We have often been asked to state under which
Congressional apportionment the next Pres iden-
tisl election will be held, that which now exists
or that which viii come into existence with the
next Congress. We cannot speak positively on
the subject, but reasoning from the facts Of the
past, we should say that the voting in November
next will be for electors under the new appor-
tionment Four times in our history has the
same state of things existed a. now exists-in
1892, in 1872, in 1882, and in 1852, and in
every case the Electoral Colleges have been based
on the lsst preceding census. Should the voting
take place under the new apportionment, the
number Of elestors would be 357, and the num-
Der necessary to a choice would be 179 Should
it take place under the old appointment. the
number Of electors would be BIZ, aud the num-
Der necessary to choice l59 Unless some verv
remarkable changes should place in course of the
next eight months, the Republicans would be
sure Of majority in the Electoral Colleges. no
matter under which apportionment the election
should take place. They would have the votes OF
all the New England S,ates, those Of Penn,yl-
vania, those Of ALMOST all the Northwestern
States, and those Of large number of the South
ern States-formirg at least three fifths Of the
entire number OF electors. Their only danger
lies IN the possibility that there may be a num-
Der Of Electoral tickets in the field, in which
case they might lose the votes Of three or four
SIates. In which their majorites are not large.

A SAD AFFAIR. - The VermOHt Chronicle
says Mrs. Moran, an estimable woman, living
at Buena Vista, in Windsor, wife of Edward
Moran, came near putting an end to her life
last Sunday night. 1t appears that her home
has been made wretche1 by the incorporate
habits of her husband, snd that on that night,
,he occupied room apart from her husband.
Early Monday morning her son, lad some ten
or twelve years old, went into her room snd dis
covered bis mother lying in bed and fesrfully be-
smearei with blood The alarm was immediate
y given, and on examination it was found that
she was lying faiat and speechless from the loss
of blood through CHASTITY wound in her
throat by which the windpipe was near
ly severed and a huge cash made which
did not quite sever the jugulsr vein. She
WAS still breathing, and on the arrival OF ORA.
Stiles and Clark, she ct fret resisted all at
tempts to dress the wound and save her life. she
insisting that she did the deed herself and meant
to die. But abe finally yielded, and was put
under the influence Of chloroform, and the prop
er dressing took place, snd at this writing
THURSDAY morning) she is IN fair way for
recovery.
The Chronicle adds This is indeed q sad AZ
fair, which should lead all good citizens to in
quire earnestly who and what lead to this suici-
dial actl Does any neighbor or citizen doubt
that if intoxicating drink had been kept from
the lips of her husband this painful event would
not have occurred What then do the unlawful
liquor traffic and they that persist in it, in de-
spite of the law deserve st the hands eff the au-
thorities and the people.

We fear the Rutland architects are not dwell
Ing in that pesce ami harmony which should
always be instillei in esrly life by sssidous study
Of the nursery lyric, Dogs deligb; to bark and
bite" &c. One Of them, in = communication TO
the Herald, makes out The chief features Of the
new Town Hall Of Rutlsnd to be
'rotten floor timbsrs, "ehaky cornice, gin
eerbre,d' and 'gew-gaws, walls going to
pieces '.like ropes Of rand" and "underpin-
ming lost beyond resurrection" The other,
who had charge Of the construction Of the Town
Hall, felcit.tes himself TIA. thst structure has
at least 60; good roof, and twits his rival with
the roof of the opers House, constructed by his
critic, which, he says, has settled six inches in
the centre, and eniangers the safety Of the audi
encea, IS the galleries are hung by rods from the
roof.
We have no opinion on the merits Of tie con-
t.oversy; but re must consider it unfortunate
for the appearance of the building that the Rut-
land Town Hall does not stand little higher on
its foundations. At present the brick walls seem
to rise directly from the surfsce Of the ground.

The Work of Three Years.

Three wears Of Gen. Grants Administrator
have passed away, and it can be truthfully
claimed for him that few Presidents have ever
been able to show better record, or have s'ooe
better with the people at the opening OF the
fourth wear Of their term There has been an
obvious purpose to administer the Government
with honesty and economy. The internal peace
Of the country has been steadily restored. Inc
dignity Of the Government has been sustained in
our relations with foreign powers, and 1t Is not
the Presidents fault if we have failed to settle
our disputes with England. Three hundfeu
millions Of dollGrs have been paid on account oil
the public debt Crest reductions in taxation
have been effected, and ye; the revenue has been
kept up to e point that has more than equallea
the large expenditure made necessary by the
war. Our credit has been maintained, go that
the prices Of our securities are much higher than
they were in 1869. 4 considerable part OF the
national debt has been funded at lower rates OF
interest, and there is prospect Of larger reiuc-
ton of interest on that debt. beginning nss
been made in the work of civil reform Our
Indian policy has been humane The army has
been reduced to the requirements OF mere

to rebels. States have been restored
strong blow has been struck at MormOnitm-
The general position Of the nation is Of the most
encouraging nature. and compares most sdyan-
tsseoufly with that Of any analogous period Of
history. Compared with that Of the third year
of Mr.. Buchansn's term, or with the close Of
Mr.. ?Linco,n's third yesr, the greatness OF
the chsure cannot fail to strike the observer
President Grant is not vain man; but he can
not but look back over the last three years with
much satisfaction. He will see some errors; but
taking matters in their entirety, the administrA-
ton Of our national atIairs, since the 4th Of
March. 1863, has been such that the chief ad-
ministrator can congratulate himself on the gen

The waters Of the Bay Of Fundy are at one
Point so near the Gulf Of st. Lawrence that 8
csnsl twelve miles long would make connection
between them. Such canal, deep enough and
broad enough for the passage Of ships, would be
of immense value to Canada, as it would shorten
by hundreds Of miles the route Of vessels bound
to American port, and the West Indies, and rave
them from the great ri.ks Of voyage down the
Gulf Of ST. Lawrence and along the coast Of Nova
Scotia. There is one difficulty in the way-the
difference between the tides of the Gulf Of st.
Lawrence, rising only five feet, and those in the
Bay, fifty or sixty feet high, but engineering

ceived favorable consideration from the Cana
dian board Of trade, at its recent session, and
