UNITED STATES SESATOR.
The Free Press thiuks our construction of tbe
SOth section of the Constitution, of the State, cr
roneous. Very well so be It.
If tbe Senator ii a r.watnro f the Federal
Constitution, and dependent for his existence' and
power upon the force of lhat instrument alono,
then it the necessity for an appointment by Gov.
-
Kkid mdtrtd absolute, by the federal tonstitvtion
Itself wa mean alstiut as a rfy, 'tbongh not as :
A rrq)tilf(jr the Constitution says the Exfp-
ative may mako, sc. The following are the words.-
; . . and if vacancies happen, by resig-
" nation or otherwise, during the recess of the
' legislature or any State, the trxecuiire thereon
' may make- temporary appointments until the
' then fill SUCU Vacancies." ; s .
W'Uh these words of the Constitution before
Ihem, tha members of our legislature must have
Intended one of two thlng.r 1st. That the Gov-
ernor should appoint the Senator In view of the
provisions above cited, or else; , 2d. They Intend.-
edtecommitapubltg wrong by having no Sena-
tor, for the time being, under the Influence of cav-
it about the word "olkerwix."
We presume all the lawyers In the State will fell
ns that it la a fundamental principle of law that
Do party are to be permitted to take advantage of
. their own wrong, wheu a fair construction of Ian-
ffuage may prevent It ' '
,The words "kit office" are not nsod in the Fed-
ml Conslltnttofr. In application to the vacancy
and If they were the phrase would boa nomcncla-
t ure. not affuctiug the, principle . of the question,
,The office btilonga tol the Constitution and the
country, and not to him, the Senator. He is but
the executor of, its duticiJUlt la not Aij office that
Is vacant, but tht office. j t
If Civernor Bud falls to appoint; ho 'ought to
' be hutcached for a neglect of duly, by which the
public (utereat is put io'joopardy.'. It is not be
cause we expect ho will appoint a Senator to suit
ns, that we urge this matter for ho will not se
lect Kerr tior GiuiuM.bbth of whom would make
good fienator-but we press tho "tmlject as a
public duty, 1 The power to confer the'appoint
meut by Ihe Executive, after the 4th of March'
next, is as jilain and definite as any ever given or
received by official or constitucucv.

THE NORTHERN PHILANTHROPISTS.
The 'Schooner Advance, which was captured
at Port Praya, (the Azore Islands) by the United
States sloop of war German town, was manned
with a crew of free blacks, and fitted in the port
of New York. This vessel was urcuarod for a
cruise on the coast of Guinea, w ith the implements
and appliances necessary to secure a cargo of
slaves for tho Brazilian or Cuban market. We
suppose the slavo trade in aanctided when carried

THE BROADW' RAILROAD (IN NEW YORK.)
Tho Board of Aldermen of the city of New
York on Wednesday night adhered to their former
action, and adopted the report for tho establish
ment of Uie EroacUay' Railroad, notwitbstand
Ing4h(Tveio of the Mayor. Thev also adonted a
ireamblc and resolution disapproving the course
of Judge Campbell In granting an injunction re
straining them from proceeding in the matter.
These doings have caused a good deal of excite
ment in New York. Tbe Municipal maintains
that the Judiciary had no power to enjoin its leg
islative proceedings, while the cornplaiqants con
tend that the Corporation are about ojakinga
contract at war with the public interests, which,
if made, will bo attended with irreparable dam
age, and therefore it is a ministerial and not a
legislative act, rendering the makers of it as much
withjn the reach of judicial process as an officer
would be if ho were about to execute an illegal
contraflow behalf of the city. Judgo Emmett
has issued an order requiring all tho rcfiactory
Aldermen to show causo, at a specal term to bo
held on the' second Monday of January, why an
attachment should not be issued against them for
contempt of Court in disobeying its injunction.

The Chamber of Deputies had awarded the Te-

affairs, had resigned, and no successor had yet
been appointed.

CIRCUMSTANTIAL EVIDENCE.
Tho Skowhegan (Me.) Clarion mentions a singu
lar circumstance, and one which warns us not to
place entiro reliance on circumstantial evidence,
A few years ago, a man by the namo of Johnson,
a pedlar, stopped at tbe house of one Hughes, in
Madison, and was never afterwards heard of until
recently. Some time after Johnson stopped with
Hughes the latter was drowned, and his wife be
came insane. She declared her husband the mur
derer of Johnson, and circumstances gave plausi
bility to her story. Now Johnston turns up in
California, aud the children of Hughes are thus re
lieved of the stigma of beiflg the offspring of a
murderer. "
