The Quincy Whig Of tho 1st inst. says, in re-
latioa to the Pete, Funk Constitution: The
business Of inducing the people to sustain
this bant1ing Of the Democratic Peter Funks
DOW constitutes the chief labor Of the Demo-
cratic onc-horsc country prints. One great
reliance Of the Conyentionists is On the di6-
eretion Of their Commission in properly tax
ing the vote Of the soldiers. The Commission
has already sta'ztd, soe lara, to eisit The 1tntA
eotalry al St. Louis, to take its vote. IA big
thing Is expected to be realized from that
source-the reason why is well known in pri-
Fate circles. We doubt, however, whether
the Commission Wil be able to find Farms
"orfh's cavalry and certain other regiments
from the North Of the State in time to be
counted in We shall see, A just regard for
the interests Of the State, and Of fairness to ali
interests, would have sent this Convention
home without attempting to frame constitu.
tion when the country was struggling for na-
tional life. But no; such an opportunity
could not be neglected; the return Of peace
promised too large an accession to the Repub-
lican ranks, and so while giving attention to
the blaze and thunder Of war, and struggling
TO end it successfully, we must fight also to
defeat the Infamous scheming Of men who are
largely IN sympathy with Southern treason.
