Memorial of the Maimed Soldiers.

The soldiers who lost legs In the warare circulating a petition to Congress toprovide for keeping them snppled withartificial legs. They say that no artifi-cial leg will bear usage more than oneyoar without repairs ; that many areunserviceable after six months; thatwith few exceptions, thev are whollyworn out after five years' use; that asa class they are in moderate circumstances, and tbat the expense of repair-ing and purchasing artificial limbsseriously lessens their ability to sup-port themselves, and their families.Therefore, they ask that an act bepassed authorizing tbe proper authori-ties to furnish all thus disabled withn order for sn artificial leg once every

five years, and tbat in order tbat competition be left open to all manufactur-ers, the soldier may procure upon suchan order tbe kind of leg that he mayprefer. .

The petition wbich comes Ions esti-mates the number of soldiers tbnsmaimed at five thousand. It seems tous that itlS only, necessary to state tberequest, in order to have it respondedto. Let It not be said tbat we exhaustour gratitude or our generosity on theofficers of high rank, while we-le- t themaimed, common soldiers ask in vainfor tbe poor substitute for the limb theylost in our service. We seem to be insisting on keeping up the grades ofGeneral and Lieutenant-Genera- l, afterthe present incumbents vacate them, inorder to heap our gratitude on otherofficers ; let ns not at the same time re-fuse an act of justice to the commonsoldiers which will not cost the coun-try muoh more than one of these highgrades of rank.

Tie Amendment.

The Fifteenth Article of Amendmentto tbe Constitution now submitted tothe Legislatures of the States for ratifi-cation,h- as

the recommendation of beingconcise and comprehensive. Here it is,and all there is of it:

"The tieht of tbe oitisens of the" United States to vote shall not be denied orabridged by the United States, or byany Stale, on account of race, color,' orprevious servitude. .... :

"Congress shall ha v power toenforcethis article by appropriate legislation."

The right is still left to the State toprotect the ballot by snch safeguards asthe people thereof may think expedient.The amendment simply . forbids dis-criminations on account of "race, color,or previous condition of seryitodei"That is to say, conditions wbich no mancan remedy, do what he will. It is ab-surd, it is disgraceful, for any politicalcommunity to punish by disqualifica-tion in matters entirely beyond thecontrol of the individual, and for Whichhe is in no wise responsible. The prin-ciple embodied In the artiole is' a justone, and leaves no eround of defensefor those who onoose its ratification. If.'.. . .. . .

Senator $tewart' Visit to General. Grant.

The Kew York Herald gives the fol-lowing account of a visit of SenatorStewart to Gen.

Grant repliedthat he understood the amendment andhoped the States would ratify it. . Hebelieved that the Republican partywere bound to see this conclusion real-ized. This statement he desired allthe gentlemen present to understandthat this was not for their private information alone, but for the wholecountry to hear.

The Chinese question need give noparticular embarrassment.. All weneed do to disfranchise the celestialsis to pass a law that no person shall benaturalized who wears a cue. No Chinaman will cut off his occipital orna-ment for the sake of citizenship. Johnwould scorn such humiliation. Andthen the law wonld be quite as reasonable as that wbich disfranchises ournative born because of of the color oftheir skins.

A proposi-tion to divide the State into two States,to be known as Texas and "West Texas,will be submitted, together with a constitution for each proposed State, forthe ratification of the people at anelection to be held on the first Mondayof July. State and county officers andmembers of Congress will be chosen atthe same time, not to serve, of courseshould the constitution be rejected.

" Educational Test.' Last week we expressed our demurnr to a suffrage amendment whichshould prohibit an educational quallflcation for voting or holding office. Thereasons for our faith will so readily oc-

cur to every one that we presume theyneed scarcely be given in detail.

In the first place, such prohibition isunnecessary. Should an educationalrestriction to voting be imposed in anyOf the Southern States it would disfranchise more white re'bels than black loy- -

1 into T-ti- tinanv. hshVA tKna f fshown a greater thirst for education,ana apuiuas ior acquiring 11. iuad hkybwhat are known as the "mean whites"of the South. No educational testcould therefore be established in aSouthern Stale which would not operate more disastrously upon the Democratic party than upon the blacks.

Again, the more suffrage is extended,the more need there is of stimulatingknowledge. It is true that educationdoes not necessarily make a patriot,and that some of the most consummatevillains are men of fine educational accomplishments. Yet it is equally trnethat the ignorant are more easily madethe dupes ot the designing class, thanthe well-inform- "The ignorance ofthe Southern laboring class," says Mr,Curtis, "was the capital ot the SlaveryLords and the strength of the RebellionThe ignorance of New York keepa thatelty flexible in the hands of Tammany."So it has ever been in all parts of theworld.. Some of the mest vicious des-potisms the sun ever shone upon weresustained by an ignorant, howling rab-ble against the intelligence and pro-gress of the age.

What we want is not that the organ-ic law of the land shall disparage edu-cation, but guarantee its blessed privileges to the humblest and poorest. Wewant laws and an administration suchthat no infamous "Ku Klux," whetherin Tennessee or New York City, shalldare to place incendiary hands upon aschool-hous- e for freed men or an asv- -lnm for orphans.

These are a few, hut not by anymeans all, or the strongest, reasons forthe of educationalqualifications.

