The New COnstitutiOn--Wil it be
Adopted?

There is beginning to be some talk
about the adoption of the new Con
stitution, and there Is no doubt but
there will be a strong opposition made
to its adoption. The Democratic par
ty, from indications visible, are dis
posed to make political test on the
question of its adoption, and we may
expect to see that party organizing
their forces against the adoption of
the Constitution. But we appFehend
they will not be able to ring in all of
those who have hitherto voted and
acted with the party, but there will be
independent voters enough found at
the polls of both political parties to
carry the question in favor of the
adoption of the Constitution. 1t may
not be a perfect organic law-there
may be provisions in il that might
have been bettered, and there may be
omissions in its provisions that are alb
solutely necessary to the efficiency of
the instrument, but it is an improve
ment, in many respects, on the old
one, and inferior in none to it. 1t is
not an easy matter for 105. men to so
concentrate their opinions upon so
many points as are necessarily en-
braced in an organic law as to make
them identical; there must, therefore,
be compr omises and accessions, OF
there never could be an organized as
sociation of any kind. We are in
clined to believe that our delegates
were actuated by no other object thar
to prepare for the people the best Con
stitution they could agree upon, anC
we think the people, when they have
given it their deliberate consideration
will go up to the polls and cast theil
votes in favor of it's adoption.

EDITORIAL Convention.

The Ohio Valley Editorial Associa-
ton will meet in this city Wednesday
and Thursday, June 10th and 11th.-
The prospects are that the attendance
will be very large, and the meeting
thus made one of special interest in a
business point of view.
Socially, the proverbial liberality of
our citizens has enabled the members
of the press fraternity here to map
out a programme which will certainly
show our guests that duh time does
not affect hospitality in the Scioto
Valley. Among the leading features
in this respect will be receptions by
Gov. VIM. Allen, Gen. James 7.
Worthington and Hon. L. G. Delano,
and a banquet at Masonic Hall, at
which a large number of our leading
business and professio nal men, accom-,
panied by ladies, will be present.
Hon. John M. Yanmeter will preside
at the banquet, and Capt T. A. Min
shall will deliver the address of wei
coma to the visitors.
The military and fire companies
have been invited to give parade and
drill in front of the Court House, and
will doubtless accept.
Among the distinguished members
of the press expected to be present ART
Smith of the Cincinnati Gazette, Hal
stead of the Commercial, Barrett O
the Times, Cockerill of the ENQUIRER
the editors of the Volksblatt ant
Volksfreund, Comfy of the Columbus
Journal, Bickham of the Dayton Jour
nal, and others. Several have ALREADY
responded favorably, and the presenc
of all is anticipated.
II will be the endeavor of the citi
zens ard editors of Chillicothe t.
make the occasion one specially re
memberabls, and it is hoped that al
editors within the limits Of the Asso
citation will make it a point TO be pres

GENTLEMEN: My only object in giving you
this testimonial is to spread valuable infOrma-
ton Having been badly afflicted with Salt
Rheum, and the whole surface of my skin being
covered with pimples and eruptions, many of
knowing it to be blood disease, took many of
the advertised blood preparations, among which
was any quantity of Sarsaparilla q, without obtain
ing any benefit, until I commenced taking the
Vegetine; and before [ had completed the first
bottle saw that had got the right medicine
Consequently followed on with it until had
taken seven bottles, when l was pronounced 8
we'll man; and my skin is smooth and ensirely
free from pimples and eruptiOns have never
enjoyed so good health before, and attribute it
all to the use OF VegetiHe. To benefit those af-
fieted with Rheumatism, / will make mention
also of the Vegetine's wonderful power of curing
me OF this acute complaint, of which haYe sut
fered intensely.

Mr.. STEVENS: Dear Sir: I have been troubled
with Canker from childhood, causing my mouth
to be so sore at times, that l was unable to eat.
Have taken many preparations, but with no eff
feet until tried your Vegetine. After takin G
a few doses, 1 found it relieved the faintness at
the stomach that always accompanies Canker
humor; and by the time 1 had taken the third
bottle my mouth entirely cured have not
been troubled with it since that time, which is
eight months ago. l have recommended it to
several of my acquaintance; and every one
speaks favorably of its good effect.
