THERE. is something exceedingly amusing
to US in the v9aporings OF the Radical press
over the new order Of things. The San An
tonic Express to illustrate, commences an
editorial as follows; -
The revolution is still marching on. De-
mocracy is shining in all its splendor and
ruthlessly swinging the scourge. The time
of judgment has arrived for the many sins
the people Of Texas have committed in .wor-
shipping their secession idols; they will
suffer for it as sure as the Jews suffered
after the worshipping Of the golden calf. '

THE reason why the Jonr'aal is trying so
hard to secure the State printing for the
Gazette is, that through such means it
hopes to give value to the material of that
Radical concern.

proposes to publish paper with the above
title, at Waxahachie. His prospectus is re-

printed lines in length. It concludes by
saying that no one can get his paper unless
they pay for it. Was Mr.. GibsOn's head

We advert e this gu ton again, inas-,

who, as we conceive, have not maturely cor
sidefed the points involved. OF all the re-
forms demanded by our people, none
stand out more prominently or are more
imperativeIy demanded. This must con
stitute our apology for dwelling on this
subject
We shall endeaYor to make the matter 50
plain, that che that runs may read.Y
Says the Ga.stts Of yesterday;
The. glazing evils Of the present consti-
tuition in the judiciary, road and school
laws, may Be reformed By amendments,
and an act declaringi It general election
it may be done the present year.
Has the editor Of that paper, and those
whose views It represents matureIy con
sidered the question: Reference to the
Constitution win clearly settle this matter.
In the general provisions, section fifty, we
find the following:
IT, ~
Of each house shall deem it necessary, may
propose amendments to this Constitution,
which proposed amendments shall be duly
published in the public prints Of the State
at least three months before the next gene
raj election Of Representatives, for the con-
sideration Of the people; and it shall be
the duty Of the several returning officers,
at the next general election, which shall be
thus holden, to open poll for, and make
return to, the Secretary of State Of the
names of all those voting for Representa-
tiVes, who have voted on such proposed
amendments; and, II thereupon, it shall
appear that majority Of those voting upon
the proposed amendments have voted in
favor Of such proposed amendments, and
two-thirds Of each house Of the next Legis-
lature shall, after such election, ratify the
same amendments by yeas aad nays, they
shall be valid to all intents and purposes,
as parts Of this Constitution; Pro0id-d,
that the said proposed amendments shall,
at each of the said sessions, have been read
on three several days in each House.
It win be seen from the foregoing that
the Constitution does not invest the Legs
lature with authority to define what gen
eral election is, in which amendments to the
Constitution may be offered to the people
for ratification OF rejection, but that such
general election is one in which Rep
Tesentatives are to be elected to the Legis-
lature. Not only this, but after the people
have voted on the question, the succeeding
Legislature are to DO called upon to ratify
or reject It.

The speech OF Gen. Gordon, OF Geor.

question was listened to with great at
tention, especially that portion OF 1t
which partook Of tie nature OF a per-
sonal explation. aud which referred to
the surrender OF Lee at Appomattex.
Mr.. Gordon made it because he had
been charged with being influenced by
personal prejudice against the admin
istrstion. lie said lie was one OF those
who held a command in the Confeder-
ate army when it surrendered to Cen
eral Grant at Appomattox. Until that
time he had never known what grief
was. The negotiations occupied four
days and four nights, and during all
hat time not one word OF exultstion
escaped the lips of the Federal COM
msnders in fact, they evaded all con-
versation relative to battles in which the
Union arms has been successful and
spoke only OF those engagements In
which they had been defeated. de,
