There are, before The Convention, two re-
ports from this Committee one from tho
majority. and one from the minority Of the
committee. The majority report, as you
are aware, permits the establishnent q
Banks under certain rsstrioGions, and upon
certain conditions. while the minority rec
ommend the absolute prohibition Of al such
institutions. Upon ! motion to'suhstitute
the prohibitory clause recommended BY the
latter for the majority report, IN able and
exciting discussion took place, which con-
'tinued till late in the evening. Messrs.
Hampstead, Hail. Gehon, Quinton. Ripley,
and others, supported the minority report,
and Messrs. Lowe, Of Muscatine, Cook,
Lucas, Peck, Hawkins, Sc. opposed it,
The motion was negatived, by most de-
cided vote, only 10 voting in its favor. The
question will again come up on Monday,
but ! am not able to say with certainty

probabilities are, however, / think in favor
Of the adoption Of the main features Of the
majority report, with some notifications.

Before any returns Of the late elections
had been received at this place, the prom
inent wings here IS well as elsewhere
were Dragging that Ohio would go for
BARLEY by from 10 to $1,000, and some Of
the more inexperienced and brazen faced
among them, said that the wing majority
''oos'ld not Be less than t.caty or twenty-five

Pennsylvania they claimed as certain for
Markle, but more cytaia for Clay. What
is the result? H
In Ohio, by the combination Of the
Wing and Abolitionists, there is only 900
whig majority.
In Pennsylvania, notwithstanding the
combination Of the Wings, Natives,
and Abolitionists there is over FIVE

far from publishing, as does that editor,
election returns that sCe knoU to Be false.
The Hawkepe says: sII .o l

dered to be engrossed. The most impor.

elected the most discussion, was that which
gives to the Executive Of the State the ysto
