By reference to the proceedings of the
Legislature, published elsewhere in this i'm
preston, it will be seen that Mr.. NEAL, Of
Marion, introduced q bill to amend Article
l, Section 4, Of the Constitution, 30 ss to
restrict persons allowed to testify in the
courts Of the State. This Is all right enough in
itself, were it not, that in the pursuit Of the
ssnager," the gentleman allows his zeal to
far out-strip his better judgment. The Con-
stitution has been the supreme law of the
State but . few brief months-not long
enough to test its virtues, nor yet to devel-
op the unftness Of any Of ita provisions
This instrument was submitted to the people
in August last-its merits and dement's,
were freely and fully canvasssd-and pass
ed upon approvingly by the people, and
therefore this move to amend the same,
seems to US ill-timed and uncalled for. AZ
ter warm debate, the subject was inde6-
nitely postposed. The gentleman from Ma
rion will have to look up another "nager,"
or his occupations gone. .a-s.g..a
