The latest manifestation of the malevo!ent

The latest manifestation Of the malevolent
fsslicps entertained BY the sta|wart. and COZ
trollirg, wing Of the republican party toward
their fellow citizars of the South and OF their
desire to secure possession Of the House OF
Representatives at any coat, is afforded by their
proposition to deprive the South of seven rep
resen,atives. upon the groundless assertion that
the iatimidation Of negro voters 10 South Caro-
lioa, Mississippi and Louisiana, OF the recent
election, was sufficient to cause it the loss ct that
number, under the fourteenth ameIdmentto the
Constitution, which provides that tho basis OF
representation shall be reduced 10 proportion
with the punber Of citiz ens who have been de-
MED the right of suffrage. AS. however, they
base their estimate of The Dumocr OF those
denied the hight to vote solely upon the falling
of in the vote ia the States referred to. We
don't see Why they limit The proposed reduction
to seven, or why they restrict its operation to
the three States alluded tc; for it is we'll
known that tho falling eff in the vote for
c,pgressmen at the last election was greater
10 several of the other southern States than
1t was 10 either of those mer'i med. lo
Virginia, for instance, the vote was 80 small
as to b. the subject Of general remaik,
the total vote of some of the successful cardi.
dates beiog less than their former maio1ities.
IfSouth Carolina, Mississippi, and louisiana
are to be deprived Of their constitutional repre-
sentation, let the rule be general in its apphcs'
ton, and embrace Virginia also and all the States
10 which the vote Was smaller than expected.
The whole proposition, however, isridculous, as
it depends upon democratic support for success,
and We merely allude 10 it TO show what the
radicals would do if they bad the power.

Major Truman and Family in
Peril.

One of the most famous whips
upon the Pacific Coast is Buffalo
Jim,n who has driven all over the
slope during the past % years, and
Is well-known to thousands OF
tourists and travellers. On Satur-
day last, however, this celebrated
Jehu had his hands full. He was
driving over the Yosemite road,
with stage full of passengers, and
was within about thirteen miles of
Merced. B. G. Truman, Special
Agent of the Postoflice Department,
was on the outside with Jim, and
just remarked that the nigh wheel
er seemed to be ill at ease, when,
suddenly, the animal alluded to
gave two or three kicks from be-
hind, which smashed in the dash.
board, and sent the contents OF the
forward boot waltzing all over that
peculiar compartment. In au in
slant the whole team took fright
and ran at a terrific speed. Jim
got his faithful break into such a
position that both of the hind
wheels were checked in their evolu-
tions, but on dashed the vehicle
like the wind. Jim held the break
as if in a vice; and, hatless and
whipless, pulled at the reins with a
giants strength. The inside
passengers were thrown up and
down with great violence, and once
Mrs. Truman's little girl was
thrown clear out of her arms. The
teams still dashed on with unabat-
ed speed and fury, but Jim never
betrayed an emotion of fear until
within a hundred yards of an ugly
arroyo, when he handed portion
of the reins to Truman and said:
"This thing must quit or we are q
goner!" At this stage, in addition
to the extra pull at the reins and
the unflinching grip of the break,
| the team became exhausted, and
the arroyo was crossed safely, with
out break of buckle or strap. In
ten minutes after the stage arrived
at Merced Messrs. Washburn and
Bruce had the fractious horse turn
ed out of the stage stable into the
freight team corral. "Buffalo JIM
