1t is reported that some of our long
headed ( p Republicans have got their
heads together to improvise new bill
on the re-apportionment of the State.
In view of the well-grounded objections
raised to the bill of last winter It would
be supposed that an effort would be
made to adopt more just and liberal
mode of re-districting the state, giving
to the Democrats fair representation
in the national House of Representa-
tives. Such does not seem to be the
aim of the originators of this bill. On
the contrary, according to it, the state
has been so divided that the Democra-
tic counties are distributed among Re-
publican counties in such a manner as
to drown the Democratic vote, or
where such a parceling out could not
be well accomplished without endan-
gering Republican chances, the Demo-
cratic counties have been so grouped
together that maximum vote will Sc
curea minimum representation. Mod.
ern political sagacity seems to exert
itself in securing success to party by
gnch unjust unprJja@cig Vs p ard SlJgg nWWise
are endeavoring to secure Republican
representation by such means as this
must mistake the feelings of their con-
stituents. We would see the Demo-
Gratis as we'll as the Republicans repre-
scented in the House of Representatives.
1t is their right, and such underhand
methods of depriving them of those
rights is unbecoming to the party in
power. He who assumes that is is the
desire and wish of Republicans to
crowd out their political opponents by
fair means or by foul is making the
mistake of assuming that his own per-
sonal venom and greed is a homoge-
neous part of the feeling that animates
the Republican party at large. There
is time at which such an extreme of
party rancor can we'll be put aside.
and a decent respect be shown for the
rights and privileges of men, irrespec-
tive of their political opinions. The
originator of this new move, who it
seems was the inspiring genius of last
winters bill, and who is credited with
being candidate for one of these dis
trlcts, is considered by some to be
Republican leader--the smartest man
in the legislature, but if the drawing
up of such bills is specimen of his
handiwork, he is better deserving the
name of political trickster. His tai
ents in this direction would undoubted-
ly be a valuable article in Congress.

add nothing to her dignity or be in any
way better off for such representation.

Ilcan representation in Congress. She

fair manner, and that Is the way she |

w ASHINGTON, ~. u, Jan. %, 1882.
Congress the past week has taken
matters leisurely, and no legislation of
general interest has been reached and
brought to a flnality. Bills looking To
the revision of the tariff have been in.
troduced, but it is not probable that
any material changes will be enacted
at this session. Measures for the sup
preston of polygamy have been much
talked about, but little or no progress
has been made. The bill for extend
ing the charters of the National banks.
1t is believed, will fail. Sherman's
funding bill, for the issuing of three
per cent bonds, which was so popular
a few weeks ago, appears to have lost
friends, and the chances for it becom-
ing a law are now doubtful. 1t is con-
tended that with the present flow of
money into the e. s. Treasury the
National debt can be paid off as rapid
ly as desirable, without the issuance
of bonds bearing low rate of interest.
No legislation, distinctiyely political,
of any Importance has been attempted
the present session; most of the issues
discussed are of non-partisan char
acter.

BRISTOL.

| Mr.. and Mrs. James Spence, of Som
ers, visited Mr.. and Mrs. M. O. Myrick
on Saturday, and attended morning
service at the Congregational church
on Sunday.
An interesting "Bible Reading" was
held at the home of MI. j. d. Fowler,
on Sunday evening, the subject being
HPauls Missionary Journeys"
Rev. FL. M. Corsbie announced from
the pulpit on Sunday morning, the
usual collection for the American Mis-
sionary Association would be taken a
week from Sunday. In view of the i'm
pertance of the missionary work
among the Freedmen in the South, and
the fact that Rev. James Powell, the
secretary of the Association, would
preach to them on that morning, he
suggested our contributions ought to
be more than liberal.
On next Sunday evening 'Bible
Reading" will be held at Mr.. Gilbert
Gulic's. Subject: "The Continuation
Of Paul's Missionary Journeys and La
bors."
On Sunday morning Rev. II. M.
Corsbie discoursed on the words of
Paul: FINALLY, brethren, whatsoever
things are true, whatsoever things are
honest, (1lee0 0e1sio7a, honorablel, what
soever things are pure, whatsoever
things are lovely, whatsoever things
are Of good report; if there be any vir-
tue, and if there be any praise, think on
these things" The sermon embraced
so widea range of ideas, and was so
fall Of meat, that a mere mention can
do it no degree of justice. In this in
PRODUCTION he said there were a class
of preachers who were always preach
ing doctrinal salvation; their every
sermon leading to the thought of justi-
fication of the sinner by faith. Anoth-
er class of preachers made works the
thing of sole Importance, making no
account of faith as way of salvation. |
These were two extremes between |
which he thought there was a happy |
medium. In his opinion, Paul was
eminently a practical teacher; while |
e1horting men to hold the true faith, |
he gave, with great emphasis, rules |
for the daily conduct. The sermon
was an inquiry and analysis of the
things which are true, honorable, just, |
lovely, and of good report in regard to
our faith and our daily conduct.

