for the views of either President WASHING
TON or President JOHNSON touching the
imprudence of making too many and too tre-
quent alterations of the fundamental and
supreme law of the National Government.
They have, apparently, got into their heads
the conceit that they were not sent to Wash
ington to legislate for the ordinary and cur
rent affairs of the county, or, as President
JOHNSON expresses it, "those more important
and urgent matters, legislation upon which is
essen tial for the restoration of the Union, the
peace of the country, and the prosperity of
the people," but that their real and only
mission is, to totally abolish the Con-
stitution of 1887, and make an entirely and
bran new one for the nation. The peoples
representatives are, in that respect, entirely
in error. If the Constitution really requires
any further amendments than have already
been accomplished, there will be time enough
to propose them when the Union is COM
pletely restored, and the people Of all the
States are in a situation to consider and
decide upon them. In the meanwhile, there
are gpressing questions OF taxation, finance,
commerce, internal improvements, the tariff,
and the like, demanding action at the hands
of Congress; and the people everywhere no
doubt, will be greatly more pleased to have
these matters attended to with due prompt
ness and deliberation, than to have their
minds agitated and the final restoration of the
peace and unity of the country postponed by
propositions to amend the Constitution, which
are either not needed at all, or are of doubtful
exDpdiencv

Our New Judges.

THE selection of Hon. JOSEPH ALLISON to
occupy the position of President Judge of the
Court of Common Pleas, in the room of Hon.
OSWALD THOMPSON, recently deceased,
strikes us as a particularly happy one. Judge
ALLIsoN's long connection with the Common
Pleas renders him entirely familiar with the
important business of that Court. He brings
to the discharge of his official duties great in
telligence. indefatigable industry, unquestion-
able integrity, and legal erud,tion of more
than usual brilliancy. He is a fit man to as
sumo the ermine that falls unspQtted from the
shoulders OF Judge THOMPSON.
The vacancy created by the promotion OF
Judge ALLISON has been filled by the ap-
pointment of WILLIAM S. PIERCE, ESQ.,, a
we'll known and greatly respected member of
the Philadelphia Bar. Mr.. PIERCE has spent
his lite in professional service, and is verv
familiar with civil practice. We imagine that
he has peculiar talents for administering JUS
tice. He is cool, collected, and scarcely ever
throwpapff his guard by any sudden develop
ment. Ne is deeply read in the law, especially
that of Pennsylvania, and we think will make
a most admirable Judge. We are gratit1ed to
know that the great loss we sustained in the
| death OF Judge THOMPSON was so promptly
and so cIeditably filed.

South Carolina Redivivus.

MAJoR-GENEBAL DANIEL K. SICKIES, now
in command of the Department of South
Carolina, has recently issued an order which
will create sensation among the naughty
aristocrats of that pestilent State. In a calm
and demonstrative way he disposes of the
question so long discussed and so little under
stood-the equality of the white and black
races in the eyes of the law. The first state
ment he makes is terse and concise, but every
word is full OF meaning :-"All laws shall be
applicable alike to all inhabitants. No person
shall be held incompetent to sue, make COM
plants, or to testify, because of color or
caste" This sounds like democracy of the
broadeSt character. IL would seem to mean
that the cOiored man was to be elevated,
and the poor man entitled to all
his franchises. In furtherance of his
plan, he urges all persons living within the
limits Of the State to apply themselves as
siduously to the development of the agricul-
tural resources of the department, promising
every protection which the military arm OF
the Government can supply. This is admira-
bly, adapted to produce a feeling of security
upon the part of those who are really anxious
to reconstruct the South, and bring about the
prosperity that prevailed before bad men
urged the two sections idto o bloody and
ruinous conflict. On the other hand he
clearly ntimates that persons not disposed to
labor for their own support, whether they be
white or black, will be dealt with as their
contumacV may seem to deserve. 1t is his
intention to see that the system of serflom
shall not be exchanged for that of paupersm.
Every able-bodied man will be required to
do his portion in regaining the position lost by
rebellion and crime. This is common sense
view Of the delicate question. Every one
will be compelled to earn his bread by the
sweat of his brow. The masters, who lorded
it so proudly, must gain their livelihood by
some honest means, while the recently un-
shackled slaves, born to new and nobler life,
viii be required to prove their capabIlity to
enjoy the freedom which has been bought at
such fearful expenditure of blood and trea-
sure. General SIoKLEs' order abolishes AL
inequalities of punishment, and makes cor
poral punishment, unless in specially provided
cases, a criminal Offense.
The order will change the aspect of affairs
in South Carolina, where the task-masters'
whip and the thong of the brutal overseer have
so long held sway. But the chivalry must
acknowledge that the world moves, and that
barbarties and brutalities must give way be-
fore the march of an advancing civilization.
Hoary-headed outrages are not to be tolerated
in civilized age and among Christian people.
General SICKLEs is the very man to grapple
with the hydra-headed monster of slavery,
tor he has the ability to understand it's venom,
and the nerve to boldly attack it in its den.
The paper will repay careful perusal, aud
| if its suggestions are properly carried out,
there is no doubt OF the success of General
J ST, KI,Es' mission.

p We need hardly call attention TO the arti-
Gle on our first page. The tables have been pre-
pared with care, and with much labor, in order
10 give a condensed and clear abstract Of the
present condition of our agriculture and COM
merce abroad, where very incorrect notions
about us exist. judging from tie reports which
come to us from the old countries, they enjoy
there q blissful state of ignorance regarding the
present condition and progress of this kingdom.
Even our Consuls abroad, particularly the one
stationed at London. need special enlightenment,
but it must be ~remembere that they seldom see
any paper from this group but the stereotyped
Gazette, and their ignorance is therefore suff-
GENTLY accounted for. We have several ex-
changes in England, and it is barely possible
the Bishop of Oxford or the London Times may
one of these days learn that the natives of Ha-
wall do export something besides sandal-wood
and idols. At all events, we shall seek to
remove their ignorance. if possible. The only
thing respecting which there will be difference
Of opinion, is the estimate Of sugar for 1866.
Our own opinion is that the crop will be about
"a 900 900 pounds, which will be about the
same percentage of increase as shown for 1865
over the previous year. We stated last week
that q it would probably not be less than twenty
millions" But several new mills, that COM
mence work this year were not then taken into
account, and We have been surprised to find the
number of mills actually working SO large as it
proves to be.
We print a larger edition than usual (about
900 copies) and will be able TO supply our
patrons with extra copies for mailing. One
newspaper, with annual trade statistics, is worth
more to merchants abroad than n CARLOAD of
circulars or letters.
