pared for hun. His proposition was 20 take

.,.,.u wi,, New England Influence.

from the Cnlpcpt Ob5erVer.1
Before many years the people of the
United States WILL demand change In the
Constitution, which gives each State, WIN
out reference to Its size or population, TWO
senators in Congress. New England has
twelve senators, which gives her. q power
far beyond that to which. taking her
popua,ion into consideration, she ought
to be entitled. That power has rare.
" been exerted for good. but has
been exercised in producing discord and en-.
nifty between the people OF the different ser
lions of the Union in creating and fostering
nonopolies and in passing such laws as have
enabled her people 10 grow rich at the eX-
pensc Of the other sections. New York, with
nearly double the population, has only one
sixth of the power In the Senate, and TWO
hundred and odd thousand people in Rhode
Island have an equal power with four mil
lions in New York. This. it seems to US, is
Intensely wrong.
New York, with one-tenth of the popula-
ton of the United States, has only ono.
thirty-seventh of the power in the Senate.
whilst New England, with about one.tif-
tecnth of the population, exercises one
sixth of The power, or about six times as
much rs New York-or, to put it in dlt-
ferent shape, one man in New England IS
equal to six men in New York. There Is
no sense in any such arrangement, and the
Injustice inflicted upon other sections
of the Union should induce them 10
unite in an effort to effect its overthrow.
Iftbe number Of senators were limited to
eighty. and the country divided into senate,
rial districts containing about five hundred
thousand people each, the different sections
| would be represented exactly in proportion
TO their population. New England would
lose AZ least half her senators, which would
be nil she ought really to be entitled to, ana
her power for mischief diminished in the
same proportion. A New Highlander would
then. no matter what his own opinion OF him.
stlf might be, be equivalent to only one New
Yorker instead fisk. Under the present sys-
ten descendant Of those hard-headed and
| harder hearted fellows who came over ID the
| MAY Flower, is equal TO three OF the de-
>ccrdants Of those who settled mt james
town. We believe that it would he difficult
| ro find a Iarkec who does not consider
himself, in person, in manners. in under
standing, and in morals, especially and par
tirularly, as fully equal to three of the best
Virrin;uns that eycrliycd. The Firginians,
Of course, do not agree with them rs gen.
e,ul thing. but wc are afraid there are some
scaIuwags W no maintain this superiority, and
who are willing to submit to any assumption
Yankee may choose to make.
The Yankees could not object to this
change, because it accords with their theory
of the Government, which refuses to recog-
niz. Slate rights, and because it would ap-
ply to the Senate that principle Of the Decla-
r,iion of Independence, which they pre-
tend to admire, that all men are equal as
well as free.

A REPUBLIC VS.. A MONARCHY From the
New York Trtbune.l How much better it
is to live in free and easy republic than to
chafe and groan under the artificial distinc-
tons Of a bloated aristocracy. In the beau
,iful capital of the United States the meanest
citizen can get Il paving contract and become
leader Of fashion. 1t is true that attempts
are made from time to time to establish GER
tain rules of precedence among the ladies of
the court, but such definitions have
no official recognition, and are never
observed at the Inauguration ball. No fac
titious Importance is bestowed upon good
manners or u good name. No. unfair
preference is shown to education. ANY
gentleman who has made million by
selling shoddy caps to the soldiers, or dis.
pensing blankets, whiskcy, and brass buttons
to the Indian wards of the nation, may hope
! to be mentioned in the newspapers as some
Of our most eminent citizens" (which Is
equivalent in the American peerage to q
duke, or at least marquis); and when we
read in history Of the street fights which
have sometimes attended the struggles of
rival ambassadors for prior presentation ut
court, we can point with pride to the recent
reception of the blue-blood Boston mer.

We suppose that West Virginan might

his State assuming any part of what many
in that State hold 70 DC the debt of Virginia

