Alao, Section 10 Of Article o
which is ~ follows
The credit Of the State shall not
be pledged or loaned In aid Of any
person. association or corporation,
nor shall the State hereafter become
a stakeholder IN any corporation or
association.
Also, that part of section 20, arti.
Gle u, which %prcscribes the oath Of
Office to be taken by all Stateoniccrs,
and which isin the words following 4;
That | have never, as n member
of any convention, voted Tor or
signed any ordinance Of secession ,
that ! have never been q member of
the State Legislature that voted for
acall for any Convention that passed
any such ordinance.
The President also directed that
that portion of the ordinances con-
tanned in tho Constitution from sec
tons 4 to Is, of article No. ID, in
elusive, shall not be considered as
constituting any part of the Consti-
tuition.
II will also be perceived, that
many Of those Objectionable features
of the Constitution of 1868, against
which the people of the State &C
justly complained, and which led to
the rejection of that instrument, at
the ballot-box, have been extracted
from the body of the Constitution
and are to be voted upon separately
at the November election. In refer
ence to the clause prohibiting tn,
faith ofthe State from being pledged
and which is to be voted on sepa
} ratcly, the undersigned express N,
opinion.
The adoption of the Constitution
Invested of the DISTINGUISHING claus
es above copied, may now be re
J garded as n fixed fact,--the Radicu
. Republicans, who framed the instru
9 mcnt, having pledged themselves t
I vote against these odious provisions
/, the Conservative Republican
!. having given a similar pledge--an
the people of the State, general
y having signi6cd n Willingness, und,
n the circumstances, to take the Coz
stitution, thus amended, as the flu
'e damental law ofthe State. Althous
it ia true, that there are some 9th
Of provisions Of the constitution viii
are Objectionable, and which
ar would have been pleased to ha
ar seen designated for a separate vo,
IN yet recurring to our dcplorable &C
a dition as a people, and considiri
Ii the whole situation" VIC deem
is fortunate that VIC shall have for {
organic law, even this Radical CC
stitution, shorn of its prominent
OF ormities.
