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.
