would be taken as "snaPjudgment. -
Mr.. S. S. Baxter, another advocate of the
white basis, then proposed that poll Of Ill
the qualified voters should be taken in the
three wards Of the city, on the triple ques-
ton ofmixed basis, suffrage basis. or com
promise. Mr.. Bouldin, and other friends Of
the mixed basis. cordially acquiesced in
the suggestion, a resolutionto that effect
was written and unanimously agreed to.
and the meeting adjourned.
The most marked development Of the
meeting was that the division Of sentiment
was evidently between the mixed basis and
the white, without regardto compromise,
and SO, we imagine, it will be in the popu-
lar vote about to be taken.

bers were for The suffrage basis, which
would reduce the majority to three, and a
change Of two would have reversed the
decision. Ifgentlemen now felt themselves
at liberty to disregard their way bills, and
the Convention had been justly organized
even with the mixed basis, the suffrage
basis would have majority of ten. He
supposed Mr.. Rives Of Prince George be
converted from the opinions Of his way
bill he could not know whether his peo-
pie had not changed too and Mr.. S. pre-
scribed for the case, that Mr.. r. should
agree to submit the question of basis to the
people. MIR. S. paid high compliment to
the abilities Of Mr.. Scott Of Fauquier, and
expressed his regret that he had not exer-
ted them to bring Eastern men to the posi-
ton Of fraternal equality desired by the
West In conclusion, Mr.. S. referred to
the noble example of Washington, who sur
rendered power when it was within his
grasp, and he invoked Eastern Virginia to
establish new epoch in the history of gov
ernments by yielding to the just claim of
the West During Mr.. Summers speech,
which occupied about two hours and a
half, there was occasional applause in the
galleries, and very decided manifestation
at its close.
Mr.. Rves,ofPrince George,in rejoineder
to what Mr.. Summers had said ofthe eman-
cipation proceedings in the Legislature,
quoted largely from the record, to show
that Western men did take an active part
in the scheme, and cited the remarks Of Mr..
5. himself, Of whom he said that BelzeLub
was not allowed to cast out devils. Mr..
II. spoke with his characteristic rapidity,
humour and point. He closed, with an
anecdote, Illustrative Of his determination
to stand by his way bill to the last. We
could not catch the details Of the story but
its point was in the saying of fellow who
was rather worsted in fight, but would
not cry enough. When asked why he did
not, he said if be had been fighting for him
self, he would have said the word, but he
was fighting for Sal. (his sweetheart and
he would die before he would say it, Mr..
X. appealed to Eastern men to remember
that they were fighting for Sal

otherwise have done. but he expressed
bis decided preference for the White Ba-
sis as the true Republican principle Of rep
resenfation.
During the tendency Of a proposition to
adjourn. Mr.. w. f. Watson declared him
selfa White Basis man, and as such, would
vote for an adjournment, in order to pre-
vent it from being said that the meeting had
taken the vote in favor of the Suffrage Basis,
after some portion ofthe citizens had lefi, ow-
ing to the latenesss of the hour. He would
therefore suggest an adjournment,in order
that full expression Of opinion could be
had at another meeting. Here it was sug-
gested that a resolution be proposed to take
the sense of the qualified voters Of Rich
mond, by having polls opened in each of
the Wards of the city. Accordingly, the
Secretary read a resolution which he had
drawn up to meet this view, but as it con-
templated the appointment of three citi-
zens IN each ward to casrass the city, and
ascertain the wishes of the voters-in-
stead of opening the polls-the resolu-
ton was modified by Col. ]. w. Spalding.
and further amended by Mr.. S. S. Baxter.
The question being put upon the passage
Of the resolution, it was adopted by an O.
overwhelming majority.
The resolution was acquiesced in by
Mr.. Wood Bouldin, who had been called
on for speech, after the conclusion Of
Judge Robertson's remarks.
Mr.. b., when called to the stand, said
the hour was too late to expect the meeting
to be held together to hear another speech,
but fit should be decided to adjourn over
to some other evening, he would avail
himself Of the occasion to submit some re-
marks in which he would endeavor to show
that the true interest of Richmond was to
stick to the principles Of our fathers. Mr.
b. is decided advocate for the Mixed
| Basis.
The resolutions adopted in regard to
taking the sense of the voters, read as fol-
lows:
Resolved, That the Chairman of this
meeting be requested to appoint three Com
missloners, in each Ward, to open a poll
on Wednesday, the 7th inst, and take the
sense of the qualified voters of this city, in
regard to the White or Suffrage Basis, the
Mixed Basis, and Compromise. The
polls to be kept open three days, if ecessa-
ry, to obtain the whole vote of the city.
Resolved, further, That when the voting
shall have been ended, and the result known
the Commissioners be requested to furnish
a copy of the vote to each Of our representa-
tives from this district in the Constitutional
Convention now in session in Richmond.
The two latter resolutions having been
adopted almost by reclamation, the NEE
ting, at quarter to o'clock, adjourned.
