TILE AtTFPRA.GE AMENDMENT.
• Atler melt, debate and conference, the two
Jiousi , s,of Congress' agreed last week upon
proposing to the Legislatures of the several
States an amendment to the Constitution of
the Unltial,States, in the following terma:
Anvicuri The right of the ritii.ens of
the United States to vote shalt not be denied
or abridged by the United States, or by any
'State, on account of race, color, or preyinus
condition of servitude.
SEC' 2. That Congress shall have pomE:to
epforee this article by' appropriate le'elsTa
ton.
i from the bill as it came from
tae•Setrate by dropping the right of the, ne
groes to kohl office and in omitting religion
and c'thtcation. — lt trill now go Out to the
Legislatures of the States for ,ratification by
•
a majority vote. ..-The altprovai of three
fourths of them is required. - This will re
quire the Radicals to Control twenty-eight
State They have at this time
not more tluin twenty-sO in their-power,nrid .
:)( these there are -seVeral which cannot now
he fully rehetion to adopt the amendment.
Even Mr, tinniner and Mr. Boutwell ex;
prerSed the opinion that it cannot be ratified;
awl their doubts or despair should encourage
the friends of State righis to make a vigorous
tipposition to the amendment in every State
‘there there an inch of ground. to tight
upon. What will the present Legislature - of
ibis State do iu regard to it? It was not
elected with reference to any such issue. Will
t he' Radical majority dare to force mg' o suf-
iritge upon Pynnspritnia without first alloNN -
intr, the people to express an pinion upon it?
It they 'do, we predict that , hey will excite
a stOrm of indignation whicl ivlll sweep the
Republican patty out of power at the next
ante election. '
sHALL NEGRO SUFFRAGE - RE
FORCED ON THE PEOPLE WITH
OUT TIIEIR CONSENT
In every district , of Pennsylvania there are
scores of Republieurts, tti ho profess to be
openly and irrevocably opposed to negrO
suffrage. The time has come for these gen
tlemen, if they arc sincere in their profes
sions, to show their sincerity by something
more than words. A constitutional 'amend
ment has passed Congress, anti will soon be
soliMitted to all the fitate Legislatures,which
makes negro suffrage universal in this coun
try.
, It is expected that the Legislatures will
be hared by party drill to pass it; 'slid thus
this offensive provision will be engrafted up
on the Cimstitution, without fin opportubity
for the people to be heard, and against the
wiSlas of a very -large majority. Shall or
shall not this base wroposition, SO inimical to
-41 our ideas of a I . 3epublican l zovernment,
prevail It rests with the people= themselves
to decide, and especially upon" that portion
of them who Ita . e hitherto been 'identified
with the Republican 'party-. While the• re
monstrances of -Democrats would' pa s fin-
Veded, the representatives of the 'dominant
t hirty at our several State capitals would not
Are to defy the seatiments of their known
pat ly friends, We urge, then, upon all,lle
publicans who do not want to see this odious
amendment made a part of the land, without
the people being conqnited,, to. take speedy
steps towards acquainting their repres'enta
t:ves with the'view s they entertain on the
sitbleet. In a few weeks more it may be too
late, and their neklect dlqw may be thacause
ftir serious regret in future. The following
remonstrance, got up without any party
idits,*should be circulauld in every school

THE ystmrEft ANcE quEwrioN.
The State Temperance Convention assem
bled in liarrisbirg last week, and a very lame
representation was present. 1 great many
re.4cilti Ilona were adopted, and aniong 'them'
the following:
"lltloleed, That the manufacture and sale
of Intoxicating drinks are everywhere a pub
lic injure, and Should be held to be a crime:'•
This, coming from temperate men, sounds
rather intemperate.' It is likely that liquor
will be manufactured just as long as "grass
grows and water runs," and any attempt at
:.stringent legislation, such as recommended
above, will only act as a stimulus to thou
sands to engage in its illicit manufacture in
isolatedlocahtita, and to dispose of it in
large quantities to persons who arc not in the
habit of drinking to excess, but who, in that
bvent, might be led to do so. Prohibition is
no remedy for the great social, evil of dram
drinking. Philanthropists may sketch with
' faithful accuracy the victims alcohol—of
shivering bankrupt debtors, besotted intel
lects. started wives and little ones, and the
final doom of the drunkard, but it remains
tole proven that prohibition Will cure these
horrid ulcers which gnaw at the vitals of so
many—even among the most intelligent
minds In the country. In godly Massachu
setts; with ler stringent prohibitory laws, it
is cal c cula led that t,28,000,000 'worth of liquor
is-still annually retailed. Our present laws
regulating the manufacture and sale of in
toxicating drinks are a humbug., ,It the la , ks.
established., no discrimination in favor of
persons to whom licenses should be graoted,
and then made 'it a penal offense tOmanurar
titre or sell adulterated; or polsonims
the evil Woul.l'in a measure be remedied.
Intemperance a terrible evil. No one
trill Air a moment question %hi 3, but we
,see nn boliition' to the difficulty- Which now
agitates tile teroperane'e element of theStute
ia.the , course•they desire to pursue. . The firat

2. It shows that the Company does a safe

3.-lt shows that the affairs of the COmpany

enable the Trustees to declare so large a divi ;

4.• It shows that the Convent Dave placed
just one-half df the annual premium to the

But few diseases require more attention
than colds and coughs, and few are more
generally 'neglected. How many persons,

a moment on its consequences. Remember
that neglected colds are frequently danger

to cure. A cold in the head produces a
cough, then comes pain in the edits, fever,
difficulty in breathing, and finally ends in

