dOL^MBT?. S.C. gand?y fcor?ing, March 2^1878< n?n of a IffeW. Mode of 'Representation. In considering the new method of rep? resentation devised by Dr. Glarke, of New .York, we foand him maintaining, as its germ, the idea that tho suffrage ia comparatively pare in small oonstituen oiee. TJpon this fact, he bases the ne? cessity that large ones should be sub? divided; and further, that the small Sonstituenoies thus established shall not be sabjeot to the manipulation or impro? per Influence of the offloeaoeker or poli? tician. Thin, he thinks, oan be effected by determining them by lot. Th-ase con? stituencies sre to choose, each, its repre? sentative elector, who mast be debarred the privilege of declining to serve. The plan farther contemplates that they shall not be limited in tbeir ohoice to their own members, bat have the range of the town or ward in which it may bo includ? ed. Voting should be by ballot or viva voce. The body of representatives so . ohoscn in any ward or town will consti? tute a college of eleotors for each ward or town, and appoint in public session, viva voce, its various functionaries. Tbey will also appoint one or more eleotors of a higher class, to represent them and the people for whom they aot in a higher college for the selection of Ooanty of? ficers, members of Assembly, &o. In like manner, this secondary aollege in every Goanty should ohoose a still higher grade of electors,' to represent it in a higher electoral college, in the appoint? ment of the executive functionaries of the State and the judiciary. The vote of an elector in any grade should have weight in his college, according to the number of registered voters that he might represent. Oar theorist insists that this gradation would not fail to ee enre in the higher colleges of electors men picked out, not only for their high and established oharaoter, bat also for their understanding of the exigencies of the public service, and for their acquaint? ance with the men boat fitted to meet them. Nomination by aaoh a body would be presumptive of merit, . and baffle combinations of politicians and devioea of party. The speoial merit claimed for this sys? tem is that it promises to purify the structure of civil government at its base, and' to orolude from it the blighting presence of political management. Through it we are promised for the' foundation stone of our new fabric a body of representative eleotors possessed of character and Standing in their com? munities, presumably impervious to all the evil influences which politicians eonld bring against them. The higher grades pi electoral .bodies would natu? rally-bs composed of still more promi? nent and more truly represent ative oiti zeuB. At every step, a motive would exist for seleoting-the. best men instead of the tforst, as so iriften'happens ander the present. system. Supposing the scheine to be faithlally carried out, it would put an end to all sorts of 'election frauds, to fraudulent naturalization, to ropauijiig, to psrsqnation, to false regie-' ?ration, to false odonting and false re? turns, and all kindred .devices by which freeman are robbed of their bir th-right, Politioijfev'jjes and .political machinery would come to an end, and with them, would go politicians and offlae-s eekers, who do not wait to be called into their service by the people, bat .by wire-pall? ing ana other such influences really elect themselves. Rotation in office would be the next to fall, and tho high and complex functions of legislation be saved from falling into inexperienoed and un? tried hands. "How far-reachiog and disastrous this evil is, what waste it breeds and what profitless trouble; how it retards the amelioration of all social evils, and how truly it has taken from the science of legislation all the faou lty of progress, we shall never know, and common minds cannot even oonoeive, till some method is adopted whereby the best intelligence of the times shall be put in the steady control of public af? fairs." We have given a tolerably fall analysis of this novel theory, mostly ia the words of its originator. It is ably coooeived and laoidly unfolded. Whether it oaa be successfully pat into praotioe as a sub? stantial reform, and the positive results that may be expected to flow from it in operation, we shall consider some other any. The writer is in earnest, and his contribution towards the solution of a real difficulty and undoubted evil, is both timely aud ingenious. He justly insists that some ohange in oar soheme of government is imperatively necessary. "Is there any man," he pertinently asks, "so sanguine as to oxpeot to see good government again ia oar present system at Albany, at Harrisbarg, or at Columbia, or in any of our cities, great or small? Is there any man who expoots to see true statesmanship and intelligent fidelity to the publla interests re-appear at I Washington? K there be such, it would not core him of bis folly, though he were brajed id the mortar of anarchy and sooial war.".' ij i < ??