The only State that has been ab
solutely urliform in its Congressional
representation Is Rh.od.Qj Island. It
had two me.ubers under' the first
census and the same number ever
since. It is bound to remain ip the
name category another ten years. Its
population in 18S0 was 270,531, and
it is now 228,000. There It a varia
tion which precludes change, what
ever basis of representation may be
adopted. Delaware has always had
just one, except that under the thhd
census It had two. These are the
only constant quantities in the en

We regret very mu?lr to learn of
the death of Dr. R. B. Saunders,
brother to j Col. Win. L. Saunders,
Secretary of State, and a gentleman
well knownito many in this city.
Hg died at his residence in Durham
on Saturday evening after a long
illness, in tlje 57th year of his age.
Dr. Saunders was connected with the
Raleigh Observer when it was under
the control of Col. Saunders and the
late Mr. Petier M. Hale. ; His contri
butions on agriculture formed one
of the mostr excellent features of
that paper. He was a learned and
skilful pharmacist and a practical
chemist. His health failed a year
ago and he nas since then been' a
great sufferer. He was a gallant,
noble gentleman, true to every
honorable and manly instant. Life's
fitful fever isj over and he sleeps well.
