y WORD OF CAUTION. Since con-
ventions are to be ordered in the
Southern States by the commanding
generals instead of by the Legisla-
lures, we sincerely hope that those
who have urged the policy of inaction,
on the ground that there would be
dlshonor i'll complying with the re-
qulrements of the Sherman bill, will
review their opinions AMI change
their advice? for it is manifest if the
legislatures could not provide for the
elections without SEEMING TO sanction
the lnlqulties of the Sherman- Shella-
barSer scheme, and without seeming
to consent to their own DEGRADATION.
that the people cannot vote in such
elections without giving the same
sanction and incurring the same de
@radatlon. The eases are precisely
parallel, and if the arguments against
the propos .ction by the Lcgisla-
tjrc were v ii anything, it would be
iatal to all hope Of success ut the
polls. 1t is of the first Importance
that nothing shall be said to discour-
age, but everything to encourage,
TIE fullest possible vote on the part
OF those most concerned in the vel
tare OF the State. Every man of the
class who have hitherto controlled.
allowed 70 vote under The ac of Con-
8ress, should be brought to feel that
so far from dishonoring himself by
casting that vote, it is his most i'm
peratlve, most momen,ous. and most
sacred duty, not only TO vote himself,
but to use all the influence ne can
exert to induce as many as possible
OF the newly enfranchiscl to vote
with him. Ii any man in or out of
public position has the hardilood to
talk now about ''inaction,' '.pas-
slvlsm, accepting dishonor," and
such nonsense and rubbish. we hope
he will be rebu1ked into silence and
shame by those who are TOO wise to
be imposed on by pretentious imbe-
clllty, and too honorable to be de-
celved by an atfectation Of superior
sensibility to honor.

AZ IMPORTANT QUESTION. MaSsa-
chusctts has at length ratified the
pending constitutional amendment,
which makes, we believe, the whole
number Of States that have ratified it
twenty. One more State is wanted
to make the required three-fourths
OF the twenty-seven States now con-
stltuhng the Government Of the
United States. Why cannot We have
this State right away, and thus have,
before the adjournment of the pre-
sent session Of Congress, this great
amendment proclaimed part of the
Constitution, SO that the rebel States
may be at once returned, in fulfilling
the conditions imposed upon them?

dating as the politician who called on
