Clarkson and Civil Sergice. A delegation of Maryland republican clubs called on Gen. J. 8. Clarkson at the rooms of the republican congressional campaign com- mittee yesterday afternoon and presented to him resolutions thanking him for his expressed opposition to the civil service law. Hon. A. Worth Spates of Baltimore made the presenta- tion address. Mr, Clarkson responded, thank- ing the committeo snd the republican agsociation that they represented for the kindness shown and the faith expressed in him. He said he was not opposed to a reformed civil service, nor to one made intelligent in the most practical degree. But he would wake the examinations departmental and conducted by those under whom tl lerks would have to work. and would always select all clerks in parlpea! with th ed in power, He added it he believed this to be a representative vernment, based on party respousi- ility, and that no faa in power could escape this sponsibility if it-tried. Therefore, he believed that any administration, state, national, or county, was titled to have all places under it filled by its friends, or those anxious for its success and Rot ite failure. Referring to the allusion made his record in changing democratic for re- ublican postmagsers, he said he evuld not ve displaced democrats if nd's reform administration had_not put te in and republicans out. He added that he had no a ies to make to any one for the demo- erate he had removed from office. pentane a ay ‘Wyoming’s First State Election, following from Cheyenne: ‘Che first Wyoming ttate election resulted in the republicans elect- ing atull state ticket and Congressman by ya ae | ie 15| Tributes in the Senate to Randall and| Tne in the House to Beck.

Although always hin political opponent (Mr. Quay said) he had co to cast the myrtle on his gr In the process of attrition Mr. Randal! had always been found to be the rock of offense to republicans, Yet so true, so honest, so courageous, so absolutely chivalrous had he been that there was not one republican who, standing behind his coffin, hud not realized the thought: “I'd give the lands of Deloraine Dark Musgrave were alive again.” There was not one of them who did not be- lieve that, if it were given to immortal natures to revisit the scenes they loved on earth, his shade walked regal and distinguished among all the viewless hosts of the it that trooped struggle, toil batfle. The record of his life was one of in- dustry, INDUSTRY AND FIRMNESS were his most prominent characteristics, He ‘had wrought better for the country than for himself. Others might appear in his stead to assume the robes which had fallen from him, and might fittingly fulfill their offices; but none (Mr. Quay tliought) would ever urise to fill, for positive courage, unselfishness, patri- otisin and devotion to duty, the great chasm left in Penusylvania by Mr. Randall's death. MR. BARBOUR EULOGIZED MR RANDALL. whose integrity, he said, was spotless, whose irmness was as solid as the rock basis of the Pennsylvania mountains and whose abilities and patriotism were always equal to the ex- igencies of the most important occasion. He (Mr. Barbour) had accompanied the remains of the departed statesman to its last resting-place in the — beau- tifulcemetery near Philadelphia, and,*as he saw the great cortege of friends and neighbors assembled to do honor to his memory, he felt that the useful carcer of that simple un- ostentatious and true hearted public man was fully appreciated where he was best known and was permanently enshrined in the minds and hearts of his countrymen. ‘MR, PLUMB'S TRIBUTE. Mr. Plumb spoke of Mr. Randall as having been plain, unpretentious, kindly in bearing and conspicuously domestic in taste andinclina- tion, and richly qualified in every respect to be, as he was, the tribune of the people. To those endowments had been added rectitude of — purpose and conduct which had never been questioned in the fiercest heat of political antagoniem and which had been exemplified in a private life singularly modest und unostentatious, contributing to and sharing in those eweetand kindly ministrations that make the happy home a miniature of heaven. MR. DANIEL FOLLOWS. States That Have Smaller Delegations QT They Did at First. bership of the House of Representa- tives is already too large, but it will probably be increased by twenty-odd members under the new apportionment. The admission of new States and increase of population threatens, at the present rate, to so icrense the size of the House as to make it very difficult to transact business. Many people familiar with legislative affairs believe that now the membership of the House should be redaced rather than be increased. Since 17%) the ap- portionment hasren up from one member to every 33,900 people to one for every 151,912 people, and meanwhile the membership in the House has increased from 106 to 330. It is curious to look over the progress of ap- portionments, Every ten years the party in power figures on the census, striking many trial balances to see what apportionment will give them the advantage of most members of strength in the electoral college. One result of ail the figuring is that some of the states