How The Recent Elections Will Affect The Committees. ‘THE DEMOCRATIC LOSS IX EXPERIENCED MEM- ‘BERS—A BALANCE SHERT—COMMITTEE CHAIR- MEN AND MEMBERS LEFT AT HOME, Of the 325 members of the House Sf Repre- sentatives, 119, or more than one-third, will retire at the end of the coming session, to be succeeded in the next Congress by men chosen in their places at the recent election, Ina few of the cases—such, for instance, as Hewitt, of New York; Daniel and Tucker, of Virginia; Mitehell, of Connecticut, and others—the retire- ‘ment has been voluntary, either to accept some Other position or to attain the peace and quiet of private life. But asa rule the changes have been wrought by the popular will. Ina num- ber of districts the sitting members had their party indorsement, but were defeated at the polls. Of the new members to come in with the next Congress 81 are democrats and 33 are republicans, Itis@ fact not disputed that experience is as gssentlal to good service in Congress as ability. ‘The cupremucy so long maintained by the south in ante-bellum times is generally attribu- ted in @ large degree, at least, by writers of political histury, to the custom then prevalent in that section 'of continuing thelr Congress- men in public ilfe, It passes almost as an axiom among men of legisiative experience that at Jeust one term of Congress ly necessury for the education ofa member; that he cannot become phificlent Ip the rules dnd practical methous of legislation in less time than one term. [vis cuutilued service tut fits members for leader- ship. That is evidenced by the iact tbat itis ouly men of long experience who are ever coun- tenunced as leaders in either branch of Con- gress. THE DEMOCRATS’ DISADVANTAGE. In the next Cungress the democrats maintain @ reduced mujority, but they will labor under the disadvantage of naving a lurge element in- experienced in national legislation, The re~ Publican side, with the exception of a small percentage, Wil consist ot imen more or le: (rained in legislatiu, Nearly one-half of the democrats Will be new to thé work on band, and the embarrassmentof that purty, in tt event ofa purtisun contest, will be ticreused by the loss, among Its deteated wemvers, ol sume of {ts abiést patiiuamentariaus and ’ devuters.

Points From the Adjutant Genera?s Report, The adjutatt general, in his annual report to the Secretary of War, states that the reports of the inspestion of encampments of state troops unmistakably evidence a slowly maturing tem- Perand character destined to still more closely unite the regular army aud the militia, the twin parts of the detensive power of the govern- ment. He recommends that state encampments should be at least of ten days duration, divested of every uppé@arance of holiday attire, and that ‘@ more thorough acquaintance with the skirm- ish drill be gbtained. Onsolete arms and ame Munition should be replaced by improved guns Of the same pattern us those in the hands of tue regular army, with suitable ammunition. ‘The material cumposing the militia of the several states 18 gensrally excellent, and zeal and in- telligence the rule; but the former must be wisely directed and the latter systematically cultivated.
