dulness of the apopular con science" must
have done much to promote the general mel
ancholy. Mr.. Dwight Morris, ex-Secretary OF
State, wrote lamenting {" the departure from
the firm doctrine of Je1ersonian Democracy"
Samuel Simpson, regretting that no could not
attend, trusted the occasion would " so awaken
. the spirit and true principles of Thomas
" Jefferson in the minds of those present that
:" they may be able to diffuse it into the minds
" of others throughout our land" Which was
cheerful, il not grammatical. Nathaniel "A.
Chapman was prevented from attending by
"busness engagements" but with singular
infelicity, considering the melancholy charac-
ter of the entertainment, he expressed the
hope that they would have "a very pleasant
and happy meeting" Wallace A. Miles struck
more successfully the keynote of the occasion.
He said: In these days, when honOrs seem to
be shOwered on the most corrupt, when place
and fame seem to be obtained only by those
"whOsc public record is clOuded with treachery
and deceit, when the public good is constantly
sacrificed to party and personal schemes,
"whcn the teachings of the fathers Of the Re-
"public are as myths of the dead past to the
youth Of our land, we cannot do too much to
keep awe Inc memories OF TIC lie anu ltdtH-
ings of Jefferson" Which was more in keep
ing.
There were other letters, and there was an
Grafton 10y Mr. William Parsons, who said the
eternal principles of Thomas Jefferson are
the fountain of political youth " into whose
waters we must plunge to renew our life and
secure Immortality Then there were
speeches by various statesmen of local ce-
lebrity which are not reported, but all Of which,
we presume, lamented IN appropriate terms the
death of jefferson and the prevailing unwill-
ingness of the people to rise above party and
put Democrats in office. Among the unre-
ported speakers was the Hon. +. 5. Cleveland,
of Hartford, gentleman who Stumped Indiana
in the last campaign at his own expense If he
is half as sorry that Jefferson is dead as he is
that William II. English is alive, and gave any
thing like adequate expression to his grief his
remarks must have been very impressive.
From the published report of the proceedings
of the Ncw-H Jeifersonians we gather in
a general way that their affections run out prin-
cipally toward dead men largely and heartily
toward the long time and very dead and meas
urably toward the half-dead Mr.. Tilden
seems to excite considerable enthusiasm among
them.

shocking crimes but it cannot be denied that
they have delayed the pacifcation of the island
which might have been effected under the
beneficent clauses of the Land Act, ana by pro-
longing the agitation have multiplied oppor-
tunities for agrarian horrors.
Is it to be wondered at that the British OoV-
ernment should have hesitated before releas-
ing suspects whose only claim for consideration
was a questionable citizenship in the United
States? The money contributed for the cause
could not be intercepted; the patriotic SYM
patty and moral support could not be counter
acted but those who came from America 10
instigate revolution and crime must share the
risks with native conspiratOrs. This being the
English view of the case, diplomatic intcrven-
ton in behalf OF the suspects was extremely
likely to excite intense irritation. If, therefore,
Mr.. Lowell has dispatched the business, rescued
the prisoners and asserted the rights OF Amcrl-
can citizenship, without causing bitterness or
enhancement between the two Governments
he is entitled to the gratitude Of Americans and
Englishmen alike. If his Intellectual attain
ments, his graces of manner and his personal
friendships in English society have contributed
to that end, il was not mistake to send to the
Court of st. James an American gentleman.

