A Needed Work,

Mr.. HOWE yesterday Introduced in the
Senate resolution directing the Clerk of
that body to prepare for publication a
volume containing the colonial charters, and
the various State Constitutions of each State
OF the United States, together with all
amendments thereto at any time in force,
ARRANGING the same in chronological order for
each Sta e.
Every person who has had occasion to
investigate the questions now agitating the
country. must have telt the want OF work
such as Is contemplated above; and we have
often wondered that some enterprising pub
Usher had not before now occupied the field.

An ImnoItnnt Measure.

Mr.. YATES, OF Illinois, introduced bill yes
terday in the Senate for the publication OF the
ratification Of the Constitutional amendment.
II provides that official notice of the adop-
ton of the amendment by the States shall be
sent to the Secretary OF the Senate and to
the Clerk of the House OF Representatives,
instead of to the Secretary OF State, as here
tofore required; and thai, ,,upon receipt by
these two officers of official notice from three
fourths OF the States that any amendment
has been adopted, the President of the Senate
and the Speaker OF the House Of Represen-
tatives shall forthwith cause publication of
the same 10 be made in the newspapers
authorized by law to promulgate the laws,
with their joint certificates, chat such amend
ment or amendments are valid to all intents
and purposes as a part Of the Constitution OF
the United States.
The object of this bill is to leave the deter
mination of what are States in the Union,
capable Of acting upon a Constitutional
amendment, to officers chosen by Congress,
and not TO the Secretary of State. We think
a more direct and satisfactory method of
reaching the same end would be for Congress
itself to openly declare what number of
States now constitutes the "three- fourths"
necessary to adopt an amendment to the Con
stitution, and then direct the officer or Off
GERS whom it may designate for that purpose,
on the receipt of notice from that requisite
number of States of the adoption of the
amendment, to make official publication
thereof 1t is matter for Congress alone to
determine, and that body should do it in an
open and direct manner.

jefferson and Berkeley Counties put Into West
Virginia.

II will be remembered that the Legislature
of Virginia, just before adlourning, passed q
bill appropriating ten thousand dollars TO test
the legality of the transfer of Jefferson and
Berkeley counties to West Virginia in case
the United States Senate should pass the Joint
resolution for that purpose which had tnen
passed the House of Representatives. In the
United States Senate, on Monday, MIR. Clark
called up-the Joint resolution TO give the con-
sent of Congress TO the annexation OF the
counties of Berkeley and Jefferson, belonging
to Virginia, to the State of West Virginia.
Mr. Riddle moved to amend by adding a
proyiso that the question be determined by q
vote of the people of the counties.
Mr.. Clark said the people of the counties
had already voted in favor of the annexation.
Mr.. Riddle said that out Of six hundred
voters i'll one of the counties, only thirty voted
There were thirteen hundred voters in the
county now, and out Of these, twelve hundred
and fifty were in favor OF the proposition
which he himself presented.
MI Clark said ii did not appear that there
was any means adopted 10 prevent a full vote
being taken when the vote was taken. The
men who were then in the rebel army ought
not to have vote now.
Mr.. Riddle claimed that many Of those who
went, We're forced.
Mr. Clark said if that was so he was
anxious TO put them into State from which
they would be less apt to be forced into the
rebel army hereafter Rebels ought TO be
thankful enough TO be allowed to live under
the Government, without pretending TO con
troll 1t.
Mr.. Pomeroy asked Mr.. Riddle if he would
accept as an amendment TO his proviso that 1t
be submitted to the people without distinction
of color. Laughter
Mr.. Riddle said he would not
Mr.. Riddles proviso was not adopted.
The Joint resolution was then passed-yeas,
