The House Apportionment.
It is not witliiu the range ol possibil
ity for tho democrats of the .-cuute to
ft-jimo an apportionment which will be
commensurate with tho fears of the
radical leaders in the senate and
house. Under the corruption pro
duced by dread of coming defeat , it is
utterly impossible for tho radicals to
fnunc any bill which is not on its face
a gross and palpable fraud. IX'ter
miinxl to accomplish their cu-ls at any
hazard the blind and reckless radical j
leaders iaiagiuo that they will find]
their vindication iu a partisan feeling
among tho masses of the republicans.
But they utterly mistake the spirit of
the time. The violent partisan meas
uros which might have been palliated
or excused, or even defender! in ape- j
riod of war and revolution, are closely j
and jealously criticises I when the eouu
try is at rest. The people are recov
ering (torn the effects which the war!
has had on public and political mor
als. Thev cau no longer be made the
' sport of corrupt and designing dema
gogues. In the midst ot the confusion
y and violence of war, bounty-broker
and the political trickster iu the leg
\ islatnre could ply their trades with itn-
Nponitv; and by frequent mouthiug of
Ihe cant phrases of a false patriotism,
obtain credit for honesty and disinter
eslrd real for the public service. A
repetition of the legislative gerryman
der of 180-4 cannot be made in thei
presence of the fair-minded and fair
dealing people of this Commonwealth -
and the authors of the house appor.
tionmcut are as complete anachron
isms as are the bounty jumpers of the
same rear of lbt>4. "Gerrymandering
tricks and shoddv contracts have had
their shameful day. The authors olb
tho house bill do übt rightly interpret
the sentiment that is abroad. Instead
of making a break-water agaiust the
coming political deluge by means of a J
fraudulent apportionment of senators
and members, they will only accele
rate their doom. They will furnish
but another formidable weapeu for
their own destruction. Tho public,'
conscience has been too thoroughly
aroused to patiently submit to the dis
honest tricks of such paltrv dema
gogues as Senator White and Repre
sentative Elliott. Their gerrymau
d- r, even if successful in the legisla
ture, would be broken to pieces by the
ballots of an indignant people.
In a former article we ! avi shown
the gross inequalities of this bouse
bill. It bears iu itself the evidence of
two things ; firstly, that the wise and :
prudent leaders of tho party have not
been called into consultation in the ,
construction of the bill, but that it has
been the work of reckless and uu-,'
scrupulous blunderers; and, secondly,!
that it was prepared in great haste
and precipitancy, aud submitted to
the house before tho shrewder couu- '
sollors of tho party eonld have an op- '
portunity to lick it into becoming
shape. There is not a republican pol-j 1
iticiaa in the state who values his rep- '
utation for shrewdness, to say nothing
of common honesty, who would have
his name associated with the forma
tion of this bill. The grossucss of the '
fraud defeats itself, and leaves it with
out hope of defense or vindication,
except among the hardiest cainp-fol- l
lowers. If such an offense were pun-;
hhable iu cur courts, the authors de- f
serve seven years, the entire duration
of the apportionment, in the peniten
tiary of the state, where they might
learn some useful calling, picking oakv
urn, for instance, instead of making!-
such a distribution of members of leg- /
islatnre in order to defraud the pco- !
pie of their rights. |,
A apportionment which presses re
publican districts far below the ratio,
aud puts democratic districts away
above it, as does this bill, cannot
be described as anything but a fraud,
in which its authors have cot merely
# violated the principles of honesty, but
have broken their solemn oaths to '
support the constitution. In the thir
teen democratic senatorial districts
there is an excess of 32,393 taxable*;
in other words, their number of taxa
ble democratic citizens is deprived of ;
rLpAx-ntation. The twenty republi- (
can aistricts arc deficient in their quo
tas to the number of 20,334 tnxables,
This is a dishonest discrimination; :
against the democrats to the extent of,
52,927 taxables, or more thau enough i
for two senators. For the house, the
democrats lose representation to the !
number of 15,430 taxables, while the!
republican counties do not come up to'
the aggregate ratios by 15,938; mak
ing a discrimination against the dem
ocraets of 31,424. This, added to the
loss in the distribution of senators, un-j
der this fraudulent house bill, makes a
loss to the democrats of 84,451 iu tax
able representation. What cogging
radical knave has so manipulated the
lists of taxable* as to produce this re
sult? Nearly one hundred thousand ,
democrats utterly disfranchised, and■]
representation given nearly one hun
dred thousand who have no existence
except under this monstrous appor
tionment! We have already shown
the deformities, geographical and po
litical, which have been produced iu
the incubation of this bill. Let every
honest republican in the State com
pare it with the apportionment made;
by the senate, and then let him blush
for tho corruption and profligacy of
the radical leaders of tho house.
A shabby apology has been made
iu behalf of this bill, to the effect that
it has broken up the double senatorial
districts. Radical experience in dou
ble senatorial has not been so agreea
ble as to make the leaders very par
tial to the systcjn. In untying the
double districts in the senate bill the'
following result has been procured:
Crawford with 17,853 taxable*, obtains
one senator, while Luzerne with 42,•
\ taxables has but one senator.
This is the way in which the double'
districts of the'senate bill are uutied.j
• When necessary for party advantage,
the framerx of this bill have joined
counties together to produce a like in
equality. It is vain to attempt to
-how that they have been guided by
any semblance of principle in their
olumsy and mi--hnpfeu apportion
ment. For members of the house the
-euate bill preserves the unities of
counties, and makes no less than sixty
, one district* on the principle of sepnr
-jato representation tor each county.
The tranters f the gerrymander seek
to destry this sound and salutary prin
-0 ciple, and make only forty eight di
strict* in accordance with it. They do
nv Westmoreland county -eparate
-: representation, but smother her demo
eVatio majority in the embrace of the j
ntdical county of Indiana. l hi-di*-
i> Uibutiotl may suit a thorough going
partisan, but every lioncst man in tin
; commonwealth will condemn it. Let
j Indiana oouuly have a republican 1
- member, but when the attempt i
niade to use Iter majority to outdrown
the voice of the democrat* <>f \Ve*t
<, morelnnd, the spirit of the constitution
■ is flagrantly violate*!, nu*l a pros

