be well. If those who believe in the ca

Judge Bliss Speech.

Judge Bliss delivered most powerful
speech>in favor Of the adoption of the new
Constitution, at the Court House on Tues.
doy evening last. 1t was the first and on
ly speech we have heard on the subject,
and it was one rep'ete with sound and con-
vincing argument. Although the evening
was too short for full discussion of all the
reforms proposed in the new constitution,
yet he took up some Of the more important
of its provisions, and contrasted them with
the old, and showed most clearly that the
people would be greatly the gamers by the
adoption Of the new instrument. Upon the
subject of the Judiciary he was very clear,
and we do not believe that any one who
objects to its adoption on that ground, had
he heard him, would have ventured the OBJ
lection afterward. But we cannot do justice
the speech, and therefore drop the SUBJECT.
Portage sentinel. [volume] (Ravenna, Ohio) 1845-1854, 1851-06-16

IFThe Whig labors to provo that the
representation under the New Constitu.
ton is not equal, because, forsooth, Hamil-
ton county7 has eight Representatives,
while Portage has but one. But he does
not notice another fact in connection with
the same subject-that to have that repre>
sentation Hamilton County must have
eight times ths popolatiom Of Portage
But the 5Vhig is in favor of the single
district system, by which the power to ap>
portion the State for representation will be
continued in the hands of party politicians
to be used in gerrymandering it every four
years TO suit the ends of political dema-
gogues. That paper charges that the up-
portionment Of the new Constitution is a
gerrymander, Iand is unfair. We have
shown, by publishing the figures, that the
charge is utterly false. Besides, the fact
that all but Ia of the members Of the Con.
vention Of all parties voted for it upon its
final adoption in that body, and that some
of the most talented and Influential mem
bers of that party support it, stamps the
charge as q base lie.

% The whig papers opposed 10 the
New Constitution, quote section 3 of article
10, to prove that that instrument imposes
@treb!e tax" upon the banking institutions
Of the State. The most casual perusal of that
section will show that it provides that "aH
property employed in banking shall al
avays bear a burden Of taxation, EQUAL
to that imposed on the property Of indi-
riduals.". That is the real ground of OBJ
lection to the adoption of the New Consti-
tution-because it establishes the principles
of EQUALITY and places corporations on a
level with the people. Bear that iu mind.
