Patriots Win New Jersey.

BURLINGTON. n. j.. June %, 1875.
New Jersey is definitely in the indie
pendence column. The great decision
was reached today when the Provin-
cial Congress chose a new delegation
to the Continental Congress and in
structed them by A vote of 81 to 3 to
toin with the other colonies in the
most vigorous measures for support
ing the just rights and liberties of
America, even to the extent of declar
ing the United Colonies Independent
Of Great Britain. The delegates are
further authorized to enter into a
confederacy for union and common
defense and to make treaties with
foreign nations. and the whole force
Of New Jersey is pledged in support
of these measures.
The new delegates are Richard
Stockton, Abraham Clark. John Hart,
Francis Hopkinson and the Rev. DR..
John Witherspoon.
A constitution for a new govern
ment for New Jersey has also been
adopted by a nearly unanimous vote.
BY its own terms, it is to become null
and void in case Of a. reconciliation
with Great Britain. but the patriotic
party will proceed promptly to per-
feet the new government with little
expectation that there will ever be a
reconciliation. However, this clause
in the new constitution is regarded a s
a reasonable concession to the con-
sentative patriots who still profess to
believe that the ministerial army now
on its way to New York Is bringing
