Countinv the Cost.

Tho Detroit Frce Press thinks II highly
proper TO begin counting the cost OF the
Abolition party 10 the country. u re-
marks that IN times past, when the Gov
ernncnt was administered by Presidents
ADAMS, JACKSON, VAS BuRrN, HARRISON
PotK, TAYLOR, PIERCh aud BUCHANAN tue
expenses OF the nation were canVassed WIN
great care and dellbcraton. and limited 70
tho smallest sum possible. But II Is re-
mnrkable fact that since the advent to
power of the Republican party the word
economy has become obsolete We never
hear from the Republicans the objection
which CLAY md WKpsrER' aud their com
pcers. used Ia urge with such cioquence
that this or that bill should not be
passed because IL unnecessarily increased
the expenses of the Government and
the burthcns Of taxation on the pco-
pie. In those days public men often count
cd the cost 10 the people of the measures
they proposed, and more than one man was
ship-wrcckcd because he was reckless and
extravagant with the public money. But
the times have sadly changed. We never
hear the question of how much it VIII cost
stated by any ono belonging to the domi-
nant party. The thousand and one schemes
against the Treasury are received with M
vor and millions upon millions are appro-
priatcd without singlc thought of how
this money is TO be raised, or how many
must suffer for the actual neccssarlcs OF
life, because the Treasury Of the United
States must be filled To meet the expenses
of government.

TIE Unconstitutional Arnsuimeu,

1t seems TO he a t0regone conclusion
that the so-caliad constitutional amend
uent is to receive the sanction OF the
present Legislature. After being passed
BY both houses, it will have to be sub
mitted to the people Of the State for
ratification or rejection.
The subject has already been thor
oughly discussed by the ablest men in
the State, and we have nothing new to
urge concerning 1t Its. retrospective
operation is fact patcnt to the dullest
comprehension and is not denied by even
its most determined advocates 1t is
also the opinion of every lawyer OF any
degree of prominence in the State that
it possesses all the characteristics OF an
er post .fdct0 law and is therefore III vio'
lation of the constitution OF the United
States. And the existing constitution
of the State of West Virginia not only
prohibits in explicit terms the passage
of any er post factO law, but it also pro-
yides in the most solemn manner that
no amendment to the constitution shall
ever be adopted which by any shit or
device has any retrospective operation
or effect" This thing is fixed forever,
and auy amendment which in cOrpOrates
into the State constitution a feature
shiloh that cOnSt tuition expressly de-
clares shall HeUer be, i'll any event, OF by
any shift or device, incorporated therein,
wipes away and destroys the whole III
strument. We may abolish the present
constitution and adopt a new one il We
Will, but we cannot, under pTetenSe OF
amending the constitution, adopt pro-
vision which the organic law declares
shall never be adopted The people may
adopt a new constitution which shall
not prohibit amendments OF the Kind
proposed, but so long a. oar present con
stitution is III force the amendment 10"
before the legislature can never Ge IL
gally adopted 1t will be only waste pa
per and the special election held ior lis
ratification will be mere farce aud the
money so expended thrown away
But of course it will Ge passed, tor our
Legislature has never yet permitted an
opportunity OF trampltug upon tie con
stitution to pass by u2improvCd.

lied us to use his criticism as follows:
Judge THoMPsoN's Living Forces is a
success. 1t is decided success. 1t is
wonderful specimen of analysis hut not
less so in its synthesis. Perhaps mover
before has there been such a taking
apart of the elements and forces Of ma
ture and life, and seeing what each is in
itself, and thereby the synthesis of put
ting them together to reconstruct an in
tellectual and moral system of the uni
verse. He proceeds by direct processes
to accomplish what Bishop BUTLER in
his Analogy, confessedly one of the
greatest books of any age, sought to at
tain by the indirect and therefore not
wholly satisfactory process of analogue
reason. He has entered new region Of
thought, but the new terms necessarily
used in the work are so clearly defined
that there is not much chance of mis-
taking the authors meaning. He vii.
