to: Mrs. Garfield imploring her to

Up to the present time there has
been less of party politics displayed
in the deliberations of the present
Congress, than in any preceding
Congress for many years. There
was a little exhibition of party spirit
in the discussions on the apportion
ment bill, but aside from that there
has been:little of party politics dur
ing the present session. Evidently
both parties; before the close of the
session will evolve new issues and
develop new departures upon impor
tant political questions, which will
become prominent party questions.

After Tt struggle.of four Weeks, the
House on Friday last passed the Con
gressional apportionment bill: The bill,
if it shall beep* a law, fixes the 'num
ber of representatives under ithe' list
census at 325, an increase of 32 over
the present nunabei, which i 5293. lt
enacts, that after the 3d of. March,
1883!, the HoUse of Representatives
shall be composed of 325 memberi,- to
be apportioned among the. several
states, as followS: 7 Alabama,: 8;

sents the following features: `Eleven

members. Ten DemocrStiO States—
Arkansas, Georgia, Kentucky, Mississ

Republican ' . States—Maine, New
Hampshire and V,ermont, lose three,
leaving the sum total of gain to the
Repiiblican States sixteen, and to the'
Democratic States fifteen. New
York will therefore be the .pivot that
will settle the question of gain or loss
between.the respective parties under
this bill. : if the one member gained
';by that state be apportioned to Brook=
lyn or New York City, the Democrats
will probSbly elect him and neither
party will reap any political advantage
from this re-apportionment.' 'ln so far
as it effects the electoral college the
advantage will be.slightly in laver. of
the Republican States—The atire
number being 401 7 -necessary to :elect

have 189—The sure Democratic States
153—leaving to the doubtful states 59.
j In ordci to elect a President the'Di-m

cases being precisely the satrie„ and

stomach in both cases revealed: the
presence of arsenical poison, , and a
verdict was tendered by a coroner's
jury in accordance with the facts. No
arrests have yet been made, Gut the

parties. The two sisters - Were under
the will of their father, who' -died two
.years since, heirs to quite /an estate;
which in case of their death .descended
to i
other relatives. It is supposed that
in this fact is hidden the key of their
mysterious death.. There are now
thirteen prisoners to the District jail on
the charge of murder, and hardly a

War Against Polygamy.
SAiT LAKE, Utah, Feb. 17.—At a
meeting of. prominent Gentiles of Utah
last night the following preamble and
resolutions were adopted: !.Whereas,
the Legislature of Utah, now in session
in this city, to"-day adopted a concurrent
resolution protesting against the pas
sage by .Congress of any bills disfran
chising polygamists, and praying Con
gress to send a committee to investigate
the condition of things in Utah : 'Re
solved, That such action is merely a.
polygamous bluff—,L. a trick to gain time
—and that if it wins these very men
will claim it is a divine interposition in
faVor of polygamy and use it to excite
the masses of the Mormon people against
the just authority of the national goy
eminent; that the fact that three-fourths,
or the Legisl•ture andthemselves prac
tical polygamists exposes the condition
of things in Utah without the interven
tion of an investigating committee ;
that their action is this ease betrays the
fear that the disfranchi4ing of polygon)•
ists will ; break up polygamy, and there.
fore indicates precisely what Congress
ought to do; that we most ,respectfully
urge Congress not to be deterred from
perfecting the good work on whi"ch it is
engaged by the protests of men who
are acknowledged polygamists them
selves, and who adopt this 'differential
attitude only because their ordinary at
titude of defiance will not, Apparently
serve them In a mortal emergency; that.
that there need be no fear of convulsion
or disturbance if Congress now adopts
effective measures to 'settle Utah
affairs, but that if it .does not the sim
plest duties of statesmanship will have
been disregarded, as they have too long
.been, and the chance of peacefully set

have been placed'in jeopardy.

