.-s5-The Northern papers are reckoning
among the causes which explain the strength
Of the South, in Congress, the fact that the
Southern States are accustomed TO retain
their representatives in service several
ycars-while the Northern States change
them almost every session. Thus Virgiuia
returns TO the present Congress twelve of
her thirteen representatives, in the last Ala
bama five OF seven; Missouri six of seven;
Tennessee seven OF ten, and SO on; while
Massachusetts sends back only two OF eleven;
New York ten OF thirty.three; Pennsylvania
eight of twenty-five, California, and Connect
lieut., Delaware, Iowa, Michigan, New Hamp
shire and Wisconsin send all new members.
Old members, these papers say, have San
enormous advantage over all green hands; for
one old member of Wit and worth, equals ten
green ones of like wit and worth. To DC
efficient in Congress at aI-not as speaker,
but as q irorLcf, with power-at lcas. four
years apprenticeship is indispensably nccessa-
ry. For the first session, new member
hardly knows his heels from his head-in
practical matters-and ten times to once, he
will be out of order, when he wishes to nc.
anything-tl he has had at least
two years training"

the next Legislature Of that State, asking for
the passage Of law TO prevent the monulac.
ture or sale Of adullerated or impure liquors.
1t is proposed to subject offenders TO fine and
imprisonment. The petition reads:
"Poisonous compounds, under the name of
liquor, are daily sold to the inhabitants OF this
State, the effect Of the use Of which is not so
much to intoxicate as TO render insane; that
the use of such drinks has introduced, and
will continue to introduce, fearful diseases
heretofore unknown to our race, and spread
vice and immortality broadcast over the land;
and that the cause Of humanity impcratively
calls for some Legislative action on the sub
ieut."

United States during its brief career, from
the year 1874 to 1885, the good round sum
of s l,o92,Gl6, in appropriations from the IA.
tiona treasury, and to meet this the sale Of
the place recently only produced $4,000,
thus leaving Il balance Of $lO4I56O, for
which we have nothing to show Besides this,
the yard cost during its existence $4,000 for
salaries Of Commandant, Purser and Super
nlendent. Had this sum, says the Philadc-
phia American, been applied to the improve
ment Of the Mississippi river and its main
tributaries, how much property that has been
lost might have been saved and how much
