DONIPHAN, Chairman, ‘The Labors of the Constitutional Convention. rom the Chicago Times—Organ of Senator Douglas. } ¢ Convention assembled in Kansat to frame a State constitution is in session, and has framed a large portion of an instrument. The committee upon the subject of slavery has reported a provision, which has been adopted by the Convention though it has yet to be voted aw as forming part of the whole. As there rooms to be no doubt of this provision becom ing a part of the constitution, and as there is a majority of the Convention in favor of submitting the constitution to the peopie for ratification of rejection, we think there can be Dut little doubt aa to the fate of «uch constitution before the people. The provision, as it is reported, recognises slavery as existing logally’and in fact in Kansas; it pro- vides that the Legislature shall not emancipate ° slaves now thera, or which may hereafter be brought 9 the Territory, without compensation to the owners fare trif_ing matters compared with the next provision, which prohibits the Legislature from passing any law for the prevention of the introduction of slaves by emigranta to the Territory This amounts to a perpetual invitation and protection to. the introduction of slavery into Kansas. It is virtually an establishment of slavery a* an institution of the State, not to be disturbed by any legislative act. We rogard such a ‘ts fatal to the constitution. The people of Kiatean have recently, ina mort eeaphatic manner, decided that they are in favor of the exclusion of slavery from Kan sae. It is idle for the Convention to disregard that decision ; they cannot hope that the people of Kansas will accept from such a convention a constitation making slavery a perpetual institution over which the people through the Legislature can never exercise any control. We say the fate of that cons Utution ts already sealed; the people of Kansas are in favor—in the proportion of three to one—of a free State. they want a constitution making Kansas a free State, and they will vote down any constitution which does uot clear ly establish their expressed will. Regarding the constitution as prepared by this Conven. tion ah beyond all. possibility of adoptioN, the question le, what will be done next? Kansas has a population justify ing an admission into the Union, she has been disturbed for years by the agitation of the question which can only be settled by her admission into the Union. A convention w frame a constitution was called, but the people refused to participate in the election of delegates; and a handful of voters elected the handful of men who compose the present Convention. The free State men, had they re sorted to the polls, could have elected a convention which would have carried out the wishes of the people, and w. day Kansas might have a constitution for ever disposing of the slavery question. That failure to vote in June last has caused a year’s delay. What ie to be done? ‘We suppose that upon the meeting of Cx will be introduced—an act in the very word sota act—authorizing a convention to form a State ox ton. If that act be passed at once, as it should be, Kansas tay be a State on the first of May next. If nosuch act be assed by Congress, or should be delayed, the present Pegietature will provide for a convention. At all events, a constitution aveh as will be acceptable to the panple will be prepared and ratified by the people, and will he pre sented to Congress early inthe spring Upon that con stitution thus ratified ant approved by the people, Kansas will be admit he democratic party stands pledged mon the without questioning her dec ‘That decision must be made by perfectly made, that decision must be and sired the admission of Kansas as a free Stato seo the consequences of the mad career of Lane \ inter. ‘The refural to vote at the eleation of Gelegates bas postponed the admission of Kaneas, and en red her free Had these men voted then, as | they dit in October, the State of Kansas would now be prepared for admiesion with a free State constitution, and & democratic. ps e ‘ty in power pledged to her admission he has how to commence where she did in Jane last end elect a convention in 1867 that mi » been elect pe phe SE hat might have been Southern Account Be Johnson County [Correspondence of the Mobile Register, Kassas, Oct. 18, 1867.

In all this % see no fraud ! ¢ result will be, if the pro-slavery members elect from Jobuson and Douglas do not get their seats, the Lo- islature will stand 14 democratic and 25 free soil, and in the Council 4 democratic to ¥ free soil; and besides this, if ‘they thus get a majority it is their avowed intention to rule out the Leavenworth members, thus gaining eight more members and five councilmen. The Legislature will then stand 85 free soilers to 4 democratic in the House, and 12 free soilers to 1 democrat in the Council. A beautiful body it will be! ‘The Latest from Kansas.

Jn the constitution there is a ‘sion for a Danking system. It decides the capital shall be $3,000,000, and that there shall be four branches, two on each eide of the Kansas river. The Convention declared the bank charter granted for banks in Kansas, last winter, as null and void. In debating this proposition, it came out that in making up a bank at Lecomptou last'summer, it was necersary, in accordance with the charter, to exhibit acash capital of $50,000. This was done by borrowing two thousand dollars and putting it m two bags.

