The New Apportionment.
(Phllailplplila rrmn.)
The passago of t lie IIounc Apportion
merit bill by the Senntenxed the siic
wf the next Honnc at 825. The Repub
lican party on the whole wins the odd
(rick In" the division; but ttirins little
more, and no fcUreT A Mrl hut Ion of I
Representatives lias been made in our
history by a Congress both of hRe
branches, as well a the Kxecutlve,
were In the hands of one party. To the
present number of Itepresen tat Ives
thirty-two, over a tenth, are added and!
its three New England Htatea Maine,
New Hampshire and Vermont whose
population has been for twenty years
stationary, each lose a member, the;
number of members actually distribu
ted is thlrty-flvo. Of these fifteen go to
Southern States and twenty to North
ern, the loss of three making the net
gain of the latter seventeen; while as
between Republican and Democratic
districts the chance that the. new
member in New York will be elected
by a district south of Harlem River
and the new district In Virginia will
be Republican, leaves the balance be
tween parties nearly equal, with again
of from three to five members for the
Republican party, so that an election
as close in Congressional districts as
the last would leave the Republican
party with a majority of five to six
Instead of one.
The new Electoral College in 1884
and 1888 will have 401 members, and
the States which voted for Garfield will
cast 228 of these members, a majority
of 46 over Hie 173 votes cast by states
voting for Hancock, California being
placed in the Democratic column.
New York, Indianaand the youth, CM
Yotee, are still a majority of the
Electoral College; but New York, a
email Northern Htate and the South
can no longer outvote the rest of the
Electoral College, as they have been
able to for a generation. At the last
election, New York, New Jersey ami
the South would have given Hancock
majority. Nothing but the double
event of New York und Indiana going
together, with a Solid South, can elect
a Democratic President in future, and
the Republican partv can lose New
York and still carry the Presidency
Unt all such calculations are likely to
be upset in the unstable political
equilibrium of the day by a break in
the South.
Of Immediate political changes, how
ever, the most important is the large
number of eleetlons at-large which
this apportionment will make neces
sary next autumn. Texa, which
gained five members, Kansas four,
California, Michigan, Nebraska each
of which gains two members; Arkan
nas, Illinois, Missouri, North-Carolina,
A-ennByivania, west Virginia, gain
ing one each, must elect the members
added respectively ona ticket at-liirge,
unless a special session of the Leglxla
ture Is called. South Carolina, two
members, and Georgia and Kentucky,
one of each, have Legislature meeting
in the fall; but not in season to redls
trlct the State before Congressmen are
chosen, unless a special session h
called. Of the number to be chosen by
general vote, iu the first list nine are
certain to bo Democrats and twelve
Republican. The three Southern States
last mentioned will, of course; elect
Democrats. Iowa, Massachusetts, Miss
issippi, Minnesota, New York, Oiiio
Virginia and Wisconsin have Legisla
tures in session to add a district apiece
to their existing number; but as
there is not much likelihood that Gov
ernor Cornell and a Democratic Leg
islature will agree on a new set of
districts, a member-at-large will prob
ably be elected there next November.
As a State Legislature cannot be
forced to lay out new districts, there
is nothing to prevent these States
from going om electing a member
or members-at-largc until 1890; as Illi
nois did from 1860 to 1B70 under prc--oisely
similar legislation.