have fewer Representatives now than they had on the first apportionment. In member of the House represented won citizons. Tem years later cach member represented $5,000, From that the appor- tionment increased steadily to 40,000, 47.700, to 70,680, to 93,420, to 127,000, to 131,425, and then in 1880 to 151,912, as it now stands, Under the new apportionment bill Virginia will lose one Representative. In 1790 she had just nine more Representatives in the House than she now has. Before any census was taken, when the government was just or- ganized, Virginia had ten Representatives, just what she now has, Connecticut had 7 Representatives in 17 and has but 4 now. Delaware had 1 at the b ginning and still has 1. But back between 1810 and 1820she had 2 Illinois had gothing until 1810, when she came in with 4 time Indiana has had a steady growth om 1 to 3% Maryland had 6 when the government was formed, which was im- creased to 9 in 1800, and 6 is the number she now has. Mame started in with 7 under the apportionment of 1810 and now has but 4. Mensachusetts had 17" in 1800 aud now has 12. New Hampshire had 4 under the first appor- tionment and now has but half that manioe Rhode Island was given 2 atthe first ap tionment and has ad the same number WHY THEY OPPOSE THE BILL Objections ington and Cumberland Road. } A petition has been addressed to the chair- man and members of the House District com- mittee in reference to the bills pending in Con- gress, and which have been favorably recom- mended by the District Commissioners, to a: thorize the Washington and Cumberland Rail- road Company to extend its projected road; along the lino of the Chesapeake and Ohio canal into the District. The petition says: “Each and all of these bills propose to import | iato the District and into the city of Washing- ton the laws of the state of Maryland relating | to the incorporation of railroad com panics und | the laws of that state relating to theChesapeake | and Ohio canal, “The accompanying paper was prepared with reference to Senate bill 4310, but 1s equally ap- plicable, except as to some minor details, to the other proposed measures. These bills are obnoxious to the best interests of the people of the District. All are vicious in what they pro- pose, would destroy large property imier of the citizens of the District, would subvert the fixed statutes and leave our people at the mercy of any board of Commissioners that might happen, for the time being, to be in power. ‘the paper herewith, which we make # part of this memorial, fully sets forth the Mr. Daniel said that Mr. Randall was for | eave, upon the strength of which we ask that Umon for freedom, for peace; that he was the model of a public servant, and that he added honor and glory to the name of representative of the people. “In his modest, hospitable house on Capitol Hil’, in the bosom of his family. he had spent his days in the toil of love aud duty, and he had met death with the composure of an equal spirit, at peace with man and with trust in Gor RANDALL'S STAINLESS HONESTY. Mr. Blackburn spoke of the stainless honesty of Mr. Randall's carcer, saying that he entered life poor and that at the end of more than a quarter of a century of public service he went out of it only to.go into his grave still poorer. If he left the public service with hands that were empty the world kuew that he lett it with hands that were clean, His distinguishing characteristics were an honesty that was un- qnesticnable and a courage that was unfalter- ing. The Lord never made a man more honest nor oman more courageous. He never knew the name of fear. Though a broken orb should fall, fearless he would stand amidet the ruin. Peace to his ashes, honor to his memory and rest to his manly soul, OTHER TRIBUTES. Farther eloquent and touching tributes to the high character of Mr. Randall and to his honotable career in public and in private life were paid by Senators Cullom. Morgan, Gibson and Hiscock. And then, aga further mark of respect, the Senate at 2 p.m. adjourned till Monday at noon. HOUSE. The approval of the journal of Tuesday's proceedings was the first question presented to the House when it met this morning, and the clerk proceeded to call the roll on this ques- ion. The journal was approved—yeas, 157; nays, 0O—the clerk noting a quorum. Every democrat present and not paired voted in the affirmative. The clerk then proceeded to the reading of the journal of Wednesday's procecd- ings, which Mr. O’Ferrall (Va.) demanded should be read in full. The Speaker suggested that this would tend only to consume the time which had been as- signed to the Beck eulogies, Mr. O’Ferrall retorted that he was aware of what he was doing. He was responsible to his constituents and not to the Speaker. ‘The Speaker pee that the gentleman was responsible to the country. Mr, O'Ferrall expressed his reaainess to take all the responsibility which attached to him. THE JOURNALS APPROVED. The journals of Wednesday, Thursday and Friday were read and approved without ob- jection, and then the House proceed to pay its last tribute of respect tothe memory of the late Senator James B. Beck of Kentucky. MR. BRECKINRIDGE EULOGIZES SENATOR BECK.

