The .Government of the United States is aimixed Government, partly popular and partly federative, and .. , these features are manifested in the tnstitution for the Election of - Iresdent and Vice President. n: voting for President and Vicc VicPresident, each State votes accord tq her representation in Congress, p thI Carolina nine and New York tigitysix,' A majority of all the votes so cast is necessary to a choice, Iad this represents the popular fea , ,.ure.sof the Government. It is only ei' tie popular branch fails to elect that- the election assumes a federa ,.live character, and the States vote Sas tes, each State counting one. This-last mode of election is the re sult of the failure to elect, and a pro *visien-fosuul contingency. The 7 : natitution provides that " each h~lereof mydirect, a number of 'ledt~rs equal to the whole number 5 J'Setators and Representatives to wbd4lit State shall be entitled in the Congress." From which it is clear.ethat. the . Legislature would Iave the power to direct as to the ap afa~tinentfor .in other words, to di -adtthue mode by which the appoint nthill be made. But in Tire ring the mode, regard should be a~ idnotonly to. the previsions of the , ifstitution regulating the Election le os, but also to the principle -~' Shili'votes are cast for President .Neo-KV Nrsident. The election ppthe first~casting of the votes be. ni:hg a popularr one, the mode of ap. jiiitinent should conform to that ~%~ irincple. And it is submitted, that l~~etion of Electors by the Peo o Wuld be more in accordance . 'the 0dnstitution of the United ;ni he popular principle by ti~ v otes are cast. than the of ,Electors by the Legisla cudh 'partakes more of the fede ~-' - l O pfcmara te e w ould also re - ~ p d tIo passage of the bill, ~ 0pdien~cy as demanded by ~~nuwhiich the State is ' Ut1,t of Conigress of thtlaw prosoribed that'the Election of Elei tors, throughout the United State shall take place on the Tuesday, afts thy first Monday' in November; a day:interior to.-the meeting of .tl tegislature of this Stater . A neeei sity then exists, that the Constitutio of. this State shall. be:. so amende< that the Legislature will be in sessio at the tinie, or that. the. Governc shall call an extra session, of th Legislature every four years, or the the Election shall be given to th people. The two first proposition are objectionable. Qonstitutions Ion existing and understood. by the peg pie, qhoulj4iot be altered for sligl causes. A great and absolute, n cessity alone should exist to justify change-in that instrunent,-which' i the exponent of Government itsell The Constitution of this State ha not been altered or amended mor than-five or six times since its adopi ion; n your Counitte .cannot sec in this case, any necessity for alters tion or amendment. The whole diff culty -may be provided for by a sin plo legislative enactment, giving th Election of Electors to the people .., As to the other proposition, for th Governor to call an, extra session e the Legislature every four years there are objections to it. It is question of doubt whether the -Gc vernor can constitutionally conven the Legislature for the purpose c voting for Electors. " He may o1 extraordinary occasions convene th General Assembly," but it is submit ted, that the Legislature, having me since the passage of the act by Cor gress, the occasion is no longer a extraordinary one within the wear ing of the Constitution, but become an ordinary one an capable of bein provided for by ordinary legislation Even, too, if there were no doubt asg$o the power of -thiQ -Gornort tare for that purpose, still there ar objections to a call session, on a( count of the inconveuience and e) pense. It is true, however that th expense would not be very great, or ly about ten or twelve thousand do lars every four years, but it is tht principle. If the principle is wrong it is unnecessary, and therefore ut called for. Will this bill interfere with th Parish representation and the Con protn'ses of the Constitution of th State ? Your Committee believ that it will not, and they are not di: posed to interfere with that Compr< mise. The principle recognized i the Constitution of this State is, tha not only population, but taxation als should have representation ; but it i only in the State legislature, wher laws areinnade, and taxes impose] that that principle obtains, and i the relation which the Districts an Parishes beor to the State Govert ment in the Legislature thereof, an not in the Election of Electors relation altoget her dill'erent.

'No indeed, fath e r, I don't think the thieves of wolves will try here.' 'Why boy, why?' demanded f the father.'

'Would it not be better for us to order them into the hut?' asked 1 Rondinetto, caressing the huge fa. . vorite. 1 'No-no; let them take their a choice and if there be a real pack coming, do you give the signal, and s shut yourselves up.' e 'That we will, father,' said both. 'That is rig~ht,' observed the moun taineer; 'and now good-bye to you, iand quiet watch. I must make my Cportion of the rounds before the ,nighit sets in; for our flocks are e numerous on the table lands and valleys just now. Good-bye, for at d least three hours, when somne of the >t others will follow me--' e 'Good day, father,' exclaimed g both; and then they fell to watch inge the firm and sturdy step the " mountaineer shepherd took as lie *descended the lofty heights between the bosom of the valleys in which d the luxurious pastures lay. a Just as he was about to descend hi into a ravine he had to cross, anid e vanish from their sight, lie stopped, e turned around, waved his hand, andI r- with a shout that rang in the clear airr, descended as the two brothers jjoined their voices, and uniting ethem with the deep diapason of' ~. the hiuge dogs' throats returned s. the gratulation. >r For some time they stood si. y lent, gaping in the direction the e- mountaineer had taken, but no hu man being was now in sight. They then began to talk of desultory mat. e ters in which for a moment the '. wolves were entirely forgotten, when, all at once, a peculiar and pro longed cry, not loud or ferocious, startled, all four in an instant. As if struck with a sudden spell, their a limbs became rigid and strung to r- tension that indicated both strength gand hardihood, The two lads with their ee. flxt 'down the sides of the ruggdda pat away, which a little abovewhe, they stood, ojeed upon vat spac+ of the softest and closest- ve ne.

