THE CONSTITUTIONA L AMENDMENTS. The siibjiiaed are all the proposed Amend ments that could be got through the Legisla ture by the requisite two-thirds vote. We have no objection to any of these, except the last, though waVdid not approve this method of changing the Constitution, thinking it would be better to bear the inconveniences the people suffer under it, jwbile we continued to struggle for a Convention. These once adopted, there will not be the same necessity for a State Convention as before, ytill it will be pressing; and yet it will be far moire difficult to secure. In these unset tled times, we think there should be frequent sessions of the Legislature, at least annual ses sions ot that body. We believe in annual ses sions at all times, and especially until things settle down. We also think Legislators should be paid' jby the yea say $250 or $300. This would give us short, decisive, active annual ses sions, jusi, the thing we most need; and save the State thousands of dollars each vear. The way the matter now stands, members go to Ral eigh, vote themselves five dollars per diem, and remain there as long as a cent is to be had from the Treasury, without doing much that is of value to (he public.

PRESS UOttJlEtfT. THE PRESIDEHT'S INAUGURAL ADDREV S. I r ; I ' j Yicie $ of seme of the Heading Papers. j J New York Tribune. Even in his second inaugural, although it is perhaps the least successful even of hirippeeches, there is something" almost pathetic about the sincere and narrow manner in which he protests hid concern for the public welfare and his unrposu to execute the dutiea of his office wiui strict regard to law and the popular will. He ua no regret tor any failures ot the past, no distrust or any want ot success in the uture.i lie reviews with deep satisfaction thej administration just closed, in which little that is substantial ; has been accom plished, and he promises for the term which is beginning very nearly the same reforms which he promised four years ago nn ictt unachieved. He assails the knfiltiest problems of political administra tion and economy with apparently no con ception of their difficulty. He lays before hs iis a mere matter of course a programme which (might well discourage the ablest of 8tatesmn. and ensMjres to carrv it out with a frank confidence which shows how ittle it is based upon knowledge. Even n regard to his own sentiments the Pre sident; is deceived. He thinks that he is destitute of personal susceptibility and re sentment, even while he is violating the great unwritten law of ceremonial address es hy nnery leferenccs to the criticisms of iia opponents in the late campaign. Tlie reformation of the civil service, the restoration of friendly feeling between the difjfrreiit sections of the country, the revi val nt trade and commerce, the cultivation of amicable relations with foreign powers, tne removal of evcythmg which trammels lh fullest development of American in dustrial interests, the pacification of the Indians, and the settlement of th nation al fiiiaitces on a sound and permanent basis these are all objects which com mand themselves at once to the approval of jail men of our ay of thinking. But what warrant uave we that the President can or will do anything more for the ac complishment of those beneficent ends dujru'g the coming term than during the last ? New York Times. fThe address, as a whole, bears the on mistakable stamp of the Fresident s in dividuality. It ia a blunt, straight-for- ward, and practical document, with no pretension to literary grace, and wih plenty of those minor faults on which the uteiary amateurs and the dictionarysmen car find a good deal of exercise for their small wits. It reflects not a few of the ner8dnsl feelinffs of the President in favor ot certain developments of national activi ty, which, perhaps, are lacking in a sound economical basts. In a man of lees perfect 8(jlfre8traint, and less complete subordi nation to what he clearly discerns to be the common sense of the people, such opinions might be fdangerou. As it is, the Presideat is too outspoken to conceal his belief that the National Government on?lit to do sundrv things nnallv com , o - j o J milted to individual enterorise. while it ia perfectly certain that he has too keen a sense of the responsibilities of his position to urge such details ot policy beyond the limit which both the people and their rep resentatives would approve. Philadelphia Pre! President Gcant'ij inaugural address is precisely the documcrit we expected. If he had jriothingjiew to say we doubt if he wonld not haveJ ; Violated precedent and gone Into his Tiigh o$ce withont the ut terance bf a single word. As ft was, lie bad something to say that was worthy the consideration of the coantry-the an nouncement of a distinct programme for his second term a clear, consistent, prac tical course, which, if it le followed with the moderation, sagncity, and firmness that characterized the four "ypars that yesterday closed, will fill the measure of As usual, he does not propound any. new j in laum auu in me untiuu a ciaiuuui;.- or startling theories in political philosophy, nor clothe his views in elegatit rhetoric There is not the least trace of partisan or sectional bitterness in the address, and he declares himself ready to worH with men of all parties for the return of entire peace and general prosperity to the Republic New York Sun. Gen. Grant's second inaugnral address has the merit of brevity, and considering its quality, would have been more credi table to hi in had it been still more brief. It consists of disjoined sentences and confused paragraphs, thrown together heterogpneonsly, like a pudding stone. The President not only enforces the importance of education by precept, but illustrates it by Lis own example. Ills style of composition ' is not worthy of an intelligent school boy ten years old. Rut while the -address is stupid it is patriotic II is opposition to a large stand iug force, naval oi military suggested repeatedly rather