Informal UNDERSTANDINGS.

Nothing is more inconvenient in parliamentary
proceedings of any kind, than those informal un-
derstandings, which few gentlemen undertake
to adopt as the general sense, and which constran
the whole body to govern its action accordingly.
This was strongly exempliied in the Convention
on Friday, when it was undoubtedly the expecta-
ton of large majority that the vote the basis
question would be taken. We trust the lesson
will be profitable one, and that if another day is
fixed for terminating the discussion, there will be
no understanding of any sort, except that express
sed upon the record No man can question that
the country is utterly weary of this useless debate
The speeches, it is perfectly notorious, are ad-
dressed, in reality, to members constituents, and
are not expected to influence single vote. There
is another mode, however, in which the proraction
of the debate works to the advantage of the mi
nority. If the force Of the majority is to be de.
stroyed at all, it must be by decoying individual
members from its ranks, and this is not to be eff
tected by public speeches. One thing is self-evi-
dent; the minority is not defeated as long as it
defer the issue, and hence delay is its obvious
policy. But we ask, is this the sort of delibera-
ton which the delegat; to the Convention were
chosen to prosecute Do the people of the West
themselves wish to prevail by mere dnt of 'phy-
steal endurance ?" If so, why do the most violent
ofthem send up the instruction 10 their presenta-
tives to withdraw from the body ifthe majority carry
through the mixed basis? This very mandate proves
that they expect the Convention to come to de-
cision. Why then postpone it, when all are await
ing its announcement AS to the suggestion that
Eastern gentlemen are called upon to keep on
speaking as long as speeches are made for the
white basis, or else acknowledge defeat in argu-
ment it is the child's play fhe lasttag and is un-
worthy of either Legislators or constitution-makers
With The proficiency in that way already display
ed on both sides, this plan Of debate would make
the session perpetual at least cause it to last
Ill the people should rise up masse,and give the
really last tag Of stopping the supplies.
We have not a doubt that three-fourths of the
people would hail with infinite pleasure resolu-
ton TO close the debate on day certain, without
any understanding to make it nugatory. The
popular cry, in all quarters, is "A vote, speedy
vote, and no more speeches :"

The track on the Worcester Railroad beyond the

RAIN AND HAIL,

We have had, for two or three days. very chaugeable
weather, being visited alternately with sunshine and
showers. On Monday there were two heavy showers
rain, accompanied with ha and the temperature be-
very considerably lowered. We understand that
the hail very short distance from the city;
and extended for many miles to South.
The .hallsones, as large pigeons eggs, covered
the ground in some places. One gentleman brought
large supply developed in blanket, yesterday, into
the city, as specimen of the storm. Another told
that, alter witnessing the quantities OF hail that fell on
Monday he has not the least remnant lett ofscepticsm
relative to the celebrated hail storm liz Jasper county,
which was graphically described few years ago by a
well known gentleman of that county

STATE CONVENTION.

saturday morning, before the Convention went
into Committee ofthe Whole, Mr.. Wise called upon
Mr. Bolts to take the floor in Committee, so as to
bring forward his Compromise to-day, and expressed
his desire to make his Intended speech afterwards
Mr. Bolts assened to the suggestion 1t was inferred
from Mr.. Wise's remarks that he was disposed to
come into the support Of Mr. Bolts proposition des.
pairing OF securing the simple suffrage basis
In Committee, Mr.. Goode concluded his argument
in favor OF the mixed basis and presented many forcble
views. Mr.. Bolts next gained the floor, and is ex-
pected to introduce and sustain his compromise this
morning.
