In our neighboring Sta: Vir ginia, where representation is distributed by an arbitrary 1 -t. according to certain geographical divisions, and suffrage uni versal, so great was the jealousy of power in the hands c lere numbers, that these limitations would, of themselves almc con stitute an entire code. " - I submit, that I may now be allowed to insist, that Fi :e Suf frage does not carry out the principle of equality, nor fc 'low the precedents relied upon by its advocates, but utterly fags in both respeds ; and that if it be incorporated in our organic law, it will constitute an anomaly in Republican Government, an prove the balded experiment upon popular sovereignty ever made by 'American statesmen.

'-"K y - Under the old Constitution of 1776,' representation was accord ing to counties i each had 'the same wright or voice in the Legis ature, notwithstanding tbey were marked by the : greatest d is proportions in area, population and wealth. , ..These disproportions were to be found , not only"' between the two "great , divisions of the State, but also between the. different counties in either division. Such unequal allotment of power engendered in the public mind the most fearful discontent; and a restless agitation was felt iya every portion of the State. Many of the friends of reform seized upon the occasion, and by a Committee of distinguished gentle men, duly appointed, issued an elaborate address " 1 o the Free men of North Carolina," in June, 1833 ; in which, after arguing that there was not " even a plausible appearance of equality m our representation" and that, "the right of representation, of a fair and equal representation of the People, had become, in our day, but another name for civil freedom," earnestly urged tnem, " by their votes at the elections in August to announce ineir ue ih mipstion. whether a chancre is needed in the ' Conditution" and added that, u that expression being sent to your representatives, they will be bound to provide a remedy, or to pass a law by which you will be enabled to effect it your selves."" And how prophetically was this spoken 1 . The People did respond at the 'Polls, as volunteers, by a vote of 29,505 ; and the Legislature unwillinsr that rODular discontent should be far- s ther aggravated by a continuance of the causes which produced it. did. in 1834. nass a law under which the Convention of 1835 I j j g assembled. And what did that Convention do ? Finding that suffrage (ot the Commons was universal and unrestricted by property qualifi cation, it adjusted representation in that body according to num bers upon principles of equality ; but, reaffirming the Freehold quali fication of voters for the Senate, it erave to property an influence in that branch, by basing representation on taxation. Now we cannot fail to perceive, that, if Free Suffrage shall become a part of our organic law, the same marked disproportions in the popula- lation of Districts the same manifest inequalities in the allotment of power, will be found to exist in regard to the Senate, as existed in regard to the Commons before the reform ,of 1835. And is it a rash conclusion to suppose, that the same wide spread agitation, the same fearful strife and discord and the same vehement ap peals to the popular mind, will be visited upon us, with all their maddening effects f and will not, mud not, the same result irre sistibly follow by a similar reform in representation 1 Should it not, then experience furnishes no tests of human action, and the past, no clue to the future.

For this statement, and others before made, see table in appen .Ajl are the people of North Carolina, prepared to take s scheme of Government like this T A scheme which lodges unlwrit e .' jver in the hands of mere numbers, without any check or guad to control it ; a scheme condemned by the practice and ex ampje of every other State ; a scheme, in which, by the showing of evl&ry State, property is without safeguards, denied all influence at the? ballot box. and without any defense in the organic law, for we fiod in the Constitutions of all of them, Imitations and res- r7twupon the Legislative power a scheme, in fine, that offers no guaranties to the rights of Slave owners, and interposes no bar ri: .between the citizen and oppressive taxation, and unjust and .jteful expenditures.

P. Stockton Chappell, Esq: DcarSir: Absence from home since the mailing of your letter in Bnl timore, until last evening, has prevented an earlier reply, which I now give as briefly as possible. The wheat (Florence or Monument wheat) on the bailey alluded to, dressed in April, 1851, with your Fertilizer, preserved its superiority to the end: it was thicker and taller-say 4 feet 10, against 4 feet 6 the head was longer, con:alned more and better grain, and the yield, as far as mvscif and oth ers, who watched the progress of the two years' cultivation, aa well as the most casual observer, couid judge, was set down at 20 or 25 per cent, more than the guanoed ground oneither side of the Fer tilizer. I The ten acres of corn ground wheat, to which I alluded in mv former communication, matured fine ly j and although not seeded until the 22d or 23d of ietooer, ana nice mosi oroaa cast wneai mis seas on, waa rather thin, I shall make 15 bushels per acre from old field corn ground. The wheat on a land of 20 yards wide turougn this held, on wnicn the Fertilizer waa not applied at the time of seed ing, waa scarcely worth cutting, although it had been eauallv dressed with 30i. lbs. of guano per acre, aowed upon the rough and harrowed in im mediately preceding the corn planting, which was tha 6th of May. 1852. The reaults on the rye crop are equally satisfactory and favorable to the Fertil izer, as tbey are in the growing corn crops so far. : I have tried with good results your Fertilizer in combination with Peruvian Guano, 20, 30, 50 lb. of Guano to 300 lbs. of the Fertilizer. 1 believe 100 lbs. of Guano with 300 lbs of the Fertilizer, in most cases, would be better tnan duu oi uuano. i hall use 300 Iba of the Fertilizer, with some 50 to 130 lbs. of Guano, (in combination,) according to the strength Of the land for my fait seeding this year. Ia haste, very respectfully yours, t The. following is the letter alluded to by Com. Jones t '; Neas Psosvcct HiuVVa., Apiil 29, 1852. P. Stockton Chappon Dear Sir : I suppose I am indebted to your kindness for e, copy of the Baltimore San, of 17 March, containing notice of transfer of "(South Baltimore Chemical Wrk" to yon. I should have sooner acknowledged your at tention, but l, was anxious to see a turtner devel opment of tha effect of your Fertilizer before I wrote, z ou may recollect mat about a year ago I purchased the first Fertiliser, (a ton) with which 1 experimented with barley and corn; at the time of planting, and in wheat and grass, as a top dres sing, all in comparison with Peruvian and Patago- ntan Guano at about equal cost. The ettect on the barley was decidedly in favor of the Fertilizer beyond all question ; while upon wheat, corn and grass, the difference was scarcely discerns ble on the growing crops.' The ground on which the barley grew last year was seeded with Florence wheat on the 3d day of October, 1851 1 the ground was in the finest heart, 200 lbs. of Peruvian Gu ano having beta plowed in after following, but be fore seeding, which was done with Pennock'sdrill. The last dressing of guano was carefully sown broadcast transversely to the spring dressing of guanoaind to the belt of the Fertilizer, through the barley, which separated the Peruvian and thePat agoman guano, and the coarse of the drill crosses obliquely the belt of about sixty feet, oa which the Fertilizer was need a year ago. My wheat, like most wheat of tha season, is bat middling; my land was ploughed very deep, and although it Is high and rolling-, the wheat has suf fered severely from a redundancy of moisture ; nev ertheless, the wheat on the part in which the Fer tilizer was used at the time of sewing the' barley In April, 1852; is not only higher bat stronger, has ax better color, and is in every respect more promis ing than the wheat on either side of it, notwith standing the double dressing of Guano to one ol the .
