The Missouri Democrat, in discussing the
question whether State, after ratifying an
amendment to the National Constitution,
can reacind its ratification, advances two
uellconsidered and strong points. viz:
/. That, under the constitution, none
but affirmative votes are recognized. A
vote sgainst 1ati6cation amounts to no
moro than failure to vote at all and
obviously failure Of State to vote, after
it has once voted to ratify, cannot undo its
yota Of ratification.
2. That if, as tho repea1e1s contend, the
amendment were new compact between
sovereign states, thea it would require the
consent Of Ill the sovereign States to bind
ali, and not merely OF three-foustha- That
it is not, therefore, compact between
Bovereigns, but nero mods OF taking the
vote Of the people Of State on question
in manner authorized BY the NJ
! tional Constitution. That the vote
derives its validity, therefore,
from tho Constitution Of Tho United
States, and to he valid must be rendered
under the provisions OF that constitution.
That the Constitution Of the United States
provides for an affirmative vote only, any
other vote having no other eifect than mere
silence. That IN affirmative vote is nocss.
sarily counted By tie National Government
ns soon as rendered, in order to ascertain
whether the requisite number Of satos have
ratified. That, after being once given nni
counted for the amendment, the consGtu
tion contains no further authorization 10 TIL
State to Ict in tho matter, and that wha. i
may do. being thus wholly without authosit:
{ Of the National Constitution, is void unde
that instrument.

That Mr. Ba1nun's autobiography is one Of
the most popular Of American autobio-
graphical publications, and that he has
been encouraged, by the profits Of the first
issue, to rewEita sud republish the work,
are fncts that show that the American poo
pie, like Nr. Bride -Freduoa sawin-
"do believe
M %os{: ii: S,iS ~ :;is4 fasT perceive
It wonId be unfair to charge that Nj.
Darnum is in any peculiar or exceptional
seree representative Of Humbug,-i. e.,
Of the principle that tho world ikea to be
deceived, and will pay consciously for being
deceived, and that deception profits mora
than instruction.
We're MIR. Da1nuu, nt once a man Of sci
ence equal to Agnssiz md thestrical
manager equal to the lnte Burton, md had
be informed the world that hc would in
st1uct them in scientific truths, illustrating
his lessons by bona ,fde collection OF one
million animals, and had he invested IN this
course Of instruction and in the legitimate
drama tie cost Of his museum, hts woolly
horse, and South Sea mermaid, he would
bave failed again and again. One would
hardly suppose that The American people
would buy pure spring water At fifty cents
q pint, after chemical analysis Lad fully
shown that it was such, with no
other medicinal Ingredients than are
contained in every pint Of water
II Lake Michigan. Yet the success Of one
company formed fer selling tho water Of
common spring in Vermont was go great
that one or two companies have sincs been
formed, md are still extensively advertising
"Pure Vermont Spring Water" as q
remedy for cancers md other difficult
diseases, end are selling it at about tho
price Of good wine or alcohol.
Let no man, IS he values his peace, throw
himself athwnrt the path OF current popular
deceptions. Any such self-immolation
assumes TINT tho public would gladly b.cak
their idols if they were persuaded that they
were imposed ueon- But 1t forgets that no
nun will brook the imputation that he has
been imposed upon. With whomsoever
will politely deceive him he will lock arms
for Life; but against whomsoeyer uude-
ceives, and, in instruetiug, humiliates him,
he will reserve hostile firs, ready to break
forth whenever any pretext but the true
one ariscs fos an outbu1st. The safest way
is, Il one can't believe in humbug, to
treat it politely md let it havs its day.

pRAYIR as AZ OCCASION OF PALSY,

The people Of Cincinnati have expe-
nencei during the last few weeks revival
Of religion, the revival being under the
spiritual lead of the celebrated E. Pa5sou
Hammond. An unusual interest has at-
tended Ills ministrations. from the fact that,
in one Of his oratlous on the efficacy OF
prayer, lie stated that the Lord had ouce
paralyzed the tongue Of Universalist cler-
gnan 10 response to the prayers Of Pres
byterian minister. This statement called
out host Of qucstiouers, who demanded
the facts Of time, place, and circumstance.
hr. Hammond, therefore, obtained letters
from the reverend gentleman who had
made the prnyer, and also from his son.
The former Nev. II. C. Tisaer), now 90
years Of age, lives nj Ithaca, New York, and
the latter is pastor Of Presbyterian church
at Lockpo1t in tho ee1ne State. The two
statements are substantially the aane, as

Hr. Hammond wnB Immediately urged in

the kame way, but he took 10 notice Of the
1eqrest8 II this case Was miraculous
manifestation Of Divine power it was hardly
part OF the Divine economy to limit its ef

whole human family. He did not believe

The protection which ouf city charter

provokes the inquiry whether its provisions
relating to them were referred to CON-
suitteo Of gamblers in the Legislature be-
fore being adopted. Any private house in
Chicago not used as gambling he'll, may
be entered by the police on the sworn state
ment Of the humbleat citizen that mild
came exists for entering it. Bnt no
gambling honse can be entered by the po-
lice unless the Superintendent Of Police has
first reported in writing that there are good
grounds for believing it is kept as COM
mon gaming house, and Two or more honse-
tolders dwelling in Chicago, and not be-
longing to the police force, have made oath
in writing before one Of the Commissioners
Of Police that the premises aro commonly
reported to be kept as common gambling
house-in which case any Commissioner Of
Police may, by written order, authorize the
Superintendent or Deputy to enter upon
such premises Suppose stranger to the
city is heeeed at afaro-teble, and reports the

reveal TO Treasurer Spinner secret plan
Of his own discovery, whereby tho United
ststea can 1tsume specie payments without
any Specie. The discoycser' Is MI. har1
6euford, steward Of the Grand Duke Of
.Baden, and it il impossible to Say what les
Sons in fnancie.ing Mr.. seoaord may have
LEARNED in the course Of his stewardship
which it we're veil foz us To wot Of. Ho mny
have learned that it requires no 6nancier at
all, but merely cashier,to pay specie wheu
you hare got The specie but when you
haven't got any specie nt al, not so much as
pewter ninepeuce, then the resumption Of
specie payments is at once discovery in
science and work Of art.
General Spinner, in his unromantic way,
replies that this Is just the sort Of patent
night for Rothschild to bay into; since it
would be worth more to him than TO any
other person, and his financial acunen
would enable him to comprehend the plan
readily. General Spinner is usually sound,
hut We distsust his Judgment in this in
stance. We doubt if he would exhibit the
least capacity for understanding p!an for
resumiug specie payments without the
specie.
