The Coming Election In Ohio on tho
New Constitution.

Now NOuokNuNAUHe
This important election occurs on the
18th. There Is very decided opposition
going on to defeat the adoption Of the new
Constitution. It seems TO US that our
readers on the other side Of the river
should ponder well the advantages
promised by 1t before deciding to vote
against II. 1t Is hard to frame Constitu.
ton that 10 unobjectionable. The one TO
be voted on has cost much money, time
and trouble. 1t Is intended 10 supply
certain defects in the present Constitution
defects that experience has pointed out
as needing remedy. The Cleveland
Leader, after having Carefully compared
the new instrument with the existing
Constitution" finds that it "leaVes un'
changed the best features Of the present
instrument" and, in addition, provides the
following wise and salutary amendments:
First-The changes in the Legislative
Article will prevent Legislative corrup-
ton and promote Legislative economy.
second-The veto power given TO the
Governor and the payment Of a fixed
salary 10 the members OF the General AS
sembly, will shorten its sessions, and tend
10 improve tho character OF legislation.
Third-The change from annual to
biennial elections, will be an immense
saving to the State, besides tending to
make the actual elections OF greater in
terest and importance.
Fourth-lt gives 10 women opportu-
nifty 10 aid in the management Of schools,
and opens the door 10 further employ
ment Of females.
FiIth-It abolishes the oppressive and
unjust system Of paying the principal
county officers by fees.
The new Constitution offers the follow.
ing protection for the peoples money
"No person interested in an unsdjusted
clsimssagainst, or contract with, the
State, can hold a seat in the General As
sembly." mo appropriation bill, with
different items OF appropriation, can EN-.
brace any item, the payment Of which has
not previously been provided for by law"
When such appropriation bill has been in.
troduCed by the proper committee, no
amendment adding any item thereto can
be adopted, unless such amendment re-
ceives a majority Of the whole number Of
the members Of the house in which It
Is offered. On the final passage OF such
bill u "yea and my" vote can BIO had
on each item, and any item failing to re-
cGivc a majority Of the votes Of all the
members elected. Is stricken out without
defeating the bill. Appropriations other
than those which the general statutes re-
qulre to be made, can only become law
by two.thirds yea and nay vote Of all
the members Of each house; nor can Oil
iGrent appropriations OF this class be
united in tho same bill. In addition 10
all these safeguards, the Governor can
veto any one or more items in an appro-
priaton bill, leaving the balance thereof
to stand. II human continuance can pro-
tCct the treasury, these provisions ought
to be effective. If only two fifths Of the
General Assembly and the Governor are
honest men, the waste oil public money
will be prevented.

SIHMONS-HTLIYER,

The President took the successive rcjoctions
of his unfit nominees for Chief Justice so
philosophically that many of us had begun to
hope for better spirit in subsequent appoint
ments. But what shall DO said of the last
twOR
The Boston papers have been prompt enough
to express their opinion OF the Presidents
new candidate for Collector of the Port of
Boston. 1t must be confessed that bitter as
are their walls, they arouse little sympathy
Until last Autumn the press OF no city in the
Union has been more Obsequious than that
of Boston in its efforts to convince
the President that he could do no
wrong. When his influence began to be felt
in behalf of Gen. Butler, their patience first
began TO fail them. Now that he has az
founded Boston by appointing Gen. Buffers
most superserviceable supporter to their chief
office, the murmuis of last Autumn swell into
storm of indignation. The man seems to
have few qualifications, and certainly no claims
beyond his services to Gen. Butler.
The appointment in this city is in one sense
worse We have no wish to say anything
against Gen. William s. Hillyer, who was a
very serviceabe friend to Gen. Grant in the
days of his poverty and obscurity, and who
during the early part of the war served with
unquestioned gallantry on Gen. Grants per
sonal staff 1t is enough to urge that he is
utterly destitute either of experience or Of
any reasonable qualifications for the place
to which he has been appointed, and from
which Judge Hogeboom is removed. The po-
sition demands not merely good lawyer, but
a man of special business training. Even
such man cannot fit himself for an intelli-
gent discharge of its duties short of an APP
premiership of two or three years. liz would
take a good lawyer and business man, other
wise every way qualified, at least five years
to learn to discharge the duties as acceptably
as Judge Hogeboom has done. Has the Civil
Service system been SO utterly kicked out of
sight that. in case Judge Hogeboom must be
removed, decent respect for appearances
might not have been preserved by the promo
ton of q trained and qualified subordinate Even
if the Civil Service rules were to be fOuted,
why should the business men of New-York be
insulted by an appointment so utterly unfit 7
Gen. Grant has not an honest personal friend
in this city who will not tell him that Gen.
Hillyer's nomination for this place is prepos-
ferrous. We sincerely trust that he may be
induced out of regard for a gallant officer, if
for no other reason, to withdraw it, without
precipitating fight for its rejection in the
Senate.