We rejoice that the form of amend-ment finallv agreed unon baa lu..made in conformity with onr viewsupon this subject, Its chances of too-ces-s

are two-fol- d what they wouldhave been had the word "education"been retained. - -

On the firstday of the present year, three harddrinkers met in the grocery where theythev had lone obtained tbeir grog andof their own motion swore off all further tinnlino. and then and there organized a Reform Club which in six weekshas grown to a membership of fivt hun-dred, nearlv all of whom Were hithertoeltner drunaaras or u Tinners. " Tbe movement, nwiiiDeoDserveonrifflnt terl with intemperate men. andis carried onbytneni entirely outside ofall existing temperance societies, anahence il is all tbe more significant.Larcre public meetintrs have been held.at which hundreds of well-know- n rum-drinke- rs

have come forward and signedthe pledge of abstinence ; wives, weeplna- - for eladness. have witnessed the reformation of husband's who hid almostreached the. horHbld brink of a drunkard's doom. Drinking habits had be-come so universal in Covington, amongvonnor and old. and drunkenness hadconsequently become so prevalent, thateven tbe drunkards and whiskysellersthemselves were appalled at tne spec-talc- e

From the Cincinnati Commercial Feb. loth.The Value of Advertising in Cincin

nati. ,

The Cincinnati newspapers havenational reputation, and circulate large-ly over half a dozen States. We desireit understood that we do not attemptto appropriate for the Commercial ex-clusively this extended and excellentreputation. A share of it belongs tous, and we are not anxious as to thepublic appreciation of the portion thatis ours. But we may speak more particularly of the Commercial because weknow whereof we speak in that con-nection. The ' Commercial circulateslargely in Western Pennsylvania, WestVirginia, Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, In-diana, Southern Illinois, and til all imrportant points on the Mississippi River.and considerably in SbMhern Michiganand Missouri. Other Cincinnati papersare also circulated throughout this vastregion. The territory of the Cincinnatipapers extenas a aav s railroad ride xnevery direction from the city. The tradeof the city can be restored throughoutthis territory by the aid of the press.Too many of our manufacturers havea feeling that advertising in the newspapers is not exactly the thing. Theywould be willing to pay for "readingmatter," but do not like to be palpableadvertisers. When they educate them-selves out of these . delusions they willsee their advantage in the knowledge thata business man's advertisement, for whichhe is plainly responsible, is of the natureof an official document, and receives moreconsiderate attention than a puff in thereading matter, and, is ootn more valuaOleana respectable.

' Chaplains of Congress.Donn Piatt thns dlscourseth in one of

his letters from Washington :I am a firm believer in political ser

mons. Our morals have so much tt dowith our politics, and our politics withour morals, that I can not see how aminister can do his duty and not mixthe two. Christ and bis Apostles weretne most enective aaa persistent politi-cal preachers tbe world ever saw.have no doubt but that the aristocraticcircles of Jerusalem were terribly shocked at the impertinent interference ofmen thev considered very low fellows.

The artistoracy of to-d- ay is about thesame as was that of Jerusalem, and itwants the minister to be. a sort of aRev. Mr. Japonica Cheesewax, and de-vote bimselr to the holiness of the holyand the sinfulness of sin, and leave thecongregation alone to its money gettingmeanness, its worldliness, and. aboveall, its politics, bo they good, bad orindltterent. This sort of thing I do notcountenance, ana our bretberen of theMethodist Church have made it a liveinstitution by ignoring such precepts.

But I do most earnestly protestagainst the practice of injecting politicsinto our prayers in other words, to address the prayer to the audience instead of the Lord. On this account ourchaplains to legislative assemblies andat public meetings have come to becalled, lrrevently, "the Lord's stumporators," and a gentleman once remark-ed, as he walked out of church, that"tbe prayer. just given was the mosteloquent effort he had ever heard be-fore a Boston audience." During thelate war an enthusiastic ohanlain to theSenate one morning prayed the Lordto give the Senate brain. "Give themDrain, o Lord, give them brain 1 ' Cer-tainly a sensible proposition, but ratherhard for the brainless Senators to bear.

lbe better way for the chaplain is tosuppose that the Lord has some sense.and not crowd in too much advice. Ihave heard more blasphemy poured outin prayer than I ever heard in cursesand all instructions and. advice to theLord, and all hits at the congregation,come Under that head.

the truth, O Lord,'--h- hollowed, 'andmake her quit sraddin about and a lyin'to the neighbors," and I couldn't standit, and jist took him a swipe with thefiat of the shovel, and I'll do it again."

A friend of mine tells me a eood st orvof a worthy divine of the Democraticfaith, who, during the Mexican war,held forth in a prayer, one night, be-fore his little congregation, somewhatin this wise: "Thou knowest,. O Lord,that our rights were invaded bv thoseMexicans that thev crossed the RioGrande into our territory, and so de-clared war on us ; all of which, O Lord,Thou wilt find set forth clearly andconclusively in the message of our ex-cellent President."

Each ant in an- - ant-hi- ll knows hiscompanions. Mr. Darwin several timescarried ants from one hill to another,inhabited apparently by tens of thous-ands of ants ; but the strangers wereinvariably detected and killed. Think-ing that there might be a family odorby which they were recognized he putsome ants from a very large nest intoa bottle strongly perfumed with assa-foetid- a,

and restored them after 24hours. At first they were threatenedby their companions, but soon recog-nized and allowed to jiass.
