THE Legislature has before it again
the subject OF the representation Of the
State in the Forty-third Congress-
Gov. JACOBS hypothetical certificates
have deprived the people of each OF the
three districts OF the representation
they are justly entitled to, and it is a
little difficult to see just what the Leg
islature can do to remedy the wrong
The Legislative body, several years ago
in compliance with the Constitution OIL
the United States, fixed day for the
election of representatives. The Leg
islature has not changed the day, and
no Convention nor Other assembly
in the State has either had
or assumed to have authority to desig-
nate different day TOR that election. In
lis efforts to require the Governor TO
recognize the fourth Thursday OF Octo-
Der as the legal day for the compression
al election and to issue proper Ger
tifcates 10 the representatives chosen
on that day, the legislature has twice
solemnly declared its own opinion and
de-ire, but the Governor has evaded
compliance with the law. 1t seems TO
us that the question now, in so. far az
the Governors action is concerned is
enc for the Courts, and, although by no
means we'll versed in the modes Of Legal
procedure, we incline to think that
writ Of nandamus would lie to compel
; the Governor to issue the certificate re-
quirei by law. Having failed to COM
ply with the manifest intention OF the
legislature in one instance in relation to
this matter, is it to be presumed that
the Governor will be more obedient to q
new act in regard to the Congressional
election

A BILL was lately introduced into th'
National House of Representatives "te
increase the safety Of human lite upon
railroads" The bill in question re
q,ires all passenger trains on railroads
to lie provided with power brakes, to be
operated from the locomotive, by the
engineer; and all railroad companies
to make an annual report, on the 3Oth
O: June OF every year, giving the total
number OF passengers carried, the mum
Der of miles operated, the number OF
persons killed and wounded, the number
aud nature of the accidents, and the
amount Of damages paid for injuries
In support of this act Mr.. KING, OF
Missouri, stated that in the railway &C
cdents in Crest Britain and Ireland
during the years from 1852 to 1857,
there were 1907 persons killed and
1864, wounded and for the four years
from 1866 to 1869, inclusive, there were
95S killed and 32l wounded. In the
States Of New York and PenDsyl-
vsnia, from 1867 to 1871, inclusive,
there we're 3,lSl persons killed
and 1851 wounded by railway
Notwithstanding a much larger per.
centage OF destruction in this country
than in the United Kingdom. Mr.,
KING also gives list of twelve Of the
most destructive accidents on railways
that have occurred in this country, from
the Norwalk bridge disaster in 1858 to
the New Hamburg collision in 1871
and asserts that "seven of them at
least would have been prevented with
an effective brske-power." Those &C.
cidents which come from broken rail
or an unsafe bridge, it is not the design
Of this bill to prevent; il is intended to
decrease the danger OF collisions. nine
tenths OF which Mr.. KING conjectures
might either be prevented entirely, or
rendered comparatively harmless by a
pover-brake under the immediate con-
troll of the engineer. These power
brakes are worked either BY steam or
compressed air. In the course OF his
speech Mr.. KING repudisted the idea
that his bill was in the interest OF any
particular patentee, but was intended
simply to protect the lives and limbs OF
passengers using the railroads OF this
The subject is one that M
terests the whole travelling community,
and the movement of Mr.. KNe will
doubtless be productive Of good results.

Mr.. Merriek, Of Maryland


From the New York World.]
This gentleman in appearance Is the
exact counterpart OF WilliamM. Evarts;

powerful logic from the beautiful retho

1t was Mr.. Merrick'e painful duty to
defend the report of the Committee, OF

expulsion OF Messrs. AIMEE and Brooks.
Sep by step, in the most clear, logical.
and unanswerable argument he welded

against Messrs. Ames and Brooks, un-

ed this speaker in his speech. Instinct
ively the House and whole audience
telt that they were listening to an
honest man not only honest in the
conventional meaning of the word, but
honest when that much battered virtue
braves danger and sneers, and is consi'
dered out OF fashion. Would that the
whole country could have heard THE
Spartan Judge "a he delivered his great
| speech on the 25th of February. There
is no fear OF the republic being swallow

money powers and chronic corruptions
a. long ss the voice Of men like Mr..

and exhonorate the innocent" A ter

words.
How much more forcible were these

to exonerate the implicated members

badgering, seems to have no more Ell
iect on him than tightening on con-

even such Q clemsucy. Never mind,

The photograph Of this honest, able,

complete when it is stated that not only

to be a man of justice, honesty, and
