Under the provisions of the new
Constitution, an entirely new Legisla-
ture will be chosen in 1876. The Sena.
tors chosen in 1873 will serve three
years; those chosen in 1874 will serve
two years, and those chosen in 1875
will serve one year. With the next
session OF the Senate, therefore, the
torms of all the Senators will expire,
and the election in 1876 will be for POI
members of the House, to serve for
two years, and so members of the
Senate. The Senatorial districts are
numbered from l to so, inclusive; those
chosen in 1876 from the even numbered
districts will serve two years, and those
from the odd numbered districts FOR
four. At all elections subsequent to
1876, Senators will be chosen for four

THE THIRD TERN MovE.--The last
issue Of Forney's Sunday Chronicle has
a long article declaring that Grant is
The only man in the country who can
save the Republican party, and favor
ing him for third term. 1t basis its
hopes upon a statement which 1t makes,
and which decidedly squints at the
new and groundless issue which is to
be forced by the Republicans upon the
country. 1t says; Governor Hayes,
after the campaign was over in Ohio,
stated in the Executive Mansion, in
Harrisburg, Pa, while guest of Gov.
Hartranft, that the educational ques-
tion had given the Republicans the
victory in the Buckeye State. 1t was
Grant who made that question a Re
publican issue, in speech delivered
a few weeks previous to the Ohio
election" ga
