The
exception altudefitit, is a proposition to
restore that featitre of the old Constitution
abrogated in 1850, which allowed coun
ties, townships and municipal :corpora.
'tions to lend their credit to aid in the con
struction of railroads. Unless submitted
separately, the last proposition would be
likely to defeat the one relating to the Ju
diciary, whioh,,otherwise, could not fail'
to be ratified.
Tun szmouncauxur made yesterday
that the bill allowing interested parties to
give testimony in Courts, had passed both
branches of the Legislature, applying only
to certain , counties ? and Allegheny not
one of them, created considerable feeling
hereabouts, as on no question of reform
are our people more pined in - advocacy.
The slight, however, is folly explained
by the; telegrams la3Vevening. Alle
gheny, it seems, waaincluded,in another
bill which was matte& 'yesteiday in the,
House, and so.amended as to make it
getral, law, and passed.. The Senate
non-concurred in 'the amended part and
thus the ruder rests. • The, Legislature
should not' for an instant hesita r te tO make
a law-so just and equitable 'apply -to all
the Courts in the Commonwealth. The
eiperlinent has been tried'elsewherit with
,most satisfactory results, and no good
reason can be put forward why Pennsyl
vania should remain on the old beaten
track discarded by more progressive local
ities. Whether the law be made general
or not, we urge our members to see to it,
that Allegheny county be placed among
those securing fthe reform, for our people
are unanimous in the demand that it shall
be made. .
REPENTANCE * STILL OPEN.
The Xlrth Article has been, atified by
thirteen Legislatures, all of which were
chosen last year upon the broad issues
presented by a living and progressive Re
publicanism. They were chosen in
plain view , of the Democratic allegation—
reiterated by every orator and'journalist
of that party, and presented as the lead
ing Democratic, objection to the Republi
can Presidential and State tickets of 'l3ll—
a Republican triumph would Mean
the inaurtration of the political equality
of all citizens, irrespective of color or
race. On that view, then, we conquered:
on that issue the XVth amendment to
the Constitution was altogether justified,
has been duly proposed, and ratified by
nearly one half of the needful number of
Legislatures.
More than that! Since the proposition
of the Article, four States, and four only,
have held general elections, and each of
the four ratifies thatratification, re-aflirm
lag the great princiVe which last Nov
ember proclaimed, and which the new
Article embodies. , New Hampshire,
Michigan, Connecticut and Rhode Island
have, within the past month, again en
dorsed the Republican doctrine of equal
ity before all the laws, by majorities
showing, in each ease, an increased per
centage of the total vote, cast on the aide
of progressive liberty. In all these States
the same issue was again presented—and
once more we have the same answer.
How long will a purblind partizanship
lead the opposition, stumbling along from
disaster to disaster, in their suicidal re
sistance to en inexorable justice? Why
will they net exhibit, even at this late
hour, some reasonable degree of sense,
and unite with us upon the wise policy
Which the EV'th Article embodies, that of
taking the question, which is so distaste
iial to them, outof American polidce for
ever? The wisest of , the opposition lead
ers would have been glad to do this last
year; the policy which declined a course
obvious to their prudence, and which once
more bound the Democracy to be the
victims of their own traditional mistake,
was openly deplored by the best of their
journalists and statesmen. We cannot
forgethow• urgently 'that party watt en
treated, even after the unfortunate nomi
nations at. New York, to abandon the
obnoxious candidates and the fatal poi:
icy, and to come squarely Atti to the sup
port of a really Democratic Liberty and
Equality. The result ofNoveraber as

people alike concurring in this conviction,
that the proper work of the session can
not otherwise be completed, we shall teal
a renewed confidence that the just claims
of the situation are not to be ignored by
the House.
Indeed, it'is apparent that the message
of Wednesday was a word in season,
fitly spoken. It has convinced the House,
not only that something should be done,
but that it is a very simple thing which
the case requires. it may: be true, as a
Senator declares, that no further legisla
tion is required, for. the holding of an
election in Virginia, but the Honse at
last peiceives that it must cover the whole
ground, and that...this can properly be
done by clothirig the Eletutive,' at once,
with'the needful power to 'order the elec
tionsin Texas and Mississippi as well, 'Sub
mitting the three Constitutions respective
ly, by sections or otherwise, and to make
inch other provisions as will ensure in
each state a fair and orderly expressicmof
•the popular sentiment. This looks very
much like abandoning the legislative
ftinctionsin,a bnip to• the Execntive !Rs
cretin; but, if it be the best we can have,
it is a good 'deal better than nothing, -,lt

