The States of New York and Michigan have, during the past few weeks, been engaged, through their public men, in revising their ' old Constitu tions, and remodeling the system '"of fundamental laws. The Michigan Convention has finished its labors, and the result of its deliberations are j published. We give an abstract of the new. Constitutionf, in border that - our readers may judjj .whether valua 'it . i.'-. v j. :. ble improvements hav been made in the organic laws.- -.Weare inclined to the opinion : from "k hasty reading, that the' Constituticriai' Cohve'ntron has, in : some pf jts provisions, done part of ! ' the work . which shQuid; have been left to the Legislature, yt w --.'r. The new ConBtitatidn'wiire suhmitted to the people fdr; their ratification or rejection, itthe.Fall.electioii. One of the most impottant changes proposed is in thB artk'le'on the elec tive franchise, which strikes the word " white f.' from the' qualifying clauses. The people of Michigan will thus decide at tbe ballot-box whether universal suffrage shall: oc, shall not be engrafted on the fundamental la'w.of the State. The Senate will be increased to thirty-three, members, and j the, oenatorial term to lour - years. There will be 110'' Representatives elected for1 two years. ' Every.two or more" bounties having 4,000 inhabitants are entitled, to representation. A census will be taken every' ten years, the first onf " in':' 1875. y.The compensation ''f members ofj tlve Legislature ia fixed at jfour dollars, a jflay. rifteen dollars are allowed foir prohibition of money for religious . . irtM-L'?r i i sects is eirenaetr 'to--SCTiirois uuuer and aid townships can be empowered4 to the construction of railroads to the amount of, teftper ;cent. the assessed valuation of the city or town proRerty.

The Auditor General receives $2,500,. and the Judges Qf the Supreme and Circuit Courts $3$00. These salaries may be changed Jby a Jwo-thirds vote F the Legislature. The article on impeachment provides'that no AfEcershall hold hisi-office after impeachment is directed mntil jjie is acquitted, r The Supreme Court is to be 'pmpoed of five Judges (anincrease'-of oee) to serve ter yers insteadiof eight; the Judge having the shortest teTjm tQ h be Chf Justice. fpi "l p x uc uuuucr ui vuvuit vuuiis is l'iniroasi)i frnnT oio-rit tn tfn..hfir " v ' " "o terms to "be for eight years.

" I'ROTECTipN OF FbeEDMEX. On the 13th inst., General Okd, commanding the Fourth Military District (Mississippi and Arkansas), issued an order stating that information (had reached him that in some in stances landholders were, without legal cause, but upon frivolous pretexts, driving off their laborers with a view to' "withholding from them their arrearages of pay ... or., shares in' ;the growing crops.
