SECTIONAL LEGISLATION.

The action Of the New England mem
bers of Congress, with reference to new
congressional apportionments, involves
the greatest of injustice to the West and
the South, because it deprives these sec
tons of the country Of their rightfnl rep
resentation in the next Congress, and
also deprives them Of their full represen-
tation in the Electoral College that will
choose the next President. Each State
is entitled to as many votes in the
Electoral College as it has Senators
and Representatives in Congress added
together; or, as each State has two, and
only two Senators, it has two more cleo
tors than representatives. At present,
Missouri has eleven, Illinois sixteen, and
Iowa eight electors; but, under the new
apportionment, Missouri will be entitled
to fourteen, Illinois twenty, and Iowa
eleven electors. So, too, the eighteen
Western and Southwestern States lying
this side the Alleghenies, that now have
only l52 electoral votes, will, under
the new superintendent, have liz votes,
while the sixteen Atlantic States that now
have l54 electoral votes, will, under the
new apportionment, have l6S. The for
mer ought therefore to cast twenty more
votes for President in 1872 than they
cast in 1868; while the latter would cast
only nine more than they cast in 1858
1t is to debar the West and Southwest
from the exercise Of this increased power
in the Presidential election of 1877 thai
the Eastern States seek to postpone the
application Of the new apportonmen'
TN 1873. The struggle for power be
tween the West and Northeast is rapidiJ
approaching, and will culminate IN the
downfall of that arrogant New England
policy Of making New England interests
the pivot upon which all legislation must
turn. The West, through their represen
tatives, demand fall share Of represen
tst,on according to the census returns IN
the Forty-second Congress and IN the
election o. 1872.

Was any other word ever SO sweet az

Oit is word as beautiful in its effects

hold the forts around the city, and a
formal SURF ender Of the army OF Paris

Prussia is the ascension of the Prince

with his mother, Eugene, as Regent.
Then come forty ships of war, thou

the province of Alsace, portion OF the
province of Lorraine, and another terri

that pass. The world is glad Of peace

A passage curiously apropos to pres
ent experiences in Paris came across us
the other day in turning over the leaves
of Alexander Dumas Thousand and
One Phantoms," written many years
ago. One of the characters tells another
that the Prussians will one day scourge
Paris, and that the rats ought to be en-
couraged and well fed, for the Parisians
will certainly have to eat them. Dumas
little expected to live to see his jocular
remark sad reality.

that, from present prospects, we are

fraud attempted ? The administration

THE prohibition issued by the Royal
Bank of London against the marriage
of any of their clerks who has less than
$3.50 a year. cannot be too severely con
demned. The directors of the bank
surely cannot suppose that men will be-

would be equal to the practice of the
Chinaman who, for $500, will act as a
substitute in an execution.
