Congress will at once heed all the suggestions

must commend itself to the people Will find
favor with the law makers.
We agree with the Memphis Wing in the
conclusion, that the intelligence OF the South
and West is rapidly on the increase and her
intellectual developments are daily requiring
increased facilities for the more speedy and
satisfactory exchange of thought and opinion.
Observation and the experience OF her more
advanced sisters, has awakened spirit OF en-.
ulation which will urge her TO prefer The prac-
teal experiment TO The refined theories OF ha'r.
splitting economists. Imaginary constitution

who have con,ented themselves with the oppa-
parenty conclusive deductions of political
morasts, will prefer the better and more sat

But this gradual emancipation of thought aud
sentiment will not be turred to profitable &C
count, If tue political press shall no'e seize up.
on it and make it the subject Of unsparing crit.
icism Let the deliberations Of this cOnven.
ton go forth to The world. unaccompaned by
comments, which, however true, would only
tend 10 defeat the purposes Of its organization,
and the legislation OF the next Congress will
not only justify the hopes of those assembled,
but radical change of sentiment will be ci-
