THE election of members for the
Constitutional Convention which,
we presume, will be called by the
Legislature for some time in the
coming Summer, will be the next
important matter that will engage
the attention of the voters of Cali
fornia. Whether there will be
partizan nominations or not will
depend upon the action of the chiefs
of the two great political parties.
The tendency in many Of the great
States, of late, has been to disre-
gard party lines in these nomina-
tions, each party taking half of the
members, and each putting forth
its best men, without reg ard to
their political activity. This was
tho rule in the last Constitutional
Convention in both New York and
Pennsylvania. Owing to the
absence of this distinctively politi-
cal complexion, the last Constitu-
tional Convention which assem-
bled in the latter State developed a
remarkable degree of harmony,
and the politics of its members
could not be inferred from their ac-
ton on any question. Many radi-
cal reforms were made in the old
State Constitution, and probably
no body ever served the people of
Pennsylvania so we'll. Such re-
suits, however, are only brought
about by concert of action amongst
the party leaders, and as yet it Is
not even certain whether a Con-
stitutional Convention will be
called, many holding that the ma
jority for the measure was not such
as the law contemplates. The gen.
eral impression is, however, that
the Legislature will make provis-
ion for its assembling. Many
very important questions will come
before it, principally under the
heads OF corporations and irriga-
ton. Probably the question of
corporate rights and privileges,
their obligations to the people and
the powers which created them,
have been more exhaustively dis
cussed during the past five years,
not only in the State of California,
but in all parts of the United
States, than in any twenty years
of our history.

WELLocK, in his testimony be-
fore the jury, said that he had
never heard Kearney use the word
s'hemp." Wellook must have
closed his ears very discreetly not
to have heard this word fall from
Kearney's lips. He talked so
much about hemp in his speech In
Los Angeles that he left little room
for anything else but stuff about
"quailn brigades and profanity in
speaking Of every one who differed
with him In opinion. Ksarney
himself, when brought face to face
with the penalties of the law in the
Cour. room, said thatlhe used these
expressions in q "metaphorical"
sense. Such figures Of speech are
very damaging and disagreeabls,
however, whether used in a Pick
wickian sense or not. The Argo-
nuut says that Mr.. Mark Hop
kins has stopped work on =
magnificent residence which was
under way in San Francisco,
and Mr.. Flood, Of the
firm Of Flood & O'Brisn, has
postponed the building Of resi-
dence which was to exceed any
thing known hitherto on the Paci.
&c Coast. Both these gentlemen
allegs, ~ the ground Of their &C.
ton, that they want to know what
they have to expect. Such a state
OF things reacts against the honest,
industrious workingman. A mob
of eight to ten thousand men. such
as once assembled near Crocker's
house, on Mob Hill, and such as
assembled regularly on the Sand
Lots, until Mayor Bryants procla.
nation appeared; mob which re.
oelves propositions of violence, in.
cendiarism and Wholesale hanging
with apparent approval, can bring
o great city to a standstill in a few
weeks. Every days continuance
of such reign of terror would
probably witness the with dra wal
of large sums Of money from San
Francisco to places of greater Sc.
curity, and the workingman would
find himself about as badly dam
aged as the capitalist, or, rather,
more so, for the capitalist, though
his means might be diminished,
would still be able to command the
luxuries of life.

Pacific Coast News.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 21st.-The
situation at the various savings
banks remain unchanged, except
that, at the Odd Fellows Bank,
the demand for withdraw walls has
fallen OF considerably, although
tho bank is still paying out con-
stantly. The rush at the Clay
Street Bank remains about the
same. Other banks report a slight
increase over ordinary drafts but
nothing of consequence.
Over 1000 men have applied for
work at the filling in of Mission
Bay to-day. About $50 have been
set at work thus far and others will
be put on as rapidly as possible.
Notes Concsrnisg sho Working.
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 21.-At the
Workingmen's meeting In Oak
land, yesterday, the speeches made
were moderate in tone, the speak
ers holding, in effect, that, while
they endorsed Kearney's move
ment, they were not prepared to
endorse the extreme violence of his
course. They also regretted his ar
rest, ~ 1t compelled them, in self
defence, to support him more fully
than under ether circumstances.
The Call tomorrow will publish
interviews with Governor Irwin,
Mayor Bryant, Kearney and 9TH
ers. With regard to the riot bill,
the Governor stated that he signed

Pasha.
BERLIN, Jan. 21st.-If the report
that Sulieman Pasha has reached
Drame should prove correct he oan
take his army, which is believed
to be not less than $4,000 men, to
the sea by shore march and thence
secure transportation to Gallipolis
or Constantinople. His escape
through the Rhodope mountains
does not appear in itself improba.
BILE, and 1t now seems that the
force which the Russians were able
to place across his path west of
Adrianople consisted entirely of
cavalry, which could destroy his
communications aud cut off his
supplies, but could not seriously
impede his march eastward or
southwark. However, the news of
Sulieman's safety is unconfirmed.
The rumor comes from Constanti-
nople, whore they would be likely
to get the report.
