tor Eve terms, or twenty years; northern
men for nine terms, or thrty-six years.
The preponderance here IA favor OF the
North Is consequence OF the southern
preponderance IN the presidency, for IT
seems early 20 have become this rule TO 60
lect the candidates for the two Offices from
different sections The only case in which
there was departure from the rule was IN
the election OF Calhoun as vice-President
a:onz with jackson as President. No case
occurs in which two northern men were
thus chosen.
spEAgEnsHIP OF TIE HOUSE.
This Office Is now next in impori auco TO
the presidency. IL was relatively less I'M
portant In the old days. but II has always
been one for which conspicuous ability Is
sought. The ffty-six years give twenty
eight Congresses, and for each Congress
the House elected its Speaker. VI the
twenty-oigbt Congresses southern men
held the speakership IN twenty.
CHIEF JUSTICE OF SUPREME COURT.
For forty-four wears out of the bfty-six
the Office of Chief Justice was filied by
southern men. Three northern men, how
ever. were nominated and confirmed. but
they either declined or resigned IN short
time
SECRETARY or STATE.
In the period of fifty-six years the most
important Cabinet place was filed by
seventeen mon, fairly supposed eminent
for ability. OF these seventeen, il we count
Delaware as q southern State. twelve were
from the South and five from the North.
II Delaware is called northern State,
there we're eleven from the South and SIX
from the North.
ATToINIY-GySERAL.
During the period under review twenty
lawyers held the place of Attorney Gene
raj. OF these thirteen were southern men.
In the other departments of War, Navy,
Treasury. and Post-Ofiice the number of
incumbents from the North is somewhat
larger than the number from the South.
The time of service OF the southern men
is perhaps equal to that of the others, but
an exact account has not been made,
/ offer no comment on the facts.

SALARY REDUCTIONS.

We Won d ike 10 dave seen the
Governors salary increased to
$4,000 and that OF other officials IN
proportion. Cheap labor is not
good policy. 1t will soon become
a difficult matter to command the
s-rvlc, of first class otfi Gals, when
the nav il so much smaller than
their income from other professions
and pursuits, which they are called
upon TO resign to become the ser
wants Of the people. 1t would be
interesting TO know the sum total
so lost by the majority of the mem
bers Of the present legislatures
We regret to note that the house
has made the following changes ID
the present salaries:
The Governors salary is reduced
from $4,000 to $500. and other
state Officers from $4,000 to $4,000.
District attorneys are allowed
$1,000; circuit and chancery Judges
$500; reduction OF $3.50. The
railroad commi. sioners are given
$4,000, being reduction Of $500.
The clerk of the railroad commission
is reduced to 5000. The superln-
tendent OF the deaf aud dumb IN
stitute $500, and the adju'ant-
general S2500.
A strong effort was made TO re-
duce the salaries Of the supreme
court judges from $500 to $4,000,
but 1t failed.
