CONSTITUTION MAKING.

One who has followed With any close
ness the process of constitution making in
tire four conventions now in session pre-
paratory to the admission of new states
must be struck with the apparent lack of
originality and the dIsinclination to expert
mcnt which the details of their work
reveals. 1t is thirteen years since last
stale was admitted. In only few of the
larger and more important states have
new constitutions been adopted within
ieoent years. Meantime the inadquacies
cf constitutional remedies and constitu-
tionAl guarantees have become obvious.
IL ought to be possible to-day, in fram ng
an organic law for a new commonwealth,
to make distinct advance upon most of
the time-vorn document that fix the
limits within which state legislatures are
to act. Yet we find in the proceedings OF
these bodies, little but routine: the strong.
est moving force appealing to tn EN- seems
to De desire Of imitation and reverence
for precedent.
The fact is but reviewed proof of the
inherent conservatism of the American
people. Limited III Our political action
only by the will of the majority, accord
ing to the pure democratic theory, We are,
in reality, cautious OF Innovation aud
timorVus OF change. II Is because tins is
so that the republic has endured

Why the Bill Failed.

An attempt was recently made in the
Georgia Legislature to pass bill to tax
dogs. The bill failed to pass, and the
reason is probably found in the follow
ing "unanswerabie" argument Of Nc
liver, the colored member from Liberty
County:
"Mr. Speaker: It gives me much
pleasure, sir, to address an able speaker.
sir, to address an able speaker as thou
art, expert in all customs. It give me
pleasure say, sir, to address you. I
stand before you, sir, asPaul did before
Agrippa, sir. Twas once for the tax of
dogs, but when found my constitu-
ents are against also turn against it,
sir. lam against the dog tax, sir, be-
cause the dog is the poor mans proper
ty. II a dog is vicious put the buck
shot to him, sir. What would some of
the poor country people do without a
'possum dog. A 'possum in a poor
mans home is like stall fed beef is to
you, sir. So I hope that this honorable
body will vote down the dog tax, sir.
When the Yankees left us we had
neither q hoe nor an az. Ifit had not
been sor our good friends what would
have become of us? Multum in a

b eonstancy of the Confederate Soldier.
baltimore Sun.1

Lord Wolseley has written some in
teresting articles on the devotion Of the
Southern soldiers to their great COM
mander, Lee, and has mentioned in
stances of conspicuous courage in refer
ring to them. But perhaps the most
remarkable example Of their devotion
was to be found in the perfect content
with which they bore hunger almost to
starvation, and hardships that could
not be heavier, while they knew that
their leader was sharing their suffering.
Towards the close Of the war it was the
custom of the Federal soldiers, when
they captured Confederate, to exam
inc his haversack. In this way, better
than any other, they were able to form
conclusions respecting the condition of
the Confederate commissary depart
ment. Man must live, and as the
soldier carried, his rations, if he has any,
the contents of his haversack will be
likely to tell tale that his tongue
would not. The laid and comfort"
thus derived from the tell tale ration
bag may be illustrated from the ex-
perience of a Virginia soldier who was
captured at Five Forks, about a month
before Lees surrender. He was "cut
off" while foraging, and on being taken
into the Federal camp, his captors,
according to the custom, explored his
haversack. "And such yell as they
gaver said the old soldier in Baltimore
the other day-he lives in Baltimore
"you would have thought I was re-
ceiving an ovation...I had in my haver-
sack an ear of corn and two old cab.
bage stalks that I had pulled up in a
garden-the last years growth. It was
all had, and I had been nibbling on
them since the day before. Johnny
said one of the Yankees, If I'd "a been
you I'd "a deserted two years ago. But
I amt that kind of & Johnny said I.
Life isn't worth much anyhow, but to
live and be a deserter too would make
it not worth living atall.' was kepta
prisoner for month after Lees surren-
der. I got pretty sick of the kind of
government they gave US in Virginia
for several years after the war, and I
came here to get under decent one.
I've been here nearly twenty years, and
/ have been working hard for living,
but I would rather 60 back to my ear
of corn and cabbage stalk than go back
to the black-and-tan days OF 1870 in old
Virginia."
