Constitutional Convention. Conclusion of Proceedings of Monday. Monday, Dec. 23, 1850. Tbe section providing that in ail elections not otherwise provided for, every white male citizens of the United States of the age of 21 years and upwards, and who has resided in the Stale six months immediately preceding such election ; and every while male, of foreign birth, of 21 years and upwards, having resided in the (Jnited Stales one year, and having declared his intension to become a citizen of the United State, conformably to the laws of ihe United States on the subject of naturalization, and having resided in this State six months immediately preceding such election, .shall be entitled to vote in the township where he resides, except such as skull be enlisted in the army of the United States or their allies. Mr. Read of Clark moved to insert after the word tjwnship, the words "or precincts;" which was adopted. Mr. Clark of Hamilton moved to strike out the sectiou and insert a substitute, that in all elections, not otherwise provided for by this Constitution, every white male citizen of the United States of 21 years of age and upwards, who has resided in the State one year immediately preceding such election, shall be entitled to vote in the county where he resides, except such as shall be enlisted in the amies of the United States or their allies. Mr. Hitt moved to amend, so that the payment of at least one dollar in support of government shall be necessary, to entitle to a vote; laid on the table. Mr. Gordon moved to amend, so as to strike out the words ' in the township where he resides,"' and insert, the elections shall take place "at such places as shall he provided bv law;" laid on the table, aves 72, noes 31. The Convention then adjourned. Tuesday, December 24, 1850. The Convention was opened by prayer by the Rev. Mr. Farrow, a Delegate. Mr. Hall from a select committee on that subject, reported a section, providing that no man shall be held to answer for the debt, default or miscarriage of any other j er son. upon any centract entered into NM and ait r the year 1360, except in cases where executors, administrators, guardians, trustees and public officers are required to give bond and security, and where security is given by persons acting in a fiduciary capacity ; which was read and passed to a second reading. The section providing that special acts shall not be
pntsed authorizing suits ngaust the rate, fee, wn Ho offered this amendment to prevent tlioe temporari'y engaged on our public works from voting, thruugh the improper influence of iheir employers. Mr. Graham of Warrick said, that a very small numlcr of our foreign population were engaged on our public works. Most of them were farmers and engaged in other employments. Besides, those engaged on our public works were not the men to be improperly influenced by contractors or others in giviujr their votes. Mr. Gregg opposed the amendmcut and was sorry it was introduced. He was sorrv to hear the gentleman from Allen (Mr. Hamilton.) on yesterday give color to the idea that the wliigs were opposed to the foreign population. H-j denied, that, as u party, they entertained any such opinions. His coure had been heretofore taken ou this floor. Mr. Hamilton sii l.it was due to himself to make an explanation. He had not. on yesterday, charged the whole of the whig party with entertaining sentiments inimical to foreicncis. He was sorry then, as he was on another occasion, to see opposition coming from members of th-i partv with which he had always acted. He was in favor of the amendment of the gentleman from Laporte (Mr. Nile.) He believed that the foreign pop. ulation would be well conteht with such a provision. Mr. Clark of Tippecanoe was not opposed to foreigners, but he was bound, from other considerations iVoin consideration of duty to observe the Constitution of the l" it. d States to oppose the section. He thought the section was insidious in its character. He would not be deterred from voting his sentiments for fear of injurinn the w!ii'r partv. Mr. Edmov.stox" said , if the amendment of the gentleman from Hamilton (Mr. Cole) prevails, the foreigner would be compelled t- have a five ?ear s residence. Immediately on his landing in our State, lie would be taxed, be compelled to work on our roa ls; b:ii when he approached the ballot-box he would le forced back. The very fact of his leaving the land of his birth and coming heic for an asylum .Vom oppression was