THE TRI-WEEKLY TIMES AND SENTINEL.
VOLUME I]
Cutest intelligence.
LATER FROM EUROPE.
ARRIVAL OF T H E STEA ME B
k AMERICA.
New York, Aug. 17.
Wie steamship America arrived at Halifax on the
10tn inst. The Arabia arrived out on Saturday.
The sales of Cotton for the week amounted to 4 4,000
bales, of which speculators took 4,000 and exporters
7,0 t 0 bales. The quotations are as follows:
Fair Orleans, 6 7-Bd.
Middling Orleans, 6d.
Fair Uplands, 6 5-Bd.
Middling Uplands, 5 7-Bd.
The demand was moderate, and the Fair and Mid
dling qualities had declined l-Bd.
Consols are quoted at 97 1-8,
The Turkish question is still unsettled, and doubts
are increasing a9 to its final adjustment.
Political Intelligence.
The Eastern question, it is believed, has been nearly
decided one way or the other. The prospect for peace
is thought to be less favorable. The decision of the
Czar would not be known, however, until the 12th
prox. If he accepts, his troops will have to be with
drawn from the disputed provinces.
The conferees at Vienna will draw up a treaty, for
the protection of Turkey in all time to come. If the
Czar refuses the ultimatum, or evades a reply, then the
allied fleets will pass the Dardanelles, and active opera
tions for the maintenance of Turk.sh rights will be com
menced.
The conduct of the Russian Generals and the Prin
cipalities indicates an intention to retain permanent
possession. Russia shows no signs of retraction.
It is stated that Austria will demand reparation from
the United States, for the Costa affair, and that Turkey
will be required to immediately procure his extradition.
It is said that the Czar advised Austria to give the Uni
ted States no pretence for interfering in the affairs of
Europe.
Later from the Fishing Gfrounds.
New York, Aug. 17.
Dates from Halifax have been received to the 13th
inst. The American steamship Princeton had been
visited by Lord Ellesmere and other English officers,
all of whom had been hospitably entertained. The
English vessels were actively engaged in looking out
for violations of the treaty stipulations, but no captures
had been made.
The Gardiner Case.
W ASHINGTON, Aug. 17.
The Gardiner Case has been finally postponed, on
account of absence of testimony, until December.
The Mobile Tribune says : We may state, on the
best authority, that the type of the disease is entirely
unlike that which is now prevailing in New Orleans.
There it was marked at first, and is now, by great mor
tality—one perhaps out of six or ten cases only being
within the reach of curative means. Here not one in ten
but does not yield to them. We know of five of our
most respectable physicians who have, perhaps, in the
aggregate, twenty cases, and there is no danger in any
of them of a fatal termination. One of these gentle
men, who has had much experience in treating the dis
ease, assures us that he has never seen it developed in
a form so mild and manageable.
It may be concluded from this that the disease, if it
assume the epidemic form, will be chsracterised by lt,-
tle mortality.
Yellow Fever in Mobile.
Mobile, Aug. 16.
A number of new cases of yellow fever have occur
red here to-day, and several have resulted fatally. A great
many people are leaving the city for the w atering places in
consequence.
Office Board of Health.
Mobile, Aug. 17.
Three cases of yellow fever have been reported to
the Board of health as having occurred during the twenty
four houis ending 6 o’clock, p. m., this day. By order of
the Board. Geo. A. Ketchum, Sec’y.
Yellow Fever in New Orleans.
New Orleans, Aug. 17.
The epidemic appears to continue unabated. The whole |
number of deaths for the twenty-four hours ending 6 j
o’clock this morning was 219, of which 191 were from yel- !
low fever.
LATER PROM THE PLAINS.
Indian Battle.
Louisville, August 13.
A person just in from Fort Laramie, reports a grand
demonstration and light among tne Indians. Several j
tribes were engaged, the principal of which were the
Pawnees and Sioux, the latter ‘suffering a defeat, with j
considerable loss of life.
Some returned Californians give an account ot the
battle, which is said, by the persons referred to, to be
an exaggeration. They state the number of Indians
engaged was about 8000, the Sioux on one side being
aided by the Cheyenees, forming a force Os 5000 ; and
the Pawnees being joined by the Sacs, the lowas and
the Potawatomies, numbering together almost 3000
strong. The fight lasted one whole day, and the num
ber of killed on both sides is stated at 500 or 600.
The battle took place almost fifty miles from Fort
Kearney.
Yellow Fevar at Quarantine at New York.
The New York Evening Post of Monday says : We
esteem it our duty to publish a report which has reached us,
and in which we place entire confidence, that several cases
of yellow fever-ten or twelve was the number stated-are
now under treatment at the Quarantine at Staten Island,
about seven miles from the city. They were brought the.e
by a vessel from New Orleans.
