In THE eyes Of the venerable Pilgrim
who writes such voluninous balderdash
for the Raleigh Standard, there is treason
in the desire expressed by the ConserVa-
tive majority of this State for new Con-
stitution, one made for the benefit, some
what, of the white people Of the State as
we'll as for the negroes and carpet-baggers
who have endea7ored to appropriate it to
themselves. We are pleased to learn that
the Republicans of Pennsylvania are also
furnishing food for Standard editorials, the
subject of Convention of the people for
the purpose of re modelling tho Con8titG-
