In taking steps to trial of the cases in the District Court here the Legis ture bas but discharged a simple duty to the people of Maryland. There is a question involved in these cases eptirely apart from and far transcending in umport- apee that of the guilt or innocence of the part) under indictment. They may be guilty of all the of- fences which are laid to their charge, and if so they have the State represented in the | vichly merit punishment and are personally entitled to | | therefrom all her deposit, She then prevailed upon ne sympathy; but their punishment in such case should be administered according to law and meted out to them by acompetent tripunal, This is the constitu- tional right not only of the most guilty, citizen of the State and of the United States, all of whom are personally interested in seoing that the bar- riers of the constitution and the safeguards of law are not thrown down and trampled under foot, even for the sake of reaching and punishing the worst of crim- nails. The question which justifies the Legisiature in intervening in these cates and providing for the defence of the parties indicted, is not the question whether these parties intimidated or maltreated colored voters on the 24 of November, but whether the offence, con- ceding it to have been committed, 1* cognizable in a ted- eral court or under £ rw. ‘The indictments have Deen found, as we have stated, under the provisions of the act of Congress of May 31, 1870, known as the ““En- forcement act,” which make it a criminal offence, Pun- ashable by a fine of n Jor not Joss than One month nor m ore than one year, ‘er by both dine and imprisonment’ for any person to prevent, hinder, control or intimidate another from ex- ereising, or in exercising the right of suffrage ‘to whow that right is guaranteed by the fifteenth amend- ment to the constitution,’ by any of the means (cbreats of violence ineluded) enumerated in “the act, Anotber section of the act imposes the same penalty for hindering, delaying, preventing or obstructing, or confederating with others to hinder, &c., any citizen trom doing any act required to be done to quality him 1 vote, or from votung at apy election in any State, Territory, district, county, city, parish, township, weboo! district, munictpality or any other territorial subdivision.

The act in its title dim the specific language of the sections we have quoted, purports to be passed in a of the fifteenth smendment and for the purpose of “enforcing” its pro- visions, Hence the name by which it known, of the “Enforcement act.” amendinent is, in terms, as follows: — Sxcrion 1. The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or idged by the United Blates, or by any State, on account of race, color or previous condition of servitude. Seo. 2 The Coa @ shal) have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation. That is all, Jt isa@ simple restriction or prohibi- tion applying alike to the general government and the State governments, similar in terms Yo those contained in other portions of the con- wutution in regard to granting titles of mobility, passing bills of attainder or ex post facto laws, Moreover, it is & seif-executory amendment, requiring face no special legislation vo enforce i. By virtue of the amendment itself, al) State law: id all Provisions of State constitutions restricting the right vf eoflrage to white persons or denying that right to ‘ny clase ‘on account of race, color or previous condi- tiob of servitude’ became ipso tacto null and void. For the practical denial of that right, in any case, by uuy State officer, under color of any State law, the ag- grieved person had, from that moment, the same right ‘of appeal to the State courts, the same perfect remedy st law, which previously existed in the case af white persons whose right to vote might be denied or inter- Jerod with, The farthest that Congress could £0, up- der the second section of the amendment, was ‘to en- force by appropriate legislation’? the right of all qualified persone to vote at federal elections Whore the nght to ‘vote is dorived!rom the federal constitution itself, as in the case of elections for representatives in Congress or electors for President and Vice President the United States, then Congress may property intervene to guara the purity and freedom ot those elections ‘This it mighs do independently of the Fifteenth amend- ment. When, however, under color of that amend- 1, Congress undertakes to convert offences which are such under the State law, and properly cognizable im the State courts, into offences against the United Btates, and cognizable in the Federal courts, it steps outside of the limits of the constitunen and of the amendment itself. There 1s po law of Maryland de- ying or abridging the right of any citizen to vote “on account of race, color or previous condition of servi- tude,” and if there were it would be null and void. So far as Maryland is concerned the amendment {s com- phed with, is executed and bas spent its force.

Raymond lectured last night in the Cooper Institute on the interesting subject of the “Territorial History of the United States.” As is usual in the Cooper Union popular series of free lec- tures for the people, the great hall was crowded to the doors by a very intelligent and attentive audience. The platform was occupied by Mr. Peter Cooper, Dr, Zacus and several others. Profestor Raymond was in- troduced amid great applause by Mr. Cooper.

THE MASTERSON A FEARFUL AFFRAY. BOATMEN BUTCHER EACH OTHER WITH ENIVES IN JERSEY. A terrible affray occurred jast evening about ten o'clock in Jersey City. Two cana! poatmen, named Francis Ford and John Heaney, had sup- per in «restaurant on Newark avenue, near Warren street. After leaving they proceeded to an oyster kaloon on Washington street, near Essex, where, after taking oysters, they drank freely. A dispute then arose about the payment for the drinks and the proprietor was obliged to eject them. When | they reached the sidewalk the men clinched, and Ford, who had drawn a knife, plunged it twice into Heaney’s back apd once into bis arm. Heaney cried out and staggered back, at the same time drawing a knife, which he buried in the right temple, side and left leg of Ford in rapid succession, The men then closed and butch- ered each other till they fell fainting and powerless to the ground, which was soon covered with blood. An alarm was given, and when the police arrived it was supposed that both men were dead. Ford presented a terrible spectacle, his face streaming with blood, which ran down his bands from the wounds in his arms Heaney still clutched the knife convul- sively. and witl the little strength left bim he struggied to deal his adversary another blow. He was raised to his feet, but was unable to stand from the loss of blood. Both men wore then conveyed to the Charity Hospital, where they received prompt medical attendance, but from the deadly character of their’ wounds there is but a faint hope of their recovery. The ‘weapons used were pocket knives, Mga be sign 4 alarge Diade.

Immediately after the arrest of the parties they were placed in separate celis—the elder brother, Willtam, being age to College Point, and, ¢onse- quently, having no s of knowing to what the younger had vastidied Yesterday morning, vpon arraignment, he was requested to tell what be knew in regard to the fires, when flatly contradicted the statement previously made vy his brother. They were then both fully committed to await the action of tbe Grand Jury. ‘Albertson and his two sone have a bad reputation, and suspicion attached to them after the Qrst fire at the Ed- mund Willets place. The neighbors, however, hesitated to take any proceedings against them, fearful ‘that their barns might also be set on fre. Fortunately District Attorney Downing overheard a conversation between two gentlemen on the cars in which this suspicion wi indicated, and learning from them the names ot 5 pected persons, detailed Officers Schmidt, Smith and Roe to arrest them, and they were taken into custody the same day. There appears to be no doubt of ‘hair guilt, althoogs the elder Albertson stoutly de- nies jt, and one or two white persons who take an in- terest in the case propose to provide counsel for their defence. If the old man is sufficiently recovered bis examination will take pian on the 10th of March, but there is no doubt that the District Attorney will pro- cure the indictment of all three at the next sitting of ‘the Grand Jury, early hext month.

To raz Epitor or rns Henarp:— In view of the many distorted and untrue reports going the rounds of the press in regard to the unhappy accident here Wednesday evening, the 9th inst., we have deemed it advisable to ask you to insert the accompany- ing account, which, coming as it does from an official source, may be relied on as strictly trae. On Wednes- day evening the boys had been detained somewhat later than usual at prayers by a brief address from the principal, in reference to the revival at Princeton, so that it was nearly half-past eight o'clock by the time they reached their rooms. On doing so Harry M, Hunter, of Newark, took from the drawer of the bureau a small pistol, ‘Eclipse’ make, single barrelled, carrying & %2-100 cartridge, belonging to his room- male, 4. P.
