The Connecticut Constitution

The Legislature of Connecticut has fixed
upon the I'd day of October tor the people to
vote for and against an amendment TO the
constitution of the state, striking out the word
white, so as TO permit negroes, mulattoes
and Indians to vote. 1t is said the republi-
cans have decided in caucus TO make regu-
lar canvass in favor Of the amendment, and
TO send out speakers to instruct their people
to vote yes, and to satisfy them that il is ii
good thing to establish negro equality, and
90 allow an African TO vote, while their wives
and daughters are not permitted to cast bal
lot. All this sounds queeriy, coming from
she very party which, only few years since.
was moving the heavens and the earth Of
their little nutmeg state to convince the peo-
pie that If the Irish and Dutch were to be
permitted TO continue voting the country
would, from this cause. be driven to destruc-
ton. And, then. ID show that the earnest
men of that section were sincere in this be-
lief, few catholic churcees were burned in
proof thereof. This latter day move has one
merit in it, however. aud that is consistency
1t is altogether right that, while they are de-
termined to force negro suffrage upon others,
they should first swallow the dose themselves
81. Louis Republican -----
The evening Argus. [volume] (Rock Island, Ill.) 1861-1871, 1865-07-27

Paradoxical as the statement may seem, we
have long been of the opinion that MAORI
tv of the intelligent gentlemen of the United
States have never studied the constitution OF
their country with any careful attention.
We are led to make this remark by seeing it
reported at meeting in this city on Thurs
day last, in honor of some teachers recently
returned from the south, one OF the speakers
said that some of our merchants who were
anxious to have the suffrage question rightly
settled were taking measures to bring case
b.fore the supreme court of the United States,
in order to get decision of the question
whether the clause of the constitution author
izing the states to fix the qualifications OF vo-
tiers gave power to make color qualification.
If there are any merchants medltating such
an an enterprise, we beg leave to inform them
that there is no clause in the constitution au-
thorizing the states to fix the qualifications
of voters. The states had power before the
constitution was formed, and of course were
not indebted for il to that Instrument. AT the
time the constitution was formed there were
Is states in existence. in each OF which an
executive officer and Legislative assemblies
were chosen by the people. The publications
of voters varied in different ststes, and in no
one was universal and unrestricted suffrage
the rule. The constitution was formed, as
we say, by the people of these states collect
lively as the southern politicians have gener-
ally maintained, by the states themselves in
their cOrpOste capacities; but under neither
construction was it ever coutended that the
national government had any thing TO d. with
the qualifications of voters In the several
states. The second section of the first art-
Gle of the constitution provides that the cleo
tors of members of the house of representa-
| tives shall have the qualifications requisite
| for electors of the most numerous branch of
the state legislature, but no violence of con-
structon can extract from this clause the
| power 10 prescribe who shall be electors OF
! the most numerous branch of the state legis-
latures. This power is left to the states them
selves. Had the trainers of the constitu ton
| clothed the general government with the pow
ar to fix the qualifications of voters in the
several states, the constitution would have
been rejected by every state. and none more
promptly than Massachusetts, which has al
ready been second only by South Carolina in
the care with which she has guarded her state
rights from assault or intrusion.
IL is very creditable to ''some of our mer-
chants" that they wish to have the suffrage
question settled rightly, We suppose we all
wish to have this question, and indeed all
other questions. settled rightly. But there
are very many questions in which humanity
| is interested which do not come under the
cognizance of the supreme court of the Unit
ed States. and what shall be the qualifications
of voters in the several states is one Of these.

An English Election.

The latest foreign dispatches contain references
to the general parliamentary election which is in
progress throughout England. Out of the 65s
seats occupied in the house commons, at least
one-half will be contested. Estimating the cost
Of each contest at an average OF 100000 TO each
candidate Zone Yorkshire election, in which Mr..
Wilberforce was q candidate, cost 100000 to
the winning party, and n rly much to the
losers, and, assuming that only half the seats
will be contested--S2s seats at $4,000 for each
of two canjidases-the money that will be spent
in the British Islands. in less than three weeks,
on electioneering, will amount to Sl3, leo, 000.-
For the representation of the city of London, it
is declared by public advertisements in the LON
don papers, that Sl75, 900 had been subscribed TO
pay the expenses of the contest. The returns, as
far noticed, are favorable to the retention of
the present Palmerston ministry in Office.
