For. years they have been ,preiicting
that the census OF 1880 would shog
hut little growth in the South as aRaiTst
large grainBin the NORTH, and ,tiisf the
Congressional appertionr1ent based unon
II would consequently greatly dimitiish
the strength Of the forlder section, boil.

Electoral college. Disgnsteti at che dis.
