There is strong probability that
Congress will enact law making all
pensions granted on account of the
late war, date from the time of the
death or disability. AS the law now
stands, pensioners draw pensions only
from the time the application is
proved, hence many have been de-
priyed of their pension money for
years on account of their not having
made early application. The proposed
change in the law will be regarded by
the country as highly Just and proper.

AMENDMENTS TO THE CONSTITUTION.

Certain amendments to the Constitution. pro-
posed by resolves Of the last legislature, have
been declared by a proclamation of my prede-
cessor to be adopted by the popular vote and to
take effect and become a part of the cOnsttu-
ton of the State on the first day Of January,
1876.
1t is among the first and most important of
your duties to give full practical effect to these
amendments, by such enactments, and revision
Of existing statutes, may be necessary to
that end.
The amendments relating to special legisla.
ton and corporations necessitate much and the
most careful exercise Of your powers. They
are as follows. constituting additions to article
four. part third, of the Constitution: .Sec-
ton b. The legislature shall, from time to
time, provide, rs far as practicable, by general
laws, for all matters usually appertaining to
special or private legislation"
''SectiOn IA. Corporations shall be formed
under general laws, and shall not be created by
special acts Of the legislature, except for NUM-
cipal purposes, and in cases where the objects
of the corporation cannot otherwise be attain
ed and however formed, they shall forev-
er be subject to the general lays Of the State"
Section thirteen presents Discretionary field
of action which your own honor will impel you
to occupy to the fullest extent.
The title of especial and Private Laws,
which includes SO large portion of the laws of
former legislatures, is ans obnoxious one, con-
veying suggestions Of privilege, favoritism, and
