interrupted by the gas lights going out 0hough
it was not yet dark Mr.. Bolts produced
stampede by informing the body that there
would certainly be an explosion when the lights
were brought in. A motion for recess till 8
was peremptorily carried, and the members scam
pered promiscuously. There was really not the
slightest danger of the apprehended catastrophe,
but the bad smell of the gas made the recess very
proper What the cause of the burners going out
was, we have not learned. When the body dis
persed, motion o: MIR. Wise's was pending to
restrict the old constitution Legislature to the
transaction of the necessary business alone.
We hope to be able to lay the new constitution
before our readers in the Times of tomorrow.