enough for hi in, and the guards thrown around the elective franchise in the section, as reported, were sufficient to guard from all abuse. Mr. Cat' Mb acker t!iug'it the verv way to make good citizens out of our foreign population, and to attach them to our institutions, was at once t give them equal privileges. He was tor the section as originally roported. He was in favor of permitting the foreigner, alter six month's residence, the privilege of mirching up, bv the side of our nntive born citizens, and giving his vote. Mr. HoVey answered the Constitutional argument of the srentleman from Tippecan.ie (Mr. Clark.) He thought liberal laws should 1" passed to encourage emigration. Indiana was capable of sustaining ten times her present po'-ulation. There was no Constitutional barrier. Mr. Tatlor aid. it hid always been the pride of his life to eomo to the rescue of the downf mdden and oppressed of other lands. Ho had ever been willing to give them equal privileges. The lew engaged on our railroads and other public works was no argument with him. He feared no abuses on their part. Mr. Pettit was for the section just as it had leen reported. There were no Constitutional objections that were valid. The object of naturalization was, that the citizen, thus naturalized, might claim the protection of the government, should he afterwards visit foreign countries. The right of suffrage, in the Stat-s. had nothing to do with it. He had lecn the member of a committee in Congress that had fully investigated the question He considered this wholesom" policy should be adopted to cuc-jurage population. The cinijrrants from forcinn countries aro now composed of persons of more substance, so far as property is concerned, than fornierlv. If we deny them the rights in this section they will seek a residence in other Slates to the West of more concrcnial I'tws. Mr R i t f 1 1 k y then moved the previous question, which h-mr sustaiir-d. was first pot on the adoption of Mr. Nils amendment and decided in the negative. Thr n was then taken on Mr. Cole's amend ment, striking ojt the section and inserting the Substitute, and decided in the negative, ayes 14, noes 90. The -piestion was then taken on engrossing the section for a third reading and decided in the affirmative, ayes 87. noes 15. Mr Kelso declined vr.t'ng. Mr. Kilgobe said, when hi? name was called, I vote no, beeanse I love m f country better than I love myself. The section providing, that all elections not otherwise provided for, shall be ly ballot, was read a second time : when Mr. Farow moved to amend, so that the ballots shall be numbered, to nrce with the number opposite the names of voters; not adopted. Mr. Moore moved to strike out "ballot and insert "viva voce. n Laid on the table. The section was then ordered to be engrossed. In the afternoon, the sections providing that elector shall be free from arrest on days of election, except for treason, felony, or breach of the peace; and giving the Legislature the power to exclude from electing, or being elected, any person convicted of any infamous crime, were read a second time and ordered to be engrossed. Mr. Wolie moved to amend, by inserting a seetion that ail contested elections for Senators and Representatives; and for all county and township officers shall be sent heck to the people for their decision, in a mtnn'r to be prescribed by law; laid on the table, ayes 67, noes 17. Mr. McClelland offeied a section that the Legislature may have the power to extend tbe right o! suffrage to persons other than those included in the Constitution, should a law giving this privilege receive a majority of tbe votes of the pcoplo ; laid on the table. Mr. Mm a v offered a section, that no person shall be debarred from votins, on account of having lost or mislaid a certificate of qualification as a voter; not adopted. The section providinz that every person shall be disQualified from holding olfice who has offered any bribe, rhrant or reward to procure an election, was read a second time and or-!ere.i t be engrossed. Mr. Ho i. sun moved to amend, so that any person elected to anv iri ( profit. afca! be ineligible as. ajajf other lucrative office during his continuance in office, excop justices of tbe peace, town, township, or municipal offices. Mr. Pettiy moved to lay on the table; not adopted, ayes 40. eoes 61. Mr. Worn: moved to amend, so as to except Postmasters whose offices are not worth $100 per annum laid en tbe table, ayes 50, noes 49. Mr. McClellakd moved to strike nut the officers excepted justice of tbe pence he.; laid on tbe table, ayes 62, noes 35. The question was then taken on adopting; tbe section offered oj Mr. Holmao, pnd decide.! in Use negative, area 42, noes 58. The section providing that no person shall hold more than eee lucrative office, lac., was read a second time; Mr Haisolt moved to amend, by adding a proviso, tnat oeiBtie casting less than one thousand votes may elet ft me person Clerk. Recorder and Auditor, or any ft of said offices; which wa, adopted, ayes 66, noes I

