hoped that the example set by the
Assembly will put stop to this flibustering
in the Senate, and that the bill viii be suffered
to pass that body in the shape in which it
leaves the Assembly. II any amendment is
made II should be one to provide for the cleo
tion Of the New York AMI Kings county dele
gates upon county tickets instead Of by Assem-
bly, districts This would enable the respecta-
BILE and responsible part Of the communities
to nominate and elect delegations composed
throughout Of good men, and would prevent
the return Of mere ward politicians to the Con-
vention. Such provision would meet the en-
donement Of the independent men Of both
political organizations, as well as Of the tax-
payers and the friends Of an honest and fear
less judiciary and sound municipal govern
ment without regard to party. But the Senate
should cease its flibustering opposition to this
important measure and adopt 1t at onoe, with
or without the amendment we have suggested.

' One Of the most interesting and valuable
charities In the city-the Nursery and Child's
h 'spital-gives Its annual ball at the Academy
cfA 'sic tomorrow (Monday) evening. or the
imporA mt services rendered by this institution
to The community some idea can be formed
from the stA tistics embraced In the report which
we pablisheA yesterday. Without entering
again upon theAs details it Is sufficient for M to
cay that the charity does more good with its
limited npans than any other that we know Of
That such Is the general feeling ID evident from
the interest taken 10 the ball, which constitutes
one of its principal means Of support Last
year it produced upwards Of twelve thousand
dollars. This season there is reason 10 believe
1t will bring in considerably more. Efforts arc
being made to render the bali one Of the most
attractive and brilliant that has yet been given
in the metropolis, and there are very few ladies
of social position that are mot to be found in
the list Of patronesses. II is gratifying to And
that such awarm interest is taken in the sue
cess Of this deserving institution. In NO way,
let us add, can the love Of amusement which
distinguishes our community find more legit-
mate opportunity for enjoyment.

The Legislature and the State Censtit ~ ional
Convention.
After spirited contest on Friday night, ex-
tending into Saturday morning, the Assembly
passed the bill to provide for the election Of
delegates to the State Constitutional Conven-
ton. The bill passed in o very good shape,
the provision for the election of thirty-two
delegates from the State at large, In addition
to the Assembly district representatives, being
embodied In it. In The Senate the measure
has not yet met with such good success, several
amendments being proposed and adopted
which are clearly designed to embarrass the
bill. Among them are those extending the
right Of suffrage TO negroes and women.
II is rumored that the opposition of some Of
the Senators to Governor Fenton's proposition
to add thirty-two State delegates to the Con-
vention is induced by disappointment in some
OF the Governors nominations to the officcs
within his gift Whatever may be the cause

Massnck usests and tho Constitutional Amend.
At. the opening o the present session of the
Massachusetts Legii lature in January last q
special committee twas appointed to take into
consideration the proposed constitutional
amendment. That G ommittee have just SUBJ
mitted, reports, the ma jority recommending the
rejection Of the amen dment, and the minority
its adoption The former Is signed by five out
Of the, seven members of the committee, in
cluding the 'tsmartest OF tae two colored men
in ths House." The majority report will, it is
probable, be adopted, and therefore Massa-
clrusetts may be classified as. opposed to the
constitutional amendment, aud yoked once
again with her old furious Bobadil antipode,
SGuths Carolina. But we do not think the vote
of Massachusetts will be required to secure
the adoption of the amendment by three-fourths
Of the loyal States. With the new State of
Nebraska there are now twentyseven States
recognized as in the Union, and three-fourths
Of this number (twenty-oneJ, with perhaps two
or three others, can be secured in favor of the
measure, thus leaving Massachusetts, out in the
cold or foundering among the disowned and
orphaned rebel States. 1t will make NO diff
ference, then, whether the arrogant little
State Of Massachusetts, or the pompous little
"inchoatc" State Of South Carolina votes for
the amendment or not 1t is bound to become
the constitutional law Of the land, and as such
Massachusetts, will be compelled to respect H.,
whether she, together with that negro balanc Q
ofpower in'ber Legislature, Like it or decry It,
The States adopting 1t will represent the gov
ernment and Massachusetts, will have to &C.
