AMONG the important measures which
filled to pass, at the recent session ofl the
Legislature, were the bill to unthoriz l e the
election of a elxth Supreme Judge, the
third Philadelphia police bill, and the
local optioi temperance bill.
IT WA telegraphed on Thursday morn
ing, from Harrisburg, to a prominent rail
way official in Philadelphia, that the
Senate was then hearing the Governor's
vela message read. The renly came back
over the wires: .1 don't believe it l" He
had mistaken hie man. That was all!
Gov. Braintit, of Tennessee,, is in
Washington, at the request of the Rouse
Committee, for consultation upon the at
fairikof hli State. lie thinks be could
keep the peace If he had the control of au
ample Federal force. . This substantlaily
concedes the truth of all the bad accounts
we have bad, of social disorder and of the
Impotence of legal authority In Tames-
Wa name, from California, an idle
story of an effort to organize resistance
to the operation of the new Article in
that State. The report. is only worthy of
credence In this, that it represents the
opposition u confined to the Democracy.
The foolish people could not playa surer
card to lose their present control of the
State. Nullification of that stripe would
soon make California thoroughly Re
publican.
SIMATOR LOWRY may contemplate his
failures, which would mortify the pride of
any man but him. Re did not get his
new - county, with its premium on his
town Ints, nor his canal enlargement,
with its lucrative margin on the present
property, nor his cross cut railway with
half a million for him to disburse. He
has gained nothing at the late session, be
yond the execrations of his outraged
constituents and the hearty =decant of
honest men everywhere. And all that
lie had before.
GOVIERNOR CISABY hu unanswerably
vindicated the wisdom of the framers of
our Constitution, in confiding the pre.
motive of the veto to the ExecutiVe
bands. The friends of Legislative abso
lutism have frequently chafed under an
ezercias of this power which hae not
comported with the views of a temporary
majority; indeed, the power may often
have been abused in the history of our
National and State politics, btit such
transitory evils are remediable In an
other way quite in keeping with the ab
stract Idea of popular sovereignty, while
the unrestrained prerogative itself has in
more than one instance proven to be the
bulwark of public rights, and the defense
of our public obligations, against influ
ences otherwise Irresistible. The Gover
nor has now not only won golden opinions
for himself, but he has powerfully for
tified his most conspicuous prerogative—
that of participation in the law-making
power. He has simply been faithful to a
duty which an intelligent people, with
their eyes open, entrained to his ban&
Tax ensoo Juror, in theirpresentment

power manifested by the Executive of the

merely the growling of some "bear with

In the paragraph immediately preced

of the bills brought before them were of

The suppression of anything like-a fair
record of the. prowedingi and debater of
the Leglibstrue was, maulfestiy, a pert of
the programme of that powerful co-robi
n/Mon of Jobbing peculators which, In
November last, was organized to Control
. the ensuing session and direct all of Its
enactments, to the pecuniary and political
profit of the conspirators. They saw. their
fair opportunity to excite a popular odium
against the old "Record," which was
clearly a job, and for which past Legialit-
WWI were especially responsible, and they
improved It to sweep away everything
like &complete record of the current pro.
wading". Complying partially with the
letter of the Constitution; they sanctioned

an unfaithful member could not rely upon

The recent session proves to us that. the
rascals were shrewd, In blotting out the
dangerous testimony of a correct and
minute report, 'and that they have abused

