The friends of the new Constitution aro making a noble and gallant struggle in favor of its ratification iu the Hiug-iidden city of Philadelphia. This lias especially been tho case since tho strange and nn kxked for decision of the Supreme Court, delivered last Friday, in hich it was de cided that the action of the convention in appointing Jive Commissioners to revise tho Registry lists, appoint tho Judges and in spectors, and in all other respects to con duct and supervise the election, was an ex ercise of jover not warranted by tho Act of the Legislature calling the convention, and therefore -oid. - The effect of this de cision will be that the election iu that city will be held by the present Ring election officers, and it has thoroughly impressed the decent men of both parties with a full senre of the danger. Tho friends of re form in Philadelphia may therefore be said to be emphatically aroused, and larire and enthusiastic meetings are being held to advance the cause of the people against the schemes of corrupt politician. Tbee meetings have been addressed by able and prominent men of both political parties, among whom may be mentioned ex-Governor Curtin, John XV. Forney, Col. A. K. McClure, John M. BroomalL Republican?, and ex-Chief Justice Thompson, Geo. YV. Biddle, Richard Vaux, and Win. A. Sti keo, Democrats the last named gentleman being well known in this county. The new Constitution will encounter its greatest danger from the fraudulent appli ances of the Philadelphia Ring. Its mas ters and its tools will resort to all that is base and fraudulent to defeat it, and the knowledgo of this fact alone should inspire its friends in other parts of the State to battle manfully from now until next Tues day in its defence. We have strong hopes that even in Philadelphia the virtue aud intelligence of the people will achieve a decided victory next Tuesday in the noble eause of reform. ted to them and to be necessary to the per- . formauce of their woric. unoui, ai mis i time, entering upon the discussion of any I controverted question, and having neither J the right nor. the disposition to suireiuler, any position taken by the convention, ! the Committee yet earnestly recommend j prompt acquiescence in the decree of the J eourt. To avoid all misapprehension, we deem it proper to state explicitly that the , decree affects only the 'question of officers by whom the election in Philadelphia will be conducted. The "commissioners named by the convention in the desire to secure in that city an entirely just and fair election. have been superseded. The election will ! therefore be held iu Philadelphia, 'as in all t other parts of the State, by the ordinary I election officers, on Tuesday the 16th day j of December inst. the day fixed by the convention. The committee respect fully'and earnest ly call attention to the fact that the active opposition developed to the work of tho convention is mainly from those whose business it is to trade in politics and to pro fit bv corruption,. It is evidently impracti cable in a short address to reply to all the misicpiesentations which lirteveited parties . have made to affect ad Tersely the vote ukhi the proposed constitution. But we do dis , tinctly affirm that the new constitution docs i not impose or restore any tax upon real es- tare or other species of property; nor re ! quire the legislature to impose or restore any tax whatever. It requires that all taxes shall be uniform upon the same class of subjects, and leaves the classification to 1 the unlimited discretion of tho legislature, 1 simply prohibiting all special exemptions upon property of the same class, and all favoritism and inequality in taxation just aiid wholesome provisions in the interest of the people, which deterve a place iu every fundamental law. The expenses of irovernmen't will be largely reduced. 1 ho dollars. While under would not make any statement,, as I have mentioned before, being so advised.' he said by his counsel.

This was in December of the same year iu which Hopkins obtained his patent. For many years after this date tho patent office was but a clerkship in the State Department. Hon. John M.

' We trust, says the Pittsburgh Hispntch, that the late Chief Justice feels better now. This matter has evidently been troubling him a long time.

On next Tuesday the special election will take place on the adoption or rejection of the new Constitution. It will be a day long to be remembered in tho history of our State, for the reason that the result of the election then to be held will bo fraught , with immeasurable evil, or incalculable ' good. The Constitution of 1790 was the supreme law of the State for forty-eight j years, and the present, or a me u Jed Cou- 1 stitution, has been in operation since 1S33. ; That our present Constitution needs re form and amendment in many important particulars, is a fact that is not questioned by any intelligent aiau of either political , party. The people now have tho work of the Constitutional Convention before them for their mini aud unbiassed judgment and, for their determination at the ballot-box. That tho new instrument is perfect in all its parts is not claimed by its most ar dent and enthusiastic friends, because per fection is not an attribute either of the human intellect or of human hands. But that it is a vast improvement in most of its details upon the present organic law of the State, is confidently claimed. We trust it has been carefully read and deliberately pondered on. The question soon to be determined is, will the people of the State scizo the opportunity now pre sented to inaugurate purity in their State government and honesty iu legislation? That a powerful and well organized op position will be made against tho adoption of the Constitution is manifest, but that it will succeed against the vigorous and de termined efforts of its friends, we do not for one moment believe. There is not a corrupt politician in the State of either party who will not move heaven and earth to defeat it. Will tho honest and upright men of both parties permit this base and venal element in the politics of the State to triumph iu their infamous designs ajainst the rights of houcst voters aud tax-payers? What will bo the position of the friends of reform in Cambria county next Tues day on this great and all-important ques tion? We know and feel that the ipU of this county are overwhelmingly in favor of the new Constitution, but will they go to tin polls and there proclaim by their ballots the faith that is in them If for any reason they should remain indifferent . if they should sleep supiuely upon their backs while the enemy is at their doors, aud if they will peimit themselves, to be sur prised and captured, then let the conse quences bo justly charged to their own criminal folly and neglect. Democrats and Republicans of Cambria ! rememWr that on next Tuesday,, our great and honored Stato expects that every true Pennsylva nia n will do Lis du7 fearlessly, faithfully and fj'ly. terests of the people; and to them wo earn estly appeal for the just vindication of their right.. The opportunity is favorable to strengthen the securities of property aud of liberty, and the contest is becoming daily more active and earnest between those who would preserve our institutions in their purity aud those who, for personal and selfish reasons, seek to prevent the re forms which the people demand.

One of the reasons given by the "Ring'' for opposing the new Constitution of this State, says tho Philadelphia Age, is be cause it "destroys the secrecy of the bal lot, thereby depriving the citizen of his greatest privilege." The irony of this sug gestion w ill be fully appreciated wheu it is remembered that tho Registry law was passed by the Ring" for the express pur pose of "depriving the citizen of his great esst privilege," and that its operations haTe been eminently successful iu this city. Of what use is a secret or any other kind of a ballot to a man, w hen it can be rcndei-ed worthless by the officers of an election ? The "Ring" Legislature of this t State enacted the Registry. law for the ex press purpose of defiaudiug tho people of their right t the polls. They refused to repeal ihat law. And now the Supreme Court of tho State lays down the doctrine that tho people cannot rebuko the legis lature, if that body object!", and the "King" pretend to be friends of a pure ballot. All t lie objections to the Constitution are mere "Ring"' devices to cover up tho real point of op4ositioii to tho new instrument, that it insures a fair election in this city and i the certain death of the "Ring."

The job was ex posed, aud the general assembly of Penn sylvania adopted a resolution instructing the attorney general of tho State to insti tute CRIMINAL PROCEEDINGS AGAINST PATTER SOS and others associated with him in the at tempted bribery. All the other main facts stated in the nn, too, arc true. Besides tho matters disclosed there, I know, fur thermoie, what has never before been pub lished in the press, that John J.
