DEMOCRATS on the CONSTITUTIONAL AMEND
xESr.-No fact is more apparent then this,
that the Democratic party, however much Of
principle they may have, never take that
valuable article into consideration in shap-
ing the course Of the party. 1t has been SC
for years. AS an illustration Of thu fact oil
luded to, and as an indication Of the fate o.
slavery, we copy the remarks Of the New
York Leader, the organ Of the Tammany De
mocracy:
The members OF Congress are called to vote
upon an amendment to the Constitution, alb
rogating slavery. As matter OF sound pol
ICY, no less than matter of national reform,
we urge every Representative from this State
to vote for that amendment. We have do
we have lost two Presidential elections upon
the slavery issue: we have given to the Re-
publicans twenty-five counties OF this State
which used to be Democratic; We have made
sacrifices enough for an institution which the
Southerners themselves are now willing to
relinquish, and we ought to be glad 0f the
opportunity to get rid Of it constitutiouAlly
and forever We assure those who hesitate,
that the South will come back to the Union,
tired Of slavery, and that no one can posi-
bly, make capital by upholding il. Let not
this stale bone Of contention again distract
and embitter our relations. Let us put down
slavery unanimously, and it will have no
mourners. Clear the way for u permanent
peace.

Increase of Salary.

Quite lively time has been experienced
Ia the Legislature on the bills increasing the
salary Of the Register OF Probate for this
County from S625 to $1,000. Finally the
bill was postponed by vote Of 6S to 81.
The only objection urged against the matter
was the increase Of taxes. We were afraid
that this proposed measure, acknowledged to
DO just in this case, would b, defeated by the
clamor from all parts Of the State for gen.
cral increase Of salary. Thus an act deman-
ded per Sc is set aside, not because it is not
Just, but because il is precedent for future
case. Such legislation is every way unwor-
thy. II the accomplishment Of any object is
right. it should be granted by our Legislators,
because il ia right, and matters which are
wrong, should be defeated because they are
wrong. This increase Of salary is imperative'

Giles in London. The secesh In London were
quite jubilant over the fact that the new pirates
Viper and Rappahannock were upon the ocean
aud predictions were freely made that Ameri'
can commerce had not yet received its severes
blow. They evidently did not count on the
capture Of Wilmington releasing several OF our
hest and fastest gunboats, who will now pay
particular attention to such pirates as may
have the temerity to Haunf the rebel flag ai
