The new Constitution of Yirginia-that
is, that portion of the Old Dominion under
the control of the Secessionists-adopted re.
Gently by State Convention, contains,
among others, the following changes:
The provision in the old Constitution re-
quiring that moiety Of the capitation tax
upon white persons be applied to the pur-
poses of primary schools, is repealed.
Most of the elections are taken from the
hands of the people entirely. The Cover
nor must have majority of all the ViUa Uoce
votes cast, or else the General Assembly
selects from the three candidates who stand
highest. The present Board of Public
Works, elected by the people, is abolished,
and the Legislature elects and controls it
hereafter. The election of Judges is taken
from the people and given to the General
Assembly. Judges are to hold Office during
good behavior, or until seventy years Of
age. Clerks Of Courts and Prosecuting At
tOrneys are to be appointed by their re-
spective Courts, instead of being elected by
the people as formerly. The Attorney-Gen-
eral is to be appointed by the Legislature
for an indefinite term of Office, instead Of
elected by the people for term Of years as
at present. Sheriffs to be nominated by
the County Courts and appointed by the

LATER.


Prince Albert, the husband of Queen Vic
toris, whose death was announced day or
two since, was born at Rosensu on the 26th
of August, 1919. He was the second son of
Ernest, Duke of SAKE Coburg Gotha, under
whose immediate personal superintendence
he received an admirable education, which
he completed by attending the o University of
Bonn during three academical sessions. In
July, 1888, he visited England in company
with Leopold, King of Belgium, and spent
some time at the court of the youthful
queen, and in November, 1889, it was form
ally announced to the privy council by the
queen, that she intended to form matrimo-
nial alliance with Prince Albert. The
secret had long been public property,
but was kept in suspense by the deco
rousl contradictions of the ministerial
journals The marriage was solemuized
February TO- 1910. For the purpose of rem
dering him perfectly independent, the mu-
nifcent personal allowance of $l50,000 a
year was made to him by Parliament. He
was a man of refined taste, and an accom-
plished musician and draughtsman. For
hidden by his position to interfere in poll
tics, heoccupied himself with superintend-
ing the education of his children. The pro-
gress af the arts and sciences, and general
philanthropic subjects, such as the dwellings
of the working classes, sanitary arrange,
ments, &C., also engaged his attention.
AS President of the Society of Arts, he
was the chief promoter of the great exhibi-
tion of 1851. Similar exhibitions, confined
TO native productions, had been long held in
Paris, Brussels, and even in Manchester, and
other towns Of England. But when the
idea of holding one in London was suggested
to Prince Albert he readily adopted it, and
zeslously co-operated in the scheme Of ex.
tending it to the whole world.
The popularity which, for a long time, he
had enjoyed with all classes was for briel
space overloaded, in 1855 when rumorE
were current among the opponents of Gov.
ernment, that the prince took an undue in.
terest in political affairs and even held com
munications with some German courts
which were prejudical to English interests
SO that the ministers thought It necessary tt
clear.up all doubts, by an explicit denial o
the report from their places in Parliament
He was noted, in country of scientific
agriculmrists, for the spirit with which hi
carried out agricultural experiments, anC
his farming stock has been frequently exhib
tied, and gained prizes. As patron of art
Prince Albert has shown himself PARTICULAR!
active.

The Paris Figaro is responsible for the
following amusing parallel between femin-
inc humanity in France and Germany;
The French women dresses, the German
clothes herself. The German walks, the
Parisienne undulates. German women are
either handsome or ugly; Parisiennes are
charming; none Of them are ugly, nor are
they even beautiful. Whether excited or
listless, the look of the German woman is
always frank and honest. What delicious
abysses are the eyes Of the Parisienne AS
Count de Grammont once remarked-"Her
eyes always seem to be doing something
more than merely looking st yOu The
German says yes or no. With the Parish
enne it is never quite yes, nor altogether
no. The German will wait for you at the
trysting-place ten years; the Parisienne,
ten minutes. Parisienne is superlatively
knowing; the German is good. The Ger
man is content with the admiration Of one !;
the French women longs to be admired by
all, and would rather give her betrothed
than the public. The Parisienne is as ar
lists, the German woman. MoRAIr-LoVe

