your Convention will amend your State
Consultation, abolishing slavery, and
denying to all future Legislatures the
power to legislste that there is property

you could extend the elective franchise
to all persons of color who can read the
Constitution of the URited States in
English and write their names, and to
all persons of color who own real estate
taxes thereon, you would completely
disarm the adversary, and set an ex ana

you can do with perfect safety, and you
thus place the Southern States, in ref

the same basis with the Free HtAtee. -

was by several degrees the coolest morning
of the season. At half-psst five o'clock a
thermometer which hung in a nook not

The shops had a holiday appearance, in

with heavy drapery Of frost-work, equivs-
lent to a shutter SO far as impenetrability
was concerned. Animals were risky, and
foot travellers acted a dozen years younger
than they severally were. Men took on
layer on layer of clothing. and the rind
bristled with fur. Atevery nose tip hung a
perfect liquid sphere, clear as crystal, to
which the laws of the universe did not re-
fuse or hesitate to give form. If Fouche
discovered that "the air is full of poniards, .
we surely would not have departed
far from the truth had We said that
the air, yesterday morning, was full
of razors. 1t was the climate Of Lap

been wrenehed from her base, and anchor

DrD He EXCEED HIS AUTHORITY - On
Friday afternoon of last week, the Commits
~sioners Of Cuyahoga county gave the Mona
Benefit Society, of this city, permission to
lay the coffin enclosing the remains of DR..
John W. Hughes, in a large city vault in
the Erie street cemetery. A certain woman
who had got permission to place the body Of
her sister in the same vault, protested against
the admission of the murderer's remains.
The delegation of MsHxmen, who took the
Doctors body in charge, inform US that on
Saturday forenoon a woman, the remains of
whose child rest in the same city vault
came to them with the tidings that Mr..
Stedman, the City Sexton, and removed the
Doctors body. On investigation, they
found that he had had q grave dug in the
potters' field in the new cemetery, and was
about to remove the remains there for in
terment. The committee protested, and
bought a lot in the Erie street cemetery,
wherein a grave was dug, Saturday after
noon, and the body buried. They saw the
coffin put out of sight, but the suspicion
flashed upon their minds afterward, that
possibly it might have been smptisd of the
remains. TheyPurposed exhuming it yesterE
dsy, but the bitter cold weather deferred
them from doing SO. An examination will
be made as soon as convenient. The COM
mittee have determined TO lay this matter
before the City Council mex Tuesday even
ing, for the purpose of ascertaining if the
City Sexton did not transcend his authority
in removing the remains from a city vault
after the County Commissioner had made
the same accessible TO them.
