Otis answer is in substance as follows : .„ • WASHINGTON, D. C.,'March 301870. Accept my thanks for the invitation tendered on behalf of the colored peo ple Of Cincinnati to atteuL the celebra tion. My duties will notr,permit me to be present except by qual will and .wishes. Almost a quarter of a eentury has pared, since some of you probably heard me declare (May, 1845) that all "legal distinctions between individuals of the same cotintry, founded on- any such circumstances as origin and the like, are hostile to the genitia of our in stitutions, and incompatible \with- the true theory of American lilehtv ; that true Democracy makes no inquiry about the color of the skin, or the place of na . tivlty, or any other'similar circumstan ces or condition ; and that the- exclu sion of the colored people as a 1)04 from the elective franchise is con,,pat ible with true Demeetatie principlo. I congratulate you that these prineiNes, have been at length made a part of tits supreme law of the land. Many, tio doubt, would have been glad, as I should ha've been, if the great Work consum mated by the ratification of the fitteefith Amendment could have been accom plished, through the States, by the amendment athe State Constitutions; but the delays and uncertainties inse parable from that mode of proceeding seemed to necessitate tlie course actually adopted._ Nor does the amendment. .impair , the real rights of any State. It leaves the whole regulation of suffrage to the people of each State, subject only to the fundamental law that the right of no citizen to vote shall lie denied or abridged on account of . race, color, or previous condition of t-erVittlile. It is to be hoped that each State will so eon form its Constitution and lawn to this fundamental law that no occasion may be given for legislation liv Congitss. But the best vindication of the wisdiim as well as the justice of the • A ?MlMl ment must be found in the confine( of the-large class of riliZeliS A% imili Son represent. On the oecasion to which I had referred; I Ventured to say that.l he best way to insure the peaceful_ dwell ing together of the ditferent raves is the cordial reciprocation of b.eliellb., iilid not the mutual intlietion of injuries. I cannot now , give you better eounsel than I offered (lien. "(lo forward, having perfect faith in your own man hood, in Ciod's providence, adding to your faith virtue, and to virtue, knowl edge; and to.knowledge,pationee ; and to patience temperance; and twtent perance, brotherly kindness, aMI to brotherly kindness, charity." Ail by not signalize your rejoicings in _the rights secured under' the Vifteenth Amendment by urging upon Congress the prompt removal of all political dis abilities imposed upon tuff fellow-eiti zens 'by the Fourteenth' Amendment, so that through Universal Suffrage and liniv l ersal Amnesty, peace, good-will and prosperity may he estahle-bed throfighout our country ': Every geed I man must rejoice in the progres.wilielt 1 the colored citizens of the United States have made in education, in religions culture, and in the genet al inquove ment of their condition. Every good man must earnestly desire tht . lir con tinued and accelerated grogres in the edit() direction; all public anii , private interests will he promoted irk It, and it will insure at no distant day le cord ail recognition of their rights, fr fix those of their fellow-eitizens, Who had most eihnestly opposed them. No man can new be found who would restore slave ry. Afw years hence, if the colored men are ise, it will be impossible toa, iti v find - m n who will avow himself in fteVor of denying or abridgingyour right to vote. • S. I'. CitAst•:. THE AMENDMENT.

