VERMONT CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION

VERMONT CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION.
This Convention adjourned on the 18th instant
after session of thirteen days. 1t is stated that
none of the more important amendments submitted
to the Convention were adopted. These amend
ments having been proposed by the Wings, it will
be recolected that by negecting to vote, they per-
mitted their political opponents to obtain majority
Of the Convention, in order that they might share
the responsibility of adopting or rejecting them.
One of the most important amendments which
was submitted proposed to change the present un-
equal system of representation in the Legislature Of
that State, by which every town, no matter what its
population, has an equal representation. This
amendment is amongst the number rejected, SO
that the towns containing few hundred nhabi-
tants will continue to have as full representation
as those which contain as many thousands.
BY the way, while speaking Of this Convention,
we are reminded of the glorifcation of the Demo
cratic press at the result of the elections which
placed the Wings in minority of the body. We
were unable, then, to convince our Democratic
friends that they had not really achieved most
brilliant victory. Now, however, having before us
the test vote for President of the Convention,
we record it for the benefit of all persons who may
yet entertain any doubt upon the subject 1t is as
follows
The first ballot for President stood For CARLOS CooLIDeE,
Wing, 81 LEVI B. Villas, FreeSoiler, lOl LUTHER b..
HUNT Democrat, as Scattering, H. -Four more balotings
had without any material change, except slight de-
cline the Mr. Villas when that gentleman withdrew,
and nominated THOMAS BARTLETT, another who
elected the second day, at the eleventh ballot
This vote discoses the political complexion of
the members whose election was heralded in the
!" Union of the 18th ultimo as ;. Great Demo-
cratic triumph in Vermont" which had "resulted
in the choice of large majority of Democrats"
and portended downfall of Taylor Federalism even

NAUvOO SOCIALISM.

We see it stated in the newspapers that about
forty Socialists are expected to arrive soon from

MISSISSIPPI.

The Legislature of MISSISSIPPI convened at Jack.
son on the 7th instant. DABNEY LIPscoMB was
chosen President of the Senate, and JOHN ]. Nc.
RAE was reelected Speaker of the House Of Re-
representatives..
Governor QUITMAN, in his message, states the re-
cepts of the past year to have been $437,0l8; the
expenditures, 1917 ,42s. The amount Of sinking
fund received is $l47,9l5, OF which 72,S93 has
been applied to the payment of the non-repudiated
portion of the State debt, Interest included.)
On the subject Of Reputation, the Governor pre-
serves silence that is any thing but commendabe
in one who has been in past times its avowed adj
yersary.
He denounces the National Government for its
interference with the threatened foray on Cuba |;
and speaking in defence of the "peculiar nstitu-
ton of the South, says:
elm the event of the adoption of the Wilmot povo by
Congress- the admission of California into the Union by
virtue Of her late pretended Constitution, the abolition Of
slavery the District of Columbia the prohibition Of the
in slaves between the States recommend that the
Governor be authorized order election of delegates from
all the counties in the State Convention, to take into
sdeation the mode and Of redress and to adopt
such for future security the crisis may de-
mand."
Gov. QUITMAN urges the abolition of all Common
Law forms of Legal Procedure SO that " thereafter
all suits shall be instituted by petition, and pleaded
to by an answer, after the manner of pleading now
in use in the Chancery Court

THE STATE OF OHIO.

The Senate of Ohio was finally organized for
business on Friday last. On assembling in the
morning of that day, after conversation among
Senator'S Mr. BLAKE resigned the station of Speaker,
and the Senate elected CHARLES G. CoNvERs to
that post. Mr.. BLAKE said he took this step for
the purpose Of enabling the Senate to proceed with
its business. He did not resign till Mr.. SWIFT, in
open Senate, pledged himself to vote for Mr..
CoNvERs for Speaker, thus placing matters polit-
caly as they were before.
On the same day Governor Ford delivered his
Annual Message to the Legislature. This docu-
ment shows that the total amount of payments into
the State treasury during the year ls49 was
the amount of expenditures 90, LIE, $751;
The total amount of domestic bonds redeemed and
cancelled during the year ls49 was $l99,3s6,
leaving balance applicable to the payment of the
State.debt of $433,365.
The receipts from the Canals and Public Works
during the year ending November is, ls46, were
$773,554. The receipts from the same source dur
ing the year ending Nov l5 ls49, are S73l,l73.
Making difference of S42 $3.50, which is attributed
to the depression of business caused by the preva-
lence of the cholera.

Turning from the Halls of Congress and the
State Legislatures of the South says the Gin.
cinnati Gazette to the People and the Press,
we find frequent expressions of attachment to the
Union. The last Southwestern mail, for example,
brought us articles in the editorial columns of the
New Orleans Bulletin and Nashville Banner which
indicate any thing but popular sympathy in
Louisiana and Tennessee with the speeches and
movements that have been made in Washington
during the past four or FIVE weeks by Southern
members of Congress.
The editor of the Banner, in publishing SO much
Of the recent admirable message of Governor Crit
enden, of Kentucky, as relates to the excitement
which Mr.. Calhoun and other Southern politicians
have raised about the " Wlmot Proviso" and the
new Territories, accompanies it with the strongest
possible expressions of commendation and says, in
conclusion: :" We do not speak Uithom our hos,
when we say, should that time ever come (may
Heaven avert the direful, awful hour y when this
Union shall be placed in jeopardy, Tennessee, too
side by side with Kentucky, will stand by and
abide with the Union to the last
/ And (says the editor of the Bulletin in refer
ence to the movements in Washington In al
the calculations and estimates of the dsunion
lists, we pleased 10 note that they never pre-
tend TO include the State OF Louisiana. On this
! point, atleast they exhibit soundness ofjudgmen
and foresight which does not distinguish the res
: oil their views or proceedings"
