Correspondence of the Democrat.l
PIAQuEM1NE. July 20, 1870


PLAquEM1NE, July 20, 1870.
Pursuant To announcement from Republi-
can quarters meeting convened here satur-
day afternoon to hear Messrs. Allain, David
son and Stevenson, late delegates from our
parish, upon the result OF the Convention.
Only Mr. Allan appeared, and he addressed
d good number Of his constituents on the re-
suits accomplished, which he seemed to con-
slider quite favorable In many respects TO his
race.
The constitution ID favorably received, and
can add would have been more 30 had the
debt question been fixed In 1t at ita face and
per cent, etc, interest. The people feel that
100 men, having the means for ell necessary
Information at hand and the authority to pro-
cure 1t, could better settle the debt question
than the 100000 voters OF the State many Of
whom feel q doubt about The business Of large
proportions Of this same debt.
We have rumors Of Kansas fever here. Ennis
81 the parish, but 50 far / have heard Of but
two departures. Some few Of our colored
people may be fooled Into going to Kansas,
but the number will not affect things here
much. The eulnred man can do better In this
section than In KANSAS and those who may 90
10 that prairie Wild country will find 1t out to
their sorrow.
We are having favorable weather for the
cane and II Ii growing finely.
IA sad thing occurred lii the parish Of West
Baton konge, Just above our section, last
Sunday. Some young men went into the
river To bathe and one, Ii seems, got out Into
the current, and feeling that he might not
yet u shore, called for help. Two young men
started to his aid. What assistance they rem
dered him ID not stated, but he got to Shore
while bis two companions. who went 50
promptly to his assistance were drowned.
Yours truly, PELICAN.

[Oaloasieu Ecllo.l !.


The new constitution provides that the dis
triet judges shall be elected by the people,
except In the parish Of Orleans, where they
shall be appointed by the Governor. The New
Orleans DEMOCRAT complains. and we think
justly, Of this discrimination between the
country and city judges. It Is as true as re-
markable that, notwithstanding there is
probably as much selfish, political wire-woTk
ing in New Orleans MS In any other city OF it's
size, the district judges In that city, elected
by the people, are almost Invariably men Of
marked ability and high judicial integrity.
The people of New Orleans are just as con-
petent and Just as disposed to elect able and
good judges as are the people OF the country
parishes. We are inclined to think an APP
pointive superior to an elective judiciary
system, but II the country is to elect It's dis
trict judges, New Orleans should have the
same privilege. We have frequently ex-
pressed our disapproyal Of any political
measure tending to array one section OF the
State against another, and we regret this pro-
vision Of our new constitution as calculated to
array the city against the country on future
questions Of politics.
