The New Constitution and Its
Adoption.

A great deal has been said i'm the
public press as to whether the adop-
ton of the new State constitution
should or should not be submitted
to vote of the people, some news
papers contending that the conven-
Ht5oh. as a sovereign body, has the
power and right to frame and adopt
the constitution, and others insist
ing that the convention can only
frame the constitution, and that'the
people only can adopt it.
1t is true, the convention is SOW
ereign, and ordinarily a State con-
yention may frame and adopt new
constitution, but the sixth section
of the act under which the cohvem-
ton was created and organized
Acts of 1879, No. B, page 12,-"An
act to provide for a Convention to
frame a new Constitution of the
State Of Louisiana, and making an
appropriation to pay the expenses
of the sameT) reads as follows:
"Sec. 6. Be it further enacted,
etc, That the Constitution framed
by said Convention shall be submit
ted to the people for their adoption or
rejection"
The Convention was created by
that act of the Legislature, and it
is automatic that the creature can
have no greater power thap its
creator.

STRANGE WEATHER.--So faf
April and March seem to have
changed places ON the calendar.
For the last twenty days we have
had cool days, and nights so cold
as to render fires necessary. kegG-
Lar March winds have prevailed
this week, and the clouds OF dust
have compelled merchants to keep
their doors closed most OF the time.
Cyclones and hail storms have Wis
tied various parts of the United
States during the last two weeks,
destroying life and property, aud
tue era of great atmospheric dis
taibaaees, predicted by astfono-
mers several months ago, seems to
have commenced. Ii is said these
disturbances will continue for seven
Years, being greatest in 1858.
Since writing the above a heavy
rain has fallen, commencing last
Wednesday evening and ending

Hurricanes In Florida.

On approach Of autumn the Floridiar
| 4uakcs with apprehension. 1t is the dread
ell season OF hurricanes. Tearing through
the West Indies, they often strike the consl
with deadly effect. With scarcely note
| of warning houses are overthrown, sail
boats blown from the water, and orange
groves swept bare OF leaves and fruit.
Some OF the old settlers say that thcy can
detect signs Of the storm u day before it
breaks upon them. "You fcol 1t in the air
long before it comes" says one. This is,
however, All indefinite sign.-Thc devast-
alton lingng its track certainly proves that
'you feel it in the air when comes. "
One of these typhoons visits the coast every
ycar.--Thc day may be bright and beauti-
ful, and the flowers heavy with bees and
hummlng birds. The mudhcns of the mar
shes pipe an alarm. Not blade Of salt
grass moves. The blue sky grows hazy,
and the eastern horizon Is milky white
Fitful gusts begin to ripple the water and
handle the green leaves. A low moan
comes from tho ocean. Smoky clouds roll
into the sky from the southeast, and IL
strong wind whitcns the rutilcd water.
Every minute it increases in fury. An omi-
nous yellow light tingcs the atmosphere.
The sun is gone, and. great drops OF rain
are hurled to the ground. Within fifteen
minutes there is gale, and soon the full
force Of the hurricane is felt. Great eagles
and pclicans arc swept through the heavens
utterly powcrlcss. Sparrows and other
small birds are lashcd to death by lcatlcss
twigs, and the torn bodies of snowy hcrons
and wild turkeys lodge in the branches Of
the live oak and cypress trees. All living
things disappear. pines are twisted
IN In />r,
olcandcrs snap like COW whips. Lofty
palmettocs bend their heads to the ground,
their great fans turned inside out like The
ribs Of al umbrella. .hc force of the wind
keeps the trees down until every grccu fan
pops like plstol-shot. Orange groves arc
ripped into shoe strings. The leaves of the
scraggy scrub on the beach arc wiped out,
and their stems whipped into little brush
cs. Tho tough saw palmetto is blown as
flat rs northern wheat field, and the dead
grass Of the savannus lashcd into fine dust.
Boards in the surf arc struck by wind, and
sent spinning hundreds of feet into the mir.
The sand dunes arc caught up bodily, and
slltcd through pine trees miles away. The
foam of the sea is blown beneath the houses
on the main land, and comes up between
the cracks OF the floor like steam. These
hurricanes last from seven to eight hours
even longer. During the luls rain falls in
torrents. The tide rises to great height,
carrying away wharvcs and boat houses,
and flooding the low country for miles.
The ocean leaps the sandy barriers Of the
coast, and floods the Indian and other salt
water rivers. involving great damage. After
the storm ccntrc-boartls and jib stays arc
found in spruce pines, olcantlcrs are loaded
with cordagc, and dead eyes and peak
blocks drop from lcailcss orange trees.
Gardens arc destroyed, fences swept away,
and the tormcntcd Floridan has three
months work and no pay to repair dam
ages.
