with permission to contract a morganatic
marriage with her. Such love alliance will
not prevent the Grand Dukes espousal of a

THE NORTH CAROLINA ELECTION

So far as the meagre reports thus far re-
ceived 90, the election in North Carolina
upon proposed amendments to the Con-
stitution appears 20 have brought out only
light vote, and the amendments were car
ried with only trifing opposition. Seven
of the amendments propose to do away with
the taking of State census in 1876, and at
the end Of every ten years thereafter, to pro-
vide for biennial instead of annual sessions of
the General Assembly, to allow the Legisla
ture to exempt from taxation, to a value not
exceeding $500, all kinds of personal proper
ty, to abolish the Office of Superintendent of
Public Works, to sever the connection be-
tween the University of North Carolina and
the common school system, to abolish the
Code Commission, and to forbid any Federal
officer from holding an Office under the State
Government, or any State officer from hold
| ing more than one office.
| The most important amendment is the one
which proposes to strike out that portion of
| Section G, Art. l., which provides that the
| State debt regularly contracted before and
since the rebellion shall be regarded as in
violable, and never be questioned; and to
strike out all of Section 4. Art. ", which
provides that after the year 1880 the General
| Assembly shall provide for the levying of
specific tax upon real and personal property
for the payment of the principal of the State
debt. This amendment will SO change the
Constitution that it will not make it compul
sorry on the Legislature to pay the interest
and principal the State debt but the
clause which provides that 1.-THE State shall
, never assume. or pay, or authorize the col
lection of any debt or obligation, express or
implied, incurred in aid of instruction or re-
bellion against the United States, or any
claim for the loss or emancipation of any
slave" will still remain.

Fearnaught was raised by Mr.. Brown, Of
Stratham, N H.. and sold to Mr.. A. =. Nor
rison of this city, and subsequently to MIR. S.
b. Wright. of whom he was purchased for
S25, 900 by Col. Ii. S. Russell. He was
remarkable stock horse, stamping nearly all
his colts with his own color and marks, no
matter what the color of the dam, and so pop
ular had he become that his list of engage
ments-lmited to twenty at $500 each--was
filed early in the season. His colts are scat
tered all over New England. and are held at
very high prices. Prominent among them
may he mentioned Fearnaught Junior, Bay
Fearnaught, and Fearnaught Boy, owned by
Mr.. d. Neyins, Jr., of South birmingham ;
Fearnaught Prince, owned by Hon. Frank
Jones, of Portsmouth, N. H.; Carenaught
and Manchester, owned by Wright & Nor

turf, Fearnaught took the first premium and
the extra gold meal for stations for general

that. the growing cost Of living or other


unavoidable expenses render 1t necessary,
and they would grant the necessary rise
with but little remonstrance. Had Con-
gress simply raised the pay OF future Con-
gressmen, there would have been the ques-
ton ofexpcdency or necessity only to be
considered; but when that body went
back and raised its own pay for the past
two years it did a thing which struck
against the moral sense of all the people,
and all arguments to prove that it is right
are unavailing To argue that others
have done the same act does not help it in
the least. Repetition does not make
wrong right, but every time the wrong is
repeated the more odious it becomes. If
the abolition Of the ranking privilege is a
fair ground for raising the salary of MEM
bers, it has no application to the last Con-
gress, who enjoyed the benefits of the frank
to the full, whatever they might be. We
think Gen. Butler will find that there Is
something more than newspaper clamor in
the opposition to the salary bill. When
public men are clearly right newspaper de-
nunciation will harm them little but when
they are clearly wrong the weakest news
paper is an engine of power against them,
too mighty to be sneered at by kings or
generals. If Gen. Butler believes that his
defence of salary grabbing will aid him to
a nomination for Governor Of Massachu-
sets we most respectfully beg leave to
express our dissent from his opinion. 1t
does not touch the root of the matter, but
by evading the principal point at issue
makes his case rather worse than better.