GENERAL JAMES A. BEATER
Statesman, Lawyer and Soldier. '
(Phllafaphla Prw.)
'That wafneof the finest exhibi
tions -of ski rtih line maneuver and
lighting I ever saw."
'Thais spoke General Warren, the old
comnwwider-ef the Fifth Corps, of a
Colonel of a Pennsylvania Kegiment,
young In years, who was giving evi
dance of his military ability and cour
age While coimnaniNng the skirmish
line at Aubarn Hill, the real opening
to the battle of Hristow Station. This
young niaa had even then a remark
able Tccord as a noldler, but it grew
stronger and lighter as the war clouds
thickened and t ho clash of arms filled
tho land with their terrible realities.
The soldier thus complimented Is a
descendant of a distinctively Pennsyl
vania Dutch family. Not long after
William Pcmii made his friendly treaty
witli the I odious, and laid the founda
tion ofthls great commonwealth, his
ancestors emigrated from Alsace to
seek their fortunes on the new Con
tinent. They settled what is now
Chester County, and for more than five
generations have added strong men
and women to the sturdy population
of the Keystone State.
tie seems to liave inherited military
liking from his ancestor', some of
whom were soldiers In Uw earlv In
dian war. His great grand father served
in me (evolutionary war. and was a
member of Cttotain ( 'biireirm-omnun v
of famous Mad Anthony Wayne's reg
uncut. Alter me strunKiosof tne inv
olution resulted in liberty for theColi
onies, he settled in Franklin County
and married a Miss Keefer, a com
rade's sister. One of his sons settled
in Lebanon County and raised a fam-
ily, miesm of which took up his
residence In Millerstown, Perry
County, on the banks of the Juniata,
and following the family bent went to
merchandising.
OKNEKAI. BKAVKR's KAItt.Y MFK.
James A. Beaver, his son was born
at Millerstown. October 121, 18:1", mid
is consequently In his forty-fifth year.
His father died when he was only
three years of age, and he was brought
up tiy ins grandfather, wlio lived in
Miflliti County. He laid the founda
tion of his education in the common
schools of his native place and of Mif-
fliu, and under the tuition of his
grandfather, who was a minister. He
was sent to Jefferson College at
Cannonsburg, Washington County, to
complete his education, when about
sixteen years of age. He graduated
witli honors from that institution on
the t'-th of August, 18'i'i, when nine
teen years old, and almost immediately
removed to iseiiciontc, wnero ho now
resides, to fit himself for the legal pro
fession. He began the study of law
with Hon. H. .. McAllister, one of
the most distinguished lawyers of
Central Pennsylvania, who died while
a member or the convention which
formed the present Constitution of
this State. Almost from the moment
when young Reaver came to Centre
County he began taking an active part
in me polities ana societv of that
section. He was admitted to the bar
when barely twenl v-one vears of aire.
and so rapidly had he developed into
a lawyer that Mr. McAllister at once
took him into partnervhip, a business
connection which continued until the
death of the latter. While studviinr
law, young Heaver showed great taste
for military life and study, and joined
the Bellefonte Fencihles, a crack mili
tary company, commanded by Au
drew G Curtin, the famous war Gov
ernor. He soon showed irreat Droll
clency in drill, a ready knowledge of
tactics, ana was chosen Second .Lieu
tenant of the company. When the
war broke out he still held that posi
tion. J lie nrst gun ol the Rebellion
had hardly been fired when a meet
ing was culled and it was agreed that
the officers ahold resiirn their com
missions and that the company should
he recruited for active service in the
field without regard to the relative
positions of oftlccrs and men. As if
by magic the ranks of a new company
were tilled and Beaver chosen its
t irst Lieutenant.
IK THE WAK FOR TIIK UNION,
Mr. Curtin had then been elected
Governor, and the First Lieutenant
of the eld company was chosen cap
tain of the new organization. It was
assigned to the Second Pennsylvania
Infantry as Company H and served as
such during the lirst three months
campaign. J he regiment become
part of General Robert Patterson's
command und marched into Shenan

skirmish at Falling Waters, one of the
first engagement of the war, to hear
the shriek ot a shell but not to smell

Pennsylvania was pouring its troops

Union was. During August of 1862
nearly a full regiment was raised in

about ready for the field Lieutenant
Colonel Beaver was requested to he-

the troops he commanded, whether in
camp or on the march, the value of its
military importance. From picket
duty along the railroad he was ordered
with his regiment to tho Army of the
l'otoniac just before the battle of Fred
ericksburg. Not being able to procure
transportation lie made a forced march
from Washington, but did not reach
the scene of action until the day after
the buttle. Upon bis arrival he Mas
ordered to report to General Hancock
who then commanded the first divis
ion of the Second Army Corps. When
he reported to that great soldier, who
has since become so famous, there was
an occurance which created a friend
ship between them that has continued
through all the circles er years and
tides of politics from that day to this.
Colonel Beaver was young aud very
youthful looking, but be was every
Inch a soldier. When be went to
Hancock's quarter's to report be
said:
"General, I Lave endeavored to Im-
press upon my men the value of strict
discipline, and while I do not presume
to suggest to what brigade you shall
assign me, I should like to go to one
where my men, who are new in mili
tary life, will find my advice illus
trated. "
Hancock looked at Ore young
soldier fixedly for a moment and then
said :
"Colonel, I regret to say we have
no such brigades, I only wish we
had."
He then ordered Colonel Beaver to
report to the first brigade of his divis-

