to believe that poygamy is not 50 uncommon aahing
in some sections Of the country as many suppose and
that it is only different in kind being tolerated but
nOtlegali1ed.
We can see no reason Why The representative Of
Government where Mahomedanism and pOlygamy
are the creed and practice Of the people, should not
be reeeivedin his official capacity and treated With
becoming courtesy and cordialityi but We confess
ourselves at loss any particular merit in such

bGr The people Of Marylaud have rejected the
proposition to cal Convention to change their
Constitution. It has bsen but q few years since 9
Convention Ofths character set in that State which
made various amendments to their organic laz, and
among ohers one providing for the sleetionof Judges
by the people. These amendments had been urged
BY the Democratic party, majority Of whom COM
posed the Convention, according to our recollection
L was to undo what this Convention had done that
the recent proposition for another Convention was
made. II vas supported principally by the Know
NOthings and opposed by The Democrats It thus
appears that the people Of Maryland are unwilling
to return to the old system Of having their Judges
appointed for them.
ssS- Our New York exchanges announce that poor
Mr. SUMEER, the Massachusetts Senator, has again
sailed for Europe. The Brooklyn N. T., Eagle,
makes known the fact as follows:
''senator Sumner has gone once more to Europe
and has addressed Ealedetory letter to his constiu
ents in which he says be has not yet recoVeredrOm
the Gaming he received and that II he had thought
be was to be 30 long under its influence he would
haveresigned, but be wished to expose the hideouS
barbarism Of Slavery and considered that his va
cant chair would be perpetual speech; or, in other
words, that his sore head would be good Black Re-
publican capital, and Rs such he would nurse It as
long possible. The fact that he drew his salary
as Senator without doing any Of the daties was We
suspect the real motive. Although the author Of
the assault has been removed to . higher tribunal
than public opinion Summers bowling has survived
the event and outlived public sympathy. man
with such an exceedingly tender eraniums ought to
have kept decent tongue in his head A Democrat
would have his hesd broken dozen times without
whining so much over it. Had Sumner graduated
at Fammany Hall he would have taken sll he got as
friendly joke"
