At 12 o'clock noon, on January twenty-third, the Council attended the chamber of the House of Representatives in a body where the joint assembly was addressed by Governor St. Clair, and adjourned by him to meet in second session in Cincinnati on the fourth Monday of the fol- lowing November. (1802). It should be noted here, that this proposed second session of the second and last territorial legislature was never held. The reason is given in the following interesting extract from the memoirs of a member of the Council speaking of the first constitutional convention :
"As the territorial legislature was in existence, and stood adjourned to meet at Cincinnati on the fourth Monday in November, three weeks after the opening of the convention, a resolution was passed, directing their president to request the governor to dissolve or prorogue that body. Such a precaution was altogether unnecessary, as no disposition existed among the members, either to embarrass, or in any way interfere with the movements of the convention. That such a disposition did not exist was verified by the fact that the day for the meeting of the legislature came and passed ; the members remaining at home as by common consent. No attempt was made by the governor, or by any of the members, to convene that body, till its existence was terminated, and it was succeeded by the General Assembly under the State Constitution." (Notes on the Northwestern Territory, 1847, by Judge Jacob Burnett, a member of the Territorial Council.)

THE QUESTION OF THE BOUNDARY OF THE STATE.
T HE question of boundary, though not expressly referred to the con- vention (The Constitutional Convention of 1802) was one of greater importance than would appear at first view. It is generally known to those who have consulted the maps of the western country extant/ „at the time the Ordinance of 1787 was passed, that Lake Michigan was represented as being very far north of the position which it has since been ascertained to occupy. On a map in the Department of State (at Wash- ington) which was before the committee of Congress who formed the ordinance for the government of the Territory, the southern boundary of that lake was laid down as being near the forty-second degree of north latitude, and there was a pencil line passing through the southern bend of the lake, to the Canada line, which intersected the strait between the River Raisin and the town of Detroit. The line was manifestly intended by the committee, and by Congress, to be the northern boundary of this state; and that map, and the line marked on it, should have been taken as conclusive evidence of the boundary, without reference to the actual position of the southern extreme of the lake.
When the Convention was in session in 1802, it was the prevailing opinion that the old maps were correct; and that the line, as defined in the ordinance, would terminate at some point on the strait far above the Maumee Bay ; but, while that subject was under discussion, a man who had hunted many years on Lake Michigan and was well acquainted with its position, happened to be in Chillicothe, and in conversation with some of the members, mentioned to them that the lake extended much farther south than was generally supposed ; and that a map he had seen placed its southern bend many miles north of its true position. His statement produced some apprehension and excitement on the subject, and induced the convention to change the line prescribed in the act of Congress, so far as to provide, that if it should be found to strike Lake Erie below the Maumee River, as the hunter informed them it would, then the boundary of the state should be a line drawn from the point where the prescribed line intersected the west boundary of the state, direct to the most northern cape of the Maumee Bay. That provision saved to the State of Ohio the valuable ports and harbors on the Maumee River and bay,which were the prize contended for in the"Michigan war of Governor Lucas." Yet some of the members (of the Convention) hesitated in making the provision, lest it might cause delay ; but fortunately it was adopted and its object is now secure." (Burnett's "Notes on the North- western Territory," 1847, p. 360.) (See also the language of the Acts .of Congress, 1800, 1802-1812, quoted in Part I of this publication. - EDITOR.

THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF OHIO. (1803-1901. )
T HE third legislative body to come into power in the territory com- prised in the present state was the General Assembly of the State of Ohio, which, following the adoption of the State Constitution. and the admission of the state into the Union of States, was organized for its first session, on the first day of March, 1803.
The legislative body thus inaugurated has been an enormous factor for good in the onward and forward progress of Ohio during the past hundred years. No group of men have served the state with so little personal gain as have her legislators. No body of public men has done so much to encourage morality, industry and patriotism. The wonder of it is, - not that legislators have occasionally made personal mistakes, - but that in no matter what strait or dilemma, Ohio has always had in her service, practically without compensation, so many men who were not only patriots, but men who exhibited the wisdom and had the courage to handle the affairs of state with honor to themselves, to their constit- uents and the name of an Ohioan. When the enormous power of a General Assembly is fairly understood, the more honor is found to be due those men who, since the first settler landed on the western bank of the Ohio, in 1788, have never used that power as a body, except to. advance the state in dignity and in prosperity, and in evidences of fealty in every hour of danger to the general government. More or less acquaintance with members of recent assemblies, and a quite studious. attention to the records of the past century in Ohio, gives point to these: observations.
