groom entered the church 'and took a position immediately in front 'of the pulpit. Wc never saw our friend Dor rington more self -composed, or looking better. Miss McDonald was' equally at ease and dignified in. her bear/pg. She was dressed moat beautifully, and, as all the Mies testtileft with whom we have had the pleasure of conversing, with great chasteness, The ceremony did not occupy five minutes in its performance, and at its close the happy couple, with out receiving any formal congratula tionS, retired to the residence of the bride's mother. ' The recePtion ceremonies commenced at Mrs. McDonald's a little after ten o'clock, and from that till Iwo in, the 'morning &constant stream of the elite of the city kept pouring up and down the 'Stairways and through - the parlors. Where all looked so charming and fasci nating it might be considered: invidious to particularize, but wek; know that we will be pardOned when we say th 4. Prominent among the gay and splendid throng of Madames and Mademoiselles were the beautiful, refined and acoom plished'danghters of the Hon. T. L. Jew ett, President of the P. C. & St. L. R. R. Prominent among the railroad officials we noticed our excellent friend John Musgrave, Esq., of the C. & P. R. R., and W. W. Cardi Esq., Superintend ent of the P. C. & St. L. R. - R. Although we have known Mr. Card well by repu tation for some tinie, we never had the pleasure of meeting him till last even ing. ,Our expectations were more than' realized. 'He is a thorough gentleman, and his capactity for his preseat.' position is evidenced sulticfently by, the " , ;yresent excellent condition of the "'Pan andie Road," of which he is the worthy Super intendent. There could not, we think, have bean less than between three and four hundred persons present at the re ception. We must refrain therefore from farther personal notices. With the exception of,the apartment which contained the "bridal.presents," which were at once numerous, costly and pseful, none were more:extensively patronized than those in which refresh ments were served.' Upon these we will not dilate. Suttee it to say they have purveyors in- Stenhenville,, who knot* both the quantity and quality of refresh- Merits necessary for_a party of the num tors and character nientioned Shove.

' which can boast, we believe, that the anunever sets on young ladlestrained and educe. ted within its walls, is.etill in a very 'flourishing condition.'- It being vises. tion, its spacious halls were comparative ly deserted. But this was cortmena4ed for by the excellent music which Mia Grayson discoursed, and the lively and eloquent conversation of Miss Phillips, i who is as celebrated for her converse :tonal powers, as she is for her ability as an authoretat. This is a flrat-class Lisa. nation and is well patronized. - • Weshould adttl D hat Mr. and Mrs. or rington left this morning at seven o'clock for Cleveland, .whenee they purpose Making a bridal tour : to the Pallier Ni agara, Quebec and Montreal.

Boyer, wooden still, ito. I United States vs. the distillery of Jim Nelm, Sr.. one copper still, a°. United States vs. William . M cKim, Wm. J. Friday and George W. Smith, partners, doing business under the firm name of McKim & Co. Action in ;debt, to recover one thousand dollars penalty for an alleged violation of the revenue , law. The defendants are engaged in the i , business of distilling, and, in Decamber of last y e ar year started a new distillery on Thir y-eighth street, this city, plans and spenftications of which were pre vious to starting the establishment,' ;sub mined to the Revenue Department at Washington, D. C., and approved. `The distillery was put in operation on Christ mas day, and about the first of February the Supervisor of Internal Revenue vis ited the establishment and found, as he alleges, thdt the apparatus did not fill' the requirements of the law. The regula tions or the Department stipulate that the apparatus shall be so constructed ai to allow the government officers an oppor tunity of detecting any fraud that might be perpetrated or attempted, and pro vides that the receiving cisterns; of which there shall be two, shall be Rea ted in a building provided for the express purpose, and that the Uuited States Gauger shall carry the'key of the same; that they shall be constructed in such a manner as them being tap to prevent the possibility of d and the spiits ab stracted without p t he knowledge r of the gauger. This regulation, it appearis, *as fully compiled with, but the Supervisor discovered, as he supposed, a violation of the law in another part of the appa ratus. The highwine tub which is situ ated at the terminus of the still, and, is used for the purpose of ascertaining the