an hone Legislature will have no trouble
In securiag its honest and prompt publica
tion. Said Speaker WIIITZ, of the Senate,
in his bffef but sensible inaugural ad
dress :
While at the opening of the session
there wee a diversity of opinion among
es as to the propriety of a continuance of
a publication of a Record of Legislative
Proceedings In an expeditious, accurate
and economical manner, there, is now.
after the experience of a whole session
without any record whatever.. except a
brlafJournal, no difference of opinion I
apprehend among us. All seem to agree
that a Legislature, closed to the 11VOTIDOU
of public opinion,,partakee more of the
character of a Star Chamber than the
Legislature of a free people. I (runt the
opening of the next session will see us all
united on a Policy In thltOregard, Just to
ourselves, the. constituencies seyerally
represented, and to the Commonwealth
at large.
=
The great corporations which have so
effectively controlled our State legislation
at the session just now dozed, will have
less inclination to disapprove of the Gov
ariior's veto, of the omnibus railway bill,
when their managers consider, as they
well may, what other important results
were otherwise certain to. follow. That
veto postikiii - el, for the present, at least,
a question, the agitation of which could
not fail to affect the interests of the cor
porations; It has deferred an Issue-which
It will not be for the advantage of any
interest whatever to provoke . ; upon
which there Is no incorporated power In
this Commonwealth strong enough to
challenge the popular sentiment or , , to
brow-beat the public sense of law and
Justice with impunity.
When we say that, in this veto, Gov.
ernor Geary has not only defended the
interests and protected the reputation of
Pennsylvania, and saved the Republican
party from that impending blow which,
for a season, would have obliterated all
distinctive lines as they have heretofore
existed, crushing both parties alike, but
that he has also shielded more than one
corporate institution from a storm which
was already gathering, and which would
have swept -down very soon and with
destructive fury, upon Influences tempo.
rarity perverted and so obnoxious to the
popular judgment, we say no more
than the situation warrants. It is
not to bbe denied that such illegit•
unite inilucnccs exist; that they have
grown already very powerful, that they
are constantly increasing, and that they
should and must be restrained and di
minished. Governor Geary has put up
one barrier to check them; whether more
shall he here!iter needed and supplied by
public opinion will depend much upon
the discretion with which corporate
wealth and ambition.ahall profit by thin
lesson, es a hint in season, and withdraw
from Its offensive -- policy of aggrandise
ment at the expense of every popular
tight rad public Interest in Pennsylvania.
The events of the past winter, the - cul;
minating audacity of purposes and tactics
which have been growing more and more
obnoxious to tho public mesa for years
fast, leave the people of this Common
wealth in no temper to- be trifled with
further. Hereafter, they propose to man
ago their own legislation, without such
interference, and to shape the policy of
the State, in every respect, so as to pro.
mute the greatest good of the greatest
number, regarding all Interests alike.
It will not' be wise, or safe, for any
special interest, of no matter what reach
or consequence, to Interfere with this
exclusive sovereignty of the people. There
has been altogether too much of it, here
torero; there mast be very much less of
this, hereafter, or the consequences will
be inevitable and may be disastrous to
those intrusive influenees.
. We are sincere friends of these corpo
rations, as being a legitimate and most
effective element in the development of
social and material interests. To that, as
their proper functions, we desire to see
their energies always , confined. Within
all safe and proper bounds, we shall go
with those who go farthest in upholding
their special privileges. Beyond that,
we can neither justify oreven consent to
ignore any dangerous Intrusion upon the
rights which are reserved to the people
alone.
It would be idle to attempt to deny the
probable grounds for the public belief
that corporate influence has been quite
too potential in controling our legisla
tion of late years. We submit to all
concerned that the tune has come to draw
off from the Capitol lobbies. The man. ,
agers of h6.r great companies are men of
marked ability and shrewdness. We
suggest to them that it may be a blunder
to Ruh these tactics any further. It is
not wise to alienate friends, or to inflame
opPoittion. Let them In their political
as In their financial, in their Illegitimate
uln their legitimate operations, exhibit
an Equal sagacity, and lose no time in
reconsidering and abandoning tactics
which, in the long run, are certain to bo
unprofitable.

