color.slo,. Debt.

Senate Bill No. 22S, by Senator Sell
domridge. providing for a constitution
al amendment to take care of the In
debtedness Of the state, gives a state
ment Of the debt already accrued.
The first part Of the proposed amend
ment is to provide against the piling up
Of another such debt as that which
now faces the state, and the second
part provides for the payment Of the
entire debt which now exists. ~
1t is set forth in section that the
state shall not contract any debt except
for the purpose Of erecting public
buildings for the use Of the state, to
suppress insurrection. defend the state
or, In time of war. to assist the nation
al government. The present constitu-
ton Is construed by many to provide
for the same thing, but instead Of par
ticularly setting forth that moneys
shall be expended for the state by the
governor only in times Of war and in
surrection, 1t adds cases of emer-
gency,s which has been construed by
governors to cover all manner of ex-
penses and deficiencies. The express
language of Senator Seldomrfdge's
amendment will leave no doubt about
this matter. ll aes

debt In any one year for public build
each dollar Of valuation of taxable
property within the stant. It is further
proposed that 1t shall not be lawful
for the General Assembly to appropri-
ate money except for insurrections and
war, In excess of the revenue for the
preceding two years. At present ap-
propriatiOns are made on auticipafed
revenue.

present indebtedness by an issue OF

SECTIONAL UNITY.

"The States yields 10 none in its
desire to remote sectional unity and
t. 'brdge over the bloody chssm,
along high aud honorable lines. 1t
believes the time has come when the
men of this nation ought to lay aside
foolish prejudices and strive to bury
sectional animosities; but it must
Insist that this burying process shall
not be a one-sided affair. We aie
quite willing to 60 half way in the
good work, but not single inch
further. We are willing to forget
the faults and 10 forgive the wrongs
perpetrated by Lincoln aud Grant
Whenever the North getsoready to
do the same part by Davis and Lee,
AID not one moment earlier. We are
willing to hold up Lincoln to tn
admiration of the children OF the
South the very moment the North
will agree to hold up Davis in the
same role to the children Of the
North. We are willing and anxious
for fraternity, but we should spurD
ii with unutterable contempt if the
conditions upon which 1t is to be
purchased be not absolutely equal
and fair to both sectlous. The day
kss never beer, aud God forbid that
It ever should come when the South
will be ashamed of her history aud
her tradihons-of her Davis and her

Well said! The words of the States
are patriotic; manly sentiments to
which the Caucasian gives its hearty
endorsement with a thousand and
more fervent smens.