Down ON 'EM.-The Rock Island Argus is
down on officers who spree it themselves and
refuse their men the same estimable privi-
lege. 1t says: I .aI
Soldiers should submit to military disci
pline, of course, but it is useless to expect
very quiet submission by volunteers, when
their officers spend thnee-fourths Of their
time riding over railrosds, and swelling
about hotels and saloons, Showing their lace,
drinking whisky, playing cards, smoking
cigars, and talking big about the war. Who
made these officers? The men. Without
their votes not one in ten of them would
ever had right to wear piece of lace. Are
they any better than the men in the ranks2
OF course not But somebody must be
officers, and the men choose those they think
most suitable. After they are chosen they
generally show their contempt for the men
who elected them, and use their arbitrary
power to show the world what differences
there is between officers and men. Yet they
owe their places TO the men, and the ranks
often contain their superiors in every re-
spect. There are too many such officers in
the volunteer army, and it is not strange
that their men are insubordinate-the eX-
ample of their officers makes them 80. IL

One Hundred Thousand Rides from Ger.


Thurlow Weed writes from Paris to the
Albany EUening Journal:
In one most essential element of war we
shall soon be relieved. The fact that the
South intended war long before we supposed
it possible, and not only rifled Northern ar
senals, but procured large supplies of arms
from Europe, left US to open the. campaign
at great disadvantage. This disadvantage
has both delayed action and exposed our
troops to murderous fire before their inferior
arms became effective. But this Inequality
will soon cease. Mr.. George l.. Schuyler,
the Government agent, has completed his
mission. He has obtained from the Govern
ment arsepals in Austria and Saxony over
one hundred thousand rifles equal to any in
the world These arms are now on their way
to America. ..yI ....
MIR. Schuyler, though for long time en-
bsrrassed and thwarted, and all the while
encountering riValries and complications,
finally overcame them all, and goes home re-
warded for his efficiency and fidelity, by
complete success. =
The knowledge that our Government
needed arms has sharpened the cupidity and
wits of all who deal in them.i The armorers
of Europe are at work now, night and day,
in patching up old muskets, and in counter
feiting new ones, in the hope of palming
them upon our Government. Europe abounds
with inferior, discarded muskets, while new
and reliable arms, in hand, are only obtained
from government arsenals, and that oi
course, with great difficulty.

GEDERAL LANE ON OUR VoLUNTEERs.-We
do not indorse any of the inferences which
might be drawn from the following remarks
of General Lane in the Senate, the other
day, but it would seem that his experience
ought to entitle his observ atoms to hear
ing; 'H--.
If the magnificent army we now have
should go into winter quarters, it would be
fatal to us and demoralize the army. The
people were as intelligent as they were
patriotic, and they would not require i'm.
possibilities nor insist up Oh premature action,
and thus we are brought to the question OF
strength and preparation. Why is our army
inactiVe2 Will it be answered that it is still
deficient in discipline2 That would be as
unjust as illogical. Ours is an army of
volunteers, who must not be judged by the
rules applied to regulars. The citizen
soldier is an individual, and no amount of
discipline can destroy that individuality.
-Four months OF industrious drill lis ample
time to prepare such troops for effective
service. Prolonged inactivity will finally
discourage their zeal. The prospect of action
must be ever present as an incentive. Inac-
tion is the bane of the volunteers. He had
had large experience in training volunteer
soldiers. The training of two regiments in
Mexico, his labors in Kansas, and the cam
paign of last spring and summer, gave him q
practical knowledge on this subject entitled
to consideration. The regiments that fought
and won the battle of Buena Vista were not
as we'll provided as the army of the Potomac
and not better drilled. He had witnessed
their drill and was satisfied they had reached
the maximum of discipline attainable by
volunteers, and every day Of inaction tends
| to their decentralization. -. .
