Article thirty-two of the Constitu
tion of the 14th of January. 1852.
which, with the niodilicatioun of vari
ous Sen&tus CouMula, is the present
Constitution of France, runs as fol
lows: ' All modifications, in tbo
fundamental bases of the constitution
such as they were laid down in the
proclamation of the 2d of December
(1851),' and adopted by the French
people, shall be submitted to univer-
I Buflra-'e. This appeal to univer-
sai suurage is Known in i ranco ait a
. S ai m .
plebiscite, from the Latin compound
woru jifOitci-tum or jMbiMcuum a law
made by the common consent of the
ooilo, without the intervention of
the Senate or Lejnulative iiower.' The
articlo referred to occurs in chapter
lour oi toe Uonstttution, Umitiusr and
denning tuo powers of the Senate, by
which the especial guardianship of the
constitution is commuted to that body.
Article twenty-seven lor instance, says
that the Senate regulate by a Scnatut
LonnuUum " all that has not been pro
vided by the Constitution, and which
is necessary for its march," and " the
sense of articles of the constitution
which give rise to different interpreta
tions.
"The fondness of the Emperior for
the plcblmrue may be very easily ac
counted for. ' By tbia process be and
his uncle got all they ever acquired of
supremo power in x ranee. What his
special object in tbe present anneal
may be is not on the surface, but it
may be mentioned that tbe name of M.
Itouher, regarded as the MepbtHto of
the present situation, is at the foot of
the Constitution of 1852, and perhaps
he too, has constitutional scruples.
What if the vote is lent than the vote
of 18G2 ? What if the vote is advent?
Such considerations do not enter into
the theory of jAebinciteg. Since the ex.
ecution of Louis XVI, there has been
several appeals to the plebiscite in
France on constitutional points. The
first r was on the , constitution . of
1793, when the Mountain party hav
ing finally conquered the Girondists
in the Convention set about the com
pletion of the constitution which the
Girondists had begun, said to be the
handiwork of Condorcct., This con
stitution, which was filled ap with a
rapidity that contrasted with tne slow
ness of the tiirondiMte in elaborating
constitutions, regulated the number of
representatives in the National .Con
vention, ordered annual elections, and
established trial by jury. This con
stitution was submitted to a jMisdit,
and approved by 1,801,918. against
11,010 votes. The ardor of the con
vention in constitution buildinsr was.
however, greater ! than the desire to
pat the constitution into effect. This
constitution,' so approved, was in fact
never acted upon. Two years' after
wards, ' subsequent to the " death ' of
Robespierre and the downfall of the
Jacobins,' the National Convention
again applied itself to constitution
making. It employed upon the work
that experienced hand, Abbe Sieys,
with Camlwicere s and 1 others; and on
the 23d of June, 1795, thero was sub
mitted by Bubpt D Anghv a bran new
constitution. Ibis new constitution
created two chambers the Council of
the Ancients (250) and the Conncil of
Five Hundred, who in their turn elect
ed five persons, called the Executive
Directory, known as the French Di
rectory. This constitution also was
submitted to a plebiscite, and approv
ed oy i,uu,oou votes against iv.Jot.
More fortunate 'tnan- 'tne consti
tution of 1773, it did work. It endur
ed for four years till the famous 8th
Brumaire which brought on the scene
Napoleon Bonapart, who made very
short work of 'the Ancients, the Five
Hundred and the constitution. Na
poleon, in his turn, went to constitu
tion burning, and on the 10th of No
vember,' 1799, ' produced .his constitu
tion. -which provided, among other
things for the election of a Chief Consul
and two assistant Consuls. This like
wise was submitted to a plebiscite; and
approved by 3,911,000 votes against
1,569. 'The Consuls appointed, were
Napoleon Bonaparte i Cambaceres and
Lebrun. Three years afterwards, in
1802, iNapoleon was. appointed Consul
for the-term of ten years: and a :few
months subsequently - a plebiscite
made him Consul for life; by 3,568,185
votes , against .9,074. ?, Quickly- upon
the heels of the - life Consulate- came,
as we know, the hereditary-empire in
1804, when, again there was an appeal
to a plebiscite, not on the point wheth
er Napoleon r should -. be . jJmpror, . as
has. Wen often asserted, but with re
gard to the hereditary , succession.
The "yeas" to: this question were
3,321,675 : to ,2,599 noes.". , Once
more in 1851, on the acta additonal as
to the succession, there was a plebis
cite! But the star oi the, Emperor
had set; ,only 1,300,000. .votes were
cast in .the .affirmative and but 4,205
against., ,i .La ,(,;,, --. -n j-

ent Constitution was ratitied by 7 ,47.

