It occurs to us they should. If all
should be represented in a mere legis-i
lative'body, then certainly all should
have a voice, one way *r another, in
the framing of a Constitution which is j
the foundation of the government in
which thev live. It, for any cause, one j
half of those who are competent,
as adjudged by our law of .suffrage, j
should be denied the exercise of all j
. power in framing the organic law tin- J
dor whii h they and their children arc j
to live, it would be a great denial of 1
rights, and an outrage upon the spirit j
of republican government. Tho-thco-.
ry, tho great underlying principal of
our government is, that all, who arc de
clared competent so to do, and who by |
their surroundings, their place ot rcsi
-1,1 dencc arc considered to have sufficient I
knowledge and interest therein to so (
entitle them,, are- to take part in enact-J
iug the laws under which they are to ,
live, and which they are to observe. I
Suppose-by force, or ojLher cause, only |
half ot the people, by their
or one of the counties of-ahe State
by their delegates, should assemble in
convention, and frame a constitution, j
which should be ratified by those on-1
Jy whssc delegates framed il; and j
suppose said constitution should be in)
tho estimation of the majority of all free j
lVom objection, and suppose that most |
of those who had no part or prrcel in
making or adopting it, should demand
a reconsideration, another convention
to consider ot alterations and amend
ments to it, would it be in keeping
with the spirit of a representative gov
ernment, would it be in keeping with
common fairness to deny them their
request? It occurs to us that it would
not. For the sake of satisfact'on and
harmony if for nothing else their right
to',bc heard ixi making their constitution
should be recognized.
But if that constitution should be a
stranger to them, unsuitcd to their
wants and condition, unjust and expen
sive in many of its provisions; and
adopted in a manner, foreign to any
thing known in a free government, as
a mode for ascertaining the wishes of
the people, then would it not be down
right injustice ami tyranny for their
*• request to be denied. Our present
constitution meets the latter supposi.
tion. It is true that there wero not
half flte citizens, who were then quali
fied voters bj all tho te-;ts and require
ments of law theretofore known, denied
the right to vote tor delegates to> frame
it, or tor its ratification or rejection; but
then a great number were. There were
at least ton thousand of our citizens,
comprising more worth and ability than
could perhaps have been found in other
ten thousand in the State* forcibly de
nied tho light and privilege of partici
pation m the making or adopting our
prison? constitution. These, with a
majority of our whole people, think the
instrument in many particulars is not
suited to their wants as the fundamental
law of tbeir State. That it was not has
been acceded, and some amendments
thereto have been made. And, as an
evidence that ihc demand for constitu
tional reform was not without founda
tion, those amendments, everyone of'
theui, which the people were permitted !
to pass upon, wero overwhelmingly
adopted, ratified with a greediness that
seemed to ask for more. Now, it the
republican party means what it says
when avowing its advocacy of govern
ment by the people, why does it oppose
it convention, wherein nil the people
can bo represented? 'ghose who were
disfranchised in 1868 can now exercise
the right of citizenship. They, in com
mon with a majority of their fellow
citizens ask a convention in which they
can be represented and heard; not as a
matter ot courtesey, but for real cause.
Tho constitution is uot such as our peo
ple want, and its ameiidedmeut is es
sentia) thei«* prosperity. It is not
tho constitution of our people at least
our whole people; and without dis
franchisement, the only cause tor which
was that thoso to be effected had there
tofore enjoyed in, a pre-eminent degree
the confidence of their fc.low-citizens,
as men of w r.li, probity and ability, it
is doubtful if the present constitution
Would over have been trained, and if
framed ever rititled. There will bo
diflerenco of opinion as to just what a
constitution should contain to be sure;
l>ut that there should be a convention
tho republican* could hot deny, if their
deeming advocacy of the right of the
people to govern were not a liol ow pre
tense.— A convention will assemble.
The constant demand, in the face of
republican opposition, aided by every
artifice, has at last been heeded, and
uuw the effort is made to reader the call
li -.-Au .
nugatory by electing delegates who will
not consider the subject matter of
amending tlie constitution at all. Is
tlie instrument as near perfection a3 it
; cm be brought do they suppose?
