A Hens Long Fast.

r. II. Winslow, conductor on the
suburban trolley line, would like to
know how long hen can live without
food and drink. For more than week
his nice, big, fat hen had been missing,
He thought the fowl might have
strayed into somebody else's roasting
pan, and thus had ended its career; but
the other day his boy was in the cellar
and happened TO kick over a basket and
found the hen inside, alive but weak
from it's long confinement. "Rol"
thinks the hen must have jumped into
the basement from the cellar window,
and, alighting on the rim Of the basket,
the basket was overturned, with the hen
underneath. 1t was there ten or twelve
days.--Punxsutawpeu (Pa.) News.

SELECTED
OYSTERS
Ninety Barrels of Young 0ys-

YaqHina Bay

A refrigerator car, containing 30
barrels Of young oysters from Della
ware bay, passed through this city
Yesterday noon, bound for Yaquina
CITY, says the Albany Herald. The car
was consigned to j. d. Wilcox and vii.
liam Toner and their associates, owners
Of the oyster beds at Oysterville. The
shipment consisted Of selected oysters,
all Of them being chosen for the virili-
ty, and they will at once be placed on
the beds prepared for them. The freight
on the car from the Atlantic seaboard
TO Yaquina was nearly $500. The ear
was taken to Lincoln county by the
bay train yesterday, and last evening,
on arrival there, n barge was brought
alongside the wharf. on which the car
was stopped, the oysters were ihme-
diately unloaded, and this morning
will be taken to the beds for planting.
A year ago the same parties brought
out carload Of oysters from the East
and planted them at the oysterville
beds, and recent examinations showed
that they had grown nicely and are
in a healthy condition. Mr.. Toner, in
speaking Of the industry yesterday
noon, stated that they expected to be
able to place their first oysters, grown
from the young oysters brought here
from the East, last year, on the market
by next winter, and in the course Of
,nother year they will have ample
'upply TO prove that the Eastern oys.
.ers can be acclimated at Yaquina bay.

by Wilson OF Pennsylvania, 20 the effect
that representation should be proportioned
10 direct taxation and that direct taxation
on its part should vary according TO the
number of free inhabitants, plus three
fifths Of tho slaves. This compromise was
carried by a vote OF six States to two, there
being two States divided. Prof. Moran
points out that in many Of the books the
purport of the ~three-hfths compromise
Il Inexperienced. II IS often asserted
that the South wished TO include all the
slaves in the enumeration for representa-
ton and that the North wished TO include
none Of them, and that a compromise WAS
finally agreed upon whereby three-ffths
Of them were included. The question of
direct taxation is thus lost sight Of. As a
matter Of fact, the -three-fi fths' rule might
not have been finally adopted but for the
fact that it was made applicable 10 direct
taxation, az well as to representation.
Still another compromise was needed to
lay the foundations Of the Constitution.
This was effected during the latter days OF
the convention, and involved the slave trade
and the regulation of commerce. The
parties 10 this compromise were the New
England States on the one hand and those
Of the Far South on the other. Georgia
and South Carolina were opposed 10 a pro-
hibition Of the slave trade They also
feared that an export duty might be levied
by the Federal Government which would
interfere with the expectation of their rice
and indigo. and IN self defence they desired
10 retain an important voice in navigation
affairs. Hence their proposals that no
duties should be levied upon exports nor
on the migration or importation Of slaves;
that the slave trade should not be pro-
hibited; and that a two-thirds vote of the
members present in each house should be
required for the passage Of a navigation
act The contest over these proposals
was heated one. A compromise was
ultimately brought about by the joint
efforts Of New England and OF the Far South.
in spite of tho strenuous resistance offered
by Virginia and some other States. II
provided that no duties should be levied
upon exports: that the importation Of slaves
should not be prohibited by Congress pre-
viously TO the year 1905, but that tax or
duty might be imposed dd interim on such
not exceeding $40 for each
person; and that navigation acts might be
passed by a mere ma joTty instead OF by
two-thirds vote. This compromise. which
William Lloyd Garrison was to denounce
AS a covenant with he'll, is regarded by
Prof. Moran as having, on the whole. JUS
tilted itself. The retention OF the slave
trade for twenty years made 1t certain that
the powerful influence Of Rutledge and the
two Pnokneys would be given to the Con-
when it came before the people
for ratification. The decisive gain how

this compromise assured the success Of the

BY the close Of Jefrerson's second admin
istration the working of the Constitution
was fairly well settled. IL had been OPP
Grated under both Federal and Republican
auspices. and Chief Justice John Marshall
had been well started on his career OF Judicial
Interpretation. There is no doubt how
ever, that the original conception Of the
Constitution had undergone a profound
transformation by reason Of the acquisition
Of the Louisiana Territory. II Is well
known that Jefferson himself doubted the
constitutionalty of the Louisiana Purchase.
while the Federalists. who formerly had
advocated lax construction Of the Federal
organic law now insisted on strict con-
strliction. Some Of the New England
Federalists carried their opposition 20 far
as "a talk freely OF secession. The con-
stitutionality Of the purchase, however
l. no longer disputed. Several acquisi

The House OF Representatives, Ike the
bicameral system, was modelled mainly
upon State presidents IL evidently is
patterned on the lower house.of the early
State Constitutions. which. in turn. repro
duced the corresponding body which ex-
listed under the Colonial charters The
lower branch Of the first State Legislatures
was more numerous than the upper. was. as
a r1ile. elected for a shorter term Of Office:

jersey; or House Of Delegates as in Mary
land and Virginia, or House Of Commons. .
as in North Carolina. Prof Moran directs
attention to the fact that the immediate
precedents would have indicated the term
Of one year for members OF the Federal
House Of Representatives. as this was the
duration Of Office prescribed by the Articles
OF Confederation and by the early Consti-
tutious Of all the States except South Caro-
lima The two-year term was d compromise

convention who wanted one year and Others
who. like Madison and Hamilton, preferred
three years
It is well known that under our Federal
Constitution the Representatives are chosen
by the people Of the several States This
now seems a natural mode Of procedure.
but the proposal Of it provoked a good deal
Of discussion, some members Of the conveu-
ton Ike Roger Sherman OF Connecticut
and Elbridge Gerry Of Massachusetts, pro-
Tossing little faith in the wisdom Of the
masses OF the people. Pierce Butler u
South Carolina also considered popular
elections "impracticable. The Democratic
idea was defended by George Mason Of
Virginia and James Wilson Of Pennsylvania
and ultimately the convention compro-
missed on an agreement that Representa-
tives should be chosen by the people, and
Senators by the Representatives Of the
State.
II is worthy Of note that in 1857 a majority
Of the State Constitutions insisted that a
in a State Legislature should
be not only citizen OF the State but have
been resident for a specified time of the
city or town from which he was
sent. The Federal Constitution does not
specify that Representative in Congress
shall 10 a resident OF the district which he
represents, bat. as matter Of fact, he GUS
tomarly is. The people OF a Congress dis
tnct usually argue that resident Of that