LILLE CONGRESSLONAL OCTLOOK

The early organization of the Democratic
Congressional Campaign Committee indicates
that that party is preparing to contest vigor-
ously the control of the next House of Repre-
sentatives. 1t behoOves the Republicans,
therefore to look about them and learn what
the prospects are of maintaining their ascend
ency. They hold the present House by a
slim majority. Out of 293 members, AZ are
Republicans--a bare majority of one. 1t is true
that some of those elected as Grcenbackers
vote pretty regularly with the Republicans;
but this does not give the trustworthy vote that
a party controlling Congress should have to
rely upon. The Republicans have therefore no
surplus of Representatives now upon which to
draw for losses in the coming Congressional
campaign. The new appOrtiOnment which
adds thirty-twO TO the present number of
Representatives, and the Encouragement of the
districts in the several States will compel each
party TO form anew its line of battle. The
Legislatures of some States are still busy with
redstricting plans, while in others it is a
question whether the districts shall be left I'M
disturbed and the additional members elected
at large, or whether there shall be Il new deal
all around. While the result of these various
plans is still unknown, their effect upon the
prospects of the two parties cannot be accu-
rately estimated. There are, however, some
data from which fair Judgment can be formed.
New England has twenty-eight Representa-
tivcs in the present House, of whom the Repub-
icans elected twenty-four and the Democrats
and Fusonists four. The new apportonment
gives that section twentysix members. IT,
as now seems probable, the Republicans redeem
the two Fusion Districts III Maine and the
Democrats elect one Congressman in Massachu-
sets and one in Come cticut, there will he the
same number of Republicans from New Eng
land in the next House as in the present one
New-Y York, Ncw-Jersey Pennsylvania, Ohio
Indiana, Illinois, Michigan and Wisconsin to-
gether gain seven Representatives by the
new appOItiOnmcnt. Six of these may fairly be
credited TO the Republicans. The seyenth-the
additional member given to Wsconsn-scems
10y some faulty TO have been surrendered to
the Democrats. There does not appear to be
any just reason why the Republicans should
lose any of the districts they now hold in these
States and there two IN this State, the
XIth and the XXXllld, which are naturally

Republican and can by united effort be re-
covered.
In the trans Mississippi States-Kansas,
Nebraska, Iowa and Minnesota-the new APP
portonment OF Representatives gives gain OF
ten. all of whom can be safely added to the Re-
publican column, while there is no apparent
reason for any losses In those States. CallIoi-
MIA will also gain two members, one OF Whom
at least it is reasonable to credit to the hepup-
icans, while there is Il fair chance also OF their
elccting the member from Nevada, which now
has a Democratic Representative. Thus we
have sixteen new Republican Congressman ana
two additional ones from districts IN this state
which it is reasonable to calculate upon. lhere
are 1877 Republican Representatives from the
North in the present Congress. If the party
holds the same number of districts and elects
the eighteen additional members mentioned
above, it will have 155 Representatives from
the North in the next House. majority Will
be 1913 and for the eight members wanted the
Republicans will have to look to the South.
But when we approach the South we come upon
uncertain ground. 1t is as yet too early to cal
culste what the result of the Independent
movements in that section will be. Upon
pccts of the Republicans. Not that the
independents will aid directly in elect
ing Republican congressman. but that the
break in the ranks of the Democracy must
surely result III fuller vote and IL fairer count.
The Republicans have ten members III the
present House from the States known as the
South whose seats are undisputed. The choice
of an equal number, added to the 155 Repub-
licans whose election it seems reasonable To eX-
pect in the North, would give that party the
control of the next House by five majority. 1t
is fair to suppose however, that the number OF
Republican Representatives, IN the South VIII
be doubled by this years elections. Gains may
he expected in Virginia, North Carolina
Georgia, Mississippi and Texas.
These calculations, it will he seen, are based
upon the united action Of the Republican party.
With harmony, organization and work, 10 he
publican members of the next House oil Repre-
sentatiyes can he elected. This would give
the party a majority of twenty-ive-a majority
none too large to carry through the reforms
and measures that the country demands. but
thr Republicans must understand that lcthargy
will not bring about the desired result. They
must not look to oifsetting losses i'll the North
by gains in tie South. They have no Con-
grcssional Districts to spare in either section.
Nothing but thorough organization and ylgor-
Gus united action will give them majority IN
the next House of Representatives and place
the party upon high vantage ground from
which to contest the Presidential election OF
1854.