SHOT THROUGH TMK BODY.
Sunday morning, May 8, was an
eventful day for Colonel Beaver and
his new regiment. Tito long roll was
beaten early, and the 148th Regiment
was first iu line and out in the road,
ready for duty. Jeb Stewart had suc
ceeded to Stonewall Jackson's place
alter the latter's death, and was fol
lowing Jackson's plan to turn the
riirht llank of the Union army. Col
onel Beaver's regi n rot it stood in the
road, waiting for the rest of the bri
gade to form. General Hooker rode
up hurriedly, and interrogating: him.
said :
"Is this the first brigade, first divis
ion, Second Corps?''
"it is," replied Colonel Beaver.
"Then follow me. and I'll show vou
where to go into line."
Hooker and Colonel Beaver rode on
together toward the enemy's line with
the 148th Pennsylvania Regiment,
leaving the, rest of the Brigade to fol
low. When they reached the wood
which the enemy had already occu
pied. Fighting Joe. Hooker pointed
to the place where he should put the
regiment In line.
"Hadn't I better throw out a line of
skirmishers':" inquired Beaver.
"1 here is no time to form a skirmish
line, everything depends upon hold
ing the road," replied the command
ing uencrai as ne rode away.
Beaver marched ills reg'iment into
the undergrowth, and had not nro
ceeded far in the direction Hooker had
named before he was met by a wither
ing tire which struck his regiment on
the right flank. He had dismounted
in order to more readily command his
troops, and lie at once turned aud
ordered the command to change front
so as to better receive and return t he
enemy's fire. Just as he gave the
order lie fell forward on his face shot
through the body. Two comrades
picked him up. when he remarked
"I am of no more use; lenve me and
alter the battle is over It will be tune
to look lor the dead."
He was, however, carried to the rear
and kindly cared lor by the division
surgeon, who probed li'is wound and
found that, although very severe, It
was not necessarily mortal. He was
sent North as soon as able to be moved.

commanding officers of the brigade to

tho week preceding Colonel Beaver's
elevation to this command he had ever
aspired to lead.
At Cold Harbor he was again
wounded in the right hip. It laid him
up but a short time, however, wliei
he lesumed his command as a Briga
dier-Gcnerul. At Petersburg, while
rallying his forces he was literally
blown up witli a shell which struck
almost under his feet and hursted. A
piece of it struck him in the left side
muKiug a terriuie wound. This was
the severest mishap he ever received
except the final one which disabled
him for life. As soon as he could
travel he was sent north, where he re
mained for some time. He returned
to his brigade before fit for duty, and
General Hancock would not consent
to his taking command of it while
still suffering from his injuries. He
went north again and after thirty
days' leave reported to General Han
cock the day of the battle of Ream's
Station, on the Wilmington and Wei
don Bailroad, the 24th of August
OKNKItAL HEAVKR'8 LAST BATTLE,
This was an important engagement
and General Hancock was in personal
command of the troops. Reporting
at headquarters, and finding that his
division had gone into action, he took
an aninuiance and followed it.
A year ago or more I overheard thl
niHiinguisneu ana mangled soldier re
late the following interesting story of
ins nisi uuitic:-
"Unding mv division cone. I fol
lowed on in an ambulance some fifteen
miles until I arrived at the point
where our forces were engaged in de
stroying tne railroad so as to break th
line of communication between Rich
niond and the South. There I bor
rowed a horse and rode to General
Hancock's headquarters-, who was in
person commanding for tills special
service tne t irst ana (Second Division
of the Second Corps, of which he was
Justly proud. He ordered me to take
command of my brigade, which was
the Fourth Brigade of the Second
Division. Two corw of the Confeder
ate army, under Generals Longstreet
and Hill, had come down upon Gen
eral Hancock's force while it was
tearing up the railroad. Our lines
were drawn in, ia the form of a
horseshoe, and entrenched in rifle-pits
ready for a fight, which was Just
about beginning as I rode over and re
lieved Colonel Brodie of his command
of the brigade.- The skirmishing be
tween the advance of the two forces
was then going on vigorously, and I
bad dismounted und was walking
along near the rifle-pits, watching the
skirmish line and the preparations for

