Legislative Notes.

The vote by which the increased rep
resentation amendment was defeated
on Wednesday was on motion of Mr..
Brown reconsidered on Thursday. 1t
is said the bill will be taken up for con-
sideration again as soon as its friends
think they have secured the 16 votes
necessary for its passage in the House.
The six members who defeated the bill
in the first place were Messrs. Adams
Atkins, Cannon and Hearn of Sussex,
and salisbury and Howe of Kent.
Mr.. Hearn of Sussex voted aye on the
motion to reconsider. So the great bat
tie is to be fought over again.
In the Senate Friday Mr.. Roe offer
ed a joint resolution providing for the
appointment of a joint committee of
five, to consider the prOpriety of pur-

asylum for a State institution, which
was adopted. Messrs. Roe and Martin
were appointed upon the committee.
On motion of Mr.. Cavender the resolu-
ton offered by him Thursday in rela-
tion to divorces, was laid upon the ta-

The representation amendment occu-
pied the attention of the House for a
short time Monday afternoon. and by
acareful a manipulation of parliamentary
rules the amendment stands precisely
where it stood before the sudden and
unexpected movements of John +.
salisbury on Friday morning. 1t is
lying upon the table and liable to be
called up for consideration at any time.
The friends of the measure cain that
it will pass the House, but there is a
pretty general impression that the ezra
tic circumstances which have attended
the course of the bill have tended to
weaken its chances.

ocratic power; but it can't cut
loose from the train of advancement,
in the face of its own plighted faith to
the people, and hope to avert revOlu-
ton. 1t is of no public consequence
whether a. Salisbury hates or loves
Bayard, but it is of public moment
whether or not a Salisbury strikes at
party faith and intelligent progress to
cripple the power of a Bayard. The
pledge given to the people Of Della
ware by the Democratic party, is Of
vastly more importance than are all
the Saulsburys and Bayards of the
State, and the party that plunges itself
into the fetid waters of Bourbonism to
defeat justice that was solemnly
pledged to the people, deserves defeat
and will surely get it. 1t is only
question of time, and of a very short
time in this enlightened age, when
Bourbonism will kill any party with
the dry-rot, and unless the Bourbon
barnacles of Delaware shall be scraped
off the bottom of the Democratic craft,

The friends of Ezekiel V. Cooper of

yesterday which was numerously sign
ed, asking of Governor Stockley his
appointment to succeed Col. Douglass,
deceased, as Commissioner of Insur-

StOckly is also an applicant and we
have heard the names of H. R. Mustard
and William Wilds mentioned as prOba-
BILE candidates. The men above named
are abundently capable of filling the
Office, and we hope Gov. Stockley will
make the appointment from this town.
There will be doubtless a number of
applicants from other places, the pa

THE Chestertown Transcript thus
discourses on the blanket sheet ten
dency in Peninsular journalism;
"There are now on the Peninsula,
three weekly papers that print nine
columns to the page. We would like
to know the exact motive that is in
spring our esteemed nine-cOlumn con-
tenporaries to this extra output of
paper. 1t can hardly result from
healthy advertising pressure upon their
journalistic space, for every one Of
them is employing some means or
other of killing space The poster
sheet advertisement appearing on the
pages of a newspaper, while it is rec
ognized as a very fine space-killer, is
not recognized among experienced
newspaper men as an indication of the
perfectly healthy condition of the ad-
vertising trade of the paper. Judging
our esteemed nine-columned contem-
pOraries by the manner in which they
use their space, the conviction is en-
forced that they really have no espec-
ial business need for their increase of
space The motive for big sheets
must therefore, be founded upon the
idea that magnitude and importance in
Journalism, go together; that a nine
column paper has assumed an inhuen-
tial position that cannot be surpassed
except by ten-column paper, and a
ten column paper has reached a mag
nitude of success that can only be over
reached by an eleven-column paper.
This nine-column greatness, &Fter
which some Of our contemporaries
seem to be reaching, results from the
same manner of logic used by the man
who built him a six.story house, with
twenty nine rooms in it, and when lie
had moved in, said to himself, now
verify, at last l am a great man. The
tendency among the best newspapers
nowadays, both daily and weekly, is
toward condensation, rather than to-
ward spreading out. Enterprise is be-
ing developed more in the way of ju-
dicious selecting, sitting and condens-
ing news, and presenting it in inter-
esting form. The Western papers are
almost universally big, but no one
looks upon the Western papers as rep
resenting the best ideal of Journalism.
Life is short, and print of every char
acter is overwhelmingly abundant, and
people in these days cannot spare the
time to wade through a great guam
tity Of insipid newspaper slush The
merit to be strived after in journalism
has got to be, a merit of quality and
not of quantity"

