THE L►tt,UOEt LAW.
The warmest opponents of intemperance
we presume, will not deny that the present
lie,enselaw has altogether faied to effect the
object of its enactment. In our own city, for
instance, it is disregarded to so great an ex
tent, that there are probably four places
where liquor is 501 , 3 without a license to one
licensed house. The failure of the Oommon
wealth authorities to enforce the law results
in the disturbance of public justice and the
increase of law breakers. The State Treas.,
urer, in s;eaking of this subject, says : "That
large amounts of revenue are lost to the Treas
ury by the refusal of persons to apply for
their licenses, who prefer to sell without, rath-
er than pay a tax which does not fully
protect them from cornpgtitio'n from those
who didregard the law.' Persons ti wh an li
cences have been gr .nted by the Board re,,
fuse to take them out, and prefer to run the
risk of a violation of the law. So far as pro
vention of breaches of the law, (he public au
thorities seem to be ineffic4'nt. It is not
a mere spirit of lawlessness on the part of
those who disobey the present enactm nt,
which so unsuccessfully prevents the enforce,
meet of the law, and in view of the dangerous
tendency of the example of systematic law
breaking t. other clases of otlenders, it is emi ,
neatly appropriate that our Legislature should
adopt a different and, if possible, a better
system than the present one. As a revenue
measure the present law is n-ither expedient
-nor proppr. The Excise system, for that is
- what it amounts to, is not consonant with the
true principle of social science, upon which all
just and equal laws are founded. Why should
the legislature recognize any distinction he-
tween those who sell liquor, and those engag
ed -in the sale cf Lny other commodity ? As
tong as liquors are classed Is legitimate obs
jects of commerce, not distinguished from
other merchandize by the wholesale dealer, the
attempt to restrain their sale to tte consumer
by a heavy . tax, will be cinsidered unjust anti
oppressive, and it will be found intpo-sib'e to
enforce the law, as laws which are wholesome
-are and ought to tie egosy ,d. The restraint
which the law impos.estdoes not restrain the
vice of drunkenness in the_ least degree, and
the example of those who break the law with
impunity, leads to the perpetration of offenses
innumerable against the good order of society
and the public welfare. If it is a legitimate
article of commerce, which it is by our laws,
there can be no good reason why a retailer of
liquors should pay a heavier tax than any
other dealer, and it has always been our opin
ion, that the roost effectual cure for the evils
of intemperance would be to remove all re.
straints from tif.tis class of merchandize, and
to adopt stringent laws for all abuses arising
out of it. The vices and dis . ortleis, arising
from the use of intoxicating hunors,should be
punished by an inflexible administration of
the laws. Drunkenness should rot be suffered
to excuse more flagrant offenses attributed to
its eacts Experience has shown that sump
tuary enactments upon this question are use
less, and the revenue feature of the present
law is but unequal taxation in another shape
Let the Legislature place liquor sellers upon
the same foot lig with the venders of other
commodities, and then make such laws as
will punish them for any breach of the laws.
The present state of things is against the dig
nity of the law, and we hope the present leg
islature may devise and enact an efficient
remedy. They have past experie-ee to guide
them, and whatever they do, let it be of such
a character, that the authorities of the Com
monwealth can enforce their enactments, for
the present almost universal disregard of
the law is little better than petty treason to
the State.
' The legislature of Minnesota has passed a
bill loaning five million of State bonds to the
several railr ad companies organized at the
last session, and for whom is held in trust the
munificent grant of lands from Congress for
railroad purposes. The act, which has created
a great deal of discussion and party spirit,
both in the legislature and out, provides that
whenever either of the said companies shall
complete, ready for the superstructure thereon,
ten miles of road, the government shall cause
to be issued and deliver to said company bonda
to the amount of ono hundred thousand dot
lars, and so on till the loan is exhausted.
is further provided in the act that, as it is in
violation of the constitution, it shall be sub•.
matted to a vote of the people, and that lour
fifths of each road is to be completed before the
year 1866, and, in case of failure, that all the
rights, titles, and claim of the said company
to the lands aforesaid shall be forefeited to the
State. These bonds will form a basis for the
banking business, and will doubtless soon b..)
found in Wall street.
On Friday last the army bill of Mr. Quit
man, passed the House of Representatives, by
the hinds me majority of 124 to 37. It au
thorizes the President, to call for Ave regi
ments of volunteers. It will now go to the
Senate where it will probably be amended, a.
as to make the regiments regular troops, and
in this shape it should become a law. More
troops are needed on the frontier ; the Utah
army must be re•inforsed, and the route
across the Plains kept open. Congress eau
dispense with regulars as easily as with vol,
nnteers, and volunteers are expensive. `ATe
hope partizanship will not defeat this Lill.
It is for the good of the whole people,
On Friday, pending the discussion of the Ap
propriation Bill, in the House of Represents.
tives, a proposition was made to increas- the
annual pay of members hereafter - to seven
hundred dollars for the session. The last ses
sion was an uncommonly protracted and la
borious one, and the members voted thom
telves two hundred dollars extra compeng
Baden, waking seven hundred dollars for that
session. As the present Legislature have
the last one for a precedent, we suppose the
dditional compensation will pass of course.

