THE DELTA VS.. THE CONSTITUTION

Our evening contemporary thus notices our
yesterdays remarks upon the Legislatures
failure to perform that direct and simple duty
imposed upon it, beyond its choice of avoidance,
by the lately enacted Constitution
The Crescent is for Registry Law. We don't believe
in it. The rascas who commit fraud will always comply
with the law il would be the most Indifferent and
less Of people politically regular citizens who will
suffer from such regulation
Thus, it seems, that in the Deltas view the
performance or non-performance of the strictest
legislative duty is to rest for its justification,
not upon the obligation itself, as created by the
highest possible authority, but upon the opinion
which may chance to be entertained of the fit
ness of the law itself by any journal of this city,
of this State, or, perhaps, of anything else at
home or abroad. For, why should the Delta
have any greater authority to dissolve a consti-
tutional obligation, and dispense legislators
from their oaths of obedience to what has been
prescribed by the Constitution than Tom, Dick,
Harry, and other such voluntary, self-erected
settlers aside Of duty, of oaths, and everything
else that is Of solemn prescription.
The Delta, however, reasons on this matter
It's Will, alone, is not the source of all law or of
, all iaw-bresking. 1t is willing to rest the mat
ter In part upon reason, at least to reinforce
the legitimate decision Of its mere will, its ipse-
dtraf, by the sanction Of its argument 1t uses
It's VIII somewhat strongly, its right hand, its
argument somewhat feebly, as its left. As its
first argument against the law it urges that it
doesn't believe in it. Now, to our poor appre-