yer fanatics commences even before he

They reply to his letter in favor Of
stopping the coinage of silver dollarsin
a vOlumnious manner and on Monday,
under an assumed affrOnt that the
House had been sighted in the prep

to attend the ceremony at all, which
was only defeated after a heated de-
bate. During the debate some Of his

Death Of Col. II. 4. Douglass.


Col. Henry Clay Douglass, than
whom there were few men who cement
ed stronger friendships and for whom
there had been a growing solicitude
the past year or two by these friends,
was taken suddenly i'll at his home
Friday evening, falling in his kitchen
and expired in n few minutes. The
news spread rapidly and was known
throughout the community in very
short time--what would otherwise
have been a shock producing pro-
found emotion. He had not been able
to give attention to business for several
days, but had been on the street that
afternoon. His untimely death, for
he was yet in the prime of life with a
good constitution, could not otherwise
than cause the deepest regret through
out the large circle of his business and
social friendships. Col. Douglass was a
man of far more than ordinary mental
acumen and business capacity, having
with these a personal integrity and
business honor that won both the con-
fdence and esteem Of the large and
varied class who transacted business
through his hands. As a dealer in
grain and shipper of fruit, the transac-
tions frequently amounting to thou
sands of dollars daily, there was an
abiding, we might say confding trust
in him personally that he would deal
fairly and squarely, as between man
and man. That these "hetter days +"
did not, and have not continued. is a
source Of sadness in circle that
widens in the influence of but few men
in the common commercial pursuits of
life.
Col Douglass life is cotemporarv
with the history of Clayton. He fol-
lowed Francis Wilds the first ticket
agent on the construction of the road
after he had held the place few
months, coming to this place from
Bridgeville, Sussex county, in the year
1856. He held the position until 1864
when he was elected to the Legisla-
ture, being succeeded by JOS. Smithers
the present incumbent. The title Of
Colonel " was conferred by Governor
Causey, he having been up to the war
an ardent Whig,-a title that fitted
him as if conferred by a natural right.
After the session of the Legislature of
which he was Il member, he opened an
office for buying grain and shipping
fruit at Clayton, 70: a number of years
with ample business success, but the
days came from which few are exempt.
when the revolving wheel of time turns
the shadow as well as the sunshine.
His death will cause not only va
cancy in the business interest of CLAW
ton, but in the office of Commissioner
of Insurance Of the State, having been
appointed to this position by Governor
Stockley nearly two years ago to sue
ceed John r. McFee, Esq, the first
Commissioner.
On Monday afternoon his remains
were attended to Glenwood Cemetery
by a large number of friends who thus
united in the solemn services with
their last tribute of respect. He leaves
widow, and son and daughter grown.
He was between 55 and Sc years old.

Jubilee Singers.

The entertainment given in the hall
last evening by the Jubilee Singers
from Fisk University was one of de-
cided merit. Their voices are all rich
and mellow and blend very harmoni-
Ously. Their rendering of the several
selections given showed them to be
thoroughly trained and cultivated
singers. The solos by both Miss Jack
son and Mrs. Cole were indeed finely
rendered, displaying on the part of
both these singers fine soprano voices.
The cOntralto was equally as good.
And their tenor was the best we have
overheard on our stage. The bassos too
were excellent. The male quartette
did fine execution in the Arian Waltz
song. The part song" Jingle Bells'
by the company was also finely rem
dered. The whole entertainment was
one of unusual merit.
