slick 10 the Old Edition

There appears to be a new and reviS-
cd edition of the Constitution of the
United States in use by some OF the
Republican members of Congress. The
old version said: Every bill which
shall have passed the House of Reprcs-
entatives and the Senate shall, before
it becomes a law, he presented to the
President of the United States. II he
aDurore lie shall sign it, but if not lie
shall return il with his objections 10
that House in which it shall lave orr
ginated,' &c, &c. In the good Old
daya when the Constitution was a book
of reference as well as refefence, every
school boy knew that section and 9th
ers ''by heart,n but to-day we have
members of Congress who actually
charge that the President commits an
act amounting to usurpation when he
exercises his discretion in the matter
of disappearing private pension bills.
Their copy of the Constitution Gems to
say that the President shall sign every
bill passed by the representatives of the
people. And for talk of this kind the
public business has been delayed at the
close of a long session of Congress,
with much essential legislation still un-
done and increasing the risk that ii
will remain undone.-Ledqer.

There are about two hundred news
papers in this state. The last Legisla-
ture passed 30 laws being more than
have been passed Tor some past years
and appropriated only S5U,00 for their
publication in the newspapers which is
much less than was appropriated last
year. As the law allows 60 cents per
hundred words the amount a%lqrupria-
ted VII not pay for the publication of
the laws in more than siXty-thrce pa
pers, about half the number which pub
lished them last year. Governor Alb
bett has quite a %perPlexing time to
choose what papers to designate as 50
few can be allowed the laws. We pre-
sumo the reason the legislative solons
did not appropriate more money 50 the
law could be more extensively publish.
ed was because they passed few laws of
public interest and they did not wisl:
to publish them too extensively among
the people.

WASHINGTON LETTER
From Our Regular Corrcspoadant)

tfrom Our Regular Correspondent
WASHINGTON, ID. c., Sept. -, 1856.
The principal event for the com.
ing week will be tie Inauguration of
AN industrial exposition of the color
ed people of this city. Not only are
business interests throughout the
country improving under the blight
of democratic rule, but the "poor col
ored people" whose fate Mr.. Hayes
bewailed when he learned that Til
den was elected, are so well satisfied
with their progress that the many
thrifty representatives of the race at
the Capital are about to hold great
fair to display and celebrate their in
dustrial progress. The exhibition
will include samples Of the work of
colored artisans and mechanics IN
many trades and handicralts and it
will be organized and conducted
wholly by people of African blood.
The negroes of the south hardly
require to hold fair to make known
the result OF their industry. 1t is
amply demonstrated by the grea,
crops of cotton, rice, tobacco, corn
and other staples of that region, aud
in the rapidly increasing production
of iron, coal, lumber and building
stone. The fright of labor and to
enjoy the fruits of their labor" which
Lincoln asked for the freed men, is
now as thoroughly improved by them
as the race characteristics and the
climate influences OF the sunny south
will permit.
The race is likewise prospering in
other ways. Its young are taking
advantage of the schools provided
for them, and the fears of reenslave-
ment or oppression which selfish pol
iticians nculcated from selfish mo-
tives, are no longer felt. The negro
as political issue and the 5loody
shirt pennon appear to be out of pol
itics. They are not in the planks of
recent Republican platforms. Re.
publican orators can 10 longer "point
