The bill, as it passed,provides that

entitled in the Forty-third , and each
/subsequent Congress shall be elected
by districts, composed of ccmitigunus
territory, and containing, as nearly
as practicable, an equal number of
inhabitants: —no district electing
more than one Representative. It is

elections in the several States, and
makes it unifortn all-over the corm- I

all the States, and the Tuesday after

as -the clay for election of Representa
tives to the succeeding Congresses.
It is still further enacted that no

ulation to entitle her t i p at least one

A TINIELi SUG.I:STIO.-lii the re
ix)rt of the Postmaster-General is sug
gestion for the establiehment of Post-
Office savings . banks. There can be no
question that even with the compar
atively low rateot interest proposed
—four per cent.the public would,as
Mr. Creswell claims, give the security
of the government preference to any
other. In view of the disclosures
lately made in New YOrk the bulk of
small depositors woild hail with
satisfaction the prospeet of so:Cething
like absolute safety±beyond the
reach of panic or corrupt legislation.
The competition of the Government
need not put other savings banks out
of the field. Elsewhere it has not
done so, but it has compelled them
into a competition of Soundness and
trustworthiness whicl> has been of
immense public benefit. The indirect
benefit of the people through the em
ployment in the hands the govern
ment of their own savings; would also
be ve.ty appreciable.
Set" The National Republican is in
favor of bringing the Unti-Grant Re
publican Senators befOrdthe investi
gating committee appointed at their
suggestion to testify. to what they
know, personally, of Corruption .in
the governinent departments. _ It
says : During the lastfew days, 31...
Schurz, Mr. Trumbnll,l Mr. - Casserly,
and others, have boldly stated, in
open Senate, that the Government
"reeks with corruption:" They have
allowed their statements on this sub
ject to be printed in the Globe. Iti is
to be' presumed that they know
whereof they speak. It seems to ifs
that the new committee should at
once summon these gentlemen before
them,-and ask them to l give evidence
on which they ' ased their assertions.
It is a very serious charge against
the- Administration. I Let them be
1
given the opportuniip te make good
their w...rds; and if they fail to do so,
let thembe censured by the, body of
which they are members, as'-common
slanderers and defamers. Put t them

