The Liberty Can.

When a slave was manulnitttd by the
Romans, a small red cloth cap. called
piieus, was placed on his head. 80 soon
As this was done he WAS proclaimed a
freedman Nberfinus). and his name
duly registered. When Saturnius took
the capital. i'm the veal 263, he hoisted a
cap on the top Of his spear to indicate
that all slaves who joined him should
he free. Marius employed the same
symbol when melting the slaves tO take
up arms against Sylla. and when Caesar
was murdered the cOnspiratOrs marched
forth in a body with a cap elevated on
a spear a a token of liberty. The Cod
dess of Liberty in the Aventine Mount
was represented rs holding in her hand
a cap. the symbOlof freedom. In France
the JacObins wore a red cap Bonnet
rouge; but in England the cap of blue.
with a white border, is the symbol Of
liberty. and Britannia is sometimes
represented as holding such a cap on the
point of her spear. The American cap
of liberty is also of blue, with a white
hand or border on the bottom. upon
which thirteen stars are placed. and has
been adapted from the British. There
is no absolute or positive regulation in
regard to this cap. beyond its shape or
color, so far as America is concerned
1t is in shape of an old-fashioned night
cap or truncated cone.

The Amendments.

There seems now not 10 be any danger
that the Conservatives will try to make ali
issue on the ratification OF the amendments
proposed to the State Constitution. The
Scottsville Courier says OF them:
The Legislature made mistake in sub
hitting them as a whole. One OF the series
is meritorious and would greatly benefit the
State; the others arc very Objectionable and
will be opposed by large portion OF the
Conservative party. While the Legislature
made them party question and carried
them by the operation OF the caucus, so lar
as the matter stands now therais no purpose
to make the adoption or rejection OF them
at the polls a party issue The provision
recurring the voter to have paid his poll-tax
before voting is important, and it is very
desirable such provision should be incor-
poratcd in our organic law. A reduction
OF the House of Delegates to ninety or one
hundred members is not proper or deslra-
BILE. Leaving out Of view its effect. polltl-
cally. upon Southsidc and Underwater Viz
ginia, it is unwise and in conflict with the
spirit OF our institutions to place three or
four counties in one election district and
give them one delegate. II possible, each
county should have its own representative
i'm the House of Delegates. 70 Illus
trate the operation Of this reduction,
the county OF Albcmarlc population
$4,000 would have two delegates; the
Peninsular counties OF Charles City, New
Kent. James City, York, Warwick, and
Elizabeth City, having about the same popul-
lation as Albemarle, would be entitled to
two. The effect OF such change would be
the loss OF two Conservative members OF
the House and to turn over for score OF
years the historic Pcninsular to tue Nortons,
Joneses, &c. This would be true OF Tide
water and the Southside. These Virginians
have struggled heroically for decade. and
two years ago they succeeded in throwing
of the negro yoke. Make an apportion-
ment upon the basis OF 90 or 100 members,
and you at once turn them over to negro
domination.
So far rs biennial sessions OF the Legi>la-
ture are concerned, we do not think the
amendment will amount 10 anything. The
Constitution OF 1850 provided for biennial
sessions, and yet the Legislature held seven
sessions in nine years. But each ConScrva-
tive may vote us he pleascs. We repeat, it
is not party question, and there is no rea-
son why each individual should not act I'M
trammelled by party ties.
That's the correct position. Let every
Conservative vote as he pleaSes