-i? "SpiMTpiiasTs" Exposed?Fun fob THB SpbotATOBS.?Lots of fun occurred at Fraternity Hall, last evening, during a spiritual seance, so-called, where an in? dividual otiling himself a "medium" proposed to do all manner of impossible things through supernatural aid. Ho bad allowed persons in the audience (perhaps confederates) |to tie bim in all sorts of-ways, bat always he would re? lease himself in a very short time. Hav? ing made such good results, so far, be grew bold, and stepping to the front of the platform, baldly challenged any per? son in the audience to fasten bim in suoh a manner that would restrain bim but a moment. Unfortunately for the "me? dium," Officer Lord, of the Fourth Po? lice Precinct, was present, and bad in bis pocket a new pair of r?chet handcuffs, which he was anxioUB to try on some one. So, accepting the defiance, be skipped on to the platform, and in a moment the "invisible's intimate" was as seonrely ironed as ever an impostor could be. Nearly, if not more than, an hour, he danced around the stage, trying to relieve himsolf of the bracelets, but all to no purpose, and finally, amid jeera of the nnoonverted and sorrow of the faithful few, he was foroed to ask Mr. Lord to use bis key and relieve him from bis uncomfortable position?in fact, to ask a policeman to render bim a service that his supernatural friends re? fused.?Boston Journal. The true girl has to be saught for. She does not parade herself as show goods. She is not fashionable. Gene? rally, she is not rich. But, ohl what a haart ehe baa when you find borl So large, and pure, nnd womanly. When you see it you wonder if those showing things outside were women. If you gain her love, your two thousand are millions. She will not ask you for a oarriage or a first-class bouse. Sho will wear simple dresses and turn them when neoessary, with no vulgar magnifioent to frown upon her economy. She'll keep every? thing neat and nice in your sky parlor, and give you suoh a welcome when you come home that you will think your parlor higher than ever. She'll enter? tain truo friends on a dollar, and aston? ish you with the new thought how little happiness depends on money. She'll make you love home (if you don't, you're a brute), and teach you how to pity, while you acorn, a poor, fashionable society, that thinks itself rich, and vainly tries to think itself happy. Now, do not, I pray you, say no more, "I can't afford to marry." Go find the true woman, and you oan.

Napoleon were made. In Octo? ber, 1852, when Napoleon, who was on the eve of becoming Emperor, was at Marseilles, an infernal machine, formed by 250 gun-barrels, oharged with 1,500 balls, was to have been discharged against the prinoe and bis oortege, but the design was not carried out. On July 5, 1853, a fresh attempt was made to assassinate him as he was going to the Opera Comique. Twelve Frenchmen were arrested us concerned in the con? spiracy. On April '23, 1855, Jean Liverani fired two shots at the Emperor in the grand avenueB of the Champs Elysoes. In 1857, Thibaldi, Bortolloti and Grilli came from- England to Paris to assassinate the Emperor, but were discovered, arrostod^ttfed and punished. On January 14, .Orsini, Gomez, Piori -and liudia threw their shells at the Empeipr. On December 24, 1856, Groeo, Trabuco, Imperatoro and Soa gliani, .who had gone from London with the intention of killing, the French Em poror,.woro arrested' in Parin. Q -? Thirty Centuries Old.?Tho oldest relic of humanity isT&e skeleton of tho earliest Pharaoh, encased in its original burial , robes, and wonderfully perfect, considering its age, which wus deposited eighteen or twenty months ago in the British Museum, and is jnstly considered the most valuable of its archaeological treasures. The lid of the coffin whioh contained tho royal mnmmy was in? scribed'with the numo of its occupant, Pharaoh Mykorimua, who succeeded the heir of tho buildor of tho great pyramid about ten centuries before Christ. Only think of itl the monarch whose crum? bling bones and leathery integuments are now exciting the wonder of numer? ous gazers in London, reigned in Egypt before Solomon was born, and only about eleven centuries or so after Mis raim, the grand-son of old father Noah, I and the first of the Pharaohs, had been gathered to his fathers. New York oity is at present encircled and defaced by a ragged edge of dilapi? dated dooks, but an effort is being made to substitnto for these woodon wharves a suocession of handsome, substantial stone piers, whioh will afford to shipping a convenient deep-water dookuge, with facilities for loading and unloading oar goes. The work has already been com? menced, and the lower and of the wedge shaped island of Manhattan bas been I built up with handsome stone piers. It is also proposed that on the New Jorsey side of the harbor the stone dock system should be applied to the long line of frontage extending from Harsimus Oove to Weehawken shore, and that on this space warehouses should be erected, so as to compete with the bonded ware? houses* on the narrow frontage on tho Brooklyn shore. + * m The record of mining oatastrophes in Pennsylvania last year inoludes 153 men killed and 462 wounded. ?

