shall be swep,frcrni The civil codes through
out the extended and extending Union.
The present is a peculiarly propitious
era Unconstitutional reform. Those pro-
visions in our rejected constitution which
were regarded as in advance, are now
quite as much inthe, rear, Of public senti-
ment in its onward march. As proof Of
this, our readers are referred to The re-
modelled constitutions of the states above
alluded to, [Missousi, Louisiana and Tex
as;) ofwhich we have heretofore given
some account. In $50 important an UNI
eertaking as that inI'which we are about
to engage. a wise people, having due re
gard for their future prosperity and hap
pincss, will not fail to profit by the ex-
perience cffhose, who, having tested a
certain system Of government, have found
it radically defective in some Of its parts,
and that it contains suchs serious evils as
require eradication. The page of his,o-
~, replete with instruction, is here laid
open before them. Its salutary teachings
should be permitted to go unheeded.-
II furnishes chart with the dangerous
rocks and sand bars distinctly marked,
that those who will, may avoid them.
While, therefore, we are OF opinion
that in some of the details, our new con-
stitution can be made an improvement up
on the old dralt--concerning which we
will speak more particularly at the proper
t'me-in all those leading principles COM
posing the soul which is to animate the
body politic-M hieh are designed to mark
our supreme law, and give to it distinc-
tive character. as the civil code Of an en-
lighened and high minded people, who
understand, and know how to maintain,
their inalienable rights, who duly appre-
clate the boon Of freedom and the attribute
OF sovereignty we are decidedly in favor
of modelling after the old draft, except in
those particulars wherein its provisions
come shcrt OF the advancement made in
constitutional reform and in the science OF
political economy.

But the above named sheet is not wor-
thy Of much notice. The Houkeye is max.
ing the most desperate efforts, and gives
more piausibility 10 its deceitful ovcrlnres.
i goes in strong for ! peoples convention
Of both parties--goes the niirc amalgama-
ton and proposes 10 instruct the Dele
gates. Now, ifthese instructions we're 10
come from..the mass oflhe peopl from The
countryside farming community 1--we
would be willing to meet the Hawkeye.
But it is the people Of the towns, almost
exclusively, that would give such intruc-
tions as suits their peculiar interest But
we expect instructions from the agricul-
tural and lsboring classes, without any
dictation from the wing press, the pecu-
liar organs Of the non producing interests;
and that It may be distinctly and empha-
tically given is, the object Of this article,
which we address to them.
They pretend 10 denounce par
~ constitution; but they underrate the
intelligence Of those they are talking
to. II men entertain principles and
are honest, whether wings or demo-
Gratis, they will on all occasions ad-
here othem, and more especially in mat
ter ofsuch vital Importance as the forma-
ton Of constitution. Is any one so credu-
lous as to suppose, tina, if the wings were
in the ascendant, they would neglect to
engraft their principles upon the consti-
tuition, and give it as strong party bias as
possible? Ifthere is, he must have quite
lost sight oithe past history Of that party,
particularly ofthe page which records their
broken pledges made to the people in 1910.
and their shameful abuse, in lS4l, of the
power acquired by virtue Of those pledges.
Our duty is thus far performed, in OK.
posing the expedients to which our op-
ponents are resorting, to effect their object.
We have only further TO add, that they
are active, secretly organized. and ready
to resort TO any thing for taking advantage
OF the Democracy and for furthering their
designs. We say then, to the Democracy,
organize likewise; be ready to meet them;
and show them tina, their old and favorite
motto "diride and conquer" can not avail
them. The time Of election approaches
rapidly; no delay, therefore, should be made
in holding your township, county and dis
trict conventions, and bringing out your
best and truest men.

The "NO-party" Party.


The wing press, and particularly on,
joking neighbor Of the Hawk-eye, is con-
stan,ly harping upon the themes ola spar.
ty constitution and "no- party consiitu.
''-strenuously urging the latter upon
the favorable consideration Of the people
Now the wings claim, we believe, to be q
party, and pretty considerable Of party
at that, if we are to judge from their blus-
tering about principle, "!ocotoco misrule, y
and all that. A tree is to DO known by
its fruits; and the only criterion for distin-
gushing party. being the measures or
policy advocated by it, the wings Of Iowa,
who are the sole adyocats of this incom-
prehensible thirg, this SUI ge,,eris, called
party constitution, are fairly entitled
to the cognomen Of the no party party. 1t
designates non-descript kind Of pap'y, we
are ready to admit. We never heard Of
any thing 10 compare with it, except it be
sect in olden time, the members whereof
persisted in questioning their own identi-
ty and individual existence. Still, If we
rccur to past history, it will appear that
they are perfectly consistent with them
selves; for this is precisely the position
occupied BY that party before the public
in the memorable coon skin and hard cider
campaign, ''as near az you can stick your
finger in-your eye
