The Civ off New Orleans.

An election comes off to-day in New Orleans. "A
Mayor of the City, Recorders OF the Districts and other
municipal officers are to be chosen
For some years past elections in New Orleans have
been only redeemed from being farces by being turned
into tragedies Blood has flowed freely and the elective
franchise has been exercised by those opposed to the
dominant party at the risk of their lives At the last
election out of 900 registered voters only about 1000
votes were cast Men of all parties became FESTIVE
der this terrorism. Whether the plan of reform by
extraegal means result in good doubtful but the
movement has certainly arisen out of supposed neces
sity, created by the existing order of things.
1t would appear that Mr.. Stith, formerly foreman
of the Picayune Office and now Recorder of of the
Districts had been selected by the dominant American
party as their candidate for Mayor About the 26th
of May movement was started to get out an ndepen-
dent ticket and Major Beauregard solicited to al
low his name to be used Independent candidate for
Mayor at the ensuing election. The Major accepted
STIMULATING for perfect independence.
It would seem that the sgners of the request to Ma
or Beauregard including many of the leading men Of
the city, having no confidence in the ability OR DISPOSE
ton of the present city authorities to protect the citizens
in the exercise of the right of suffrage organized them
selves into vigilance committee, and have issued pro-
camaton setting forth the fact that the people, tired Of
wears of disorder of assassination and misgovernmen
have taken into their hands the duty of sefproec
ton The vigilance committee guarantees protection
to all weIdsposed citizens butadds that ruans who
have dyed our streets with the gore of unoendng c
zens and spread terror among the peaceabe orderly and
weldisposed, .must leaUe OF perish :"
The Committee has possession of the arsenal, and the
public arms Its forces are welldriled and under
the command of Major Duncan late of the o. S. Army
The city police has always been unoganized mob anc
| is now worse than ever.
On Thursday and Friday the city was the scene o
much excitement, and collision was expected but Later
on Friday compromise efected-the vigilance
committee triumphed and the municipal power was re
signed into their hands. The city peaceful as at
as Saturday morning thousand vigilant police hat
been enrolled.
But the drama has not yet closed The friends of thu
new movement the opponents of Mr.. Stith They
avow their determination to defeat him at the polls
they can. Although the municipal authorities have
WELDED the friends of Sth have not They have called
out the Washington artllery-have possession of thu
several armories and are preparing for struggle which
may eliminate at the polls. To-day will show the re
suit We trust that bloodshed may be avoided

The British Constitution.

Hearing and reading SO often of the /" British Con-
stuton might be lead to suppose that there was
some such thing in existence In the American sense
of the word Constitution there is not and never
has been, constitution in England We understand
constitution to mean a certain written agreement,
establishing a government defining its powers, and
assigning to each department its legitimate sphere OF
duties With US constitutional provisions are something
above. and beyond mere legislative enactments.
There is no written constitution in England-noth-
ing higher than acts of Parliament Theoretically the
legislative power, consisting of King Queen Lords
and Commons is supreme and uncomfortable, bound py
the restrictions of no established constitution. In prac
tice the British Government is just closely bouno down
as our own Certain axioms and usages have obtained
an authority greater than written agreement coud
confer These however deficient in theory are IN prac-
tce constitution as little subject to violation as any
other Thus the Grown appoints the Cabinet ministers,
who hold at the pleasure of the Crown but it is under
stood that the House of Commons removes Cabinet,
since no administration can remain in office unless they
can command majority in the House.
1t is the theory of the British Constitution that the
officers of the Crown really carry on the Government
Upon them devoves the responsibility of devsng meas
ures necessary to meet every great public want 1t IS
expected that some member of any incoming Cabinet
shall explain its proposed policy to each of the Houses
If that policy suits the House of Commons all right
For instance it is expected of Earl Derbys Cabinet if
in Office when the pacifcation of India is effected to
bring forward bill for the future regulation of that
country If the ministry bring forward measure, and
that measure is defeated in the Commons, then they
bound either to resign ego to the country that is
appeal from the members to the constituencies When the
administration is defeated upon any important
measure of policy brought forward by tit
is looked upon implying such want of confidence
on the part of the House of Commons renders resig
nation imperative. Some times this expression of want
of confidence may arise incidentally yet if marked and
emphatic it equally compels resignation. Thus, the re-
mova of the PamerstOn Administration effected by
the vote in the House of Commons upon Mr.. Miner
Gibson resolutions, implying censure upon ministers
for not having in the opinion of the House, maintained
the national honor in the diplomatic correspondence with
France on the Refugee question. An adverse vote OF
the House may at any time, turn out the Derby cabinet
and recall the Palmerston ministry to power which
would be matter of serious regret Pamerston has al
ways shown an aggressive and meddlesome disposition
towards the United States.
