Tue NEW Constitution is the most pop
ular candidate ever before the people OF Viz
ginia. 1t will be seen from the governors proc
iamation to-day that, in nearly all the counties
heard from, in the small vote of 77,495 On lS4S
the whole presidential vote was upwards of
92.OOO.) the new constitution receives the as
founding majority of yffy-seren thousand s1r
hundred and i,oenty- y-nine-or very nearly 10 J..
Only Is counties are not heard from, VIZ: Am
herst. Bedford, Caroline, Charles city, Gimer,
Greene, Hancock, King George, Lewis, Mason,
Ohio, Peasants Powhatan, Tazewell, Wetzel
aud Wyoming. Only five counties are reported
as having given majority against the new
constitution, viz: Amelia, Nottoway, Prince
George, southampton and Warwick.
The new organic law has been triumphanty
sanctioned by the people-and Virginia has
passed through a most radical and important
civil revolution, quietly, safely and happily for
the present and future generations, we sincerely
believe Under the new system, we expect to
ace the old State take new and salutary bound
forwards, even though she should have another
pilot than the much Wanted orator of kanaw-

the court, was decided yesterday, in favos Of the

Judge Morsell delivered an elaborate opinion
concluding with an order that the bill be dis
missed as to the sureties, but retained as TO the
administrator Of Bomford, for an account ot the
assets of his estate, if the compliments desired
such an account to be taken.
Judge Dunlop, concurring with his brother

At bis req uest, separate opinion upon one point
