All these States elect representatives to
Congress this year. The Legislatures of Cali

New York. Pennsylvania, Vermont, and Wis
consin, each choose United States Senator also,
at their next meeting. New Hampshire will
elect two or try for it,; but her State electt n

of Mr.. Williams, however, from his seat in the

as Mr.. Phelps, of Vermont, was declared to be.
may induce the Governor to call q special ele 4
ton to fill the vacancy. Every man that can
be had may, perhaps, be wanted in the Senate,
to vote, next December, for the proposed war
with Spain.
In Iowa, whose congressional and legislative
elections come of tomorrow, the democracy are
somewhat crippled by the Nebraska bill and the
administration; but still they seem to be in
good spirits. The opposition there have always
been in feeble minority. In California the
administration has effected sort Of New York
feud among the democrats, and the result is
doubtful. In Vermont and Maine the anti
administration coalition will, no doubt, sweep
the field. In Pennsylvania the Cabinet, the
7 htcHen Cupnet, anu the example VI New
hampshire, have been weakening the
spirit and the harmony of the democrats, and
the opposition are priching up their ears and
marsballing for the fight as if confident of q
great victory. In Ohio, we venture to say that
scarce vcstige Of the democratic party will be
left to tell the tale of the October election and
the expiring glories of the administration. In
Indiana, Of late years almost overwhelmingly
democratic, there are ny mptoms of an approach

IL is matter u Indifference whether the wings
coalesce with, or cut loose from, the free soiers

New York is about as likely to sustain the
administration as Vermont We should not
wonder at il at all if the next Congress were to
be left without solitary democratic member
from the Empire State. New Jersey is not safe;
Illinois may require il OF Judge Douglas to
stump the State from stem to stern; Michigan
Is in mutinous condition, and the Germanic
forces OF Wisconsin are reported to be in arms
against the administration spoilsmen.

The SENATE HOMESTEAD BILL AND THE SOUTH

of the House, as transmogrifed by the Hunter
amendment Of the Senate. 1t provides cond.

road jobbers, for reduction and graduation of
the prices per acre, and {br farms to actual set

were pronounced by the Rev. Mr.. Mccarthy, who
said that his country might well mourn his loss,
for he sacrificed al In its service. He would not
venture TO depict the loss to his family-God alone
could give them strength and console them under

the votes Of the people," He is anti Nebraska

choice discoveries which he has recently made
he has reproduced the following extract Of

ton Senator in Congress,) to the Hon. John
Cochrane, and bearing the date Of July 49, 1S4s
the time when Master Cochrane was chairman
of the Van Buren, Free Soil Central Committee

Mr.. Petit then said:

OF mine shall knowingly be given to polute the

letters which our enterprising Surveyor Of the
Port has in his possession, including the great

has failed in the House. Before the meeting
of the next session, with few more such trench
ant blows at the democratic log-rollers Of Con-
gress as those administered upon this Homestead
question by the Richmond Examiner, we shall
probably begin to see the work of fumigation,
publication, and reorganization Of the demo.
cratic party fairly commenced with reference
to the campaign Of 1856. With all its tricks
and shutting expedients the democratic party
will continue demoralized, broken up, and ut
terly impotent, as long as it perseveres in the
vain labor of making this administration the
nucleus Of its national organization. The
democratic party must be reorganized upon q
sound constitutional national platform, abso-
lutely free and independent Of the administra-
tion, or it win be FILTERED away in. the cleo.
tons between this time and the Presidential
campaign, till nothing is left of it but the Cab-
net, the Office holders, and the spoils.
Let our Richmond contemporary keep up the
fire. His cause is good. If the democratic
party is past all remedy, we must have new
national Union party organized; and as soon
as possible. The Augean stables at WASH
inton are becoming overloaded with manure,
and the democratic party must clean them out,
or give way to the Hercules of public opinion.

at Charleston, South Carolina. During the previ.
GUS years it had not approached the last named city
nearer than Edenton on the north, Savannah river
on the south, and the island at the mouth OF the
barber, where II had been brought as was believed
by brig from New York, in October, 1882. The
cholera also appeared in the Mississippi in 1896,
but did not assume An epidemic character. After
the year 1885 the disease rarely appeared In this

On that occasion the Ant introduction of

about four hundred French and German passengers.
few Of the passengers had died on board, and
some were sick when landed at the public buildings
on Staten Island From these buildings the disease
