NEW CONSTITUTION.
Sc tar as we can learn large majority
of the soldiers who hare been visited by
the State Commissioners have voted against
The new Constitution Those that have
had a chance to read it hesitate not to op-
pose and condemn. It is not what they
expected or desired. On Monday last
Col. J:.nes IL T1ue's 62d Ill Infantry, sta
toned at the time at Paducal, voted on the
adoption of the Peter Funk Constitution,
and rejected it ly three to one. This regi-
mcnt was raised in The Southern
part Of the State, and a majority Of the
members are probably Democrats. But
many Of the strongest Democrat; in the
regiment were the wa1mect opponents Of
the humbug contri7ance If a fair vote Of
the soldiers lie t.-ken, q vast majority of
them will go against its ratification. One
reason is, that the illinois soldiers don't
want to have their largc-lcarted aud bcst
friend, Governor Yat,s, turned out Of
bis officc, few months hence, u
make roon, for some new man
whom they know not, and who may be
their enemy. They are perfectly satisfied
with the man who is laboring 50 zealously
and efficiently IL for their SICK and wounded
companions. And when the 111tA Of June
comes, tie relatives Of the soldiers at home