The question as to the date at which
the constitutional amendments voted
upon last fall shall commence to OPP
crate, or as to whether they are now in
operation, is attracting some interest
and the opinion of the Attorney General
has been called for. The members OF
the present legislature are demanding
salaries provided for in the amend
ment. There seems to be no founda-
tiOn for such claim, as the vote which
elected the present legislature secured
will probably be decided that the pas
sage of the amendments do not affect the
present legislature. Otherwise our
biennial sessions have already begun,
and our present Assembly and Senate
holds two years.

The application of Washington Ter
ritory for admission into the Union has
for some time been before Congress,
and will probably come up during the
present session. The admission of
this state will bring all of the United
States territory fronting the Pacific
under State governments. The terri
tories are fast filling up, and the organ
ization of all of them into states
seems not far distant. The bill for the
admission of Washington territory con-
tains one item that will make its pas
sage difficult, if not impossible. 1t APP
propriates as part of its territory a
few of the northern counties of Idaho.
This Idaho strongly objects to, and
will be seconded by all the other terri
tories, as the precedent is considered a
dangerous one to establish, and might
lead to the dismemberment of any or
all of the territories as they now stand,
and create eventually boundaries quite
different from the present, when these
territories in their turn are admitted
as states. The. objection seems to be
well sustained. When no other reason
than desire to appropriate desirable
portion of an adjoining territory can
be urged for such a scheme, it would
seem an injustice to the territory tc
slice off part Of their grounds and
attach it to the new state. If the
reason is merely to obtain populous
district, in order that the territory
making the application may secure thu
requisite population for admission, il
would still be an injustice, for by a!
much as the one gains in population b!
such alteration of the boundary line
the other looses, and the day at which
it can secure the requisite population
for admission into the Union is by s,
much postponed. AS every territor,
is seeking to become a state at tn
Earliest possible date, such an action i
an Infringement upon their rights.

0uiteau has made his speech to the
jury. 1t contains nothing new. 1t is
a mere repetition of what he has before
said. Dire disaster will overtake the
country if his blood is shed. His
speech contained many things that he
has before set forth in better shape.
His attempt at oratorical effect was
great, sinking his voice to mere whis-
per and then belching forth in loud,
harsh tones, and ending up in a wierd
attempt to sing stanza of sold John
Brown" He aflirms that he was lu-
matte on July the I'd, and that he was
inspired by the Deity. All in all, his
address is very singular. 1t has made
the public again doubt the soundness
of his mind, but the jury were not sim.
ilarly affected.

Commodore William B. Whiting has
presented his views on the Panama
Canal question. He thinks that it
would be a disadvantage to the govern
ment to hold exclusive control of such
a water way-that under an agreement
of neutrality our interests would be
better guarded in time of war than
they would if this government had
complete control, which it would be
necessary for them to maintain by
means of an armed feet. These views
are quite at variance with those of ex.
Secretary Blaine, whose instructions
to Minister Lowell were so much adj
mired at the time of their issue.

the Chicago, st. Paul, Minneapolis and

of conversation in railroad circles of

quietly. The purchase will probably
settle an involved question respecting
certain land grants in the northwestern

DE-
WASHINGTON, Jan. IS 100 Pm.
Court was called to order at S :35
and at 80 the jury came in and re-
turned a verdict of guilty, as indicted
The greatest excitement prevails. The
announcement of the verdict spread
like wildfire, and in few moments
from the announcement of the jury
knots of men were to be seen gathered
on corners and in every conceivable
place, evincing the greatest Joy at the
finding. The universal impression was
not only qualification, but surprise, at
the promptness of the verdict. The
Judges charge was short, and the jury
was out about 40 minutes. AS the last
name was called when the jury was
polled, Guiteau shrieked: "My blood
will be upon the heads of that jury.
Don't you forget it. God will avenge
this outrage" Scoville says he will
move for a new trial.
The following account of the closing
scenes is taken from the press de-
spatches of the Milwaukee Republican /:

crime presides over your deliberation,
and the verdict which shall be given
or withheld, to-day, will be recorded
where we all have to appear. I trust
that the verdict will be prompt: that
it will represent the majesty of the
