Mr.. Dorsheimer writes TO the New York
Sun that it is within his personal knowl-
edge that MIR. Tilden was not in favor of
the Electoral Commission. This is an
interesting fact, hut it does not prove the
unwisdom of that experiment. 1t was
not the fault of the advocates of this plan
that the odd member of the commission
happened to be Justice Bradley. They
could not foresee that a member of the
Supreme Bench would sell his soul as
cheaply as Judas lscaIot. And lament
able as has been the outcome of the great
counting-in conspiracy, who can say that
it will not prove better in the end for
patient and unrelenting democracy than
the result which possibly only resort to
arms and the spilling of fraternal blood
could have brought about? The mills
of the goods grind slowly, but, as Judge
Black says, they grind "dreadful fine,"
and 1880 is not SO far off that this defraud-
ed people need waste any regrets over
what might have been. The Republican
party is already reaping i'll the Presidents
betrayal of its practical interests terri
bic reward for its sins, and three yeaB
hence its ghost only will confront the

Here end in France, and various other
places, legislative elections are based
upon population. There is desire, and
| there promises soon 10 be strong endea-
vor, to adopt the same principal in Eng
land. In the city of London (that is, in
what was the ancient capita) there are
22,500 electors, who return four members
of Parliament, giving one member to 81
625 electors, or as the gross population of
the city is 10000, here is only one mem
Der to every 1850 Inhabitants. In
Liskeard,an out-of-tne-way little borough
i'll Cornwall, with $500 inhabitants, there
were 450 electors before Dsraeli's reform
bill of 1867, and there now are 7S7, who
send one member to Parliament. Thus,
man living in Lskeard has seven times
the voting power of a man living in the
commercial capital Of the British Empire.
In Rutland; the smallest English county,
LIZA electors return Two members, while
biddleseX, the metropolitan county,with
10000 electors, also returns two. Thus
tke number of seats in Parliament in
many places is absurdly out of propor-
ton with the number of voters. The
proposed mode of rectifying this is to
assimilate the borough and the county
franchise. This done, there must be a
redistribution of seats, according to popu-
lation. Before the reform. bill of 1882,
Old Saruin, within two miles of the fine
old city of Salisbury, originally Roman
station, and subse quently the residence
of the West Saxon Kings, had dwindled
down to two huts, inhabited by three
men, tenants of nobleman, and these,
three literally at their owners bidding,
returned two members to Parliament
The American system of representation,
based on population, cannot be long kept
out of England.