Unce more the cry caese, lowe and suppressed, but still peculiar an prolonged. It was like a signal. 'Pietro, my brother, do du: kno that sound?' asked Rondinetto if w (lid iot by this tine learnri hov of a wolf, or the watcAh, , w should not make, 'either she s hunters.' 'And you will be -a hunt "pui sued Pietro.

'The wolves will force this passage Pietro,' said Rtondinetto;'and we ha better keep as near to the hutas pa sible; for there will not be a doze or twenty, but they will come i scores, perhaps. Hark!' Again the cry arose, and now was joined in by several others. - Twilight that lingered still in thr lofty region, made the craggy patl way clear and open, and they sa several dark objects issue froi among thickly growing pine tree, and crawl stealthily, till the animate mass rendered it impjossiblo to 1 numbered. By the heavy door of the hI stood a pole, around which a conbu tible material of tow and pitch wt wound, which, on being ignitet would communicate itself to the tos ering shaft of' pine placed there f< the purpose. "WVithin, Pietro, within!' shoute Rondinetto. "T1he dogs (and I ca keep the first body at bay4. I mu; have a shot, and one or 'two dowi they will stay to secure. comrade while the sound of the rifle will he' to carry the alarm. Quick, they ai coiing-get fire-get light-arl look to your hatchet. Now, my n ble Lion! my bravo Death! look to my bravo dogs, and may your i stinct guide you!' 'Heavens, what a number,' sal Pietro, as he cast a glance belos before entering tho but to pirocul the fire; and Rondinetto, with a pa face, with caln firm lips,,knelt dowl his weapon in his hatid to stril down the fir'st corner. 'Light up, Pietro,' hb said, 'at pass mc the powder and thullets.' The next moment 0, wild and hc rible yell was sounded through ti forest, and reverberated in the h< low of the rocks. Tihe sky was ne dlarkly blue, and the livid flame cre rapidly up the signal pole, and rushing avalanche of living, rave ous wolves were forcing'the pass. At that moment, whi e a frightf yelh arose from the wh 4le troop yell that made the blool chill in ti veins-while the nobl~ dogs we preparing for the figh -while ti blazing pine stem flung 'its luridi formation far and niear,: a shot rai with a sharp deafening crack, and gigantic wolf, that seeme~d the lead< d gave a leap into the air, and then the h. diabolical character of the ferocious -e cries changed. ,s The next instant those who follow ed had tched upon the carcass, arid -e while h .was. being. torn .into fifty pies another had, by a detour, e space, and Rondinetto we to. fire another shot ne- door, ere the wolves ha uded the hut, and it re d quired all the strength of the two brothers to press the door to, and 2. and place the bar across it. - The yelling that arose from with. e out.was absolutely horrible; but what i. was the horror of the youths to hear e these. yells answered by .one from 1. within in reply 1 - The blood became ice -the joints, r for an instant weak as water-and a d mutual despair gliamed in the eyes of both. i They had shut a wolf up with e them! I For the first few minutes they e heard the deep baying of the hounds r without, and then as suddenly ceased. The two boys concluded that the dogs, having their own reasons for what they did, had assisted. the first i. resistance, and, the signal - being given, had in their own fashion re treated. , That this latter was a-difficult and dangerous process, there was no o question; but Lion- an. . Death were ,. sagacious hounds, and possessed : methods of their own; so the boys s' had no fear. This was what passed through their minds while the first business of se e curing the door had -been gone h- ut as ns. they k ow ,e ts 6 eryto9h 'tin'to i1~e fact t~aiatRondi-, s urry of fasten th' oor, let his axe fall; and this also a e of reach, while any attempt h o4 tig P part to move, might have 1. pt-eciitated upon them the huge, ,. rav nous, hideous, brute. s His red, feverish tongue was pro. truded, and he panted fearfully. The display made of the enormous teeth, the unusual size of the animal, . the fierce untractable eyes with that n peculiar glare so commonly express u ed 'wolfish,' were fastened upon them; and the bristling hair and t short mane, all indicated that the . savage .brute only remembered the t fatal effect of the shot, and was part. . ly cowed by that. y 'If I could but reach the gun,' n whispered Rondidetto. ,, 'Look out,' said Pietro; 'get your d knife ready-we forgot those-I see e mischief in him.' 'Shall we make a dash at him?' it inquired the first speaker. s. 