OLIVER ©1158 WOODMAN, THE HUSBAND OF MRS, CAROLINE WOODMAN, ‘New Onuzans, Mor. % 1857. have heretofore refratmed from any notice of the nu- merous publications, falge and libellous as some of them have been, res ‘the unfortunate which bas existed between Mrs. Caroline Woodman and Mr. Gardner Furvive, of New York. Ishould continue silent on this subject were it not fer the publication of the scandalous preesecies by writef habeas corpus gue up by ~ villain before a Judge of the Supreme Court New York, under the pretence of rescuing Mrs. W. from ‘confinement, tntreally with the view of again obtaining Possession of her person. I belies That re letiers exhibited at the tfal of this wanse, and in this evening’s Delta, purporting to be leuersfrom Mrs. W. to Mr, Fare forgeries. They are pot characterized either by her babitual language or style of composition. If in her handwriting, they must have been prepared ‘by Mr. F. or hisattorneys, and copied by her attheir instance. So far as they report remarks as having-been made by me to Mrs. W., they are false. Itis ultfor one placed as I have been to reconcile the exeroise of a husband’s legal authority with that de- gree oftbumanity due toa deceived and guilty wife. It Was auy misfortune that she should have erred, but it would have been my crime had | abandoned her to the fate-which, without the exercise of my legal authority, ther, | Therefore. tonk soch (stays: a would place her inndor the protection of her kfndred 80 soon.as mine should be wi wn. That I ad the only effectual course of effecting this end, the following statement will show :— ~On the day after [had detected the guilty connection between Mr. F.and Mrs. W., at the New York Hotel, # friend, whose family were absent from the city, ‘kindly received Mrs. W. beneath bis roof, where she enjoyed every comfort. Her brother reached New York the next day and had a long inter- view with her—her declaration to the contrary, in one of the published letters referred to, notwith- standing. She then disclosed the fact that Mr. Fur- niss’ presence at the New York Hotel, and his having followed ber up wherever she had gone, had in view the extortion of money from her. The affidavit made by her afew days afterward, and now published ver- batim in the Deléa, will disclose at once the villany of Mr. F. and the sufferings of his unhappy victim. At this time she did not to realize her position; and although Targed berimms Hately tonccompany her bro- ther to Mississippi and remain with her parents, she re- fused to go. Her brother promised, however, to take la- dies then under his charge to Virginia, and then return for his sister. Mrs. W. bad been in the habit of taking opiates to excess, and having procured laudanum at this time, indulged in such free use of it as to be quite unmanageable, as well as incapable of realizing her condition. After consultation with her brother, 1 resolved, with his approval, and after having ad- vised her parents of my design, to place her tempo- rarily iu a private asylum, where she would receive medical treatment suitable to her nervous derange- ment, and be protected from future contamination. What else could I have done? I could not abandon her. I had kept her four weeks at the house of my generous friend, greatly to his inconvenience, and could not any longer abuse this privilege. The result has justified my course. Deprived of opiates, and properly treated, she improved so much that, upon consaltation with her physi- cian, I promised her that she should be sent to her parents in the mouth of November. 1 saw her but once after she was placed at Sanford Hall, and then no allusion was made wo the past; no word of re- proach was uttered by me. She expressed herself satis- fied to remain until I could send sor her, according to my promise. All her Jetters were sent to her father, mother aud brother, and I consulted them. I had not only their approval but their gratitude, On my return from New York I visited her parents m Mississippi and made arrangements with her brother to #0 to New York and bring her to her parents. He ac cordingly left Mississippi on the 24th of last month, pre vious to the commencement of the proceedings in ’New York, and without any knowledge of there having been any itderference with his sister, and should have Feached New York by the 4th of November. I have to-day Warned that #be left New York with him on the 6th of Nov r W i remained in New York, after placini Sanford liall, her physician visited the city twic J invarie}ly called on him, and received from him a note from her, in which she as invariably ackpowledged the | kind treatment she was receiving. I speMtlly iustracted | him to spare no expense in making her comfortable, and to permit her to ride out ina carriage When she was de. sirous of doig so, but always in company with an atten. dant. Having done this, [ thought I had performed my | whole duty | r 1 had left New York, her relf-constituted protec- | tor, not satisfied with having destroyed her peace and re putat.on, having for several years kept her in a state of traction and extorted from her large sums of money nce and threats of expos ‘@ series of letter now 1) My possession, endeavored to retrieve his charac ter by aflecting to be the cham) of ber whom be had so basely injured. Had my aim been more successful at New York his death would have been a just retribution and a public blessing; but the greatest punishment to such a wretch is to have gained safety through flight and to remain through life an object of contempt and aversion among all those who scorn depravity. 