LETTER FROM OOLORLDO: 12 -
Ch - isztxr Rim* 4:k6, ISth,lB7l.
Ma. Eamon: It may be that some
of your raiders worms. _ like to hoc
how things are progress 4 with us in
this far' away portion - of Thiele Sam's
vineyard. Our little town is still
growing, although times are dull just
now, ow ing to the cold weather. We
have had respectable winter weather
since the middle of November, With
six. - ,or eight inches of snow. We
have not as yet, had any extremely
cold days here, but over among the
Saints in Utah. the mercury has fall;
eh as low as thirty degrees below ze
ro. A. terrible storm raged along the
lines of the Union Pacific and Kan-
sas Pacific Railroads for a number of
days.. On' a the 7th of December, there
were eleven trains snow bound on
the Union Pacific between Omaha
and Oregon; while on the Kansas
Pacific the buffaloes crowded about
the snow bound trains,' seeking pro
tection from the wind and storm.
In Western Kansas many herders
and their cattle have frozen to death
together. The stock men in this re
gion are entirely unprepared for a
severe winter; not one in ten has a
pound of hay. The buffalo grass,
which covers the plains of Colorado
and Wyoming, is not more than a
couple inches high, at the best and
when that.is covered with snow eight
inches deep, one would suppose-that
it would be impossible for cattle to
obtain sufficient-to keep Ahem from
starving, Yet this snow :fell itiore
than three weeks ago, and I have not
heard, of a single animal dying; and
all the stock that I have seen is look-
in very well.
The principal occupation of our
people at - present, is hunting. The
storm has driven the game in from
the plains on to the bottoms where it'
has been slaughtered in great quan
tities. Buffalo, antelope, deer, elk
and prairie chickens are so plenty
that prices will - ,hardly pay for the
ammunition used in killing them.
With -the assembling of Congress,
the old question of the admission of
Colorado intO the sisterhood of States,
is revived. Without doubt a majori
ty of our people are in favor of a
State goi''imunent.
Quite au excitement was occasion
ed among the advocates of Women's
Rights, by the attempt of the Demo
eratic politicians of Wyoming to re
peal the law giving the rights of the
ballot to the women of that Territo
ry. The law was passed originally,
by the Democrats themselves; hoping
thereby to perpetuate their reign in
that benighted country. But, alas:
they are a living instance of the van
ity of human calculations. The wo
men voted the Republican ticket in
' a body, and elected 'the Republican
candidate for Delegate to Congress,
and came near carrying the Legisla
tu-e.4.Voir, the Democrats are unan
•imouslv of the opinion that Woman.
Suffrage is a humbug, and have rush
ed- an act- through the Legislature re
pealing the Suffrage I Bill, but - Goi.
Campbell blocked their little::-game
by vetoing the measure. I do not
;know of any better Owe than Wy
oming Territory, in which to work
- out the problem of Women SW:trade,
as it Would be utterly impossible to
lower the standard 01 personal mor
als or •political hone4y there. In our
Colony, all women who are stock
holders; have had the_same right to
vote as the men, on all questions of
colonial government There having
been some talk of removing the pres
i ent Post-master, Gen.- Cameron; a
meeting was called to be held on Dec.
2, at which all persons of legal age,
of either sex, who rebeive mail at the
Greeley Post-office, were requested
to express by ballot, their preference
for a candidate for Postmaster; the
name 'of the ono rec4ving the highest
number of votes to Ibo presented to
the Territorial Delegate for his sup
port in Washington: As the office
is worth a thousand! dollars a year,
of course there was a lively competi- I
Lion. There were three candidates;
one of them Miss ily Morris, the
second, a young, god looking, nn-
Married lawyer n ed Gipson, the
third, J. B. Flower,One of the "solid"
men of Greeley. Mr. Gipson was
the author of the proposition that
women should vote at ,that election.
Three hundred and seventy-one votes
were polled in all; ninety-eight ladies
walked up, to the ballot-box and de
posited their votes. I The young la
dies showed their peculiar fitness for
voting, solid for the young lawyer,
while the older ones polled their'
votes for the - candidate whose sleigh
first stopped at thiiiir door, for the
purpose of taking t h em to the Hall.
Mr. Flower was the successful can
didate. Miss Morris received but
nineteen votes. 1
The props raised by the colonists
this season, was g enerally light with
one exception ofplatoes. Lo many
of these were raise , that their mar
ket value is but one cent a pound;
which,=- in Colorado, is considered
equivalept, to giving them away.
Wheat has - averaged about ten bush
els to the acre, oats twenty-five. This
is not bad, however, when we look at
the circumstances. All this grain
was sowed on sod grotind, which had
never before been plowed; and which
probably has not had -a thorough
wetting since the. -days when Noah
sailed over these plains and landed
his ark above timber line, 'on Long's
Peak. - The stream were very lew,
this summer, and Om main irrigating
ditch failed to carry s ater enough to
wet the land - under cultivation.
' Farming by irrigation was entirely
new to all of us, and of course we
did not always apply the water in
proper quantities, and at the right
season. Mr. Hill, Who owns a farm
twelve miles south-West of Greeley,
had twenty acres of wheat on old
ground, which averaged fifty one
bushels to the acre, i over the whole,
field. Wheat, at' our mill, has been
selling forone'dollar and sixty cents
per hundred pounds, while oats are
selling at one (Millar! and eighty cents
per hundred.; All grain and vegeta
bles are sold by the "pound in this
country.
All the Bradford county boyd-who
came to Greeley, still remain here,
Seeley, • Higenbotani, Mitchell, and
myself. 1
Allow me, Mr. Editor, to congratu
late you and your readers op the glo
rious results on fall electione, all over
the country. Should Colorado be
come amindependerit State; this win
ter, you will -find her in line with
PennsElvania in 172, casting her
electoral vote - for th Republican can
didate for the Pres idency.

