The fifth Amendment proposes 10
change the Constitution of North Ca,
olina by striking ont that portion of It
which declares that the public debt
shall be regarded rs inviolable and
never to be questioned, and that which
requires the Legislature by approprl-
ate legislation and by adequate taxa
ton to provide for the prompt and
regular payment of the interest and
principal.
If this Amendment be ratified the
Legislature will have entire unlimited
control of tic whole matter. AS the
matter now stands the Legislature IS
hampered by the requirements of tie
Constitution.
There can never be a satisfactory
settlement of our public debt question

remain in the Constitution of the Stat.
When they shall be removed aud

THE ELECTION AND REGISTRA A.
TION LAWS.

We publish in another column, this
morning, the laws regulating the man
her of voting upon the proposed Con-
stitutional Amendments.
It will be seen that separate box IS
TO be had for each Amendment, but
that in other respects the law differs
little from that of last year.
It becomes necessary, in view of the
requirement of the law regarding Re
gistration, that every voter should see
that his name is upon the Registration
Book before the day of election. No
new registration is required for any
one who is already properly registered,
but it is the part of prudence, at least,
for every voter to examine the record
in time and see that his name is prop
erly entered.
It is especially important that per
sons who have lately moved from one
township to another shall see to 1t that
they are properly registered.

derstanding of the same, but that they
will accept as theirs the construction
and application of these provisions
made by the colored men, and bind
themselves forever to maintain the
same. Thus the constitutional pro-
visions, Federal and State, which re-
late exclusively to political and civil
rights, are construed by the colored
people as applying to certain personal
and social rights, which no one before
demanded or claimed under them.
The right of hotel-keeper, of the
owner Of steamboat or theatre, to
control the conditions upon which he
will use his property and conduct his
business, or of communities to organ
ize and direct the discipline of their
schools, are regarded as swept away
by the constitutional guarantees rela-
ting only to political and civil rights.
The legality, the justice and logic OF
this conclusion are stoutly denied, and
have been adjudicated against by very
high authorities. But the Unifiers
concede them, and a great deal more.
They concede them, too, not as SIN
cere, conscientious conviction and
earnest acceptance of their verify, but
as means of placating the favor and
securing the cooperation of the col
ored citizens in certain political and
patriotic aims.
From the New Orleans Picay yune
If we understand the great object of
that meeting, it was to ratify the efforts
of the Committee of One Hundred to
harmonize the races and bring about a
new election, in which all would unite
to Danish forever from our soil bad
government, establishing good in its
place, and to make peace, prosperity
and good will grow where now flourish
only the noisome weeds of race antag-
onism, political persecution and official
corruption.
What fruit has this mass meeting
borne? We say tin sorrow-the fruit
is the speech of the small politicians,
Henry Burch, and the resolutions
offered by Mr.. Lewis and signed by
himself, DR.. Roudanez and others.
who claim to represent the negro race
in Louisiana.
Alas, these men know not what they
DO. God knows we had hoped to be
spared the necessity of saying it; we
had hoped that common sense was
beginning to assert it's sway, and that
it and justice wonld be the victors; but
Messrs. Burch, Lewis, and others
must not forget that the whites are
men, and that men have borne. and
can and will bear again, evils far
worse than all that surround us now
rather than sacrifice those funda-
mental principles which alone sustain
true civilization. Concession is one
thing; degradation is another. Ruin
of this generation may be the salvation
of the next. Degradation of this ex-
tends far beyond. Real men will not
be long i'll choosing.
Again we say, we are sorry indeed
| that these representative men" of the
negro race should have SO wantonly
and effectively killed the unification
movement, but they have done it, and
the funeral is theirs

A Great Horror Done Away With.
House cleaning is q great horror to

House cleaning is great horror to
nine men out of every ten. When that
time come the ''men folks" as a rule,
give the domestic hearth "wide
berth" Oceans of suds-the product
of tons of soap-fairly flood every
part of the house. The women, from
the mistress down, laobr as they never
worked before, and what with the dis
comfort, the smell of suds and the
dampness, and not nnfrequently sick
ness, the product of colds and over
work, matters are generally disagree
able. The simple use of Sapolio in
stead of soap does away with all this
discomfort. It lightens the labor a
hundred per cent, because it removes
dirt, grease, stains and spots, with
hardly any labor, with but little water,
and in one tenth the usual time.