George F. McFairland Superintendent Of the Soldiers' OrphanS' Department for three years, dating, from April 29, 1870. He was rejected by the Senate-- 10 to 17. The National Debt was reduced $3,- 933,014 39 in January; $0,484,81 - 1 25 in February ; and $5,70 . 6,349 43 in March; making a total reduction during the first three months of the present year, of $15,184,825 07. , After a long, wearisome c ontest for a seat in our State Senate, Watt, the sit ting member, was finally awarded the place. He Is a Republican. We have not kept, pace with the proceedings in this case, and know nothing of the mer its. Much excitement prevailed in Har risburg over the final argument before the Committee. Several of the ablest advocates in the State were engaged iu the case, and the expenses - to the par ties must have consumed many times the amount of pay the successful can didate will receive. The result, owing to the close balance in the Senate, was of very great political importlnce, the Republicans only having a working majority at the best. hon. Elleni W. Schofiedid introduced a hill in the House of Representatives, at Washington, on the sth instant, to equalize the salaries of the Judges of the United States District Courts in this State. At present, Judge M'Can dless, of the Western District, receives but $4,000 a -year, whicl is $l,OOO less than the salary of Judge Cadwalader, In the-Eastern District. Judge M'Candless is one of the ablest Judges of the land, , a sterling patriot throughout the late war, and a 'gentle man who dignifies and adorns his high office. The business in his district now far exceeds that in the Eastern District.; and he has to bold Courts in Pittsburg, Erie and Williamsport, while - Judge Cadwalader sits in Philadelphia only. The accelerating growth of Western Pennsylvania; and the admiralty eases arising on Jake Eric,, together with the multiplicity of 'llevenue'cases, will give him no rest in future. He held Court eleven months during the past year.— We hope the bill may, promptly become • . a law. The tTnit.4l States Marshal' for the Westrn` District of Pennsylvania is making preparations to take tb'e census. The work will begin the first of June, and must be completed by the 15th of August. It involves a great deal of la bor and patient inquiry. Our county will probably be divided into four districts : the eastern tier for ming one; the towns on the Tiogit, in cluding Lawrenceville and Farming ton, another; I,Vellsbefo and vicinity anothek ; ( end the Cowanesque and Pine. Creek townships the fourth. Of course these subdivisions may be varied ; but they are the' most natural and practica ble that can be made ; and this designa tion is sufficient to give notice to those who desire to become applicants for these places. - Of course the resident Deputy Mar shal will be expdlted to have charge of the district in which he resides. Per sons applying must he residents of 'the district which they desire to take.' \The Marshal makes competency the first, re quisite. Norio but persons well quali fied need apply. Send a specimen of handwriting, vith such testionials of character and' fitness as may be thought best. : . The oflite is laborious, and not over remunertvAve. -Every citizen is inter ested in having the work accurately and faithfully done; and no ono should recommetSd any person for this place by reason of _ids political standing merely. We have enough Young linen who are entirely competent, and,-krho need the help. This system or signing every man's recommendation who k t comes along, merely because he is a gelid fel low, is a nnisauce In all eases ; and in thht, it is an outrage upon the commu nity. Let us have such 'men as will perform the work thoroughly, that our county may be placed where she belongs in the census of 1870. Address - Alexander Murdoch, U. S Marshal, Pittsburg, Pa. Uovernor G i ary seems to have a pas sion for vetoes, particularly in matters relating to the interests Of the people in the undeveloped portions of the State. After both Houses had almost unani mously passed a bill to repeal "an ,act relative to the payment of taxes on un settled lands, approved Nov. lb, 1869," the Governor returned it without his signature. This is the subjeet to whkh reference was made some weeks ago_ in w the Agitator. The law repealedwas retroactive, and prohibited the intro dUction-of any parol evidence of pay ment of taxes. Even the receipts, ta ken in the usual form, according teens tom immemorial, could not be given in evidence. Neither could the record it ' self, but only certified copies thereof.— Such a law could hay? been intended for no °tit& purpose than to cheat the oWners of' unseat6d lands out of their tales, by changing, as it did change, the law of evidence, in such manner as to , put it beyond the power of such owners, in many cases, - to procure evidence by which to render their titlep secure. it \vas special legislation of tile worst form.. one of the first rules in the law of evidence, that the best evidence Must be produced; but we shave never sup posed any sovereign power would I grossly unjust in its requirements, as to demand an\ i4ipossibility. The statute of frauds requires couve to be in writing; yet, yances of land parol evidence of title may he given in certain cases,. where, to reject it, would ho inequita ble; and although the law requires that deeds of lands shall he in