At the close Ofthe war much anxiety
was manifested fur the temporal welfare
of the vast number of freedmen suddenly
lifted out of bondage into the enjoyment
of full liberty. Reared In slavery, de.
prived, in the great majority of instances,
!of even a primary school education,
never taught seltrelfance, "Wingers to
economy, never having
_any money to
economize or invest, end totally Ignorant
of all the laws and principles of business,
Ruby truly were objects of much - concern
to those deeply Interested In their general
welfare and who helped to bring about
their freedom and independence. Croak
er*, with no , nnwanantable grounds
'whereon to base their baleful predictions,
propounded Ui, problem "what was to'
become of these helpless people since
taken away from the lowly cabi ns
where they were under the fostering
ewe and guardianship of Intelligent mas
ter* 7" . .No answer could wall be made,
and all awaited with prayerful anxiety
the solution of the question trOhe newly
made freedmen themselves. The result
has been fairly worked out. The slave
negroes, although never ambitions before
the boon of freedom wag extended them,
seemed fully anal keenly to realize their
situation, and to feel that the eyes of the
world were bent upon them and that they
were charged to.irork out their destiny as
a class, alone and unaided. They thronged
to the schools opened for them to acquire
education; became more Industrious;
straggled mannilly to gain the better
opinion of those who despised them and
the.greater confidence of those who had
Lined them cp, ;and In ill* new life
extended the milling band of help_an4 •
iriendllnese towards them. They were
not long Ia learning the value of mlney.
and instinctively became economical.
Many used the first fends acquire by
by
their own labors to find more congenial
hinnes In the North and West, and, in
Ailing useful places to life, were lost
sight of as freedmen in the full rank and
position with their brethren who
never had known the galling
chains of slavery. The prosperous
and happy condition of this close every
where Is a matter of congratulation, not
only to the earnest pioneers who labored
for their emancipation but likewise to all
good citizens no matter how strong their
past doubts, prejudices and misgivings
may have been; and moreover, it-devel
ops s mental and physical capacity - in the
negro to take care of himself and a
worthiness to enjoy the full rights of a
citizen in a free government.
in order to better Illustrate the pros.
perity of the former slaves of the country,
we cite the instance furnished by the
fifth annual report just mado, and for
which we are indebted to the General
Manager, our former townsman, Col. D.
L. Emu, of the financial condition of
the National Freedmen's Savings Coin
party, having its head quarters at \Yeah
ingtort—a corporation, the charter of
which was approved by. President LIN
COLN In . March, 1865, Its object being to
foster and encourage economical and
Industrious habits among the freedmen of
the land. There aro seventeen branches
of the parent institution located in .as
many cities, and the depositors are ex•
elusively freedmen. During its opera.
tions, five years, the sum of $12,605,782
was deposited, and the Increase is so
rapid that the managers find It ,111111 cult
to keep pace with the extra demands on
their time and financial labors. There
have been drawn out over $10,000,000
during the same period of time, most of
which was applied to the purchase of
lands and homesteads, and the establish
ment of mercantile and mechanical bust
nesses by the depositors. The great sue•
cess which has attended the operations of
the Company; encourages us to hope tkat
we have, as yet, only seen the beginning
of the work of economy among the people
of color. It is ample evidence, however,
of the thrift, frugality and economy of
the freedmen as a clan. The deposits
have averaged 73 per centum of an in:
crease, one year upon another since the
opening of the bank, and the ratio is
largely on the increase.. This flattering
exhibit will be received with pleasure by
all interested In the welfare of the freed
men of America, who have been called
to enjoy, under the XVth Amendment,
full participation in our government.

The SPost'l and We School question
The Post makes a rude assault upon the
Allegheny School Controller, who intro
duced the resolutions pledging the Board
against a division of the school fund.
While It indulges in very coarse epithets
in regard to his credibility, it charges
also that ho has reaped but small intellec.
tall advantage from common schools. It
likewise effects not to know hint. But a
good many years ago, when the Post held
• much higher litera ry rank than now,
the editor made personal application to
that now obscure individual, invitine him
to write for his paper, upon any subject
except politics. Be complied, and wrote
frequently, and his articles were conspi
cuously headed, lcadol and Poet ed; and
at times flattering editoriali called the
particular attention of the reader to them.
But now, I when ho happens to- tread
somewhat heavily upon the toes of the
Post's theological peculiarities, be is tin
gratefully spurned. This is shabby con
duct from the Post, whose tallest leather

