O. A reference 10 the Journal Of the
Legislature will shew that an amendment
to the Constitution has passed that body by
strong vote, providing for the mongrel
system Of representation by which the small
towns are to be districted, or DISTINGUISHED
every other year, and the large towns still
continue to elect in their corporate capaci-
ty, but with such an increase of the ratio.
that, after the first representative, two men
residing therein shall have no more weight
politically than one residing in small town.
This is done for the purpose of reducing the
representation and diminishing the expens-
es OF Legislation, and, still, the number of
which the House is to consist, is fixed high
er than it has averaged for the last ten
years. Such system must have been
adopted, merely for the purpose ofmaking
a change, and we do not believe it ever will
be accepted by the people. 1t is better to
let things remain as they are, than to make
any change, till such an one can be effected
as viii be decided improvement. ...
u The Court Of Common Pleas is now
IN session in this town. The present Term
IS held by Judge Strong. !
