Pali:tore—The' following narrative, relating a fine, not to say a sublime scene, In the Couvontion.tharframed the Constitution of the United Staten, was originally derived froth Gen.•Jonalhnn Dayton, of New Jersey. He nap the 'Junior member' that moved the 're -cmisideretion,' mentioned below. The account is full of interest and instruction at the present time, when the spirit of discord and selfishness is so Hr . ° in our. national . couheils. Would that a copy of it could be sent every member of our National Legislature, and that it could be read , by every Christian and patriet•throughoUt the fand. I was, (said 'Gan. Dayton.) n.delegate from Now Jersey in the General COnvention which assembled - in - Philadelphia; - fie - the - purpose — of digesting a Constitution for- the United States, and I believe I was tho youngest 'tmber of that body. The great and good Washington was then, oar President, and Dr. Franklin, a -mong-other.-gmat-monovas-a-delegate-from Pennsylvania. A disposition was aeon disoor eied in come members to display themselves in oraterical_flounalme—but the good sense and discretion of the majority put down all'eueb at tempts. We had convened to deliberate upon', and if possible effect, a great national object— to search toripolitical, wisdom arid truth ; these we maont - t pursue witlusimplicity, and to a-. void every thing whichwould .have a tendency to divert our attention, or perplex our scheme. A great ,Yari - Oty, of = n!ojects were proposed— all Fe - pi - Miceli in their general outline, but dif iering.idtheir 'details. It was therefore deter- Mined That certain elementary principles should at first be . established, in each branch of the la. tended Constitution,—anA, aftErwards the-do - - tails should be debated - and filled up. Diem o:au little oi no difficulty in determi ning upon the elementary principles—such as' for instance that the government should bo repulecan reprementative governinent—that it should be divided Into three branches, i. o. Leg islative, Executive,-Judicial, &c. But when the organization Of the Legislative branch 'coiner under consideration, it was easy to be nuclei's; cd that the Eastern and Southern States had distinct interests, which it was difficiat o.roc oncile,—and that the larger Statv wore die -posed to form a constitution, in vrlt.h the smal ler States would be more apporidageo_and eat-. ollites to the larger ones. On'tko.firat of these eubjecte much animated and atirrinFdebate had takin place, when the ratio of representa tion- In - the - lower hntrof of emigrant . - wou - beforrr us—the Southern .States elalming !or them. solves the whole number of .black population . ; while the Eastern' States were for Cenfining the nlectiYa_franchiso_to_freeknon_oolyovitliout_re _ - spoqt to color. - A's the different parties adhered pertlmMions ly to their' different positions, it wan feared that-this ..would •prove an insurmountable obsta cle ; but os the members wore already goner ally satisfied that no constitution-eau k: be form ed, which would meet the 'views and outman) the interests of ouch individual Stale, i.t was ev ident that it must be a matter of compromise and mutual - coneension. Under these impres sions, and with those views, it was agreed at length that each State should be entitled to one delegate in the House of representatives for every 30,000 of its inhabitants—in which num ber should be included three fifths of the whule nil nber of their slaves. ,Vat the cicalla ofthepoiase of Represen tativea were disposed of, a more knotty point presented Raiff in the orgenizatieM of the Sen ate. The larger Slates (=tended that the earns ratio as to States should be epnanion to both branches of the Legielature, or, in other words, 4 , that each State should be entitled to a ropfe; sentation in the Senate, (whatever might be the number fixed on,) in proportion to its pop ulation as in the House of • Representatives.— 'The smaller States on the other hand contend ed that the House of Representatives might' be Considered as the guardian'of the liberties of the people, and therefore ought to have a 'just proportion to their numbers ;. but thkt the /Sen ate represented the sovereignly of the States, and that as each State; whether great or eaten was eqUally an independent and sovereign State it ought in this branch of the Legislature, to have equal Weight and authority. Wittiout thin, they said, there wouldbe no security for- their equal rights, and they would, by such a distrt , but ion of power, be merged' and lost fti the lar ger States..— Tide reasoning, however plain rind powerful, had btit little influence on the minds of the del egatealromthe larger Stator; and as they form ed a. large majority of- the Convention, th o questidn, after passing ihrotigh thO forme ado. hate, was decided 'that 'each Slate sliould be represented in the Senate in prOportion to its . population.-- When iho Convention had adjourned over to the next day, the 'delegates of the four smallest States, viz: Rhode Island, Connecticut, New Jersey and Delaware, eon:ens:3lo consult what course was to ha pursued in the important mi• siiiat which we had arrived. After serious in vestigation, it'vras solemnly determined to MA fur a reconsideration the next morning;, end if it was not granted—or if when granted, that offensive feature of the constitution eould, i net be expunged. and the smaller States put upon an equal footing with the largest, ivo would ac cede from the Convention ; and returning to our constituents, inlorm Ahem - that- no • compact cuuld be-formed with tholarge States; but one . .
