What Saw us'em Some DoV
This is now Urn groat disturbing ques
tionos
orators aod t)re.fp>Uful sniyect of the
editorials of the press. A multitude of
theories hare been sprung, and inname*
rable plans suggested, for tbe settlement
of the
the Cooetilotional Amendtpent, to the
total destruction of Ihtf Son them gov
crnments apd tbe ruin of tbe Southern
people. It is conceded that the South
ern States ape now at thq mercy of an
intolerant tift apgMsMre majority,'who
have nnrestrained.cputroLof the |ejps|a
tion of the couafry,-and frdtn whtfm
little if any
It is now certain that tmrcmfstiradhlml
Arncndmcaf sqjaofed, ap4 sjtfc,
gestion iB. xJa,#s> ,to what alternative,
proposition tioagmss will presenta« the
condition of reetocwtie*. -The South in
the meantime stands upon the defensive.
So long as \j,-«s conceded that 4 is .ne
cessary that amendments of the Coasti*
tntion Age*,
fourths of the States to give them
legality, anil that, the Southern States
must, for this purpose, be counted in the
Union, those States can ' defeat any
amendment prestootqd te then).,,fiut,it
is not unliteljr thit‘“the ‘ resiles* and
aggressive sjiirit of Radiqnlmm ,mgy
prompt the Jacobin party to desist from
attempts Unonaetoltilre Costdhitntion nnd
resort to direct legislation to*accomplish
their vindietiyp. spumes.
In that event' thp Sooth wodW hare
no protection, and her best
would be summarily sacrificed. If the
Jacobin party coutipqep to ptogfess as
rapidly in the path of fanaticism as it
has done for tbe past twelve mouths, it
will soon arrive at point at which it
will be subAitdted for the roqnfrettfedts
and guarantees of the Constitution, and
Congress will become the supreme
ruling power without regard to the other
departments of the Government. This
result is, it possible, to bo avoided. If
there is any chance .for an honorable
adjustment of the national difficulties, it
should he tried. The welfare of thp
people, anctfhe priffepefrit/of the nation,
alike demand that there shall be a re
CO- c Jiatiou between the rival' and op
posing sections. There is. not as much
difference between the ‘ idterfests t>f the
two sections as the present estrange
ment would indicate, and it is much
easier to come to a satisfactory under
standing than most people suppose.
The proposition has been recently
made, and we notice has been dis
cussed within the last few days at some
length, and rfith muvh ability, by Judge
Nicholas, in the columns of the journal,
that a National Constitutional Conven
tion shall called at art-early day for
the purpose'of revising the Constitution
and incorporating such amendments as
may be cvemed necessary to conform
the Government to the changed condi
tion of things 'growing oat of the war.
We are disposed* to favor the proposi
tion tor many important reasons. .
First. Because in such a convention
the voice of the South would be heard
both in arguments for its rights and irt
protest against its wrongs and the
Schemes o the Jacobin leaders.
Second. The delegates elected to such
a convenuSti'wdtuhl cetne fresh from the
people, fully advised of their views, and
would thorelbfe fairly represent their
opinions, limy would to untratnmeled
by the desire fyr re election,. and their
action would be directed rather to the
public good that* to the interests of
party.
Third. Such" a T)o3y would represent
the whole natjon dad all bf its lUOftl-
interests, and would be, it nip flu.
eticed by party schemes, and would, in
all probability, be both honest and inde
pendent. It would take for its sterling
point the fact that the good of both sec
tions, and the prosperity of the nation,
required the restoration ot the Union,
and that snol >re Jforkktofr Mould rest
upon the bf' the eqaulity of the
States and itiatjee of ihe aeetimis. r .
'fftha. Constitution
adopted by such a body was not accept
ed it could be rejected by the vote of
one State over one-fourth of the whole
number of r j3|ie fi'oajh wo Jd
consequently b<s iH lie danger of losing 1
any right by going into such a conven
tion, while the North would lose none of
its power. *’ If nolhiltg Satisfactory
be agreed on, both shettohs' would be
left in thefpy££Vf4.Att>Cti<te in Wluch fhej>.
stand now. r jf’,’-
Fifth. The personal association and
the visrws of the pepre«en-j
tativc men *of the two sections
result in the adoption of a constitution
which woiM, I*3. gooecallir,. Atwentqhler
and whiclifw&§Ul featoro the century to
peace and harmony, and amply secure
the rights of all.
