FIorida's constitutional Conye

FlOrida's Constitutional Convention.
The convention called to frame a new
constitution for Florida will meet to-mor.
row. 1t is expected that it will complete
its work in about six weeks. 1t is hardly
probable that it will get along so rapidly
with its work as it would If it met at a
season when cooler weather prevailed.
There is no reason to think that the
great majority of those who have been
chosen delegates have not a very clear
appreciation of the great responsibility
resting upon them. 1t is probable, of
course, that there are a few who will not
permit their duties to interfere to any
great extent with their pleasures, and
there are some, doubtless, who haven't
the capacity to render any valuable as.
sistance. There are plenty Of members,
however, who are able and willing to do
the work which the convention has been
chosen to do, and the people of Florida
believe that they viii do it satisfactorily.
The condition of affairs in Florida is
different from that of every other South
ern state. The sentiment that makes it.
self felt in the direction OF State, county
and municipal affairs is not wholly South
ern. For years there has been steady
increase in the number of new settlers in
the State from the North. 1t is not only
possible, but it is extremely probable,
that the number of Northern immigrants
to Florida next year will be greater than
it was last year, and that before many
years there will be entire communities in
different parts of the State composed
wholly of Northern people.
1t is important, therefore, that the
new constitution shall be so liberal
in Its provisions that it will in
vite immigration. Florida has no
occasion TO fear that the negro will
| ever secure control OF affairs in that State.
/ The white immigration is so great. and
/ will continue to be so great, that there is
no probability that the negroes will ever
outnumber the whites, even if it is adj
mtted that they increase faster than the
whites.
or course those who are directing the
distinies OF Florida realize the Importance
OF putting nothing in the constitution
that VIII check the flow of capital and im-
migration into the State. On these two
things the growth and prosperity Of Florida
to certain extent depend.
The proceedings of the convention will
be watched closely not only by those who
live in the State but by those in all parts
OF the country who have interests there, OF
who are thinking about making thir
homes there. IL Is TO be hoped that the
new constitution, when framed, will moi
prove TO be a disappointment.

The use of captive balloons for recon-
noitering purposes by the British in the
Soudan is looked upon by some our eX-
changes as a progressive sUep in the art
Of war, and 1t is expected that balloons
will come into universal use in future
wars, not only for lOokOuts, but for active
military operations. The use Of balloons
in war is not new by any means. They
were used in our civil war, and in the
various wars of Europe since that time.
During the seige Of Paris they were the
only means of communication between
the city and the provinces, and they were
dispatched almost with the regularity Of
line of steamers.
Experimental balloons designed to
carry explosive bombs to be dropped on
cities, ships, ETC., are being manufactured
both iE this country and in Europe, but it
is doubtful if they will be made very
effective in the near future.
Ballooning is yet in its infancy notwith-
standing the alleged great progress made
in the past few years, and until some
effective mode Of propelling and guiding
them is devised, they will be compare
hNCi1 ubClGoo AOI ucdIly ali pIdSJACdi
purposes.
They will doubtless be used to some ex-
tent, but guns will soon be invented
especially designed for defense against
balloons. A globe-sighted rifle Of one
inch bore, made to use hot shot, and hay
ing range of two or three miles, could be
made so light as to be easily carried on
horse. Mounted on tripods a half dozen
of these guns could defend an army
against any number of captive or free
balloons.
1t may we'll be imagined that few men
would be found so brave as to go over n
hostile army in a balloon with hot shot
flying thick and fast about it.
The idea of balloons being effective in
military operations against a civilized
enemy is fanciful one. 1t will have to
take its place with that of submarine
boats to be used at long distances. Sub
marine torpedo boats have been used,
but they have never been constructed so
as to give promise of being every effective
