A bill has been introduced into
the New York legislature changing
the mode of choosing Presidential
electors in that State. The St. Paul
Dispatch in commenting on this bill,
says: It is proposed that each Con-
gressional district choose one Presi
Dental elector and that the two
electors at large be voted for by the
people of the whole State. The Of
feet would be to give Republican
elector to every Republican district,
a Democratic elector to every Demo.
cratic district, the two Senatorial
electors going with the majority
at large. As represented in the pres
ent Congress New York has "a Re-
publican and 9 Democratic districts.
Under the new bill the Democrats
might carry the State and still have
only II electors; whereas, under the
present law, if they should carry the
State they would have the whole IS.
But the Democrats might as well
have none Of the New York electors
as only IL Of them. They need ~
in addition to the 1873 Of the solid
South. New York with New Jer.
sey and Connecticut would give them
so; New York with Indiana would
also give them SO; and these four
doubtful States are the only ones in
which they have any chance at all.
But if New 7 ork elects by districts

State, will have only II Of its cleo.

4 Singular Affair.

For some six or seven weeks past
a boy named Seewald, son of John
Seewald Of Lake Prairie, has been
quite sick, suffering from inhamma-
ton of the bowels, and was unable
to obtain permanent relief. He was
very thirsty, and it seemed impos-
sible at times to quench his thirst
for water. He continued to waste
away until on the 9Th inst. he yo.
mited up small live animal very
much resembling a caterpillar, of a
dull yellowish color, about three
quarters of an inch long. This re-
lieyed him somewhat temporarily,
but the same. night he vomited up
two more of the caterpillars. He
now feels great relief, but is very
much reduced in flesh and strength.
It is hoped that he is now rid of the
last of his tormentors, and will rap
idly recover. We are informed that
an animal like these which he has
been relieved Of abounds in the
sloughs, and that the boy must have
drank them in some four months
ago. 1t is warning to avoid drink.

MAINE.

The events Transporting in Maine
during the past week were of very
exciting nature. At least three gov
ernors were chosen and endeav ored
to act, but Gen. Chamberlain per-
sistently refused to recognize Meth
err Lamson or Smith. The Repub-
lican legislature, as organized on
Monday the 18th inst, again met on
Saturday to receive the decisions of
the Supreme Court upon the ques-
lions submitted to it by them at their
Monday session. The decisions be-
ing in favor Of the Republicans,
they at once proceeded to the cleo
ton Of Daniel F. Davis as Governor.
Other State o1fic ers were also elected.
Gen. Chamberlain recognized Cover
nor Davis as the legally chosen ex-
ecutiye and at once surrendered his
charge to him. The State House is
still guarded but no serious trouble
is expected. The Fusionists held a
caucus on Monday, and sol far as
could be ascertained, determined to
hold out. Several members have ex.
pressed their decision to submit to
the will of the court and it was not
thought probable they could muster
a quorum in either house Oh Mon
day. An Augusta special of the
10Th says the Fusionists would be
refused admittance into the State
House, in which case it was feared
trouble might ensue, and the militia
had orders to hold themselves in
readiness to march at moments no.
tice. It's now highly probable that
the difficulty will be settled this
week and the legal legislature will
be allowed to transact business with.
out molestation.

A MADRID telegram of the 10th says
the village of Alcola del Jucar, situated In
the province Of Murc;a and containing pop

stroyed by landslide. Very many of the in
habitants were killed or wounded.
NEWS has been received from Persia
announcing a second defeat of the Russians

THERE was no session of the United
States Senate on the 18th. The House, in
Committee of the Whole, refused, by vote
Il 81 to Y, to pass favorably upon bill re-
fundtag $500 to Charles Clinton, late As
siStaat Treasurer at New Orleans, that being
the amount stolen from him in 1870 and re-
funded by him to the United States. 1t was
held by the opponents of the measure that it
had not been shown that due care had been
taken in guarding the money. The House
adjourned to the 10Th.
A WASHINGTON special of the 10Th to
the Chicago 1ribu,,e says Ouray had second
interview with Secretary Schurz, and it had
beea about determined to send him, Jack
and one other chief back to Colorado, in
charge OF an agent, for the purpose of bring
ing on, If possible, the twelve Ute murderers,
or as many of them as can be induced to
come. The dispatch continues: Gas there
is no law by which these Indians
can be tried or punished after they come
here, it is believed by those who
are informed in Indian matters that the in
tention is to play upon the fears of the In
dams with view to get as good terms a.
possible. Ouray has persisted from the first
that he has no power to bring in these In
dians He assures the Secretary that he can
not compel them unless he can kill them
first, which he is perfectly willing to under
take" =:
The Maine Supreme Court on the
10th rendered a decision on the questions
recently submitted by the Republican Legis-
laturc. The opinion was very, long, and
fully sustained the position taken by the Re-
publican Legislature, in effect deciding that
the latter is the only legal Legislature. A
remarkable feature of the decision was the
declaration that the act which provides that
no person shall be allowed to vote
or take part in the organization Of
either branch as member unless his
name appears on the certified roll of that
House in which he claims to act, is unconsti-
tutional. The Fusion Legislature met during
the day and elected Joseph L. Smith Gov
ernor. He qualified soon after and delivered
brief message. Later in the day he issued
an order relieving General Chamberlain Of
the trust confided to him by Governor Gar
celon. In the convention of both branches
of the Legislature an Executive Council was
elected and the following State officers
chosen: P. A. Sawyer, Secretary Of State;
Charles A. White, Treasurer; w. H. McClel-
Ian, Attorney General; NJ. NJ. Folsom, Adju-
t-General In the Senate no general
business was transacted, and In the House 8
Republican member was unseated.
