Constitutional Conventions.
IN. o. Democrats

The recent Constitutional Conyen-
lion of Georgia embraced too large a
number of able men and prominent
politicians. Each of them had his
hobby, his pet idea and policy, and
employed too much of the time of the
convention with able speeches and
fiery debate. The most thoughtful
and deliberate of the body were very
much dissatisfied with the result, and
SO we think will be the people. The
time and circumstances were nos ia
yorable to that close study, investi-
cation and comprehensive statesman
ship which were SO much demanded
for a satisfactory conclusion of their
labors.
There are some wholesome changes
in the instrument which was evolved
by this convention, but we think that
the defective and unwise changes
predominant. This experience sug-
gests a plan which strikes us as a far
wiser one than that of revising our
State constitutions through these
large political bodies called conven-
tons. 1t was the plan which was pur-
sued in New York when their last
constitution was adopted.
This was the appointment of a
board efable jurists and statesmen,
selected from the different sections
OF the State, aud representing the
several classes of the people, to which
was assigned the duty to prepare and
reduce to proper form and language
the various needed amendments of
the constitution and report the same
to the Legislature for their considera-
ton and approval or rejection. In this
manner our own Civil Code aud Code
of Practice were prepared AID adopted.
That WIS much more lahorious and
difficult work than would be the prep
aration of constitution. If approved
by the Legislature, these amendments
aud changes could be Submitted to
the people, without the expense and
the inevitably Unsatisfactory and EN-
barassiug accomplishments and re-
snlts of 4 convention.

AMOS S. DARRow.-FIom the Ro-
chester Evening Express of August
IL, we copy the appended obituary
notice of this late lamelted gentle
man:
We have received to, day notice of
the death of Amos S. barrow, which
occurred at Donaldsonville, La, on
the 10th instant. He was we'll known
to many of our citizens as the brother
of Erastus and ex-Alderman Wallace
barrow of this city. A native of Ply
mouth, Conn, he was graduated at
Yale College i'll 1847. Was at one
time principal of No. IL school, i'll this
city. Previous to the war, he was
largely engaged in railroad and levee
contracts near Vieksburg, Miss, aud
came North during the war, being de-
tanned at the camp on the Genesee
until honorably released by the Wan
Department. For several years past
he has been engaged in levee con-
tracts on the lower Mississippi, re-
siding on his plantation there. All
who knew him will mourn the loss ot
good man and true friend. He
leaves wife and three children, who
have our most sincere sympathy.

At recent session of the Sazerac
Lying Club of Austin, Nevada, IA
member asserted that mules never
die. He said they took on the SEM
blance of death, but it was q decep-
ton. Sometimes they are turned
into newspaper editors and Roman
wrestlers, but they never ceased to
exist. He said there is mule now
used on a within on n mine in Hum
boldt county that was used as breast
work at the battle of New Orleans,
was owned and driven by Grant in
California, went all through the war
of the rebellion, was blown up in a
nitro ycerine explosion while assist
ing in the construction of the Central
Pacific Railroad, was in st. Louis
when the Southern Hotel was burned
and is a pretty good mule yet, with
the strength of his hind leg only di-
unfinished to about the striking power
of 400 ton steam hammer.

The Death Of Theirs.
IN. o. Pieayune. Sci. 81


Louis Adolphe Theirs, ex-Presi-
dent of the Provisional Republic of
France, died suddenly from it stroke
of apoplexy at St. German, at 6
o'clock on Monday evening last. So
passed away one of the most eminent
journalists, authors and statesmen of
this century. His death is especially
significant, because it occurs at ii
critical juncture in French politics,
and deprives his country of the SER
vices and councils of its greatest ex
ponent of conservative republican;sm
at time when it is threatened with
tra-radicalism on the one hand, and
a lapse into monarchialism upon the
other.
Louis Adolphe Theirs was born in
Marseilles, April IS, 1897. At the
time of his death, therefore, he was
in his 8lst year. He WIS tue son of
poor parents of the artisan class, but
through the patronage and influence
of more influential relatives, secured
Thorough academic aud legal edu-
cation. In his 2Ith year he removed
to Paris, where lie became contribu-
tor to the Constitutional. His talent
and versatile information soon ac-
quired for him position in the front
rank of journalism, and in France
that species of success is a stepping
stone to political power. In 1872 he
gave to the world the last of bis ten
volumes Of the History of the French
Revolution. Having by his Journal
istic services contributed largely to
the success of the revolution OF 1880,
and to the elevation of the Duke of
Orleans to the throne, he WAS in that
year appointed to the position Of AS
sistant Secretary in the Department
of Finance. During the stormy reign
of Louis Philippe his political fortunes
| underwent many vicissitudes, and
after having advanced to the pre-
miership he finally found himself out
of office and i'll the opposition. In
the last days of the monarchy, how
ever, he remained faithful to the
King, and did what he could to stay
the tide of his disasters. In the pro-
visioDal government which sue
ceeded he took prominent part bat
after the establishment of the third
empire he occupied private station
for many years. In 1916 he published
his celebrated History of the Consul
late and Empire, a work which i'm
mediately made him famous il the
world of letters, and which secured
him the highest academic honors. In
the last years of the Empire he again
entered politics, and became prOmi-
nent as member of the opposition.
At the conclusion of the Franco Prus-
sian war he was made President OF
France, and it was under his rule
that the war indemnity was paid and
order restored. Subsequent events
necessitated his retirement from of
flee but he retained to the moment
of his death the confidence of his
countrymen.
