"Postmasters are notified that under the new postal law it is not lawful to deposit in a postoffice to be sent by mail any letter or circular concerning to called gift concerts or oUier similar enterprises offering prizes of any kind-eu-any pretext. ,- Such matter should be immediately, forwarded to the dead-letter office and at the same thne; but separate from the package, a letter sbould be sent to the Third Assistant Postmaster General advising him of the transmission."

However able i our -Legislature may -be, it is powerless for 'good as long as it remains ' hampered by the. present Constitution of the State. We do not advocate just now rad ical alterations in , the Constitution, except the expunging of a large mass oi matter wnicn propeny Deiongs to the Legislature and in wo part of the organic law. The Constitution should contain nothing but a few fundament al laws in regard to the preservation of life, liberty and property, the de tail being left to the Legislature. We only now mention two : suggestions affecting the question or suffrage: id mau should be allowed to vote who does not show his tax receipt, if demanded by any; elector so to do, nor should any person be . entitled to vote who has been convicted of an in famous crime. These laws would not only be right in themselves, but would do much towards collecting the pub lic' dues and for the prevention of crime. ' . .'' . . LHUlsboro Recorder.! "Thg "vo"6TrrsTa" Convention in 1871f9its bot'a fair Hest of popular wish or feeling. It was wanted, and the Constitution of 1868 did call for sweeping reform, even from the Re- publicans. If , the. popular voice had been free to express itself, if it had not been suppressed by the fears of being Drought in collision with the general government, if threats to sup press; the Convention had not jbeen made, and if promises of aid from the government had not been believed in, tbe publio sentiment would have been expressed unmistakeably. v The; time has past for those bug bears to operate. The government has become wiser, it has better learned to trust the people. It has learned more to distrust its own partizans. It recognizes now, what it should have done then, the right of the people-to rectify their own internal grievance.
