Col NErHERLAED in sludipg to the appOrtionment
Of the State which he admitted he had advocated
and supported stated that the majority against the
Democratic party, in the General Assembly, was not
90 large under the new appOrionment as it had been
under the old one. Referring to our files, the best
authority accessible to us ct this moment, we find
that the Wings had ten majority on joint ballot in
ls5I-seven in the Senate and three in the House
Mr.. NETHERLAED was member Of the Legislature
at this time, and assisted in the appOrtonment BY
which, if the vote Of the counties had remained
unaltered, the Wings would have had majority of
16 OF joint ballot. II they did not maintain thst
majority it was partly because Of the odium which
this very measure brought upon the party. In
1853, however, the Whigs actually obtained ma
jOrity Of u on Joint ballot, Notwithstanding the
Democratic majority in the State two thou

very grave in his attempt avoid the respon-
Bibility Of this odious act He seemed tn feel the
insufhcsnoy Of his defence for without aluding at
ell to the still more just superintendent If the
Congressional districts, he confidently fell back on
the general and sweeping justification, that he was
doing ''GOds service in whipping the Democratic
party"

Col. NETHERLAND remarked in his speech last
Saturday night at the Courthouse that "any man
who could read, write or cipher, or could under
stand man who read it to him, would see that the
late Democratic platform was a hard~money plat
form" How terribly stupid some of his own
friends must be The Banner the day after the
convention said the soft element had prevailed, and
the PARROT, after considering the matter for some
time, discoursed as follows:
''The resolution respecting the currency, adopted
by the Democratic State Convention on Thursday,
amounts to clear enunciation in favor of q well
regulated banking system The 'hsrds' of the party
have been compelled to knock under to the 'softs'
The exclusively metallic currency agitators have had
BIT put into their mouths! %
'Iu their praise>worthy efforts to provide an eff
feeve remedy for all abuses to which the existing
system is subject the quondaD lizards will doubt
less meet with the earnest cooperation Of the OPP
position party in this State"
True, the Patriot put in plea OF slipPance and
took all this back: but that was after the wise men
had consulted together and determined that it must
and should be a hard platform. pCol. NEITHER
ought not to hit his friends such terribly hard
blows. We know our neighbOrs can ''resd, write.
and cipher" for the Banner can tell the exact cost
Of the "scOtch wsterpipts," and the Patriot some
time back, was engaged in balancing accounts be-
tween the evils of Mr.. BELLS anti Kansas policy
and the benefits of the Union. Our neighbor has
''done the sum-" and we won't have him slandsred

"The Opposition papers at the North, says the
New York Journal Of Commsycs, as far as we have
observed, are in favor of the election OF Mr.. Cog
gin, the Opposition candidate for Governor in Vir-
GINA. They desire the defeat OF John Letcher, the
Democratic candidate, although some Of them sd-
nit that the prospect of such result is very slight.
SIN the Northern States, the Opposition is made
up largely of anti-sayery men, who denOuuee slaves
ry sin, and shareholders as the worst Of people
Their opposition to the Democratic party is based
chiefly on its alleged prO-slavery proclivities and
they fight all their political battles, from President
down to town constable, on the slavery Issue"
So says the Journal, fair, candid conservative
Democratic sheet. 1t is unquestiOnabe that the
sbOltiODists desire the election of the Opposition
ticket in all the States of the South. They know
who their friends 1t would be strange if they
were not grateful to BELL and BORIS and their fol-
lowers for their sympathy and support. The Know
nothing papers in Tennessee and Virginia rejoicsd