Tho accompanying statement referred to sets out at length the objections urged against the bills, which, it is stated. the Commissioners returned to Congress with their approval with- out the usual notice of public hearing accorded the citizens on other railroad bills. The peti- tioners urge as the first objection to the bill that. as itis claimed, it authorizes the com- pany to exercise in the District all the powers couferred by its Maryland charter, which in- clude liberal powers of condemnation. It is asserted that uuder these Jaws, among other things, the company could change the location of constructed line at any time by condemning a new one and could condemn “any road, street, alley or public way,” regard- less of the wishes of the municipal authoritios, ‘The second objection is that the route through the District is not defined. but left to be fixed by the Commissioners and the railroad com- ¥. The provisions of the bili generally provid- ing that the road shall proceed from the junc- tion of the canal and Rock creek “by such route as shall be approved by the Commis- sioners of said District north of the intersection of 17th street west with the Potomac river” it is claimed practically takes in the whole city, the sole limitation being that the road shall be north of the point named, Objection is raised also to the section of the bill granting the company to acquire within the District the title of the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal Company to its properties rights, “in manner and form a: rovided by said charter and acts of the general assembly of the state of Maryland.” © question is raised why the laws of Maryland are called in again in this case and whether this is not an attempt to validate the litigated claim of the old canal company, ‘It is asked also why the railroad company should want the canal company’s rights _— part of the city lying south of Kock k, where it does not propose to run its road on the former line of the canal. It is urged that the proposed measure violates the act of Congress ay ved iy Ad 1870, which provides that no rai shall built ‘until the route and termini of such road shall have been approved and sanctioned by Congress.” PRESENTED TO THE COMMITTEE.

Watertown, N.Y., Sept. 13.—The rain which has fallen in torrents almost continually for five days past has swollen every stream in this section to spring-freshet height, and today the effects are seriously felt hereabouts by the almost complete tying up of | the Rome, Watertown and Ogdensburg. | railroad and its branches, the destrac- tion of mills and other damage to manufacture | iug and farm property. A big washout oo- | curred on the Rome, Watertown and Ogden- | burg between Mansville and Pierrepont Manor, | in this county, last night, the flood carrying | away the track for about 30 feet and making & | deep channel across the line. H A new iron bridge which had just been com- pleted at Centerville, a mile west of Richland | on the Kome branch, was also carried away during the night This morning one of the «tone abutments was washed away and the other ie going. Near Deer river, west of G , on the | Utica and Biack river division,there is another washout, but this will be repaired within a few hours. At present direct railroad and mail communication from northern New York is | shut off with the south, east aud west and will be until the Deer river break is repaired, DAMAGE EVERYWHERE. North of here no break is reported and trains are made up here and sent in that direction on schedule time. A train also started east over the Utica and Black river division this morn- ing and will be ready to pass over the Deer river break as soon as it is repaired. At Copenhagen, Lewis county, Campbell's machine shop was tipped over by the flood dur- ing the night, and Lampher & Keyes’ it and cheese box factory and Ward's saw mill were carried away. At New Boston, Lewis county, the new Boston saw mill and cheese box factory were carried == aaway. Mauy acres of good farm land are under water in this county, In the town of Champion and elsewhere in the Black river valley yester day the water rose to such a height that the | cattle took refuge on the knolis aud highlands | and were made to swim through the flood at | milking time. Black river is raging, being | within four inches of the unusually high point which it reached last spring, and with | frequent showers etill coming and the water still flowing into the valley from yesterday's rains there 1s a probability that i pass that high-water mark and become dangerous. a ALL QUIET IN TICINO, The Insurgents Holding Prisoners te | Save Them From the Populace, Benve, Sept. 13.—Affairs in the canton of Ticino are very orderly today.