we are cognizant of the fact that he is no ap

used by not too partial frieFids,as a means of tes
tifying the appreciation of those high legal
abilities which have rightly placed Justice
Lewis in the front rank of American jurists.
97orr• Vngixbanda
It appears, by a correspondence published
in the London papers, that the Porte is endeav
oring to purge Turkey of a horde of Italian
malefactors, who had become the scourge of
solety. It appears that they were to be sent
to America or Australia ; but whether because
there is more room or more virtue in those
countries, the imperial Turk does not explain.
There are eight hundred of these malefactors
to be disposed of, by throwing them uron the
generosity of other nations. America is the
" asylum• of the oppressed," but it does not
fallow that she should become the workhouse
for all the vagabonds of Europe. Our native
growth of clime is quite sufficient, without
any exotic aid.
Ide.2lcan Affairs
Mexican affairs do not improve any. The
Zuloaga government seems to be absolutely
powerless to establish order. Al desperate
conflict was expected to take place about the
6th or 7th instant, at Ceyla, the government
forces and the opposition being about equal as
to forces, each having some 6,000 troops.
The Extraordinary has no hope of peace for a
long time. The Zuloaga government had
made a forced levy to secure soldiers, and for
this purpose was seizing upon servants as they
issue from the houses of their employers.
This has produced so much fear that servants
refuse to go out on their employer's business.
The Jaurez, or Federal government, was at
Guadalajara, and its friends report that the
States of the interior are combining to over.
throw that of Zuloaga. The Church has come
to Zuloaga's aid with a million and a half of
dollars in paper, Which is at forty per cent.
discount. What the upshot will be, no one
can predict ; but if Zuloaga can raise money
the chances are decidedly in his favor.
Letter of General Calhoun
The following is Mr. Calhoun's letter on the
aansa3 election, to which reference has hereto
fore been made :
WASHINGTON CITY, March 19, 1858
As there has been great anxiety to learn the
result of the late election for members of the
State Legislature, under the Kansas constitution
now before Congress, I think it proper to state
that recent information, through Governor Den
ver and others, leaves no doubt that the returned
vote from the Delaware Crossing precinct, in
Leaven wort h - county, should be rejected, and that
certificates of election should be issued without
reference to the vote of the precinct.
A month ago I was put in possession of a news
paper containing what purported to be the afil
davits of the judges of election at that precinct,
and, in a communication to the Union, 1 imme
diately stated that, if the facts contained in said
affidavits were presented to me in an authentic
and reliable form, I shculd be governed by them
in determining the result of the election in Lea
venworth county- Although I have not received
any reply to my letter to Gov. Denver, yet from
various sources of information I am left in no
doubt as to the statements of the judges of elec
tion at that precinct; and I shall, therefore, is
sue the certificates of election to the persons
having the highest number of votes in Leaven
worth county, irrespective of the Delaware Cros
sing precinct. I regret to add that this decision
will give the control of Kansas to the party which
I view as the enemy of the peace and good order,
the constitution and laws of the Union. To the
following persons, elected in the several Senato
rial and representative districts of Kansas, cer
tificates of election will accordingly issue:—

About 9 o'clock on Thursday morning the
Peekskill train was coming down Eleventh
avenue at tho rate of speed allowed by law with
in the city limits, and when at' Forty-fifth
street a shoemaker, named Thomas Finich,
attempted either , to cross the track or get
upon a car of the train and was run down and cut
to pieces. A great excitement was the cons
sequence. Upwards of two thousand labor
ers, quarrymen and mechanics, gathered
upon the track, and when the police had placed
the body upon a ladder, and were about to
remove it, the crowd assaulted them, and they
were obliged to desist for a time, but subse ,
qnently managed to remove the body to the
Station House.