253,145. : We can hardly wonder that
tne .mperor is enamored of the plan
which Las done so much for him,' 'and
that he will make a struggle to' retain
the power to resort to it when necessa
ry.; A very considerable party in 'the
Chambers is bent on destroying this
power of the Emperor to keep him
self . outside Of the 'Constitution.
France has just entered upon a ' Con

It in related of Bunyah, that in the
height of his nef ultie a a pruoehcr, in

metropolis had a curioity to co biin
Tbo coachman of the1 bishop' was a fre
quent hearer of Bunyan, and tbe bishop
had told him that whenever, in nditigoar
of town, he should chance to meet Mr.
Bunynn, ho wished to see and speak' with
him. One day a John waadrivin his lord
fthip in n portion of the suburbs snfficicot
ly retired for tho bishop to gratify hia- cu
rionity, Bunyan wa een plodding hi
way on foot, with his bundlo under hin
arm. goln to preach aotnewhrc in the
outskirts. 'Your grace, ayt' John
'here comes Mr. Bunyan." 'Ah said the
biithop, 'hold up the horses when vou
overrake hi.u and let tne speak to htm.'
They were very noon at his side, the hom-s
were checked and the biahop bowed, say
ing, Mr. Bcnyan I believe. 'Yes your
grtce, sayt Bunyan,' 'courteously repon
uing. Mr. Bunyan,' said tho bishop,
'I am told that you are ingenious a.i an
interpreter of rcripture : and I have a
difbcult pawage in nty mind, about which
the critic are in dipu(eh and. of which
would be glad to have your view. It
is Sli Paul's uiussogo to Timothy. 'Tlift
cloak that I left at Troo with Ctrpur,
when tbou corneal bring with thee; and
the books, especially tho parchments.'
Well, your grace,' replied Bunyan, 'it is
allowed, I believe, by nil that Timothy
was a bishop ef I he primitive church; and
Paul, at agreed, was a travcliog preacher.
It' occurs to ma that this may have been
designed, in future day, to teach that in
primitive ' times othe bishop wero accus
tomed to wait npon tho traveling pre jcb
en ; whereas, in our day. tbo biahopa ride
in their coocbes, . and the traveling
preachers, like Paul; aro 'minded to go

John Phornix tells how it was, as follows:
"I'll tell yon how it was. You tee. Bill

knife and it was gone, and I said, Bill,
you stoic my koile; ana be said i wa

said he was a liar, and I could whip him
if I was bicirer'u biro; sod Jie said he
would rock mo to sleep, mother, and 1
said he was a bigger one : and be said I
never had the measles; and I said for
him to fork orer that knife of I'd fix him
for a tombstone on Laurel Hill : and he
said my grandmother was no gentleman;
and I said be dartn't take it op, but he
did you bet; then 1 got up again, and
he tried io. but he didn't; and I grabbled

got up behind liill and bit him; and Bill
kicked at the dog, and tho r!og ran, and
I ran after tho dog to fetch him back:

In the century which has since elapsed
the methods and instruments of oberva:

modern astronomy nay be, regarded. as
now about to have its first opportunity of
studying one of the most, significant ind
fruitful events that ever recur, in the
heavens. The vexed question of the dis
tance of the sun from, the earth will, it is
hoped, be settled more accurately than
ever before by tho . next transit. The
English government will spend more than
fifty thousand dollars in, expeditions to
favorable points in tho southern hemis

assembled in the large hall, smok
ing, btrutting, crocking jokes, and
otherwise lndulcnng in tbe etceteras
of the day. Boyden was at the bar
examining the books, and doubtless
making calculations respecting his fu
turo prospects. Jefferson had deliv
ered his hona' into the band5 of the
hostlor, and walked into the tavern in
order to make arrangemelibf in regard
to bis fare. , Some one touched. -Bor
den on the. elbow, and directed, his
atlentirn to the stranger .who stood
with his whip in hand, striking it bor
casionally upon his muddy leggins.
Boyden turned around and- surveyed
him from head to foot, and conclud
ing him to be an old farmer from the
country,' whoe company would add
no credit to bis house, he said abrupt
ly. . ., . . : . '

.Jefferson did not hear the remark.
and asked if he could be accommodat
ed with a room. His voice; which
was commanding and attractive, oc
casioned another survey of his person
by tne honest proprietor of the house,
whose only care was for its reputation.
He could not find, however, in'-bin
plain dress, pretty well covered with
mud, anything indicating either
wealth or distinction, and in his usual
rough style, be said:
A room?" ..''.; H
Jefferson replied. 'Yes. sir. I should
bke to have a room to mvself if I can
feet it?'

Gentleman f said Boyden, ;
There has been no gentleman here
on horseback this . afternoon,' and no
stranger at ally but one common coun
try looking fellow, who came in and
asked if be could have a whole room,
bat I asked ' him 'out of - that' mighty

room for such cnaps as rum. -, ;- ;
' Jo room for such chaps as him ?
No, by the pipers," ho' room for

..'Why, what are you talking about
man? He's the Vice President of the

breathless in astonishments 3

like a madman, and went fifty times to
the door o see if hia wished for guest

rode tip Market street where he wag
recognised by : many: of his acquaint
