RE-DIsTRICTING THE STATE.

The important fact does not seem to
be borne in mind that upon the next
Legislature VIII devolVe the duty of re-
districting the State, and that hence the
political complexion of the Congression-
al delegation from this State will be de-
termined by the manner in which the
State is re-districted. If the Democracy
get control ofthe Legislature the work
may be so done by 4 process Of jerry
Wandering that's difference Of from five
to seven Congressman may bethe result
the popular vote remaining the same.
To have the Congressional delegation
Copperhead when the State is thirty
thousand Republican, would be hum
1liation and q disgrace almost too great
to be borne. And yet such q result is
possible If afeW Republicans in each
township should stay away from the
polls, A change of eleven votes in a
toWnshipWo01d turn last October's ma-
jority against us and hard over the State
to the ~Copperheads. The GaTfelds,
BiDghams and Scheucks would then,
IN all probability, have to give place to
the Van Trumps and Mungens. A
State which has a nobler war record
than any in the Union would then be
represented in Congress by the allies OF
those who tried for five years to DESTROY
the Union. To contemplate this result,
and then say thai bis is mot Az i'm
portant canvass, is matches stupid II.

When Mr. Sherman spoke here the
other night, he made a statement that
no intelligent Democrat can successful

Democratic leaders have proclaimed

is hardly any measure for their benefit

al Homestead law now on the statute
books Bas vetoed by Buchanan, the
last Democratic President. It was af-

were passed BY the opposition to

The Correct Principle

The great advantage Of the method en-
pIeyed to separate the grain from the straw
in his machine is unmistakabIe. 1t is re-
puted to save enough on an average over
other kinds of machines, to pay the farm
ers' threshing bin, and its superiority is
readily conceded by auexcept agents and
manufacturers of b old style, who are
blinded by conflicting Interests.

The Trials of Editors,

We make the following ex-
tract from an address recently
delivered before the Iowa Press
Association on this subject.
In speaking of therevenue of
the press, | cannot refrain from
expressing my views on the
subject of free advertisements.
There is always to be found in
every considerable community a
set of men who imagine by
some dispensation, they ought
not, like other mortals, to pay
for what they receive. Editors
have extraordinary facilities for
making their acquaintance, and
are very kindly permitted to
contribute gifts to their support.
In what other branch of bust
ness would this be tolerated !?
Allowing that one has put the
press under some obligations,
does he generally expect to get
back more than the worth of
his services !?
If man does an editor a
favor of a remarkable value, let
HIM have his remuneration,
cash.
On the other hand require
him to pay for what the paper
has done for him. 1t is as rea-
sonable to expect the carpenter
to single your house and the
tailor to make your clothes
without charge, as to prepare
and publish matter for anoth-
er's benefit without compensa-
ton. Long obituaries, mar
riages ornamented by extracts
from all the poets, and lengthy
puffs of some ones corner lots
or improvements, come under
this class OF advertisements. -
This custom OF gratuitous no.
tees and advertisements from
any quarter, ought to cease, for
the reason that it would be a
benefit to the editors pockets,
and would in some degree
abate an almost intolerabie
nuisance. The editors path
has more thorns than roses,
and there is no law, human or
divine, that should oblige him
to shoulder the burdens of those
who are too lazy or stlngy to
take care of themselves. Peo-
pie will come to terms where
they find their interests are in
volved in a reasonable compli-
ance.

The Fredericksburg Herald
says Let all voters remember
that the Legislature now to be
elected will be called upon to
form "a uniform system Of reg
istration. Now, with Wells
as Governor and a Wells Leg

follow that a registration law
would be framed to meet the
wishes and wants of extreme
Radicalism; for Wells is it's
representative type, and the re-
suit would be, more than the
numbers now disfranchi sed
