SIR; On behalf of myself aud many others, would ask
10 what office has John A. Logan been elected in Illinois
Have we any office in this State corresponding 20 1t
Respectfully, RG.
NeW. York Nov. - 1866.
Tho law OF 23d of MAY, 1880 fixes the number OF
Members of Congress at 233, who are redistributed
among the States after and in accordance with every
decennial census An act Of March a. 1862 increased,
however the number of Representatives from 933 to
24l, by allowing one additional Representative TO
eight States, Of which Illinois was one The number
Of Congressman of Illinois was thus raised from l3 to
IL. The State Legislature of Illinois, instead OF
dividing the State into II districts, preferred to elect
only 10 Members OF Congress in separate districts,
and to have the fourteenth elected by the vote
of the whole State. This is the Congressman at
Large" for which office Gen. Logan has just received
majority approaching 10000. Illinois is the only
State in the Union which has " Congressman at
Large mot counting the States which elect only one
Congressman.

putting out one party and putting in tho other will

chose majority of the present Board Of Councilmen;
and "the Ring had bought as many as 1t wanted Of
them even before their Board was organized We
do at particularly want to repeat that experiment.
III. Times says we indorse' Judge Barnard, su-

stated the fact that each of them had been suggested
for the Controlership; and we stated as fairly as
we could. the recommendations of each. There we
stopped awaiting the action Of the Citizens Associa-
ton Should they nominate one candidate, while
the Republicans present another, we shall probably
not consider the chance of sufficient to stimu
late 20 much exerion for either. If our friends are
bent on defeat, II cannot be difficult, in this Demo-
cratic City to crafty their aspiration
1t remains only to say that we recently distin-
gushed Justice Connolly from another Of like surname
by an epithet which we happy to learn that heb
completely outgrown. When young, Mr.. Richard B..
Connolly was Tammany politicians but. for several
years past he has been absorbed in business and
wholly withdrawn from oaucuses and partisan CON-
mtee5 His patriotic course in our State Senate with
his subsequent hearty support OF the War for the
Union impel US to regret that we characterized him
by term which bears no relation TO his present
estimable character and honest fame.

TIE RIGHT 0F SUFFRAGE.

Ia the Federal Convention Of 1857, June 6, Mr.
Pinckney moved "that the first branch of the Ma
tional Legislature be elected by the State Legsla-
lures, and not by the peoples" contendng that the
people were less fit judges in such case and that
the Legislatures would be less likely to promote the
adoption of the new Government if they were TO be
excluded from all share In it.
The motion was seconded by Mr. Rutledge, and q
spirited debate ensued. COL Mason was opposed to
the motion, and said that paper money had been
issued by tho State Legislatures when the people
were againstit Mr.. Madison also opposed the notion
aud advocated the election Of branch at least, of
the Legislature by tho people Immediately. Among
other remarks, he made the following emphatic decla
ration: I'VE have seen tic distinction of color
made, in the most enl' ghtened period Of time, a
ground of the most oppressive dominion ever e1er-
cised by man over man."
What ground, what excuse. can the people OF the
South now have, for continuing this most OPpres're
dominion" and robbing 1900 900 Of people Of their
right to choose their own law giyersl Itmay be well
for the people Of the West the North and the East to
consider whether they nnocently stand aoof and
allow traitors to rob loyal men Of their suilragos.
If the Constitutional Amendment shall be adopted
and the now delinquent States shall BIO represented in
Congress those States must SEQ that their own utter

The report Of the Citizens Association to the Com
mittee of the Legislature investigating our shaky
system Of Wharyes and Piers gives the best possible
reason for legislative interference in the hepessnes'
of our city affairs IT is clearly right belonging 70
the one million of our citizens, who pay one-thd oil
all the taxes for the support of the State Government
and who comprise OnefOurth of the State population
that the Legislature should interfere in their
behalf" Mayor Hofman'S acknowledgment
that tho condition Of our wharyes is disgrace
full but that The city has help for it, strengthens
this maxim enoouragngly. The Citizens Associa-
ton have once again moved foremost in the ctys be-
half aud won universal thanks for good work
thoroughly done. The Legislative Committee can
not fail to take proof from their detailed and exhaust
i've report that the commerce Of the city suffers shame
fully from tho wreck and rottenness which for so
many years has boen set the mercantile wealth Of our
greatest seaport.

Police Commissioners was if well done at ALL we'll
