OF Island No. 10, March 81 - r H.
Everything is quiet ut Island No. 10. The
mortars continue firing slowly day and night,
at intervals Of every half hour, mostly con-
centrated upon the upper battery which ia now
FILLING to pieces. This battery has not replied
for two days. Only one gun can be seen in
position, and that is probably "Quaker.''
The batteries upon the main (rennessee)
shore, and upon the Island, are also mystcri-
ously silent, Their eneampmcnts grow
smaller, day BY day, and transports still con-
tinue flying about apparently carrying away
troops.
The river is still rising, and everything is
overdowed. The rebels are drowned out Of
some OF their batteries and are attempting to
erect new ones, but the well directed fire Of
our mortars prevents them.

THE PROPOSED CONSTITUTION.
The Convention has at last got through
with its 1abors and adjourned sine de.
The 17th of June is the day fixed for tax
ing the vote On the ratification Of the pro-
posed Constitution.
After pretty careful examination Of the
Constitution, as We have been able
to find it, We come to the following conclu-
sions:
1st- That taken as whole it is not so
good as the old Constitution.
3D. The people VIII not like its workings
as well, nor viii they feel as happy underit.
Sd. In almost every article can be seen
the tracks Of knayery and demagoguism.
It is stuffed with partisan trickery, and is
not the production Of honest and patriotic
men, but Of schen,ing politicians.
WcwM spread the document entire he
fore our readers as Soon as al official copy
has been prepared, and space can. be
found for it. The whole oft has appeared
from time to time in detached parts in our
columns, and the collected publication Of
these parts by contemporary, lacked {as-
cording to our Springfield dispatch this

sirable to give
4th. The North half Of the State is swim
died out Of its just and equitable weight in
the future Legislation Of the Siate. The ap-
portionment law is dishonest and unfair
to an outrageous degree. The futurs

souls, and each Of the other two Districts
only 100000; the purpose Of this swindle
being to give the secession .sympathizers

well as Of the law-making body.
9th. The government Of the State will
cost about double Us much as does the
present one. Taxes will be largely en-.
hanced, and everything connected with
salaries and compensation Of of1lceholders

this beyond controversy. The witnesses
called before the committee were men of
nndoubted yerncity and character. Some
Of them occupy high positions in the
army, some of. them high positions IN
civil life. differing in political sentiments.
Their evidence proves remarkable con-
currence of opinion and judgment. Our
own people and foreign nations must with
one accord, however they have hesitated
heretofore. eonsign to lasting odium the
authors of crimes which in their details
exceed the worst excuses Of The Scpoys

revive the recollections of the cruelties to
which savage tribes subject their prison
ers. They were buried, in many cases,
naked with their faces downward. They
were left to decay in the open air, their
bones being carried off as trophies, some
times, as the testimony proves. to be used
as personal adornments, and one witness
deliberately avows that the head of one Of
our most gallant officers was cut of by
secessionist, to be used as drinking cup
on the occasion of his marriage.

no boat up from the fort to-day, and moth.
