CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS.
MOB.
CALVIN GOODMAN,
Clerk.

Among the circumstances which intiu-
cnccd the minds of those who voted in
favor of the amendments rather than for
q constitutional convention l ought to
have mentioned two which had more or
less weight, one was this.
The impression was quite Il general one
that the convention advocates were more
or less opposed to the policy followed by
Gov, Nichols in his administration, and
that if Il convention were called an at
tempt would be made TO get rid of the
Gov. by new election. 1t is but just to
saw that some ut least of tho leading con-
vention men denied this charge, but
th,r. is no doubt that in private con-
vcrsation, there were remarks made
which aroused fears in the minds of
tho Governors; friends and made them
oppose any measure which would III the
! least causc uneasincss on this question.
The tre;. t,nent by Gov. Nichols OF the
republicans though in accordance with
his declared intentions, at the time OF
| his nomination had given great dissatis-
| faction to the extreme men OF the Dem
ocratic party, and they took no pans to
| conceal their hostility. Aud it SO hap
pencd that these extremists were also
the most earnest and persistent advocates
of Il convention.
The other consideration to which lc-
ferrcd was this. Those who favored a
convention let fall remarks in debate and
in private conversation y hich lead to
the belief that should i convention he
called the question of the validity OF
portion, and quite {; large portion OF the
bonded debt of the state would be IN
CURED into, greatly to tho the injury OF
those who had invested their money III
state securities. True, the convention
men said they did not propose to inter
fere with any of the honest debts OF the
state. but although this might be thell
intention yet it was feared that if a state
should so far disregarded its solemn
pledges made to her creditors, who hat
agreed to rclinquish forty per cent o.
their claims, and afterward to raise Tho
question of the ralidiy of a part OF tho
debt, she might find some excuse for get
ting rid of the whole deot anu 50 thf
bond holding interest, of the state were
found in opposition to q state copvon
ton. The monied men of New Orlean:
had contributed largely of their means
during the campaign of 1876, and they
had a right upon this ground even, to h'
heard upon questions of policy cttectlns
their interest. Then again owing to tn
failure of the sugar crop of last year
heavy losses had been entailcd uron TIN
merchants, and II condition OF hnanci;l
distress prevailed at our commercial cen
far which Threatened the most disastrou
consequences, and prudent men Opposed
any policy, not absolutely necessar
which might add to the prevailing dls
tress. u. II. L.
