It maw alwayi be an intoreonieg etnploymeet, whin free people, with whom the "Once of Goy. tent is a abject of every day and practical importance, to contepplate the labors of their . !ow Citliens of the different States, to their fre quentefforts to amend and perfect the fundamen -T roles of their Government. No sight um be move .astemishing to the people of the Old World, while none is the eubjeet of more just pride with 012114tilef, than the frequent assembling in this copnlil of delegates herb from the 'people, charg ed enthuse important trust of altering, amending, or radically changing, the very basis of our institu tions and laws, and Mai giving direction, life, and vigor to the most important earthly interest of man. For this purpose there are not assembled renown ed statesmen, or learned doctors, or an ancient ao bility, or the representatives of crowned heads, but the farmer, the artisan, the merchant, the lawyer, and persons from every profession and employ ment of life—the learned and the comparatively unlettered, the aged and the young, the ploughman and the lodge—the troe,real ,honest representatives of the feelings, desires, and awns of , the whole people, of the aggregate of the community they re. present They meet woh no pomp or circumstance of State, with no military array, and ender no out ward or inward fears or alarms, sad w i t h cer tain knowledge that their decisions will not pro duce any disruptions of. society, or bloodshed and civil war, but that if the people whom they repro meat ere satisfied with the result of their labors, they will ratify them, Wool they will reject them, and continue existing fundamental laws. This an suably hoeing met under these simple republican eiresomtances—sublime from their very simplicity —and the members having taken an oath to dis- Muslim their duty faithfully, and having humbly in voked the Divine blessing through the agency of n priesthood, as manly and unpretending, as the in newtons they are about to reform and re-establish, they address themselves, to their labors with honest sincerity of heart, and the result usunlly is that they' produce Belch master pieces of workmanship in the art of human government, that 'they will ever stand as monuments of the wisdom and iptelligerice tE the age. The Convention which lately met in Michigan 1 , has concluded its labors, and presented the instru ment it bas formed, for the acceptance r of the peo ple. It is, mainly; and excellent constitution, gintrdlng with a jealous eye the rightsand liberties of thopeople, but possessing, however, a few ex crements which sane future Convention may re move. It was adopted with but eleven votes in opposition. We avail ourselves of a synopsis we find in the Buffalo Commercial Advertises, to give om readers a condensed view of this Interesting doctimeat.• • The first article defineel the boundary of th. State. The second permanently lomtee the sent of go eminent at Leasing. The third relates to a division of the powers of government The fourth defines the powers, dee., of the Leg. illative Department. The Senate is to consist of a: member. Senators shall be elected for two years and by single districts. Such districts shall be num bered from one to thirty two inclusive, each of which shall choose one senator. No county shall be divided in the formation of Senate Districts, except such county shall be equitably entitled to two or more Senators_ The Coniention, it will be seen, very wisely adopted the single district sys tem. The Rouse of Representatives is to be cons posed of not less than 64 nor more than 100 mem hers—to he chosen for two years, by single Dis. trims. Each Representative District to comma, as nearly as may be, as equal number of white inhabitants, and civilised persons of Ind tan descent, sot members of any tribe, and shall consist of con. renient and contiguous territory. The general provialane—in relation to the pow. ere and dunes of the Legislature are lath as have been aerially engrafted into.constitutions re. ;wady adopted Into several of the States. It can not grant divorcee—nor audit mallow any private arca or account. No money ran be appropriated or drawn frees the tremor, for the benefit of any religious Coot or society, theological or religions seminary, nor 'shall property belonging to the State be appmprist. -d for any inch porpesse. The Legielaturo may authorise a trial by a Jury of a less so mbei than twelve s and shall not pass lay law authorising the grant of license to sell trfiant *pints or Intoxicating liqunrs. The fifth article relates to the Executive De .artment. It provides for • Governor and Lint. Governor, with the usual powers to hold their offices tier two years. The With article organizes the Judlciati. The judicial power is to be vested in one supreme mon, is circuit courts, in probate courts, end in mauves of the peace. Mollie:pal ccurta ot and criminal jurisdiction may be ertablishrd by the legislature is eities.• The elective prior p'e Is recogolzed and established in regard to Ibr Jo 'dm:ray as well as to the other mikers. Thie prin ciple will Kola doubtless become the prevailing one in all the States. '.b e Legislature may also provide by law Tor the e ott at one or more persons is each organized who may be vested with judicial powers not s eceding chore of • judge of the circuit court at chambers.— roere is to be not exceeding four jusxree of the peace to each organized township. They shall be elected by the elector' of the township. and Mall bold their offices for four years, and until heir wocceasora are elected and qualified. Article seven relates to Elections. It provides hat I. all elections, every white male ciLlsea, - ,very white male inhabitant residing in the State RI the Roth day of June,lB3s; army white male inhabitant residing In this State on me Cunt day o tannery, 1550, who has declared his intention to become • eitixeu oldie United States, purenent to ,he low, thereof, six months precedirg an elec.. -ma, or who has resided in the State two years and air month., and declared his intention as efiiresald, and every civilised male inhabitant of Indian descent, a native of the Untied Stites, and not a member of any tribe, .6.11 be an elect. or, and entitled to vote; but no such eitiseuor in habitants shan be an elector or entitled to vote at ' tiny election, anima be shell be above the ego of twenty one Imam, tad hu resided in the State three months, and;ln the township or ward in which he offers to vote, ten days next preceding suck election. Here is ■ new restore, that of In. dim suffrage. We believe that the 'native." are not snowed to vote to soy other State. The Con vention also adopted a resolution submitting the question of negro suffrage to the people, as was done In New York. The Eighth Article provides for State sincere. Teens ls to he elected at each biennial election a Secretary of State,. a Superintendent of Public (taltruction. • State Treasurer, • Commissioner of the Lind office, an Auditor General, and an At torney General, for the term of two year,. They ' shall keep their offiee at the seat of government, and olio➢ perform sorb duties as may be prescrib ed by law. Article Nine fixes the salaries of the officers as follows: Govemor.sl,ool9-C i rcuit ledges, 51,509 --rremiurer, 91,000—Auditor General, 81,000— Superintendent of Pablio luetroction, 51,000 SectufFY of Stole, 0000—Attorney General 6600 --Commlsionetof Laud ,Office, SSOO.

Competent men cahoot be got to discharge highly responaible du' ties at =Oh befingtalaries. It is asking too great • It above ■ niggardly spirit to give men OR w►em we bestow such high pests, inch miner able salaries. Article Ten relates to connties—dnit organiaa tion—orwen and their powers—Article Eleven 'to urirrahlos, and Article Twelve to impeach. The Thirteenth Article is devoted to education —providing Cor a general system, Ste. It declares also that the Legislature shall encourage the pro motion of Intellectual, scientific, and argricaltural Improvement; and shall, so soon as practicable, provide for the establiatunent of an egticoltunil school.
