THE Committee on Elections i'll the
House at Washington has made very
short work with most of the contested
election cases which it has considered
since the meeting of Congress, the only
case in which n change has been recon-
mended being the Campbell and Cannon
case from Utah, the Committee report
irg against both claimants. Most of
the contests came from three or four of
the Southern States and rested on the
most fimsy foundations, as is conclu-
sively shown by the fact that thus far
not a single one of the contestants has
succeeded in satisfying the Committee
that his claim possesses any merit. Con-
testing a seat in Congress would be a
rare thing were it not for the liberal
paw which is always given to the man
who makes it.

GUITEAU's counsel, Mr.. Scoville,
states that as soon as he completes the
bill of exceptions to the rulings Of the
Court, which he expects to do in few
days, his connection with the case will
cease and other counsel will conduct the
argument before the Court of Appeal.
Guiteau is anxious to secure the service
of Benz. F. Butler, and It is thought
that the latter will consent to appear as
his counsel, Judge Black. who is well
acquainted with Buffers peculiarities as
a lawyer, once said of him that when he
defends prisoner indicted for murder
a conviction don't in the least frighten
him-that in fact he regards it only as
the beginning of the struggle to save
his clients life-that he after wards re-
sorts to all legal oXpedients for delay,
and that he will never abandon all hope
until the hangman at last adjusts the
rope around the murderer's neck. The
end of Guiteau will not therefore be
much of a surprise to such a veteran
criminal lawyer rs Butler, after he has
done in his behalf every thing that legal
ingenuity can suggest.

MAHONE's Virginia Legislature ad-
jouned finally on Saturday last, but his
Governor (Cameron) called it to meet in
extra session on Tuesday last to perfect
some items of unfinished business, the
Congressional disJTicting of the State
being one of them. The bill was re-
ported before the final adjournment, and
as a specimen Of what is Familiarity
known as a .'gerrvmander, " it surpasses
all previous infamies in that peculiar
lire Of legislation. The State is en-
titled to ten members, and Malone, in
the true spirit of robber, has caused
the districts to be so fearfully and won
derfully formed as to make sure of eight
reputation scOundrels, giving the Dem
Ocrats the two remaining members, The
ratio for member under the bill recent
II passed by Congress is about 154, 900,
but by Mahone'5 plan one of the two
Democratic districts will contain 1S5,
600. and the other 100. 900 inhabitants,
while the eight Readjuster districts will
contain an average OF only 13l, 600 of a
population. If villainy like this can
thrive, popular government is a farce.

A SPECIAL ELECTION took place In
the Eighteenth New York; Senatorial
District on Tuesday of last week, to fill
the vacancy caused by the recent death
of Webster Wagner, Republican. The
district is composed of five counties and
gave Wagner at the last November cleo
tioE a majority of about 5000 At the
election last week, Baucus, the Demo-
cratic candidate. was elected over Stan
ford. his Republican opponent. by about
500 majority. This result is one of the
the most remarkable revolutions in the
history of political parties. So certain
were the Republican members of the
Senate of Staudford's election. that the
placed were all selected, and Stamford
informed of the arrangement in advance
of the election. OF course this result Is
not claimed as a Democratic victory,
per Sc, but it is most emphatic and
crushing protest against the late corrupt
coalition between Gov. Cornell and Jno.
Kelly, hy which the Legislature from
being Democratic in both branches was
made hybred, Republican -Ta,nmany TO
promote certain personal interests Of
Kelly. In addition to this, it shows the
utter decentralization to which the Re-
publican party in that State has been
brought. growing out of the bitter fight
between the friends and enemies of Ros-
coe Conkling.

THE Washington correspondent of
the Pittsburg Post, in hissletter 20 that
paper dated on the 4th instant Gast Sat
urday), says that Geo. q. Ellison was
the clerk of the Committee on Manufac-
lures, of which Congressman Campbell,
of this district, was made chairman at
the commencement of the present ses-
sion, aud that majority of the Com
mittee, Democrats and Republicans
alike, wanted him retained. General
Campbell, however, had a man named
Phillips. from one of the countiss in
this district, but which we can't say.
whom he desired to put in the place.
and under the power given him by the
rules OF the House he appointed said
Phillips, subject to the approval of the
Committee. And just here the joke
comes in. When Gen. Campbell, as
chairman, put the question on the con-
firmation of Phillips, he received but
one vOte--that of Campbell--while all
the other members of the Committee.
who were friends of Ellison. voted in
the negative. Phillips was thus reject
ed and Gen. c. refused to put the ques-
tion on Ellison's election. Phillips is
still acting as clerk, but the Committee
say that he will not be paid anything.
The feeling in the Committee against
Gen. Campbell's action is said TO be very
bitter, and how the quarrel will eventu-
ally be adjusted remains TO be sesn.