The section, as amended, was ordered to be engrossed. The Convention then adjourned. Wednesday, December 25, 1850 The Convention was opened by prayer, by the Rev. Mr. Farrow a Delegate. The Journal of yesterday was read ; when On motion, the Convention adjourned. Thursday, December 26, 1850 The Convention was opened bv prayer, by the Rev. Mr. Cressy, in the Masonic Hall. The President laid before the Convention a communication from Mr. Brougb, the President of the Madison and Indianapolis Railroad Company, tendering to tbe members of the Convention a free passage over the road, on Wednesday next, or such tune thereafter, as will suit their convenience ; referred to a select committee of rive. The section defining the qualifications of voters, was read a third time. Mr. Walfole said he would be compelled to vote against the section, because it confined voters to their townships. He was in favor of the balance of the section. The section then passed by a vote of ayes 88, noes 11. Several other sections ordered to be engrossed on Tuesday , were read a third time and passed. The section providing that no person shall hold more than one lucrative office, except clerks, recorders, and county auditors, was read a third time. Mr. Wolfe moved to re-commit, with instructions also to except post masters, whose compensation does not exceed $90. Mr. Kelso moved to indefinitely postpone. Mr. Dunn of Jefferson supported the instructions. It was frequently very difficult to obtain competent persons to become post masters in sparsely settled neighborhoods, where the compensation was merelv nominal. To render them ineligible to office, would further increase the difficulty. Mr. Kelso could see no reason for the exception of post masters over justices of the peace, &c. Mr. Wolke nid, post masters could perform their duties by deputy. Mr. Owen supported the instructions. Uvcause the office of post master was frequently acccpt;d for the public accommodation. Mr. Bascom moved to amend the instructions, so that counties casting under seven hundred votes may elect the same erson clerk, auditor, and recorder, instead of under one thousand ; not adopted. The question was then taken on re-committing with Mr. Wolfe's instructions, and decided in the affirmative, aye 54. noes -19. Mr. Kelso moved to further instruct the committee by striking out '"not exceedin-r one thousand voters." and inserting ''five hundred,'' in reference to the elestion of clcik, recorder, and auditor. Mr Harbolt said, this amendment would destroy the object of the friends of the provision as adopted. The people were not compelcd to bestow the three offices on any one person ; but, in some counties, it might be a benefit to the people to have the privilege to confer two or three of the offices named, in this manner. It would save expense. Mr. Mather moved to amend the instructions bystriking out ''one thousand voters," and insert 'notexccedinir one thousand white male inhabitants over twenty-one years of aire." On motion, the instructions of Messrs. Kelso and Mather were laid on the table. With a view of re-arranging the Hall and putting down a carpet. The Convention then adjourned. In the afternoon, the section providing that no works of public improvement shall be made without a vote nf the people, See., was read a second time and laid on the table. The section providing tliat the executive shail be vested in a Govern r, who shall hold his office for years. A Lieutenant Governor for the same period, was read a second tune; when Mr. Pratiif.r proposed to till the hi. ink with two years. Mr. Cookerly projiosed four vears. The question was taken on four years and decided in the affirmative, ayes, 52, noes 41 . Mr. F.d.monsto.n mosed tn strike out so much as reI ' M to Lieuteuant Governor not adytc-d. ayes 27, noes 0 Mr. Smith of Ripley Mnr aal ' amend, so that the Governor and Lieutenant Governor shall not l e