holding Counties pay two-thirds OF the poll TAX
and the Eastern counties who pay twothrds OF
their rights at hazard in an open
Convention But, say the Wings, there is no DANGER
as the Convention is to be called the federal basis.
Yet this gives to the West at this time six majority
and after the Legislature ii will be at least eight.
But there is danger, no one proposes to change
the basis in either House, and have heard it said,
there is only man in the State who has announced
himself for change. How stands this assertion :
At the last Legislature address was issued signed
by SO members, all Western men and all Wings win
one exception; the whole argument Of this address
is against the principle of taxation representation in
the Senate, which, the address says" represents
property not persons, money not men, matter not
mind. Bat it's odiousness does not stop here. tits
downright tyranny-tyranny in its most odlous
FORM The few grinding into the dust the many under
the iron heel power Such is the strong language
of these Wing gentlemen against the basis OF repre-
sentaton in the Senate. Yet nothing is meant, but
scatter murmurs and discomfort amongst the peo-
ple.'' We think Mr.. Kerr will feel rather ticklish
when he meets his friends Wood6n, Gilmer. Foster,
Caldwell and others, and tells them the Constitution
is perfect-he is for change-woud suffer his
right to be cut off, sooner than vote for change
in the representation of the Senate. But these gen.
tlemen desire nothing, nothing whatever, but +"
Convention, unrestricted by any thing but The wH OF
The Peope.'' Yet they stood ready to denounce Wes-
tern democrats having sold themselves to the East,
because they for suffrage and against their
majority Convention. Do they tell what they
want Convention for? The address has inter ALA
said, have the Judges and Magistrates elected by
the people, And what will be thought when 1t turns
that the bill offered in the Senate at the last
session, for the election of Judges and Justices by the
people, and Gihner, Bynum, Wood,fn and T. R. CaM
,oeH and others, voted nay! Senate Journal, page
37O-'71. But cannot pursue the subject further.
Enough has been adduced prove the Wings opposed
Freesuage and for open, unrestricted majority
Convention. For if the members from the 81 East
ern counties yield to this moral force majority
of 5000 coming from the West, then we ask what
becomes of the taxation principle in the Senate and
the federal basis principle in the House, Gone, multi
fed, of no value! Let then stand by the Consti-
tuition it is, amend it to Free Suffrage and in
other respects, if the people demand it, by Legislation.
and not by Convention. G.

WISCONSIN,.

Governor FARwELL, in his late Message to the
Legislature of Wisconsin, shows that the finances Of
the State, for the year ending on the 31st Deem
Der, are inno very creditable condition. He says
s'By reajon of want of funds available for such pur-
poses in tip hands Of the Treasurer the allowances and
special appropriations made by the last Legislature and
the ordinary and current expenses Of the year provided by
law and otherwise estimated, have not been paid within
the sum Of $38, 283."
The Governor estimates the expenses of the pre-
sent year at 500 000 and thinks that the available
resources will exceed that sum. He recommends,
amongstother things the adoption of General Bank
ing Law, and that Congress should be memorialized
the survey and sale Of the agricultural and mineral
lands; The improvement of rivers and harbors the
establishing at Washington of an Agricultural Bu-
reau the free navigation of the ST. Lawrence and
modification of the present Tariff SO to secure re-
venue, and to afford adequate protection to agricu-
tural nechanical, and manufacturing labor, and thus
to secure for our products permanent and remunera
tive home market. He expresses an opinion unfa-
vorable to the granting of public lands to aid in the
construction Of public works by companies or corpo-
rations.

FROM TEXAS.

We learn from Galveston papers of the 23d ulti-
mo that the Democratic State Convention of Texas
met at Austin on the 9Th of January and adjourned
the next day after having nominated Gen. SAM
HoUsToN for he Presidency, subject to the appro-
val of the National Convention. A State Executive
Committee was appointed, and the following gentle
men were nominated for Presidential Electors, VIZ
For the State at Large: Lemuel d. Evans and Guy M
Bryan and for the two Congressional Districts George
w. Smith and Robert S. Neighbors
Thirty Delegates were appointed to attend the
Democratic National Convention, amongst whom we
observe the names OF the Hon. Thos. j. Rusk, Vol
ney E. Howard, and Richardson Scurry, the pre-
sentDelegation of Texas in Congress.
A long series of resolutions were adopted by the
Convention, two of which assert
THAT the passed by the last Congress Of the
Acts are regarded by the Democracy of Texas final
adjustment Of the dangerous and yexed questions they
embrnce.
That the principles contained in the Virginia and
Kentucky resolutions of 1898 fully recognised by
this Convention as presenting true exposition of the
Constitutional rights Of the States and of the General
Government under the Federal compact and that they
are equally opposed to consolidation secession, and dis
union"
A correspondent of the Galveston News, writing
about the Convention, says:
There was a resolution introduced recommending the
Hon. DANIEL DICKINSON, of New York, the choice of
the Democracy of Texas for the office Of Vice President
of the United States which met with the most unqua
fed evidences Of approval from the entire Convention
but which was subsequently withdrawn matter Of
policy"
The News, noticing the departure of Judge WA
TRoUs of the Federal Court, and Mr.. BALLINGER,
United States District Attorney, from Galveston for
Brownsville, to organize branch of the Court at
that place, remarks:
alt is expected that the first business Of the Grand
Jury when empanncled, will be to inquire into the Often
ces committed against the United States by those who
have been participating in the difficulties the Rio
Grande the United States Attorney having received in
structions from Washington to prosecute the same"
The United States steamer Fashion had landed
eighty men Of the mounted rifles and ninety horses
belonging to the regiment at Indianoa, to reinforce
the troops on the frontier.
