DEAR JOURNAL: The time Of the
Convention has been mostly taken mp
with submitting propositions OF
amendment to the Constitution which
are all referred to appropriate com
mittees.
Mr. Mann, on Friday last, submit
ted a proposed amendment which is
Of considerable interest to his con-
stituents, and is as follows:
That Section 4th of Article lst of
the Constitution be so amended as to
read; Representatives shall he dis
" tributed throughout the State as
" follows; the qualified electors of
leach county shall elect one addition
" al member for each 35, 900 inhabi-
" tants, as determined by the preced-
" ing census of the United States; and
" in counties entitled to three or more
" members each voter may cast as ma
" ny votes for each candidate as there
are representatives to be elected, or
" may distribute the same among the
" candidates AS he shall see fit, and
" the candidates receiving a majority
/" of said vote shall be declared elect
led. Referred to the Committee on
" Elections, Suffrage, etc"
have prepared the following table
to show how the Representatives
would he distributed should this pro-
position be adopted. 1t will be seen
that until the next census the House
of Representatives would contain l37
members, and until there is a change
in the political sentiment of the people
of the State would give the Republi-
cans 10 to Is majority.

FLOODS.

Trr mgnest water Of last week, of
which we had a slight indication on
Thursday and Friday, did great dam
age in many parts of the country
from New England to the Mississip-
pi." The most serious disasters APP
pear to have been in this state and
New Jersey. In the Schuylkill there
was a jam of ice three miles long. On
the Allegheny considerable damage
was done, and on the Susquehanna
and its tributaries but the sudden fall
ing Of the water prevented many in
juries that seemed imminent.