Charles Nqrdhofl, a correspondent of
i (he New York Herald , writes for bis
I paper from New Orleans, of t!ie sitiia
j (Ton in Louisiana. Sir.-Nordhoff-is a
' steadiest republican, and Inte earned for
| himself iu newspaper circles, and among (
i the leading newspaper men, a veputa
j tioii for accuracy and truthfulness. He
I was lately connected with the New York |
I Evening J'out. lli.s communication is ,
; (oo long to be inserted entire,.. but -we j
i giv6 below, in his own words, an ex- j
tract which conveys a correct idea of
his conclusions from immediate obscr- |
ration. Thougti in republican estima
tion. one crv >f white lcauger, ku-klux J
pr rebel is sufficient to dissipate truth I
and justice, anil to cover up and make
harmless and entiiely proper fraud, dc-1
ception and oppression on the the part j
of those who raise the loyal cry* Here '
i what he says:
"This situation was one not different |
in kind from that in New York city in
1871. The rank and file of the-party
which calls itself Conservative consists
in part of Democrats, who avc naturally
opposed to Republican rule* but in part,
also, of old Whigs, Know Nothings and i
the mass of citizens not interested in
politics. These entered the Conserva
tive party onh to save the State , from
further mi-government anil spoliation.'
It was and is/ therefore, an 'honest
men's party, and was called 'Conserva
tive' and the name Democrat dropped,-
because there are in Louisiana a large
number of good citizens who are so
strongly opposed to tho Democratic
party that they will not actively, if at
all, work with men bearing that name."
"Whatever we in the North may
think of the white people of the South
we cannot forget the fact that Louisi
ana has a long established and wealtv
community,' with large and complicated
business and social interests, and a
great accumulated capital, invested not
merely in iands but also in Machinery
and important public works. New
Orleans is one of the largest commercial
ports in the United States; it Im3 a
numerous body of intelligent and
wealthy meichauts, the equal of any
of their class in New York, Philadel
phia or Boston. The sugar planters of
Louisiana arc manufacturers: they have
large sums invested in machinery and
their business requires much techauical
skill, and they are, as a cla s, the equals
in intelligence and character of North
ern manufacturers. Now, then, all
these men, the ereamof the population,
with scarcely an exception, are united
in opposition to the present rulers of
Louisiana, whom theynot only detest,
but dread. It is not only the cotton
planter of tho remote districts, there
fore, but the country traders, lawyers
and politicians who oppose the Repub
lican rule. How, in.spite of so united
a.i opposition, a handful of politicians,
most of them strangers in the Slate, have
maintained themselves in power I will
try to explain in another letter."

ITS.
Young men doff your broad-cloth,
kid gloves and finger-rings, put on, a
neat, homespun suit, go to Major Craw- I
ford's and see a cosey farm house, with J ;
good barns, and neat surroundings,
fences trim, and crops well ahead and .
growing evpu. Uillike the former laud
lord of the premises, who worked the
land iu corn and made whiskey tor half
a century or more, at the expense of
once the best soil in Alamance. The
Major will tell and show you how lie
is rapidly reclaiming his laud by grow
ing clover or grass, how well he is
able to furnish clover seed of a superior
quality, and unadulterated with wild :
carrot, and sand at a cost less than you j
pay for them in northern markets.
While he is dilating to you on tip-toe
on this subject, a good dinner will be
prepared and no excuse taken for a re
fusal to enjoy his hospitalities.
Now that you aro ready to take
leave of the Major, don't be unmindful j
of the fact, that he like most meu, is i
fond of a little flattering, in order to
make a good impression be sure lo kiss
the babies before saying good-bye.^
Ride over to Daniel Anthony's, a
man who has a place for everything, j
and everything in its place, look at his ;
wheat, put in with a Bickford & Huff
man gndn drill, and if you don't find !
(iim in a good humor and enjoy a call j
here, I'l forfeit my judgment, and say j
it is because the fruit has been blasted, j
and the old man is to be deprived of i
snitipies until another season.
