orally terminated the discussion by collaring his
antagonist and kicking his shins few Of his guests
were disposed to enter into the arena against him.

argument, he asked one of his suite why he did
not venture to give his opinion on some particular

QUALIFICATION OF VOTERS.

The New Orleans Bulletin advocates the intro.
daction OF rsading as qualification Tor voters in
that State, and thus discusses the subject There
are few Awssricaas who will not concur with the
view here expressed EfAis
Those who oppose this new test Of the elective
franchise point to its injustice to many old citizens
who have for years exercised the right without
any detriment to the public interest, and whom
this provision will deprive Of their just rights and
further, that some who have fought the battles Of
their country will come under this category, old
citizens who, through the inadequacy OF the means
for obtaining the rudiments of education In their
youth, have not been able for some cause other,
to supply the deficiency in maturer years, but Who
nevertheless, have discharged their duties TO the
State, aud are Justly entitled to the light Of
suffrage, much us any Of their more fortunate
and more intelligent neighbors We think this
objection to the reading and writing qualification
TO constitute q man a voter u good one; and If
there were no way by which this injustice to a
class Of voters could be obviated We should be
decidedly opposed to the principle under any
shape Or form whatever, in any Of its bearings.
But we think that the principle Is susceptible of
being modified and brought to bear prospectyely,
so az not only to make it not Objectionable but high
ly desirable and worthy Of adoption by every State
in the Union. The modification which we pro.
pose is that which would apply TO prospective
voters only, to such young men as by age would
be entitled to vote for the first time. Whatever
excuse there may have been Tor young men ofthe
past generation for neglecting to learn how to read
and write, there can be none now. The means Of
education through the public school system, which
nearly every State in the Union has now adopted,
not tospeak of the nnumerable private education,
al facilities which everywhere abound, leave no ex-
cuse for absolute inability to read and write. The
young man who is so lazy and SO stupid as wholly
to neglect them, and grow up iii ignorance so dis
graceful, ought not TO be allowed to vote. AZ .g
n We hope that every State in our widespread
and continually extending Republic will adopt this
principle, and allow no young man to vote for the
first time hereafter who cannot read and if neces-
sary copy the Constitution which he will be called
upon to obey. This would in many instances be
powerful stimulops to young men in the portions
of country that are sparsely settled to exert them
selves to acquire the rudimerts of knowledge,
which in this country and in this age Of the world
it is SO necessary that all should possess. aa,
