ridden nations of Europe should find a coun-
try where the soul could adore its Maker with
out the absurdity of human edict. To the
free, obey the civil law and adore God under
what form or name you please. To the atheist,
even, it wished to say, here is land where
you will not be prosecuted for an opinion
about how you came into existence or on what
you depend for continuance of life. We are
fully aware that this would not have been the
course of the bigot of any creed. The fanatic
religionist would have declared that no one
outside of certain sect should have rights
that any one of the faithful would be bound
to respect. The violent atheist would have
declared that there was no God, church build
ing would be high treason and clergyman
would be declared an outlaw The supreme
wisdom which laid the basis of our liberties
on a tolerance wide as charity could make it
belonged to high class Of mind which it was
fortunate for our newborn Republic to pos
sess-a class sufficiently rare to be almost in
comprehensive to the bigot of any belief or
disbelief
However we may acquit the projectors of the
amendment of an intentional irreverence on
account of purblindness, we do not hold them
guiltless of deliberate intention to abridge
the liberty of conscience in America Their
pretensions once acknowledged, Jew or an
infdel would be outside the constitution. By
this means the first limitation of conscience
would be achieved. The elimination of OBJ
jectionables would pave the way for further
aggressions, and the first steps would be taken
to the formation of State Church. Herein
lies the magnitude of the danger from per-
hitting religious meddling with the constitu-
ton. 1t would make no man better Christian
that his God was in the constitution; itwould,
if accomplished, be the precursor of what we
have most reason to dread-a union between
Church and State.

The PRESIDENT, it appears, as the result Of
a Cabinet council on the subject, has deemed
it expedient to give up for the present his con-
templated tour with portion of his Cabinet
through the reconstructed Southern States.
He will have public matters to look after in
connection with an extra session of the Senate
which cannot be postponed. and there are
doubts still entertained as to the probabilities
of the two houses of this expiring Congress
getting through with the needful appropria-
ton bills in the brief interval remaining to
the 4th Of March. In any event Gen.
Grants projected Southern official tour of
observation is deferred to a more convenient
season. We hope, however, that few weeks
hence the books will be posted and the coast
will be clear for this Southern expedition, and
that the President will seize the opportunity
for the enterprise, because we are satisfied that
the excursion will be accepted by the people of
the Southern States as the olive branch of
peace and good will from the administration.

ally be carried out and the river be spanned
by bridge in that locality, but whether the
time has yet arrived to incur the expense OF
the removal of the buildings is another ques-
ton. AT all events the discussion of the i'm
provements which are certain, sooner or later,
to be made in the metropolis, is at all times of
interest and benefit.

Christ in the Constitution.

There are a number of amiable people, prin-
cipally sectarian school principals, who from
time to time make little stir among them
selves about the ACCESSIBILITY of putting God in
the constitution through an amendment They
hold conventions now and then having this
object dimly in view, and they send around
circulars with few names of State Governors
and others upon them. Of late the plan has
grown in their imaginations. and the name of
Jesus Christ is freely banded about among
them as one desirable to be added to the
Divinity in the amendment. Not satisfied
with this the Bible is advocated as q good
thing to be included, and we are to have one
of their conventions soon to elucdate this
plan. We know very well how easily cant
grows by feeding on itself. We know also
that the principals of ssctarian schools are
particularly liable to virulent attacks of vigor-
GUS cant, and where the conspiracy to cant is
well kept up the eyes soon become blinded to
its absurdity. They mount their hobby and
gallop it onward careless and ignorant Of
where it may lead.
A constitutional amendment having such
an object, like all the offsprings of cant, has
vein of blasphemy in it which might startle its
pious projectors could they view it with some
of the scales off their eyes. Men having the
reverence they profess for the Maker of all
things, for Christ and for the Bible, should
see the irreverence which dragging these sacred
things into the channels of mundane politics
implies. To see God, Christ and the Bible
put forward as the sixteenth, seventeenth or
eighteenth amendment to the constitution
should be revolving to the Christian mind, of
which these people believe they hold the
strings This, however, is but the smallest
argument against the pretentious tampering
with the civil document which guards the
rights of the nation.
When the trainers of the constitution
achieved their work it was neither in q spirit
Of defiance nor neglect that all reference to
religion or to the Supreme Being was omitted
1t was done so that to those born on the soil
the fullest latitude of conscience should be
given; that he or she who came to this land

The news dispatches relative to the progress
of public events in Spain, and of the conse-
quences thereof, which we publish in the
HERALD to-day, are of an important character.
The kilograms come from Madrid, Barcelona,
Paris, Versailles and London. Their COM

