the State; yet the result was comparatively fruit.
less. An association Of private individuals had
been organized for similar purpose, and doubt
less they, too, had used every exertion to secure
their object, but so far as he had been informed,
their efforts were likewise fruitless Doubtless
there was cause FOR this. 1t might exist abroad
or at home, but If we have not sufficient attrac-
tions for tile European immigrant, Is 1t not our
duty to cast our eyes around u5-at home here
in America and hold out such inducements to
the farmers of the North and West, as would bring
them, with their capital, into our mdstf Those who
live on the line OF the Charlotte Railroad have been
struck with the large number OF persons, generally
farmers OF limited means, who daily arrive on
prospecting tour through the South. Already q
considerable number Of this hardy and enter
prisIng class were in our midst, and there was no
reason why. extending the right hand OF fellow
ship to thep and holding out liberal encourage
ment to their friends and neighbors at home, we
might not obtain an accession OF agricultural
strength which would secure to Us much that we
seek from the foreigner. Pennsylvania, NEW Jer-
sey and New York were already li0crally repre-
sentcd among the farmers Of South Carolina, and
thousands Of others would doubtless follow, but
for the expense OF travelling and difficulty Of
TRANSFORMATION. These drawbacks must be re.
moved. and when the path is clear, the country
will be flied with population thrifty, indus
trious and influential, because they will commu.
ncate by example the secret OF successful cu!.
:ure. They will be practically identified with the
SOIL and being so, thus will remain in our midst,
and work out with US the problem Of our future
welfare.
These suggestions are made in the hope tsa
the convention will take some action upon
branch Of the subject which seems to have oeen
ignored.

agreed with the remarks Of the preceding speaker.
His experience with immigrants, secureu oy nls
own exertions, had not been satisfactory, aud he
believed that what was true OF tlie Individual

CONSTITUTIONAL CHANGES IN VERMONT.
The people OF Vermont to-day are engaged In
voting for delegates to q State Convention which
will meet at Montpelier the eighth OF June next,
to approve or reject the amendments to the State
Constitution, which were proposed by the late
Council OF Censors. The propositions will be voted
upon by the Convention separately, and such as
receive majority in that body will become part OF
the State Constitution. The points OF the several
proposed amendments are as follows-
Article forbds the Legislature to create or to
enlarge or diminish the powers Of corporations, by
special acts. except for municipal purposes.
Article provides for biennial sessions OF the Le-
is, and for corresponding change from one year to
two years iii the term OF service from State and
county officers, and OF Senators and town Repre-
Article provides that the Legislature may by law
provide Tor the hling of vacancies in the olCe OF
Senator or town Representative.
Article provides that the Judges OF the Supreme
Court snall be appointed by the Governor by and
with the consent OF the Senate and for the term OF
six years, one-third of them being appointed once
in two years. In case Article is adopted and Art-
Gle is rejected, it is then proposed to make the
term OF judicial service two years instead Of one,
at present.
Article provides that women may vote with no
other restrictions than those imposed on men.
Article provides that i'm the year 1850, and in
every tenth year thereafter, the Senate may by a
vote OF two-thirds of its members propose amend
ments 10 the Constitution, which, IL concurred in
by majority OF the members of the House of Re-
personalities shall be entered on the journals OF
uObn hOuses anu 10 Jne next GeHeral AS
sembly and published in the newspapers OF the
State. III the said next General Assembly shall by a
majority OF the members of each house concur In
the proposals OF amendment, or any OF them, then
the General Assembly are to submit the amend
ments SO concurred in to direct vote OF the free
men; and such OF the proposed amendments as shall
receive majority OF the votes OF the freemen voting
thereon shall become part OF the Constitution OF
the State. The House OF Representatives is in
vested with the power Of impeachment, by vote OF
tWothrds OF its MEMBERS and the 43d article OF the
present Constitution, providing for a Council OF
Censors, is abrogated.
The FIRST and second of these proposed amend
ments are dictated ny sound statesmanship, and il
is to be hoped that they will both be adopted. The
9th, we imagine, is defeated in advance

FRENCH paper complains bitterly OF the present
fashions. According to it the laws OF taste have
been repealed and all is in confusion. Women are
such slaves to fashion that they adopt all sorts Of
ugly and ruinous trappings II the autocrats OF the
scissors and thimbe insisted on dressing them in
busters they would not murmur; some seven or
eight hundred francs would be spent on a costume
which, when the fancy for it had passed on, would
at least serve to wipe the dishes. This would be
something for many Of the useless aduncts to dress
are useless when the rage for them is over. Bon
nets are worn which do not cover the head
or shield the face from DUST sun and wind. The
improbable and impossible braids OF hair worn with
these bonnets deceive no one, and do no good TO
any one but the hardresser Crinoline has, indeed,
entirely disappeared, but in It's stead we have
starched petticOats with puffs balloonngs, perpen-
dcular trimmings, horizontal trimmings, ETC., to
bewidering extent. Little plates poised on the fore
head serve as hats and broad ribbons are twisted
round the neck, in consideration OF which excess
the ends OF the sash curtailed. Skirts are not
worn long enough to display the elegance OF train
or short enough to be convenient for walking. But
as regards convenience, great novelties are pro-
missed for travelling and seaside costumes. Such
notifications are to be made in feminine attire that
school-boy out for the holidays will, 1t seems, be
the fashionable model.

SILLY SUSAN.

