The visible Admixture FolIy.


A law passed for the purpose Of
limiting the franchise would not or
dinarily be pronounced the work
of a Legislature strictly democratic.
Restricting the right of suffrage
and limiting its exercise to n small
er number than have heretofore ex-
ercised that right, would seem to
indicate aristocratic rather than
democratic tendencies, And yet
the party which in name only is the
Democratic party of the country,
has passed three DISTINGUISHING acts
during the last winter, by which,
citizens who have visible admix.
ture of African blood, soldiers who
give evidence Of having for the
Union cause shed their blood, and
students, who present proofs Of
more than usual intelligence, are
practically cut off from all partici-
patton in the o.called democratic
Government.
This interference with the rights
guaranteed to them by the Consti-
tuition, of one class OF citizens, has
happily been prevented by the time
ly interposition Of the Supreme
Court. When ono citizen is re-
strained of his personal liberty, he
has the right at all times to appeal
to the Courts, and much more when
whole classes are deprived of their
constitutional rights, should this
power to obtain redress exist.
When the Democratic Legisla-
ture undertook to rob citizens of
the right of suffrage, and at the
same time attempted to take from
them the right of appeal to the
highest courts, they attempted a
little too much. TO knock a man
down is bad enough, but 10 tie him
down by binding hands and feet is
infinitely worse. To disfranchise
or decitizenize men, and then de-
prive them of access to the courts,
was laying it on a little too thick
Vaulting, or rather a revolving, am
bition has Ger leaped itself.
In their mortifying discontinue
the DISTINGUISHING Democracy have
our profound sympathies, They
have brought upon themselves all
the odium attached to the passage
of this Infamous act, and yet not re-
duced the Republican majority by
one solitary vote. Instead Of dis
franchising four thousand citizens
by this visible admixtuae law they
have not disfranchised one citizen.

- Shoddy is the subject Of a
sketch in q British journal. 1t
states that in 1853 the first attempt
was made in England to utilize
such waste material as soft, wooden
rags, worn out carpets, hannels,
guernseys, stockings, &c, After
ward the shoddy machines were SO
modified as to utilize what is called
''mungo," which consists of the
threadbare broadcloths and clip
pings of other woolen cloths Of
fine quality, and is brought from
all countries where such cloths are
worn. At present, shoddy forms
about one-fifth Of the weight of the
woolen and worsted manufactures
of Yorkshire. Shoddy and mungo
mixed with wool are made into
cheap broadcloths and material for
ladies eapes and mantles, for Peter
shams, pilots, pea Jackets and blank
cts, They enter into the compost
ton of felted cloth used for over
coats, carpets, table covers, and
similar articles. It is said the trade
could not be carried on without
shoddy and mungo, and that the
amounts consumed yearly ranges
from 70,000,000 TO S0,000,000
pounds.