TfkE REAUKEGAI.D POLICY
WIEAT 1T MEANS.

of our readers to the proceed
ings Of meeting of citizens held III
New Orleans week ago tonight, to
ratify and respond to the resolutions
recently put forth by General Beaure-
gard and his committee. We are thus
earnest in asking serious, thoughtful
attention to the proceedings of this
meeting, because it seems to us that
the declarations of both colored and
white speakers on that occasion SHOW,
beyond the shadow of doubt, hcw
both parties to the unifcation contract
understand the intent and meaning Of
that contract
As we understand that contract,
General Beauregard and his white
allies have promised to grant perfect
equality, social ard otherwise, the law
having thus far been unable to enforce
it and in return therefor, and after
the performance of their part OF the
contract by HE whites. the negroes
pl. dge themselves to ''reducc taxation
to rate corresponding with the re-
sources Of the country, to investigate
and correct the public debt, to sup
press unnecessary offices, to diminish,
largely, the high salaries and cxorbl-
tant cinOluments attached to public
Louisiana as soon as possible, the es5-
tablishment Of an honest, economical
and patriotic government
One of two Things is apparent, Gen
eral Beauregard and his white allies
have surrendered their belief that
there is a difference between the white
race and the black race, not attribu
table merely to education, or they
hope to cheat their colored fellow-clti-
zens N Louisiana by holding out to
them promises they never intend 10
perform.
Which view Of the case IS the cor
rect one we are not just now prepared
to say. We are prepared 10 say, now
ever, now and here, that We ere Bit
terly opposed to the new movement,
and that too no matter whether white

are their equals in all respects save
education, CT whether they propose

good, save the man who draws the pay

good, save the man who draws the pay
it gives for doing nothing.
Old Mr.. Silas Burns, Of Chatham,
of all the men, women and children III
North Carolina, black and white, so
far as we know, is the only human
being who has announced any opposi,
tion to this particular amendment, and
he, as the people already know, hap
pens to draw the pay for doing nothing
in this very Office OF Superintendent of
Public Works, that every one else
wishes to abolish.
The fifth Amendment proposes to
strike from the Constitution that por-
ton of it which declares that the pub
lie debt shall be regarded AS inviolable
and never to be questioned, and that
which requires the Legislature, by ap-
propriate legislation and by adequate
taxation, to provide for the prompt
and regular payment of the interest
and principal.
If this Amendment be ratified, the
Legislature will have unlimited control
of the whole matter. AS the matter
now stands, the Legislature is ham
pered by the requirements of the
Constitution.
There can never be satisfactory
settlement of our public debt question
SO long as these imperative provisions
remain in the Constitution of the State.
When they shall be removed and cred
itors, so called, shall be dependent
entirely upon the will Of the people,
as spoken by their representatives in
the General Assembly, there will be
little trouble in bringing matters to a
reasonable satisfactory compromise.
We take no mere Conservative
partizan view of this question. Mr..
Curtis H. Brogden, prominent mem
Der of the Radical party and by virtue
of it's votes Lieutenant Governor of
the State of North Carolina, publicly
declares that ''the legislation of
1863 when the Special Tax Bonds
We're issued, drought reproach and
discrtdit upon the State
He publicly declares, too, that with
our deficient means and our imperfect
farming operations with SO many non-
producers, and our dependence upon
others fof necessary supplies, we are
little prepared to pay high taxes or to
bear heavy pecuniary burdens.
1t will require tax of three dollars
and twenty-five cents on every one
hundred dollars worth Of property Of
every sort to pay the interest on the
Public Debt, so-called, and the ex-
pens.es of State and county govern
ment In addition to this, after the
year 1850, another tax Will have to be
levied each year to provide a sinking
fund to pay the principal.
If these taxes be levied and paid
our people will be sold out of house
and homo. Homesteads and exemp-
tions and bankruptcy are worth moth
ing against sheriff with II tax bill IN
his hand. The money must come OF
the homestead must be sold to make
| it. 1t will be wise and prudent then
| to strike from the Constitution that
| part of it which requires the tax t. be
! levied.

TIE UNIFICATiON DEVELOPMENT.

The meeting at the Exposition Hall
developed more fully than any pre-
vious manifestation the spirit, plan
and argument of the Unifcation part
A careful consideration of ali that
was done and said in this meeting, in
a spirit of impartiality and earnest de-
sire to promote the welfare of our
State and the harmony Of the races,
has confirmed the opinion already ex-
pressed by us, that the scheme is an
impractical, unwise, untimely and III
furious one.
What is the proposition ? That GER
tain white citizens will pledge them
selves to surrender certain ancient
prejudices which are regarded by the
colored citizens as violative of the con-
stitutional and legal obligations of all
citizens. In other words, the white
citizens adopt the Interpretation placed
by their colored brethren on certain
constitutional provisions, and, not
content with general declaration that
they will conform to the Constitution
