House bill to amend the constitution of the State in reference to the institu tion for the deaf and dumb and the blind, and for the insane, was taken up. Mr. Leach was opposed to the bill as it proposed to leave Wt,,Wuu with the Legislature wpme ror tne afflicted. Mr. Mebane had no fear of the repre sentatives of the people ; to (distrust thei-vrtts-ati-IeiMoeTa w$?$ifei fifc&tft gflfafW viding for the indigejiji oiily. He,mjv ed to word the bill so ' as to strikevdut the word " may " and make it read that the Legislature " shall" provide for the indigent, and leave the rest to take care of themselves. Mr. Alexander thought the effect of this amendment would be to exclude pay patients from our own institutions and drive them to other States. Mr. Dancey was satisfied with things as they were. Mr. Caldwell said the insane asylum was originally called and Viras intended to be an insane asylum, designed for the curable only. The Legislature, how ever, never closed the door upon the un fortunate indigent applicant where ad mission was possible; now it had been made compulsory on the Legislature to provide for all, and the rich and in fluential had possession of the asylum, whilst the indigent were cast adrift. If the intention of the law were carried out, the incurable would be sent home to make room for the curable. Mr. Rylium withdrew his amendment and provided as a. substitute that the insane shall be provided for in such manner as the Legislature may pre scribe. ' The substitute was rejected and the bill then passed its several readings by the constitutional three-fifths majority. CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT. The bill introduced this morning by Mr. Henderson to amend the constitu tion in regard to the State debt con tracted by the constitutional conven tion of 1868, and succeeding Legisla tures, was called up. The bill passed its second and third readings by the constitutional majority of three-fifths. IIOI SE OF KKPHESEXTATIVEs. March 11. . ALLOWANCE FOR COSVICT LABOR.

Then, too, the stream of convicts pours constantly into the penitentiary, and it will not do to so cut down the appropriation. . . Mr. Coffield's amendment wiasiifuttb a vote and lost.

Mr. Powers opposed this amendment, saying that the only sewing machine factory in the South" was in Gleaveland coirntv,fid this would crush it. Mr. Blocker hoped tliat all these amendments would be voted down, and earnestly" desired entire concur- ence with the Senate, holding that body responsible. Mr. Ardrey said the Senate "amend ments struck him as proper, as raising revenue from men who are able to pay the taxes. Besides, it would make pre paration for the sxvvhjerit of the debt so lately adjusted.' -1 1 Mr. jJrown s amendment was lost. Mr. Colwell offered an amendment making the taxes upon grist and saw mills and cotton gins proportionate.