Riot in New York
The 10f t o'clock morning train, on arriving
at the spot, was stopped by the mob and had
to back up the road for several blocks.
Women hurled stones from the house t , ps, as
the train passed, upon the cars, as well as at
the police, who were endeavoring' to preserve
order. The most they could do was to prevent
the rails from being torn up. By o'clock
a large force of police had reached the scene
and further violence was prevented Eight
arrests were made
The Concert on Thursday Evening.
Mr. Grow, the tgeut of the company an
nounced to give a concert in City Ball on
Thursday evening, arrived in the city yester
day, and was engaged during, the day in per
fecting arrangements for the concert. •The
sale of reserved seats will commence at nine
o'clock this morning. at the music store of
John U. Mellor, No. 81 Wood street. The
price of these tickets has been fixed at $1,50.
Other tickets will be sold at sl;commencing
on Thursday morning. All that we have to
regret is that these celebrated artistes can
give but one concert here. Vieuxtemps or
Thalberg alone could till the ball ; but when
we have them combined, and in addition such
artistes as Nlad'lle Cariolini, Miss Annie Kemp
and the English tearr, Mr. ?erring, is it any
wonder that anxiety is felt concerning the af
fair ?

the bill was finally passed, and needs but the Gov
ernor's approval to become'a law.
THIRTY•s'IFTH CONGRESS
FIRST SESSION
Yesterday's Proceedings
Mr. Stuart said he would not discuss the question
on the abstract principles of slavery, but on the
ground that the action of the Lecompton Conventi.n
was an intentional fraud upon the people. He then
followed with considerable closeness the clauses cf .
the President's message, contending that its ratifier,-
ing in some cases was fallacious, and, in other cases,
absurd. He was astonished that the President would
in this special message say that Kansas was in a state
of rebellion, and yet propose to admit this rebellious
State into tae Union. He would not recapitulate the
history of Kansas; that had been done. There are
two factions in Kansas: Abolitionists who support
the Topeka Constitution, and a squad of Southerners
in favor of the extension of Southern institutions
and the Lecompton contrivance. But the great body
of them are against both these Constitutions. Ile
cited various proofs in support of his position. Ile
next turned to the actual state of Kansas when the
President made that memorable statement as to ru-
hellion. It was at the time of the October electiol
when the mail and telegraph brought word that a
was peace there. It was absurd to say that the pe
pie, having the government in their own bands, ar.d
exercising it under the tiovernor appointed I.y the
President, was in a state of rebellion. The peop e
peacefully prepared an issue by which they cf:u'd
express their objections to the proceedings of the
Convention. They did so by ten thousand majority.
The President having established, as he then thinks,
the Constitution, on principles of right, proceeds to
defend it on the principle of expediency. For him
self, Mr. Stuart, his view_ of a Territorial Con
stitution is that It is an incipient movement fur
the formation of aState. If presented to Con
gress, and refused, it is no longer a Constitution.
Mr. Stuart pleaded earnestly for .a conciliatory
course on this question. Let the Kansas act, he
said, be fairly executed; let the people make their
Constitution in their own way, and there will be
peace in Kansas and in the country. Let the people
exercise a privilege which, with all within our bor
ders, belongs to them, and in a few days we can her
ald throughout the Union that Kansas has had her
rights secured.
The galleries were so crammed that a lady fainted.
Mr. Douglas has just entered and is holding a long
private conversation with Mr. Green; he looks sick;
everybody is trying fo get a peep at him. The
Turkish visitors have also just entered.
Mr. Bayard proceeded to demonstrate by reference
to numerous legal authorities that Lecompton was
, framed with all duo formality ; that the majority in
I Kansas wore bound by the vote of the minority in
asmuch as they are held to ascent to what they could
bave avoided if they chose. Be had heard that
there were no frauds in the vote as to whether or not
Kansas should be admitted. The frauds were at a
subsequent legislative election. Congress, he con
tended, had nothing to 4o with that. Arguing to
the question of submission, he thought it would have
been better to have submitted the constitution to the
people, but that submission was not necessary to its
validity. It does not establish but merely tolerates
slavery, and that the Legislatuee can at any time
emancipate slaves in Kansas with the owner's con
sent, or by paying about $150,000 can set the whole
population free without the owner's consent.
Mr. Broderick reviewed at length the circumstances
attending the repeal of the Missouri ConaproinLee,
and the eoasequeneas folloting repeal, 'The
South, he said, had by that fatal tnea'aute, destroyed
its own interests, and Was now seeking a remedy by
the dissolution of the Union; tut would dissolution,
he asked, prevent the immigration of free labor into
the South? No ! Wherever there is land for homes,
there free labor will find its way. Had the Missouri
line been permitted to stand, the free laborer would
not have attempted to cross it. A E'enator bad said
that Cotton is King, but had omitted to tell us about
the fluctuations of that staple. Gold is King, said
Mr. Broderick. He represented a State where labor
is honorable; where the highest persons are not
ashamed to own that they have delved in the earth.
He was glad the Senator from South Carolina had
spoken about white slaves. He hoped ;hat his lan
guago would stir up the two hundred thousand
white men in that State who are now kept in sub
jection by the thirty thousand wealthy slaveholders.
The Senator from South Carolina had called Northern
laborers slaves. He did not tt . ink him personal,
otherwise he should have noticed the remark at the
time of its utterance. He, Mr. Broderick, is the
youngest Senator, excepting one, on the floor. lie
had served an apprenticeship of five yea '8 at a la
borious occupation ; he was the son of a laborer, and
had only to look around that bnilding to see evidence
m his father's handiwork He, Mr. Broderick, tired
of the struggles and jealousies of his class, went to
California. His election in that State to this Senate
was not the result of accident, for he had not only to
fight against the opposition of his own party, but
against presses subsidized with government money.
Leaving this personal explanation, he turned to his
course in the Ser ate ; he arrayed himself against
Leeompton, he said, because all the allegations of
fraud against that instrument had been fully proved.
.These frauds are known to the President, and yet he
keeps in office the men who committed these frauds.
Ho hoped that the historian of these times would
record this attempt to force this measure, to the petu
lance of a failing intellect, the trembling dotage of
an old man tottering on the verge of the grave.
Recessa till seven o'clock.
EIGHT O'CLocx, P. M.—The avenues to the Senate
are so densely thronged by the multitudes anxiou.3
to hear Mr. Douglas, that the messengers find it im
possible to effect an entrance, and the reporters in
side have been unable to send their despatches to
the telegraph office.