eligible more than four years in any term of eight years. Mr. Morrison of .Marion thought that this was too (mnl an innovation. It was taking away, in Iiis opinion, one of the greatest incentives to a faithful discharge of duty. He thought they should at least be jtcrniittcd la serve a second termMr. Smith of Ripley had been opposed to four years as the Governor's term of service. His plan was to hae made the term two years, and eligible four years i The section, as reported, makes the Gocnior eligible for life, if the people think proper to elect him. The question was taken on Mr. Smith's amendment, and decided in the affirmative, ayes 69, soes 35. The section was then ordeied to be engrossed. The section making it necessary to be a citizen of rhe Cnited States five years, ami a resident of Indiana for five next preceeding an election and 30 years of ace to be eligible for Governor or Lieutenant Governor, was ordered to lc engrossed. The section providing that the Governor shall be ineligible to any other office during the term for which he is elected, was read a second time, and amended so as to embrace the Lieutenant Governor. Mr. Walpole moved to amend, so as to require the Governor to take an oath, that, during the time for which lie i elected, he will not accept any other office. Mr. Walpole contended, that the Constitution of the United States defines the qualifications of United States Bane tors and cotild not le interfered with. His amendment would accomplish that object. Mr. Dobson took the same view of the subject. No man should hold more than one office at a lime, and should be compelled to serve out the time for which he is elected. Mr. Kelso opposed the amendment. The Governor should not le tramelled with any such restrictions. Mr. Ra eiden supported the auiendmci.t. on the ground that similar restrictions had een laid upon nembers of the Legislature. Mr. walpole's amendmend was not adopted. The section was then ordered tobe engrossed. The se tion defining the manner of electing the Govrnor and Lieutenant Governor the person haiug the highest number of votes to Ik- Governor oi Lieutenant Governor. See. was read a second lime Mr. Foster moved to amend, so tlmt incase of a tie, the Governor or Lieutenant Governor shall be chosen bv a joint viva Voce vote of the two Houses; which was adopted and the section ordered to be engrossed. The sections defining the manner of making returns, that the Governor shall lie commander-in-chief of the military a id naval forces. &.-.; shall transact all necessary business with ullicers of covcrnment ; take care that the laws shall be faithfully executed i convene the Gener;r Assembly on extraordinary occasions ; give information to the Legislature by messages; convene the General Assembly at another place, should the seat of government lceomc dangerous from disease, &e. ; shall issue writs of election to fill vacancies, Sic. were severally read and ordered to be engrossed. The soction eiving the Governor power to grant reprieves, commutations and pardons, except treason and cases of impeachment, upon conditions provided bylaw, &c., to be communicated to the Legislature witn his reasons theiefor; have power to remit tines and forfeitures, to be also reported to the Legislature, at the next vvion, was read a second time, amended and referred to a select committee of five. The section providing that the Governor shall receive a compensation which shall neither he increase! nor diminished, etc., was read a second time ; i.en Mr. Chapman moved to amend, so tin ' the compensation of the Governor shall not exceed 2,5f0 per annum . nor lc less than $1 ,500 ; not adopted . The section was then ordered to ! engrossed. Mr. Mauuire moved to amend, so that the Lientcn ant Governor shall serve for residue of term of Governor, or until his return, when absent from the State, Stc. ; which was adopted. The sections defining the duties of Lieutenant Governor, etc . were read. Mr. McClelland moved to strike out "pro tern.'' and insert "for the time being ;" adopted, ayes 73, noes 34, and the sections ordered to be engrossed. The section providing that the Secretary of State may convene the Senate, in case the Lieutenant Governor dies or removes from the State while in discharge of the dnty of Governor, for the purpose of appointing a President of the Senate, was read, amended and ordered to le engrossed. The section giving the Governor power to fill vacancies was recommitted. Adjourned.
