you feel happy for month to come. Such happiness
You can give to others. How, do you ask? By
dropping sweet words, kind remarks and pleasant
smiles as you pass along. These are true pearls and
precious stones which can never be lost of which
none deprive you. Speak to that orphan child !;
see the diamonds drop from her cheeks. Take the

MlIRAGE.-The Cleveland Herald of the 9th gives
the following description of phenomenon of this
kind:
Those who were at the lake shore little after
yesterday, were gratiled by novel and beautiful
sight. Shipping that were before beyond the range
Of vision suddenly odmed up and appeared sailing in
air. Land, too became visible, and many were the
speculatons as to the meaning of the unwonted ap-
pearance, some maintaining that huge field of ice
had made its appearance at the horizon After u
short time, however, the beautiful picture became II
"dissolving view" and vanished like the baseless
fabric of Il vision" leaving '' not a rack behind.

As to the right of Congress to apply such restriction

On one side it naturally occurs that the right being

On the ether side it cannot be denied that the consu

The questions to be decided seem to be-

WASHINGTON Cry, March

WASHINGTON Cry March 25 1851
To he Editor Of the Union,
SIM In your issue Of the 2ls inst in which the act OIL
the legislative assembly of Kansas Territory providing
for the formation of State constitution published
you copied alse article from the New York Journal
Commerce, which called in question the propriey OF n
course of that body in not providing for reference h
constitution to the people, and stated that failure so
do was in the Judgment of that paper "a manifest defect
Being somewhat acquainted with the impressions under
which the assembly acted, trust may be pardoned
saying word in explanation Of their view of the matter
The committees in which the bill originated were Of
opinion that the assembly had no power to dictate to h
convention (Which, when assembled would represent h
sovereignty Of the peope) what course should be puF
sued on that or any other subject.
If the assembly had power to command reference Of
the constitution to the people, that body certainly had The
right to make other requirements and thus might have
dictated provisions any other subject
There can be doubt of reference of the constu'
ton to the people, and that the objection urged by M
Journal of Commerce will be removed.
