The convention to form a constitution
net at Newport on Tuesd ty, and was or
ganized by the election of James Fenner
as president, Henry Y. Cranston, vice pres.
ideni,and Thos. A, Jenckes and Walter
W. Updike, as secretaiies.
A petition against the return of the del
egates from New Shoreham was presen , -
ted. on the ground of illegal proceedings
at the election. It was referred to a ape
cial committee.
The bill of rights was Then taken up for
discussion, as pal t of the constitution. - Mr.
Ennis, from Newport, proposed. as an a
mendment that the third article of the
'people's constitution' he adopted as the
first of the new one [declaring :he princi
ple that the people have a right to change
their government as they choose] and in
debate on this opposition the whole of the

Double DO - tilled Rascality.
One of the boldest, most artfully contri

tionsto rob, through the agency of the law,
has recent!y been defeated in Philadelphia.
A man named Von Vliet was convi'ted
there, at the last term of the General Ses
sions, of stealing 470 sovereigns from a
Mrs. Hoffineister. who swore that he came
to her hinise to buy an old watch—was
left alone for a few minutes in a room
where the sovereigns were in a bureau,
and that immediately after his departure
she discovered that they were gone also.
Her evidence -was confirmed by that of one
Moore, who said he was a clerk to Von
Vliet at ,the time, and swore that on the
day mentioned by Mrs: EL Von Vliet
showed him a bag .containing 470 save
reigns. On this and some corroborating
evidences Von Vliet was convicted. But
it now turns out that the story of the rob
bery was trumped up by Moore and the
woman, to obtain the sovereigns which
actually belonged to Von Vliet, he having
brought them.from England. The discov
ery was made by a woman calling herself
the wife of Moore, who was privy to the
plot, Moore and Mrs. Hnffmeister have

An old gentleman (who attended more to

Vie Tariff.
' It is the settled, pulley of our govern
ment to provide for its wants by a Tariff.
of duties. It is incredible that the doc—
trines of Free Tiade can , win extensive
public favor, unless some other mode of
raising revenue can be devised. None
other, as a substitute, has ever been hin
ted at, except a system of direct taxation.
Were that plan suggested iu the public
councils. the whole south would rise up
against it. They could not nor would not
agree to tax the immense amount of slave
property. But if the south were ready
for this scheme, no 'statesman who values
his position or reputation would urge it.
It is Manifest, thin, that we must have a
Tariff for revenue,—a Tariff as permanent
as the public necessities are lasting. To
what extent duties should reach, must be
measured by our wants.
Connected with this subject, is that of
protection to our home industry. And if
our wants for revenue are lasting, and re
quire permanent means for relief, and
this relief is to be sought by a perma
nent tariff which shall discriminate in fa
vor of home Productions—there will be
found in such a system what the labor and
industry of the country demand. With
less than this the public mind will not be
satisfied—ought not to be content. Such
a system is in keeping with the national
habits—the national expectations—with
all our necessities, public and private, and
must be perpetuated, if public sentiment
is to rule, or past experiettce be any guide
for public men.
The doctrines of Free Trade are beautiful
abstractions to us. To us, we say, they
are beautiful abstractions, for they are not
abstractions to all nations. Switzerland
is the-most prosperous county in Europe,
and she has not a single custom house•—
But we are hot Switzerland—nor can we
deduce from her past history, her geo
graphical position, nor from her ptesent
example. any confident course of policy•
We commend the course of Messrs'
Buchanan and Sturgeon, on the subject of
the Tariff act. They did the best they
could, and acted wisely. It would be ah
stud to suppose that the bill of duties ig
not susceptible of improvement. But we
protest against any departure fron: its es—
sential featwel,and against agitating its re—
peal. We concur entirely with the views
expressed by the' New York State Con—
vention, (which recently met to nominate
a Governor, &c.) in their seventh'resolu-
Resolved, Th we are the friends or a perms'
nertt tariff, suffrrient to meet the wants of the gov
ernment, ecluo nit:ally administered, and discrim
inating in its character, so as to afford protection
to the mechanical and manufacturing, without.
burdening the agricultural and planting interests;
and while we disapprove of some of the provisions
of the present tariff, as being so high as to be pro
hibitory, and thus preventing revenue, we approve
of the vote of our Senator, Silas Wright, jr., he be
ing compelled to vote for this till or none, and his
negative vote would have continued the horizontal
tiriff,taxiog equally the necessaries of the pour
and the linurt , s of the rich, and have hilt the
trovernment wuhnut adequate means to pay its
debt., and the people of this great nation would
have been disgraced in the eyes of the civilized
wor Id:
We have no doubt that the above reso
lotion expresses substantially the views of
the Democratic party, on that important
subject. New York and Pennsylvania
will have no discord between them re
specting the Tariff. Our friends in the
South will finally concur in such expedient
measures of political policy, as will at once
secure the pubic interests, and harmon
ize the views and feelings of the democrat
ic party—a party, which, with the control
of the government soon to be found in their
hands, will not be wanting in disposition to
administer it wisely. Indeed, whatever
party may rule, they will not be able to de
part from the duty and of safety, marked
out in the resolution which we have copi
ed. The Tariff question should be dismis
sed from the field of party contest; arid as
the President very properly sets forth in
his veto message, should be placed on such
grounds of general approval as to be last
ing. We are persuaded that it can pro
mote no views of political aggrandizement
now to raise the cry of repeal and agitation.
And if it would, we are free to declare that
we should join in no such clamor, believ
ing it would be ruinous to many interests,
public and private, which it is our duty to
promote.

