The Geo. I. Davenpors mortgage.

The Democrat Gays that "Mr. Henry
Jayne, Of the firm of Brannan & Jayne,
Muscatine, is in the city to-day. Mr.Jayne
comes here as agent of the Equitable Trust
Company, of New Haven, to look into mat
tiers connected with the Geo. L. Davenport
mortgage. The result of his investigation
was the discovery that the amount now due
and unpaid on the mortgage is SIZE, 900;
and that according to his appraisement of
the property SO mortgaged its present value
is about $4,000. The Equitable Trust
Company has served the necessary ten
days notice that it elects to consider its
whole mortgage due on the ground of de-
fault in payment of installments of interest
and non-payment of taxes, and will, at the
end of that time, begin foreclosure pro-
ceedings in the courts Of this county. The
original amount of the mortgage was for
$95. 900, and was given in 1875. 1t covers
the south half of the block between Brady
and Perry and Third and Second, and also

Minority representation in Congress.

Minority Representation in Congress.
A special to the Chicago Times says
that "a bill is in process of preparation at
Washington having for its object minority
representation in congress. 1t will proba-
bly, be introduced in the house soon after
the reassembling of congress. II propo-
ses to have the legislature of each state,
after the apportionment of the next cen
sus, SO re-distriet the states that the minor
ity as we'll as majority will be entitled to
represention. The plan proposed is an
ingenious one, and IF in force at the last
election, would have secured from the
south over thirty republican members,
twenty of whom would have been colored
men, while, on the other hand. the demo
Gratis would have gained corresponding
number, in the north. By this plan, if
carried out at the next election. supposing
that there is no political change among
the people, the democrats will have a
small majority, but all parts OF. the coun
try alike will be represented by repubh-
cans as well as democrats.
The plan is SO to divide each state into
districts that the districts may as far as
possible be entitled to elect either three or
FIVE members each. thus permitting the
| majority of the voters to elect two out OF
three or three out of five. In case the
district is entitled to three representatives,
each elector can vote for tive candidates
and no mora. In case the district is en-
titled to five representatives, each elector
can vote for three candidates, and nc
more. Where state is entitled to only
1.-TWO representatives, as in the case Of
Rhode Island and Florida, it is to be di
yided into two districts, each electing one
!. member, as at present, as in this case
majority and minority representation
would be impossible. 10 all cases where
there is an odd representative, after tht
state has been divided as nearly as posi-
bic into districts to be represented b.
three or five members, a separate distric
! is to be set apart for this representative
who is to be elected as at present. Tn
, effect of this bill will be to break up tn
, solid south, and secure to the coored peo
pie representation 10 congress. 1t
, argued that it il were passed 1t would re
move the objections raised by Senate
, Blaine to the present lack of representa-
. ton of the colored population of the south
1t is not expected that the bill will pass a
the present session of congress, but it wi
be introduced, in order to attract publ
q attention and excite public discussion o
| the subject, preparatory to its reintrt
duction in the next congress.

Chicago, the firm of StOtthauer & Co. be-
ing creditors to the amount of 81, 100. The
balance of liabilities are distributed in
New York, Philadelphia, and among the
wooden mills. Mr.. WivilI says he has
been trying to avoid the failure, but that
the shrinkage Of values, depression in
trade and scarcity of money has finally
forced suspension. One thing that has
operated against the firm has been the
placing on the market of bankrupt stocks,
by firms who failed and compromised,
which were sold at prices impossible Of
