\ synopsis of the meteorological report
for Cheyenne for the month ofJuly. 1885.

Barometer-Mean pressure for the
month corrected for temperature and ele-
%vationl, 29sl. Highest barometer for
the month, 29.96, on the 9th; lowest,

Such a similitude Of pressure has never
occurred IN this vicinity, and Gthe memo
ry of the present observer serves him
right, such phenomenon has not occurred
in the United States within the past six
years. The uniformity OF pressure would
naturally prevent strong winds and hearv

AN EXPOSITION ROMANCE.
A Turkish Exhibitor Becomes In
fatuated With a Louisville
Beauty.

The Louisville Post gives the fol-
lowing account ofa sensation in that
city: "An Exposition sensation is
gently and gradually developing, the
denoument being probably only a
short distance in the future. Amongst
the several Turks who are connected
with the exhibits at the show is one
who was here last year. lie is clas.
sical-looking fellow, Of regular fea-
lures, handsome form and graceful
carriage. lie dresses in the unique
costume Of his own country, but has
learned to speak English so well as to
be pretty well understood. He pos
sesses unusual intelligence, and is
rapidly becoming Americanized. lie
is YOUNG and full of life, and is
not at II unattrat tive in his appeal.
ance. During the Exposition of last
year, lie formed the acquaintance of
a down town young lady, who lives
on West Chestnut street. lie was
connected with one of the displays.
and she, perhaps amused, ifnot graf
flied, at his evident and undisguised
admiration, made 1t convenient to
pass his exhibit very frequently, Of
ten stopping to examine his wares.
His black eyes sparklcd with delight
whenever she appeared, and finally,
when she dared TO ask him some tri-
vial question concerning some article,
his agitation and embarrassment
were eXtravagant. lie at length
gained control over his emotions, and
was so courteous and bright that the
young lady became interested. The
next day she came back again. The
same programme was enacted, and
day after day The two were seen cx-
amining the Turks display. They
exchanged cards. and lie obtained
leave TO call at her home to see her.
lie made her a number of very
unique and costly presents, and when
he left Louisville for the New Orleans
exposition, correspondence was
opt up between them. Since his rt-
turn to Louisville the acquaintance
has been renewed and the devotion
of the dusky Oriental is more markt d |
than ever. A friend of the young |
lady states that her family have lc-
come aware Of the situation and are
violently opposed to it, though the
ultimate elopment and marriage of
the couple is confidently predicted.
The young lady is connected with
some of the best people in the city,
and is accomplished and beautiful.
She is regular graduate of cple-
brated Eastern female seminary, is o
fluent French scholar and is one Of
the best pianists in Louisville. Her
father is well-known merchant and
she is not without prospect of com
ing into possession of a fair share of
this worlds goods. Her family had
hoped that the recent stay of the
Turk in New Orleans would cure
the young lady of her somewhat ro-
mantle infatuation, but are now con-
Vinced that she is very much inter-
cstcd in her Ottoman admirer.

THE STATE CONSTITUTION,
The Plan Of a Senator for Secur-
ing a Revision.

BARBoURvILLE, Ky, Sept. Ito
the Editor: approve ofthc editorial
in The Commercial of August 30 on
"The Power of the People," Repre-
senting the Seventeenth district in
the State Senate, shall favor a SOW
erelgnty convention to change our
constitution. On the fourth day of
the last session of the Legislature |
offered in the Senate the following
joint resolution, viz:
WHEREAS, All power is inherent
in the people, and all free govern
ments are fouaded on their authority
and instituted for their peace, safety,
happiness, security and protection of
property, and for the advancement of
these ends they have at all times an
inalienable and indefeasible right to
alter, reform or abolish their govern
ment in such manners as they think
proper; therefore, be it
ReSolUed By the General ASSEMBLY
Of the CommOptCeait of KentuckV,
That a committee, to be composed of
eleven members, five to be named by
the Speaker Of the Senate and six by
Speaker of the House, be appointed
to draft and report for the cOnsidera-
ton of this General Assembly a con-
stitution of this Commonwealth,
which shall be submitted to the vo-
ters thereof for their approval, in
such manner as may herafter be pro-
vided for. ...
| moved that said resolution be
printed and placed in the orders of
the day, whereupon the yeas and nays
were demanded by Senators Smith
and Green. Pending the call, an I'M
friendly disposition being shown to
having the resolution printed, and
not wishing so soon to provoke dis
cussion in an assembly wherein
was new member and an entire
stranger, the resolution was with
drawn by me and never again intro.
duced. 1t twill be found on page 40
of the Senate journal.
Perhaps the better way to get
new constitution will be by sover-
eighty convention than by the plan
suggested by my resolution; but the
sooner we get one the better will it be
for our State. .i"ad..
l write this thinking that other
members of the next General Assem-
bly, may think proper to indicate
their views upon this question
the press, whereby the mat
Ter will be directly called to this at
tention of every member before the
shall have met, thus Civ
ing all an opportunity TO study well
what action may be necessary for the
good of our State. 4ri
