THANK con. AND TAKE COURAGE.

IT, the EdtOr o. tie Uh'g;
The Convention is nobly coming up to the work. The
proposed amendment the Constitution, just, fair
,o1itsbe system Of taxation, on the ed pai0rem prnci
M is one grand step in the rgh; direction in the way
Of reform Let the people ratiy this by unanimous
yoe on the day of election Heaven help the man who
OWLS n, croes and votes against it, when miny more
men, not owning negroes so cheerfuy submitting 10
largely increased to carry war for the defence
OF this species OF property more than for any other
sr Gle cause For the honor of humanity, magnaIimity,
aud PATRIOTISM let there be vote against this amend
meut in all Eastern Virginia.
When the Convention meet again in June, let them
follow up this reform by readjustment OF suffrage, on
ncple which will equalze burdens and privileges, and
W. need never more fear the arts of demagogues in DIS
turbng the Government Let them say that men shall
yote in the State on the principle that they vote in
i,iat stock companies for have joint interest in
the STATED aud shall be safe, so far as tt dlsrlou-
ton Of power can make any people safe.
What Joint stock company could exist one year, ii
il had an equal vote in the election Of It's officers or in
determining questions Of policy submitted to the vote
of the company In such companies, one share entities
the owner to one vote while hundred shares, with its
hundred fold interest of duty and responsibility, gives
the owner a hundred votes, it ought TO do In the
Commonwealth, every man alike, because he IS man,
has one share at stake and therefore justly entitled TO
his one vote on the ground Of bis humanity. But
who, on a moments reflection, suppose that each
mans stake in the State is equal and that he ought
there to have equal power in the choice OF rulers or de-
termning the policy OF the government with the man
who bears a hundred times the burden? Ii Is the most
sheer nonsense the most fearful Injustice that evc'
endangered and overthew government II never hat
proysd auv thing else than fatal and from the nature
the case it never can and viii, prove anything
else By all that il hopeful in the future, let Us reform
this thing now and start OF nationa
