UyrrEp STATES SENATE.-Out OF twenty
two seats to be vacated in the Senate
ON the Sd of March next, seven have
already been filled, only one Of which
will be occupied by its present occupant
that OF Mr.. Morrill,, of Vermont. Messrs.
Patterson, Cole, Harlan and Corbett will
be- succeeded by Republicans, two OF
them new to pubic life; while the others
Messrs. Sargent and Allison, have
served in the House several times.
Messrs. Garrett Davis and Nickers will
b. succeeded by Democrats, one OF
whom, McCreary, has already served IN
the Senate, and the other, Prlnckney
WHITE. has served in the House. VI
the fifteen others, it is settled that Nor
ton will succeed himself, while Cameron
can if he desires to do so. North Caro-.
lima will. it is probable, send Democrat
here in place Of Mr.. Pool, and Georgia
certainly will in Mr.. Hills place, unless
the Senate declines to recognize the
LEGISLATURE as one legally quallflsd,
owing to the character of their election.
So far this is Republican loss of two.
OF the other eleven, it is considered
beyond question that Mr. Howe will be
reelected in Wisconsin, almost equally
so as to Mr.. Pomeroy in Kansas, Conk-
lin in New York. Spencer in Alabama,
and Osborne in Florida. Mr.. SAWYER
will be succeeded from South Carolina
by coIored Senator, probably Repre-.
sentative Elliott; while Mr. Kellogg will
be elected Governor of Louisiana and
| give his seat to Governor Pencilback,
the well known colored leader, Govern
or Nye will be succeeded by a Republic
can, if not reelected, and there is fail
probability that Mr.. Rice, of Arkansas
Liberal, will be succeeded by Mr. Nc
Donald, Republican, while Trumbull Is
sure of defeat.

THE HoBsE DIsEAsE.-John c. B II, Of
the large furnishing and carpet store, on
Market street, nearly opposite this Grand
Hotel, knows all about the horse disease
which is now making such frightful raw
ages in the Elst, as he had some years
ago five horses down at one time with
the same disease. He says it is an in
fuenza and catarrhal fever, caused by
the changes of the weather from extreme
heat to cold, which becomes epidemic.
1t is dangerous to men, and in handling
horses attacked by the disease
great care must be taken not to breath
the horses breath, or to come in con-
tact with the matter runni.y from his
nose. Mr.. Bell says horse attacked by
this disease must not be bled upon any
consideration, as he required every drop
of blood and as much nourishmeut as
can be gwen him. The horses he treat
ed all recovered. He has prepared a
pamphlet, giving his receipt and the
manner of treating the disease. and will
forward it to any address, or will give
any information upon application. Mr..
Bell thinks the disease may be expected

REFORM NEEDED.

No good citizen will fail TO view with
alarm the demoraiiztion which must give
rise to the shameless buying Of votes
Liberty is gone when citizens allow
themselves to be bought and sold like
cattle in the market The evil referred
TO has had too much Roadway already,
and it must be checked by the strong
arm of the law, since it is clear that a
high moral sense is not sufficient to pre-
serve the purity of the ballot We beg
to call this matter to the attention of our
delegation in the next Legislature. The
following provisions of the California
election law may serve to enhghten our
worthy delegation:
Sec. 50, Every person who, by force,
threats, menaces, brides, or any other
corrupt means, either directly or indi-
rectly attempts to influence any elector
in giving his vote. or to deter him from
giving the same, or attempts by any
means whatever to awe, restrain, hinder,
or disturb any elector in the free exercise
electors wishing to vote, who clnuot
read, with ticket, informing or giving
such elector to understand that 1t con-
I ins a name written or printed thereon
different from the name which is written
or printed thereon, or dafrauds any elec-
tor at any such election, by deceivlng
and causing the electsr to vote for a
different person or any Office that he in
tended or desired to vote for; or who,
being Inspector, Judge or Clerk of cleo
ton, while acting as such, induces, or
attempts to induce any elector, either
by menace or reward, or promise there
of, to vote differently from what such
elector intended or desired to vote, he is
guilty of a misdemeanor
See. 81. Every person who with in
tent to promote the election of himself,
or any other person, either,
l. Furnishes entertainment at his ex-
pense to any meeting of electors previous
or during an election,
2. Pays for, procures or engages to
pay for any such entertainment,
3. Furnishes or engages to pay or de-
liver any money or property for the pur
pose of procuring the attendance OF
voters at the polls, or for the purpose o.
compromising any person for procuring
the attendance of voters at the polls, e1
cept the conveyance of voters who ar,
sick or infrm,
4. Furnishes or engages to pay or de
liver any money or property for any pur
pose intended to promote the election @
any candidate, except for the expenses G
holding and conducting public meeting
for the discussion of public questions
and of printing and circulating ballots

MINORITY REPRESENTATION This year
Illinois elected her Legislature under
the system which secures representa-
ton to considerable local minorties, and
is therefore termed Minority Represen-
tation. To this end the whole State is
apportioned into districts of nearly equal
population, whereof each is to choose
three representatives; but every voter is
at liberty to vote for three different can
didates, to concentrate on two only, or
to vote thrice for one candidate, thus:
/. 3.
John Smith. John Smith Il 4

John Brown.

Inspectors must count and return it
accordingly, unless he should attempt to
cast more than three votes, in which
case his ballot is not to be counted at
all,

one corner of the yard. The steam drum
which had surmounted the boiler, weigh
ing about quarter of q ton, had
been hurled on the roof Of the boiler shop at
the point marked E, and crashing through the
walls had fallen in the gar The "back
head" of the boiler, massive circular plate
of iron, had taken longer journey, and was
pitched clear over the roof of the boiler shop
into the adjoining lot two hundred feet away
The tall smoke stack performed sumersault
In the air, but landed very near Its old loca-
ton. The large man-hole plate found rest
ing place on the roof of the boiler shop, and
other pieces varying in SIZE from masses OF
iron weighing FIVE hundred pounds to trag-
ments the size of pebble were scattered
In every direction. One good sized lump
landed in the premises of Messrs. SaWner d
Ferguson, on Hasel street, and another was
said to have struck in Bennet's MIL pond.
The adjoining counties have not yet been
heard from.
THE PECUNIARY LOSS
has not yet been accurately estimated, out
must be somewhere between three and four
thousand dollars. The boiler itself was worth
about eight hundred dollars. Or course there
was no insurance against this sort of an acci-
dent. Fortunately no confagration was
caused by the explosion, and the services OF
the steam fire engine, which was promptly on
the SPOT, were not found necessary. Messrs.
Taylor g. Co. announce that the disaster will
not effect any suspension Of their business
operations as The actual damage to the build
Ings can be very speedily repaired, and they
are supplied with another boiler, which has
been used alternately with the one now de-
stroyed, and which is ample for all the pur-
poses of their establishment.
Coroner Taft, being notified of the case yes
terday afternoon, impanelled jury and visit
ed the scene of the accident, making care
full inspection of the locality and the fragments
Of The boiler. The inquest will be begun at
Lhe Courthouse at noon to-day.

THE CASUALTIES,
considering the force of the explosion and the

were remarkably few, but they included, un-
fortunately, the loss of one life, that OF Master
Frederick Barton, an apprentice of the estab-
lishment. who was, for the time, In charge OF

death, and the only other workman who sus-