—A New York paper tints describes
a bridal dinner given by a wealthy citizen of
that bity : The table seated sixteen, served on
met ? aide, with the lady and gentleman of the
house at the head and foot. The tablecloth was .
of rich, heavy white silk, with fringe halts yard
deep, and was elegantly embossed. Along the
edges of the table, under tile plates of the
guests, were spread lengths of the finest and
costliest linen damask the width of a napkin.
There were no meats or vegetables on the
board.* It was set and ornamented for desert.
At each place was a•small silver vase, of exquis
ite pattern, holding a few rare flowers. These,
with knife and fork, the five wineglasses of dif
ferent sizes and patterni, and the bill of fare,
printed in gold on white satin, were all. In the
center-of the table was a richly-chased plated
tank filled with mess and flowers. Manning up
from this was a_stean which was twined with
tines and held istand a little less in size than
the tank, which was perforated with holes. On
this stand stood a block of the clearest ice.
which sparkled and looked rainbow-heed in the
riettnerong gas-lights, and as it melted sent lit
tle streams of water trickling down among the
plants, making a beautiful fountain. The fruits
were in elegant stands garnished wrilrtherost
beautiful flowers. The whole tabletr_esented a
very elegant appearance. There were five
courses, at the end of each of which the narrow
tablecloths on the edge of the tables were dez
terously rolled up and taken off by the waiters,
showing fresh ones beneath, and clean napkins
were supplied to the guests._ _

and prosperity of Scandinavian emigrants. Al
though so recently established, only about
eighteen months having elapsed since the im
migrants who now compose that flourishing
settlement first cbmmenced their work of clear

her which then extended over the whole tern
tory, such has been their industry and good
tortoise that theyeave already thrashed out
1,500 bushels of grain, mainly wheat, rye am:
harley,and much more retnains as yet unthrash
ed. A yield or forty to forty-two bushels to the
acre is'not uncommon, and that, too, on law,

have been secured for that number of families
Many others have purchased land from private

be any' real reason why such, an experiment
should not have proved a success, still the re
sults are gratifying.
—The city of Philadelphia has
8,000 manufacturing establishments in which
persons arc employed at wages in manufactures
of various kinds. One hundred and .twenty
thousand men and 40,000 women fled .stead}
employment in these establishments. 'Thep(
160,000 operatives re,ceivo $60,000,000 per an
num fur their labor. '• These £60,000,000 are ex
pended mainly in the city. The product of the
labor of these 160,000 operatives a mounts to
£360,000,000 per annum. Of this vast amount
not less than $200,000A0 in value supply dis
tant markets, bringing in return a net
revenue in money and. valuable exchanges
ilmense in the aggregate amount. Eighteen
hundred of these manufacturing establishments
are driven by steam, the aggregate of their
power being over 50,000 'horses. In these es
tablishments are found looms, spindles, lathes.
planes, and machines of an infinite variety.
numbering-in all over 250,000 improved labor
saving machines. By their aid ono man is ens.
bled to produce nearly twice as much in veto
as in 1860. Cheap coal frirrushes the basis o
this immense, and in the aggregate enormous

—the Marble and, slate quarrie:
of Vermont are among the most interesting o:
our home industries. A vein of marble extends
in almost a direct line from Westchester coun
ty-, New York, to Canada, end is worked mos .
extensively near Rutland, Vermoat. The veins,
although never more than fifty feet broad, are
of almost unknown depth, and the deeper they
are quarried the bettor the quality of the mar
ble. Three things act as drawbacks upon mar

son makes agaist his psrents,of extreme cruelty.
Damages are asked for in the sum of $50,000.
as the parents are wealthy. people. The moth
er apd sister of the plaintiff appear to have
been the chief aggressors in the cruelties com
mitted, but the father did his part. Among the
many 'specifications, "beating with an iron
armrod are with rubber whips," also "dragging
the plaintiff by the hair - of his head down two
flights of stun," may be cited as illustrations
of the daily amusements of the unnatural par.
ents. Other little pleasantries were "shutting
him up in a closet where he could neither sit
nor, stand, and keeping - him there by the day
without food ;" "assaulting him at the table
and driving him away from his meals ;" "per-
manently deforming him," etc. Of .course
there is another side to the question, and a ju
dicial examination alone can establish the true
facts in the case. But it does not seem proba
ble that such charges would be recklessly made
unless they had some foundation.
Some time sinco was recorded
the unusual incident of a runawaytrain.. A very
ainiilar accident has occurred on an English
road.. An engine standing on the 'Monmouth
shire railway - , near Newpert,wasbeing cleaned,
when the fireman perceiving a train approach
ing from behind, and that a ctillision was they
it ablo, jumped off. It is conjeCtured that the

astested, ars no loss than ditoeu pies.

being the most desirable invention of the prey-

vegetable cutter, fodder i cutter, and cider mill,

Gy a new application of power, by which •

is so constructed that no power is consnmed in
breaking np the straw, the grain or seed being
whipped from the straw by lever flails, which
strike 8,000 blows per minute. 711ese Sails arc
