Now, fellow-citizens, / ask you as men OF
sense, | ask any honest aad truthful LAWYER
OF any party, 10 say whether it is possible
for the mind of man to conceive any DIFF
ference, IN principle, between the amended
constitution Of Missouri and the amended
Constitution of Tennessee and the fran
ehise law enacted under it. The one is
just as unconstitutional as the other Is
not the right or privilege of voting in an
election for State or national rulers Just as
great right or privilege as that Of hold
ing Office To one who understands and
properly appreciates it, the right or privi-
lege is infinitely greater. Voting is
an act of sovereignty or government. II
Is right exceedingly limited in
all other goyernments save our own.
Very few, even Of the most enlightened
citizens of Europe, possess IL and, though
we are making 1t so common that il NAV
become contemplate, very few Of those
who have been accustomed to enjoy il are
willing to give II up. In the test-oath case
the Supreme Court of the United States
expressly held that 'fhe difficulties created
by the constitution OF Missouri mus, be
regarded as penalties They constitute

they say that imprisonment may consist in
the deprivation or Suspension of political
rights. And in still another, they say "that
under the power the most fragrant invasion
of private rights, in periods Of excitement,
may be enforced, and individuals, and even
whole classes. may be deprived of civil and
political rights" All the reasoning Of their
fearless and able opinions fully sustains the

Some two or three months ago 4 reso>
luton was INTRODUCED into the City Coun-
cil looking to the establishment Of free
schools for the colored children of the
city, on the same plan and basis as those
for the white children Ii was referred
to the School Committee Of the Council
aud Board Of Education They took the
matter in hand, and reported their con-
clusions back to the Council, which
adopted them, ana at the last meeting
passed a law upon the subject, under
which colored schools viii be opened on
or before the beginning of the usual
scholastic year ~
This movement shows the feeling OF
our citizens towards the cOlored people,
and their active interest in securing for
them the blessings of knowledge Since
the negro has been enfranchised, the
necessity that he should be educated is
imperative, and the city government has
acted wisely in adopting the measure.
1t may be objected that it is adding
to the tax burdens Of the city weight
which it will be difficult to carry but it
must be remembered that TO make the
negroes an element of wealth they must
be trained in the ways Of virtue, sobriety
OIL onl -, lit Of 1nI try
frugality and selfreliance Though they
may not now be able to return to the
corporation, in taxes, the amount thus
expended for their benefit, it will be a
cheap expenditure to the whites in con
vincing the colored people of our justice
and kindly disposition towards them, and
Of 0ur desire to see them elevated in the

When some one asked Wells, of Louis

held four aces, but Flanders had four
Jacks and bowie-knife, and | had to
cave
The Louiville Journal says Brownlow
holds the four jacks and the bowie-kn
in the pending election III this State, and
thinks if the bowie-knife could be taken
from him, Etheridge would beat him.
The evidence is accommodating that
Brownlow and his party are cutting
themselves with the bowie knife. The
Franklin county business is very ugly,
and metaphorically speaking, drew other
blood beside old man Browns. General
Order No ,, turning over the Governor
guard to Gen Cooper, who, from his high
standing as a man Of sense, as well as
courage, is expected to use it with mod
Grafton and discretion, shows clearly that
the +" Commander-in-C Chief is somewhat
distrustful of its operations thus far.
That STEP and the threatened arrest of
Capt Hickman and his company, proves
that political bowel knives sometimes are
as sharp at che handle as in the blade, es-
pecially when in hands as awkward as
they are malicious.

la his Cleveland speech Secretary
Fletcher stated, in extenuation OF the
enormous expenditures of the Fletcher
Brownlow administration, that the
hospital for the insane had been carried
on during the Var mostly on credit, and
that even the nurses and servants for
this institution had to be paid in 1865 for
services in 1861" 1t viii be remem>
berei that Secretary Fletcher Instituted
a comparison between the present adj
ministration and that Of Gov. Harris in
1859 and 1860, to show that the former
has been very economical admmistra-
ton under the circumstances The Sec
rotary has chosen this standard, and ii
his pet administration shall suffer by the
comparison he has provoked, he has only
himself to blame. Let as test the merits
Of these respective administrations in
regard to the public charities During
the six years over which, according to
Secretary Fletcher, the charities of this
administration are spread, the expendi-
lures in this behalf have been as fol-
