sentimental song Of the negro miustrels.
The tune is all that has kept the words
from oblivion, and that was an old Sicilian

Payne hadn't any; and il he WAS able to

THE Pittsburg Post quite agrees" with
the Lancaster INTELL1GENCEE and
Harrisburg Patriot, that unless the
Democratic House can muster full
quorum of members on the Democratic
side at all its sessions, it had best ad-
journ as speedily as possible. 1t is one
of the conditions of the prolonged con-
test for honest, just and fair apportion'
ment that Democratic members shall be
faithful to their duty" The Wilkesoarre
Union Lcddcr, the Ila2leton Plain
Sneaker, of the Democratic dailies, and a
dozen of the most respected and intluen
tial Democratic weekly newspapers of
the state have been outspokenly for
some weeks advocating the some policy.
II may be taken as a general sentiment
of the press of the party, as it certainly
is of its people and we have reason to
know that Gov. Pattison is of the same
mind. Nevertheless the House is
again in session this week with
less than lOl members present
and yesterday the jenkins sena
torial and representative apportionment
bill had to be referred back to the
committee because had it not come up
on final passage there would not have
been enough Democrats present to have
passed it on third reading. II there is
no occasion for a Democratic majority
of the House to be present there is n
occasion for any of thes to be there /