lieans should desire the Of TIE KnoW-nuth-

The Grand junction Quid Nuac is edited with q
spirit spicness and ability which must obtain for it
an extensive circulation. Its Editor was once a
whig, bat be can't stand the present opposition.
"The opPOsitionists Of Tennessee, in their plat
form, and in their newspaper organs" says the
Quid NuHe earnestly desire to IGNORE the ques-
tons growing out of Slavery. Their motive is
transparent. They vainly wish to be able to say
that their predetermined alliance with the Black Re-
publicaps has no reference to the war on the instu
tiOns of the South lately declared by Seward. They
wish to run with the hare and hold with the hounds
But the thing has often been tried, and can't be
done The party which ignores the Slavery ques-
tion at this time in the face of the open and dead
ly assaults of Seward and his followers upon the
rights of the States, has already committed treason
to the constitution, the South and the Uuion.'
What an easily duped set Of fellows the members
of the late Opposition Convention at NASHVILLE must
have been! says the Quid NHne. young looking
man, possessing most beautiful and flowing hair 8
beard and Doustache Of the blacklist jet, and no
sign of having used speetseles, passed himself
off on them as Governor FoOTE, late of Mississippi
and several other States and cities. Now it is well
known that Gov. FooTE ia on the shady side Of sixty
is bald as onion, as grey as 9 rat, and
as veuerabls>look-- as a Chinpanzes. But
The youthful impostor being called out for speech
responded in style of gushing garrulty and incOn
tinent egOtism so wonderfully like the Governor,
that far less credulOus people than the 0pposition
lists might have been excused for believing in him

For these items have all been once counted in the
seventysone millions Of actual payments out of the
treasury during the fiscal year 1873. Deduct this
So ia from the S6s 600 900 appropriated at the
session of 1878, and we have as the expenditures
of the government during the years 1883 the sum
of $59, 974, 226.
1t is maintained by the Opposition, however, that
there was balance of uuexpended appropriations
on the lot of July, 1858, of twelve sixteen mil
lions, which was liable to be expended during the
fiscal year 1885, and that this ought to be added
to the appropriations for the year. in estimating its
expenditures The reply to this, however, is, that
there will be like balance Of appropriations re-
naming une1pended on the LIST of july 1859, of the
appropriations for the years 1859, which, the
principle, ought to be deducted; and that it is,
therefore, safe to take account of neither and to let
tho one Offset the other.
We come now to the expenditures for the year
1859-G0, which will commence on the LIST Of July,
next. These are approximately indicated by the
appropriations which have been made for the ser
vice Of that year, augmented they will beby such
appropriations as the next Congress will make for
the postal service the bill for which failed at the
last session An official statement Of the sppropri
atoms of the last session has just been made by the
clerk of the House Committee Of Ways and Means,

This statement shows the gross appropriations
made at the session of 1885, andincludes not only
those designed for the service of the year 1883,
but also certain deficiencies thea ext ting, and
which were paid out of the treasury between the
passage of the Deficiency bills and the beginning of
the fiscal year 1859 the LIST of July, 1858. The
statement embraces two Deficiency bills. One of
these appropriated $34l, 1S9 for printing, which
was paid Immediately after the passage Of the bill
and is included in the seventyoDe million of dollars
we have shown TO have been actually paid out of the
treasury in the fiscal year 1873. The other De-
aciency bill appropriated S9.7O4 ,2O9; of which
amount, we have sscertsined by inquiry at the
treasury, that the sum of 1925, 1898 was paid
during the fiscal year 1878, and formed part of
the seventyone millions of dollars paid out in that
year. The payment under the treaty with Denmark
was also made in 1873. In order, therefore, to
ascertain The approximate expenditures Of the fiscal
year 1859, we must deduct from the gross sPpro-
priatOns of the session of 1873 as stated above,

above the many novels which are published.
Both in structure and style it is entitled to the
name of art. 1t is Tale of Domestic Life. re-
hearsing the interviewer histories of round of
every day characters, and its aim is to show the
follies of the too many, so called passions and
pleasures of fashionable life, touching in no part
upon ground that properly belongs to the vast
domain of romance.
The Bachelor Millionair Uncle George is a
character reminding us of the Brothers Chesryble.
and although he teaches the " sweet uses of Adyer.
sity with severe discipline, it brings out the true
beauty of character and shows how few there are
who can go through the trials of everyday life,
