fr— nr —————————— CENTRE HALL REPORTER. ——— FRIDAY, MAR. 6th 1800. The Constitutional Amendment. After a great deal of backing-and- filling floundering, the negro suffrage amendment has at last passed both Houses in the following form : Be it resolved, &e., two thirds of both Houses concurring, that the following amendment to the Constitution of the United States be submitted to the Leg- islatures of the several States, and when ratified by three-fourths thereof, it shall be part of said Constitution. ARTICLE 15. The right of the citi- zens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the Uni- ted States, or by any State, on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude. SkcrioN 2. The Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appro- priate legislation. The World says: This differs from the bill as it came from the Senate by dropping the right of the negroes to hold office and omitting religion and education. We have strong hopes that this amendment will not be rati- fied by three-fourths of the States. should encourage the friends of State rights to make a vigorous opposition to the amendment in every State where there is an inch of ground to fight up- on. Judge Woodward made the point of ment ought to be submitted to the President for his approval. His point of order was ruled out by the Speaker, new, and cited various authorities, Court, in support of his ruling. The language of the Constitution, taken but almost necessitates, Judge Wood- ward's interpretation ; and the author- ities on the other side, so far as the re- ved, give no satisfactory reasons for de- viating from th: strict language of th Constitution. 0 . Speaker Colfax also gave no reasons, relyinz upon mere pre- they are strong enough to justify an opinion that the precedents will never he reversed. to the President for his approval ? Evi- dently as a sceurity against the possi- ble haste ar mistakes of Congress. REL DL UL The Cause and the Remedy. The Metropolitan Record. in discus- gesting the means of getting rid of it comes directly te the cause and the remedy. Jt says: “It is idle to speculate upon the eases of the lax morality that almost ey.ory- where stares usin the face. It is the worst affectation in the world to pretend mot to be eonseious of them. A wick- ed civil war breeding corruption at every pore of the body politic; the ele- vation of bad men to office ; the degra- dation of labor; a debased paper cur- rency, stimulating false values, and giving free reign to all manner of ex- travagance and luxury tell the whole story. The corrective, no doubt, will come in good time, but the very first step to a change for the better, it seems to us, is the annihilation of the wicked party, to whose baneful influences di- rectly or indirectly, so many crimes, social aud political. are justly attribu- ted. Tothat end let good men labor, and the labor, we are p rsuaded will ded — | A Strange Claim. | Mr. Summer has been a number of | days past, pres<ing a claim of Massa- | chusetts upon the treasury, for services | rendered the country during the war of 1812-15. It would be interesting to know what those services were. If his. | tory is to be credited, the authorities of that State prohibited the drafting of her citizens into the armies of the Re. public, then at war with Great Britain, or the marching of her militia to repel an invading foe upon our northern lines :—and furthermore, that the Hart- ford Convention intended to effect the secession of the New England States | from the Union and place them under the protection of the same foe, origina- ted in Massachusetts ynder the special guardianship of the Essex Junto, treasonable eabil made u p of the most influential citizens of DBos- ton. If services were rendered hy that State of a value so great as to oyerbal- ance her treasonable acts and designs, ageravated, as they were, by their oc- currence in the face of a foreign ene- my, let them be paid for. But it can- not be denied that a suspicion is thrown over the claim by thelong delay in pre- senting it : more especially as bash- fulness or modesty neverstood in the way of interest with the citizens of Massachusetts. It, therefore, looks very much as if they had been waiting for their unworthy conduct to be for- gotton before putting iv their bill and places, but should leave such selection to cabinet officers, who would be re- | iponsible for their efficiency, It is ai Raa: ‘ 'O | that he relies much on this doctrine of Pacific Railroad Company tells the | responsibility and intends to have the story of the continued progress of that | heads of departments as untrammeled work.

The New York Post, the leading R - publican journal of that eity, referring to the veto of the copper tariff’ bill by President Johnson, remarks: The President's veto of the copper tariff bill is a brief and pointed sum mary of the leading arguments against it. The facts set forth in outline by Mr. Johnson conclusively show the bill to be a scheme for plunder, sure to prove injurious to the revenue, and unjust and oppressive to the people. They were given in detail in the Post ( while the bill was pending, and no an- | swer was made to them, either in Con- gress or in the press, by the represen- | tatives of the monopolists. Against a demonstration of its wrong the bill was passed through both Houses by a ma- jority which feared to offend the band of conspirators that were to profit by it. Ln The following passage appears in will of Sol. Smith, the actor, who died a few days ago in St Louis: “I re- quest that no one will wear mourning for me, as I expect to go immediately into a world of happiness, at which my friends should rejoice. It is my spe- cial wish that my body may not be dressed up in a suit as if alive but that it be dressed up in an old-fashion chroud, the head resting on a small pillow, if conveniently at hand.” eerie it A am———— A correspondent of the Country Gentlemen says that if a sheep or a calf is covered with a rubber or leather spread, or a thick blanket, and a tobacco smoke be made under this covering, every tfck or nit will be des- troyed in halt an hour or less.