Chester has long 4431 'askance' Pro
fessor Jackson's pyrotechnic manufac
tory at bedand and Welsh Sir ets. Its
master hi known the
,coritry over tut
posessing arjertile mind for thoproduct
tion of strange and - brilliant fireworks.
During' the Centennial his displays
amazed the -foreigners Who . witnessed
thetn. But his, makiug of explosive
beauties in Philadelphia's - limits watt ,
natjiked, and wer.l publioly denounced,:
• when on- March :29, 1862, his factory' ,
int:6'oV exploded and killed seven
teen persons. So the Professor some
year ago . went down to Chester and
dial his dangerous work in the - old Porter
Mansion. Chester • folks thottght Jae'
was a dangerous neighbor, bnt 'then
the building wail onthe edge of . the
townawl had no structikes adjoining it
on, any side.. itist Friday' morning,
shortly aftet , e.even.o'clock, an alarm of
fire came from the Potter !nape. Au
eniployce, while kindling a' lire, had
been : driven from the building by
flames and smoke. The firemen - hur, ) ,
tied to the scene. The sight presented'
was a gorgeOus one. It might be
'thought theta pyrotechnical display in
the daytime would not be vtry.brilliant,
tut the dark smoke i presented t heavy
background, and through the: murky
vapor bright stars and:brilliant balls of
every imaginable•hue , flashed in rapid
succession. It was beautiful to beheld,
but suggestive of danger. Ttle firemen
boldly attacked the enemy, however,
until a slight explosion- warned, them
back. Meanwhile seven or eight kegs
of Powder that had been. stored in a
rear addition to the building were re
moved by Chief Bligineer Dalton to a
magazine fifty feet away. .
.The firemen asked if tIWy might.
again approach in • safety, and. those
employed about . the ,factoiy assured
them that no dangerexisted anknot
plosion of any consequence could occur.
A.ladder was boldly placed against a
wing to the building, and the men
mounted it It waS.not fully manned .
when the entire attnccure was swept
away like chaff - before the wind, and in
this terrible hurricane were carried
every human.ohstacle in its path. Men
were sent flying through the trees that
surrounded the building, and even yet
their clothes can be seen hanging to the
topmost branche's. Eight brave firemen
.met with .death,.and ten of the spectaT
tors paid their lives as the• penalty of
their Leuribsity. • The forms
. of some
of the . dead were mangled almost beyond
recognition: The tornado spent its
`breath out Second street, which faced
the hnrning building. • It shattered the
windows for squares -around, and, in
,many instances, .even shivered the
sashes; The report of the explosion.
I •
was heard a mile away.
When tt,e smoke cleared away the
sight presented aronua the struelure_
was one that any -description of would
invite aieharge of deliberate exaggera
tion. Bloodwas sprinkled around as
though the spot 'had been visited _ by - a
crimson shower, rithlets forming. .and
cent - ring in great pitsl4,' Human limbs
mire scattered about. 'Everywhere
were heard the shrieks ofthe wounded.
Aid was instantaneous, and sOOO the
town was transformed into one great
hospital. The stores and great factor
ieii, and even John Roach's busy ship
yard; were closed, and knots of people
gathered on the street corners an i talked
in subdued tones of the -;ealamity. A
jury of inquest was promptly surlmon T
ed, and an investigation begun', but
the matter was looked into ;only'' deep
enough . to render . the . mystery i more
Unexplainable, Fireworks; as explo
sives do not possess 'the stength dis
played by the force that(vented` its
rago in the little stone' staucture adjoin
ing the Fprter tirnsion. The power
that was "displayed was sirnt4 marvel
ous, and it could only haye had its
(Agin in some one o the , mihy explo
sive compounds that are net , allowed,
1
to be brought withiorthe limits of most
cities. The fact—which is denied by'
Professor Jackson—that the formida
ble looking cartridges used in_ Spring-,
'field rifles were secreted sointiwhere
'in the building is suspectible of proof.
Eighteen persons I were killed out
right, several iojurerfatally and over
fifty were wounded, etime - of them in a
frightful manner.