Friday, December 27, 1850. Tbe Convention was opened by prayer by the Rov. Mr. Farrow, a Delegate. Mr. Dcnn of Perry nreeen ted a petition from the citizens of the counties of Spencer and Perry, in relation to the formation of new, out of old counties; which was read and referred. Mr. Sail LET, from the committee onr the Legislative Department, reported back the section striking out the provision which prohibits the division of counties for Repreaeatativ.. purposes ; which was concurred in, and the section passed. Mr. Bb.akt. from the committee on education, reported against the exiiediency of a provision in the Constitution, allowing other than the English language to be taught in onr common schools; concurred id Air Dobson, from the committee on Mr Bri-igh
proposition, in view of the fmo already occupied by the Convention in its deliberations, respectfully decline the invitation of the Railroad Company to visit Madison j but return tbe thanks of the Convention to the company for their kind offer . concurred in. Mr. Dcnn of Perrv, from the committee to which was referred a resolutien on the subject of a geological survey of the State, made an interesting report on that subject, taking the ground that it would bring capital, to a considerable amount, into the State, and 'bus repayall expenditures, as well as aid in creating a sinking fund to pay off our public debt, accompanied by a section making it the duty of the General Assembly to provide for a thorough geolonical survey of the State in five years; read and passed to a second reading. The section providing that the Governor and Lieutenant Governor shall hohl their offices for four years, was read a second time ; when Mr. Kilgore moved to recommit with instructions to strike out "four years" and insert "two years," and to be eligible only four years out of six years. Mr. Borden supported the amendment. He thought it strange that gentlemen would advocate four years, when many of the States elect annually. Mr. Cooker ly thought it equally strange that Senators should be elected for four years, and the friends of that ii.easure advocate two years for the Governor. The question was taken on the amendment, and decided in the negative, ayes 53, noes 55. The section then passed, nyes 63, noes 4 I. Thf- other sections ordered to Ik? engrossed on yesterday, -.ere read a third time; when, by common consent, the words ''temporary President" were inserted instead of '"President lor the time being," as amended on yesterday. The sections then passed by a vote of aves 98. noes 9.
The section, in relation to the veto power of the Governor was again taken up on its second reading. Mr. Raripen moved to amend, so that a bill shall become a law. if not returned in five days after presented to the Governor for his signature, even should an adjournment of the Legislature take place during the said five davs-. Mr. R ariden contended, that, at the close of a session of the Legislature, bills are frequently placed in the hands of the Governor, and it inereased the vet power too much to enable him to prevent their passage by withholding his signature. Mr. BirnLE entered into an argument at length, on the subject of the veto power, and in favor of the amendment. Mr. Pettit replied to what he called the Whig speech of ti e gentleman from Cass. He contended that the veto power had never been exercised against the lilterties of the citizen. It had almost always been exercised in relation to tbe finances of the country, and he challenged gentlemen to show, from the vetoes of Washington down, that any injury had accrued to the nation. Even the veto of the gentleman's own John Tyler of the bill for the charter of a United States Bank was pronounced a blessing. So far as our own Statowasconeerned.Gov. Noble had vetoed a number of bills; Gov. Wallace had vetoed some, and Governors Whitcomh nnd Wright had vetoed several others: and in the whole, the fact was that the power should have been exercised more frequently. The responsibility would rest with the Legislature, if they thrust to many bills upon the Governor at the close of the session. Mr. Ow en took issue w ith the gentlemen from Wayne and Cass ami all men who opposed the veto power. It was a conservative, and not a kingly power. It emanated, in the firsflplaee, from a republican government. It was in the hct days of Republican Ro:ue, that it had its first existence. In a despotic governs. cnt the power is vested in a monarch ; but herein a representative of the people. It was a wholesome check ou hasty legislation. In England the veto power is a nullitv. The people will not tolerate it. Tut here where the power is lodged in the representative of the people, it can be exen ised with the greatest safety. The Queen of England was indeed but are: ennnv. The theory in England was, that the legislative power should be aeestrieted. Here it was, that it should he restricted. Wehavo been engaged, ns a Convention, in restricting that power a tl.ing unknown in the history of England. Conventions are not called in that country for that