ANTiqUE GoLD MAsK,-At late mee-
ting of tho Asialic Society, London the
Director exhibited golden mask which
has been entrusted to him by the Court Of
Directors Of the East India Company
The mask was found in AN ancient coffin
on the banks Of the Euphrates. 10y Cap.
tain Lynch, ono Of tho officers engaged in
the Expedition which surveyed that river
some years ago 1t is formed Of thin
sheet Of pure gold, it is Of little size, and
was apparently moulded from tho face o
the deceased occupant of the coffin il
which it was found. The grave appeaIe Q,
to have been ,iled at some former period
but the fear Of pollution. aud perhaps 1
superslitious respect for tho dead body
had prevented tho discovery Of this curl
Gus relic. which was ia close contact
with il. The character of tho face bear:
considerable resemblance To that of the
Assyran portraits which arc sculptured
on the Ninevile monument recently dis.
covered; aud tho very iew details we
could gather respecting tho uccompani-
ments OF the coffin, would seem to favor
the belief that the mask is really the por.
trait Of the illustrious Assyrian, buried d
m)re than twenty six centuries ago.

TgR CoNVENTIoN..- Y Yesterday's sess'
ion was exclusively occupied in debating
the question of annual or biennial sess-
ions. From The number of debaters on
either side, We should judge that the
members are nearly divided upon this
question. We are confident, however,
that if annual sessions are abolished and
biennial adopted in ,hei+ stsad. it will
prove featute in the Constitution which
will cause great deal of future trouble
Our State is too large, our interests
too varied aud ou, population too rapid
ly increasing to give us any hupe that
we can dispense with annual sessions Of
the Legislature. The objections to them
are founded upon considerations personal
to the body aud not very complimentary
to the people who select its members
objections which eau be urged with egua'
force against any aud all Legislative
bodies.
The debate upon the Legislative De
partment of the Constitution, now be
fore the Convention, bids fair to extend
some weeks longer. unless some limited
time is given for discussion. There viii
be other articles equally complex. anl
upon which members are ready to array
themselves, that will probably cause the
same lengthy discussions. The Conven
ton will most likely continue in session
few days longer.
