THE Pennsylvania Legislatuee is still at. a deadltwk over the senatorial -eleotlon. G F.oRGczA's electoral vote may not be counited finr Hancock. The Federal .w p'ovides (lat electors shall Iect at their respVctive ca~itfals oi the first Wedesdayi in Deceinher and eas.t heir votes for President -11d 7iee-Presi dent. The Georgia State law fixes Wedulesday- aft1er the first Monday. As the Wedtnesday after the first. Moiday ha ppCId to be the second Wedieusday of sit December, Georgia was a weec behindhand. This foolish blunder Will not ailmoult to alythinig nlow., but if Ilan11cock had carried New York it might have furnished material for a Radical rjebellion. The Apportionncit Bill. The Apportionment Bill will fail this session, although twenty State Legislatnres, which meet bi-ninially, are now in session, and the failure of the bill will entail hundreds of thou dsands of dollars' expense for extra ses sions. Mr. Cox who, besides heing at wit, is one of the most learned metn bers of the 1-louse, mude an elaborate speech last week. urging an inimedi ate passage of the bill, and argiing it favor of 301 ts the nuber, instead of 293. H1e showed that there was not. any party, local Or sectional incliua tion inl that nutmber. U nder his bill the old slave Stales would gain eight and lose two members; the .M iddle States would lose three and the New England States would lose three and the Western States would gain, ten andI lose two. The old shave States would make a net gain of six Reprsetatives, while the rest of the States made a net. gain of two.. That is, the West would gainl e1it, hile Nlew Eng-land, New York and Pennsylvania wllould lose six. If any one com~plained that (lhat was sectional or partisan, to might calculate the net gains North and Souti from number 290 to 319, and the South had a net gain over the North. That net gain would be as follows: -On 290 mnembers, ntne; on 291, eight.: o0 292, seven; on 293, u;o; on 294, live; on 295, six; o 296, five; on 297, four; o 298, three; on 299, four; on 300, three; on 301, four; on 302, fe;o onl 303, four ; on 304, five ; Onl 305, si x; oil 306, five ; onl 307, fou r; oil 308, five ; onl 309, four;, onl 510, fiye! on:11., six; onl 312, fly'e; onl 313, four; onl 814, fiye ; onl 315, four ; Onl 316, 819, none. The loss to the South would begin with one at 320, two at. 821, thrce at 322, two at 323, one i't 324 anid twro at 325. There, then, was ithe dilemuma to thme Northern legisla t', if' he wais olpposed to) an increasedl inmber. As the Xorthiern, States woul gain amore,(be ig larger States) .at that increase, there would be giving up to par'ty.or section what was mneanit f'or a reasonable sized body. .Any increase over his numbtier would .make the body uniwieldy.. The R~adi eals, however, have fixed on 319 as the number, which will be seent abovet takes away all the gains the South -would make through her gain ini p~opu lation. This is an in diriect, but at ver eff'ective way of gerrymandlhi~eringp, at. 11 this is whylm -t-he -diepl ' Ieh-~1 re tum t let the bill pas~s this session.

We bespeak for him, however, a% inucl better memory than he has given 1 evidence of in the statement made of the reoord of THm NEWS AND ICRALD. We opposed the aggression of corpora tionis long before our Fairfield graniger was gouged. We wore much ntearer right. on the bond question than our collteitporary. We opposed such "honiest" lleastiures as that which pro. posedA to save the Staie fron being swindled in one way and authorizing her to swinidle inl another, which de sired to reptudiate the Consolidation Act, inl so far 31s it made the State liable for Radical bonds and to adopt it lin so far as it cheateI honest holders out of fifty emeits on the dollr. The Medium has very little to boast of in the decision of the court, which very comiortably split the difference and permitted the bond holders and outr ConltlIelporary to display equal jubi lance. But a halt' loaf is better tl'an no bread, and the Medium is at liberty to roll this crumb of comfort on its tongue as much as it pleases. Tle truhie cause for rejoicing is that the CouLurt ircmioved the question from the lleina of politics, anid gave n16 oppor tunity to the repudlationists to drag Saith Carolina into the iire along with Tennessee and Virginia. That the .Jedoin has not always bei on the wi'innig side is duo rather to the weakness of the cause it sometimes Csp1ouses0 than to the malign influence of a ring.
