no friend whom be desired to press for II

The Constitutional Convention.

VI WV 1hblVoNA amendments as NlitN A'A
appropriate and informed our readers
that the Convention had adjourned with
out direct action on the amendments which
the members Of the Convention were elect
ed to act upon.
The Waterman of jan IL contains an
account at considerable length, of what was
said and done after the said committee
made their report.
From that we learn that the Convention
did not adjourn without day on the 9th, as
we had been informed, though they finished
up their business on that day--all except
the important item Of meeting on Saturday,
Chose who remained for the purpose Of
voting another &C adjournment to Monday
by which means pay was secured for Sun
day and Monddy-two days after most Of
them, as we suppose, were safely at home
The expectation Of the people Of the State,
beyond question, was that the Convention
would reject all the amendments proposed
by the Council of Censors but We think
few were prepared to see the Convention
take the strange course which it did take to
accomplish that result. After they have
had time for reflection, we think Il good
many of the men who composed the Conycn-
ton will be surprised at their course.
We may remark on this matter another
day but for the present we leave the re
port of the Committee and their resolutions
to speak for themselves. We take them
from the W atchman.
The Committee appointed to report what
action is appropriate on the proposed amend
mcnts,
RIroET:
That the amendments are numerous AMI
important: that they contemplate many and
radical changes in our present Constitution.
We decline expressing amy opinion on the
merits or dement's of the proposed amend
ments. Our attention has been directed
mainly to the ordnance under which this
Convention was called and elected. In t'at
ordinance the Council Of Censors limited
the number of the delegates t. ninety. This
number is apportioncd among the several
counties, by toc ordinance, and the election
made by a plnrohiY vote.
This wide departure from all former pro
cedent or usage, to us seems strange and
startling.
On the first Wednesday in June. HI.
the Convention which declare the lndopaa-
dcncc of Vermont, met according to previous
adjournment at Windsor. At that meeting
a Committee was appointed to make a draft
OF Il Constitution. and II resolution was
adopted recommending to zach iotra to choose
delegates to meet in Convention at Windsor
on the second day of july following. On

a CORRESPONDENT from Stowe, gives a
long account in the Wdtchman of a dis
graceful affair in that place on the 4th inst.
'Some 30 or 40 men and boys waylaid the
Rev. Mr.. Pier. a Methodist local clergyman
OF Stowe, conducted him past the Parsonage
TO the Centre Village, where they called at a
tavern and requested him to make a speech
and take something to drink, both of which
he declined but was intimidated or forced
to take a little after which they took him
back to the lower village, in an insulting,
abusive manner. to another tavern, compel
led him to "taste a little more and then
put him into u smoke-house, and smoked
him with burnt leather scraps. The mob
then took him home to his family, and babe
him leave town on or before Wednesday eve,
(then) next, with his family, or they would
tar and feather him and ride him out of
town on n rail. Not being able to close up
his business 50 soon, to remove, he sent on
Monday morning for two ieading infuen-
tiai men, who, it is said, "pinked" at the
transaction, if they did not encourage it,
and whom he thought might control the
rabblc, and asked leave to stay in torn
a hHle longer. in order to arrange his af-
fairs-which was granted" All because he
was the unfortunate means, through igno.
rance, of spreading the small pox in Stowe.
The pertinent inquiry is made "Where