purpose. So far ns the amendment was concerned, he would vote for a provision that no new bill should be introduced during the last three days of the session. He could not abolish a power that had worked so well. Mr. Rabiden said, it w as the pocket veto he wns opposed to. He would not dispose the question whether the vclo power was conservative or not. As lefore remarked, it was the pocket veto he was opposed to. He wished to compel the Executive to show his hnnd;not to be able to suppress legislation for two years. He was not very hoütil ' or unfriendly to the veto power in its proper exercise. Before the question was taken, the Convention adjourned. Li the nfternoon Mr. Smith at Sc it inocd to amend the section so ns t require a vot- of three fifths of the members to pass a law over t!ie veto of the Governor, insiead of a majority of all the members elected. He had seen no evils growing out of the veto power. Mr. Stevenson moved to lay the amendment of Mr. Rariden and Mr. Smith of Scott on the table. A division ur the question being called for. the ques tion was taken on laying Mr. Smith's amendment on the table and decided in the nflirmati ve. Mr. Rahiden's amendment w as then laid on the table, ayes 71 . noes 2S. Mr. Kilcohe moved to amend the section, so that it shall be the duty of the Governor to sign bills and return the same immediately to the House from wnonCe they originated abrogating the veto power ; laid on the table, on motion of Mr. Bascom, ayes 100, noes 11. The section was then ordered t be engrossed. The section in relation to resolutions the same as to bills was ordered to be engrossed ; also, a section in relation to n seal of the State. Mr. Smiley moved to amend by inserting a section that contested elections for Governor and Lieutenant Governor shall be determined by the two Houses, under provisions of law; which was adopted ami the section ordered to be engrossed. Mr. Morrison of Marion reported back the section in relulion to filling vacancies by the Governor, ice; which was ordered to be engrosse 1 ; lloo The section was engrossed providing that all commissions shall be in the name und by the authoiity of the State of Indiana. The sec-ion providing that all electi nis shall be held on the first Tuesday in October biennially was read a first tune; when Mr. Prather moved to amend by striking out "biennially" ami insciting "annually." Mr. Kelso moved to amend, so as to insert the ' second Tuesday in October" instead of the first Tuesday ;" which amendment was adopted. Quite an unimated discussion here spuing up, in which it was contended, that since it was determined not to turn out the county officers, their terms would Ie expiring every year. That it would be inconvenient to elect ollicers v long beforehand. It was contended, on the other hand, that the sessions of the Legislature being biennial and the terms of all officers being made to suit the biennial elections, it would lie unnecessary to have atuiual elections. That sjccial elections could be had whenever there was ad occasion for them. Mr. Kelso moved to amend the amendment by striking out 'annually." Mr. Taylor saul, he had lived twenty vears in an adjoining State, where there were biennial' elections, and he had seen no difficulty. General were always preferable to special elections. Annual elections would create confusion. Mr. Newman moved to strike out and insert that general elections shall take place on the first Monday in September. The previous question was called and sustained, and was first put on Mr. Kelso's amendment, striking out "annually" and adopted. Mr. Prather's amendment, as amended, was adopted ; Mr. Newman's amendment was not adopted, and tbe section was then ordered to be engrossed providing that all general elections shall be held on the second Tuesday in October. The article reported from the military committee was now taken up. Mr. DrxN of Jefferson moved to strike out all of the article except that the militia of the State shall consist of all free and able bodied male persons, negroes excepted, between the ages of 18 and 45. to be organized under provisions of law. Mr. March moved to amend, so that persons conscientiously opposed to bearing aims shall not be embraced ; which wus adopted. Mr. Milroy said, that this article provided for a system somewhat novel ; but he thought it would work well. It compelled no man to perform military duty agaiist his consent; but provided for volunteer corps. M -. Farrow proceeded to point out objections to the syst- m as reported. He thought the details should be left io the Legislature. Mr. Spann said, a considerable portion of the old Constitution had leen retained. He was sorry that an amendment had been adopted exempting cerLain perns. They were exempted by the article in time of peace. They were not much accouat in time of war; hut he thought every citizen should lie placed on an equality. The provision in relation to volunteer companies should be adopted. B -lore tbe question was taken on Mr. Dunn's amendment, The Convention adjourned. Census of rhiladelphla.

