Proposed Constitutional Amendment.

The Joint Committee on Reconstruction,
which consists OF six senators snd nine
Representatives, have agreed on the follow
ing Constitutional Amendment, which has
been reported to the Senate, ly Senator
FeSsenden, of Maine:
ARTICLE Representatives and Direct
Taxes shall be apporti0ned among The sew
eral States which may be included W thin
the Union according TO their respective
numbers, counting the whole number Of
persons in each State, excluding Indians
not taxed: Prorided. That lcbsuersr zee
electro franchise shall te icViel or 0'ri -
ed IA any State, on Gccohnf of race or color.
al persons OF such race or color S4aT Be
e.rclude,f rom tie bass or representation.
This amendment places the question OF
Suffrage In the people OF the several states.
but saws that each shall abide by its own
decision. and If they DO not give the right
OF suffrage 10 the blacks they shall no- Dee
represented by that portion of the popula-
ton, as the basis Of political power. Either
count the Blacks as men or beasts. IT the
latter, do not ask the other States 10 count
them more This Of course il adopted in
the Constitution, will lessen the present
electoral and Congressional vote IN the
Southern States, depriving them OF the
three-hiths representation of The colOred
which they have in theQast en-
joyed. This is proper and reasonable
amendment. Placed in this position. The
question ofState pride and the fear Of los
inc influence in the National councils. will
in process OF time accomplish the result,
