NASH, LILLE. Oct. 30.-The lower house of our
Legislature has been the scene lateiy OF ex-
citing discussions in regard to the proposed
Con sttutional Con nvention,- the point at issue
being an amendment to the bill calling the
Con vention, which provides that all citizens
OF the state, epfranchised aud disfranchised,
shall be allowed to vote In the election Of DEL
egates TO the Con vention. II was participafed
in by quite number. and continued for some
time. without any definite action being taken.
There is little don BIT that the amendment will
be adopted by q strict party vote. The Radi.
Gals opposed il ON the alleged ground that IL
coz flcts with the present Franchise Law,
which Is claimed to bs part Of the coostitu ton
OF the State. The friends Of the amendment on
the other hand, insisted that even allow the
Franchise Law 10 be a constitutional provision,
its restrictions could not be applied to the
mere selection OF delegates to q Con ventuon
called to repeal said Franchise Law. The Con.
vention will probably meet early in Decem-
Der, altf ough the day for the election Of dele
gates has net yet been set.
Andrew johnson has visited the Legislature
nearly every day, Tor Q week, and gossip Is
busy as TO what Is the drift Of his movements
II rs pretty certain he will be the leading spirit
OF the coming Con vention. 1t is said ne Is
about to settle IN Nashville, and will ran for
Congress from this district.

THE INDIANs.-In his forthcoming report,
General Parker, the Commissioner OF Indian
Affairs, will, it is understood, take ground
against the system Of making treaties with
Indian tribes and will advocate the adoption
Of plan somew hat similar to the one IL use in
Canada. During the past year there has been
a marked improvement In the general condI.
tion OF the Indiaps: fewer depredations have
been committed under the humane policy
pursued, and more readiness manifested than
formerly to engage in agricultural pursuits.

the expenses Of the commission have been used,
and there still remains on hand q considerable
