Partv lead CTS and aleinhgog may deinar, but patri- otic Americans aD it seems to me need but ohe sentiment op this q0estious Again the proposed amendment will require all to be able to read nesarsicle of the Constitution of this State. Every person when admitted to the privilege of the elective franchise is required to take au oath to support that ini- mortal instrument, and it seems to me ! strange when Tedsct'npon the subject, that SD long we have been acting the solemn farce ot requiring men with npliited hands 10 swear to support thit Constitution, not Iloae syllable of which t6ey sv$f kadE oreyer ! expected to read. not one promise. of -which. 'Ethey could understand and comprehend. We boast as ape6pie sf hayihk lived dn. der the first written Constitution, and vet we are daily admitting men as electors who scarcely kn9wthsir. tight hand from their Jeff. .-much less ate atquaintsd With the mersst ruiimenis nf edacatiou. The law if passed will oqty be prospective in its oper- alton. and taking into accuunt the fact that so liberal provisions Hre made by the State for the education of the masses, who can, Say with reason and propfiety that so rea- ; sonahIe preliminary step should not be taken before being admitted to the disiin- guished privileges of American citizenship.

Let it not be said of the people of this county they are in favor of ignorance, bigotry anu ecclesiastical tyranny. But rather let them show by iheir votes upon these questions that, whi they would gladly ex,end to tho alien the rights of property aud pefsonal
  blessings of ourSfree institutions, they are yet unwilling till they shall have become Amrricanized, intelligent and fitted for the sacred trust to commit to their hands the des,inies of this mighty Republic.
