STANLEY '•ND WINE.-01 - iter Oldscbonl, the
Washington correspondent 'of the U. S. Gazette,
speaks of the movements of these tt bullies, " since
their collision mar the race course, as follows:
" The affairs between SNIPE and STANLEY, is for
the' pre s ent, p'stpnned. Mr. Wise after being
three day in enstody before Judge Dunlap. was
last evening held in a recognizance of 83Q00, to
keep the ptaee for one year within the District of
Colombia, and not to leave:it for the purpose of
Szliting a duel, (which is made fe!ory by the act
of Congress.)
Mr Stanley left the city on Tuesday .evening
last, for the purpos&of avoiding the Marshal who
woe in pormit, andel one time, was within half a
minute of takirg him. *He proceeded to Blau
burg that night, where he slept, and arrived in
Baltimore the next morning but he remained there
nut more than! half an hour. it had been previ.
tousle, (nn .Monday,) agreed between Mr. Wise
.and ti friend of Mr. Stanley, That the tam should
be in Baltimore on Wednesday, with friends, for
the purpnge ortitecueszng the matters of personal
differenee'bet Wenn them, 'with a view to an ami
cable or-other adjustment of theca The arrest
of Mr. Wise prevented this arrangement being
carried into.uffect, and on his being bound over,
the same friend of Mr. Stanley came forward and
voluntarily released Mr. Wise from the engage
ment. He acted in this as he had before upon
his own..responsibility, and tinder a sense of
what was due from one gentleman to another.
eirctimstaneed as Mr. Wise is. Mt Stanley mill
therefore t retorti to this city, probahly to.morrnw,
and the matter will be left in sialti quo till after
the Vhjaurnment of Congress. Whether it can
be arliustod in the meantime. without a resort to
deadly weapons remains to he seen; far my own
part I hope it may be. At all events we most
give the act of Congresa, and the civil authority
who enforced it, the credit of Waving , for the prei-
ent, et least, prevented a duel, in which, in all ho.
man probability, 'one party,St not both, would
Lade fallen."

.also re*igned:- s if the officious interference of pre
eons from other States would cease, we have no
doubt the dirteUlties in this State would scion be
settled to the satisfaction of all parties. There is
unquestionably a.majurity of the People of the
Mato in favor of forming 'a Constitution and ex

enjoyed by the citizens of the other free States—

"The Secretary of the United States Treasure,
in his late communication toCongress—says : 'it
is believed that the trade and business of thc coun
try as well domestic as foreign, have reached or •
nearly et, their lowest point of depression.'"
This is important news, and we eineerely hope
that it may prove correct. We have,' however,
but little hope that the dines will improve for the
better until the passsae oi 13 Tariff Bill for the pro
tection of American labor and industry. Unless
s Tariff Bill* passed the times will unquestion
able continue to grow worse until property: labor,
and every thing else conies down to a specie basis

to every sense of the Word.