to avoid coming out openly against Craig,
is compelled to advise him to decline. A

Maine Election,
Below will be fouud returns from 186
towns, in which Mr. Fai►field's majority
over the whim candidate is 8.138, and HIS
GAIN SINCE LAS]' YFAR TWO
THOUSAND NINE HUNDRED AND
TWENTY-TWO! Fairfield's majority
over Kent, at the last election was 10,565;
his majority over Robinson, this year, will
be about FIFTEEN THOUSAND! : So
far as heard from, nineteen Democratic
Senators have been elected, and one whig.
Indeed it is doubtful whether the whigs
have elected their Senators in Kennebec
county. Their majority in that county,
last year, was 1,385, and in the towns
heard from they have lost 1,062 votes.

not the same facilities of escaping from justice as
forgers, counterfeiters and swindlers, who always
keep an abundance of contingent friends in their
purses Lilly and his friends cannot cross the
Atlantic like gentlemen, nor secrete themselves
here from the lyr.x eyes of our police. But there
is one thing wanting. Police officers will not
work for nothing, any more than other men.—
McCloskey was arrested indeed, but it was by
accident. Let a suitable reward he off:red for
the apprehension of these men, and our word for
it, they will be ferreted nut. Justice and decency
require that they should be made an example of;
and when this is done, we may hope that prize
fighting will not be again attempted in this Tart
of the country. Let a reward be offered• and a
liberal one, and'at once.

from China, which comes down to the 27th of
May, is wholly unimportant, Several a f the trans
ports, with reinforcements, had arrived at Hong
Kong, the remainder were expected ti reach in a
few days afterwards, wlnin Sir Henry Pottinger
would proceed to the northward, and, as it is sup
posed, advalace at once to Pekin. It was curr-i t
ly reported that the Emperor, alarim-d at the p r , .
paralions whieh the English were making to at
tack him, had given his subjects a paternal exhor
tation to resist ; the barbarians to the utmost, and
retired into Tartary. Ills departure from Pelri o ~
bef ire we reach it, though highly probable, will
be unfortunate. If lie should have removed liim- •
self and his famil • ber•ond the great wall, with
whom are we to conclude a treaty? The new
settlement at Hong Kong was progressing rapidly.
The intelligence of the Emperor's flight is derived ,
from the French missionaries at Pekin, who are
supposed to have access to some gr od sources of
nformation.
FLIGHT OF THE EMPEROR.—We liarn on g od
authority that the Emperor, apprehending a visit
from the English to Pekin, has retired into Tarta
ry, and has, I:)4fite his deo,rture, ruagn inimoosLy
issued proclamations to his people, enjoining them
to oefervi themselves to the very nonos.. We
wonder what the ticople will say to he iorsaken
by him whose duty it protect them—such
pusillanimity deserves that the people should
throw off their aThgiance to a prince who seems
so hide deserVing of it

SPAIN.
The !tiadrid advises are to the 25th ult., at
which date there are vague rumors of a dissolu.
Linn of the Cortes, and of a war between Spain and
Portugal, becau4e the troops of former•country
were approaching the Portuguese frontiers. It is
scarcely r , -quisite to add, that these reports merits
no attention.
The Paris papers of the Ist inst., are barren of
news. The leading topic of is the de
cree of the King of the Belgians, extending to ti.e
German wines and silks the same advantages as
those lately conceded in the French treaty. The
opposition prints attack the Cabinet for its want
orability and foresight in not preventing Belgium
from thus fityoring Germany. It is remarked that
the French treaty c iinc. int f.ree on the 12.11,
and the ordinance of King Leonel I OFI the 28th
ult. The right of Belgium is not denied, but her
ingratitude Is strongly urged. The Courier Fran•
cais recommends the formation of a Custom
house union with 13t:vurn, and thinks that the
German wipes bnd silks-can stand no competititm
with the French, a position, however, which the
Presse does not admit.
The Chambers were prorogued on the 301 h ult.,
till the 9ih 'January next. On the preceding day
the debate on the Regency L. w began and ended
in the Chamber ofTters. M. M. de Brez., Ville
main, Gabrine, and the Prince do la Musk-tea
spoke, when the law was put to the vote, and
passed by 163 votes against It.
CornmarpriorLs, Aug- 17 —The Grand Vir:er,
in spite °fall.prognostications to the contrary,
continues to maintain himself in his place;—all
his official props or partisans having been remo
ved it excites much surprise that he should not—
es a usual, and necessary consequences of this
process-411 himself. Mnstapha Bey, who through
his interest had farmed the customs of Constanti
nople, was last week made to relinquish them to
their `ci-devant' director, Fahir .13ey. The tact
was, that after the expulsion of his relation, Izzet
Bey, from the Mabein, lie lost
,his credit with the
Sarafs, who refused to be responsible for him any
longer. The Grand V:zier; however, seems sub
sequantly to have made his peace with Riza Pa
sha: he is ;known at the Porte to have bad n. noc•
tornal interview with him last week, and, judging
from the result their reconciliation appears to have
been complete. -
Prince I Stephenalti (Vognrides) having been
charged by the Porte with the negotiation of the
treaty with Greece, is occupied in a daily exchange
of notes with M Mar ~ ocorciato. f lt la to-be feared
this diploauttic tug between two Greeks. equally
renowneA for their skill-as negotiators, will not be
very aptiffilly settled. • '
