I^imSeitamany admirable provisions, attention te
IJSflUf called to tba following cLanges In, and
l^trftoent of, the old Constitution, some of wbicti
■MCn eirif legislation at your hands.
■ DECL ,EiTI0N or FUNDAMENTAL PKINCIFLES.
I Article Coe is the declarition of fundamental prin-
teb two of that article recites that -All persons
iJrcornaturalized in the United States, and rest-
K“ t this State, are hereby declared citizens of,
If,,, Slate aedno laws shall be made or enforced
Iwhich ihsll abridge the privileges or immunities of
Iota Of the United States, or of this State, or deny
lomrcereoe within its jurisdiction the equal pio-
I" .«laws. And It shall, be the duty of the/
Id-neral Assembly, by appropriate legislation, to
Itroied every person in the due enjoyment of tne
Hrighte, privileges and immunities guaranteed in this
yjlf provision is iu consonance with the law of
Jfijflrreaa, which, fortunately for our domestic tran-
■ni.it?, Hetties a question wnlch might have b«en a
of serious trouble for us and our clilldrep;
■and shows, conclusively, that there was no prosenp-
Itiveapirit on the part of the framers of the new Lfott”
luitation, for, by its provisions, every citizen is dully
|)erasitied to participate with us in the governnasal ot
* riuter-Stale affairs.
IMPRISONMENT FOB DEBT PROHIBITED. * *
J Their wisdom is further shown in the adoption of
■he eighteenth section of article one, prohibiting im-
|;ri5omnent for debt, and obliterating from our code
lit iiws that relic of the usurer’s power which con-
lined the uufortuuate debtor »n a felon’s cell.
I Still further, as an evidence if our enlightenment
lint) advancement in the scide ol humanity and moral
■progress, by the twenty-second section of the name
liriide, “Whipping,” as a punishment for crime, is
■abolished. The whipping post will no longer shock
lae sensibilities of our citizens.
LOTTERIES PROHIBITED.
Another most salutary provision is found in sec-
tventj-three of tb-same article, which enact*
it‘*No lottery shall be authorized, or sale of iotte-
. tickets allowed la this State, a ad adequate penal
ly hi such 8je shall be provided by law.” This
ecticn. in my judgment, will be found to be a great
onjervatorof public morals, arid it becomes your
Intyto provide, by appropriate ’.egislation, adequate
■Laities to prevent the continuance of this de- a
i.-ilizing traffic.
POLL Tax.
Section twenty-nine of the same article prescribes
Tint no poll tax shall be levifid except for educa-
ional purposes, and such tax shall not exceed one
lollar annually on eaca poll.” The free 10m of the
•allot box is in a measure insa red by this provision,
fhich prevents an excessive ta.x upon each poll, arid
it the same time permits the voter to aid in promo-
mg the free school system by contributions to that
fund.
SATIOSXh UNITY.
Action thirty-third provides that “The State of
iwrgti shall eFt?r remain a member of tue American
Inion; the people thereof are a part of the American
wtija, every citizen thereof owes paramount allegi-
/iivwUie Cohsrjtution and Government of the
uiwd States, Md no law or ordinance or this State,
ncoatraveatiop. or subversion thereor, shall ever
liTtany bhditjg force." This settles substantially
nJlefioirely, a subject-matter which has been the
(roiiul warca i of oar mo3t serious difficulties in
pet# and id war.
FRANCHISES AND ELECTIONS.
Tur attention is particularly directed to that por
ted ifade two—franchises and elections—which
ncribea qualification for electors, and recites that
b elector “Shall have paid all legal taxes
may have been required of him, and which
way have had an opportunity of paying, agreea-
«o law.’*
Jiia requirement has been a part of our status for
ay years, but of late has grown into disuse. It
iJld be enforced, particularly sir.ee the poll tax
4been m»da almost nominal, aud within the atoil-,
pi all wao esteem the franchise as the especial
pcnlege of a freeman.

