THE LA — PRESIDENT JOHNSON TO THE SENATE. £1 TELEGRAPH TO THE N. Y. TRIBUNE. WASHINGTON, Monday, Jan. The following Veto Messago has been communicated ¢o Congress by the President of the United States: 20 the Senate of the Uniled States: I return to the Senate, in which House it originated, 8 il entitled “ An Act to admit the State of Colorado into the Union,” to which I eannot, consistently with wy scuse of duty, give my approval. With]the exception of an additional section, containing new provislons, it is sub- stantially the same as the bill of @ similar title passe d by Congress during the last seesion, submitted to the Presi- dent for his approval, returned wiih the objections contained in a message bearing date the 15th of May lnst, and yet swaiting the reconsideration of the Bemate. A second DIl having in view the same purpose, has now passed both Houses of Con- gross and been presented for my signature. Having again cazetully considered the subject, I have been unable to porceive any reason for clavging the opiuions which Diave already been communicated to Congress. 1 find, on the contrary, there are many ohjections to the proposed Jogislation of which I was not at that time aware, and that, while several of those which I then assigned have 1n the interval gained in strength, yet others have been cteated by the altered character of the measure now sub- mitted. The Constitution under which this State Govern- ment is proposed to be formed very properly contains & provision that all laws in force at the time of its adoption and the admission of the State into the Union shall con- tmue as if the Constitution had not been adopted. Among thoso laws is one absolutcly prohibitiug negroes and mulattoes from the right te sit as jurors. This bill was vetoed by the Governor of the Territory, who held that, Dy the laws of the United States, negroes and mulattoes are citizens and subject to the duties as well as entitled €0 the rights of citizenship. The bill, however, was passed, the objections of the Governor to the contrary notwithstanding, and is now a law of the Territory; yet in the bill now before me by which it is proposed to admit the Terntory, as a State, 1t 18 provided that there shall be no denial of the elective fran- chise, or any other rights any person, by Toason of race or color, excepting Indians not taxed. The ncongruity thus exhibited between the legisl Congress and t taken in e with the protest ag n of the State here- inafler veferred to, would seem clearly to indicate the injustice of the p actment. 1t might, indeed, be a subject of grave inqu ry, and doubt- Jess will result in such inquiry, if this bill become a law, whether it does not uttem exercise n power not conferred upon Congress by deral Constitution. That instrument simply declares that Cong may admit new States into thie Union. It nowhere says that Congress may make new States for the purpose of admit ting them into the Union or for any other purpose, and et this bill is as clear an attempt fo make the institu- fons as any in which the people themselves could engage. In view of this action of Congress, the House of Repre- sentatives of the Territory have earnestly protested a&lna( Dbeing forced into the Union without first Laving the question submitted to the peo) Nothing could be miore reasonable than the position which they thus assume; and it certainly cannot be the purpose of Con- &ress to force upon a community, aganst their will, a government which they do ne ieve themselves pable of sustaining. The following is a copy of the p alluded to as officially transmitted to u “ Whereas, 1t is announced in the public prints that it 1s the intention of Congress to adiit Colorado as u State the Union; therefore, “ Resolved, By the House of Representatives of this orritory that, representing as we do, the last und only jogal expression of public opinfon on this question, we sarnestly protest a law gdmitting the State without first having the question submitied to o vote of the people for the rcasons: First, that we have 8 right to a voice in the selection of the character of our overnment; second, that we have not a sufficient popu- jation to support the expenses of a State Government. ‘or these reasons we trust that Congress will ot force ugon us a government ‘pon_information which I considered reliable, T as- sumed in my message of the 15th of May last that the ppulation of Colorado was not more thai 50,000, aud ex- Ew«: the opinion that this number was entircly too small either to assume the responsibility or to enjoy the privi of a State, It appearsthat previcns to that ime the Legislature, with a view to ascertain the exact condition of the Territory, had passed a law authorizing a census of the population to be taken. The law made 1 the duty of the assessors in the several counties to take the census in eommection with the an and, in order to secure a correct the population, allowed them a tion for the service, by paying then bame returned; and added t of office, an oath to perform this duty with fidelity. From the accompanying offl report, it appx that returns have been received from the 15ontof 18 counties into which the State is divided, and their population amounts In the aggregate to 24,909; the three remaining counties are estimated to contain 2,000, making a total population 0f 27,900. This census was taken in the Summer scason, when it 18 claimed the population is mueh larger thau at auy other period, as in the Avtumn miners in Targe num- bers leave their work and return to the East witli the sults of their Summer enterprise. The population, it will be observed, i8 but shghtly in excess of ouncfifth of the number req » ntation for a &l £ 8, that nuw est against our will e e [ r‘u-n, in the right of representation, givin o the people of Colorade, not only this fhe House of Representative a uate, where the other Slate represented by millions, Vith, perhaps, a sing L no such inequality as this hias ever before been attempied. T know that 1t is elaimed that the population of the different States at th time of their admission has varied at ditferent periods, but £t has not varied much more than the population of each decade, and the corresponding basis of representation for the different periods. The obvious intent of the Constitu- tion was that no State should be admitted with a less pop- ulation than the rytio of representation at the time l"u]» ‘The limitati 1 the first the Consti ach State tfestly equality in the 1 in the second section ition dec designed to protect the States which originally cc the Union from being deprived, in the cvent of a pulation, of a voice in the popular Congress, and W never intended as a to force & new State futo the Union w sentative population far belo at whic time bp required of sister wembers of the A'bis bill, in view of t Which declares that the * atiyes shall fot exceed one for every 50,000, st a violation of the spirit if not of the Jétter of tho Constitution.

