We hear with deep regret that some OF our cti

We have suffered for tn. the past four years
as fully sympathize in their sentiments as we share
in the annoyance OF which they complain; but we
must warn them against the greater evil which they

HOW THE LEGISLATURE IS MADE UP.
The Times, under the caption How the Legis
lature Is Name Up" says:-
Mr.. wneyland, the member Of that branch OF thu
House which holds Its sessions N Dryades street

1t was In vain that Mr. smart brought to this citl
and exhibited TO the Legislature the evidence In m
form OF afidavits OF the voters themselves that o

Wheyland was OF the same class as Carr ant
Devices, and because he favored the powers tina

not. At the time OF his return we called attention
