Our Telegraphic dispatch last evening electri¬

vote decides that the bill cannot pass in its present.hape. but does not in our judtrnient absolutelypreclude the passage ol some bill of the sort at
this Session. Tlie chances, however, are that tins
.m a Palo Alto, to be followed1 by a Regai n de la
Palma. The stiffening blow was given by Hon.John M. Clayton on a motion bunglingly reportedby the Telegraph, but which was snbstantiafollows:
''Resolved, That this bill be now committed toihe Committee on Finance with instrui tions so toamend it that the doty on no raw material import¬ed shall be higher than that charged on the fabricmannfactnred therefrom and nls,-, so as to provideadditional Revenue lor the support ot the Government"

(The Lenste was lull, except tlie place ol Ml HaVwood, resigned.)How could an American Senator vote against
such a proposition ' Messrs Dix and Dickinson!do you mean to say. in behali ol the Free Laborers of New York thut an American maker ol Huts,
or Cloths, or Boots or Books or any thing else,ought to pay n higher duty on the raw material hemust buy trorn abroad than is charged on the ira
ported fabric winch competes w ith Ins ,n!i> r it is

abovo recorded I Working Men ol the UnitedStates mark the votes ol your Senators ou the
above proposition \.We shall have lull particulars from our corres¬
pondent for our Third Edition
The Convention.
Although we seldom have occasion to add a word
to our reporter's admirable daguerreotypes ol theConvention's deliberations and doings, we cannot
refrain from congratulating tlie sincere and heart}advocates ol Constitutional Reform on the progressrecently made and the important and salutarychanges alreudy secured. SlNOLR S.inaii- Iii-
tricts have been decreed by n vote of 79 to 31,and SiNcti Assembly Distrii rs bj about ten to
one. More accurately the Convention bus l<-
tided thnt the Helmte .-hull consist ol thirty two
Members (the old number) each chosen bienniallyfrom a separate District, with one hundred hh<I
twenty-eight Assemblymen, (also the present num
ber) each chosen likewise from a separate Districtnuuually. in the formation ol Senate Districtstio Comity is to bo divided but this, (which must
necessarily be.) und in forming Assembly Districts no township is to be divided, though Wardsof this City must be. ns we shall have more Mem¬
bers than Wards. The Convention will mark out
the Senate Districts, und will declare the numberof Assembly men to which each County shall beentitled, but the apportionment within the Comity is
to be left to the Board ol Supervisors thereof, who
are to meet tor that purpose m, the lirst Tuesdayof January next We presume the apportionmenttheu made is to stinnl until a new census nIiuII betaken, though that is not stipulated
All this is ns we think it should be except therefusal to increase the number of our Legislators,hi our judgment, a Helmte of ut least 48 und an
Assembly of 144 Members would have been farpreferable Each constituency would then havebeen more numerous than whs provided for by our
present Constitution when that whs adopted, Our
Senators will each represent about 100,000 peopleor 90,000 voters I efore the next Census is taken .The Senator from the upper District of this Citywill probably have 150,000 to 900,000 constituentsIt does seem to',us that the vitality ol Representstion is smothered by such hh arrangement Ruteven tins in a very great improvement on our present system, under which Senators have 3 to 400,ouo und Representatives 20 000 to 350 000 constitu-cnts as accident may determine. It is hard thatCounties like Queens, Broome, Cortland Seneca,Cr cunt Wyoming, Clinton. Ac. with 25,000 t"
over tio.ooo inhabitants euch, should have but oneMember of Assembly, while Counties with halftheir population have us much weicht in that im¬portant body. A House of 144 Members wouldhave prevented or modified tins injustice However, we ure wry glad to take the proposed s\ stem
as it is. and Hre grateful that the Convention hasdone so well.
Shortening the Senatorial term to two years isvery well. and the assumption that it ought not to
be so shortened because experience is valuable inlegislation, is most mistaken This is an argumentfor the People, not tor the Convention If a man
evinces fitness for legislation, let him he recloctedten times if he will serve so lone li unlit, thesooner the People have a chance to dismiss him thebetter. We approve of lone service though not
¦loug terms, and confidently expect that Single I>istricts will enable the voters to pa) more regardthan hitherto to the persons! qualifications andclaims ol those whom they tire asked to vote lor.We regret that the Senate is t>> be chosen
annually We could wish to have the Governor,Lieutenant Ate Senate mid Assembly chosen ou thesameyears with Members of Congress like themto serve two years and on the alternate years wewould prefer to have an election solely tor Hurro
gates and such Judicial Officers (and we trust theyare not few) aa are to b« elected t>y the PeopleVy« would thus lay tlie foundation for a real separation of Judicial from Legislative and Executivepower, such as We have hitherto talked ol but never
realised..Here is a section reported by the Committee

grating company which lost its way in the CascadeMountains last autumn, resulting in the deaths ofa large portion oftheir number, are fully confirmed.How parents with human feeling can expose tenderinfants to the penis and woes of that lone, dr.-arvmarch when to do so they are obliged to leave or

tolerable road has been made, with resting-places,depots of provisions and herds of cattle to be tra¬