President Johnson has issued a• Farewell •
Address to his countrymen, in imitation of
"Washington and Jackson. lie defends his
administration, and is confident tile fitture
will do it Justice,
The Forty-first Congress was organized,
according to law, on the 4th inst. Vice
President Colfax made "a brief speech on
taking his seal io.the Senate Chamber. Hon.
James 'G. Blaine, of Maine, was elected
Speaker of the House.
The ceremony of inaugurating Oen. Griu
took place with great pomp. His eahittet
was not announced up to the hour we go to
press on Thursday afternoon.
Below is the new Presid t's inaugural ad
dress:
Citizen* o f the United Mate :
Your suffrage having elected me to the office
of Pleaidentpf the United /Mates, I have, in
ednfortnity with theConstitbtion of our coun
try, taken the oath.prescribed therein. I have
takenthis'enth . telthout mental reservation,
and with the determination to do to the best
Of my ability all that it requires of me. The
responsibilities of the position I feel, but tic
eept them without fear. The office has come
to me unsought- Lcommence its duties un
tranuneled. I bring to it a conscientious de
sire and determination to fill it to the best of
toy ability and to the satisfaction ofthe people.
On all leading questions agitating the public
mind. I. will always express inv views to Con
gress, and urge them according to- my judg
ment,: lad When Ithinkadvisabte will exert*

all laws will be faithfully. executed, whether
.they meet rurapproyator not. shall, on
all.subjects v have a potty tiirticoiningnd ; but

ple. Liws are to govern all alike—those op
posed as well as those who favor them.
know no method to secure the repeal of bad
or obnoxiouilaws so effective us their strin
gent execution. The country . having just
emerged from a great rebellion, many ques
tions will come up be- ore it for settlement in
the next four years which the preceding ad
ministrations have never had to deal with.
In meeting these it isdesired that they should
be approached calmly, without prejudice,
hate or sectional pride.reinembering that the
greatest good to the greatest; number is the
object to be attained. This requires security
of person, property and for religious and po
litical opinion ittevery part of our common
I I country, without regard to local - prejudice.
Laws to secure these ends will receive my
best' efforts for their enforcement.
- A great debt has been contracted in secur
ing to, us and our posterity the Union. The
payment of this, pnneipal and interest, as
well as a return to a specie basis as anon as
it can be accomplished without material dif
ference to the debtor clamp or country, must
'be provided for to protect the national honor.
-Every dollar of government. indebtedness
should be !mkt in gold, unless otherwise ex
pressly stipulated in the contract. Let it be
enderstood that no repudfauir of one farthing
of our public debt will be trusted in public
place, and it will go far toward strengtheniug
a credit which ought to be the best in the
world, and will ultimately enable us to re
place the debt with bouds bearing less inter
than we now pay.
To this should be added a faithful collec
tion of the revenue, a strict r ecountability to
the Treasury for every dollar collected, and
the greatest practicable retrenchment of ex
penditure in every department of 'govern
ment.
When we compare the paving capacity of
the country now,with ten States still in pov
erty from the effects of war, tilt soon to
emerge, I trust, into greater prosperity than
ever before, with its paying capacity. twenty
five years ago, and calculate what it proba
bly will be twenty-five years hence, who can
doubt the feasibility of paying every dollar
then with more ease than we now pay for
useless luxuries! Why, it looks as though
Providence had bestowed upon us a strong
box—the precious metals - locked up in. the
ate ile mountains of the far West, which wi
are now forging the key to unlock to meet
the very contingency that is now upon us.
Ultimately it may be necessary to. increase
the facilities to reach these riches, and it may
be necessary also that the general govern
ment should givelts aid to secure this access ;
but hat should only be when a dollar of ob
ligation to pay secures precisely the same
sort of dollar to use now, and not before.
Whilst the question of specie payments is
in abeyance, the prudent business man is
careful about contracting debts payable in the
distant future. The nation should follow the
same rule. A prostrate commerce is to be re
built and aU industries encouraged.
The young men of the country, thoie Who
from their age must be its rulers twenty-five
years hence, have a peculiar interest • in
maintaining the national honor. A moment's
reflection as to what will be our command
ing influence among the nations of the earth
in their day, if they are only true to them
'selves, should sit/spire' them with national
pride. All - divistons, geographical, political
and religious, can join in this common f•enti
ment.
flow the public debt iito be paid it specie
payments resumed is not so important as
that a plan should be adopted and acquiesced
in. A united determination to do is worth
more than divided councils upon the method
of doing. Legislation upon this subject may
not be necessary now, or even advisable, but
it will be when the Chill Law is more fully re
stored in all parts of the country and trade
resumes its wonted channels.
It will be my endeavor to execute all laws
in good faith, to collect all revenues assessed,
and to have them properly accounted for
and economically disbursed. I will, to the
best of my ability,appoint to office those who
will carry out this design. In regard to a
eign policy, I would deal with nations as
equitable law requires individuals with each
other, and I would protect the law abiding
citizen, whether of native or foreign birth,
wherever his rights are jeopardized or the
flag of our country floats. I. would respect
'the rights of all nations, demanding equal re-
Let for our own. If others depart from
rule in their dealings with us, we may
be compelled to follow their precedent.
The proper treatment of the original occu
pants of this land—the Indian—is one de
serving of careful study. I 'will favor any
course towards thetti which tends to their
civilization, christianization and ultimate cit
izenship.
The question of suffrage is due which is
likely to agitate the public so long as a por
tion of the citizens of the nation are excluded
from its privileges in any State. It seems to
we very desirable that this question should
be settled now, and I entertain the hope and
express the desire that it may be by the rati
fication of the fifteenth article of theltmend
meat to the Constitution.
In conclusion, I ask patient forbearance of
one towards another throughout the land,
and a determined cZort on the part of every
citizen to do his ahare towards cementing a
happy Union, and I ask the prayers of the
nation to Almighty God in behalf of this con•
summation.-
