What reading level is A Treatise On Constitutional Conventions : Their History, Powers, And Modes of Proceeding book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The revised Constitution of New Hampshire of 1783, " was introduced at Concord by a religious solemnity ; " and that of Pennsylvania of 1790, by an imposing procession of all the officers of the State, the members of the Convention, and of the civic societies of Philadelphia, in the course of which the Constitution was formally proclaimed at the Court- House in Market Street.
The above were all instances of Constitutions put in opera- tion without submission, except that of New Hampshire of 178...3. Where submission to the people has been made, the course very generally adopted has been to require the returns of the election to be made from the several districts to the Secre- tary of State, to be canvassed by him and the other great offi- cers of the State, often in the presence of such citizens as may choose to witness the proceeding ; and, finally, the results of the canvass have been announced to the people by a proclamation of the Governor — the Constitutioa thereupon taking effect as such.^ In many cases the Constitution has required that the people should vote for or against the Constitution, and, if there should be a majority for it, the Governor should make proclama- tion of that fact, but provided no mode of certifying the returns of the election to that officer.* In the Virginia Conventions of 1829 and 1850, and in that of Maryland of 1864, provision was made merely for a proclamation of the result of the election by the governor.^ 1 Thia course was pursued in the following Conventions:— New York, 1821 ; Louisiana, 1844, 1852, and 1864; Illinob, 1847 and 1862; Michigan, 1850; California, 1849; Tennessee, 1834; Ohio, 1860; and Oregon, 1867.