“THE UNION OF THE STATES AND THE SOVEREIGNTY OF THE STATES.”
[From the Boston Daily Advertiser, Aug. 3.]
The New Constitution of Massachusetts-~Adjournment
of the Convention.
On the day of the adjournment of the Con
vention, the 11th inst., it was in session, with the
exception of a recess at one o’clock P. M, and
another at seven, of an hour each, from nine
o’clock on Monday morning to two on Tues
! day. During that period the final act of the
Convention, embracing a summary of its labors
from the commencement, was reported for the
first time, forming a compact printed pamphlet
of forty pages. It was read over, chapter by
chapter, discussed in many of its parts, and a
large number of questions were taken on va
i rious propositions, some by yeas and nays, and
! others bv count. No material alterations, how
ever, were made from the form of the original
report eiccept in mere matters of detail. All
the measures of the majority were carried by a
large superiority of numbers.
In this document, all the amendments pre
viously agreed on, in resolutions discussed in
committee of the whole, and twice read and
adopted by the Convention, are incorporated
methodically with the existing constitution, em
bracing all the provisions of that instrument, and
its successive amendments not superseded, and
excluding all parts which are so superseded,
either by 7 previous amendments, or by the reso
-1 lutions of the present Convention.
|
The parts of the present constitution thus re
tained, together with the most importantamend
-1 ments now adopted, consisting of fourteen dis
! tinct chapters, and occupying thirty-eight prin
: ted pages, are submitted to the people for their
ratification or rejection, in a single act. A va
riety ofless important amendments now propos
ed, to the number of seven, are submitted in dis
tinct propositions, for acceptance or rejection
by the people, by distinct votes. If accepted,
they will be hereafter incorporated in the con
stitution under the heads specified ; and if re
jected, they will for the most part hardly be
missed, and some of them, if missed, we con
ceive not to be regretted.
Among the present amendments thus incor
porated in the proposition No. 1, are—
-Ist. One which entirely changes the organi
zation and manner ofelection of the Senate,
making the members eligible in forty single dis
tricts, by a plurality of votes, instead ot being
elected in districts composed of entire counties,
by a majority of votes, wherever that can be at
tained, but in case of failure by joint ballot of
the two branches, from the two candidates for
each seat on the popular ballot. This amend
ment was concurred in by almost general con
sent.
2. It is provided that the council shall be
elected by the people, one member in each of
eight districts, each council district to he com
posed of “five contiguous senatorial districts.
The members of the council are to be styled, if
the orthography of the committee who reported
the draft of the act adopted is to be followed,
not counsellors, as heretofore, but council
lors.”
3. Anew organization of the House of Re
presentatives, which is to consist of four hun
dred and seven members, elected annually, and
four hundred and thirty-oneelected on the years
of valuation of estates. These representatives
are assigned by an apportionment entirely new,
which we shall explain hereafter.
4. There are some important alterations, in
regard to the majority, and plurality of votes to
be required in elections, of a somewhat complex
character.
5 The principal State officers, viz. :—Secre
tary of State, Treasurer, Auditor, and Attorney
General, are to be chosen by the people.
6th An important change is proposed in the
tenure ot judicial appointments—the term of of
fice of Judges of the Supreme, Judicial, and
other courts, being limited to ten years, instead
of being during good behavior.
7th. Judges of Probate, Registers of Probate
and of Deeds, Sheriffs, District Attornies and
Trial Justices, are to be chosen triennially by
the people.
Bth. The right of suffrage is opened to every
male citizen, twenty one years of age and
upwards, except paupers and persons under
guardianship, who has been a resident in the
commonwealth one year, and in the town in
which he may claim a right to vote six months
—the condition of payment oi a State or county
tax being dispensed with.
9th. Provision is made for taking the sense
of the people on the question of the expediency
of a convention fora new revision ot the consti
tution, in 1873, and in every twentieth year
thereafter. It is also made the duty ol the Leg
islature to submit to the people the question ot
a convention for revising the constitution when
ever they shall be requested so to do by votes
of the people in towns and cities containing not
less than a third part of the qualified voters.
These are the principal new provisions em
braced in proposition No. 1. The seven other
propositions, adopted in separate resolves by the
convention, relating to writ of habeas corpus ;
making jurors judges of the law in criminal ca
ses ; giving to State creditors the right to re
cover their claims by suit abolishing imprison
ment for debt, except in cases of fraud ; pro
hibiting the appropriation of school monies to
anv religious sect, “for the maintenance exclu
sively of its own schools;” prohibiting the crea
tion “of corporations bv special acts, when un
necessary ; and requiring the adoption, in all
banks to be hereafter established, of the New
York system.
