can make to it. The protest in substance
recites the following facts:
By the fourth and fifth sections of the
third article of the State constitution it
is made the solemn and sworn duty of
the Legislature to apportion the State,
and both the Senators and members of
the Assembly among the several counties
according to the number of their respec-
tive inhabitants. This duty is also de-
manded under the same provision of the
constitution which requires the basis of
Senatorial and Assembly representation
to follow al enumeration of the inhab-
itants every ten years after 1856. The
census of 1875 was duly taken and re-
ported to the Legislature on the opening
of the session of 1876, and for three years
the Democratic members have first asked
and then demanded that the fundamental
law should be obeyed. These repeated
requests have been as frequently denied
as they have been made. Under just
apportionment of the Senate, New York
city, with Richmond county, is entitled
to members, while represent that city.
Kings county is entitled to 8, but is al-
loved only 2, and this with surplus
population of 10000. New York city by
the lawful count 10 entitled to 81 mem
bers of Assembly instead OF ~. Kings
county is entitled to IA members instead
of 9, and Monroe county to instead of
3. These additional members, all be-
longing to Democratic districts, are now
awarded to the following counties and
are represented, except in one district, by
Republican members of the Legislature:
Madison, Delaware, Ontario, Cattarau
gus, Columbia, Washington, Niagara,
Wayne, Oswego, Oneida and st. Law
renee. The Assembly representative
population also gives the following un-
equal record: For the Fourth district of
Kings county, 63,975; Sixth district,
Kings, 5454S5; Eighth district, Kings,

cOmpelltor, IacetlouSiy says 1ne NE
vada Legislature, bad as it is, has done
the country service by incontinently
crushing the man who has the assurance
TO propose dragging such name into
the United States Senate. Besides, he is a
fraud. His attempt to play the part of
Democrat, when his Republicanism is so
clearly shown in his name, stamps him
rs SUCH"
The Carolinas seem partial to Govern
OTIS as Senatorial candidates. North Car
olina has Just elected Gov. Zebulon B.
Vance to succeed Judge Merrimon in
the Senate on the 9Th of next March.
Our readers will remember that Gov.
Vance in 1872 supported Judge Merri-
mon as the Conservative candidate for
Governor, and after he was defeated by
Caldwell he turned up as an opponent Of
Gov. Vance for the Senate. BY a union
of the Radical and s portion of the Con-
seryative vote Judge Merrimon was elec-
ted. In this election Gov. Vance had de-
cidedly the advantage, but the contest
would have been little uncertain had
not Judge Merrimon retired from the
race on the ground that he desired to
promote the harmony of the Democratic
party. This action ensured the election
of Gov. Vance, which has been received
throughout the country with pleasure.
Gov. Vance was General in the late
war, was the war Governor of North Car
olina and is q fine orator. He is pure in
politics, honorable in his private life and
able in statesmanship. North Carolina

with regularity and was present at
ifty-hve in succession in half dozen
different cities. He pestered the life
out of her and me. Then a circus
agent in this country wanted to marry
her, and pressed his suit with much
ardor, and half a dozen side-showmen
wanted to join with her in matrimony.
People often ask queer questions on
this subject, and will not credit that
she has received bona fde offers of
marriage. She has had as many lovers
as fall to the lot of the average young
woman, and here is one now-Count
Rosebud, gentleman"
The count is a very small man
about as long as an umbrella-and in
years more than thirty. He is one of
the attractions in the company of
which the Nightingale is the bright,
particular star, and has travelled in
the company with her for some years.
His love was of slow growth, and only
became a passion that he could no
longer restrain the expression Of after
two years acquaintance. Then love
took fast hold of him. He watches
her every movement; is miserable
when she talks to anybody else is
ferocious when she smiles on another,
and is in a perfect agony of despair
when she smiles not on him.
Do you love her, COUNT"
AS my life, monsieur but ali, she
no care for me as | for her. She is my
life light. What care | if the world
know my love?"
:" Would you marry herr"
To-day, could | be made so happy.
The count passed to an adjoining
room, where Mile Christine sat, anc
through the half-open door an inquisi
tive eye could have seen him STANDING
on tip-toe in front of har, reachinG
with one hand to each side Of her fac,
as if to caress her. The case forms
in fact, something of a parallel to tn,
story told by Victor Hugo in the fc
ton of The Man Who Laughs" anC
who, despite his terrible mutilation
was much loved.