which Gen. GlexT - has inspired' Repre

And we should be glad to t see Georgia in

House a few days since, makes merely
the preliminary provisions for the organi

the approval of Congress at its next ses

comprehends the only really important
feature of this bill. That section reads
'The census shall exhibit •the number
and condition of the population of the
United States as it may exist on the lat
day of June of the year in which the cen

The bill still hangs in the. Senate
Tna Pittsburgh Dispatch has this' re
port from Washington :
Tour Representative, Hon. Jas. S. Neg
ley, succeeded in getting the bill ' , la re
lation to bridges across the Ohio river,"
reported by the House Committee yes
terday, and had the bill immediately
sent to the Senate where he has sanguine
bopips it Wi ll al s o be favorably enter-
Miffed. He feels confident of Its passage
in both Houses. The struggle for and
against the bill was well fought and stub.
bornly maintained through four separate
meetings. On both sides the enormous
interests to be affected were steadily kept
in view. The commercial Interests of
the navigation of the Allegheny, lielonon
gahela and Ohio rivers concerned in this
bill aggregate, Gen. Negley stated, ;100,-
000,000, and employed, directly and indi
rectly, 30,000 people!

which was adopted, and the Society or
ganized with the following' officers:
President, Rev. W. H. Hunter, Secreta

bury. - Revs. W. H. Brown and D. E.
Asbury,.candidates for orders,
and J. W. Asbury, Thornton 'Hurley and
W. A. J. Philips, candidates far full con

woodsen i Esq., and Rev. W. n:B wn,
after which Rev. Dr. h. H. Nesbitt' and
Rev. R. T. Miller,' of the M. E. Church.
(white) Pittsburgh, were Introduced to
the Conference.
Bishop Payne closed the morning ses
sion with an eddreseto the Ministers on
their 'duties, urging upon them all a
faithful, zealot:El and untiring devotion
to and labor in the work.
At three o'clock In the afternoon the
ordination of the newly' elected Elders

services, which were of* solemn atidini
ipiressive character. At the cOnclusion of
these services, Rev. B. F. Tanner, editOr

mon appropriate to theioacatdon... ,
In the evening, at seven lend a half
o' clock, a meeting of the Missionary Ss-
Oiety WBB held, Rev. JJ W. Devine pre
siding.. After the usual introductory ex
ercises, addresses were delivered, by
Revs. Lewis Woodson and W. H. Hun

