r njority of two-thirds favorable to the nomination of Col. Tuou'iHeii Johnson without the vote of Tennessee, by a touch of the Magician's wand, converted Mr. Uucker from a patent Steam Doctor Threshing machine, into a genuine patent Voting machine, by which he wad ena bled to enter the Ciuciis and give the fifteen votes of Tonne.ssee for Van Daren an Johnson, thereby secu ring Johnson's nomination for Vice President. What right or authority had this man thus lo vote away the most sacred rights and privileges of the freemen of a Sovereign State, and this, too, in direct opposition t their known w 11 anl sentiments! X'one at all, not even the shadow of authority. Uucker himself, in a Card published in the Van Buren piper at N ashville, admits that he hid undelegated authority whitver that he merely "happened, at Baltimore as a stranger"" wh m so tie of the man igers of the Caucus i:if)rm"d him of there being no delegates from Tennsse, and " that he miiiUt come in and vote if he saw proper." This man was direct from Washington, where .he find been in secret conclave with Gen. Jackson ari l Mr. Van IJ i ren; and is it hot reasonable to suppose that they ordered Liin to act as he did, that they might secure their favor ite object viz: the nomination to the Vice Presiden cy of that chief of moral and political perfidity, Rich ard M. Johnson, which they could not attain otherwise! Call you not this an interference on the part of the Pre sident in the choice of his successor! Did any former President ever assume the right to dictate to the I'eo ple whom they ahould choose to succeed him ! These ere startling facts; and we call upon all who value the Llessings of civil liberty, who are nut willing to sacri fice, upon the altar of unh dy ambition, all that is held tlear by freemen, ail who are not prepared to .submit to the yoke of a military despot, to pause and rolled be fore it is forever too late ! CONVEXTI ( X PRC X'EEI )I .NTS S. The proceedings of the last week of the sitting of the Convention came to hand so late, and heme; antici pated in our extracts from the Raleigh paper., and the Captions which we publish to-day, that w have con cluded to omit all but the last day's proceedings, which we copy from the Register, to which paper we are in debted for the principal portion of our information du ring '-he sitting of the Convention. Saturday, July 11, l'io. Mr. Gary called up the Resolutions which he yester day offered, returning thanks to the Authorities of the Presbyterian and Methodist f'hnrchs tor the use ami oder of their Churches, and to the Rev. Mr. McPhe -ters anl the Rev. Mr. Jaaiiesou for their services; which being read, Mr. Gary moved an addition to the Resolutions, "that the Rev. Mr. McPheeters be requested to fur nish a copy of the prayer o'fered by him this morning i;i the Convention, and that the Secretary ent-T tlie 6a me on the Journal of the Convention." Mr. Carson, from Burke, asked leave to move the f jl lowing, as an amendment to the Resolution fturniag thanks to tiie Chaplains: "and that the Rev. Dr. Mc P ureters anl the Rev. Mr. Jamiesori be requested to accept of .s-0 each." Tne question being taken on trie several propositions together, it was decided in the affirmative. J.j r- G iston, from the. Committee of Seven, report ed the Ordinance for carrying into edect the projxisetl amendments to the Constitution, as being correctly en rolled, which being read, was finally piseed. G v. S.vain being temjiorHrily in the Chair, Judge Gaston si id, that before the Convention p?r f )r.ne .1 the last Act which it hid to do, he would cill up the Resolution that he yestTlay laid on the table. II said, I am about to offer to t!ie Convention a Reso lution on which I know I shall meet with perf -d una nimity. However we may have beei 1 1 v i 1 1 1 on other subjects, returning our acknowledge nents to our vene rbie President, fr the aide m inner in wirch he his presided over this l. rly thf-re will be no dirieience of cpinio.i. Tne following Resolution was then read: Hi solved unanimously. Tint the th inks of this Con vention are du, and are hereby respectfully an 1 iT-c-tionatdv tendered to the Honorable .A ! A.I Z. M VCt V, their venerable Pre-u dent, for tiie di.-tin.rui sh ed ability, dignity, and impartiality, with winch he has discharged the duties of h;s .station. The Resolution being read, Mr. Carson, of Burke, in stantly roe and expressed a hope, that this mark of well-deserved re -sped to th"ir venerable friend, for pro bably the last public act of his life, would he testified by the members of the Convention standing. The vor 1 was no sootier spoken than every man in tae Convention was on his feet. The President, who had resumed his Chair, address ed tiie members of the Convention as follows: " t Jkxti.emen : The merits which you have as cribed to me, in the performance of my fluty in the Chair, belong to you. I have lo:i fir a Io'i time engaged in public business; and, though no one will charge me with bing a flatterer, I must say, that. I have never witnessed so much god order and decorum of conduct in any onhiic b-idy with which I have teen connected. When I entered Uon the imptrta it duties to which the Convention in their kia dness called toe, I w is fearful that I should not h ive been ablo to discharge them with anv s itisficti'Vi to myself or to th Conventi ri, nor should I, without your attentive aid and assistance. To vou, therefore, my thanks are due for all your kin Jness. "This, I expect, will lo the list scene of my public life. We are about t separate; and it is my fervent prayer that you may each of you reach home in safety, and have a happy meeting with your family and friends and that your days may In? l ong, honorable, and happy. "While mv life is spared, if am of you should pass through the county iu which I live, I shall be glad to see you." Oa the President's resuming his seat, and tiie applau ses of the Convention having ceased, Mr. Carson, of Burke, rose nnd said, that the conclud ing remark of tiie venerable President had called him up to say, "tint he was about to leave old Xorth-Carr-lr.ri, to reside in the fir West, where he should be hap py at all times to see any friend from the ol J Stite to be a North-Carolinian would bo a sulficieut recommen dation his house and corncrib should be at the service of his friends." Judge Gaton, from the Committee of Enrolment, re ported the Amendments to the Constitution, correctly enrolled on Parchment, which received the signatures of the President, Principal Secretary, an 1 Assistant Se cretary. Tiie President then informing th" Convention that the business wf the Convention was finished, O i motion of Ju Jge Gaston, the Convention adjourn ed, sine die. IVo.it the Prayer ojfered vp hy the ller. Dr. McPheters, at the close of the Concvnt'ton, we m ike the follo'rinz extract : "Aal novv, O Lord, as the business of this Con. vnti ! is drawiog near to a clo-e, follow with thy blessing whatever h is b"en done in accordance with thy will, an l graciously diiect this day, in all that remains to be done.