Ithat apjMriioonient the principle ot :

The Combat I terpens.
Vvr-aile- , April ("• Night. - The can
nonade and musketry firing was contin
ued all this afternoon to the south of Paris
between the insurgent position at Mun
tronge and that of the government at Cba
tiilion. Similar firing was also heard to
the uorthca-t "f Paris, evidently between
Asnien-s and Nanterra, and toward* Col
tubes. Lorts Ivry, Bieetre, and fharen
ton were also engaged in a contest with a
|n>rtion of the artillery of the Versailles
army. The government troops made vigor
ous attack upon the insurgent Nationals at
Neutilly, and were aided therein by the
fire of Fort N1 ut Valcrien and the batter,
iuw at Courbevoie. The combat still con
tinues, and the Nationals have everywhere
abandoned tho offensive for tho defensive-
A large force of the insurgents is at ticri
nevilltcr. surrounded by the government
troops. A bold attempt has been tnade by
them to pierce the lines of tho Versailles
army and return to Paris, but it proved ul
terly futile.
Ycr-nilb-. April, 7 Violent cannouad
ing was heard both In-t night and this morn
ing in the direction of Courbevoie, to the
northea-t of Paris, and of Übatillion, south
of that city.
The rumor that General Ilcnry has been
executed by order of Versailles govern
ment is apocryphal in view of the fact that
the special corrc.-pondent of the L-ndoti
Telegraph saw him killed by a shell from
Fort M>>nt Valcrien. Tho story U proba
bly circulated by the in■>urgent* to fau the
excitement against the government.
M. Regnlere, who has been siifj-ectcd of
an attempt at negotiation with the er
saille government, has been nrrctod and
imprisoned by order ofthe Commune.
The government troops carried Pont do
Neuiliy this afternoon and crossed the
(Seine at i. '*) p. 111. under a tremendous fire
from the guns and mitriilcuset of the in
surgents. They advanced up tho Avenue
do Neuiliy, driving the insurgent- furious
ly bnck Inside the city, and advanced as
far as l'orte Maillet. The slaughter was
great. The troops hold positions right un
der the ramparts.
The rebel- in Fort* Issy and \ nnvre.*
have reused firing now. The troops are *0
near Paris that they aro firing shell* into
the city continually. The greatest con-
sternation prevail*. The insurgent* have
suffered heavily.
The government troops fought most
plendidly at Nunterrc, where General
Oallifet whipped the rebels badly. No
particulars of the fight have been received.