Surely no fair pr plausible .argument
can bo made against-such a proposition.
Such a convention.could do no hurt if jt
did no gobd, white the probabilities are
thnt its retails would'be eminently bene
ficial.
The constitution provides that Con
gress shall, upOwtbd application of the
legislatures’of tvomuu, 01 the several
bwtus, cat! a eutventiou for-proposing
amendments, which, when ratified by
three fourths of |h« States, shall beepnp,
a part or parts-of the (institution. '
Now suppMre- that tbd legislatures of
the ten excluded States, together with
Kentucky and MaryljUid. which would
constitute one this# of tlie Hiatus, should
pntposo tliiit such a coiivchUos should
be called, could the Northern States, or
at least a sufficient nutnbdr 61 them to
make up the necessary two thirds, re
fuse to unite in the tall? 'Vhat epeuse
could they ofi'or to tiu country and to
the world fuf titeir . rglusal/ ihc very
fact that they now feel under constitu
tional obligations to submit constitu
tional amsiKlnients to the excluded
tSlates for their approval is an admission
'that they have the right to participate
in the formation auil atuatlduieiil of the
organic law, and if through their legts,

refuse to! pepepd it,.it would Mao be
manifimt that fairness wad justice were
not pufts of their poltur. and that their
seeming anxiety to restore the Govern
ment to iis original condHioq, provided
constitutional guarantees against future
distqtrlmnces could be obtained, was a
barefaced 'fraud and aa inexcusable
piece or duplicity. .-h

The newspapers an freely discussing
the quesiion of labor in .more senses
Watt on% and jhougk they may differ
on cert ait points, they seem to
generally, that labor .must be mail* ee*
specMhta; that honest industry Bust
be encouraged ; Mud the working’
pla -ok-rated in 4ta/ scale ot society.
This is the purtbf-WiadWn and Mould
be practiced. On this point th* Provi
dence (4* t) Pntfmfrr- x
While We are careful to impress upon
children ! *4 mmi* i»
generally coiisioerea as xm -abstract
idea. The topic has prttfthml Value.
There is a mistaken view prevalent in
this country,-Mat only a professional or
mercan tileTa?eer & honorable of digni
fied. .Hen who by honest industry at
the workbench, or .as.tillers of the soil,,
have acquired a competence, are anx
ious that their sons should avoid, the
dull at|d weary road to affluence which
they have trodden, and henoe place
them in some mercantile establishment,
or direct them toward the rugged trrid
disappointed paths of a professional
career. In cousequence of Mis too
often fatal,mistake, their sons, on whom
thqy had lavished the wealth of their
affection, and whom they had proudly
hcrad would rise to speedy affluence
anu eminence, falter und fail from the
outset, and either leave their business
for some! more congenial occupation or
pass thejr lives in disappointment and
mediocrity. The playt uict is, that' as a
people we despise manual labor. We
glorify it in our leetureal We eulogihe
it iu our colleges, we chant ft* praises
in our social gatherings, but after all
are not earnest and sincere. Society
closes its doors upon the artisan.
There is mqch truth in this; but
much depends, also, upon the working
men themselves. They must improve,
themselves —they must make themselves
worthy of the reipect and fellowship of
the good and th« intelligent. This they,
can do by sobriety, by industry, and by
fostering; among themselves,; educa
tional, literary, and social institutlphs.
I bis is the doty of th,e .mechanic, Me
artisan, and the working man; atfd
performing this duty, sbclsty must
award this respect to which they, are
entitled. | As the Press truthfully con
tinues : ; 1 ’* ■,
>'.Wd rpast honor labor and the laborer/
It is nod degrading to clasp tHa 5 ! hard
and honast hand of th» l workmai)| It
is an honor to have such an one'among
us. Such men are the bo no and sinew
of the 1 country. They Ihcfe»h«_ its
wealth ; they cover the land with thp.
evidence* br prosperity ; lHaj aye the'
best representatives of a true national
character. No man. in this ,qg. in.. apy.;
other eouatry d'an affect to despise she
laborer without proving his owa little
ness and igUoruuca. It is the best evi
dence of l igfaoblc -origin.
1 -'The subject is on* Worthy of cbngid ; ,
; ecatiou, one in which both, sides must
take an active interest. Labor must be
respected and encouraged, and it. must
.make itself respected, A double duty
Is involved, and all, concerned should
perform it eheerfuHy and with alacrity.
This is Weecseary to the Wei-'
sere and preepqrity of the- country, and