A GREAT AND GOOD MAN HAS FALLEN! It is with emotions of deepest sorrow that we per f trm the melancholy Us!: of recording the death of one the pa rest patriots, and most useful men that America co old boast of. The venerable JOHN MARSHALL, Chief Justice of th" Un'ted States, departed this life at Philadelphia on the fi'h in-lanL hi the death of this emphatically great man. America has lost her bright est ornament a loss which has not been equalled since the death of Washington. We copy lh following From the Penri'ifi tin Ii'julnr, of July 7. DEATH OF CHIKP JUSTICE MARSHALL. It is with emotions of t!.e deepest re.-ret that we an nounce to our readers that JiHIN MARSHALU Chief Ju-tice of the Supreme Court of the United States, de parted this life at half past s:. o'clock yestcr i ay arter noon, at the Boarding 11,-hh of .Mrs. Crim, Walnut street, below Fourth, Philadelphia. This painful intel ligence cannot but pro-1 ace a strong sen-ation through out the whole country. Mr. Mirshall was lxrn in Virginia, on the Clth of September. lToo: and, as early as the um nerot lio. I received a commission as Lieutenant of a Company of Minute men, an 1 was shortly aUr engage I in the bat tle of tiie (ireat IJridge, where the British troops, un der Ljrd Dhniiure, were repulsed with great gallantry. He was subsequently engaged in the m n .r ibh battles of Brandy -.vine, Germiutown, and Monmouth: anl, in 17""'.', obtained a license to practice law. Il. returned to the Army shortly afer, and continued in the service until the termination, of Arnold's invas: n.

On tiie ."Mat day of January, lOl, he became Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of the United Stjtes, which distinguished station tie continued to fill, with unsullied dignity, and pre-eminent ability, until th" close of a s mortal career. His biographer el oquently j observes " What, indeed, strikes us asthem -t re n arka- i ble in his whole characters-yen more than h ss.en lid ta- j lents, is the entire consistency of his publ.e life an 1 ; principles.

II. ; fX" The Report of the Iredell County Temperance Society came to hand to late for tiiis week's paper it shall appear in our next. A Sweet Story. If we did not receive the following j from very good authority, we should be somewhat slow ! to believe it. Our inform int saith, that Mr. Jame- M. Butler, of Montgomery county, some time during the last Sprieg, hived a swarm of Bees; shortly after, he observed three other swarms enter the same gome, and all went to work together. Iu alxtut three weeks after j Mr. Butler hived the first swarm, lie concluded to drive ; them, as is usual, when he obtained, as the proceeds of the labor of these industrious little creaturs, for this short time, TEN' GALLONS of pure honey ! It is needless for us to say that Mr. Butler is anti-Van, and opposed lo all Caucusing; except it is by the liec part)'. for the wixrini.v caroi.ini an. Franki.in, Rowan county, June 20, 1s3.j.
