Especial CORRESPONDENCE Of the Democrat


PLAouEMINE. October as. 1877.
Editor Denocrat-Bad weather Is again our
cry. 1t has been raining nearly all day here
without prospect of clear up: This is bad for
our sugar planters and sets back the already
injured prospects for a crop. Very few of those
who have star ted their mills in this section have
been able to make sugar so far, and the turn
out of syrup is poor. We hope for a mild win
ter that we may yet realize something of the
fine prospect for sugar we had last sum-
mer, but tn SO who have heavy crops cannot
risk the weather, and so must grind, good or
bad yield of syrup or sugar.

to change our constitution is the topic in the
minds of the Thoughtful now, but all are not of
one mind on the subject. No one denies the
necessity of new OF ganic law but many doubt
the need for an immediate change as many so
perslstently urge. That we need a convention
to effect this purpose Is also doubted.
However. think we need not be in as great q
hurry as one half Of those now clamorng for g
convention pretend. We need good laws. and
