provisional government" Now here is
good opportunity for testing the Con-
stitutionality of the Bill, and of the
question whether the .original State
governments have been destroyed OF
not. Let the election for delegates be
held as provided for by the Act OF the
General Assembly, and if either the
Convention is molested, or the officers
elected under the new Constitution are
interfered with, let the question be i'm
mediately taken to the Supreme Court
of the United States for final decision.
We are glad, therefore, that our Gene
raj Assembly has passed the Conven-
ton bill over the Governors veto, and
that the Convention is to be held. ;.
Whatever may be the final result Of
this Bill, it's disastrous effects on the
country are too plain not to be OBJ
served by all. Trade is stagnant, in
rdustry is paralyzed, and confidence
acknowledgements. Aprospect ofthe
destruction of the wealth and resources
of the South is too grave matter not to
affect the material prosperity of the
whole country. There is slight
CLEAN of hope that this fact may be
brought home to the minds of the lead
ers of the dominant party and cause
them to pause in their career before
they have brought destruction on the
country.

Our thanks are due the Leonard

These two numbers are exceedingly in
teresting. The leading articles display
the vigor and learning for which these
ancient periodicals have ever been dis
tinguished, and form striking con-

Company deserve the thanks Of the

actually under arms in the war of the Rev.
olution. Mr.. Downing's age has been

enlisted in New Hampshire near the close
Of the war, and after peace found his way
to New York, in which State he lived fol
more than half century. There have
been a dozen or more Of 'last of the

cease Of this wellknown citizen closes
the list, and that there is not now mar

parting was very affecting, both exhibiting
emotion. 1t is understood that she il

his mother yet is willing and anxious to
to do all she can to help him in his trying
situation. The prisoner is cheerful and
comfortable provided for. He has the
privilege Of prornenading in one Of the
corridors during the day; smokes and
meditates as his taste suggests. He has
but little to say to anybody, and nothing
relative to the charge under which he is
confined. It is probable that he will be
arraigned before the adjournment Of the

have had frequent interviews with him.