SUSAN B. ANTHONY came very near making a
fool of herself the other day, at a woman's
suffrage convention in New York. That she
should be guilty of doing SO on general
principles will perhaps surprise no one who
is familiar with her vagaries, bat that she
should have done SO in the way she did will
surprise many who have heretofore given her
credit for little common sense and fair
appreciation of simple justice On the occa-
sion referred to, Susan undertook to cham
pion the cause of certain female doctor of
this city who recently figured in our columns
because of her refusal to pay the same amount
of tax as is exacted by the Government from
a man who makes his living by prescribing
physic for the ailing. Miss Anthony, by way
of encouragement to the rebellious doctress,
declared that she hadn't rendered her tax
account, and didn't propose to do so. eff
they want to put me in Jail, she added, "Ill
60. haven't any property to attach except
the dress Anna Dickinson gave me on my
birthday" If such is the case, and it would
not be considered impertinent on our part, we
should like to know what has become of the
5000 ''nest egg" which the sepulchral Anna
deposited in the pocket of Susan's semi-cen-
tennial birthday gown, as well as of sundry
other gifts which the latter received on the
occasion of turning her first half century
withou the aid and comfort of husband
Miss Anthony's silly remarks on the subject
of taxation are about on par with all the
balderdash which women of her ilk rid them
selves of in connection with this female suf
frage business. She and all the rest of then
have planted themselves on the platform tha
man has no rights which woman is boun'
to respect. Happily, the vast majority
American women are not disposed 10 iolloN

ENTBRPRIsING DoCToRs.-The interest taken by
doctors in all that relates to their profession Is very
praseW Orthy, but it is to be feared that owing to
the dnculty which exists in obtaining nt subjects
for experiment they occasionally make use OF their
they think they are being treated
with view to immediate recovery, are really con-
verted into stepping stones fer the advancement OF
science. curious illustration OF this will be found
IN lecture introductory to the study OF diseases
OF the skin," by Dr. Mccall Anderson, which ap-
peared in the London Lancet recently Hementions
the case OF little boy who was brought into the
Glasgow Skin lnnrmary laboring under disease
called lupus varicosus. No local treatment was pre-
scribed Says DR.. Anderson but he was ordered to
take tablespoonful OF cOd-liVer oil three times a
day, in order that the students might have an OPP
portuny OF observing the action OF cOd-yer oil in
such cases. The eruption improved very slowly,
and 1t was about nine months before it had COM
pletely disappeared. Had appropriate local treat
ment been adopted simultaneously, there is doubt
that it would have been removed in few weeks.

Senator Wilson did not say this-and the only
authority we have for it is the Washington
correspondent of the New York World-he
might well have said it without damaging his
reputation for veracity. The present Con-
gress has trihed with the patience of the
people in a most outrageous way, and the
worst of it is, there appears to be no disposi-
ton on its part to do any better. The peo-
pie can apply the remedy next fall.

WASHINGTON TERRITORY has made up its
mind to become State forthwith, and on the
9th of June will vote upon the question as to
whether or not a Convention shall be
called to draft State Constitution. But it is
said that the people of this distant region are
SO bent and determined upon acquiring the
honors and duties of sta tehood that the cleo
ton will be a mere ceremony. The trifing
circumstance that the total population of the
Territory foots up only 40, 900 does not ap-
pear to trouble the Washingtonians in the
least. But perhaps they will be content with
one-fourth of a Congressman, which will be
about as much as they are entitled to. AS to
the matter of Senators, they will of course
insist on having as much voice in the Upper
House of Congress as is accorded alike to
great, populous States like Pennsylvania and
Delaware.

SCRANTON is getting to be one of the great
places of the earth. 1t has just witnessed the

The VoTE IN FRANcE.-Later returns of
the vote in France on Sunday indicate a much
larger majority for the pLeb5scite than was at
first reported, but the negative vote still foots
up about 1,50O, 900, which, in view of the
past, is significant. The large negative vote
cast in both the army and navy shows that
there are thousands of men in the service of
the Government upon whom no dependence
could be placed in case of an insurrection,
unless, indeed, the vote has been doctored up
by the Government, and thousands of sol
diers and sailors induced to vote ''No" for
the sake of an appearance of fairness. But
peaceable as was the election throughout
France, the crisis did not pass without the
almost inevitable attempt at barricading the
streets, an attempt which was as futile as,
under the circumstances, it was foolish.

roy there should be no hesitation whatever.
quiet, modest, non-speaking Morrissey is
incomparably better than a noisy, impudent,
blatant ''brick" like Pomeroy; and we trust
that if the Democracy of the Fifth district of
New York can find no better successor for
him than the latter, they will give him at
least the customary second term.

THE CREDITORS of certain bankrupt down
at the Hub are petitioning Congress to re-
lieve his estate from the payment of some
$4,000 which are charged against it by way
of taxes, and it would not be surprising if
Congress turned favorable ear to the ap-
peal. The whole country is making similar
petition, but that is vastly different thing.
While it is comparatively an easy matter to
relieve one man of burden, when it comes
to raising the load from thirty or forty mil
lions of people the task assumes such gigan-
tic proportions that even congressman stand
aghast and seek refuge in buncombe speeches
on the beauties of self government.

CHICAGO PAPER complains that the Illi-
nois State Constitutional Convention now in
session at Springfield seems to be actuated
solely by the desire to ruin the business of
the former city, and with that object in view
an amendment to the Constitution has been
submitted to the convention prescribing that
unfaithfulness to the marriage vow shall
henceforth be the only ground for divorce.
Here's a chance for Beecher and Frothing-
ham to go on missionary tour. The other
day the convention was on the point of in
cooperating in the Constitution clause
allowing women to vote, when in stepped a
weak minded sister who, by few we'll
directed points, managed to avert the ca
lamity. The great apostles of the affinities
might be equally successful in saving the
divorce system of Chicago from utter ruin.