PITTSBURGH DAILY GAZETTE: MONDAY MORNING, APRIL 11, 1876
Ohio and the P. Pt. VV. C. Road
Some time since Mr. Gaston offered in
the Ohio House of 'Representatives a res
olution instructing the Committee on
Railroads to make certain inquiries rela
tive to the Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and
Chicago ltiiiroad. Among them was
ono which embodies all, to-wit: "By
what authority does does 'the said rail
road company exercise the privilege of
acting as a corporation within this
State?" The resolution was adopted and
the Committee on Railroads act to work.
Deeming the question of great import
mace, the matter was referred to Attorney
General Lord for his opinion.
In compliance with this request, the
Attorney General submitted the following
opinion :
"0 mem OF TUB ATTOBNET G En t
COLUMBUS, April 4, 1570.
"Hon. D. J. Callen, Chairman of
Standing Committee on Railroads of the
House of Representation: Stn—l nave
examined, as far as my limited time will
allow, the eubJects spoken of in House
resolution No. 66, - 'submitted tome by
your committee, and have the honor to
reply as follows:
"First and second. The Ohlo and Penn
sylvania Railroad Company and the Ohlo
and Indiana Railroad Company were
originally two corporations of the Slate
of Ohio, authorized and organized. under
the Railroad Act of 1848, and of 'course
under the old Constitution.
"Under the act of 1852, (8. A: C. 280)
and the act of May, 1, 1836, (8. C.,
827,) these two companies were, in Au•
gust, 1856, with the Fort Wayne and
Chicago Railroad Company, consolidated,
and the new Company took the name of
the Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Chicago
Railroad Company. This act of consoll.
dation, I am satisfied, merged all the
property, rights, privileges and franchises
of said two Ohio Companies, with - the
Fort Wayne and Chicago Company,
except the franchise .of corporate -ex_ 41,..
ence. This right or franchise to be a
corporation, sa i think, remained with the
old companies undisturbed; notwithstand
mg the agreement: for consolidation,
believing that under the Constitution the
new company could not, even with the
aid of such legislation as then existed,
or any other 1 legislation, acquire
the right to corporate existence - in this
way. In 1861 suit was instituted by the
mortgagee's of the different companies
forming the new company, In the United
States District Court for the Northern
District of Ohio, and a decree rendered
directing that the property, righti, and
franchises of these corporations should
be sold, and under that decree sale was
made of all the propeity, rights, and
privileges of-the old companies and the
new company that could be sold, or upon
which the mortgages could have a lien
by virtue of their mortgages... The fran
chises of corporate existence was nut
then the subject of lien as property, and
therefore did not pass by the sale, but re
mained where it originally was. Maier
and others bought what was sold and no
more. Lanier and others, In 1862, sold
to the Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Chi
cage Railroad Company what they bought
and no more, for they had no more to selL
"This last company, to whom Lanier
and otherifiold, is a 'foreign corporation,
created by the Legislature of Pennsylva
nia, and own the properly bought by it
of Lanier &Os-, and operated that - part
of its line of road lying in Ohio (prior
to Its lease to the Pennsylvania Central
Railroad Company), or claimed to °per.
ate it under the seventh section of the.
act of April 11,.1861. That statute ex
pressly provides that such company 'shall
exercise no power, privilege, faculty or
franchise within 'this Suite inconsistent
with the laws thereof, and that such part
of such railroad shall be subject to all
regulations of law in the SWIM manner
railroads In this State in like cases, and
that the corporation owning the same
shall be subject to all duties imposed by
law, and be sued, in the same manner as
a corporation of this State might be sued,'
&e, (Ste proviso to Section 7.)
"So far, then, It seems clear the present
Pittsburgh Fort Wayne and Chicago
Railroad Company is without corporate
existence under the Constitution and
laws of Ohio. Under the Coustitution
and laws of Pennsylvania it cannot exer
cise corporate powers in Ohio.
'A franchise to - 13 e a corporation is
originally a part of the sovereignty of the
State. The State granted to persons de.
litmus of exercising corporate powers ..-
portion of this sovereignty. Tills' sov
ereignty, in its original position, or when
so granted, cannot exist outside of the
State to which it belongs. It follows
that Ibis company has no corporate exist.
ence in Ohio.
"Upon principles of comity, it is 'per
mitted to operate that portion of Its rail
road in Ohio, subject In all respect.. in
the general laws of Ohio regulating rail
roads. It Is a grave. question—and Ido
not now propose to discuss it—how far
this principle of comity ought to be ex
tended to a foreign corporation. Wheth•
er it should be allowed the rights of ems.
sent domain, or even to own real estate
in Ohio, or to operate and monopolize its
great thoroughfares.
"It may be claimed that, under the act
•of May 4, 1863, (8. and C., 131,) this
new company has 'acquired the franchise
to be a corporal on.' If this be the case
then, it seems t me Section 1, Article 19
of the Constitu on Is of little avail, or
Section 2 of the a article either.
"Here is a for Ign corporation, by this
statute vested wi h the special privilege of
'acquiring' cor to existence as a cor
poration in Ohl y a special mode.
"This section of the Constitution can
not be help, It seems to me, to warrant
the perpetuation of special privileges In
this way.
"9.- 1 can find no official evidence of
the lease of this road to the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company; .nor do I know any
authority under which such a lease can
affect the portion of said line in Ohio,
unlessit, be Implied from Section 7 of the
act of 1861 above referred to.
"4. The present operators of said rail•
road have no general office In Ohio, so
far as 1 can ascertain, as to mode of sar
vice. Bee B. and C. 642, act of April 80,
1860, also B. and C. 118 and 110, Sections
46 and 47..
"0. I have no data to determine any
thing ea tp the teenage of capital stock
referred to.
"6. The Attorney General has full
power to proceed, when complaint is
properly made against any corporation,
etc., (sec S. and C. page 80, act of May
1,1862), and until some person shalltusve
shown himself aggrieved, It is hardly ne•
cowry to order the Attorney General to
Institute proceedings. This is, however,
a manci purely in the discretion of the
General, Amembly.
"F.lVery respectfully,
B. Poem, Attorney General."
Alter §eceiving this opinion the com
mittee held several protracted meetings,
at which the matter was fully discussed
in all Its bearings.. Some of the dinette.
Mon was warm,. and demonstrated that
nothing was to ho done without good
cause fur It, As the result of these de
llberatione,lbe committee Lave prepared
the following report:
"The Committee on Railroads, to whom
was referred House Resolution No: Mt--
relative to the corporate existence of the
Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Ohicago
Railroad Company—having had the same
under consideration, find that the said
company Is not a corporation under the
laws of the State; that tholineot railway

