OUR LEGISLATURE has two courses before
it, one is constitutional, the other is revolu-
tionary. The right to take either cannot be
questioned But the revolutionary right can
only be justified by necessity. If our repre-
sentatlyes adopt revolutionary methods in
the absence OF some apparent necessity they
cannot be justified either by their own con-
sciences or by their constituents. If they
submit the question of calling constitution
al convention to the people, in the manner
prescribed by our present Constitution, there
will be ample time for the people to consider
The question and vote inteligently. If they
determine 10 oct in tho naattor outsido tho
Constitution they should be prepared to show
wherein the necessity exists or the people
will hold them to Il strict account. We may
submit 10 revolution under the stress of ne
cessity but we are not willing that ours
should become government of revolution.
WHY DO WE WANT New Constitution :?
Is it in the expectation of getting one that
shall be absolutely perfect? If SO, what hu-
man work can be pointed to as sample of
perfection? What right have we TO expect
to obtain perfect instrument? 1.-THE Con.
stitution we expect to make is to contain
some imperfections which will require amend.
ment, why not amend the one we now have
If our present Constitution has some features
which we do not wish to change why should
we run the risk of losing them for the sake
Of changing others? Our present Constitu-
ton was the honest work of as able body
of men as ever assembled in Maryland. If
their work is not good enough to last twenty
years what encouragement have we to SUBJ
NIT the same task to another convention
which cannot be superior? Why not hold
fast to that which is good and amend that
which is bad?

THE HOME RULE BILL.

Gladstone Summons the Liberals to Meet
Thursday to Discuss Concessions.
LONDON, May 25.-The upshot of to-day's
meeting of the cabinet is virtually move
in the direction Of concession to the disaf
fected liberals. Several of the the minis
ters urged that clause "a, of the home rule
bill, be eliminated. After long discus
sion it was decided to leave the matter in
Gladstone's hands, to deal with it as he
might think fit. His mind was apparently
quickly made up, for early in the evening
the government whips were instructed to
summon the rank and file of the liberal
party to general meeting on Thursday,
when notifications of the home rule bill
will be announced, in orderto preserve the
government from defeat on the second
reading. The Harrington section main
tain their enmity to the bill, and will not
attend the liberal conference. The minis
ters are confident that with session of
thirty-tive radical dssents and "doubtfuls''
they will still have majority of forty.
The bill will be dropped after the second
reading, 1t is probable that parliament
will be dissolved in the autumn. If the
Gladstone government be returned, the
winter session will be devoted exclusively
to the discussion of the home rule bill.

New YORK, May 26.-To-day when Herr

Mr.. Lawler, of Illinois, read a protest
against the bill from the Knights of Labor
Of Chicago, and opposed the bill as taxing
cheap food product out of existence.

to exclude from that definition the product
of milk or cream where additional color
ing matter was used.

THE CHINESE BILL.

ldE CHINESE BILL.
WASHINGTON, May 26.-The bankruptcy
bill having been read through, Mr.. Van
Wyck asked that it be temporarily laid
aside in order to take up the bill providing
for the taxation of railroad grant lands.
This having been agreed to, the latter bill
was taken up. Mr.. Blair offered an amend
ment, to which Mr.. Van Wyck had no OBJ
lection, and which was agreed to, providing
that in any sale of land under the bill the
United States might become preferred
purchaser. and that in such case the lands
might be restored to the public domain.
Mr.. Blair offered another amendment pro-
viding that the valuation of the lands sub
jected to taxation shall, in the territories,
be subject to revision by the secretary of
the interior.
Mr.. Sherman asked for the suspension of
the taxation bill, in order to take UP the
bill heretofore reported by him from the
committee on foreign relations supple
mentary and amendatory of" the Chinese
immigration bill of 1884. Unanimous con.
sent being given, the Chinese bill was taken
up. Mr.. Sherman explained that the bill
was simply intended to explain the mean
ing of the existing law relative to Chinese
immigration. 1t was legislation against
men because they were laborers and be-
cause they belonged to a certain race, which
was against the fundamental principles of
this republic, namely, that labor was hon
orable. and that no discrimination should
be made against men on account of race.
The bill was postponed to future day and
the senate adjourned.

".JOhn Browns Body

ATwelfth Massachusetts, volunteer writes
to the Philadelphia Ledger: The tune OF
"John Brown" was adapted from a camp
meeting tune, "Say, brothers will you meet
usS" This, in turn, was modelled from a
song written for fire company, "Say, bum
mers will you meet us?" The words origi-
mated with members of the "Tiger Battal-
ion," Massachusetts, Volunteer Militia; and
as these members subsequently enlisted in
the Twelfth Massachusetts, Volunteer In
fantry webster RegimenU, We naturally
claim words and music Of the John Brown
Song" 1t first appeared in April, 1861, in
quartet of the Tigers"-Jenkins, Ed
gerly, Purnette and John Brown-and was
simply a sort Of joke on the name OF the
last mentioned. He was a Scotchman, and
failed to see any point in the
witticism, which, of course, only made
1t more lasting. The Twelfth Massachu-
setts sang 1t In Boston harbor, at Fort War,
ren; were the first to sing 1t in New York
city, July, 1861, where 1t made sensation,
and continued chanting it until II had be-
come so common property as to have lost
all novelty. Two Of the quartet are now
living in Boston, Mass. John Brown was
drowned in Virginia, June, 1862, and Jen-
kins' whereabouts are unknown. All we're