'Are you afraid? demanded Pie 1s tro, quietly. I 'I do not feel so; but 'tis a horrible r- brute.' >r Get ready; think of your mother, and trust in God upon the Virgini. d 'Now,' and the brave lads, as he n spoke, both dashed at the hirsute at monster, who, with a revolting cry, ~, seized Pietro by the leg and began 3, gnawing it, but the two knives had p wounded without doing more than in -e furiating him. *d 'Kick the axe to me,' said Pietro, a- on the ground, and stabbing at the it enemy all the tine. ' 'Tis done.' ri- A thought flashed through Rondi netto's breast. The light from which d Pietro had obtained fire to light the r, signal, was not yet extinguished, and 'e some too mixed with turpentine be le ing at hand, he silently and swiftly i, reached a loose mass, applied it to ;e taper, and in an instant whbile't spread into a leaping lane, -with a id cry, thrust his full band before the wolf's face, who, with a howl of r- affright, released Piotro, who, the ie next instant, like a bold-witted boy ih- as he was, broughit down his axe w with a strong anid effectual blow pt across the animal's snout. a He was now mad with pain and n- terror, and turning from Pietro, who was much lacerated through the ul thigh, attacked Rondinetto and threw -a him to the ground, as lie was loading io the gun, and, but for his vest, would re have fixed his toamning fangs the ie boy's throat. n- 'Thei axe, Pietro; strike him, or he ig will kill me!' cried the half-strangled a boy. a.. r, Pietro was desperate now' as well =as- savage;=':but 'his strength was much' wasted:. Knowing that it aai his: last chance, however, and de-, termined not to survive his brothbr, he gripped the axe, and though' the two twinkling eyes of thewolf glared like burning coals, and were fixed upon bim,,he was-not intimidated. 'He lifted up the :axe-in both hands. A deviation 'of the blow might have killed his brother-down it came, and through the skull of the animal, who, with his brains scattered, fell dead upon the fainting Rondinetto. They were saved ! In an hour's time they heard the. cries of the dogs, and their father's voice without. The door was opened,. and the harrowing tale of danger and escape told. -It was the largest wolf ever seen in the mountains that the boys had slain; and their reward was proper. tionately great, in addition to the honors gained. Silver Mines in South America. A correspondent of the Newark Advertiser, writing from the San Antonio Mines, 150 miles from Cal. dora,. February " 5, .1852, gives the following account of the silver .nines, there, which he visited i -company with Don. Bern . ecedo, the owner of them The mines 'astly different from anything I ad conceived. .For three hours I was led by' one of the minors through horizontal shafts around vast chambers, along winding gallaries, down steep drifts, up crook' ed staircase, eut iu' the rock, , back. wards, forward, to. the' right, to the left, and in every direction, until -. became complotely bewildered, and should .never have' been able to, find, my way' out again,. had I b left to my own guidance. When-1 . e came to a large cbarnber, e we -were told. had been at wealth in silver. At one cham r. y lI mi ~ime l n milb piece to Carry honi'e. Onu( of days I will send you the result pf my knowledge of the use of a big hanner. The loud reports of blast ing going on in diflirent parts of the nmines were terrifie, and the appear ance of the miners, half-naked, dri ving away at the solid stone, was a sight. The natives carrying out the ores and refuse in hide bags on their backs, and up steep crooked shafts three hundred feet deep; gives one an idea of labor only to be found in a place like this. After spending three hours in this great mine, which has been worked for twenty-two years. I came out at the top .of the mountain, having gone in at the base. Taking a lew moments to breathe, we commenced the descent of another mine, belonging to Don Bernado, which is close to the first, and from which they are now getting much rich ore; and when we came out we .were tired enough I assure you. When we arrived, we found the cook and steward of the establishment drunk and in bed. This being Carniv al week, most of the natives are enjoying it. You can imagine the wealth of this mine, which is located in a narrow steep ravine about one mile from the river v'alley, whent I tell you, there isi a village of some size at the mouth of' tihe ravine, occupied by P'eons and the natives of the country, which has been built up and entirely supported for years by the stealings of personms employed in the mine. I suppose that one tenth of rich ore is stolen; therQ is not a native miner in Chili wiho will not steal if he huas a chance, and boast of' it afterwards. When the mines are rich, the owners employ a foreman for each miner, to overlook him while mining, but I urn told that the foremen are as bad as the men; there is nao dependence to be placed in any of them. 'The own era seldom go near the mines, and when they do they rarely go into them. Don Bernado has owned the mine for eight years, having given for it $100,000, but has never been into it, except jnst a few feet at the lower entrance. He owns large shares in many other mines at Chanrello and Tres Puntas, one to the north amnd the other to the South of this plac, both of which I have promised him to go and see. .He wishes mae to become an owner in the mines, and ol'era to give me shares in his mines if I wvill only stay in the country : but .tell him I cannot stay, and have no fancy fo)r mining. lie gives me a fine.spt men of silver ore every ~time I geoq him.
