THE AMENpMENT.

The Philadelphia Ledger says there
seems to be hardness on the part of
the State Governors in calling their Leg
islatures together for the consideration
of the recently-passed amendmentto the
Constitution. The Tennessee Legislature
has been called to meet in extra session for
its consideration on July 4, and Governor
HAwLEY, Of Connecticut, has transmit
ted it to the Legislature of that State,
now in session. The Governor of Massa-
chusetts has referred the question OF call
ing an extra session to his Executive
council. Generally, however, the State
Executives are said to be opposed to
calling extra sessions, and it is said that
the Governors of New Jersey Ohio,
New York, Maryland, Indiana, Ken
lucky and Delaware have declined to do
So 1t seems highly probable that no
decision will be passed upon the amend
ment in many States, until next winter.

After several very close votes, the duty

RxIT yIM LAME.

JIM LANE has closed life Of violence
with a violent death. He left Washing
ton complaining of nervous debility,
went TO Leayenworth and sent a bullet
crashing through his brain. The cause
of that nervous debility resided in the
mind, and became burden so intolera-
bic as to defy all means of relief save
death itself LANES career has been
stormy. He was one Of that class of I'M
fortunate persons who appear to think
that the normal condition of mankind is
war, and That the preachings of contra
~ doctrine, are bnt the croakings Of
cowardice. Sooner or later the fatal
deception breaks away, and, in too many
cases, bnt to leave the victim stranded
forever on the barren rocks of ruin. In
this case, the life and the death are sin
gnlarly in harmony. The rage of pas
sion is seldom succeeded by calm re-
pose. Exhaustion Of the vital powers
requires the same recuperative agency
that produces il. To bring the nerves
M to the wanted tone, there
must come the excitement the
excess of which brought on the debility.
The drunkard, when descended TO the con-
dition Of mania pota requires the slim
ulus of the old burning dranght to ar
rest his fight to the grave. If be does
not die drunk, he dies Of drunkenness.
And so, if man who has passed his
life in one long intoxication of passion,
does not die in passion, he dies of it.
The experience of many men under
whose eye this article may fall. will re-
member that quite all the desparados
they have ever known, If now dead, died

too extreme to be applied to them. He

GRINNELLISM.

The way the heroism of GRISSELL is
celebrated is curious, if not instructive.
A Radical paper says:
Mr.. GRIsNELL picked up piece of the
cane with which Gen, ROUSSEAU whip
ned him. and said he proposed to present
Il 10 Mrs GRIYNELL.
A meeting of his special friends passed
the following resolutions

OVERWHELMINGLY URcoEsTITU-
TIONAL.

The Supreme Court Of Pennsylvania,
Internationally, of course, has dealt a
savage blow at the ribs of Tennessee
Radicals. II has decided the act Of Con-
gress of March Sd, 1864, DISTINGUISHING
deserters and non-reporting drafted men,
10 be unconstitutional The decision
also operates against the disfranchise-
uent act passed by the Legislature of
Pennsylvania, thus settling the question
and establishing the fact that citizens Of
Pennsylvania cannot be deprived of their
political rights without trial and convic-
ton for crime.
The Harrisburg Patriot and Union
says Both the Federal Constitution
and our State Constitution declare en-.
phatically and undisguisedly that no ex
post fdeto law shall be passed The act
Of Congress Of March 3, 1864 and the
act of the Legislature signed June, 1866,
were both az post tdcto, inasmuch as
they were retrospective and undertook
10 punish for crimes previously commit
ted Again, no provision was made IN
either act for the trial Of accused per
sons previous to the infection Of the
penalties and hence, in that, they we're
in conflict with both Constitutions, which
are perfectly clear in demanding that a
fair and impartial trial and conviction of
crime shall preceds the infiction ofpun-
ishnent or penalties.

Prussian-Austrian Affairs : Attitude Of