qnantity and quality of the liquor, was so constructed, that liquor might be sib stracted before reaching the receiving cis tern, that is it has an aperture at the top, about 12 by 14 inches, which was made for the purpose of having access to the liquor to ascertain its quality. The de fendants held that this was no infraction of the law, that the law did not content plate the construction of the appratus so that spirits could not be abstracted, but that itphould be so constructed and alto ; ated that by proper vigilance the revenue officers,the storekeeper and guager,would be enabled to detect any attempted fraud. The plaintiff held that it was a violatiott of the law t • but did not .charge the de fendants with fraud, or •an attempt to Perpetrate frau but merely with a vie ta of one or th e provisions of the law made to prevent fraud. The case was opened by District Atl- , tornoy Carnahan on behaltof the United States, and defendants were represented by David Reed and A. - M. Brown, Esqs: Alex. P. Tcitlen, sworn:-.1 . am Supervi sor or Internal Revenue; have been since November, '63; visited the distillery of McKim it Co. in the early part of Feb: ruary. The distillery is situated in this; city on the Allegheny river. The dis-' finery was in operation; I found at the' outlet of the worm two cisterns, the; high-wine and low-wine tubs, into which they run the spirits; the highwine tub; had an opening in the top ten by twelve inches, allowing free access to the spirits; manufactured before it reached the cis tern; by attaching a hose at this opening all the spirits; could be taken away before it reached tits Cistern. room; it was not only possible but an easy manner to; take 1 away all the spirits before it reached the 'champ; there were pipes connecting this tub with the cistern; the cistern room is aboutftwenty-ftve feet from the highwine tub; I do not , know bow long the beendistil-, tory has running. Mr. McKim was present when 1 inspected the premises. Cross.examined--I was there in the 1 early part of February, in the afternoon. Mr. McKim went through the building 1 with Me. There was astorekeeper there , also. It Is customary to keep a store- keeper present all the time the distillery is running. Mr. McKim said he could not run the,dlstillery with the aperture referred to open. Ido •net know that it is necessary to have a hole of that kind. There are cocks attached to the pipes of all distillezies; the liquors might be ex tracted by unscrewing the cock; or it might be done by drilling a hole in nit highwine It was not necessary to have a g tub at this distillery; most or all distilleries have low wine tubs, but a very few have 'highwine tubs; they ran their highwines direct to the cistern room. I think in thiaCongreasional dia -1 trictthe distilleries all have highwine tubs. I have not visited over fifteen or twenty distilleries In the district. I don't know of any liquor having been exl , tracted fi opt the aperture described. Chris, flan Leazure, sworn.—l am Clerk for the Supervisor of Internal Revenue. I visited McKim dt Co.'s distillery about the sth of February wish Mr. Totten. I think the distillery is on Thirty-eighth street. I foiind an opening between the end of the worm and the receiving cis tern, in the highwlne tub; the tub was '''a large copper vessel, and had an opening about one• foot spire. The worm con nected with this tub. This highwine tub was about one or ,two fest from the worm tub.t The cistern was idwer than the so that the spirits would ran di rectly from the worm to the cistern. The aperture was such as to allow act easel° the irits before the reached the receiving sp room. I visited t he eaten lishinent in January, and found Mr. lido., Kim there bothftitnes, and the distillery in operation both times. I think the liquor was running from the worm when we were there. The distillery was in operation. Cross-examined —lt is custonnirii;! .to have a highwine tub, ' and where the spirits are separated as they are at this inatillery,lt is necessary to ;have a man to watch the high wine tub, ;and turn off 'the rlowwlnes. • I think at my tint visit that there was an artificial light, so as to tell she quality of the liquor. The testimony for the plaintiff heie closed. • ' , ?. David Reed; Esq.. opened the Mule - for defendants. He held that if this opening' had been made by defendants for 'the purpose of defrauding the GoveinMent by g abstractinuor, 'then the of fence .would bethe li complete and defend* . ants would:" be liable, but the'oPanink - having been made to correct a defect in the distillety, 'which was new,' and to regulate Its .workinos t no oftenee orvio latiOn of the law tad ..been committed , and defendatitemere nettherefore liable.

