RHODE IsLAND.-To-day the people of Rhode
Island will vote on proposition from the Legsla-
ture to call Constitutional Convention to amend
the Constitution of that State in three particulars,
viz The abolition Of the registry tax the extension
of the time of registration qualification for
voting and the distrieting of the cities and towns
in the election of Representatives to the General
Assembly. The action of the Convention is pro-
posed to be confined to these three points. The
calling of the Convention, however, meets with con-
siderable opposition, and it is not impossible that it
will be defeated

MASSACHUSETTS ELECTION.

The majority against the new Constitution in
MASSACHUSETTS is about FIVE thousand. There is
no choice of Governor by the people, but the Wings
having large majority in the Legislature, will
elect EMORY WAsHBURN. To the Senate eleven
Wings are elected, and nine Of all other stripes,
leaving twenty vacancies To the House l62 Wings,
81 Coalitonists, and seven National Democrats are
elected, and there are 166 vacancies in which, how
ever, the Wings have at least an equal chance with
their opponents.
1t appears that there is considerable difference IN
the votes on the eight propositions submitted to the
people in amendment of the Constitution. The
largest majority will be against proposition No 9,
which made judges of jurors. The fifth proposition,
which relates to imprisonment for debt has received
large vote, though it is probably not adopted
The sixth proposition, which prohibited sectarian
schools, received the largest affirmative vote Of any
one of the eight propositions.
The vote for Governor in all the State, except
two or three towns, foots up as follows: For the
Whig candidate go, 759; Freesoil Democrat 35, ITO;
National Democrat 5,470; FrcesoiI 2e, ,So7j scat
tering 224.

'Uhe late Perrin Busbee.

We find the following sketch of the history of
this gentleman in the last number of the Raleigh
Standard:
Mr.. Busbee graduated with distinction at the Uni
yersity OF North Carolina, and was admitted at an
early age TO the practice of the law. He rose rapidly
IN his profession. and Justly regarded, at the time
of his death. one of our soundest and ablest law
yers As advocate he hal no superior among men
OF the same age with HIMSELF while he was nearly
always associated in important with his seniors,
who had attained the front rank in the profession
H. was most attentive 10 the interests of his clients,
aborous in the preparation of his causes. and ardent
in his pursuit OF truth and Justice
Mr.. Busbee no seeker of public Office. He
too modest TO adopt any in relation TO Of
ice which might leave the impression that he desired
it, had wish TO obtain it the heads OF others
hut al the same time man served his party more
faithfully or abored more constantly for lis prIncI
Piles than he did He member of the Baltimore
] Convention of 1840-repeatedly a member OF The
/ Democratic State COmmite-Elecior on the Cass and
fBHiler Ticket in 1848-Clerk of the House of Com
for several sessions, and at the time OF his death
Reporter of the decisions of the Supreme Court and
Councillor of State No one enjoyed more than hi
the confidence of his party, and no man more
popular with the masses in this County and District
His popularity was the growth of years, and was TIT
natural result of his unseIfshness and amiability
character. His death has occasioned profound sor
row in this community among persons of all classes
and parties. The loss is indeed heavy 10 hi
family, to the BAR to his friends here and in all quar-
tiers of the State, and 10 the State ITSELF for she hat
no more promising or brilliant son.
He has been cut down in the vigor OF manhood AM
: at period when he had most to hope for and mos
TO attach him to this present life. But regrets

upon the dull cold of DEATH" The recollectio
of his many virtues will long be cherished by hi
friends and though to those TO him by the ties
affinity and blood the bereavement is most stunning
and agonizng, still they have the consolation of know

him. and that he has left to them all the legacy of
spotless and honored name.
