The Word white .

From the agoniZng howl that went up from
the Democratic Press, with an occasional
whimper in other quarters during the late can
vass, q disinterested spectator of passing
events would have supposed that some awful
calamity was pending over the State, and
mind not bswildered by political fanaticism
would have been surprised to learn that it all
arose from the fact that an opportunity was
given to the people of Iowa il they choose to
exercise it to strike the word ss.chite'' out of
the Constitution, WORD, the absence of which
from the national constitution has never to
our knowledge done any harm, nor given rise
to any apprehension of the elevation OF COL
ored man to the Presidency.
But said some nervous persons, il the word
white Is not in the constitution will no. colored
men have the right of votingp To such per-
sons il did not seem to occur that it would first
be necessary for colored persons to have an
existence here, and that not one of them would
have been known on the Western Continen,
had they not been brought or reared here by
those who love them so well that they wan,
them to drive their carriages, to be at their
elbow at the dinner table, and somewhere near
while they sleep.
These negro lovers are now held in check
by wholesome laws, which are not likely ia
be repealed, SO that they can never Jill our
State with these favorites, and the whole num-
Der will probably never exceed an average of
three to county. These, OF course, as ne
groes have strong prejudice against color,
will but rarely ofIiciate with black republicans.
but most of them being born in this country,
will naturally support the .american ticket.
while some, more greedy of national emolu-
ment and renown, will be likely to sympathise
with the national democracy.
The whole question, then dwindled to mat.
ter of no practical moment whatever. The
result of the election proves that very few
voted to strike out the word any hoy, AMI
those that did SO may have done it to give t.
the convention little more of the dignity o.
State document.
II we continue to slide into vulgarisms a.
fast as politicians have doHe since the consti
tation OF fhe United States was formed, ",
shall soon need new summation of the divine