Mr. Garrett made a speech in favor of Lecomrton,
arguing that as long as the Constitution of Kansas

WASEIINGTOtN CITY, March 22.—The Republican
minority of the Select Committee of fifteen, have
stated through Mr. Morrill that they will not publish
their report, as that of the majority has been spread
before the public, and that of Mr. Harris is in type.
They allude to the protracted struggle from which
their appointment arose, and declare that the assump
tion on the part of the majority that the record is
complete, like the refusal to submit the Constitution
of Kansas to a full and fairavote of the people, is a
confession that a thorough investigation would prove
fatal to the extraordinary document. The Presi
dent's message,
the report of the majority and the
report of Joh Calhoun are treated at length. The
pledges of s..bmission on. the part of Nebraska and
Kansas advocates, the President, and so on down to
the Union, ,tc.r,' also claim their a:tention. They say
their wanton violation is denounced as punic faith.
The whole series of alleged frauds is set forth in
chronological order.
The illegality and irregularity of the Lecomptou
Constitution from the beginning are set forth by a
long array of facts, step by step. Not doubting the
sincerity of the President when he says that domes
tic peace will be the happy consequence of the imme
diate admission of Kansas into the Union under the
s Lecompton Constitution, wo are yet constrained to
say that in our deliberate judgments the President
over estimates the docility of the nation, and par
ticularly that of the people of Kansas. Domestic
peace cannot be obtained by trampling down the
rights of any portion of the people. The measure is
not expedient even if it were just; but is clearly
wrong. The idea that Kansas must be admitted in
order to satisfy the States where slavery is recog
nized.; that it is not the fixed purpose to admit no
more slave States into the Union, is even less tol
erabm. It will be timo enough to raise that question
when a slave State offers' itself for admission. To
force a free State into the Union as a slave State
will test the question more keenly than may be de
sirable, and the project should be dismissed as a dan
gerous experiment.

Lk Free Spoken Frenchman.
One of the Paris members of the French
legislative body, Mr. (Maier, has had the
boldness to denounce, in plain but eloquent
language, the Emperor Napoleon's new policy
of reform, which has been proposed to prevent
conspiracies against the Emyeror's life. He
condemned the law for uniting the judicial and
and executive powers ' for not defining the of
fence it meant to punish. No bill had ever been
presented to a Frencloassembly which violated
so many fundamental principles. It was said to
be meant to apply only to Rod Republicans and
crimes of social order, but the speaker asked
when did any one dare to proclaim in public
council that justice might be dispensed with
towards enemies ? It was not to reach these
miserable wretches that the law was proposed,
bat to reach those who dd not conspire, and
who are displeasing to the Government, who
can be reproached with no offense, but may
be considered criminals in expectancy. The
boldness of the language in criticising the
motives of the government is the most remark
able instance of free speech which has been
listened to in the assembly since Louis Napo,
!eon's assumption of power.