Pass on to David W. Kerr's, th 6
model farmer in Alamance, again enjoy ;
a good diuncr and drink buttermilk
to your hearts content, learn from him ,
a life time experience in tarming and
the difference in running it on the old j
modo of negro labor, and by the im
proved implements of husbandry, man
aged and controlled almost entirely by
himself aud sons, then look at his vast
olovcr fields dotted 6ver with herds of
1 Devon cattle, Berkshire swine, and
• South Down sheep, all of pure stock,
' and say if you think there is no pleasure
i in farming, to say nothing of the profits
• derived from selling forty-five dollars
I worth of butter a week, three year old
r steers at one "huhdved dollars a pair,
eight hundred or a thousand bushels of
t; wheat annually at one dollar aud fifty
» cents a bushel.
8 Pursue your course in the direction
of Mebansville. Ou your way call on
e the Wilsons, and again kiss the little
r- little ones , then stop at the Whites
Thompsons, aud Binghams, where yon
will meet no disappointment of any
kind whatever, receive from tliein the
very •, important lesson, how to raise
wheat and turnips.
Go over among the Hurdles, Roneys,
Hazels, a net "Grahams, and learn from
them the fabulous prices they are get.
ting for tobacco, and ask if tinning,
won't pay better than lounging on the
corners, gossipping about Kings, liard
times, and things in general.
Trust everything under God to habit.
Make sobriety a habit, and intemper
ance will be hateful.
Make prudence a habit, and reckless
profligacy will he contrary to the nature
of a child grown or adult.
Have a plan laid beforehand forcvery
day.
Acquire the habit of untiring indus
try.
Cultivate perseverance.
Cultivate the habit of punctuality.
Be an early riser.
Learn something from every one you
meet.
Form fixed principles on which to
think and act. - '
- " * • ■•---*■ . J
Be simple ami neat in your personal
habits.
Acquire the habit of doing everything
well.
Master your temper.
Cultivate soundness of judgment;
Observe proper treatment of parents,
friends, and companions.
After you have firmly decided to act
upon fins principle, buy a farm and go
to work. .
If any be curious enough to ask the
question, why you are a farmer, answer
by saying, it is getting to be a notori
ous tact, that the professional market is
overstocked with lawyers, physicians,
and merchants, and that the supply of
clerks greatly exceeds the demand, and
this while the reverse is true, with re
garjLt# farmers and farming.
There is"about three times as many
lawyers and doctors in this country,
as are needed, and uot halt enough
farmers.
Now why is this? It appears to me
tliat,ambition and laziness are two of
the whys and wherefores.
A large portion of our young men
possessing lofty asp'rations for fame
and glory, regard tilling the soil as the
last road to that desirable object, as. it
would be no place for the display df
their fancied talents which might per
haps, be very true, some from a pure
love of indolence, and others because
they consider & degrading, ungenteel,
&c.
A young man should be happier and
more cohtcntented, in the possession
of an establishment like Crawford's,
Anthony's, or Kerr's than with all the
wealth, social and other pleasures per
taining to a city. I could give other
reasons, for beins a farmer, but brevity
being a virtue I forbear.
Never fear then but what you will bp
ablejto subscribe and pay for the GLEAN
ER,pay your taxes, as well as the minister
and doctor, and have" a surplus for lux
uries or safe investment.

SHARP!—SHE WAS.—The Daily
News says:—There was a sharp young
lady in Raleigh who had forty or more
admirers. For each of these she
bought the canvass for si ippers, all of
the same pattern, the making of which
she leased'out to an aged colored seam
stress, while she kept the forty-first pair
herself in the parlor, where she could
have them on hand whenever one of
her lovers called. Of course, the young
man asked for whom she was working
those pretty slippers, and she replied,
willi bewitching drooping oft he eyelids
which is one part modesty and two
parts winks:
"Oh, they're for a present for a gen
tleman friend of mine." Then the in
fatuated youth went off and bought
her a sealskin jacket, or a pair of ear
rings, or easy chair for her gift. She
bestowed upon each ot her admirers a
pair of sltpcrs wosked by the colored
seamstress and footed by a Dutch shoe
maker with one eye, v each -costing her
on an average $2.65, while she esti
'matcs that her presents will average
$45 froui each adoreV. The paiv she j
i worked herself vis presented to a
, yonng dry goods clerk in Cluirlotte to j
whom she was married last September. !
