We are gratfed to see that Gov. Veazey in
his message to the Legislature of Maryland, at the
commencement Of its present session, has recon-
mended TO that body the extension of the law fol
the registration of voters throughout the State
This ought to have been done at first instead oil
conining its operation to Baltimore alone.


In fact, the circumstances connected with the
alien population, augmented and constantly
accumulating, make it highly expedient, if not
absolutely necessary, that that law should be CO.
extensive with the limits Of the state and that a
similar law should prevail throughout every State
in the Union, to guard our institutions against
those numerous frauds, by which the sacred right
of voting-the very foundation of our system--is
abused and likely to be brought into contempt


We hope the Legislature will act promptly in
carrying ou, ths.suggestion the Governor which
we consider of paramount Importance. The chief
magistrate of Maryland, whose gnbernatoral
Term has lust closed, will enjoy, in retirement that
lust pride, which the consciousness OF his having
done his duty is well calculated to inspire. He
has secured an elevated reputation for himself,
and maintained the honor and dignity ofthe State.
