"CIRCU INSTANCES ALTER CASES. This
venerable maxim has never, we apprehend
been more remarkably exemplified than by
the late act o. The Alabama Legislature for
dividing that STATE into congressional dis
tricts.
Our readers are awSre that in apportion-
ing among the States tie number of repre-
sentatives in the Congress Of the United
States, to which they shall Lc severally en-.
titled the population of each .State Is to be
ascertained by adding TO the VIII ale number
of white persons three-fifths of the slaves.
In making their State DISTRICTS however,
for the election of their Congressional rep
resentatives, the Alabama Legislature ha We
arranged those districts on the basis OF the
white population only. If this is Just as be.
tween the respective districts of Alabama,
then the federal ratio, as it is called is
gross outrage on justice toward all the nom
slave-holding States. The heavy slave
holding districts of Alabama complain, it is
said, loudly, as well they may, if the fede-
raj ratio IS right Of this new districting act.

MR. CLAY AT JACKSON.

The reception at the Capitol of Missis-
sippI is represented TO have been grand and
imposing in high degree. He left at
Vicksburg by the railroad, accompanied by
delegation from Jackson,a large concourse
of citizens and the volunteer company Of
Vicksburg as an escort. At the depot near
jackson he was met by an immense assem-.
blage OF people, from all parts of the State,
numbering from four 10 six thousand per-
of all ages, sexes and conditions, by whom
he was conducted TO the large square in
front of the State House. Here he was
welcomed in neat speech by the Hon.
Daniel Mayes, to which he replied in an
address occupying in its delivery nearly an
hour.
His speech is spoken Of, in the New Or
leans Tropic, as one of his happiest efforts,
and was received with the most enthusiasts
tic plaudits. At the conclusion of his ad.
dress, he accepted an invitation from his
Excellency Gov. Tucker, to visit the Elk.

for the reception of visitors, where during
the day, he was called upon by thousands,
without regard to politics. Men of all par

talents and patriotism. and his visit is said
to have produced the kindliest feelings on
all sides. At night he attended ball pre-
pared at the theatre, which was graced by
a larger portion of the beauty and worth of
the State than is often seen congregated at
the Capitol. At ten o'clock, next morning
he took his departure for Vicksburg, and
was accompanied to the depot by crowd
scarcely smaller than that which the day
previous greeted him on his arrival. Wednes-
day night he attended splendid entertain.

residence in Vicksburg. and at IL o'clock
embarked in the steamer Vicksburg, Cap.

the kind wishes and fervent aspirations for
