I always have been, and always expect
to be, an advocate of the right of every
people to establish such forms of govern
ment as they think conducive to their own
happiness and welfare. If this capability
does not existin the people, then our whole
theory of governments is a falsehood and a
cheat. I have always advocated the doc
trinc of alteration, amendment or repeal,
and have ever looked upon .faolities in a
free government as contrary to its spirit
and dangerous to the peoples indepen-
dence, if not a reflection on the intelligence
of those who are to come after u.s. am,
therefore, in favor of the principles of the
Territorial bills before Congress, to organ

are not satisfactory to the members of the

Daring Robbery.

On Friday morning of last week, be-
tween the hoar of one and two o'clock,
some person or persons entered the house
Of one of our fellow citizens, George Har.
per, and took therefrom two thousand and
ten dollars. The money had been care
fully put into Bureau drawer and then
locked up; but withal it seems that it was
not sufficiently tight to withhold the hands
OF the mid ight robber, from it's contents.
Mr.. Harper feels confident that after he
went to bed that he heard some one walk
ing about his premises, yet he supposed
it was his neighbor getting water. The
first alarm that Mr.. Harper had of the
theft, was on the person going out of the
House, in closing the door which led from
the room, where the stealing had been
done. had made some noise, when Mr..
Harper was aroused from his quiet slum-
bers. and said to his wife that there was
some one in the House. Mr.. Harper
noticed that the doors were not as he had
left them when he retired, SO he got up
and looked around, and twas to true, there
had been some one in, and gone again
Upon search the discovery was made, that
the Bureau had been robbed ofthe amount
above stated, and Mr.. Harper immedi.
ately went to his next door neighbor to
arouse him, and while doing this, he saw
tall man, dressed in black standing or
the railroad track short distance from
him apparently in study which way tc
go, and that he thought he started west
ward; directly after the robbery was com
mitted. Mr.. Harper With others made :
through search, but could ret no clue t.
the matter. We still hope the thief O
thieves will be found out We under rstanc
that the Kenton folks, who have met wit
several such accidents, have look out
as well as suspicion on certain supposed
guilty ones, SO the guilty may yet be con
yicted. AS general thing such scoun
drels are found out.

SENATE, Feb. 14.-The only matter OF
importance, beside the usual rotine of ma

introduced by Mr.. Jewett, relative to the
proposal of amendments to the constitu-

whole subject to a joint committee of five
Senators and six members of the House of
Representatives, to whom the whole sub

port such amendments, if any are needed,
as may be found necessary, for the action
of the two houses. When reported, if
agreed to by three-ffths of TIE members
elected, they will then be submitted to

sideration of various bills.
HousE.-After the presentation of about
the usual number of petitions, and the
passage of the court bill for the third dis
trict, and another bill of local character,
the Committee on Public Works submit
ted a report on the bill providing for the
sale Of the public works of the State, re-
commenting its indefinite postponement--
the people having neyerpetitioned for such
sale, and therefore being, it is presumed,
against surrendering the control of the
works. The committee allude to the di-
minished revenue as the result of the very
great reduction of tolls, to which the
State was driven by railroad competition;
and the increased expenditures are salts
factorilly accounted for in the re-construc-
ton of many of the works, which were
originally anything but substantial in their
character. The report is quite volumin-
Gus.
Upon the objection being raised that the
bill had not taken its regular course
through Committee of the Whole, the re-
port was withdrawn.
The resolution in favor of abolishing the
life tenure in the Office OF Judge in the U.
IS. Supreme Court, and making the Judges
elective by the people, was adopted with
great unanimity.
The bill to provide for Commissioner to
revise the criminal practice and codify the
criminal laws of the State, was debated
at great length in Committee of the Whole,
where it still remains. 5aa
