TIE NEW APPORTIONMENT.
ProvisioDs of the Bill to BE Presented-Num
ber of Representatives Fixed Upon.

e. oa a Be San
A Washington despatch to the New York
Tribune says:-Judge Mercur, of the House
Judiciary Committee, to which was referred the
subject of new Congressional apportionment,
and the various bills relating thereto, has pre-
pared report, and a bill to accompany 1t,
which the committee has instructed him to re-
port to the House. This he will do tomorrow,
or as soon as he can obtain the hoor The re-
port of the bill will be printed and recon-
mltted. The following is the substance of the
report
That inasmuch as said bill was acted upon by
each House of Congress prior to the taxing of
the ninth census, aud with the object OF having
Representatives elected under it in the year
1870 many of its provisions have become useless
ard impracticabe, yet the House of Representa-
tives thereby indicated 275 Representatives and
the Senate 800 Representatives, as the number
of which the House should be composed. The
committee has given due consideration to the
fact.
Believing, however, that 300 Representatives
to be increased by the admission of new States,
is greater number than public policy now
quires, it is concluded to report in favor of 280
members commencing with the XLllld Con-
gress. This number is arrived at by fixing upon
1877, 500 persons as the ratio and also by giving
an additional Representative to each State that
has fraction greater than one moiety of the
said ratio.
sentation will be reduced will be New Hamp-
shire and Vermont, each of which will lose one
Representative. The States of Maine, Rhode
Island, Connecticut, Delaware, Louisiana, Ohio,
Florida, Oregon, West Virginia, Nevada, aud
Nebraska will each maintain their present
representation. The States of Massachusetts
New York, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina,
South Carolina, Alabama, Mississippi Califor-
MIA and Minnesota will each gain one over its
present representation. The States of New
Jersey, Pennsylvania Georgia, Texas, Wiscon-
sin, and Kansas will each gain two The States
of Missouri, Michigan, and Iowa will each gain
three, and the State of Illinois will gain four.
This report and the following bill are based
upon the census just completed
The bill proposes tkat from and after the Sd
day of March, 1873 the House of Representa-
tives shall be composed of $50 members, to be
| appoTtoned among the several States in accord
ance with the provisions of this act, as follows:

Mr.. Butler went TO say that the political party
VIII ch would set itself Hp against annexation of ter
ritoty would come to nought. 1t was the doctrine
Of Jefferson OF Jackson, OF Polk, and OF every De-
moCratic administration, and had now come to be
accepted as the doctrine OF the country.
Mr. Bingham sustained the joint resolution, and
opposed Mr.. Ambler's resolution as unnecessary,
and as only tending to promote delay. He pointed
with pride to the vast acquisitions Of territory bg
this Government in the past, and to the immigration
from the north OF Europe promoted by that tsrrito
rial expansion.
At the conclusion OF Mr.. Bingham's remarks Mr.
Garfield proposed further extension OF fifteen
minutes of the time allowed for the discussion.
Mr.. Butler OF Massachusetts, object.
Mr.. Garfed-Listen to the gentleman who cracks
whip objectiDg to debate (Excitement)
MIR. Butler-And listen to the man whose back
smarts Qaughter.)
MIR. Morgan-The House is under the domination
OF whip cracker.
The discussion was closed by Mr.. Orth in support
OF the resolution. He declared that nothing could
be discovered in the resolution when honestly eX-
amined which could deter any member, much lesg q
member on his own side OF the House, from gidnT
It his support. II contained but single pro pos
in whom a large majority OF the House had conf
dence should appoint three commissioners to pro.
ceed to the Island OF St. Domingo and there acquire
certain information, to be laid before the American
Congr ess and the Amer ican people.
He knew nothing about the character OF those
commissioners; but he entertained ne doubt as to
the result OF the report on the acquisition OF that
island.
After two hours debate on the Dominican reso-
lution the House proceeded to vote on the resOlu-
tton offered by Mr.. Amber THAT the passage Of
the resolution should not be construed or under
stood as committing the Government to the policy
Of annexing Dominica. The amendment was agreed

the House Commerce Committee to-day, to urge the
passage Of bill introduced by General Schenck
foe a steamship line from various ports of the
United States to Europe AS there were several
gentlemen who wished to be heard on the subject
definite action on the subject was postponed until

The YCrger Trial.


This important casc-thc tria! of
Col. Il. NJ. lorgcr for mausIaushtcr
the ParticuIarman slaughtered be-
ing Col. Crane, at the time Mavor of
jackson, was expected to be taken
up and disposed of at the present
term OF the circuit court tor Kinds
county, but we arc reliably informed
that some special pleas will be filed
and that in consequence thereof the
ease will not be tried. We predict
that if ever tried, it will not be in
this county. The fact of the matter
is, that the manner in which this
matter has been conducted has been
fucial from beginning to end. To
save expense to the State, the Dis
trict Attorney might well enter n
nollc p%rosequi. If tried, Col Yerger
will never be convicted of manslaueh
ter, for if he was guilty of crime, it
was murder, and for this oifensc the
grand jury has refused toindict him.
Ills trial will be simply one of the
sensations of the day-a subject of
talk throughout the country, a tit
bit for the newspaper press for about
nine days, and then go up in smoke
without n shot having been fired.
1t is an expense to the State, and
utterly farcial to bother any more
with the case.

The following extract of an
amusing incident We clip from the
Mississippi Central at Wa
ter Valley, and must confess that we
have puezlcd our brains to guess
who that polite gentleman OF the
quill was, who was for once, owe
taxed in his gallantry-we can
guess ut the handsome Captain from
Long Creek, and must think that
our friend Capt. Jessie Wright is
the one referred to, and we have a
mind to ask him who the "othcr fell.

is good but there might be added
something to it, and that is, that 4
gentleman had better see how many
bundles there is before he proffers to
carry all for a lady when travelling.
