ALBANY Thursday Aug. 10, ~
The third day Of the Session has closed, and the
sum of its labors is the report of the Regency bill
TO Gerryrnander the State 1t allows the Wings
10 TO Ia of the 81 Members. Of the election had
been held under it last year, we should have hao
sepea) 1t is just as unfair and partial as 1t can
be made, picking out the Wing Counties and I'LL.
ing them up, wherever they cannot be snlothered
Not a Loco-Foco County in the State or Ward in
the City is put in Wing District, while ours are
used up wherever it is possible. The Districts
blocked out for the City are not only unacceptable
to us, but to the Loco.Foco also. The indications
of dissatisfaction are not confined to few. Wash
ington and Essex hanging together by a thread and
forming an irregular District nearly or qaites
hundred miles long, are packedi District in order
to preserve the ad iacent Counties from their Wing
virus, and thus do US out of Member. Herkimer,
Hamilton and Clinton form q District at least l3U
miles long, and which cannot be traversed In three
DAYS, nor by any roads in less than 2V0 miles.
Against such q conjunction L understand eOery
Member from the District protests. But Mr. Hal
sew Rogers, who fathers the bill, must have War
rem with his own Saratoga to save it from Wing
gerry, and the party will probably oblige him al
ary cost to the People. The destruction OF Erie
County is perhaps the most outrageous feature o.
this bill Erie had in 1910 over62, 0Oo inhabitants
and will have $4,000 before l345. 1t has most
vital local interests to be upheld or crushed al
Washington, and ought never to be without a Mem
Der of Congress. 1t has strong claim to form e
District of itself. Yet this grea. County is hacked
into three pieces, and attached to three different
Districts. in such way that it can hardly ever
have a Member Buffalo is discovered from Its
own County, and attached by neck of land to Ma
rara and Orleans with which its whole trade will
amount to $4,000 per amman! This is madness.
But Erie has no Loco-Foco IN the Legislature,
and must take such fare is sent her. shall not
be surprised to see the bill put through without the
alteration Of comm, in defiance OF the very
strong repngnance both to its matter and the man
ner of its concocnoa.
In the Senate, this day was devoted to SHARP
debate on the disposition of the Erie Railroad and
various matters pertaining thereto, founded on ~
concurrent resolution introduced and called up BY
Mr.. FAULKsER (Loco) ins,ructing the Comptroller
to Postpone the Sale ofthe Erie Railroad till after
the next meeting Of the Legislature If thisis not
creeping out at the little end of the horn, know
not what would be. But little as it is tho Re
gency sickle at its passage, though presume they
will let it go through at last. But Mr.. Dickinson
CA. r. not D. S. the Loco candidate for Lieut.
Governor, who is no longer in the Senate) exposed
the utter no,hingness of this proposition most ct
fectually, though he said he should vote for it,
shadow as it is. Mr.. HUNTER unbosomed hisp
fundity to express his adherence of the idea OF
Mr. Dickinson that the Comptroller would not be
permitted to sacrifice this Railroad. Finally, the
whole subject was laid over till tomorrow, when
resolutions by Gen. RooT in support OF the Land
Distribution; by Mr.. DICKINSON, in favor of a
Protective Tariff, and by Mr.. FuRMAN, in favor Of
considering the state of our unfinished Public
Works, viii be in order. Lexpect to see them all
laid on the table by party vote. Mr.. Faulkner
moonshine resolution viii probably pass.
In the Assembly, the Speaker has decided thai
petitions cannot be received at this Session, and
the decision is now under review en- appeal. Al
the Erie Railroad men who are in earnest willvott
against the decision, since it was made on a Rail
road petition, and made to shut out Railroad pc
ti,ions. Still, l think the Speaker will be sus.
tanned by close vote.
The Senate has proposed and the House refused
a Joint Committee on the Apperronment and the
latter will go ahead with the Regency bill on It's
own hook The alterations proposed by the Wing
minority of the Committee have not yet been pub
lished. But it is of very little consequence what
they are.
The debate on the appeal viii be continued to-
morrow morning, Mr. O'SuLLIvAN having the
floor. Mr.. HorrMAN's an,i-Inprovemenr TRADE
viii be answered, l presume, either by Mr.. SIN
MONS or Mr. SMITH of Genesee. The Session is
net nearly through yet. II. q.