Plaintiffs did not charge the de fendants with fraud, but only with a vio lation of the provisions of the law. William McKim, sworn—l am one of , the deferdants. The firm is composed of Mr. Friday, Mr. Smith and myself. The distillery was put in operation first on Christmas day. The distillery is. ' lo cated on Thirty-eighth street. We run steady until February, except a few days, when we stopped for repairs. I was the managing partner. lam a practical dis tiller. The,distillery was erected under my supervision. ( Witness here gave a detailed description of the construction of the aparatus and the process of menu factaring whisky.) He stated further: That at the terminus of the worm there was a “three way cook," by means of. Which the liquor could be thrown into either the highwine or lowwiae tub. The highwine tub was a second hand one. It had a hole in the top twelve by fourteen inches, over which it was in tended to place a glass plate through which the whisky could be seen. He ed te run the distillery at first with the glass on, but owing to the quantity of steam tie apparatus would not work right and the plate had to be taken off. The highwines passed from the tub through'a step cock into a pipe, then to the received room, in which are two re ceiving cisterns. These cisterns are erected in a room built for the purpose, in accordance with the law. Mr. Totten, I think,, did not go into the cistern room. The apparatus was inspected by the Col . lector, Assessor, and 'the former Stir . - veyor. There was a Storekeeper at the distillery all the time we were running. The Storekeepers are 'appointed by the . Government, but the distiller is taxed to pay him.. When we run at night there was a night Storekeeper present. Whis key might be extracted from the tub either with the glass on or off. Mr. Shannon and my son had 'charge of the high and low wide tubs, and it was their duty to turn off the low wines. The Storekeiper's office wasin the distillery, ' opposite the highwine - tub. The open. ing referred to was in full view of per sons passing near the tub. It Was on top of the tub. The highwine tub is for the purpose of retaining the whiskey to ascertain the quantity and quality, I never saw a distillery without a high wine tub for making rye and corn whis ky. ° Cross-examined -1- The store-keeper keeps the keys of the bonded warehouse. The United States Gauger keeps the keys of the receiving room, and we have no access to it except when admitted by him.. The plans were approved by the Revenue Department at" Washington. 'Samuel Shannon sworn—l was beer runner at McKim & Co's distillery; I ran the high And lowwine tubs; my, place was near them all the time; there was a difficult in the worki of the paratu on account of the mash ng coming ap into the s, highwlne tub,and spoiling the highwines. lam still employed at the distillery. Mr. Samuel McKim was employed with me. The glass plate -was off the aper ture about three weeks; it was afterwards put on and sealed with sealing wax. This was after the new still was put in. It was put on in the latter part of Febru. .ary. muel McKim sworn-1 atn a son of Wm. McKim andtwgs euiployed in the distillery; it was inrduty to watch the proof of the wiskey and see that it. was running right. There was a difficulty when we first started, on account of the mash being throws np and rising into the bigliwines. The glass was put on about the 10th of February, after the new still was put in. The testimony hero closed. ' Mr. Reed opened the argument to the Court and jury on the part of defendants. He held that the law or section of the law tinder which this action was brought, does not contemplate the, construction of .the apparatus, so that liquor could not be obstracted, but so that it could not be smuggled out without the knowledge of the government officsrs. At 'the conclusion of Mr. Reed's argn 'ment the Court adjourned. and the case will be argued before the jury Thursday morning • . _ District Court—Judge Kirkpatrick.
