a Convention to frame New Constitution -
The reason assigned in the prcam'-le for
enac'lhg the law, is because experience has
demonstrated the existence of many and
serious defects in the present Constitution of
THIS State, and 1t is necessary that the people
should have speedy relief from the inconyc-

A few things to be thought of by the
People before they Cast their Votes
on Wednesday.
The Constitution is radically defective and
inconvenicnt.
The present Constitution itself provides for
the call Of a Convention immediately after
the census Of 1860. The cost must be incur
rcd either now or five or six years hence, at
the very latest.
If the people refuse TO call a Convention
now, II large portion of the expense already
incurred, namely: the passage Of the Law.
the publication Of it in the counties of the
State the cost of publishing notice of and
holding the elections, must be again incur
rcd soon after 1860 for the demand for this
election, to ascertain the sense of the people.
is impertive, and cannot be avoided though
every man in the state opposed it.
1T is not to determine whether we will have
New Constitution or retain the present one,
for the present one declares that new che
Shall be formed after 1850. We are to de-
termnc simply if we will have the new one
now, when we have already incurred a large
p art Of the expense, or live on for five or SIX
years under defective, burdensome and ex-
penslvc Constitution. and then have all the
expense to 90 over again.
If the Judge of this circuit could sit every
working day. in every year, from now until
the end of his term of office, at least one half
Of the business in Cecil, Han ford and Balti-
more counties must be postponed for want Of
time, and persons having suits must suffer
great loss. And it is utterly impossible to
change the system except by new ConSttu-
ton.
The extra expenses which result from the
present Constitution, in the shape Of counsel
fees special judges, &C., will amount to
sum sufficient TO dcfray the expenses o. the
Convention, long before Convention can be
called under the provi sion in the present
Constitution.
That the utterly defective character Of the
Constitution, and the necessity for change.
are acknowledged by all parties: ami that
the only reason why few reckless politi-
clans of the Democratic party oppose the

Another objection to the call urged nv tLc
Dpnocrot !. Ma, ;. il will cost threc hurdr,l
thousand dollars" The Legislature anrro-
prat,d one hundred thousand dollars, or so
much thereof as may be necessary to nav for
this Convention. rthe Drm9cJat man can
tell us how, under hc present Constitution
the Delegates can draw from the Treasury
more than that sum. he is a far wiser man
chan ne has credit for The Mrce hundred
thousand dwindles down to one, or 50 much
thereof as may DC necessary.
The third objection urged is e because It is
likely to result in an increase Of the number
Of Delegates from Baltimore" Thus placing
the counties in the power of the city. Who
says this is hEeiV! The CccH Democrat, Tile
HUEdHd UnlOn, and papers of that class
Docs any sensible man suppose that the City
! Of Baltimore with etcrcn delegates in Il Con-
vrntion can induce the county delegates,
| numbering more than ciohty to give hcr're-
presentation in the Legislature lager than
theirs combined IN no other way can the
city control the counties, and if any man be-
lievcs this let him 90 to the polls and vote
against Convention, for the idea Of reform
or Improvement can never enter such a mind
as his. Perhaps it might be well here to IN
qulrc what party first gave the cily Of Bali-
more an increased representation Z Let the
Democrat answer.
The fourth reason is g because a change
in our present Constitution was not asked for
by the people" This is the most Singularly
