The population divided among titty Senators would give an average population to each Senator of 21,429. But to the Ihirty-two -Conservative Senatorial Districts the Leg islature allotted an average of 20,899 Short to each Democratic Senator 530 Now, to each Republican Senato rial District this same Legisla ture allotted a population of 22,371 Proper average, 21,429 An excess over proper average, a population to each Republscan Senator, of 942 Taking the average population al lotted to Republican senatorial Districts 22,371 and abstracting therefrom the av erage populations in tne con servative Districts, . - 20,899 we have each Republican Sena tor representing a population of 1,472 more than the Legislature has permitted its Conservative Sen ators la represent This we say is the very best light the matter can be placed in.

Tho Tribune on the Death ot Mr. Greeley. New York. Nov. 30 The Tribune says: The melancholy death of the Editor and founder of The Tribune, though for a few days it had been expected by his family and intimate friends, falls upon us with all the shock of a sudden ca lamity. He had reached, indeed, a ripe old age, but time had not laid its withering touch upon him. His splen did constitution easily bore the strain of enormous labor. His mind was as fresh and as strong and as suggestive as in the prime of life. His generous im pulses were unchillod by disheartening experiences ' through the campaign which has just closed. His physical vigor, his tact, his intellectual activity, surprised even those who knew him best, and seemed to promise many years of usefulness. " It is certain that no history in our Nation's life can bo written in which Horace Greeley shall not be a conspic uous figure ; but the noblest i career in his eyes is that which is given up to others' wants. The successful life was that which was worn out in conflict with wrong and woo. The only ambition worth following was the ambition to al leviate human misery, and leave the world a little better than he found it. That he had done this was the consola tion that brightened his last days) and assured him that he had not lived in vain. "It is our loss loguehis virtues, although for several months we have missed the inspiration of his presence, and the guidance of his wise counsel. His spirit has never ceas ed to animate those chosen to continue his works, and the close bond of sympa thy between the chief and his assistants has never been broken. . " We leave his praises to the poor whom he succored ; to the lowly whom - . . . f I X . 1 - ne lilted up; tome siave wno&e uata. he saved from the lashxto the oppress ed whose wrongs he made his own." The Herald, in an editorial on Mr. Greeley, says: He has in a mistaken aspiratidb for a higher field of usefulness and power and glory, than journalism, fallen -a sacrifice to his political ambition. He had failed to appreciate the command ing position which he had secured as .the leading. American Journalist, and leaving it to pursue the ignis fatuus of the Presidency, he dropped the sub stance for the shadow of a great distinc tion, otherwise, the history and the en during reward of Mr, Greeley's indus trious and useful career, are full of encouragements to ouryoung men, who without capital, pcrs .nal influence or powerful friends, have the battle of life before them."