0. 0. WOODMAN, A Romance at Sea. {From La Cronica, Nov. 17.] ‘The Secretary of State at Madrid has commanicated to the Minister Plenipotentiary of the Unit in the following declaration, transmitted h the Minis- ter of Marine and made betore the Captain of the Port at Tarragona, by 1) Jove Bosel, captain of the Spanish brig jacinta. ‘On the 224 of July last, nt aeven o'clock in the morning, im north latiade 37 deg. § min. and we ugitude 34 deg. 30 min., being bound Mr Spain from Now Orleans, afler bemg ont thirty-three days, I perceived a boat wath ple Who were waving a white handkerchief aad pulling in the direction of my brig. Believing they were shipwreck | 04 Linstaptly gave orders to bear dow: to them, and, be ing © side, they told mo that two days before, being | ow wreult Of a whale, they, during a ; loat sight of their bark, in which they had left behind the wife of the captain, who was the man that was speaking to me, adding that she was in ap interesting position, having with her besides a little boy and two other ‘ A litle further north I perceived two other boats, all helonging to the American bark Alto, Capt. Thomas H. Lawrence. of New Bedford, whence he had sailed 43 days before. The men of the ‘said boats, numbering in all e , having been taken on board, exhausted from fatigue, were provided with food and clothing, and scoing the despair of the captain on account of the loss of his family and his vessel in the midst of the sea, I resolved at ee & im quest of them. The stormy wea. ther, the foreign idiom of the which did not per mit me to clearly understand the direction where the bark | might be found—the time which had passed sinco they hd ost night of ‘thelr ship, and my own obligations to continne my course, after having experienced thirty. and three days bad weather—all these powerful reasons | did not induce me to give up my resolution of aiding those unfortunate men consoling them in their on; and trusting to Providence and my good cause I steered w the north. ‘We passed the day without perceiving any vessel, and the night overtaking ue without ha pore, we passed it with the utmost vigilance, the captain being in a state of extraordinary prostration and anxiety, which increased my determination to continue my enter: prise. The dawn of the 23d came on, and my vigilance was redoubled; at 10. M. the watch at the masthead deseried a sail bearing N. N. EI immediately stood for it, and with # freshening wind, at eleven o'clock 1 distinguished a bark. 1 induced the captain to go aloft, encouraging him and trying to console him in every poseible manner, to see whether he could make her out; and at half-past eleven God had crowed my undertaking and fulfilled my wish—it was the bark Alto, The transports of Captain Lawrence were unbounded; he embraced me and offered me a large amount of money when he should get on board, which [ refused, for I would not crown my act by accepting money When a short distance from her I jowered the boats and carried the crew and their in to their bark, where, in fact, I found a poor young ly, with a babe in hor arms, breath! wimpy tp tp The captain, after the first effusions of his joy, bie offers, insisting upon my Il refusod as before, and having received the benedictions: ofall on board, I returned to my ebipto continue my ‘voyage.

Rappallo vs. The Mechanics’ Banking Association.—The receiver in this case made application for an extension of time. to the Court that he ‘bas been enabled to collect sufficientassets to pay off most of the liabilities due to depositors, and asks for an exten- sion of eixty daye’ time to enable him to settle with the remainder. The Judge said that in order to save the labor and expense of ascertaining by law the various lia- dilities of those who are actual owners of stock and those who are mortgagees, he would order the extension of time asked for. ANOTHER ALLEGED LUNATIC LADY. Inthe matter of Mrs. Moore, an alleged Lunatic.—The Judge said he would make an order in this case in the morning. He understood Mhat the lady had not been brought personally before the referee. Why, had not been stated by that officer. It appears that Mrs, Moore has been confined by her husband for 10 years, but not on the same ground as appeared in a case recently before the Court. She says, or at least her sister says for her, that she is sane, and asks for the interference of the Court. It would be very desirable if he had the power to have this lady or others similarly situated, personally be fore the Court, and a limited audienco; but he had no such power, and on the other hand he did not wish to have all the alleged lunatic ladies in the country brought to his house. He would make an order in the morning. MARITIME INTELLIGENCE. ALMANAC FOR NEW YORK—THIS DAY. 6 50| MOON sets... SUN RISES. eve 542 SUN SETS. eve 10 03 Port of New York, November 17, 1857. _ CLEARED.
