The Constitution of the
United States was adopted
by the Convention on the l7th
OF September, 1857, yet was
not ratified by the States un-
til May, 1870, the last being
Rhode Island and North Car
olina, in November, l789.-
1t is now asserted by Con-
gress that the ratification of
an amendment must be i'm
mediate by three-fourths of
the State Legislatures. No
more boiling, absence or in
action on the part Of the mi
nority, a majority of those
voting shall be considered
sufficient. How readily the
people seem to acquicsce in
these kingly strides to abso-
lutte power. Congress has
now but to command to be
obeyed. Our Republican form
Of government has been de-
stroyed by the Republican
party,

The difference between
Grant and the Radicals seems
one of law.
What Grant objects to is the
Radical tenure of Office law.
What the Radicals object to
is Grants brother-in-law.

Another Blow at Naturalirat,ou,

Just before every election the Ne
gro Suffrage Radicals profess the
greatest love for all the population
of foreign birth-and particularly
are they fond of the Irish adopted
citizens. They are button holed on
every street corner, and at every
point along the Railroad, and at the
iron furnaces by tho Radicals, and
are cajoled and flattered. 1t is USE
less for us to say to our Irish friends,
or to any other foreigner, that the
friendship of these Negro Suffrage
ties is all sham. Now we have
additional proof in the fact that
naturalization Is to be prohibited by
Congress, in New York. About
three weeks ago the following bill
passed the lower House of Congress,
by vote of "a to "a;
"Be it enacted, &C., That the su.
preme Court, the Circuit Courts, and
the Courts of Oyer and Terminer in
the City and County of New York,
and the Superior Court of the City
of New York, shall not, hereafter,
have power to admit any alien to
be q citizen" 1.
This is a foul blow, and shows
the hatred of these Jacobin leaders
tor our naturalized citizens. Allow
every niger 10 vote, but down with
the foreign-born whites. Such is
Radical equality and justice. We
hope our Irish friends will remem-
bcr this when they are approached
by the Radical flatterers.

A BREvE TB1sR GlBIa That was
Ia courageous Irish. girl who seeu-
red the arrest Of two burglars I'M
New York. Their noise partially
awakened her and while "half
asleep" she threw her hand over
the side of the bed, when it struck
something cold and clammy that
clutched It tightly. Instantly she
was wide awake, and suddenly
peered toward the object that had
sent her blood chilled through her
veins. Aided by the gas which
had been feebly burning all night,
she discovered, coolly lying on a
lounge, within two feet of her, q
hideOus looking fellow, and over
in the corner of the room, a com
panion of like revolving aspect.
The situation was enough to give
most men the nightmare, avoiding
any reference as to how it would
affect women in general. Ellen
Flinn-for that is her name, jump
ed from her couch. collared the
first rascal with q vice-hke grip,
and began to shake him soundly,
His brother thief soon came to his
rescue, and laying his brawny
hands upon her, and holding her
with all the strength he possessed,
warned her, IF you scream again
we'll choke you to DEATH" at the
time pulling from his pocket a
handkerchief intending to carry
his threat into execution but, af-
ter a sharp struggle, she broke
away from them, and sending anoth-
er scream through the house, the
inmates began rushingdOwn stairs
when one Of the rascals rushed up
to her and struck her a terrible
blow on the nose. Both of them
then fed into the street, and were
soon after arrested.

SINGULAR DEATHs.-A family by
the name of Martin, who recently
moved into house in the upper
part of the city, ON Garland street,
have been visited by a singular
md most appalling calamity. At
IN early hour, yesterday evening,
distressing cries were heard pro
.eeding from their residence, which
Don attracted the attention of the
learest neighbors, who excitedly
fastened to the place only to wit
less a scene of deep distress. MIR.
md Mrs. Martin were living across
she threshold of one of the front
loors, as if they had fallen toward
.ach other, Mr.. Martins feet be-
NO IN the porch aud his lwife's
in the room. Their family were
gathered about them. The little
3nes could explain nothing, and an
Investigation only proved that the
fallen ones were dead with nc
marks Of Siolence-upon them. We