Obviously the result of sectional sty wwould do well to regard it as a warning of evil rather than as an exawplo for fmitation, and 1 thiuk candid men of all parties will agree that the Inspiring cause of this wholcsome principls of restruint is to be found ina vain attempt to b ce the antagonisims which refused to be reconciled, except through the blood, arbitrament of arms. The plain facts of onr history will test that the great and leading States adiuitted since 1845, viz.. lowa, W Minnesota, and Kansas, including Texas, itted that have all come with an ample population for one rey sentative, and some of them with nearly or quite enough for two.

The Germans offered, as usnal, the most generous and sterling repertoire, and this with a wellmeant effort which contrasts reproachfully with discord behind the scenes and poverty of management—too frequent accom- paniments of the German fortunes in competitive wars of music. After so brilliant a production as that of Offenbach’s Orpheus, it is a wonder that the French Opera Comi with jits wine-like spirit, and half-inspited _artificiality—should have so sud- denly bubbled out. We Liad reason to expcet more from both these schools of music; study and enthu- siasm from the one, spite of mediocre ~ singers, ane wit and gaiety from the other. Asit is, these more experienced ~ and characteristic operas have gone out of business for the time being. and English opera, ~with its able-bodied commonplaces, rules as it never ruled before, The ** Rose of Castile,” as given last night at the Olympic Theater, is almost a nn\'eltfl, It is one of Balfe’s later works, as may perhaps be judged from its choruses and instrumentation. These show a confirmed style and considerable vigor. The lot of the opera may be suggested in few words, 'he Queen or “Rose” of Castile takes the disguisc of nlpeunnt girl, tomeet her royal fiancé, Don Sebastian of Portugal, who, in the character of a muleteer, seeks to discover his mistress without himself being known. Incidentally he overhears a conspiracy against the throne, and this piece of news lendsinterest to his encounter with the royal peasant-girl. Certain trai- whr nobles, \v:‘th Don x't'l’mt g; their hca]d. uppea'l‘ gn the scene, and propose that the supposed peasant, reason of her great resemblance to the Queen, shall laced on the throne, while the trne Queen is car- ried away to a convent, the conspirators meanwhile making their own terms with the impostor. The royal muletcer reénters in time to confound the conspirators, and, of course, marries the Queen, The plot is somewhat absurd, but it affords excellent situations for the music. The libretto contains, of course, the usual sentimental word-rations for popu- lar composers—son; about wine, castanets, memory, convent lmlfi, gricf, and so forth. Therc is no ambition in the composer to express more than a yllmlm- and conventional sentimentality in his melody, and the libretto is, of course, adapted to this fact. There is nothing in the opera which can Iay claim to very high regnnl in a melodic respect ; but it is to the cowmposer’s credit that his con music is so ably sustained, ~While his airs and ballads are evidently poor in invention, a3 com- ared with the morccaus of * The Bohemian Girl,” his ow trios and quartets are strikingly well-managed. The solo musie, with the exception of perhaps a bari- tone passage, does not impress us 48 new or very re- markable, and yet we must regard the work, nfimn the whole, as a success. This success is altogether due to its well worked duets, trios, guartets, and finales —the latter especially. Thongh littlo of Balfe’s con- certed musie approaches real breadth of character or depth of invention, the composer must credited with eclectic talent and dramatie sense. or and Flotow have been his operatic models, resembles either of these except occa- sionally intheir forms of movement. The music of Balfo is much his own, qualified hf the French opera, the English concert room and the Irish melodies. 'We make particular mention of the Scherzo in the first act as something unnsual to English operatic writing —a brilliant piece of vocal difficulty, and interesting for that reason and no more, The “trio and quartet in the same act, and the langhing trio in the second, are among the best compositions of Balfe. Further, wo have only to say that with Miss Richings, Mr. Campbell, Mr. Castle, and Miss Zelda Harrison, :‘l I’:u:-lly drilled chorus, the opera is creditably ren- ered. —Three songs of more than usnal merit, by Mr Henry C. Watson, have been issued by Beer & Schirmer. Mr. Watson is frequently his own poet as well as composer, as in the best and sweetest of these songs, * The Roving, Restless Streamlet.” Verse and music are simply and gracefully wedded in the pretty fancy of this song, and flow on together impid] Moro elaborate and only less fresh and complete as an idea is Mr. Watson's expressive music to Miss Muloch's suggestive words—“The Happy Tears Down-falling.”” We Jike less than either of these interesting songs the serenade, *“Thine Eyes, my Love,” the motive of which is comparatively commonplace. g ‘The samo firm publish a romance by A. Guerreia, in the Italian style, entitled “He Never Loved Me.” It expresses too languid a pathos, but has decided telody and fervor which will recommend it to tastes, The poem by Mr. Millard is a true example of the common way of manufacturing wooden-leg, verses to hobble through music. For instance : He often told me that if T loved him He'd dare the worst fate of things terrestrial, And that the love-glance seen through my smiling Was the reflection of Heaven oclestiall Was ever commonplace thought, in commonplace words, stilted out in such intolerable meter ! —During his season in March, Mr. Max Maretzek, it is understood, will produce & number of new operas, with such vavieties as Don Bucefalo and ampa. 1t is gossipped operatically that a new com- ¢ of artists is being formed under a new manager ; that the German opera_is not yet dead, and that the French will resnme. lmrnrmng as musical events will be the production of Verdi's now work, Don Carlos, and Gounod’s Romeo and Juliet, during the London scason.
