The Legislature of Maine have passed a law, by the provisions of which, a plurality will ! hereafter elect members of Congress and coun ty officers. They have also passed, by the re- i quisite constitutional majority, an amendment of the present Constitution, providing for the election by a plurality, of Governor and mem- ! hers of the State Legislature, both Senate and i House. The former will take effect immedi- - atciy. The latter will be submitted to the pco- I pie at the election in September next, when it j probably will be adopted. f From die Washington Union, Hhl /«s/.] Tac next House ofEcprcseatatives. The federal party have boldly claimed a mn- ; jority in the the next House of Representatives, | and have been busily occupied in dLsignatiug j a Speaker from ther own ranks for the chair. , But the fact is, the battle is not yet lost or won. ; There are several States yet to vote, and some j vacancies in those which have had their elec- : tions, yet to fill; and if these should elect the j two parties in the same proportion in which I hey were represented in the last Congress, we j *hall still have a majority of ten in the House. We cannot expect, however, to see the same ! seats tilled exactly by the same parties. We may lose Some, and we may gain some. It | depends upon the energies of our political | friends whether they will succeed in the de- j Rateable districts, and whether they will lose or | carry the next House of Representatives, ' Wo can scarcely conceive a stronger induce ment to operate upon the democrats lhan at the present time, when all their great measures are at issue—when an administration whom , they have elected has faithfully canned out their principles—when under its auspices the coun try is attaining an unexampled degree of pros perity—and when we are engaged in a foreign war, with which the rights and honor of the country are intimately connected. . , ?r» addition to the majority of ten, which wc are now entitled to possess, wc may claim another seat from Virginia, which we have every probability of carrying. This rests ttpou the following grounds, as stated iu the Lynch burg Republican: i Third Congressional District. —All our in for- \ mation from this district induces us to believe ' that Mr. Tredway is elected, though Mr. ! Flournoy has the return by a majority of otfc vote. It is the unanimous wish of the dem ocracy of the district that Mr. Tredway'should contest the election of Mr. F., as it can scarcely he doubted that he is legally and justly entitled to the seat. It is a burning shame that so strong a democratic district should be misrepresented by' a man who entertains no political principles ! in common with the large majority ofhis con- 1 stituency. It is for the democracy of the dis- ‘ trict to say whether or not they will thus suf fer themselves to beJmisreprcscntcd in the next * (. 'ongr»*ss. They' hax e the power, and have I given their late faithful and efficient represen- i tative (wc have a good reason to believe) a majority of the legal votes cast in the district, i and it behooves them to bestir themselves and 1 see that their rightful voice in the national j legislature is not drowned by a minority re- j present ative. -1 Special Polices.

This invaluable medicine has won its way in putdic favor until it has become the only acknow ledged preparation that can be relied upon for the removal and cure of ail diseases originating in an impure and depraved state of the blood and other fluids. It is not reduced in medicinal value by the addition of sugar, and is prepared by a peculiar process entirely new. The principle which ren ders this root so valuable is wholly preserved. This Sarsaparilla is extensively recommended and proved to be highly beneficial for purifying the blood, and removing unhealthy htintors, eradica ting the effects of mercury from the system, clearing the skin.

Dr. Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cherry, j It was known many years ago that the wild cher ry tree of this climate possessed valuable medicinal 1 * 1 ; properties. Indeed this fact was known to the Aborigines, and a decoction of the leaves or hark of | this tree has ever been regarded by their physi i cians as one of the most effectual remedies in many I diseases. This fact, several years since, arrested the attention of Dr. Wistar, a highly respectable practitioner of Virginia. He investigated with , care the healing properties of the wild cherry— tested its effects when administered alone, and j when in combination with other remedial agents. — He found that its natural virtues might be greatly improved and by combining it with ingredients, whose properties were well proved and generally I recognised, a medicine was produced which con stitutes a remedy of great value in pulmonary af fections, and diseases of the chest and throat—dis eases which are proverbially prevalent in onr cities and large towns, and often prove fatal, swelling the i bills of mortality to a much greater extent than is ; the case with most other, wo had almost said, all other classes of diseases.

Tbe views of hold- I ers and buyers did not harmonize, and, while the former were stiff in their pretensions, the latter evinced no disposition to meet their demands, and the consequence w ife, an almost entire suspension j of business. This State of feeling continued through the three first days of our commercial week—tie sales being light and confined to small parcels until finally prices gave way j a h cent from the i figures given in our last. On Saturday buyers en } tered the market with more spirit, and sales to the ! 1 extent of 3090 bales were effected. These opera- | tions gave an impulse to the market, under the in fluence .•U which it ftfllv recovered the decline a ! bove rcflOredto. and at the close of the day, last I week's quotations were fully re-established. * The i limited transactions since have been at tliose figures. The week closes with a quiet market— holders e- j vincing no disposition to sell until the receipt of la- ! ter foreign advices, now daily expected, and buy- I ers refusing to operate unless holders will abate 1 their pretensions. The total sales of the week sum j up 5300 bales, in daily transactions as follows ; I Wednesday 800, Thursday 500, Friday 300, ISatar- i day 3000, Monday 300 and Tuesday 400 bales. The i purchases have been generally on foreign account —mostly for France. The stock unsold is estimated at 40 a 15,000 bales, which is unusually large for the season, and it is supposed that fully 15,000 bales of this large stock are now fairly on the market.
