under the restriction of the present Consti-

amendment.
If it were qualified and had time, it
would require from four to six years to Sc
cure the adoption of a legislative amend
ment; and as while the amendments enact
ed by one Legislature were under discussion,
none others could be proposed, it is probable
that, to accomplish the alterations of four or
five obnoxious provisions, it would require
a generation of time.
Beside, the Legislature is body liable to
be operated upon by external influences. A
large monied corporation has a peculiar in

secured to il by the constitutions; experience
has taught u. that it has an irresistible in

RoAD.-We clip the following from the
Olney Ills Times of the 22d inst:
One word lin relation to the officers and
employees of the Evansville & Crawfords-
willie Railroad, of whom too much praise
cannot be given. Messrs. Bloom and Van
Name, conductors, are evidently the most
accomplished gentlemen that ever filled The
position they occupy. In fact all the en-
ployecs are particularly attentive 10 busi-
ness, and, in the main, polite in tkeir treat
ment To those who travel the road. With
such men a trip is truly source Of pleasure.
With so many good men on the road, we
are sorry 10 say that the Station Agent at
Terre Haute forms an exception, and we fear
that he sometimes forgets that his position
should be filled by gentleman.

The GREAT EAsTERN's MAsTs.-From an ar
ticle in the London Times, describing the pres
ent condition of the monster steamer, we take
the following account of the masts
" The SIX masts are already nearly made
There are to be one FORE two main. and three
mizzen masts, the first five of iron, the last of
wood, in order not to influence the comlasses.
The foremost and three mizzens will be rugged
with fore and aft sails, the mainmast only being
permanently square rugged The first mizzen
is, however, of the same size us the last main
mast, and it is intended that when the weather
may make it necessary, this also shall be square
rugged. All the spars, of course, are of iron,
as wooden spars Of such size and required t, do
such work could scarcely be depended on. Each
is built of boiler plate, with wrought iron discs,
strengthened with angle iron, and boted inside
the tube to give addtionalrigidity. Construct
ed in this manner, each mast costs less than half
the price of wooden ones, while, of course. the
metal has the advantage of being nearly double
the strength. By this plan also, what would
otherwise have been an almost insuperable diff
culty-viz, stepping wooden masts into a slip
Of such nights entirely got rid of. The
foremost is 2 feet 0 inches diameter, and l72
eet high from keel to truck. The first main
mast is feet inches diameter, and 2l6 feet
high, the second is of the same grt, but 225
feet high, The first mizzen is of the size as the
first main; the second is 1873 feet high ant 2
feet inches diameter while the third and last
is Of wood of the Same dimensions round as tile
iron, and l54 feet high. The lower yards Of
the square-rigged masts are likewise of IRON
Each is l26 feet long, and 2 feet 6 inches in di.
ameter in the centre. The upper topsail and
topgallant yards are of wood, and of propor-
tionately of large dimensions"

allowed themselves short respite for breathing,
during which they gave vent to their wrath by
many shrill screeehes. Then they renewed their
endeayors to force the hunter from his resting
place. Mounted ON their hind paws, they
would reach for him; but the blows with the
stick, applied to their noses, would make them
deslst In vain did they exhaust every means
to force the man to descend he was not to be

sustained upon their noses had now aroused
them almost to madness. Together they made

the tree, when he hastened to regain and inn
mediately to reload his rife"

A GOOSE SToRY.-During the last few days
large numbers of wild geese have visited our
island, arriving in focks of forty or more, and
many of them have fallen victims to the skill of
our sharp sighted sportsmen, about thirty hav-
ing been killed since last Friday. Gu Sunday
last, Mr.. John Welcome surprised a flock of
them asleep, and managed to get near enough
to seize one before they were aware of his ap-
proach. The goose squalled and struggled, and
an old gander, the patriarch of the flock, gal
lantly came to the rescue. The contest was
short, but severe; Welcome holding his prize
by tho tail-feathers, and defending himself from
the assaults of his feathered antagonist with
the other, while the gander used his wings vig-
orously about his head Hard blows were
given on both sides, but the plumage by which
the goose was held suddenly coming out, he
made his escape, and the battle terminated -

AN IRISH LEGEND.-On the west coast of Ire.
land, near the Cliffs of Moher, at some distance
out in the bay, the waves appear continually
breaking in with white foam, even on the calm
est day. The tradition among the country peo-
pie is that great city was swallowed up there
for some great crime, and that it becomes visible
once every seven years. And if the person who
sees it could keep his eyes fixed on it till he
reached it, it would then be restored, and he
would obtain great wealth. The man who re-
lated the legend stated farther, that, some years
ago, some laborers were at work in a field on
the hillside in view of the bay; and one of
them, happening to cast his eyes seaward, saw
the city in all its splendor emerge from the deep.
He called to his companions to Look at it but,
though they were close to him, he could not
attract their attention At last he turned
round to see why they would not come, but, on
looking back when he had succeeded in attract
ing their attention, the city had disappeared -

mate good"

A CUNNING HoRsE.-Franconi, director of the
Hippodrome IN Paris, and the famous artist in
horsemanship, has trained horse with great
care to feign being severely wounded, and go
limping back to his place, The four-lootad ac-
tor performing his part admirably at rehearsal,
knowing we'll that disobedienee would be fol-
lowed by immediate punishment; but when
the time came for exhibition, the cunning beast
made the discovery that there would be no
whipping in the presence of an audience, and
instead of limping, as it ought, galloped back
as if nothing had happened. Franconi was
obliged to resort to the expedient of getting up
an audience to deceive the refractory animal
Relying on the protection as before, the horse
again refused to limp, and received sound
beating. This impaired his confidence In the
public ds "a shield from his master whip, and
from that time his part was well performed at
every representation.

SAVE THE VEGETABLE SEEDs.-Many seeds
are annually wasted from not being gathered
at the right time. They left till convenient
season, and then one "job" is made of it, In
this way,as they do not ripen at the same time,
the first matured and most valuable are lost
and many are taken while yet green and worth
less. The garden should be visited every day
from the first ripening, and the mature heads
collected, the stalks being severed with sharp
knife or shears Sheets or newspapers may be
spread upon the floor of chamber or garret,
and the different kinds laid separately upon
them. When The gathering is completed, and
the seeds have thoroughly dried rub them oul,
clean them, and put them in bags OF cloth or
paper. Each parcel should be distinctly label
ed with the name, and the year when gather,
ed. Many vexatious mistakes will thus be
avoided next Spring. All seeds for future
planting should be kept as far as possible from
heat, moisture and light. The vitality will be
impaired, if not destroyed, by carelessness in
this respect. Tin cases, glass jars, or even
tight wooden boxes are preferable to leaving
them loose in the "closet"
