gress may be composed Of such materials as will
refuse seats to our two members without any
hesitation, and then where will be the plea Of
Imconstitutionality which is now urged to pre-
vent the proper superintendent of the Statep
The truth is, the objection is feigned one
it is NOT the real reason for opposition TO an ex-
ira session of the Legislature, and it might as
well be avowed first as last. The real ground
of opposition is to a change of the present Con-
gresSionat Districts, by which the Wings have
scarcely any chance of electing a Repre-
sentative, if the Locofocos get together again
and hang together. They are great Democrats,
these Locofocos, but they never hesitatcd to sti-
he the popular voice, when it was likely not to
enure to the advantage of the party. They
gerrymandered this State, ten years a:o, so
shamefully as to cut off the Wings from any
chance of obtaining solitary Representative,
and now they would continue this system, all
though its injustice is so great that it cannot be
defended. They think this the most important
feature of thequestOn, altogether, and wish to
nulify the right of representation, by putting it
into the scales against few paltry dollars and
cents, which it would cost to summon the Legis-
ature for week or so.--[St. Louis Repubs

with the body of old Mr.. Gorsuch, which WIS
buried yesterday afternoon.
The funeral took place from his late residence
on the York road, and was attended by a large
concourse of persons from all parts of the sur
rounding country, by whom he was greatly es-
teemedand respected. He was shot in the left
breast, the ball entering short distance above
the heart whilst the surrounding parts were
completely riddled with shot, with which the
gun had also been heavily loaded. The negroes
who were active in the afTray are said to have

The Extra Session,

The Missouri Courier is the only paper IN
the State that has adopted the idea of the TINES,
in regard to the election 81 'lV sI hn election of
five members under the old superintendent and
looks to the Legislature to authorize the
election of two members by general ticket, at
subsequent period 1t is admitted that there l;
is a law of Congress which requires the election
Of Representatives to be by 7single districts,
and that this law would apply in this case but
il is said thai it is unconstitutional and nullty'
There is not lawyer in the Union, who would
for fee, risk his professional reputation upon
such an opinion, if he valued that reputation at
all. II is true, that a party majority in the
House Of Representatives, when they found il
necessary ror party purposes, to disregard this
law, did do so but no one ever supposed, for Il
moment, that this decision had any binding
force on a future Congress, or made the law mn
constitutional Its effect was, to nuillty the
law and admit partizans to seats who had nc
right there hut nothing more. The next Con
