Local and State Items.

The NEW APPoRTIoNMENT. - We pub
lish this morning the quotas and credits
of the towns of this Congressional Dis
trict, under the new computation. 1t
seems that previous to the call for 300
900 men made in October last, certain
towns were entitled to surplus credits
for men enlisted on former calls, as APP
pears by the records in the Adjutant
Generals office. Upon the facts being
represented to the Provost Marshal
General an order was made for new
computation, in which these credits are
allowed, and the quotas of all the towns
are materially varied thereby.
The town of Rutland suffers dimin-
ution of it's excess from 80, as first COM
puted, to 3S, as now given But as we
are still ahead on all calls, and the State
at large is gamer by the new compu-
tation, we suppose we should be salts
fed with our present standing. At all
events, the present computation is made
upon the fair basis, as we understand it,
and our record is still good one.

PENNsYLyANIA,-The combined efforts
Of JEFF. Davis and the Pennsylvania
copperheads to keep the Senate of that
State unorganized have finally come to
nought. The Legislature met January
5th parties have been tied in the SEN
ate by reason of one of the Union Sena-
tors (Col. White) being prisoner of
war at Richmond; the copperheads have
refused to yield an inch, and the Senate
has remained without organization UNI
til Tuesday last. But means were final
ly found to get Col. Whites resignation
through the rebel lines good Union
Senator, Or. st. Clair,) was chosen in
his place, by the people of his district
the Senate was united and the organiza-
ton perfected. Says the Tribune:
DIR. st. Clair having reached Harris
burg with his certificate of election in
his pocket, was yesterday escorted to
the Capitol by procession of four thou
sand Unionists, took the oath of Office
after. the reading of the official returns
when the bill enabling the soldiers of
Pennsylvania who may be in service
next fall to vote where they are was at
once called up and passed yeas serea-
teen, nays sixteen-a square party vote.
There aoas a little cheering when that
vote was announced-only about equal
to good-natured earthquake. Then
the old clerks were reelected by seven
teen votes to sixteen blanks and the
Legislature settled itself to the long de-
ferred work of the session.

bennington, N. H., Oct. s, 1860.
Messrs. s. W. FowLE, a. Co.:
Thinking very highly Of DR.. wstar's Balsam
of Wild Cherry cheerfully give a statement OF
its effects in my case. Three years since was
very much reduced with Dreadful Cough, which
resulted in Bronchitis, affecting so severely as
to render it difficult to speak in audible Voice.
To this was added severe night sweats, and was
fearful of going into decline, After recourse 10
various remedies, but to no purpose however, I
made use of the Balsam, few bottles Of which
fully restored me to health. Since that time
have had several severe attacks OF Cough, but the
Balsam has always removed them. / always
keep it by me, and should not know how to DO
without it. Yours respectfully,
JOHN FLAGG,

The REBELS AS MEAT EATERs.-The
Richmond Wing has been greatly en-
lightened by experience. 1t has dis
covered the fact that too much meat is
bad for human kind. Meat is not ne
cessity It's use is habit, which grows
upon one like the use of tobacco or
whisky It's effects may not be- so
deleterious, but like the guzzling Of whis-
ky, or putting of tobacco smoke, meat
eating is too much INDUCED in. The
Wing says it was gravely entertained by
members of the late Congress, and if pro-
posed, would no doubt have passed, and
will probably be passed the next session,
if the requirement for it should appear,
to lt,ait the supply Of meat to citizens to one
haf of that usually consumed" The humili-
ating fact that the SOutherners, and
especially the laboriag portion of them are
altogether too much addicted to this bad
habit of eating meat, is confessed with
a frankness which is commendable.
Says the Wing: 'The fact is, ourselves
and our laborers eat too much meat. No
people in the world are such meat-eaters
as we are, especially our laboring people"
And the Wing sums up the discovery 1t
has made under the pressure of adverse
circumstances in these few but positive
words, which should be published far
and wide for the benefit of mankind,
'neat-eatb,g is purely h1ra,y and habit"
As the rebel supply of this luxury is sup
posed to be considerably restricted the
philosophical conclusion of the Whig
must be very comforting, especially to
"our laboring people"
