"Besscd are the pure in heart, for they shall
SEQ God"
Charlotte Abigail Macloy, the eldest aud
only living daughter of the Hon. Albert c.
Mackey, NJ. d., and Sarah Pamela Mackey
was born in Charleston, S. G., OH the 22d of
September, 1888, and died in Washington, D..
G., of hemorrhage of tho lungs, oil the 9th Of
June, 1870.
Through close and constant attention to a
sister, by whose side her mortal remains now
ropose, she contracted the germs of an insid-
ious disease which bafled all medical skill
and dcfied all care and attention. The un-
fathomable lovo of heart-strcken parents, the
affection of brothers, the solCtudo OF friends,
were powerles5 to save. Yet from the begin
ming to the end she bore the burden of her
Affections without a complaint, without even
whispered murmur, but with a heart bright
aud buoyant, with courage unsubdued, with
chcerfulnes5 that seemed never to desert
her and with n trust in Him who doeth all
things WE'LL this sweet spirit, which had
frightened with smiles aud beautihed with
love the homo which God had given her on
earth, threw of the riven and worn-out gar.
mcnt and rose triumphantly to q heavenly
and immortal life.
A more eloquent and faithful testimony than
speech can proclaim, more enduring monu-
mcnt than marble can perpetuatc, are the pre-
ci0us memories of a life from which thore is
nothing that those who loved her best and
grieve for her most would wish to efiace. Her
warm affection and fidelity to her friends, her
ardent and bOundless love for her father, her
mother, her brothers, her home, and her home
circle beautifully blended with the many vir-
tues which made up the moral portrait of this
Christian woman. The example of life we'll
spent and of duty well done is with us--the
rich reward is with her. In her church and
in all that was connected with it she was, while
in the enjoyment of health. u constant and
earnest worker. At home she was the trusted
adviser, tho atfectionate sister, the devoted
daughter. In her death the right arm of an
aged father lies withered and the aching heart
of mother is lonely and void but God in His
infinite mercy has sent q healing balm. The
flower still blooms, but in brighter and bet
ter land the star still shines, but in realms oil
endless light. FRATRES.

Such n consummatiOu Is devoutly to be
wished, not merely for the sake of the nation,
but also and greatly for the sake of the South.
As long rs she holds her present aggressive po-
litical attitude and strangles freedom within
her borders she will invite immigration
in vain. But when she sees her dream of po.
litical supremacy to be utterly futile and
brings her intellectual activity to bear upon the
development of her marvellous agricultural and
mineral resources and utilities her wonderful
advantages for commerce and manufactures,
the capital of the North and of Europe will be
quick to come to her aid. Then will she enter
upon new era Of progress and prosperity, and
out of 1t will come political power alike per-
manent and beneicent Her claim that intel
leCt aud property must rule will be realized,
not by shotgun and tissue ballot, but in a wider
aud truer significance and her political power
will then be heartily welcomed at the national
council.bOard, for it will then be national, not
sectional, in its aims, and will bode good and
not i'll to the Republic.
Until then tho Solid South, assauting the
best interests and even the life of the nation,
must be met by the Solid North as its staunch
defender and guardian.

pErERMrNED TO sTOr DuLL-DozrNG.

Aswil be seen by the proceedings published else
where OF the best citizens Oi Beat Five held
mass.meeting near Caseyville on the 18th instant
and declared against bull'dOzng We are Informed
that 200 men were present, and that the sentiment
against such lawleIsness as has been carried on in
this county for the last two years was very bitter
Next saturday another meeting of citizens will he
held near CaseyviIle Tor the purpose Ofiorming mil
itia COmpAuicS to nut down Dull-dOZlng, and every
man opposed TO the dcvilmcnt should attend the
meeting Citizens from that section inform us they
are determined, at all hazards TO break up bull
dOZng; that they intend calling on the Governor
for arms but if he refuses 10 furnish them they
will arm themselves aud carry the war 10 the bitter
end. II must be stopped, People had begun to
think there was more talk than anything else about
bull.dOZeTs, but now that some OF the best and
most prominent mon of Beat Five have publicly dc.
nounced them, II must be conceded that BULLDOG
ing is no longer myth but sad, stern reality that

