MEMBERS OF HOUSE.

The Board has certainly cut up representa-
tive districts into small enough divisions this
time. So far - the Council Is concerned We
believe this matter Of districting counties
proper, the system being analogous to that Of
Congress where the Senate IL formed without
regard to the population Of the several
states, but the rough and irregular appor-
tionment for the House does not commend
itself. It does not approach uniformity or
proportion either, taking population or elec-
tors Is basis, and is open TO very serious
criticism. II would have been much better
had the House representation been more
equally apportioned by districts. This how
ever Is merely temporary, rough and
ready work and Is . great deal better than
the Legislators did, although not 80 good -
they might have done. The Thirteenth
Session will have an opportunity TO try itself
on the problem.

THE following communication in New
York paper of the Goth, evidently from one
we'll informed or specially informed attract
ed considerable attention:
"For a long time the street has asked
when Jay Gould would be ready to "bull"
the market. The answer Is very simple. /
am astonished that some enterprising paper
has not given 1t before. 1t Is simply "never."
Mr.. Gould has already retired as an active
manipulation, daily operator, and will hence
forth, be more of large investor and locker
on-nothing more nor less. He is worth at
least $100, 000, 900, and 10 about to become
president of the Western Union Telegraph
Company, with vast railway interests that
require his constant attention. What other
course is open to him? There was . time
when his whole time and attention was given
to accumulating. Now his whole time and
attention are demanded by his sccumula-
tions. You ought to have no difficulty In
proving the truth Of my assertion. The
quicker the public understand that Jay
Gould has retired the quicker bull move
ment will 60 on without him."

There must be something attractive IN
Parkersburg for your insurance men.
While the Griffin affair is still fresh In
our minds. and the imprecatiOns against all
wild cat insurance companies are sull
audible there appears upon the scene
new actor, one Ralph Sharrock
who represents himself to be general agent
TOR the "West Virginia Mutual Aid As
sociation. - and has been soliciting risks in
this city for the above mentioned company.
Now, we do not denounee the W. Va. NJ.

risks which the agent is soliciting is not
such AS are generally accepted by reliable
and first-ClaSS life companies. An old
colored man. Elijah Brown, with one foot
in the grave, and aged 50 years. was yester-
day presented to the medical examiner,
and after this form had been gone through
with. a policy OF 81 900 was written up Tor
the old gentleman. Other persons ranging
from 90 to so years OF age have been soiiCl-
ted to insure in this company.
About year ago. one Madam Jelly, who
had for many years been the proprietress
of a house of prostitution, in this city and
had accumulated quite a large amount OF
property here. was compelled to yield to
the influences of better state of morals
which was inaugurated about that time,
and disposed of her property at sacrifice.
Now. il seems, there is likely TO be some
trouble in store for the purchasers OF the
Madam's real estate. From what We can
learn at present the Madam's mental fac
ulties were not in condition at that time,
TO make the conveyance legally binding.
and daughter of Madam Us, who resides
in Iowa, has employed some OF the legal
talent of Parkersburg to look after her ln-
terests, and it will not be long until We
have further developments in the case.

Folger has deliyeredan elaborate opinion
on the appeal case of James Lees & Co., Of
New York, who were required to pay 2A
cents per pound on l6,720 pounds OF steel,
the customs officers rating them as ingots.
The Secretary holds that steel blooms ID
neither ingot nor bar, and overrules the de-
cision OF the New York Customs officers,
and thus places steel blooms among manu-
factured products which pay Is per cent.
al rdlore1n He intimates that this disposi-
ton of the matter is in order to avoid
overruling the former decisions OF the
Treasury Department and not because he
regards il ~ 4 strictly legal conclusion, and
calls the attention OF Congress to the neces-
sity of amending the laws. LNN.
