Thh opponents of the late Constitutional amend ment which was adopted by the two Houses of Congress a few days since, base their hopes of securing Its defeat on the alledgcd failure to secure the necessary two-thirds rote In order that It might be "proposed." The Constitution Itself distinctly proscribes what is necessary to secure Its own amendment. "The Congress whenever two-thirds of both Houses shall deem H necessary, shall propose amendments to this Constitution." The Age, yesterday moraine:, In treating on the subect, gives oticrance to the following lucid argument: "The 'Houses' are made up of Senators and Representatives from the several States consti tuting the Union. There are now thirty-six States, all of which, with the exception of Texas, are performing 'all their tunct'ons as States,' ftyf Utey are denied by the radicals representation in the 'Houses,' to whwh is delegated the duly of proposing amendments to the Constitution. How, then, can the rpcent amendment be considered as 'proposed' to the States In a constitutional manner f It was nut acted upon by 'two-thirds of both Houses,' and hence is no more an amondment to the Constitution than it it had been pioposed by the Legislature of a single . The assertion made in this extract is decidedly startling. There are "thirty-six Slates, but they are denied representation," is something new. We had fondly believed that Pennsylvania was represented, but if we can believe the Age to mean mean what it says, such a statement is denied. We will take it for granted, however, that it meant to ' say eleven States are unrepresented, and will glance at the rest of their argument. The great question rests on the word Congress. What, constitutes Congress ? It is necessary to have two-thirds of both Houses. Now what number of members go to make up each House? The Const.tution expressly provides that a "majority of each House shall constitute a quorum to do business," and each House con sists of the total number of members duly elected, and who have been decided to be duly elected by the House itself. The issue was started at the outbreak of the Rebellion, and "was settled by a declaration that the members elected and admitted should be considered as the full House. , Hence, it is really necessary that only two-thirds ot the House, whenever a quorum is present, should adopt the amendment in order that it should be proposed to the States. Had this question been settled In any other manner, the wheels of legislation would have been clogged at the outset of the war, and not only, could no steps have been taken to subdue, but all steps which have been taken are virtually illegal. ,' " A majority con stitutes a quorum to do business," to take ' all necessary legislation into - Its hands, including the revenue, the vetoes, and all the laws. The Mime experience occurs in regard to the passnse over a veto as is found in tho provision for amendments. , Two-thirds of each House must assent; and as the President did not hesi tate to acknowledge the Civil Rights law when it secured two-thirds, and as the Democracy and the Age did not hesitate then, what gross incon sistency it 19 now to make issue on what they have heietofore quietly asente 1 to without de" bate ! . If it be true, as the Age says, that all the States must be represented, and that two-thirds of the whole number of apportioned districts, or two-hundred and thirty-nine, must assent, how easy it becomes to stop the adoption of any amendment I Under such ruling as this nearly every bill pnssed within four years will be illegal; our national debt is an unauthorized imposition, and its payment is not secured. Such most be the logical deduction. Again, if the Constitu tional amendment was not legally proposed, then the Constitutional amendment prohibiting slavery was not; and even granting that the war power treed all in the Rebel States, yet we must return to bondage those of Delaware and Ken tucky. It is well to look at the full effect of a principle before you favor it. . The Secretary of State, by transmitting to the Governments of the various States certified copies of the amendment, has officially pro claimed the fact of its proposal. The only question which jet remains is the probability of its adoption. The assent of twenty-seven States is necessary. The Age grants that twenty two will ratify it, but is puzzled to kuow how we can secure the remaining five. We can, in addition to those granted us, count confidently cm Maryland and Mew Jersey, while it is not im possible that Kentucky will also assent. We will thus have twenty-five at once, while for the remaining two we must trust to the advance ment of the age, the same which has made Marj land and Missouri do in five years what, in 18G0, it would have been ruinous to propose. Time and a sense of justice will secure the assent of all to anjthlng that is inherently jua. ,, Thk Coming Cflebation of tob Foubth of Jclt. The coming celebration of the Fourth of July pr mises to be one of the most notable ones ever held in our city. On that day our brave Boldierswill give back luto the keeping of the old Commonwealth their flags, riddled aud torn by the storms of battle, and baptized in the blood of our bravest and best. The widows and orphans of the fallen will ibe there to see. It will be a spectacle such awill probably never occur again in the history of Pennsylvania. From present Indications the attendance will be very large, and prepprations for the celebration are being made on a scale of unusual magnitude. How Abb the Miodtt Vallen ! Fbank Blaie refused to take the voter's oath at a recent elec tion in Missouri, whereupon his vote was re fused, the same as any o' her man's would have been. Fbank sued the election judges for damages. The case has Just been decided, and Frank Is beaten. What a coutrast between the miserable, trifling business in which Feank Blaib Is nowengaged, and those former honora ble labors of his in behalf of freedom in Mis souri which lent such lustre to hi name I Texas. The 'Conservatives," which mesns the Rebels, are said to have carried the Texas Stale election. Of course; If the Southern Unionists are to fight the battle with onlv a part of their forces, the Rebels will best them every time. Tab House of Rpbksbmtativb8, yesterday, passed the Senate bill amending the Pacific Railroad act, so as to allow the road to be located ou the most direct route from Fort Riley to Denver. Li kb Old Times. One Richmond editor, "armed and equipped," was looking after an other yesterday. He had not found the object of his search at the latest dates. The First Gun ! The Connecticut Senate yes terday ratified the Constitution! amendment by a vote of 11 to 6. The House is sure for it. Good for old Connecticut ! The Senate passed, yesterday, with some amendments, the House bill for the continuance of the Bureau of Freedmcn and Refugees. EXTENSIVE SWINDLING OPERATION.