Now here the damning secret is out. After
all the wrong Democratic editors and dema-
gOgues have done the locality where u con.
science should be--alter all the wrong done
GODS truth-aftor all tho cyasiors and lying
done by members of Congress and by invcsti-
eating committees, here comes the confession.
From the very heart of the region where in
timidatiOn aud political murders ragged comes
the confession that bull'dOzng, Iaplne, and
murder have become so mendurablc that even
the Democracy that has prohted by IL for years
must dcnOunce it. What horrible Teyela.
ton, however it makes OF the state of society
aud public morals. The most ultra Radical
could say no worse Of IT, 1t is confessed that
in that Democracy.accursed region there Is no
public sentiment of right or law to restrain
crime no civil officers or courts TO enforce law
or TO preserve the peace no lawful power TO
punish crime. Violence must be restrained by
violence, shotguns be put down by shotguns.
All those poor, besotted uncyilizod Democrats
oiMississippi know is club right Greensboro

We give the eaboyo extracts from Mississippi
and North Carolina journals, the former the
most besotted Of all the bull-dOzed States of
the South, and the latter the cradle which
rocked the Ku-Klux into active life, and
gave bul-dozing its first important send-oll'
in this country, If this confession is honest,
and San honest confession is good for the
"soul," Mississippi must be rapidly merging
into State Of political beatitudc, This
confession sounds qucerly in contrast with
the protestations Of LAMAR, SINGLETON,
and CHALMERS, uttered with so much ye-
hemence in the Halls Of Congress that there
has been no bull-dozIng in the State OF
Mississippi. We do not know 80 much

The reappOrtiOnmcnt under the tenth census
as given in the foregoing table, is calculated,
for convenience upon basis of about l55,0O0
to each member, making the number of men,
bers of the House of Representatives 300.
This is, of course, arbitrary, as any such cal
culation must be but, be tho assumed basis
of representation broadenod or reduced, the
relative proportion or representation Of each
State remains the same. .
To summarize the result Of this calculation
by geographical groups we find that the North
eastern States lose members, New York .,
and Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Rhode
Island, and Maryland l each, leaving a rep
rescntation of 05 members. The central
Northern States gain q, losing in Ohio and
gaining l in Wisconsin and 3 each in Illinois
and Michigan, making total represention of
Is members. The Northwestern States gain
13 in Nebraska, in Minnesota, in Iowa.
and in Kansas, giving them a representation
of 30 members. The Pacific States gain 2,
each in California and Nevada, giving them 8
members. The Southern States lose 7, Texas
and Missouri each gaining 3, Virginia, North
and South Carolina, Georgia. Florida, Missis.
sppi, Tennessee, Kentucky, and Arkansas
each losing and Alabama and Louisiana each
losing 2, leaving them total representation of
02 members.
This calculation is so carefully within bounds
! that the actual difference is much more likely
to be greater than less in favor Of the relative
preponderance of the Northern and North
western States 1t is based upon a probable
population in 1880 Of between forty-six and
forty-seven Millions while Mr. Elliott one of
our abest statstioians, estimates in the Stats
tical Atlas of the United States the probable
population as exceeding fifty millions. Should
this be the case the loss Of the Northeastern
States will not exceed members, while the
central Northern States will be likely to gain
| 8 instead of q, and the Northwest l5 instead of
10, and the South must lose II instead of
| to balance the account. Iu that event the rep
resentation of tho several groups will stand
| soInewhat as follows.

THE Democrats of the South are now
complaining for the reason that Senator
BLAINE did not enter the army during the
war to crush rebellion. They ought to be
well satisfied that he did not, for had he
been Mt the front and handled the rebels as
lie has since they began to appear in Con-
gress, Mr. SEwARDs prediction of ninety
days would have been verified, and there
wouldn't have been enough debris left OF the
struggle on that side to erect monument

BLACKBURN. He couldn't have said less
and he might have said much more by way
ofextolling the Confederacy. 1t is true he
attempted to draw a distinction between
rebellion and treason, and asserted that the
Southern rebels were not traitors, but he
did it with the oircumspectiOn Of man

ened our people to faint sense OF the
terrible reality of these oft-rccurring

stances where more lives were sacri-
feed. and think nothing of 1t, except
that they count in the long dark list OF
casualties, but when 1T occurs III our
midst, the victims friends, or those we
have known for years, it sinks into our
hearts with deeper significance.
Death on the rail assumes different
aspect. A sympathy we have never
