From the foregoing, and many other
reasons which might be adduced, / infer
that the form Of government proposed will
not promote IN the highest degree, the gen
eral happiness aud welfare of the citizens,
which is our postulate. And further, that
1t does not conform to the second, to
wit that the Constitution is the deliberate
will of the whole people rs to their mode
OF government, &c, is to my mind clearly
demonstrated in the action of the C8nven-
ton itself. If the Convention fully be-
lieved that this proposed form OF govern
ment, aud no other, was the will and wish
OF the people, why refuse them the poor
privilege Of expressing their sentiments at
the polls, for or against Battelle's resolu-
ton? This WAS all it proposed. The
reason Is patent. The ultimate action of
the Convention was obviously moulded
and controlled by those who were not only
opposed to present or prospective free
State, but to new State; and the course
pursued was and is certain to accomplish
its defeat.
To expect Congressional endorsement
Of this Constitution, is simply absurd.
YHllandigham perhaps would vote for it,
it any person desires his vote, but he
alone, of all the representatives from the
free States, would or could 10 so, unless
they court political death more than men
latterly generally do,
Time in this matter is important. A
new State will sooner be formed if the
proposed Constitution were withdrawn,
without the expense of useless election,
and another Constitution reported; elimi-
mating from it all the new tangled projects
on County Organization, and substituting
the County Court system, amended as
above suggested, and adopting In the Con-
stitution, us part and parcel thereof, the
Bntelle resolution or its equivalent. This
could with a properly constituted Conven-
tion be done in three days; but it would
be essential to the accomplishment of this
result, for the people now to address them
selves to the object in earnest, and weed
out from the Convention the MOccasin. Ran
ger allies, by public meetings or otherwise,
and send true men in their place
The Constitution would then commend
itself to the wants, feelings aud interests
of the people and would be adopted by
them by acclamation, and Congress would
welcome the new State as adding nm ad-
ditional star in the azure galaxy of our
national elnblem-a new ally in support of
our Constitutional Government, and a new
competitor in the race Of prosperity, re-
nown and empire. JrNIrs.

THE DRAFr-RIoHNosp IAnKEEs.

The Yankees in Richmond, who have
been trading and peddling in the neces-
sites of war, are showing characteristic
acuteness in eluding the draft for military
service. Their management is to get some
contract from the government, no matter
how petty, and then plead exemption of
public contractors. Ofcourse these crea-
lures are close calculators. and are quite
willing to take petty contracts, even at
losing prices, to save thereby the unpleas.
Antness of fighting or the cost of obtaining
a substitute.
We can count ou our fingers a score of
instances of this management by we'll
known Yankee merchants and tradesmen
in Richmond. We hear of a Yankee deal
er offering the exemption of himself and
workmen from military service by some
paltry contract for official upholstery; Of
another, acoachmaker, getting n contract
for haversacks, or some other trifle; and of

The muster rolls just handed in to the
colOnels OF the Nineteenth aud One hun.
dred aud seventy ninth regiments are the
most ridiculously curious documents it has
ever been our luck to encounter. Ia their
anxiety to get clear of militia duty, hun
dreds of the men have attached to their
names the record of some permanent in
jury or horrible distemper. The rolls are
thus made complete catalogues of all the
ills that flesh is heir to. The great num-
ber of one-eyed and deaf men, the preva-
lence of chronic diarrhpa, and rheuma-
tism in all its varieties, is truly astonish-
ing. Some parties, who perhaps could
think of no particular affliction, have sta
ted in general aud comprehensive terms,
that they were ''physicnlly disabled" and
in "bad health" One old gentleman, who
avowed himself a ahypochondriac, actually
appended his will and codicil to his sig

selves exempted by the Governor" and
numerous citizens, though Ouly perhaps
making pair of shoes for clerk in the

From the Richmond Examiner, March :
That misfortuues are often blessings in
disguise is prOVerb of many languages.
Those lately suffered by the Southern Con
tederacy, in one essential point, certainly
illustrate its truth. At the end of this
war We may look back on Fishing Greek,
Dranesville, Roanoke, Henry and Donelson
as the true causes of our salvation.
Had not the Northern army made these
general movements in midwinter, the peo-
pie and the government would have loung-
ed through the Spring as they did through
the autumn aud winter, and the opening of
the true campaign would have found US

more, with the army dwindling daily under

the people sinking into Indifference. We
would have been everruu between the 18th
of April and the lst of May.
Fortunately for us, the Northern gov

its first movements secured success on the

their armies from attaiuing great results
in consequence of those victories. The
facts that have put the United States be.