Mr.. BEECHER on PREACHING GOD.

HIS THIRD LECTURE on THE PREACHERS TREATMENT
OF DOcrRISEs-G0D REALIZED TO SiKS TO BE
THE GREAT UPBUILDER or CHARACTERIZATION
OF THIS REALIZATION.
lPRoN AN occ AsI0SAL CORRESPONDENT or THE TRIBUNE
NEw-HAvEN, Feb. 1S.-The Rev. II. w. Beecher
delivered his third lecture on The Preachers
Treatment of Doctrines" in the Chapel Of the Yale
Divinity School, this afternoon, his theme being
a. The Mode of Preaching God" He mapped out the
general aim, and postponed the method Of its prac-
teal application till to morrow. His line of thought
was as follows:
God was presented as the supreme object of love; He
was to DO loved beyond kindred and friends with the
whole mind SOUL strength 1t was to be an exercise OF
the highest feeling In the strongest and most aper
vasve way. Such a love was to 20 out toward Un-
seen Person, which added difficulty. The whole Old
Testament was an unfolding and comme ntary this.
Therefore the great work of preacher to present
God, TO preach God. And this preaching make
God altogether lovely despite the things In not in
accord with Him. to ind the deeper things In
which were made " come into accord with God Ind to
develop them.
In going ouj TO such preaching there would be found
first hero aud there who bad large idea Of Gcd
and perfect love to Him, that He present
aud ever . JOY to them. Next would be found we'll

would be- found substraum Of those to whom Cod was

the same or similar operators. They would
have been duller knaves than they arc II they
had not been encouraged by their first success.
But the last coup shows great progress in its
boldness and in the elaboration of its details.
The first act carefully avoided tho technical
guilt of forgery. and accomplished its ends by
indirect suggestion. But the later one I'M
hesltatngly uses the names of leading Presi-
dents and financiers, and FORCES an actual
signature to distinct and definite false
hoods. This is not the work of any vulgar
criminal; it is no trick Of school-boy mischief.
The roenes who did it were thoroughly IN
formed of every detail of the trade in stocks.
They knew enough of the actual condition OF
two or three leading corporations to tell pre-
cisely the lie which would injure them most.
They had access to the channels by which the
brokers communicate with the authorities OF
the Stock Exchange. Their invention was so
plausible that the Yice-President read
it at once to the assembled Board and
the brokers present accepted it IS gen
uine and something like a panic resulted.
Only after the securities which had been
attacked had fallen two or three per ccDe did
it occur to some of cooler heads than the rest
to examine the documents to ascertain their
genuineness. After their spuriOusness had
been established, another circumstance
came to light to prove how well informed and
how Intimately acquainted with the routine
of corporation business the perpetrators must
have been. President orion, whose name had
been forged, had also received spurious
summons to attend an imaginary meeting at
another end Of the city, in order to insure
his absence during the dash which the con
spiratOrs intended to make upon tho Street.
1t would DO as absurd AZ it is unjust TO
charge that scoundrcls like this have the sym
patty OF the brokers, or that the morals of
Wall Street are such as to justify such crimes.
But it is impossible not to SEQ the easy and
half -admiring tolerance with which business
men look at these Infamous proceedings. And
it is equally impossible to deny that these
crimes are the direct result of the desperate
speculations of which the Street has been tuii
in recent years. and that they are the ioglcai
consequence and ultimate expression OF that
shameless spirit of indifference to means
in the pursuit of gain which has so long charac-
terized d certain class of operators. lt Is
an extremely thin partition which divides the
men who "radr the Street with forged let
tcrs and kilograms from the men who de-
liberately construct what are called "corners"
in stocks or other commodities The basis of
the one operation. rs of the other, is false
hood. The success of both consists in making
others believe the thing which is not. The
fact that the one proceeding is concOcted In
secrecy and fear, and tho other is arranged
in back offices by men of decent name ana
position, makes little difference in their moral
quality. The one performance is the unacknOwl-
edged offspring of the other.