DlSINTERMEST of CHARLES I?STOANaE and Truthful Sketch.?In some re? markable instances, where the location of the burial places of celebrated por eonageB has been iu dispute, the work of identification has been accomplished by the discovery of what wero plainly con? ceived to be the remains of the indivi? dual in question. In other instances tho body has been completely identified by the olose resemblance of the faoe of the corpse to extant pictures, busts or coins. The identification of the re? mains of Henry IV, iu Canterbury Ca? thedral, after the lapse of nearly four centuries and a half, is an example of the first class of ciees. The identifica? tion of the remains of Charles I, aftsr 165 years, of the second class. The re? mains of Charles I were completely identified by the striking resemblance of the countenance, notwithstanding its disfigurement, to its portrait, and by the fact that tho neck was found smoothly divided across. Wo have tho following particulars of the cxcollent condition, after 165 years, of a body suddenly de? prived of life and ombulmed and in? terred in lead: Oq removing a part of the lead ooffiu, an inner ooffiu of wood, much decayed, was exposed, and within this the body, wrapped in cerecloth, into the folds of which an unctions matter mixed with rosin had been poured to exclude the air. The coffin was quite full, and on removing the covering from*tho face the s^tn was found dark and discolored, the furchend and temples well preserved, the cartilage of the nose gone, the cha? racteristic pointed board perfect, tho left ear entire, and the left eye open and full, though it vanished on exposure. The head was found loose and was easily taken out and exposed to view. It was heavy, wot with a liquid which gave to writing paper and linen a-greenish red tinge; the textures of the neok were solid, and the back part of the scalp was perfect and of a remarkably fresh ap? pearance. Tho hair of tho head was a beautiful dark brown, that of the beard of a redder tint. The divided muscles of the neck had retracted considerably, and the smooth surface of the divided vertebrae was visible. In the same vault in which Charles I was interred, Henry VIII was deposited. Tho leaden coffin, which had been en? closed in a thiok elm caeo, appeared to have been beaten in, so as to leave an opening large enough to expose a skele? ton of the King, with some beard npon tho chin. The body of the King bad been interred 206 years. To the preser? vation of bones it is impossible to set any limit of time. The bones of King Dagobert, disinterred from the church of St. Dennis after 1,200 years, others from Pompeii after 1,800 years, and others?as parts of Egyptian mummies? full 2,000 years old, attest their perma? nence. Avert the Danger.?Tho "ethereal mildness" with which poets credit the vernal season is more an illusion of the fancy than a meteorological fact. Early spring in temperate climates is a tearful .time, and the tears are usually too cool for health or comfort. To avert the complaints to which tho fogs and winds of tho season are apt to give rise, pru? dent people who believe in the proverb that "prevention is better than sure," fortify their stomaohs and brace npthoir nerves and muscles with Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. Those who do this are wise, aud are rewarded for their wisdom by escaping the visitations of chills and fever, rheumatism, bilious? ness, flatulency, constipation, stomach complaints, &c, so common in damp, inhospitable weather. To the leas pru? dent, who neglect this precaution, and suffer for it, wo would say, that the dis? orders whioh this potent vegetable tonio prevents it also cores.
