cox's BILL REPORTED TO THE HOUSE.
Special Telegram to the Pioneer Press.
WASHINGTON, January 24-Mr. Cox's
committee on the census helda meeting to-
day, and agreed to report his apportion-
ment DILL to the house, increasing the num-
her ef representatives given in the bill from
301 to 81, which was subsequently done.
A further amendment was adopted, strk
ing out the last two sections of the bill, as
follows:
Sec. 2. That whenever new state Is
admitted to the Union the representatives
assigned 10 it shall be added to the rumher.
Sec 3. That in each state entitled un
der this apportionmert the number to
which such state may be entitled to the forty
eighth and each subsequent congress, shall
be elected by districts composed of con-
tiguous territory. and containing, rs near
rs practicable, an equal number of inhab-
itants. and equal in number to the repre-
sentaiives to which such state may be Ell.
titled in congress, no one district electing
more than ore representative.
The striking out of the second section
would involve new apportionment upon
the admission of each new state, and it is
believed was adopted to place obstacles in
the way of such admission; but a strong
effort will be made in the house to restore
it. The basis of representation for 31l is
1853, 745, and the states that would gain one
member each by the increase from 800 to
81, are Florida. Georgia, Indiana, Nilsson
ri, New York, North Carolina, Ohio,
Pennsylvania, Tennessee and Virginia
MIR. Sherwin of Illinois presented minor
ity report providing for 3l9 members,
which is considered more equitable to the
Northern states. Cox intends to press his
bill Tor 3Ol members. The new basis of
appurtionment was rs follows:

The attachments on the stock of P. Fl.
Clague, of Herman. have heen set aside,
80 that now all creditors will share alike
In the benefit of the assets. This suggests
the thought that there should be some
bankrupt law, either state or national, that
would insure to all creditors alike, in cases
of insolvency. their just percentage of the
assets. AS it is now it is II great tempta
tion for some hungry creditor, and they
are ever the smallest, to put an attachment
onto a dealers goods, and TINS secure the
whole of his own claim while lie at the
same time closes up man who, with a
fair Glance mig pay every dollar of his
Indebtedness Under the present system,
as soon as it is known that debtor is Il
little shaky. every creditor at once becomes
suspicious of all the other creditors. this
feeling grows, until some one or them
brings matters to a crisis by attaching his
stock. A law embodying the features
referred to above, would remove all such
temptation to creditors for they, knowing
shat the law would protect their interest
would be in no hurry to close a man up
Thus it will be seen ut glance that such
law would benefit both debtor and credi.

Words Of Wisdom.

When friend couects fault III you,
he does you the greatest act of friend
ship.
Favors of every kind are doubled when
they are speedily conferred.
A man may suffer without shining, he
cannot sin without suffering.
Ragged clothing cannot debase man
as much as a frayed reputation,
It is not lie to live for ones self alone,
Let us help one another.
Peoples intentions can only be decid-
ed from their conduct.
1t is to be doubted whether he will
ever find the way to heaven who desires
to get thither alone.
Poverty often deprives man of all
spirit and virtue 1t is hard for an
empty bag to stand upright
1t is with You as with plants; from
the first fruits they bear we learn what
may be expected in future.
Envy is a passion so full of cowardice
and sham that nobody ever had the con-
fidence to own its possession.
The very Affections Of our earthly pill
grimages are prestiges of our future
glory, and shadows indicate the sun.
Be courteous with all, but intimate
with few; and let those few be well
tried before you give them your con-
hdence.

Substitutes for Lumber,

We are in receipt, from Mr.. s. W.
Hamilton, of Lawrence, Kansas, of a
sample of lumber made from straw, man
ufactured after aprocess patented by HIM
SELF the particulars of which he does not
explain. He informs us, however, that
he can manufacture lumber like the sam
pie sent, in any desired length, from II
feet upward and to 32 inches in width,
at cost competing with the better or
finishing grades of pine, although he
does not inform us whether this compe-
tition will apply equally to sections
where lumber is comparatively cheap, as
at Chicago, and at Western grain pro-
ducing points, as at Kansas We imagine,
however, that the expense will vary but
little at any point where straw is obtain
able in large quantities.
The manufacture is, of course, con-
fined to grade which will compete with
the better class of lumber, as there would
be no object in filling the new product
with knots, and shakes would scarcely be
obtainable even if desired, while sap and
decayed wood must be impossibilities,
The sample sent t5 us will hold a nail
as well as wood, is equally susceptible
to high painting finish, and can be
polished to as high degree as is at all
desirable. Being made waterproof, we
can discover no possible reason why it
should not be as durable, OF even more
so, than pine or even oak, while its
adaptability is evidently as great for
roofing purposes, as for the fine work of
a dwelling.
The question Of cost appears to us to
be the most important element yet to be
solved. We can see no rea-
son why it is not susceptible of being
worked under the plane or other ordi-
nary tools of the carpenter, and when
once ttted TO It's place, we can readily
believe that it will be free from shrink
age or swelling. In appearance, the
before us resembles hardwood,
being about Us dark as oak and more
dense in texture, with specific gravity
one-fifth greater than thoroughly sea-
soned black walnut. For finishing pur-
poses, it will not, as Il rule, be necessa-
rily as thick as ordinary lumber, its ten
sile strength being apparently double
that of wood of the same thickness. On
the whole, we are favorably impressed
with the appearance of the new artificial
lumber ~ Y. LuB,berDdn.
