' Sourn CAEuLINA.-- Tho constitution

ccived by President johnson on Thurs

NJ PitSjdeRt In accordance with
the instructions of the late Constitutional
Convention of the State of South Carolina,
over which | had the honor to preside,
and the requirements of the reconStruc-

States, present you the constitution OF
South Carolina, as ratified by the vote OF
the great majority of her citizens at the

On receiving the document which was
neatly engrossed and carefully enclosed in
an elaborate mahogany box, the President
remarked that it was apparently IA very
fine instrument, and without further re-
mark the interview ended.
Recent official returns from South Car

the constitution was fourteen thousand
instead of seven thousand, and was main
" composed of ex-Confederate soldiers.

Whore President Grant is Needed.

FROM The ~. Y. Tribune.
Now, while the politicians are mastering
their clans for the division OF the spOils of the
late victory, and before ,he posts of greatest
trust aud responsibility are allotted, We bag
those interested, as every sincere Republican
must be, in the success Oh President Grants
administration, to bear in mind that the three
posts of greatest importance, in an economical
point of view, are those of Secretary of the
Treasury, Chief of the Bureau of Internal
Revenue, and Collector Of the Port OF New
York. The first needs not so mucA popular
politician as a sOund hnancer aud an able,
prompt, honest administrator OF affairs. OF
Al 600 officers OF the Government, upwards OF
5000 are appointed through and are under
the orders of, the Secretary of the Treasury.

Bombast Run into the Ground.

From "Briek" POnlerOy'S ~ Y. Democrat
The World, since it fell under the ban of the
Democracy of the country, and is losing sub
scribers by hundreds every day, is tearing
around like mad to try to save itself from
total destruction. 1t has gone into the sensa-
tion line, and is running into all sorts of ex-
aggerations to try to attract readers. 1t pub
fishes canard every day, in the hope to check
the rapid fall in its circulation. 1t is over
stating, overacting, and inventing, to degree
unprecedented in the metropolitan press.
From the stately dignity which it once as
sumed, it has dropped down to the per-
formances OF meuntebank, and
turned the veriest blower that ever
soied white paper with rodomontade.
1t is in vain to seek the simple, unvarnished
truth upon any subject in its columns. such
a recklessness of statement is nowhere else to
be found. There is not the slightest reliance
to be placed upon anything which appears in
its pages. Its boastings are as ridiculous as
its assumptions are false. One day it claims
credit to itself for the immense Democratic
majorities in the metropolitan district; the
next for the whole Democratic vote of the
country. Miserable pretender The De-
mocracy has polled an immense vote in spite
of the WorLi-not in consequence of its ex-
isteDce, or by its aid. We should be- hun
dreds of thousands stronger to-day if Mayor
Opdyke had not closed his ears and hardened
his heart against tAat base, whimpering ap-
peal for pecuniary aid made by the vile,
crawling, officiating beggar who was then
counting prostitution which he professed to
loathe, but so. tar put on 3 show of reluctance
as TO express a preference TO be hired to be

Here it will be seen that, counting the
larger fraction rs entitled to the representa-
tive, Rhode Island remains unaltered; but in
the other States just proportion of repre-
sentatives to voters is kept up. Furthermore,
the figures show yet another inequality than
the one we are discussing, to wit, that
voter in Rhode Island is very nearly three
times as potent in tue election of representa-
tives as one in Pennsy lvauia, and nearly twice
as potent as one in Massachusetts, while the
Massachusetts, voter is fifty per cent. more
potent than the Pennsylvania. Not to pur-
sue this particular view, which serves to show
how little right these New England States
have to their present share of the House, we
have only to repeat that the non-representa-
tion of large bodies of voters, by reason of an
originally vicious system still further aggra-
waited by partisan administration, is an evil
that must be abated and will be abated on
correct comprehension of its magnitude. To
the formation of such comprehension the
World will not cease to direct its efforts.

representation and Misrepresentation,

,Repres sentatiOn and MISREPRESENTATION
From me ". Y. WOTLd.
The Tribune is disingenuous in saying that
while the Worid protests against the monOpo-
li2ng by the radical majority in Massachu
setts of the entire Congressional delegation, 1t
does not object to the almost entire exclusion
OF TIE radical party in this city from represen-
tation, late and Congressional. But the
World does object, and TO show that it did
and does rise to the broad level of a general
principle, reprOduoes the closing sentence OF
that very article which provOkes the inaccu-
racy Of the Tribune. Massachusetts," said
that closing sentence, 'must be reconstructed
in this matter, and with her the false principle
that feeds her monopoly as it does others"
Here is a declaration by the WOrtd against the
present fallaciops system of representation,
to give 1t that name, and not merely against
the unfalrness perpetrated under 1T IN the
special case OF Massachusetts. That casa was
taken as one very prominently presenting tne
evil complained ot, but the application was
general.
To continue that application, we will reoa-
pitul&te by saying that representation is
simply presentation, and that where the
political composition Of a community is not
correctly bodied forth IN the assemblies pur-
porting to represent such comm unity, those
bodies are not re- presents latiVe but mis- pre-
sentative. The principle on which We 90 il
that each voice shall have its share in the
chorus and not that the singing be all tenor
or all bass. TO illustrate this we will take
the figures in the case of three States that
have furnished full official returns. Obviously
the correct way to fix the representation of
those communities is to appOftion the repre-
sentatves in the ratio OF opposing voters.
Thus, If there be a community entitled to
twenty representatives and the total vote be
100000, whereof 100000 are, so to speak, A
