ROME, Nov. 27.--For the first time since
the occupation of Rome the Italian Parlia-
ment met in the city to-day. The opening
speech was delivered, in person, by His

restored to herself had reconquered her
place in the world. He was convinced that
Rome would remain the seat of the ponti-

and all other nations, His Majesty said, are
friendly. He believed that peace would
continue, but he warned Parliament that
they would be held to strict account in the
future if they neglected to perfect thor

EAST TENNESSEE I'm THE NEXT
I.EGIsLATURE.


LEGISLATURE.
The Constitution imposes upon the pres
ent Legislature the ''apportiOnment OF Repre-
seniatiyes in the General Assembly" The
remuneration Of the qualified voters re
GENTLY talxen:s shows that there are about
ee5 .Oooi the State, Of which about 6lso00
are negroes. This shows that the basis Of
representation win be about 1900 for SEN
atorial and $500 for Representative districts.
In referring to this duty Of the Legislature,
the Knoxville Press and Herald says:
ssOur present General ASSEMBLY is con-
stituted upon the basis adopted By the
Legislature Of 1872, just twenty years
ago. Another apportionment was made b.
the Legislature of IS6l-2, but all The acts
of that body have been set aside and for
nothing held. So that our present Senate
rial and Representative districts are to-day
Just as they were laid eff twenty years ago.
At that time the voting population of the
State was l60,000-all white. Since then,
we have increased 105 600, of which 81 600
are colored votes, most of whom reside in
Middle aud West Tennessee, there being
less than 1000 in East Tennessee. In white
increase the proportion has also benin favor
of the Middle and West. ~. -. N -
b1s ssThe result of all this must necessarily
be. that East Tennessee will lose consider
ably in her numerical strength in the Leg
d islature. Take her voting population and
apply to it the basis for the State, and it will
be discovered that we VIII lose whole
Senatorial district and considerable por
ton Of another.
q aBesides, our Representative strength will
be sensibly diminished, say to the extent Of
five or six members. TheeonsequeRce will
be an enlargement Of Senatorial districts
and a general change in the floating districts
Several counties in East Tennessee, thai
now have Representative, each, will have
to combine with their neighbors in order
to secure a member. For instance
+. the counties of Graingsr, Cooke, Claiborne
Monroe, Bradley and Marion, each of whicl
now has Representative, not having sepa
rately two-thirds of the requisite numbel
(S,534,) win each lose its exclusive Repre-
sentative. The old order of things will ne
cessariIy be broken up and new associa
tions formed for the next decade.
S'For our inevitable loss in East Tennes
see, we are mainly indebted to the addition
of the colored vote to our electoral enume
radon. by which Shelby county, alone,
enabled to lay claims to two Senators an
seven Representatives, whereas, she nov
shares a Senator with Fayette, has but tw
. Representatives and an interest in Float
er. So much for the blessing"

RebeIIiOus Students.

HAVANA, Nov. 27.-Last Thursday af-
ternuon a number of medical students OF
the Royal University, jumped the walls OF
the cemetery, and proceeded to demolish
the grave of Gonzalo Castanon, and COM
mitted other excuses. The chaplain at
tempted to demonstrate, but the students
stoned him away. On Saturday the Gov
ernor of Havana visited the University, and
demanded of the medical class the names of
the culprits. All the students remained
silent, and the case was then turned over to
the Court. Several of the students then
testified, and six members of the class were
found guilty, and sent to prison. The Court
! temporarily detained forty-two others, who
are suspected Of completely in the act. The

ton of Gonzalo Castonor's grave. The
crowds of volunteers running through
the streets were ordered 70 join their

The Cotton Year-AII Told.
The following estimate Of the supply o.
cotton from ali parts of the world for the
year ending Sept. 80, 1872, is from the mos
reliable source: Crop of the United
States, 3,225,000 bales; supply from th'
East Indies, 100000; Brazil, $4,000
Egypt, $4,000; other countries, k250, 900
Add to above the excess of stock in Euro
pean ports, $4,000 bales excess in United
States ports, $4,000 bales and in spinners
hands 100000 bales, making the total sup
ply for the year 6,479,000 bales. Allowing
that the consumption for the entire yea
will be at the rate of 125, 900 bales per week
which rate can only be reduced by extreme
ly low prices, there would be on hand a
the end of the year, 239, 900 bales.