who argued that upon the extent of mis
sionary work done in and through its
ministry, depended the future prosperity
of the African Church; All of the ad
dresses were able and developed consid
erable thought and acquaintance with
the subjects discussed. The proceedings
were interspersed with excellent music
by the char. which added in a great
measure to tho interest of the occasion.
It is expected the business of the Con
ference will be finished to-day.
The Proposed New Market Place—
Sites Examined by the Committee—No
Selection Made.
The Market Committee of City Coun
cils met yesterday afternoon and visited
the various sites suggested for the pro
posed new market place for the accom
modation of the people residing in the
upper and outlying wards of the city.
The first site visited watt that on the cor
ner of Magee street and Fifth avenue,
property held by Meaara. Watson and
Magee. The dimensions of thisiand, on
which a number of common buildings
are erected, were not furnished. It is
within five minutes walk of the Court
House,.and those who . tidvocate its selec
tion argue that at nc/ other point can so
many people be hwonveniently accommo
dated.
The next site examined was that on
the south-eastern corner of Fifth avenue
and- Stevenson street, now covered by
B. C. & J. IL Sawyer's soap factory, and
Pier, Dermas & Co.'s brewery. It has a
front on Fifth avenue of 130 feet, run
ning along Stevenson street to Forbes
street 260 feet, exclusive of Beech alley,
24 feet wide, whieli'divides the property.
A sewer is to run along Forbes street
in the rear, while there is ope already
constructed on Fifth avenue. On the
ground stand the soap factory and brew
ery; both large and good buildings,
which would furnish considerable ma
terial for a new structure. Underneath
all there is a dry cellar ten feet deep, an
object "in' Importance, should the 'Own
mittee select that site. The location is
very good for the purpose, but the figures
are rather steep. c , • • • -
At tae corner .of 'Reed • and Fnitim
streets, and lacing'un Crawford 'street,
the property of Messrs. tileolseSteckeer,
and William Ward, was examined. The
site is an out of the way sort "of a place,
on the side of a hill. It contains a few
'common buildings. -'''
The estate of Jacob' Tomer,e:Zect., on
Filth avenue, nearly 'opposite the Relief
engine house, was examined. It has a
front of 140 feet on the avenue and runs
back • 200 feet to Colwell street. The
principal objection to this place is Its
hilly characiter,,whieh would render ex.
pensive grading necessary.... There are a
few old buildings erected on this ground..
At the corner of Miltenberger street
and Fifth. avenue a fine site was ex
amined, being a part of the old Clark
beer _garden. we believe, and now owned
by Win. B. Lyon and others. .It has a
front of 240 feet _on the avenue,. and a
depth of 120 feet to Beech alley, running
along Miltenberger street. <ln the rear
there .is another plot:of the same size,
fronting on Forbes , street..:Theae- two
to -. 240x240 , feet, .exclusive of -the'
• alley, are offered the city.. ; There are no'
improvements on the ground: , The dia.
tame from the Court. House is three
quarters of, a . mile, neat. measure: The
property hopiero in the neighborhood
strongly urge a choice in favor. of the
' locality, but the CoMuilt j tee quietly Hs
tened to all they had to Imr,. two gave no,

LoAr DON, April B.—in the House of
Commons this evening Hon. Robert
Loire, Chancellor of the Exchequer, sub
mitted the annual bqdget, in explana
tion of which he said the Ministry pro
posed to , deal separately with general
expenditures. Those for the Abysain
,
ran war e stimates, made' by Hon. George
_
Enni,,his predecessor in office, were
78,000,000 pounds, 'while the recelpta
Were 725,600,00'peunds, leaving a deficit
,
of 500,000 pininde, which 'had to be met
this year. Mr. LoWe estimated the ez
; nditureaof the present year at 08,250 e
&Midi, showing a reduction of 2,750,
000 pounds from the estimated_expmdi
tares last year, which was given chiefly'
in the admiralty and war office. He es
timated the revenue of the present
year at 73,000,000 pounds, or an 'exam
over last year of 250,000 pounds. ' So,-if
the Abyssinian war werb not to be pre.
vided for, the surplus would be 4;500,000
pounds. The whole: expensa tif the
A.bysabilan war was 9,900,000 pounds, of

The, country , has still 4,000,009 of this'
amount' to pay. The surplua .of - the
present Year would just balsams the
Abyssinian anitthe general deficit. Un
der the circumstances, said the Chancel
lor, it is desirable to raise &further sum,
by taxation: He. regarded 'the 'present
means.of collection as expensive and un
satisfactory, and said its only warrant
was in its antiquity. He proposed to
collect; the assessed taxes by means'
of excise licenses, granted at , - the
commencement year, on - &
return to be furnished by the tax-payer, -
the
the , income tax to be collected in the
same manner. Bythese measures 8,250,-
000 pounds will lbe brotight into the ,
,financial year in addition,to the amount
heretofore., collected. Out this amount

Mr. Hunt, late Chancellor of the

by Captain Donaldson, is not, it apPears,
destined to sink into oblivion' as quietly
as seemed probabtea few days ago. Some
unexpected and important developments
have occurred which promise to, bring
the case again before the Criminal Cliurt
in a little time.
It may be remenibered that the rend- r;•- , ,
pal witnesses were ' two lie/roes named
Glover and Samuel Ray, who both disap- ~,-.