in West Virginia who would avow himself
TO be favorable to such union; and Judge

GLOUCESTER COUNTY ITEMs.-[From the
Gloucester Herald, May 30tb.l "A great
many peas are being shipped from various
parts of the county. When We last heard
they were bringing 81 per barrel.
New Irish potatoes are making their ap-
pearance at private houses, and several ship
ments will be made next week.
Those who have taken the trouble to Gull
tivate strawberries are enjoying an album
dance. Those who have not, don't deserve
such luxury.
Mr.. Ascher, of Concord, has put in the
ground this Spring over thousand dollars
worth of vegetable seed, and has every chance
for q good profit on his investment.
We are Informed that there is flock Of
sheep in Gloucester OF ITO, which cost $3.50 !;
that this flock will pay this year in lambs
$40, and in wool S240--showiDg gross
profit Of 500.
We have taken the trouble to inquire, and
have ascertained that not one of our Glou-
cester farmers have rs many sheep as they
might reasonably keep, and that at least a
third of them have none but as to dogs,
there is no counting them.
The early white wheat has great deal Of
rust on the blades. So far there is no ap-
pearance of it on the stalk.
There Is an almost universal appearance
of improvement throughout the county, but
there never was time when money was
Scarcer, and the reason is a want of medium
Of exchange. We are poor and poorer, and
will be until the currency is increased.
From what We understand, it is more
than probable that the colored people Of this
county would, if any one would take the
pains 10 draw up the paper for them,
petition Congress to leave out the mixed
school provision of the civil-rights bill; they
have sense enough to prefer their schools to
a pitiful act Of Congress.

Colonel Benjamin II. Bristow, whose nom.

sent by the President TO the Senate, is ma
tive Of kentucky, and at present resides in
Louisville, where he began the practice Of
law at the close OF the war, having previously
been Il resident of Hopknsville. Soon after
he removed to Louisville he was appointed
District Attorney for Kentucky, and fulfilled
the duties of that position with such signal
ability that few years ago the President
called him to Washington to ill the position
of Solicitor General. He was the first in
cumbent of this Office. which was created by
the law under which the Attorney Generals
Office was recognized as the Department Of
Justice. The high talents and extensive legal
requirements which had marked Colonel
Bristow as one Ct the foremost lawyers OF
his native State soon made for him very
enviable reputation at the national capital.
He resigned the Office of Solicitor General to
become connected with the Southern Pacific
railroad in IN important and lucrative posi-.
ton, which he still holds.-Baltlmore Anser-

HOTEL RIGHTS AND CIvIL.RGnrs CONVEX
yESTIoN OF Observation-Disclosures, May -,
1SI4-In the event of the civil-rights bill
now pending before the House of Repre-
sentatiyes becomes Il law, the hotckkee pers
Of Macon propose to call a convention OF the
landlords of the State, to meet here ar an
early dav, TO take SUCH action as will
protect them in the rights Of their
property. When We look into the pro-
visions of this proposed law it will at
once be seen that no class of persons
will be more seriously, if not more
ruinously, affected than the keepers
Of our hotels, inns, and boarding-houses. 1t
will at once be granted that negroes cannot
be admitted upon terms of equality 10 their
houses; that if they are no white people Will
90 there, for there is scarcely a white man or
white woman in the United States to-day
who would willingly sit at the same table
with an African, and certainly none who
would sleep in the same bed and wash
out of the same bowl. The vital point
with them, therefore, is to devise
some scheme 10 evade the law. They
entertain no doubt about negroes
making many persistent efforts to gain adj
mission, not that they really care to do so,
but with the hope that they will be refused,
and give them a chance of raising the five
hundred dollars out of the proprietor, as
stipulated by the provisions Of this, the most
internal bill ever enacted since the birth of
the devil. In this proposed convention a
protective union might be formed and com.
mon fund pledged, with which to fight the
la y in every way and in every form which can
be devised. They can also frame petition to
the Legislature to so change the license law
that hotel will no longer be known as such,
but transformed into private residence, into
private intirmaries, into private hospitals,
into anything which will defeat the devilish
Vaccinations of the Radical party to destroy
the value of their property. They are
obliged to either successfully resist it or
close their doors, and in order to do this
etlectually they had better get together and
fall upon one plan of action. Any one
almost knows the years of toll and trouble
and the immense outlay of money it takes

SAMUEL JAUDoN DEAD.-Samuel Jaudon
died yesterday at the advanced age of eighty
years. In 1882 he became the cashier of the
United States Bank, and under his manage
ment that institution reached that point of
prosperity and influence which excited the
apprehension of President Jackson, who by
an unexpected exercise of the prerogative Of
his office directed the removal Of the national
deposits. Mr.. Jaudon ut that time had allied
himself both by ties of friendship and politics
with Daniel Webster. Mr.Jaudon established
another institution, known as the United
States Bank of Pennsylvania, and so great
was his prestige that his name as its cashier
secured the confidence of the merchants Of
this country.-Ne1o York Tribune.
