TuEspAY, November a


The Convention met at II O'Clock, and
was opened with prayer by the Rev. Mr.
Douglas, of the Presbyterian Church.
The House then resolved itself into
Committee OF the Whole, Mr. Powell in
the Chair; and the question being on the
( Sd resolution reported TO the Convention
by the Legislative Committee, VIZ;
"Res0ICed, That the Right of Suffrage
shall continue to be exercised by all who
now enjoy it under the existing Constitu-
ton: g. shall be extended, LIST, to every free
white male citizen of the Commonwealth
resident therein, above the age of2l years,
who owns, and has possessed for six
months, or who has acquired by marriage,
descent, or devise, freehold estate, as
sessed to the value of not less than
dollars for the payment Of taxes, If such
assessment shall be required by law; I'd,
or who shall own a vested estate in fee,
Iu remainder, or reversion, in land, the
assessed value of which shall be
collars; 30, or who for twelve months next
preceding, has been a house-keeper and
mead ola family within the county, city,
borough or election district, where he may
offer to vote, and who shall have been as
sessed with a part of the revenue Of the
Commonwealth within the preceding year,
aad actually paid the same: Provided,
nevertheless, that the right OF suffrage shall
Got be exercised by any person Of uns0und
mind or who shall be a pauner or non
commissioned officer, soldier, sailor, or
marine, in the service of the United States
ior by any person convicted Of any infa
nous offence; nor by citizens born with
out the Commonwealth. unless they shall

ijately preceding tho election at which
they shall offer to vote, and two years pre-.
ceding the said election, in the county,
city, borough or election district, where
they shall offer to vote, (the mode OF PROV
ing this previous residence, when dispu-
ted, 10 be prescribed b. law aad shall
possess, moreover, some one or moreof the
qualifications above enumerated
Mr.. Summers of Kenewha, offered the
following amendment, (applying to the 81
class Of voters added beng the same he
had offered in the Legislative Committee,
with a slight modification, substituting oc-
cupancy for possession:
''Or who shall own or be himself in &C
tual occupation of a lease-hold estate, with
the evidence of the title recorded, of a
term originally not less than FIVE years,
and one Of lcficd shall be mezpired. Of the

The amendment was very briefly ex

IS different from what they have demanded,
which does not 90 to greater extent in
granting the right of suffrage, than that
which is provided by the proposition of the
gentleman from Chesterfield. it gil disap-
point every hope, and our hopes if this be
all that is to appease their anxiety, will be
blasted. We cannot make the government
10 suit those who have required 1t; and not
come TO the conclusion, that so arge a num-
Der of people as arc Justly entitled to suf
Gaqe. should be excluded from voting.
The gentleman from Chesterfield, seem

been stated by some of his colleagues, as
from their own knowledge, anC particular
" those of the gentleman from Monon

more extended suffrage given 10 Pennsyl-
yania aud Ohio, upon those citizens of

was correct: nor had he any doubt that CIV

gentleman be willing to trust any man TO