writing, yet what should wo say of ,the justice of \ that State which should'' enact, a law, oprobibiting nit introduction of evi dence of. the} contents of such deeds, when lost or destroyed? Yet this law forbids the admission of pares evidence in any ease.' We are glad to say that the bill was promptly passed, the Governor's veto notwithstanding. Mr. Niles warmly supported the measure; and we are un der obligation's to Itir. B i tickalew for his 'advocacy in the Senate. RohertiOilchrist, Attorney Uenerol . of the State of New Jersey, in answer to a question Icy the Mayor of Prince ton, asking whether negroes had aright to vote at the city election, then to no . held - xin the 4th int4ttlititonde reply us folloWs The Fifteenth A ibentiluint wakes t aid o much of out-State 1 onstitution ns on account 'of color denies the right of any citizen of the U. States to vote. The Thirteenth Atuentlinent wade all the colored people who were before •in slavery, free.. TrArt free colored native was not a citizen before, the text of the Fourteenth Amendment makes him so. As a practical, present question of the hour, the eight of the colored wan to vote, if he is oth erwise qualified, should be treated as settled iu his favor. 'Mr. Gilchrist is a Democrat, who be lieves that " uconstitutional force was the means of p ocuring the ratification of the! amend 'ent," yet he is frank enough to admit the binding obligation of the new law 'of suffrage. He leaves a loop hole to crawl out of, however, when lie: intimates that " it may finally be held by all the branches of the gov ernment never to have been in force." It would be well now to have our State Constitutions modified *so as to conform to the new order of things; but we de not admit the necessity of any such alteration. If indeed such amendment of the State Constitutions were necessary, to secure the negro in his right to exercise the franchise, then the amendment of the United states Constitution amounts to nothing. The Constitution of the United States, and the laws passed in pursuance thereof, " shall be the supreme law of the land ; and the Judges in every State shall be bound thereby, anything in the Consti tution or laws of any State to the con trary notwithstanding." Such are the words of the text itself; and it would seem . useless to make any argument to strengthen them. When any provision antagonistic to any clause in a State Constitution is adopted as a part of the United States Constitution, ipso facto all such antagonistic terms are rendered inoperative and void. Were it neces sary for each State to amend its own . Constitution so as to make it conform to the change, then the States which re fuLsed their assent to tlie: ratification of tide amendment, could prevent its en foeementbey within their own limits, b e y re using to make such change. That is absurd, in view of the nature of ot4: government. It is the worst form of State sovereignty, destructive of the unity of the general government itself. No : when the Fifteenth Amendment became a part of ,the Constitution of the United States, all citizens otherwise qualified, became equally entitled to the franchise, without regard to color, or the terms of the lawS and Constitution of the State wherein they resided. VETO. We are not disposed to waste many words nor much space on the subject of the late veto of the Pine Creek railroad hilf ; but wo cannot understand bow so many papers, which before the Iresult was known, and when it was under stood that it would become a law, fa vored the measure, are now either si lent or giving in their adhesion to the views of the Governor. We find no fault with any one for honest and con ..,l"tont, .... vp .s..m.eL to tals*legislation : What we complain of, is that prevari cation and deceptioln which created among our people a high hope to be dashed suddenly to the ground. Breach of promise is the remedy, and the dam ages must be compensated or atonement made; We cannot tamely submit to such humiliation. We can understand hoiv thci f citizens of Bradford, of Lan caster, and many other counties which -have received a surfeit of pap from the policy of State encouragement to public improvements, can look upon this bill as an inipol4lo Measure, and 9.n con ceive holy ,),,licy might even be led so far as to call it s '! a scheme to plunder the State Treasury." But we are unable to understand why the veto should, in their minds, be so fruitful and suggest ive of reasons why the bill should not now have been submitted to the Legis lature at all, since, now that it in vetoed, iLhas all along been such a .villainous fraud. If the bill is wiling, it was as much wrong before as since the veto.— We look upon a veto as the mere refu sal-of an Executive to assent to a law submitted for his approval. There is, to our minds, no mysterious, oracular power in it ;—it is good for what it reads upon its face, only. There is no pecu liar 'Virtue in it for us. We do not see in it eithebe power of, or behind the throne ; a d if we were to see both, we think the would fail to change the ,t. color of this transaction in our mind. We are not pleased with the mode of legislation which has grown into a cus tom in our State; we have recently giv en our views condemning the whole system of hasty and ill-considered leg islation ; and we hoped when this mea sure came before the Legislature, that it would be fully discussed, and that the bill would be • ample in all its provisions to secure the in.fprests of the State.