A Man Sawed to Pieces.
A horrible accident oecured in the Navy
Yard at 2:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon,
by which Mr. Edward P. Sipler, aged
thirty-five years, aud a native of Borden
town, New Jersey, lost bis life, and the
details of the affair are as follows :
Mr. Sipler, who has a wife and three
children, came here from New Jersey
about four months a:ro, and has since
been in charge of the large circular saw
used for cutting heavy timber in the west
shiphonse or marine railway cover, and
about 2:30 o'clock in the afternoon was
adjusting th - guides of a four-foot circular
saw. which was running at the rae of
eight hundred revolutions, per miume
wbeu he nursed his stroke, and '.be weight
of the bummer-bead earned him in front
of the saw.
As quick as lightening the saw took
him before it as it bad been a chip, and iu an
iust iuce the ton of his head was complete
ly cut off Next, off went bis right arm as

COlTv-ENTTON.
The Hillebotv' Recorder, in a verv able
article urging upon the Legislature the
absolute necessity for a Conatiintinn.l
on vMition, refers to the popular miscon
ception as to the true idea of what a On-
veution as a bdy supposed to be
entirely distinct from, and above tbe pee-
1 a a aa m )
pie, independent of them, having plenarv
aud irresponsible powers ; a body coming
into existence by legislative will, let loose
prey upon laws and Constitution with
out restraint, and to fasten upon tbe pro
le just such a frame of government as
hance or caprice or hasty passion may
suggest.
1 be Recorder says that the difficulties
which have been thrown around tbis ex
eretoe of popular asaieety have had aaweb
to do with the fear that now attends the
eall of a Convention. Obstacles almost
amounting to prohibitions have been tbe
ebarasten-tiea of all our Constitutions.
The Constitution of 1776 seemed so per-

slightest intimation given by which de
fects in that instrument, sore to be de
veloped by time, were to be made. There-
ben tbe necessity came, the
School, two from the School of St. Cyr,
and one rose from the ranks. Of the 314
Generals now in active service, 18 Gener

risen ttom the ranks.
