We re We use them in their established no other. As to Women's veling, our judgment dogs not favor it, because it would double the cost and tronble of holding elections, and (as we thiuk) to uo purpose. There would be twice as many voles as now 1o re- ceive and to canvass, with no material difference i the result. But we hold firmly to the principie that ments Jorive their just powers from the consent of governed; ion of Wou L5 rs only on the assy that it is their choice to huveit so. Whe appear that 8 majerity 01 tue wouwen in tl { wish to Ue enfisuchised, we shall support their claim, though we advise them not to make it. For we think it will be difficult, if not impossible, to place their names on the registrics and receive their voics, and here stop. It seems to us that 4 reasonable de- mand will instantly arise that they accept all the responsibilities of citizenship, and not pick out one and rejest every other, If they insist on thelr right to holp make the lawg, they must not shrink if re- quired to aid also in their execution and enforeeiment; if they participate in voting the conntry iuto a war, they may be yfinuibly required to help fight her out of it. Such is the aspect which the question uow . wears to us; we may be led, on fuller consideration, to different conclusiong. As to the age at which the Right of S8affrage may be exercised, we see no reason for making a special rule on the subject. The law long since fixed the age of maturity and full responsibility, and we deem the point well and wisely settled. Itis quite true that some persons are fitter to vote at 16 than others are at 40 years old; just s some who migrated to this country last week are fitter to vote than some who were born bere and have lived among us to a good old age. Yet to allow any board or arbiter to deter- mine arbitrarily that A., barely 16 years old, may | vote, while B., who is past 40, shall not, would lead to | the grossest abuses and create general discontent. ‘We see no other way to secure Impartial Suffrage than that which bas stood the test of experience snd given very general satisfaotion. To provide that every male citizen shall vote wbo is over 21 years of age, and who has lived one year in the Btate and four months in the County, and bas an actual fixed residence therein, is Impartial Sufirage. 1t you choose to add that be must have paid a tas, or | bave learned to read, or to read and write, v do not | r's and we presumse in r our correspondent to them. wd in enificat n thy . is finished, and men who have long been f ulse to the l‘_fl&vn party are now openly true to its enemies, o Gen. .

In a word, they glory in all wrongs, and demand all rights, The Richmond Enquirer is astonished to hear the de claration of Mr. Cowan that the resolves were passed by a unanimous vote. **We protest in the name of our people that they be considered mo unanimous rote.” Add nothing to the *‘situation” as already | described, and The Enquirer is willing to cobperate in the restoration and vindication of the Constitution— against the ** Radicals,” of course.

You kiow you don’t accept it.” We suppose they do know that they never did, and jiever could accept it in hearty good faith. The Cou- vention resolyes were the mildest version of the “ situation” that any body of Nortuern men could offer, aud that corresponding body of Southern wen conld receive. If those resolves, based on the part of their makers to the very knee-pinch of genu- flexion, are not satisfactory, what is to be accepted t There is no doetrine of the Constitution ovee which the still Rebel South is not ready to quar- rel and litigate; no law of Congress which it does not contemn and evade; not ove of the Presi- dent’s high exceutive measures which it does not practically go back upon, Ouve thing alone the South is willing to acknowledge, namely, that it is beaten, aud that by consequence its prime institation is de- stroyed, Oue other thing it reasserts in all its new- found zeal for the Constitution—the resurrected, re- vivitied doctrine of State Rights. One thing more ia heartily accepted, as & prerequisite to the mon-ac- ceptanes of anything else. We mean the policy of | Andrew Johnson. The Wilmington (N.C.)
