A few of our citizelns bteing inuformed that thei w Ipeiolt of Hien title parish were pet itioning tlhe Gtenera.l Assembly on this slllject, determinedri to ilct ii. eoutl*rt, andl :evel.r.l I"titionis re Itwing cireiala; Itedl rayling the Senate atnd tlouset aof IReplresentativesi to mak lllsk iroti sionl fr a c)nstitutionalli conventioll ait the ensuiltg sessioll of the IA'lgin gitluire. (ihl the sutbject of constitu tionall revision there is, I suppose, but one opinion. All see and tel the llecssity', but how antd whens is tile lquestion thait gives rise to dIiflerences-sumen favoring legislai tive ameslldmeuts, others a coavlen tioll. The advocajtes of the former, i. e. by unldllealment, urge as one of their Ihe:aviest objections to a cons venitio -is tthe exxlnelts attachitng thereto. Again they chaium that ill ait ew eoastitution we will Ihaive to vote oni it as it whole anlld thie pirob ability of havilng nli.ny things still objectionable. O(ne other that 1 lhave hIeard, to mny mnind too weak to notice, is ihat the interest of the sosutl ern part of the State sand the river parilshes are diverse to thalit of the nortllern parishes, a:lnd we will siltfer byv tilhe ulllbitillts illn a coISti tutioual convetllntlil.

It is aslso urged tha we need a political sabbath after struggle of years in order tha every politiest sterre be qutieted, inns the strife asset bitterness of year be buried, two ask the deliniueu taxpayer whose home has been soha for taxes, if his condition will admi of such a isabbath; ask all theae peo ple who voted for those who were so loudly calling for retrenchment janid reform if they cawr louger wait for theta to fulfill their vows, and if you get no anaswer sooner, next Jovemllaer, '7t, you shall hear them answer is their representatives come ntot nlow to their relief by a newI constituttion. In this parish in less thllan one week ward six speaks out by latition almost unanimlousnly for a convention. .n one day in Ste town of llomer over one hutn dtred niames were signed il a most enthusiastic tanllnter, only one man refufsing hlaving og-ctions, and one decliniung on the grounld that he a had given the subtject but little thought. .Aladl so far ias I have been able to learn none opipose a conive tion except those now holding of fl nee, and this is not to be construed as emltbracinlg all that do hold office, aor as a reasam that lromlpts them enatirely. I do not regard this the time nor do I claim to be the man to lresent the objectlionable features !of tihe lIresent constitution; but as '--to the bIsRt nuolo of relieving our si elves, I ha:ve Ino doubt tlhat a con vention naill be the chealest anad the only way that will ever satisfy the 'people' of this State, and give San a goverlnment that will secure proslwarity to the Ijeolle. and afford that shelter atl irotection that shall invite and encourage emi I grants and capital that will devel. op the resources of otr State. Then let every man feel his inlterest in this ttsubject land get uip ltittiolns and secure every voter's naale who f tHels thle weight of taxes and waants relief. aJ. State Immigration Convention.
