DIVISION OF THE CoUNTr-An effort, or rather
two efforts, are being made to procure division OF
this county; one has reference to detaching the
west part of Racine and the east part of Walworth
and uniting them together in new county !; ano-
Their to divide Racine by an east and west line
through the centre 1t does not strike us that the
great body of the people interested are likely TO be
faroraby disposed towards either of these PROPOSE
tons. County governments are now sufficiently
expensive, and any division must increase this ex-
pense, for although the county may be haIved, the
machinery requisite for the government OF TIT
smaller territory but slightly reduced in extent
or expense, and the same people have the expense
of two governments instead of one If the terrific.
ry be SO large as TO make division matter OF
economy, through increased convenience that al
tiers the case. We think these counties are very
well constituted now but of this fact the tax payers
interested must themselves Judge

Tue VETO PowER.-Efforts, we perceive are
being made in Convention to deprive the Governor
OF the veto power. We are at first glance favora-
bly, impressed with this idea and wish to see sue
coed. 1t appears 10 us that this veto or one man
power, is not one which naturally belongs to or
grows out OF, republican institutions The legisla-
tor is more nearly connected with the people, and
is presumed 10 be better acquainted with their
wants and wishes than the executive wherefore
then, the executive should arrest the legislator or
rather the people themselves by their expressed
majority is not clear to US 1t is to some extent.
acknowledging that the people are not the best de-
poSltorles of power, and that they need higher
power to correct and check them which idea
we think is hardly compatible with that on which
our institutions are based. The two-third privilege
or rather restriction, does not help the matter for
this is as much, if not more incompatible with our
institutions, than the veto. 1t is giving the power
INTO the hands of the minority to control and defeat
the majority, principle, the ultimate of which is
absolute dictatorship. Upon hasty thought OF
the subject, we are disposed to claim for the legis
lature supremacy as the law-making power

FRIEND SHCLES:-
( You would be Il little amused to step into
! the Convention, some of these days, and
/ see how they vote and talk on the subject
/ of Printing. You will rccocct in the
! first part of tho session, the democrats were
/ divided between the two papers here, the
/ Argus and Democrat. The wings, after
making show for w. W. Wyman, all at
once become very economical, and together
with a minority of the democrats, concluded
to let out the incidental printing to the low
est bidder, which was done, and the Argus
took it at one cent Yesterday the question
of printing the Journals came up. After
much talk, and a good deal Of excitement,
it was finally ordered 10 be printed at the
Argus office. A reconsideration was
moved this morning which was defeated by
a tie vote.
The Article on Suffrage came up ycster-
day in the Convention. The first sec
ton provides that all white male persons
of the age of 81 years, and who shall have
resided within the State for six months,
shall have the right to vote. Mr.. Jackson,
of your county, made a motion to strike out
six months " and insert zone year," which
did not prevail. Mr.. Dunn then moved to
strike out the first section and insert the
following:
In all elections every white male ci
zen above tie age Of 81 years, having resi-
dcd IN the state one year next preceding any
election, shall be entitled to vote at any such
election; and every white male inhabitans
of the age aforesaid, who may be n resident
of the state, al the time Of the adoption OF
this constitution, shall have the right OF vo-
ting as aforesaid.
TWAS understood that Judge DOnn was
to make speech this morning in favor of
his proposition. The lobby was well filled
with spectators. After the usual morning
business was through with, Judge Dunn
took the floor, and made plain, but forcl-
BILE speech in support of his substitute and
against the section as il now stands. | WI
not attempt recapilulation Of his remarks
as YOU will probably get them through the
press.
Mr.. Rountrec made very sensible speech
in support of thes uhsttute. and was follow
ell by Mr. Cole, of Grant Co., on the same
side 1t must be admitted that t.12 srgu.

AFFAIRS IN CANADA-Wc learn from all
intelligent gentleman just returned from
Canada, that the greatest eXcitementprcvaiIs
in regard to the elections abou,to take place
Free Trade and the Church question, are
the most exciting topics in the canvass, and
such is the wrmth Of feeling, that business
men leave their daily avocations for the
purpose of engaging in the contest for one
or the other of the candidates.
We are also informed that for number
of wears, merchants and dealers have not
experienced so much of a pressure in the
money market as at present. Drafts upon
New York are selling at percent month.
The banks are doing nothing in the way of
discouts. refusing even the best papers off
cred at their counters. The pressure in the
money market, and the excitement of the
election, absorbs all other subjects. and com
pletely derranges the business of the PrOvin-

We have seen a petition in circulation, praying
the Convention 10 make definite exemption of
land and personal property in the constitution.
This we think the conN eH;on will not do, nor will
it be generally deemed advisable it should. This
is new principle which has recently grown into
and upon the popular attention and favor. 1t has

now and con6ne tim the constitutonwll be no less
hurtiul to the principle than Objectionable in other
points of view. As friend ofthe measure. we
opposed to tying it down in the constitution, be-
cause it is advisable to have it more readily under
the popular control that it may he readily modified

DEAR SIR:-
The Convention met this morning and
soon adjourned. a member of the Con-
ycnlion, Mr. Fcalherslonhaugh, lost a child.
which was buried to-day. The commit
tees will nearly all make their reports this
week, am told and should Judge that
the Convention would get through with
Their labors in three weeks, though some
think it will be five.
The article on the executive was finally
passed, yesterday. 1t provides for Lieu
tenant Governor, and fixes the salary of the
Governor at 81 $50, and retains the veto
power. Mr.. Martin offered an amendment
to the bill of rights. Yesterday, to the effect
that a liberal exemption shall berecogniZed
by law, leaving the amount and kind of
property to be nXed by legislation 1t was
adopted. Tie article has not had its final
passage, however.
Some Of the members Will make a strong
effort to incorporate a specific exemption
i'll the constitution, but | am inclined to
think it viii not carry.
Mr.. CasiIeman made a minority report
on Banks and Banking, This morning. He
recommends General Banking Law
There will be much difficulty in settling
the Bank question. Some are in favor Of
the general Banking system, some for
Special Charters, and some for none at all
and sir, arn not Yankee enough to guess
what the result will be OF this question.
Every thing moves on very quietly as
yet. but before the subjects of Judiciary,
Banks and Exemption are disposed of, YOU
may look for good deal of tain, and per-
haps some storm. Yours, u,
