into the House of Representatives of Georgia:
WHEREAS, the stability and Permanence of the
Government depends upeR faithful adherence the
true principles of the Constitution. And whereas,
the great principles of constitutional ualiiy

L.OIIIS NAPOLEON =.

The latest arrival from Europe brings intelligence
that Louis Napoleon, who has just been elected Pre-
sident Dictator of France for years. is
tent with that, but is making preparations for
ing the imperial purple. The people of France have
at length shown that they incapable of seifgov.
ernment. Napoleon is but the instrument of the
spirit of despotism, for if he had not cutched the
rens of absolute rule. the probability, yea, the
tainy is that some other man would have done it at
early day. 1t is but natural that he should have
pursued the course he has; the people of France
blame for the present state of things, than
he. 1t is their fault that Constitutional liberty has
been struck down. and all power yes ted in man,
for they were able to prevent it, but, from various
causes, were unwilling. Let them hug their chains

them. .... ..............

JUDGES BY THE PEOPLE.

The Legislature of Georgia has passed bill by
the necessary thirds VOTE giving The election of
Judges of the Superior Courts TO the people. The
following are the most prominent provisions Of the
bill:
Judge on the LIST Monday in October. 1853, and
every four years thereafter. The Coweta. Macon
Blue Ridge, and Southwestern circuits hold their rst
election in October, 1885, and every four years
cessivey. No one vote for Judge who has not
resided in his circuit year, and in his county six
months prior to the elections and then is restricted In
voting to the county in which he resides. No one
can be elected Judge who has not lived ten years in
the State, three years in his circuit and been prac-
Using attorney for five years prior TO his election.
The mode prescribed for altering or amending the
Constitution of Georgia, is like that prescribed in
this State, with the exception that there the amend
ment must be approved in the first instance, by two
thirds vote and is not required to be submitted to the
people, any time, for approval rejection In this
State. a three-ifhs is first required, and then
two-thirds vote, and then approval by the people,
at the polls, before the amendment take effect.
In Georgia, in this State. the bill is required
be published six months previous to the next cleo
ton for members Of the General Assembly. =
The Constitution of Georgia is not, therefore, as
well guarded is against innovation and hasty
changes, for in this State the proposed amendment
must be submitted the people. while there the peo-
pie not thus consulted. The people of Georgia, of
all parties, are now engaged in making important
changes in their fundamental law, by Legislative
actment-the Constitutional plan for them and for us,
but which has been 50 bitterly denounced by certain
politicians. 81. III. .-as.- .s "a

DISTRICT CONVENTIONS.

Our frierds the pubiicaR and Patriot, JoufHal,

District Conventions to appoint Delegates TO Balti-
more; and the suggestion mas been made-in view
of the difficulty, account Of the extent of country
embraced within our Districts, Of assembling these
bodies-that The Delegates 10 the State Convention
from the respective Districts should make these ap
pointments. @ .r--gs..t -s-s-..r,
This, II strikes us. is matter entirely with the
Districts. They are entitled TO the Delegates. and
they may appoint them in any mode they may deem
proper. The preferable plan, undoubtedly, is to APP
point by District Conventions assembled for the pur-
pose and this plan generally observed four years
ago. 1t would not be difficult, it to US, get
Conventions in the central and Eastern portions of
the State where the population is heavy and the par
ty strong but in some of the Western Districts it
may be, account especially of the wide extent of
country which these Districts embrace. The better
District Conventions, leaving TO the people of the
Districts to appoin, by Conventions held among
themselves, to refer the matter to the State Con-
venon and should ii turn OUT when the latter Con-
venton assemblies, that any Of the Districts have
failed TO act, it would be easy matter for the State
Delegates from counties composing such Districts to
meet together and appoint. .- ~
We hope to North Carolina fully represented
in the Baltimore Convention. She will vote, in all
probability, for the nominee of that body; and it is,
therefore, her right and her duty the fullest