their attention and' prevent myself
from being trampled under the horses'
feet. They caught the signal, pulled
up, and some of them dismounted and
carried me back to where a stretcher
could be procured, and I was removed
to tne rear. The whole line was at
this time engaged, and while I was
being carried back I met General
Hartran ft coming up with his divis
ion to reinforce General Hancock.
whose lines had been broken in the
centre nftcr a desperate contest, in
which these two divisions of the old
Second Corps had withstood the stub
born attack of two of the best corps or
tne confederate army.
'Dr. McDonald, our dlvisou sur
geon, when I reached a secure place,
examined my leg and said cheerily:
'Oh I we'll save that for you.' 'If
you'll make a good stump of it I shall
be tuaiiKiui,' I replied. "Uin we'll
do that; never fear,' he answered. He
did his best, but the shot was too high
up, and the leg had to be amputed at
t he hip, and it was done the next
day.
"It was a hitler fight, indeed, tills
battle of 'Beam's Station.' I have
often wondered how our force got off
as well as they did. I doubt if there
had not been some raw troops In the
centre of the line, where the break
was made, whether our lines could
have been broken at all by the super
ior attacking force.
After this buttle and with three
severe wounds beside the one which
tore away his leg General Beaver was
forced to retire from active military
service and after four years of army
life, characterized by a quiet bravery
and an intelligent performance of
duty that had gained the admiration
and respect of all men, lie was mus
tered out of the army in looo.
GENERAL BEAVER IN PRIVATE LIFE.
As soon as heagain became a private
citizen he resumed his place in the
legal firm of McCallister fc Beaver, at
Bellefonte, and turned his attention as
actively aud earnestly to civil pursuits
as he had to militnry life during the
war. un theism ol iX'cember, if&,
he mnrrled Miss Mary McCallister. the
daughter of his partner and preceptor.
j nreo ooys are tne living issue or the
marriage, the eldest thirteen and the
youngest seven. His talents, integ
rity and his brilliant military record
gave him a high position iu his own
community, and indeed, throughout
the Mate. Kinee the war he has taken
au active part in politics, being an
outspoken and progressive Republican.
Jjiving in a strong Democratic county
he has had no chance for poiiiicai pre
ferment at the hands of his immediate
constituents. He lias, however taken
a prominent part in the affairs of the
Mate ana iNatlon.
He is a fine speaker and his services
have been in command upon the
stump in nearly all the Northern
States iu every National campaign
since the war. In l(io he was can
didate for Legislature in Centre
County, which usually give 800 or '.'00
jjemocruue majority, without mak
ing an effort to be elected, so great was
his personal popularity that he was
lefeuted by only 141 votes. He was
one of the commission which super
vised the building of the Insane Hos
pital at Warren, Pa. He is a member
of the Board of Trustees of the Penn
sylvania "State College in Centre
County, formearly the State Agricul
tural College. He is also a member of
the Board of Trustees of Washington
und Jefferson College at Washington,
l'a., the institution from winch he
was a graduate. He is a member of the
Board of Trustees of Lincoln Univer
sity, at Oxford, Pa., where colored
young men are educated. He has
ever taken a great interest iu the
State militia, and was commissioned
by Governor Geary as a Mujor-Gencral
in the National Guard. He now com
mands the Second Brigade, which
comprises all the troops In the western
section oi tne Mute. He was a dele
gate to the last National Convention
at Chicago, and u-as unanimously
chosen chairman of the Pennsylvania
delegation, and in the exciting con
troversy which' urose in that delega
tion oyer the unit rule conducted him
self witli an impartiality whicn won
the respect of ail.
Ho was the unanimous choice of the
delegation from his'uative State as the
candidate for the Vice-Presidency, as
he, was of the Ohio, Tennessee and
several other State delegations. He
could have been nominated upon
the ticket witli General Garfield
hail lie not peremptorily de
clined to be a candidate. In the ex
citing Senatorial contest of last
winter he was made a candidate for
the United States Senate after Mr.
Oliver withdrew. The temper which
the independents displayed prevented
his election, although but for the feel
ings engendered by the acrimonious
contest he would have been the unan
imous choice of the. Republican
party.
To this brilliant military and civil
record he adds powers of mind and
expression second to few men in the
State. His social life and personal
character is without a flaw. No friend
or foe has ever questioned his valor,
integrity, purity of character or broad
intelligence. What more need be
said of a muu?
