forthccming. There has Just died IN the Rue
de Rivoh certain n Boruiche, who turns
cut to have had in his possession 20 fewer
than 1900. modern pictures. N. Bouiche
was a retired timber merchant and had made
4 great fortune. he seems to have been pos
ssssed By perfect mama for canvas. Quantity
with him went before quality He offered,
therefore, a valuable market for young strug-
riTig artists, who, il is said, rarely appealed

them guilty of any act of malfeasance, but
have found nothing to create in this com
mittee's mind suspicion OF any such mis-
conduct, and therefore take pleasure in
fully generating them from any such i'm
putation." Now in point of law the re-
port of the committee did set forth an in
dictable ma'feasance when it stated that
sin many items of expenditure the COM
missioners have failed to take vouchers for
the same" because the law has expressly
and positively inhibited the commission
ers from allowing any claim against the
county for which legal voucher shall not
be presented To allow this law to be dis
regarded is to open a door to wholesale
frauds. Now we submit that the commit
tee and the grand jury would have incur
red no risk of converting themselves into
political machine" by calling attention
in the shape OF gentle reproof and eau
tionary warning, to those things of which
Mr.. Franklin could not approve or en-
dorse and to that most grave irregularity
of disbursing public money without tax
ing vouchers; and in our humble iudg-
ment that course would have been more in
keeping with The true dignity and proper
office of the grand inquest of the county
than. in the face of these facts, to take
pleasure in fully generating them from
any suspicion of misconduct"
1t is to be regretted that Mr.. Franklin
after writing so much, has said so little
by way of explanation of the points in the
report of the committee to which we took
exception. We had hoped he would tell
US something about the extraordinary
emergencies of the contingent fund for
1882" which necessitated so large an ex-
penditure during that year, but he is Who'll
ly silent upon the matter. He promises
however. to have something further to say
and We hope we may have some light on
that subject yet.

other section of the State in parting
with the present judiciary system, in
our humble judgment the time has not
arrived for the people to enter upon the
work of remodeling the Constitution of
the Sta'e. We think there are grave rea-
sons of wholly bipartisan character why
the question should not now be submitted.
1t has been justly said that the Constitu-
ton of 1864 was purely revolutionary in
its character, and the reactionary change
of 1867 was not entirely free from that
character, and this he's been urged as rea-
son why the proper balance of government
should be now restored in the shape of a
remodeled constitution. These very rea-
sons in our judgment point to 1887 as a
better time than now for a new Constitu-
ton
