When the Convention wm prepared
for business tills morning, Judam Han-
000k made a motion to reconsider the
vote of yesterday, adopting his
amendment to Mr. Pasohw's resolu-
tion. ~ It will Wretttemfcered that the'
reBolntion of Mr. -Paschal- anno«need-
the willingness of members to take
the Constitutional oath and to receive
any communication the Governor had
to transmit. Tho amendment offered
by Hancock was in substance simply
striking out the tender to take the
oath, and inserting in its place au or-
der requiring all members who had
not taken the amnesty oath to take it.
In making the motion, Judge Han-
cock said he did so for several reasons,
principal among which were, 1st, to
avoid the misconstruction that would
be' placed on a refusal to take the
oath as proposed; 2d,' to produce
harmony and concord in the Conven-
tion ; 3d, becttiiso taking the oath did
not increase the obligations of mem-
bers, nor lessen their ability to fairly
represent their constituency; 4th, that
the taking of the oath would result in
good—at least it could not resultln
harm; 5th, that it would place uffin
sympathy with the President in his
plan of reconstruction, anil would
take from the bauds of his eneinies a
powerful weapon which they were
using to prostrate him—viz: the con-
tumacious opposition of the Southern
people to the fact that the Constitu-
tion of the United States is, indeed,
the paramount law of the laud.
The motion to recousider was se-
conded by Judge Frnzer, of Harrison,
by a desultory speech, commenced on
yesterday and ended to-day. The
motion to reeoltsider was earried by a
vote of 69 to 12. ' -
Mr. Paschal ottered a resolution in
these word^:
Resolved, That Judge G. A. Evarts,
now proceed to administer to each
member of this Convention, the oath
to support the Constitution of the
United States.Adopted.
The roll was called—each member
rising as his . name was called—TO;
mained standing until all were up—
when attention being ordered—every
right hand was raised, and the oath
repeated by Judge Evarts, to which
all assented. Thus was put the fin-
ishing touch to thiMtrganizatian of the
Convention.-
Mr. Paschal agaii- took the floor,
and offered the following resolution
•' That a Committee of 5 persons be
appointed ■ by the President, to call
upon the Provisional Governor, and
inform him that the Convention is
now fully organized, a#d is ready to
receive any message 61' commnnica
tion from him." Adopted. "p-*:
Committee.—Paschal, Gurly, Dick-
son, McCornvick and Latimer.
The resoliftion adopted 011 yester-
day to elect a Reporter was executed
to-day, by acclaiming E. K. Smith,
(not 12. Kit by,) of Soule University.
Reporter to the Convention.
Message received from the Gover-
nor—which was read from the Pres-
ident's stand, by Judge J. H. Bell,
Secretary of State.
The following .standing Committees
have been agreed 011—but the mem-
bers composing them have not yet
beeir designated:
Committee*.—1. On the Condition of
tho State. '-I. On the Executive De-
partment. :t. On the Legislative
Department. I. On the Judiciary.
5. O11 th'e General Provisions" of the i
Constitution. (>. O11 Privileges and '
Elections. 7. Printing and contin-
gent expenses. 8. On Finance. 9. On
Education. 10. Public Lands. 11.
On Indians.
Bumpass, of Collin, ottered follow-
ing resolution:
That the condition of this State
demands thai this Convention should
alter or amend the present constitu-
tion of the State only so fur as factu-
ally necessary to enable the State to
resume its former friendly relations
with the United States, as a member
of tho Federal Union, and no farther.
Referred to committee on Condition bi
the State, 1
On motion, 1,009 copies of the mes-
sage of the Governor was ordered to
be printed for the use of the Conven-
tion.
Mr. Paschal moved that 500 copies
be printed in Spanish, and .500 in Ger-
man* for the use of the "Can't-speak-
Englisli" population, td which motion
Mr. Norton offered an amendment to
lau-
utters what he asserts to be existing
facts and political truths. Whether
facte and truths or not, we have to
deal with them as such, and should
thank him for his candor.
It is statpd in the message that
message
there are some members sitting as
Qpsyention wboare
not eligible to seats, because of the
absence of special pardon from the
President of the United States. Who
those members are, is not known yet,
with certainty—but,four members are
known J*> have come under any of the
exceptions, in the AmuQsty Procla-
mation—viz: Gen. Waul, of Gon-
zales, ex-Gov. Runnels, of Bowie,
John Ireland, of Gaudalonpe, and
Gen. Whitfield, tho identical com-
mander of Whitfield's Legion.—
Whether any or all of them have re-
ceived special pardons, I know not,
but. do not think they have. Ifo mti-
tfon has been made, or action taken,
which poiuts to their status. They
arei all prominent meu of the State
Much of statesmanship, long expo-
rience, and1 mature wisdom will be
lost at this critical time, if they can-
not hold their seats.
The evening sestioo was short, and
but little business transacted. Mem-
bers drew by lot for seats on the floor,
which disconcerted a good many
who "squatter sovereign" like, had
ensconced themselves in tho seats,
from which they could be seen and
heard to the best advantage.
Mr. Nortbn introduced a resolution
" That the Committee on Printing
and Contingent expenses
izod to contract for 10 cc
of tho papers of the cit
for each member,
Provided, That the pri
the Convention are publ
same." Adopted.

Thus are constituted the Comr
tees; whose report upon the
measures referred to them will'have
a material influence on the character
of provisions which form tho Consti-
tution. Disguise it as you may, yet
the fact is patent that, when a Com*
icittee reports in favor or adverse to
a measure, prima facie, it will pas# in
the direction the Committee reports—
hence the carefttl impartiality required
of the power which appoints the Com-
mittees, in order that all interests of
the people, aud every shade of opin-
ion and sentiment may have fair play
in forming the organic, law of the
land. The President of tho Convene
tion is a fair-minded man, possessing
as near au equilibrium of partialities
as any man in the Convention, and I
do not doubt' that his formation 6f
Committees is what he deemed just
and' equitable. If he is not above
prejudice and partiality, it is almost
useless to try to find u man who is.
What he has done, is done, and will
receive the judgme.it of his compeers,
who see him from every stand point
from which he is visible.
Judge E. J, Davis, the commander
of the 1st Texas cavalry, in Federal

On Friday, Feb. 9th, Judge Pas- '
chal, of Bexar, introduced a resolu-
tion into the Texas State Convention,
to tho efleet that t he Governor should
be informed of the organization of the
Convention* and their readiness to
take the constitutional oath.
Judge llai.cock, of Travis, ottered !
as an amendment to the latter clause i
of the resolution that tho Convention !
was ready to have the Amnesty Oath 1
