ST. PAULs, via Chicago, July 25th.-The dou-
ble.headed Constitutional Convention is still in
session. The Republicans are in convention in
the hall of the Capitol, with A. P Balcomb,
President and the Democrats in the Council

cepted, and number qualified. The Democrats
today numbered thirty-two, several having be-
come disatfected and returned home. The cre-
dentials of the members of the Democratic Con-
vention have not yet been reported upon, and no

that they confer upon you the right to thus
appropriate the water of the Kaw river,

to allow You to sprinkle Massachusetts street
with water, and l now warn you that if you
continue the reasonable business / shall be
obliged to arrest your proceedings with my
faithful soldiery-if possible without the eff
fusion of blood, but treason must be pun

peaceful and constitutional method of doing
it By the love you bear your wives and