than clearly expressed smacks more of statesmanship than any thing else that he says. The address reads a good deal like the speech of a sovereign, who considers him self the father of the nation, and imagines that the people derive their happiuess and prosperity from him, or like that of a tig Indian chief to his tribe. i Baltimore Gazette, In one matter, however, Genpral Grant has our earnest sympathy. When he complains of his arduous duties and we remember the lalKriotis days and nights he has passed at Long Branch ; his soh-mn Steamboat exertions with Jim Fisk ; his painful daily drives with brother-in-law Coibiu and others ; his grave intellectual disputations with brother-in-law Casey, and his sad symposiums with Tin Mur phywe do indeed pity him, and we can readily conceive the great anxiety with which he looks forward to the day when he will be released from what he sorrow fully styles "responsibilities that are at limes overwhelming." THE DEAD CONGRESS THE 42nu OF iNFAMOUS MEMORY. New York Sun. The entire terra of this Congress has been characterized by a series of disrepu table transactions which have no parallel in our history. We went through all the temptations of the war without eeeing anything so outrageous as the doings of the two Houses over which Schuyler Col- fax and James G. Blaine presided. Amid the seething mass of these transactions: perhaps the two which will hereafter loom up the most cquspicuously and bo the longest remembered are, first and chiefly, that though some members of the two Houses were proven before lenient com mittees of the one House or the other to !iave been gnilty of fraud, bribrey. and corruption, and of double dealing and rank penury in vain endeavors to explain their; offences, not one of them was expelled, otily two, and they on false pretences, were mildly rebuked, while the rest were whitened orer till their reputations shone again; and secondly, that after this scandal- ous betrayal of their trusts, the two Houses filled up the measure of their iniquity by voting themselves a large increase of their salaries, not execntine the disgraced nimJ o o - j bers whom even Ben Butler' thought so nfamous that they ought to be indicted by the Grand Jury and sent by the petit ury to tne penitentiary. lhe J?oity-becond Congress! As its members sneak home with the money of the people huing their pockets, even boy at their marbles in the streets will point to them, one saying to his comrade, "There goca a member of the Forty-Second Con gress ! and the comrade, not deigning to raise. Ins eyes from his play, will respoud Ana oi course, a tniei v j Philadelphia Press. The body which expires at noon to-dav. although it has not produced any ledala tion that will long be remembered for the blessings that will accure therefrom to posterity certainly has a marked historyl It began in a time when corruption had reached a climax, when the sordid element in politics had attained its Greatest power. and when good old fashioned statesman ship and rules of public service had fallen into be 'deepest neglect, nrd h is itself accelerated a reaction For, however some of us may be. grieved at the slowness with which the new - or rather the old- order of tilings is netting in, nobody wil deny tht there is an improvement, very gradual, it is true, but still an improve meat. I Philadelphia Ledger, Rep. The Fo:-t' second Congress came to its end jesterday, in almost universal discred it. During the last session it came out that a numbvr of it members in both Houses had been engaged iu corrupt trans actions, and that at least three Senators were impncatt d in Dunerv in procuring . . . . r tlieir elections. It was due to the Ameri can people that their Congress should fiee itself from all complicity with bucIi men. But, itstead of punishing them to the nt most of its power, it scandalously put it self forward as their apologist and protes tor. 1 lie House pasted weak and inopera tive resolutions of censure upon twn of its ten culprits, and let the others go unre- buked.

' " r Resolutions censoring Hooper, Dawes. Bingham, Kclley, Garfield and Scofield were rejected, and even a resolution con tinuing the investigation of the conduct of those members was promptly defeated. And so the only persons punished are MessrB. Brooks and Ames, and the onlv punishment inflicted is a resolution that the "Honse absolntty condemns their con duct.'? The guiltiest of the gang have escaped scot free, and two whose connec tion with the swindle has been censured have been punihed-f-if those resolutions be punhment without any authority whatever, according to the rule establish ed by Congress. If the House had i.o au thority to cxp-l members whose aceen- unice: oi unues aiue tiatea the commence mcntjof the present Congress, it did not have authoiity to "absolutely condemn" the acts of Brooks and Ames committed "prior! to the fourth of March, 1871. What ever he views and the action of Congress, the guilty parties will find that their coat of white-wash will avail them nothing out side of the Onpitol. Kxpulsiou could not have! added to their, disgrace, nor will a whitc-wa-hing brand of infamy. TiTE case of the car-hook murd Foster, of New J'ork. has attracted eon. erer. eiderable attention.. Mrn. Putnam, the wife of the murderer's rictim, a few days agoJ wrote a sentimental letter to (li.v Dir, urging executive clemency, on the gronnd that the murderer t would aild to the number of disgraced widows and orphans and open afresh her (Mrs. Putnam'?) wound. Governor Dix had positively refused to interfere in this case ; but this letter caused him to respite the culprit, and it was thought, would lead to a commutation of his sentence. It now turns out, as will be seen from yes terday's telegraphic dispatches, that this wretched woman received from a rich rela tive of the murderer 6fteen thousand dollars for writing that letter, and she pocketed the blood money and babies sentiment ! This ;womin is little better than the murderer Of her husband. ! Raleigh bentincl.
