New Hampshire Statesman

Rejection of Every Proposed Amendment to the Constitution. The N. H. Patriot, of yesterday, publishes the votes upon the 15 questions concerning amendments to the Constitution, by which it appears that every proposed amendment has been rejected by a large majority.

The above towns embrace four-fifths of all the votes given or thereabouts.

On the question respecting the "Bill of Rights," the yeas in the 158 towns were 10,434—nays 16,753.

The Convention adjourned to meet again in April, but we can hardly see the necessity of its coming together, as all its doings are buried so deep that no resurrection will ever disturb them more.

When Lane's proposition was adopted, proposing such an outrage upon the rights of the people, we considered the doings of the Convention of no utility, as we thought the people would have but little confidence in any thing such a Convention might do. After that, as if to make the Convention odious, the Senate amendment was made odious, and then came the pro slavery resolutions of Pierce, Upham, Atherton & Co., introduced by Mr. Butters, of Pittsfield, which gave the finishing blow to the reputation of the Convention.

Another matter operated powerfully against the doings of the Convention, and that was the adjourning of the Convention to meet again, claiming the right to keep up its existence by adjournments for ten years or more. The people became mad, and if the Convention meets in April it should be not at the State's expense, for the State has repudiated the Convention and its doings.