-:-- These were matters of detail, merely.— We have sutlained the measure, believ ing that no loss or damage could accrue to the State, under its provisions. We see no reason to change our views upon this subject. The minor constitutional objections raised by the Governor could be provided against : the important one, relating to the powers of the Legisla ture over the securities in the Sinking FtMd, we consider settled by the Su prelim Court; and it matters not how fine a distiriction is made by that Court, in coming to its conclusion. It must stand by the decided cases. The cor rectness of the decision is not a matter for argument. That question had its day in Court. . We do not favor the policy of State appropriations for local purposes; but we think the Commonwealth may well stair t in_the relation of next friend to all its needy children, and that it will not suilbr through fostering their.,nter. eats by every means of encouragement which it can afford without substantial loss. We favor no raid upon" the Trea sury from any section ; and We ask no alms for Our own : we do believe in liberal encouragementeven by the State.. \V lave been aliens to the Common wealth, by reason of her mountain ran ges shutting tis off, and making ug trib utary to oar great rival, the Empire Elate. We have a State pride ; we wish to encourage her prosperity by every means within our reach ; we believe this line of railroad would add more to her material wealth within the next •decade, than any other of the same ex:" tent yvithin her limits. What would. our State be to-day without her great: lines of railway? It is 16 answer to the question of expediently to say:— Leave it to private enterprise. Private enterprise will yet build tke road ; but before it shall do so, the Shtte_tnay lose, by its prospective revenues front this great work alone, enough tk) make good the $6,000,000, even were It not secured to be paid the State. Beton) this road is built by private enterprise, unaided, the State's opportunity may be lost. Such are the honest convictions of our people; and it will not do for the Republican party to treat these, feelings wit it contempt. Majorities are good thins on the day of eleetion. Mr. Strang never said anything more to the purpose, perhaps, than the following on the adjournment of the Legislature: Gentlemen of tho House of Representatives: I have prepared no speech to deliver upon this occasion, and if I had I could not now undertake to deliver it to you. Without wishing to dud any fault with the action of any individual con nected with this Assembly, I may be pardoned, perhaps, for the remarks that in addition to the sorrow I would naturally feel on an occasion like this, Igo from hero to bear to my people, whoM I have endeavored for years to serve faithfully and well, news of the result of the action of i a co-ordinate branch of this Government, which will carry mourning and despair into every household in my district. We consider the whole course of this matter in a manner inexplicable. All sorts of reports are afloat; but the veto is a• fact, and it is now useless to argue or recriminate. A girl only four years of age, resid ing with her parents in Marion, Va., has a moustache and whiskers, the hair upon the forehead extending to the eye brows, and a very heavy head of htiir, exceedingly black, extending below the shoulders. The child is quite sprightly and well formed. The arms. shoulders and back are covered with soft, downy hair. I . tl.ll I till;" ' I " -(0 • The report that Brig.-Gen. Pope would be sent to San Francisco to take charge of the Department of the Pacific made vacant by the death of Major-Gen. Thomas, is erroneous. Brig-Gen. Ord is already in that Department, but he is stationed in Arizonia, and the Department proper iscarried on by A. A. General Whipple at headquarters in San Francisco. There will be no Brigadier- General sent there; either Major-Gen. Meade or Major-Gen. Schotieldvill be orderedithere in a few days. Gen. Meade is statianed at Philadelphia and is well satisfied, with his duties. Gen. Scho field commands at St. Louis. He has prepared a plan for the Indian Summer Campaign; but as Lieut.-Gen. Sherman is in St. Louis and Major-Gen. Scho field comes under his direct orders, the probabilities are that the latter will car ry out the campaign. If Gen. Schofield is transferred to the Pacific it is under, stood that the President has determin ed to wait until the Army bill is dispos ed of befo re promoting any one to the rank of Major-General, made vacant by the death of Gen. Thomas.— Tribune. BOUNTY CLAIMS. • Some misunderstanding having aris en In regard to the recent decision of the Supreme Court concerning bounties, we give below the decision itself and the definition of the same announced by the Second Auditor: The United.,States agt.

Mr. Justice Swayne delivered the opinion of the , i Court, holding substantially that the prool mo tion of the President and the general orde s of tho War Department stipulating to pay $lO , for each.volunteer, followed by the enlistment o ithe claimant, constituted a valid contract betufeen the Government and tho claimant, upon which he was entitled to the bounty, he_ having been hen- . orably discharged, even though he did not serve , two years, nor was discharged for wounds.