RESTORATION OF FEDERAL RELATIONS.
The amendment to the Constitution of the United
8tates, known as the “Kourteeiita Article,” is an
amendment applicable to all the States; therefore,
no one State can reasonably object to it on the ground
of inequality, as citizenship is conferred by Con
gress, and conditions have been heretofore prescrib
ed. whati'easooable ground is there to object to the
General Government prescribing conditions in tbp
future orthe present t We are a nation and not* a
confederation of independent sovereignties, ana it
is sertainiy right and proper that^ the power of de
claring who shall be citizens, shonld belong to the
National Legislature, and as the Constitution pre
scribes that the citizen of one.-State shall be a citi
zen of every other, there is a power more than im-
-plied, that the National Legislature may make citi-
zenship uniroim.
But the chief objection urged to tho amendment is,
that it makes citizens of ail persons of color born in
the Uniied States. It is hardly necessary to argue
this objection. * ' * * - - * —- - ---
It has been practically ignored from the com
mencement of the Government, apa il it had not
been, it is too late how to argued that a native Amer
ican lias no rights because i his complexion Is not
thatoi the majority.
Will those who contend that -the men of African
descent cannot rightfully be made citizens pretend to
cay that a iree colored man, bora in the United
States, traveling in foreign countries, could not
always lmvu rightfully claimed tbe protection of tbe
flag, and if injured iu his person or property, would
uoc have been eutiiiad -to redress and have obtained
lit xt tlw uUJcOIOto that
wjs not the OuetrinB ot preetice ot the lathers of the
Republic. All civilized men are citizens of some
country; shall It be said chat-the civilized men of
dark' complexion alone are citizens of no cannery ?
Another objection urged to the amendment te that
it changer the bases of representation in the popular
brunt 11 of Congress, and in the Presidential electoral
college. The justice of thisr'change is self-evident.
Suppose a case : A State prescribes that none bat
men worth ten thonsaud dollars shall vote or be
elected (ind we hare had similar proscriptions in al
most every State.) Can that be called a Republican
government which says that none, other than men
so qualified, shall be represented or represent the
great inaes.of their 'fellow-citizeus in the-National
Legislature ? Is that a Republic where ten or a
thou land men are allowed to tepresent not only
tnemselves, bat, it nmy be, the miluons of those who
hare and had no voice in the election, and whose
opinions and interests may be diametrically op
posed to the rnling minority? The constitntiaiml
amendment merely says if ttiesa men cannot rote
they should not be counted in tbe bases of represen-
Lon. U is for the good of the nation that all men, all
classes, all interests, shall be represented, but if yon
yield to States Bight doctrine and confine the right to
vote to a particular close, tben Uongress claims the
right to say that that class shall only be entitled to
representation in proportion to their numbers.
In tbe National Legislature it would be preposter
ous to maintain ihatStates equal in total population
were equally represented, wnen in one only one-halt
the people were o a titled to vote and choose represen
tation; and, in another the whole participated in the
choice. If the States are to bs eqaally represented in
Congress, the basis of representation must be equal
and uniform, and the measure which makes it so, or
attempts to make] it so, as does this amendment,
commends itself to all trae Republicans, all tree
Democrats—indeed to all who are willing to concede
to others the equal and just right they themselvei
claim.
In oar 8tate many persons who have heretofore
been honored and Lasted by their fellow citizens in
official positions,' ah# who afterwards engaged in cr
gave aid and comfort to the enemies tf their state
and the Union, are, by toe conditions of the amend
ment, and by the law under which we are permitted
to re-nnite with the General Government, deprived
of tbe privilege of again holding office until relieved
of that disabillty.by Congress, aitbongb they still
participate ln the Selection ot officials at the biRot-
0Ort. ‘ -, r- 1 1 , ;' - - t :
While this prohibition may be considered harsh,
the propriety cannot be doubted of placing tbe re
constructed government in the hands of persons who
have not misapprehended nor willully violated their
official duty and allegiance; or who, having tans for
feited confidence, now eyVnce'by their words end
deeds e spirit of tabmission to the laws of toe land.
It is confidently believed that even this restriction
will be removed as rapidiy^aa our relations with toe
General Government will justify.' t..

J Tho foundation of all prosperity Is in the ;8ncces8-
fnl development of our internal resources. Let ns
sell more than we boy, produce more than we con
sume, 1 and the balance will be wi th and among our
selves, for improvement and re4nement aa a people.
With natural advantages unsurpassed,we have bnt
to practice the economy, the energy and the arts of
our neighbors in other estates lees favored by nature,
to insure tor ourselves ease, contentment and mate
rial advancement.
Relieved from the old system, of labor, which was
a continual oppression, to the owcer as woll as the
iwned, we now have at command the most efficient
reliable class of; agricultural laborers to be found:
my country, and with, the introduction of adpli-:
es so aptly fitted to imri wanta in reducing,hand'
dfk, our crops will-bo made-more valuable to the
. Juder. i'q r.- i.j L-. 3 orfoi
. wise use of the State credit, under careful re
lictions, to open avenues through that section ol
our State, so rich in the precious metals, will draw to
us Increased population; and with-it a ready demand
for our lands and onr products.
Tben, indeed, if we follow; the suggestions of the
distinguished citizen wfio last addressed the Gene
ral Assembly from the. Gubernatorial chair, and
“cultivate among ourselves unity of feeling or opto-
and of action ; unity among the people, unity
g the Departments of Government—eschewing
_pal excitement, <* * and employing
active energies ip re-building onr waste places,
and developing orirpeglected resources; whilst others
rage and wrangle over ephemeral issues, let us be
busy with the real, abiding concerns of life, * »
shall we emerge Irom this period' of ostracism, wiser,
more thriving, and more respected than ever.’*

“NICK OF THE WOODS”!
Is the moat remarkable and exciting story of tbe kind
that ever appeared, and is toe Fountain-head from
which myriads of Indian Tales have been derived.
Some ot the characters are unequalled in the whole
" ‘ ' certain kind of weird; myste-
ga around them* For instance.
tha terrible Jlbbenainosay, toe “Spirit that walks,’
Bloody; Nathan, the “Man of Peace,” and Boarint
Ralph Staetcpole, toe “Rampine Tiger of the Rolling
Fork,” who was equally st home whether stealing
Bed men’s scalps or a pale face’s horse. The destr<
to read a story of such intense interest, of course
will be universal, and we_truatthat onr-friends wil
order the paper of their newsdealers in season, v
prevent disappointment. ■
