Amendment of the Constitution. A test vote to the Honso yesterday, indicated a determination to essentially change or modify the present organic law of the State. It Is generally conceded that the present Constitution is impracticable in many respects, and that the public welfare would be promoted if in those particulars it could bo changed, to overcome its evident deficiencies. How these modifications can be made most economically and conservatiyly is the issue. By sonic a small convention is proposed, to be composed of fifty members, to draft a new Constitution to be submitted to popular ratification. If the conservative sentiment ; was represented in this body, so that the danger of an extreme change could, be avoided, there - would.'not'be much objection to this. mode. Others propose to adopt the old Constitution, engrafting in It some of the best features of the new. It the best features of both could thus he incorporated by the action of the present Legislature, * it would perhaps be thc iiiost satisfactory and the cheapest way of presenting the - question to the people. There is.but little difference of. sentiment

As to The; finish which you had-best put on your house,.Mrs. [fob had better come and lake a look through some of the buildings in this [itace.and select the style herself. . { am confident 'the Zinc finish will take her eye.. The beautiful gloss which .Ibis, finish beats, the.easiness with which it is cleaned, {nothing but a basin of water and a rag or sponge' being.requited to free it from flw'pecksand dirt,] together with its durability, renders it the cheapest and most desirable paint a man can put on; his house.
