The Negative powers Of life are strong. but
In few years how often the paid hue, the
lack .lustre eye and emaciated form, and the
impossibiIity OF application to mental ei-
fort, show their baneful influence. 1t soon
becomes evident to the observer that some
depre sing influence Is checking tue devel-
opInent of the body. Consumption Is talked
OF, and perhaps the youth is removed from
school and sent into the country. This Is
one of the worst movements. Removed
from ordinary diversions OF the ever-chang-
ing scenes of the city, the powers Of the
body, too much enfeebled to give zest 10
healthful and rural exercise, thoughts are
turned inwardly upon themselves.
1.-THE patient be a female the approach OF
the menses is looked for with anxiety as
the first symptom in which nature Is To
show her saving power in difiusing the
circulation and visiting the cheek with
the bloom OF health. Alas increase of APP
petite has grown by what II fed on. The
energies Of the system are Frustrated, and
the whole economy is deranged. The beau
tlful and wonderful period in which body
and mind undergo so fascinating change
from child to woman, is looked for in vain.
The parents heart bleeds In anxiety, and
fancies the grave but waiting for Its victim.

From the Morgantown constitutional
PROPORTIONAL Representation.

The subject Of reform of our elective
system, whereby minorities are to be
protected in their right Of representa-
ton, is beginning to take hold upon the
attention Of the public. All that is re-
quired to secure its adoption is that at
tention be fully and thoroughly aroused
Its essential justice will intaIlibly OBJ
tain for it the sanction Of any enlight-
ened and fair minded community.
The Wheeling REGISTER, the leading
Democratic journal Of the State, has
upon several occasions referred approx
ingly to the movement. The Kanawha
Daily OF recent date has an extended
article, from an evidently enlightened
correspondent, fsvoring the plan OF pro-
portional repr esentation. Besides, many
of our country exchanges have referred
tavorably to the subject, whilst we have
as yet to hear OF the first opposition to
it from any source WORTHY OF consid-
Grafton. And what is directly and
practically to the point, a resolu-
ton has been introduced into the
Constitutional Convention by Mr..
Wiley looking to reform in the
line indicated. Surely no Democrat
will oppose the measure because its
first introduction in the Convention is
due to one of the opposition ! The
question is one not OF parties, but OF
fundamental equity. Nor would the
Democratic party be injuriously affected
by the practical operations OF the sys-
tenn. On the other hand, We believe it
would be permanently benefited. 1t
would still hold, and rightly hold, the
power OF the State government in its
hapds,,and that power would be fortified
and made impreguable.

At the regular monthly meeting of
the Memphis Chamber of Commerce,
held on the 18th, the following pro-
ceedings were had:
Mr.. w. r.. Moore offered the fol-
lowing resolution upon the subject of
the merchants taxi:
Whereas, the merchants of Tennes-
see have for years been burdened with
u rate of taxation from two to ten
times the rate imposed upon their fell
low citizensi in other occupations; and,
whereas, for years they have steadily
appealed again and to the Legislature
for relief from this unjust burden, and
equal justice which they have res
pectfuily sought; therefore
Resolved, that they are now forced,
much against their will, to appeal to
the courts for that justice which the
Legislature has persistently denied
them. lfttH0 tH lrtI ll
Resolved, that the expenses of de-
Tending the suit contemplated in the
above resolution be paid by private
subscription obtained for that pur.
pose.
Resolved, that they feel q deep in
,erest In sustaining the credit OF the
State, and regret that the Legislature
has forced them to seek in the court.
the equal protection of the law.
/. Resolved, that "a committee ofthret
DO appointed by the President OF this
Chamber of Commerce., whose duty
II shall be to employ learned counse
to defend their cause, and to make al
| necessary arrangements to bring thu
question Immediately before the prop
er judicial tribunals.
Resolved, that merchants through
out the State be requested 10 refus
payment of taxes until the final de
cision of the test case, which we pro

Resolved, that every newspaper II

FiRE.-It is hard, under any cir
cumstances, to be burned out, but
when a nhas, by dint of honest
labor and untiring industry, accumu-
lated property, it seems doubly SO.
Last Sunday night, about 0 o'clock,
the frame residence of Mr.. VIM.
Manning, on Comerce street, was to-
tally consumed by fire. Fortunately,
however, most of his furniture and
provisions were saved. But for the
recent rain the surrounding buildings
would have shared the same fate.--
Our gallant firemen were promptly
onhand with all the equipments they
could command, but they lacked
sufficient hose to reach the tistern al
the old market place, the nearest
point where supplyof water was to
be had. The Babcocl Extinguisher'
were brought out, also, sslt the fire
was too far advanced for any good t.
be accomplished By them.
Mr.. Manning had an insurance OF
his building of $1,000, in Home, o
Georgia, represented by Mr.. Jane
Hume, OF this city.