the diseu--ion on the Ku Klux bill in the
Houe was relieved to-d*y by pretty full
galleries nn I the lively speeches on the
floor. The British commissioners filled a
front row in the diplomatic gallery, and
remained for nearly three hours, evidently
interested in the so-called great Ku Klux
que-tion. General Garfield led offfroin the
lb-publican side in a speech of very inod
erato tendencies and quite able in its expo
sition ofthe iniquitous and unconstitutional
feature* of the pending bill Then Ben
Butler took tho floor in a rahibling politi
cal effort In which ho cried lu tily for just
one hour in which he could rule over the
Bouth, and present a picture of the way he
would dangle fr nn tho limb* of tho tree*
thu Southern people who were opposing
Radical corruption, plunder, and oppres
sion. No one, howover, seemed disposed
to supply an amendment to carr out this
modest request. Mr. Cox followed Butler
in nn hour's speech, which he delivered
with fine emphasis, and which was replete
with original paints and itnportcnt legal
views. 110 paid his respects to Butler 1 *
lusty ery for power, and characterised him
as tho chartered libertine of tlio House in
debute. Ho referred in grupliic term* to
the Ku Klnx societies that had sprung up
in tho long line of history as tho result of
political oppression, and denounced them
us dangerous to the liberties of the people,
but at the same time denounced the politi
cal party that created organization
by a system of plunder, disfranchisement, I
and oppression. Mr t'ox also presented
in n vlvcd manner the bankrupt carp. t-bag
nil., in South Carolina as a sample of Kadi
eal reconstruction, and then elaborated in
forcible 'alienage tile legal ebjqfltlon* to

A family in the village where the writer

Anna vru> spending her last moments in

with an is pre., urn of toy aud surprise, she
exclaimed, "Ciara! Clara! Clara!" and,
after a few momenta silence, in which she
seemed to behold her departed sister, she
died.
The girl was a inert child, and tha cir
cumstance, which was related to ine by
one of her teachers, left pleasaul impres

'The soul's dark cottage, but ered and de

Stronger by weakness, wiser men become
As they draw near to tbeir eternal home;
Leaving tho old, both worlds as one they

It is ca-y to raise these questions; it is
impossible to answer them. Rut. aside
from any discussion of the truth or fallacy
of such appearance*, the data thvutselvw*
are interesting; and 1 have collected from
various authors a i. umber of tbrui, which
the readrr may .interpret according to bis
faith or skepticism.
The melancholy history of Louis XVII,
dnuphiti and titular king of France, is welll
known. He was a lively and beautiful j
boy, ardently attached to his father and
mother, in whosa society hit time was
wholly spent before the stormy period of
the ('evolution. Ilis Inst interview with
his father in the Temple was most etfeot
ing, and it is related that the queen fought
the guards who came to remove him from
her apartment in prison, until her strength
was exhausted and she fell upon the stone
floor, rigid and seusele**, like one dead
After the execution of hi- parents, he wa
given over to the care ufa shoemaker in
the temple, a wretch named Simon, who
cruelly tortured him, w ith the design of
causing hi* death without committing pal
pable murder. He was placed in aSi -thy
cell, where he could neither breathe fresli
sir nor take rxerci-e, and was left entirely
alone Jay after dav, with only a scanty
supply "f food ami water. His bed was
not made for six months, and his clothes
were not changed for a year Hi* keeper

without provocation. His limb* became
•tiff through inactivity, aud his mind be
came vacant and darangod. He UMKI to sit
lit bis chair utterly motionless, without*"
much s* attempting to drive away the rats
that nibbled at hi* clothing and feet
Some remark that he had made having
been con-trued to the aproach of his
mother, he resolved li"t to speak again,
,:.J , raft beatings could nut force him to
break his resolution. After the overthrow
of the revolutionary government of Robes
pierre and the Jacobins, he wfiu placed un
der the guardianship of more merciful
keepers , but hit health had been imp*red
bey. lid recovery, and he died in the sum
mer of 17US, in the arms of Laune, one of
hi* guardian*. Just before he expired, he
was asked if he was in |>ain. ' Yes," he
answered, "but not in so much a* I was—
the music is so sweet! ' It was a quiet
June dav. and there was no inusio in or
areund tne Temple. He seemed to listen .
his face grew calm and beautiful, hit spirit
shining through his wasted feature* like a
lamp through a shaJe cf alabaster. He
said: "Do you not hear the niusicT' On*
a-Ued wh'-nee it came. He answered ,
"From above!'' His large eye- grew
more luminous; hi* attention became
•tcadily fixed. a though he were listening
to low, sweet voice* iii the air. He at last)
said, with a look of intense joy and satis- j
faction: ' From all t f Iks other r i'ts, /j

