There is a great deal of talk.

country papers in regard to the
question OF constitutional Con.

convention, and there is no evil
vOr of such Il scheme at present.
Nothing of the kind is pe.cepti.

Is 1t at all probable that a re-
Spectacle minority of the people
have any wish to see such a call
lnade by the present Legislature.
There is peace and quiet reign
ing supreme IN this part of the
State, only great reasons should
influence any action to disturb
that harmony.
The Sugar crop has been "a
disastrous failure. Planters mnst
devote their entire time and at.
