ANTI-RENT oUTRAGEs IN NEW YORK

FOR many years, great repugnance has been
exhibited in this State, towards paying certain
rents, which have been claimed by patent landed
proPrIetoTs, patented by the King of Holland on
the first settlement of New York by the Dutch,
who, by " the divine right gave that he did not
possess and rent for two centuries was paid by
the real and bona fide owners and workers of this
soil. On examination Of the right of the claim to
this rent the real proPTietors found that it was an
unjust eXaction of tribute, to sustain princey
house. at variance with the letter and sprit of orr
institutions and they accordingly refused TO bear

A CONVENTION

We would now proceed to consider another oh
lection to a Convention, which seems to be main
ly depended upon, as forming an unanswerable
reason why should not be called II is said
that ifa Convention be called the present basis of
representation will be disturbed that those por-
tons of the Commonwealth, where there are
comparatively few slaves, will be able to outvote
those where there are more, and that, consequent
ly we are to expect such change in the Con-
stitution, as will result in placing the savehold
ing portion of Virginia under the legislative con-
troll of those sections where slaves are not held -
1t is supposed that the basis of representation will
be so far changed as to destroy all representation
of slave property, and thus to endanger this in
stitution of our State by setting most pernicious
and fatal example for the imitation of the general
government.
Now, we regard this as a waiver of the true
ground for the call of a Convention. Our Con-
slltutlon, we regard as radically defective in re-
cOgnlsiDg as ground of action, and comforting the
privilege of voting qualifications" to which the
genius of our institutions is most diametrcally
opposed. And we utterly deny that the advocates
of Convention are in any respect charpeable
with the poisonous infection of Aboltionism =
We deny that the call for Convention is advo
Gated upon the ground of destroying the present
basis of representation To assert that any act of
injustice must be necessary result of the call
is to deny cardinal principle oG our creed, the
safety OF trusting to free, intelligent and virtu-
Gus people all matters of government To con-
tend that this may not be done is virtually to denv
the ability or integrity of the people, for self pcy
eminent, doctrine that strikes at the very foun
dation of Republican rule We will never sub

Rumor says there is an affair of Honor on
foot and shortly to come off between two vounr
gentlemen, both of highly respectable connex ions

whether gmpo,cder or printers ink; rather in
cllned to think they'll choose the former, although
our neighbour, friend Shields, does not appear to
have settled it as yet, which of tine above named
weapons would be the most effectual in blowing

CONSTITUTION OF TEXAS.

The New Orleans Picayune says that the vari-
Gus committees in the Convention at Austin have
reported the different provisions for Constitution
OF the State OF Texas. and these are published at
length in the Civilian of the 3Oth ult. We Give
some of the more interesting articles and sections
as they appear in that paper, promising that the
editor thinks that various alterations will be made
in many of them before their final passage
The following articles from the ..Bl of
Rights may not be undressing:
3d-No religious test shall ever he required nc
a qualification to any Office of public trust under
this State.
13th--No bill of attainder, er most facto law
or any law imparins the obligation of contracts
shall be made, nor vested rights be Invested. un-
less Tor purposes of public utility, and for ADEQUATE
compensation previously made
l4th.--No person shall ever be imprisoned for
debt.
l9ih.-Perpetuiles or monopolies are contrary
10 the genius ut a free government. and shall new
er he allowed; nor shall the law of progeniture or
entailment ever be in force in this State
In The Executive Department. the LIST section
says that 1.-The supreme executive power of this
State shall be vested in Chief Magistrate who
shall be styled Governor of the State of Texas %
. Sec. a. The Governor shall hold his office for
the term of four years from the time of his install
lailon, until his successor shall he duly qualified
but shall not be eligible for more than four wears
in any term of eight years; he shall be at least
thirty years of age, shall be native of the United
States, or a citizen of the State of Texas at the
time of the adoption of this Constitution.
The 9th section of that part of the Constitution
having reference TO the ''Judiciary'' department
of the State is as follows:
The Governor shall nominate and, by and with
the advice and consent of two thirds of the Sen
ate, shall appoint the Judges of the Supreme and
District Courts.
The editor of the Civilian is of the opinion that
this section will become law, thus taking the
election of the Judges from the hands of the peo-
pie.
The LIST section of the 90 Legislative Depart
ment' provides that " every free white male cit
izen of the United States, who shall have resided
In Texas one year preceding an election, and the
last SIX months in the county or town in which he
offers to vote, shall be qualified elecor. Indians
not taxed, and Africans and descendants of Afr
cans excepted"
No minister of the gospel or priest shall be a
member of the General Assembly.
The first election to be held on the first Monday
and the following day in November 1916, and
the election shall be held on the same DAYS in
November every two thereafter.
The Civilian says that ''it appears to be under
stood that majority of the members of the con-
vention are in favor of inserting clause in the
constitution TO prevent banks
