The District Bill.

The Legislature has at length agreed upon
Bill to district the State for the election of MEM
bers of Congress. 1t contains provision Tor twen-
" four districts, each of which is entitled to one
member. Monroe, we perceive, is severed from
her old connexions and hereafter is to be united In
a district with Luzerne, Pike, Wayne and Wyo-
ming. Old Northampton is attached to Bucks.
The city and county Of Philadelphia, are allowed
four members. If the Bill should receive the sig
nature of the Governor, or otherwise become
law, we will immediately publish it entire.

The interest which was due on the State Debt,
on the lst inst. has not yet been paid, nor is it
likely to be soon. We learn, however, that our
wise ones in the Legislature, for fear that the
term Of regulators might attach 10 them, pass
ire an Act, by which the holders Of Stock will re-
ceive Certificates bearing per cent. interest. in
lieu of the Cash. In all cases where the amount
Of interest does not exceed $50, the holders are
to be paid out of any money which may be in he
State Treasury.
