WAsHISGrON, Jan. 25.-There is 10 longer any doubt

Secret Sessions.

An unusual and, in our opinion, very oeJecuonsoe
practice has been naugursted with this era OF Conven-
tons Of excluding the public from their Deliberations
and passing much OF their time in secret session. prac
tee which we trust will not be adopted by the Virginia
Convention shortly to assemble. No sufficient reason
has vet been assigned for this dstrust of the people nor
as We conceive any be given. Publicity in our leg
slatve and judicial bodies one Of the most important
safeguards OF liberty and justice, and upon no reasona-
Die grounds can be asserted that proper to conceal
from the people the acts of their servants.
If is claimed that it may be necessary to conceal
from an enemy the debates of the Convention it may be
answered that they Of very little consequence, the
result must sooner later be known every where, and
TO an enemy the result alone is of consequence the pro-
cess BY which it arrived at is mmateria provided 1t
is fair and legal With the honorable, intelligent and
heightened class Of men who compose the Southern Cou-
venton an enemy has little chance for corruption or in
trigue.
Naturally, the people, who are profoundly interested
in the action of the Convention will feel dstrustu when
its proceeding are studousy concealed Any who are
disposed to be scouented with its decision, will not be
likely to be better sati,f when they prohibited
from knowing the reasons and process by which that de-
cson is aaiued-and every for discussion among
our own people, even the slightest ought in the pre-
sent crisis to be carefully avoided.
The delegates are responsible to the people, and should
not fear to submit to the popular tribunal all their pro-
ceedings. We can no valid reasons Why the Con-
ventons should thus rather oseHtaio'sy cloak their
proceedings in dark lantern mystery, and delegates
should bear in mind that no small share of the Obloquy
Il basl
for nearly fifty years arose not solely from its designs
which have been accounted innocent and patriotic once
or twice in the lapse OF those years. but principally from
its sitting with "closcd doors 1t was imagined that
something very beinous concealed under all that
MYSTERY tha: they loved darkness rather than light be-
cause their deeds we're evil but they in reality shut out
the public only because they belonged TO that class OF
politicians Who AS jefferson said feared tie people, aud
the decision of the people has consequently damned
them TO everlasting fame
