Thereupon the Assembly became indig-
nant and sent a request to tue Governor
praying that he would dissolve the Leg

he refused to do, as an appeal to the peo-
pie would be fatal to the government
1t is probable that blood will be shed,

There are no mcn-Of-war at Nassau

What possible good can be obtained
by reeonsidering the Constitutional
Amendment know none in the pres:
ent posture of affairs. l do not believe
the people of the whole country will
sustain any set of individuals to change
the whole character Of our Government
by enabling actsin this way. Ihelieve,
ON the contrary, they would
eventually uphold all who have patri-
otism and courage to stand by the Con-
stitutien, and whoplace their confidence
in the people. There should be no
faltcring on the part of those who are
honestiu the determination to sustain
the several coordinate departments Of
the Government 10 its original design.