For the Indiana Slate Sentinel. Ma. Editor Sir: Having said in a letter to the editor of the Reveille, (a good Union whig print) that that branch of the whig party had no organ here to defend it, or its measures; and that the Journal was bal
ancing between the wbigs and abolitionists, and that it was said to fee! unkind to the Union resolutions which I ' offered in the Convention, and for the expression of those ' sentiments, (which I know to be the common sentiment ; of all wbigs where the Journal and its editor is known) '. its masked knight has taken great offence, and declares j that he hob's me responsible lor an offensive editorial in the Reveille, and i suppose, for all other editorials ' which may not countenance and flatter his twaddle This I thought very unjust, as I had neither written, or knew who did write, the offensive article; yet I confess ' it docs express my private sentiments, and the sentiments of ail other wliigs, free from abolition tendencies. It is true, I care very little about the responsibility to which j tin- .lo.it nal ha subjected me, nor does he. 1 suppose, ante altout the charge of balancing, so long as he can retain his subscription list of fire thousand paying subscribers whigs and abolitionists. It is certain that there was nothing in my letter, or in the editorial, to jnstify such a deluge of vituperation as showed itself in the columns of the Journal, directed at me; but I have lived over it. and I really think, considerinir the verv gross terms he allows himself to employ in w riting and reading men out of the abolition section of the whig parI ty. (ot which, 1 confess, he is the high prn.st) he should, at least, have published my explanatory letter to him. denying all knowledge of the ollünsive editorial, without gnroling aaAmaiiiaif fca meaning, so that w hatever was between us, (if anything) might have been fully under- ! stood by bis readers. But he has not thought it his duty to treat such a culprit with that justice, but drivels about ,uv ba.l grammar and bad orthography, as though that had anything to do w ith his cunning and dodging from t'.,e support, as well as from an opposition to a i great measure of government. I tell him that whatever is good sense, and free from ambiguity, is good enough grammar for me, and in that language, I proposed to make an issue with him upon his jersotial truth anil veracity as a man and as an editor. 11 admits that he and his friends were opposed to my resolutions as I offered them ; but he says thev were amended by Mr. Owen, so as to do away with their objectionable features. Indeed he says they were wholly changed from beginning to end, and made palatable to him and his friends. I so that they could support them. Now, I say to him, that when he made that statement in the Journal, he staled that which he knew to be false, and I tendered that isMte upon his veracity; he declines it, if I understand him, ii'. ti the ground that my charge is not good grammar, and some of my words not spelled according to the most approved standard. I offered to try the issue which I made, upon his veracitv, in the simplest ponaikto wnv; that was, Jhy him publishing my rcsolu- ' lions anil MY. Owen's amendment, in juxtaposition, that nil might sec whether the winde substance was changed or not, as he had declared. I said in my letter to the Reveille, that the resolutions which I hail offered, had passed without snbtitntial or Itencficial amendment. He gives that statement a flat contradiction, and says tliev were wholly changed and made more acceptable to I. im and his friends o lhal they could sustain them. I called upon him to point out the change which made ' them more acceptable, and he answers bv charging mc with murdering the King's Enplish. and suggests his j fears that I might murder him. and de lines my request. I Now the editor of the Journal knows that when Mr. Owen suggested his amendment. I rose in my place and j offered to accept it for my own. if that would harmonize ' the vote cd' the Convention; and Mr. Owen stated upon offering his amendment, that it made no substantial change, except that his avoided endorsing the details of some of the compromise measures, nor did his amendment make any other substantial change. I ngain repeat that the editor of the Jonrnn.1 afTirms ! that it did, nod that in consequence of that change, he nnd his friends were enabled consistently to sustain them. I dared him to the trial before the country, by publishing the resolutions side bv side, this he has declined. Now. that I mnv vindicate myself and oint out tbe falsehood, I request that you will give this a place in the Sentinel, and a'so publish side by side the resolutions referred to. nnd Mr. Owen's amendment, that the world may judge, and as a consideration. I w ill promise vou tlmt I will waste no more nmmunition upon this true di-seendant of Simei, who ought to hear his name, because he w ars all his versatile qualities. Verv respect fully .
