The Anti.Slavery Amendment.

The proceedings of the House of Repre-
ssntatives show that the requisite two
thirds vote has at last been obtained on the
proposed amendment of the Constitution
providing that neither slavery nor invol-
untary servitude, except as a punishment
for crime, whereof the party shall have
been duly convicted, shall exist within the
United States, or any place subject to their
jurisdiction, and that Congress shall have
power to enforce this prohibition by appro-
pirate legislation. The above propositions,
when ratified by. the Legislatures of two
thirds of the States, will become part of
the Constitution. The bill containing the
proposed amendment is not before US, and
therefore we cannot state the method of
submitting the question to the States.
That ,two-thirds will ratify it there can be
no doubt We hope this measure may not
prove another bar to the restoration of
peace and union, but we fear that it will.
The people of the South never would have
plunged into the war if their leaders had
not convinced them that their domestic
institutions would be interfered with by the
party now in power. Is it wise on our
part to verify to the letter all the predic-
tons of the rebel chiefs? o.,

Tragedy in Chicago.

From the Chicago Times Monday. -ro *.
The inmates of the Sherman House
were startled about 10 o'clock on Saturday
morning by the announcement that man
had poisoned himself in one of the upper
rooms. Half an hour previously, Mr..
Charles M. Winslow, of the firm of Clark
Il Winslow, produce dealers, carrying on
business in Pardee's building, South Water
street, entered the Office and engaged a
room with fire in it. He was conducted
to No. 1876 in the fourth story, where he
locked himself in. ~af
Some time afterward, one of the cham
bermaids, engaged in sweeping out the
hall, hearing groans from the apartment,
knocked at the door and inquired if any,
thing was wanted. Mr.. Winslow replied
that he required nothing; thereupon the
girl went down stairs and reported the cir
cumstance at the Office. Mr.. Waite, one
of the proprietors, with several others, i'm
mediately went to the chamber. Hearing
groans, caused evidently by intense suffer-
ing, they agked the inmate of the apart
ment to open the door. He replied that
he could not, waereupon one of the watt
ers entered through the transom, and
opened the door from the inside. Mr..
Winslow was lying on his bed, writhing in
agony, with his hands clutched convul.
sively over his breast Mr.. Waite ap-
preached the bedside and asked the suf-
ferer what was the matter. He replied
that be had taken strychnine, and was
dying. Some milk was poured down his
throat, but the unfortunate gentleman was
past all care. Before the physician, who
was promptly sent for, could arrive, the
poison had done its work. ~ ~
The deceased had nothing in his pockets
save few business cards, by means of
which he was identified. A note scram-
bled in pencil was found lying on the floor
near the bed. 1t was addressed to his
wife, and reads as follows:

iubilations attending the "edict OF free
dom," or,.as Mr.. LINCOLN termed it, "the
bull against the comet, and We are now
able to accurately estimate its real effect
on the fortunes of the war. A Senator OF
Minnesota (not Gov. RAMsRY) said in our
presence, Just after the proclamation was
issued, that it would result in an immedi-
ate revolt of the slaves; that in sixty days
negroes would be in arms; that all the
rebel railroad communications would be
cut. and insurgent forces starved into
submission or scattered to their homes, for
the protection of their families against
negro outrages; in short, that the rebel
lion had received its death-blow!, ana IL IN
less than a year would cease to exist. we
thought then, and we now know, that the
proclamation was worthless, even as a war
measure, and we think the constitutional !
amendment will be just as Intellectual. ana
much more mischievoue, because 1t Will De
q har TO the restoration OF the Union, that
cannot be easily removed. .,.

National Bank Bill.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 26.-The Secretary
of the Treasury recently sent to the Com
mittee of Ways and Means draft Of bill
from the Comptroller of the Currency.
saying that the Comptroller is of opinion
that additional restrictions upon the cir
culation of the national banks is demanded
On account of the rapdity with which
banking associations are being organized,
and the disposition manifested on the part
of managers of many of them to increase
their capital, for the purpose chiefly of in
creasing their circulation. In this view
Secretary Fessenden concurs. The bill
was to-day reported to the House, and
day was assigned for its consideration. 1t
provides that section 81 of the national
currency act be amended to read as fol-
lows: "That upon the transfer and deliv-
cry of bonds to the Treasury, as provided
in the foregoing section, the association
making the same shall be entitled to re-
ceive from the comptroller of the currency
circulating notes of different denomina-
tons in blank, registered and counter
signed as herein provided, equal in amount
10 80 per centnm of the current market
value Of the United States bonds so trans
ferred and delivered, but not exceeding 80
per centum OF the amount of said bonds at
par value thereof, if bearing interest at the
rate of not less than five per centum per
annum. The amount of such circulation
to be furnished to each association shall
be in proportion to its paid-up capital as
follows, and no more: To each association
whose capital shall not exceed $1O0, 900,
go per centum; where the capital exceeds
100000, but does not exceed 81 ,0OO, 900,
| 80 per centum; where the capital exceeds
u, O00,0 900, but does not exceed 81, OOO,-
600, 20 per centum; where the capital
exceeds So, 100000, go per centum."

In the United States Court at Ind;.

In the United States Court at Indian
apolis Monday, a case was decided that
will go far towards stopping the exorbit-
ant charges made by claim agents for col
Letting the bsunties and pensions due SOL
diers. The act Of Congress provides that
no more than $40 shall be demanded or
received. The penalty for violation is
$500 fine or Imprisonment for two years.
The case was that of the United States
against @. G. Werbe, and the testimony
showed that he retained 800 from wild
ow for collecting her pension. The jury
found him guilty. Let it be distinctly un-
derstood by all soldiers and their friends
that an exorbitant charge is criminal
offence.

Rxcess of Years Of Service 70 be Al.
lowed-HOw TO Determine the
Ouota Of q Sub.Dlstr1ct.

RXCeA0 Oh x00Io "a CcHVACO W VO AZ
1oved-How to Determine the
quota OF q sub,District.
We learn from Col. AvKRuL that by late
decisions of the War Department all ex-
cess of years service viii first be reduced
to three years men before allowing the
same upon the quotas under the late call.
The quotas of towns may be approx
mated thus:
The Enrolment of the Second Congress
sional District Is about. ........... 5000
The quota of the District. 511
The Total sum of excess by Sub-districts
aDout. .5,3OO
Reduced to three years men and added
TO quota. ................... LOO
2,6ll
The per cent. therefore for towns hav-
ing no excess to be deducted, will be about
one-third of the enrolment ,of the town.
Deduct the excess as three years men and
the quota of sub-district having excess
will be obtained.
To make the matter clear we will sup
pose, the enrolment of st. Paul to be
150O--and suppose, also, that we have no
excess of years of service (Which is not
the fact by long chalk } our quota would
be 500, or one in every three men enrolled.
The draft will be very heavy on towns
that are deficient On three year calls, and
on the call of last year for one year men,
as the aggregate years of deficiency, as
well as their quota under the. present call,
must now be filed. .H