As the .origin of the difficulties in this State
are not generally known, we copy the following
from tho. New Yotl Tribune, which ,gives a cor
rect history of the pipceedings . of the two parties
from the commencement to the present time:
The Rhode Island Question.'
We have receive) several requests to give a his
tory of the present trouldee in Rhode Island freim
the outset. To do this fully and intelligibly would
require a page of our paper, which we cannot now
spare. Had we not been at Washington when it
appeared, we should have tried hard to crowd into
our columns Mr.. Doirs' Message, which gives a
pretty fully and accurate though one-sided account
of the whole difficulty. But the simplest state
ment of the case is this : the original constitution
of Rhode Island was a Charter from the British
Crown in 1663—a meat liberal and excellent one
for the time, but rather out of date now. This
Charter allowed the Colony, as a body politic, to
admit Freemen to its political privileges and du
ties—a power which, three years thereafter, was
transferred to the towns. In 1724 a definite and
uniform property qualification of One Hundred
Potindre value of Real Estate was established. In
1762 the qualification was reduced to Forty
Pounds, or $134, of which it has ever since re.
inained. The oldest son of a freeholder is enti
tled to vote without:pesnssing property.
It is easily perceived that this qualification, to
say nothing of its intrinsic demerit,is an extreme
ly imperfect and arbitrary one. Under it, men
who pay two-thirds of the Taxes and perform most
of the Military duty required, may be excluded
from voting. Nay, it is possible that a single in
dividual, by buying up all the Land to the State,
may become the only' person entitled to exercise
Political power withiri its borders! Of course, this
does not answer fur the Nineteenth Century.
du long as the State was essentially Agricultu- •
ral, however, the practical operation of this system
was not very 'oppressive. Almost every adult
male citizen of intelligence and character was a
Freeholder, or the son of one, who could easily
set him off a little patrimony to render him one.
The Freehold qualification gave stability to the
Government, created an. attachment to the sell,
tended to multiply land-owiters and -distribute
widely the proprietorship of the soil. Probably
down to MO Rhode Island was more essentially
Republican, Socially and Politically, than many
States enjoying a more liberal Constitution.
But thit Charter still remained; and reinsins,
the fundamental law; and, though many MOdifi:
cations of its provisions have been Made from time
to time by acts of the,Legislature, the Suffrage
Provi,ion remained unchanged, and every drift to
amend it was steadily resisted by e decided ma
jority. Different parties have from time to time
borne sway—Federal, Democratic; Adams, Jack
son ; Whig, Van Boren—but they have all alike
resisted every effort to liberalize Suffrage. The
Ratio of Representation, too, which was just and
equal when first adopted, has become very far
from this in the lapse of time; so that Providence
has now fewer Representatives than Newport,
with one-fourth its population; and while 30,000
People in the former have but four members, the
same number in the Agricultural portions of the
State choose forty Members, or more than a ma
jority of the House. This, too, has become a se
rious theoretical grievance, though practically the
mijorily of the voters has seldom failed to secure
• - ajority of the Legislature—quite as seldom, we
think, as in any other State.
Te transition from an Agricultural to a Man
• • wring community has developed and oggrava•
ted the theoretical defects of the Rhode Island
frame of Government. Thousands of her best and
most intelligent citizens arenow engaged in Man-
ufaeturing and Mechanical; avocations, which do
not lead them to become landholders,, and thus
leave them without the Right of Suffrage, While it
collects them in a newly-created cities or villages,
which have comparatively no weight in the State
Councils. The same amount of Property, of In
telligence, or number of persons, has not half the
Political Power in the Manufacturing as in the
agricultural portions of the State. ' ( And it may
he remarked, that the Agricultural portion of the
State, though, inveterately hostile to Freo Suffrage
and Equal Representation, styles itself o Demo
cratic.!" and gives Loco-Foco majorities, while the
Free Suffrage portion of the State is Whig. But
all old distinctioiaa mellow merged and lost in the
excitement of the new question.) ,
The first effrrt fur 'a more liberal Suffrage was
made in
,1811, when e bill-to extend the Right to
all %It h? kid Taxes or performed Military , duty
passed the Senate, but was lost in the House. In
18190829, 1832,-end 1834, irregular and par
tial efforts were made by the non-freeholders for a
Reform, arid in the last a-Suffrage Party was for
med, but as only Freeholders vote, it made but
little headway. In t 824, a legal Convention fra
med a Constitution ; but a proposition to extend
the Right of Suffrage received only three votes.—
The Constitution thus formed was voted dovin.
In 1834, another legal Convention assembled, but
adjourned without submitting a Constitution.

who creel] have heartily untied with them, it•
seems to us that the-whole matter would have been
amicably and 'satisfactorily adjusted.- They were
iodated, - However,-to-pursuea 'very different
course. 'They held a 'Mass Meeting or volunteer
-Convention at Providence on. the 17th of April,
1841; another at Newport on the Bth of. July
- thereafter, where they issued 'a call for a Delegate
Convention to meet in Providence in October
(beta° the legally called Convention, which had
already been surucnoned.to meet there in Novem
ber) and form a People's COnstitution.
Well: Elections for each of. these Conventions
Were held in the seversl .Cities end Towns; for
thit former by the regular Town Officers; for the
latter by whoever choose to hold them. Delegates
were chosen, each Convention assembled and for
med a Constitution—the suffrage one immedi
ately;, the legal one not till February or March.
Each was on the whole a pretty good Constitu
tion, but the 'Suffrage" -rather the more liberal of
course, but the, Landholders or legal convention
admitted every native citizen who had resided two
years in the State to all Political Rights without
any Property or Tax qualification whatever. (Our
impression is that Adopted citizens Were required
to possess some property, but Mr. Dort says noth
ing of it and we have not now time to trace back
our files.) Mr. Doer objects, however, that this
Constitution did not wholly, though it did partly,
remedy the existing inequalities in rho Appor
tionment of Representatives.
Tbe ..Suffrage Party" Constitution was sub
mitted to the People (including all whom it ad
mitted to-she Right of Suffrage) for ratification;'
and as no body but its advocates deemed it of any
legal validity; it had no opposing votes. But, as
it was deemed necessary to procure for it the votes
of a majority of all those in whom it declared the
Political power to justly reside, its friends resorted
to the novel expedient, after holding the Polls
three days open for votes, to receive proxies (votes
sent in by persons who could not or "rid not
attend the polls) for three days longer ; and in
cluding these, they obtained in all 13,944 votes ;
whereupon, computing the whole number of male
adult c itizens at 23,142, they declared their Con
stitution adopted and established as the paramount
law of the State, by a majority of 4,746.
The 'old line' was less fortunate. In the first
place, the mass (riot all) of the Suffrage party voted
against the legally formed Constitution because
they were determined to retain the validity of
their own ; then a portion of the Free-holders al
so voted against it because they were averse to so
liberal (if any) extension of Suffrage, especially
in view of the stand taken by the Suffrage men ;
others would not vote at all. The result was the
defeat of this Constitution by a vote of 8,669 to
8,013, of 677 majority. Thus the Government
party were thrown back upon the' old Cheater, in
defianc4 of their wish and their effort to concede a
more liberal suffrage ; while the sSuffraie' party
contended that their Constitution had been legal; .
ly adopted and-was now the paramount law of
the State.
