I concur in thinking that the Legisla ture has no right to require a residence of ninety days in the city of Wilmington, as a Qualification of voters in a city election.' I Much less has it a right to require such a length of residence on the same foe.

I also agree with the- majority-of the Courlin its view of that part ol the act wdoh requites Voters, before being registered, and also if challenged, (before Wtugj i to .prove their. qualifications by, witnesses personally kitvwn to the registrar and pv&hbldcrsj!

No doubt the Legislature may enacf general laws admitting or disqualifying certain classes of witnesses, but its power cannot be unlimited in this respect I conceive it has no right to .enact jjile of evidence for a particular case; or to impose such qualifi cations oq witnesses as practically leave the admission of the evidence to the arbitrary opiaion of the judge, .without liability to review; or to make the competency of wit nesses in a particular class of cases depend ent on a mere accident, and independent of any rule professing- even "to be founded in reasons .What .could.i besaid for a law which made: the competency of. a witness in all cases, or in any - particular class of pasSe ejtampicf op trials $4r tnurdeX'to depend upon c the " lTrelevanVTiccidelit that th wns was er was no venommi mown' to the Judge or jury,' and which left it in 1 the discretion bf the juage to admit or deny his persona acquaintance, according tb his capricefj-vs.ij-v, x' t,! 1 -v : The injustice1 and' folly of sucb' alaw wfluld.:' bf W, gtoss that! its" validity would not find an advocalei. xet that u a part of the act' we are cbnsiderlpg; The right to vole is: rprbperry',,, and no. man 'can' be de prived; of it iVbnt uby.tfieilAW ef jihe'land' (Bill of Rights, s. 47). and the arbttrarf will of a tegistrar orbf "a Jud6te; is n6t ;lavf;of the land," in the, weU i e Wed cleaning of, the BiU Of Rights. .wra .W mAi,y 'l The requirement that the witnesses to the quaM6,a';irfenal.l fjoiially known to the registrar, ufs a new, and most tmreasonaible addition to the' qualifications &rvbtejkwhh and in my opinioa is: clearjy v.beyondj ths , power of tlie Legislatum' ' ; Vf in T-ue uonsmmtion gives ione'jjegisiaiure legislative power includes as part tlie power to creap$ ana regulate municipal cferM TIP! f f f ;uere shall ; be, tne manner or electing them, (subjerti-Of- Oourse til 'ttByionlitu tional pi V visions which may be,applicable,V their powers, :&c.',..

For my part I find no indication of any such general in lenad;cf rtaioly of 'nona. winch can be "applied to cities and townsby any admit ted rules of reasoning. Art. II; sec. 6, says that the House of Representatives shall be composed; of one hundred and twenty representatives, to be elected by the counties respectively, accord ing to their.population, and each county shall have at leAstn representative, although it may not contain the requisite ratio of representation. Section 7 provides how the ratio of repre sentation shall be ascertained, and how fractions shall be carried over, with the yik)f jre4uctatbmethifagjlike an ap proximation of representation to'population. These provisions are merely directory They look only to the existing or some simi lar division of the State into counties. It is left open to the Legislature to create new counties, as it has repeatedly done, without any objection to its constitutional power to hdo so. y For aught that I see ja-thesConsti hundred and twenty counties of unequal area, population and taxable property, when Leach would be entitled to one representative the House. I think Ibis instance, with- out going farther, is sufficient to show that mere is no general controlling intent in the Constitution restraining the Legislature from an unequal distribution of political POWer. V r Jhat this power may, be abused for parti-. sao ends, there can be no doubt. It is in different ttfme whether in this case it has been abused or not This Court I has au thority to repress an usurpation of legislative- power, out not to correct a mere abuse pfjt.- For that, the Legislature is responsi ble to the people alone.i--i-,;s-):.., I'i It is proper, here .to notice a position taken, lit argument by the learned .counsel for the plaimfT, -' which might seem to 'find, some countenance in the generalty of my'e'xpres Si4u4 o the legtslariye power V create, or ganize, and regulate municipal corporations.
