REAPP0RTIoNMENT.
Mr.. GRAVES moved that ITO. House bill
making an apportionment OF senators and
members OF the House of Delegates, be taken
up, out OF its order on the calendar.
General TALIAFERRO, as chairman OF the
committee, explained the bill. He said that
whilst he did not concur In the scheme in
many OF its particulars, yet he believed as a
whole it would be better to accept 1t than to
attempt to make changes, w ich might in the
end make it5Worse than 1t now is.
ts He said that he objected to the small
representation allowed to Richmond city,
with her large population and great taxable
values. She should be allowed not less than
five delegates. He also objected to the sena-
torial arrangement. His own district, tor
example, Tas given one senator, with forty
odd thousand population, whilst other dis
tricts with little over one half that popula-
lion were given the sameT esentatIon. He
explained the principle on which the bill
was framed-to wit, that representation
should, when it was possible, be given to
the small counties, even at the expense OF
the larger, so that every distinct community
within limits should have Its voice heard i'm
the Legislature. BE said this was the prin-

The history OF the finances Of Virginia

After such repeated pledges by Virginia,
and after a settlement by which she was
released from q third Of her debt, her rea-
sons for demanding further reductions are
I very weak. They certainly afford no pre-
textsor the arrogant and imperative manner
in which the Foreible Re&d iusters are pro-
posing to leglslate them out Of further re,

BY UNIVERSAL ACCORD.

AYERS CAT11ART1c PILLS are the best of
all purgatives for family use. They are
the product OF long, laborious, and sue
cessful chemical investigation, and their
extensive use, by Physicians in their prac-
tice, and by all civilized nations, proves
them the best and most efectual purgative
Pill that medical science can devise.
Being purely vegetable no harm can arise
from their use. In intrinsic value and
curative powers no other Pills can be
compared with them and every person,
knowing their virtues, will employ them,
when needed. They keep the system in
perfect order, and maintain in healthy
action the whole machinery of life. Mild,
searching and effectual, they are specially
adapted to the needs.of the digestive ap-
paratus, arrangements of which they
prevent and cure, if timely taken. They
are the best and safest physic to employ
for children and weakened cons titutions,
where mild, but efectual, cathartlc is
required.

Moody County Enterprise: Despite his
assertions to the contrary, some of our es-
teemcd contemporaries insist upon consider
ing Col. G. G. Moody, Of Yankton, candi-
date for the delegateship. We do not know
that he could be induced to allow the use of
his name in this Connection, but with his
marked ability and long experience in ter
ritorial affairs he could doubtless render
signal service to Dakota interests at the
national capital. Moody county was named
in honor of this gentleman-a circumstance
that at once reflects credit upon both the
colonel and our infant commonwealth.
Elk Point Courier: We understand that
it is the intention of the people o. Yankto n
county to trot Col. G. G. Moody out upon
the congressional race course. The gallant
Col. can number his friends by the thous-
and thr oughout the territory and will make
a good fight, and if nominated by tbs repub-
lican convention would be elected by good
round majority. We are informrd that
Judge Brookings, who opposed him six years
ago, and number of his friends are in favor
with the movement and will give the Col. a
hearty support.
Vermillion Republican: Col. G. G. Moody
is squarely on the track, or so we are inform
ed, for delegate to congress. We understood
he has perfectly strong backing In Yankton
and expects to use Benefits strength in the
convention for himself, as it is concluded by
many that Bennett has no chance offs i,omi-
nation.