The Lem* says very little, but its
observatibris are most emphatic: "The
Napoleonian dynasty," M. Emile de

Who now, if bold enough .to attack it,
- would be strong enough to shake it
There cannot 'fairly remain the smallest
room for distrust in any impartial mind.
Those who still questioned the sincerity
of the Emperor can no longer."
IA Miele says: "It would be puerile to
endeavor to attenuate the importance of
the determination taken by the Emperor,
in accord with the Cabinet. The Impe
rial - letter severs the cable which still
bound us with absolute poweet"
L' Cpinioh, Nationals says The Em

the constitutional transfo &Son on
which we have entered. Ilsl g the Initia
tive which no ono in a parliamentary
country, whether monarchial or republi

Chief of the Executive, he has, restored
-the constituent power to the Sovereign
superior to all other Sovereigns—the only
real one, the nation I Tim surprise,
the discomfiture, we will even say tke
despair, will be for the Orleanists, and not
for either the Democrats or Napoleonists.
La Pateis says : This letter shows
that the Emperor, with the admirable po

Tun I)emocratic journals of the coun•
try are evidently -reduced to a desperate
strait for soma tangible and probable
ground of opposition to the present Ad

into the necessity of impugning the
motives of President Grant in advising
the acquisition of San Domingo. In
honorable contrast to the slanderous In:

generally is the following from the Boston
Post:
Nobody who knew the President has

the Ban Domingo treaty, with . wleUffer
errors of Judgment and taste in the meth.

by patriotic motives. The definite pob.

shown that there was. much to be said In
