Upon announcing this result. the Gin

"Not one Whig voted in the affirmative, whi
eleven who hail from the Democratic party vutet

There was proposition which, in our opinion
lies at the foundation uipopular sovereignty vntet
down by Convention protesting TO be Demo
cratic! God help such Drmoc acy!"
We must agree with the Enquirer ,ha
the power does lie at the foundation o
both popular" aud individual" sove
reignty to violate contracts and refus,
to pay debts, especially when one has il
in his power to beat the aggrieved party
upon the eXecu'ion;" yet every homes
man will rejoice heartily that clever
Democrats were found in the Cnnstitu
tiodal Convention. who dared deny thu
right of the State tu violate contracts all,
take away the privileges attached there
to. at the mere will and pleasure of al
accidental legislature and without an,
good reason. God will always help sue!