The w hole family were condemnod to he

who was lighting the fagot*, "(iod is not
your father; ye arc tho devil's children."
The flames arose, and the boy looked
heavenward. "Look, my father'" heex-j
claimed, in a voice of transport; "all hcav-,

The protomartyr behald God's glory and;
died, and in all ages have there been those,
who have supposed that they saw celestial,
visions at the parting hour. "The celes

Thome- Heutt. "1 breathe the air of lies-!

-aid Warker of Truro, "upon tho wings ofj
the cherubim." "Uhri-t-angels-benuli-j
(ul- delightftil!" were the last word* of
Dr. Hope "1 not only feel the climate,
but 1 brealbelbe ambrosial air of heaven,"
said H. 8. Golding, "and 1 shall soon epjov

unuttcrnole," said Rev. Mr. Holland. "1

Smith. "Thev praise Him! they praise
Him I What glory! the angds are waiting
for mo 1" said Dr. Batonmn. "Oh, those
rays of glory," said Mrs. CUrkson. "Oh
the greatness ofthe glory that is revealed
to me"' -aid Lndv Hasting*. "Do you
seo," said Edmund Auger, "that blessed
assembly who await my arrival ?_ Do you
hear that sweet music with which holy
men invito me, that I may henceforth be a
partaker of their happiness? How delight
ful it Is to be In the society of blessed spirits!
Let us go! We must go! Let me go!"_
The countenance of Mr*. Howe boro wit
ness that she was receiving remarkable
manifestations from the unseen world. Bhv
said, with tears of joy, that hc had expe
rienced such happiness in dying that "she
knew not that she hud felt tho like in all
her life."
A remarkable Instance of a sei ene and
beautiftil exit appears in tho history ofj
Jane, of Navarre, who was a most
enlightened and pious sovereign. Bishop
Burnet says; "Sue not only reformed her
court, but'tha whole principality, to such
a degree that the golden age seemed to
have returned under her. or, rather'Uhris-j
tianity appeared again with it* primitive
purity and lustre." She was poisoned by
perfume* sent to her by an Italian apothe
cary at tho direction or Catharine de Medi
ci*. The religious persecution* in r ranee
drove many Protestant* to seek an asylum
in Nnvorre. Among these was an eloquent
divine, named .lames Faber Slapulensis.

reigti of Jane, where ho Uvea to be * cen
tenarian. To show her respect for hi* lear
ning, piety, and great age, the queen, j
made 11 feast for him, to which she invited
many learned and illli-trious men. He
came, but with a melancholy and dejected
countenance. Tho queen wsked him the
cause of his unusual sadness. He answered:
"llow can 1, O queen, bo cheerful myself,
or contribute to the clieorftilnoss of others,
who nin the most wicked creature upon tho
fare of the earth 7"
"But what," aske.l the nuoin, "can that
wsckednM* be which you naveeominitted,
who from your youth nave appearo to live
a most holv life?"
"I have lived," he said, " to an hundred
and one year* puro from every stain ofj
lewdness, and do not recollect any thing
particular on theaccouutof which I thould
fear leaving lite with a troubled conscience,
except one, which, however, I hope may

The death of old Kberhard Stilling, the
gmndfalher of Johann Jung-Stilling, was
so wonderful and beautiful, that it leoius
more like a fiction than a reality I have
seen nothing like it, so poetical, dream
like, and airy, He went with his children
into a wood, one day, and left them to play
by a beautiful spring while be went to
gather some fagots. On his return he ap
'peared very cheerful and happy, folding
liis hands and smiling. He sat duwn by
the side of his children and told them the
follow ing story "On leaving you to go
into the wood, 1 saw at a distance before
me a light just at when the sun rises in the
morning. 1 was much surprised 'What

with such a friendly manner, with the very

all was forest before me; the glorious vision
had departed. "Children. 1 shall die toon;