We are told, indeed, that Ministers have
turned away from their duty, to some extent
and sought temporary refuge from their adj
ministrative anxieties by the induction of that
old time remedy-a Ministerial crisis. Gem
eral de Cordoba, Minister of War, is likely to
resign, and, it is alleged, that all the Cabinet
officers who adhere to the radical party in
politics will also vacate their portfolios. The
idea of federal republic, conservative in its
general policy, is gaining ground rapidly
in all parts of Spain. That is the idea.
In practice they have Carlism and the
monarchists on one side, the radical reds
and the red flag of complete equality in society
and property at the other. The Catalonian
authorities, as well as officials in many
other sections, avow their fidelity to the ex-
listing order of rule. Barcelona is excited
towards reaction and the people on the border
line of the Tagus are moving towards change
which may extend all over the Iberian PENN

through like experience, and know both
the curse of Spanish rule and the value of
freedom. Still, with all the hostility and
visionary theories of the rulers of Spain, cir
cumstances seem to combine just now in
q remarkable and an encouraging manner to
favor the cause of Cuban independence, and
as q consequence, the extinction of slavery in
Cuba. First there are the revolution and
proclamation of Republic in Spain. Not
that we think, as was said, the re-
publican government of Spain will be
disposed to recognize the independence
of Cuba. The logical argument of their
own revolutions to establish freedom and
republican institutions will hardly teach the
Spaniards to concede the same rights to the
Cubans they claim for themselves. The alb
surdity and injustice of refusing the same
privileges will not probably have much weight.
There are in Spain other leading men besides
CASTELAR, who dream of re-establishing and
perpetuating the Spanish colonial empire
CASTELAR,, who is now the Minister for Foreign
Affairs and very influential member of the
Spanish government, has never, when discours-
ing OF liberty, republicanism and the abolition
of slavery in the most thrilling language, said
a word favorable to the independence of Cuba.
1t is scarcely to be expected, now that he is in
power, that lie or the other members of the gov
eminent who may have been more liberal on
this question, will willingly consent to part
with Cuba. Then, whatever might be the dis
position or views of some of the members Of
the new government, the first thought will be
to establish the Republic of Spain, and, conse-
quently, to do nothing that would shock the sem
timent or prejudices of Spaniards. The people
of Spain are very proud, and generally as
ignorant of the Cuban difficulty as they are
proud. The sentiment of maintaining the
integrity of Spanish territory and the colonial
possessions is cherished as much by the
ignorant masses as by the brilliant and poetic

AN ITEM WHICH EVERY MAN SHOULD
READ.-We have probably all of us
met with instances in which a word
heedlessly spoken against the reputa-
ton of a female has been magnifed by
malicious minds until the cloud has
been dark enough to overshadow her
whole existence. To those whe are
accustomed, not necessarily from bad
motives, but from thoughtlessness-to
speak lightly of ladies, we recommend
these hints as worthy of consideration:
Never use a lady's name in i'm
proper places at an improper time, or
in mixed company. Never make
assertions about her that you think I'M
true, or illusions that you think she
herself would blush to hear.
When you meet With men who do
not scruple to make use of woman's
name in reckless and unprincipled
manner, shun them-they are the very
worst members of the community
men lost to every sense of honor, every
feeling of humanity. Many good and
worthy woman's character has been
forever ruined and her heart broken by
lie manufactured by some villain and
repeated where it should not have been
and in the presence OF those whose
little Judgment could not deter them
from circulating the foul and Dragging
report.
A SANDER is soon propagated, and
the smallest thing derogatsry to a wo-
mans character will fly on the wind,
and magnify as it circulates, until its
monstrous weight brushes the poor un-
conscious victim. Respect the name
Of woman; yoir mother and sisters are
women, and as you would have their
fair names unfarnished, AMI their lives
unimbittered by the slanderer's bitter
tongue, heed the ills your words may
bring upon the mother, the sister or the
wife of some Of your fellow creatures.

Eumors Of the Telegraph.

Not long since a countryman came
into a telegraph Office in Bangor, Maine,
with a message, and asked that it be
sent Immediately. The operator took
the message as usual, put his instrument
in communication with it's destination,
licked off the signals upon the key, and
then, according to the rule of the office,
hung the message paper on the hook
with others that had been previously
sent, that at night they might all be
filed for preservation. The man
lounged around some time, evidently
unsatisfied. cat last" says the mar
rator of the incident, "his patience was
exhausted, and he belched out, cain t
you going to send that dispatch ," The
operator politely informed him that he
had sent it. "No, yer amt" replied
the indignant man "there it is now on
the hook"
SO far as the exact use Of language
was concerned, the man was right
Still more ludicrous mistakes sometimes
occur. Thus the German papers re-

close of the late war, an aged mother
came to the telegraph Office carrying a

and the operator at the other end of the
