) :: The Southern Igl9lature.: '
Excepting the unahjmons- refusal of the South
ern I Legislatures ; to ratify the - Cb&stitutiohai
Amendment, it must be confessed' that the gen
eral legislation Of these bodies of late has been
such as1 to fconitnahd the approval of the freedom
loving people of the North." With regard es
pecially to' the question of tbe blacks, which', "in
terest, very;, deeply a great number of people in
this' section, the action of the Southern Legisla
tures has beenV in! almost every instance, humane
and liberal; to a very high degree. Not only have
thed laws affecting them adversely, one way
or another, been repealed, but the guaranties of
their personal, civil,, social and, property rights
in the new; legislation have been stringent and
unexceptionable.- We think it must astonish
every man to see hpw old prejudices have gone
down with old institutions, and how the innume
rable restrictions connected with Slavery have
given place to the large liberties of the new ordir
of (things, t Independently of such matters as
affect the lately enslaved race, we think that
everyone who has taken the trouble to look
over" the-proceedings of the Southern Legisla
tures, must have been struck with the extent; to
which a liberalizing spirit pervades their action.;
If appears in a thousand minor things, - which,
to be appreciated, must be compared with things
as they existed in the past . Such progres . ot
ideas, suchv ready recognition of changed cir
cumfctanceay Ought at least to modify the fexo-'
cious language which violent extremists . use in
speaking of the action bf the Southern . Legisla
tures. iv Y.-Ttmes. 1 1 .'..'.). t
