The Philadelphia Press has published
a map of tho new Congressional Dis
tricts In Alabama, and IL an accom-
panying article cxclaims with much in
dignation at what it terms "the gerry
mander" in this State. This leads the
Philadelphia Record to say: "The
State is so distributed as TO make as
safe as possible white control as against
the ignorant colored vote. Between
the second and the seventh districts
there Is difference Of $1,000 says the
Press. But the Press bad better look
at home. Between the third aud
fourth districts in this city there was a
difference of population in 1880 OF S2,-
y29 and in 1890, at the last election Of
1S0,422. A picture of our gerry
mander would be quito as suggestive
to the eye as the Alabama effort. Let
us not pluck the notes from the eyes
of other people until we shall have cast
out the beams from our own"

The Connecticut Plan.

The deadlock over the Governorship
continues in Connecticut and there is
no indications at the present time that

sends a message TO the Senate, the
clerk who has his instructions an

Bulkely' wherehpon tho presiding
officer of the Senate replies "throw it

Sheffield, loaded with 200 bales of cot
ton for Howell & Co. The boat Is the
steamer Il. J. Cole. a stern-wheel craft,

Capt. G.. d. Samuel, an old Tennessee

Capt Samuel stated that the trip

singular one, as it demonstrates con,
cIusively the thorough praclicability Of

fpsrn was not in IL. Mattimore pitched q good
xzme for the visitors, but 1t was his support
rssher than his pitching that won the game.
He was frequently hit hard, but the ball always
fell into the hands OF some Seattle fielder In

man. "Jiggs" Parrott, perhaps, did as much TO
lose the game as any other Circumstance. He
vas sternally trying 70 cover the whole dis-
mond. Costly errors were the result In the
eighth Shea hit the ball straight for westlake,

stand play, and fumbled. "Jiggsr has made q
