7,i Heurj A. Parens, Jr., Editor. THURSDAY, NOV. BOTH.. 1876. Prora the Pittsburgh Dispatch. The Consrclonul fuunf. If tho people of the United Slates do not understand by this tinu- all the complex machinery of Electoral Col- legea, and t7l mode In whkih the votes of the erectOft of thoN dllforent Rtatea shall b Wanted In Coiiirrexii on the second "Wednesday nf February next, It is not because there ha not been a large amount of writing upon the subject. We cannot open a lead ing exchange from any purl of the country without finding hi it from one to live or six columns on Electoral Colleges and the counting of the vote in the presence of the two Homes of Congress. . The Hon. Clarkson N. Totter, of New York, has seen fit to make a large contribution to the electoral llterature'of the times, and to tell the people and Congress exactly .what must be done when the matter of opening and counting the votes for President and Vice President comes before the Senate and House of Repre sentatives. In the long and labored letter which Mr. Potter has published lu a New York paper In regard to the duty and province of Congress in counting the electoral vote, there is not anything new, or peculiarly strik ing. ' It contains a resume of the pro ceedings of Congress in such cases al most from the commencement of the government till the present time, and if. may be valuable to some as a letter of reference. Rut the document of the New York lawyer derives Us chief 1m- , portance from the fact that it is sup posed to have been dictated by Gov ernor Tllden, and outlines the course which will be pursued when the votes for President and Vice Prosl dent shall come to be counted by Congress. Some time since, it was hinted that the House of Representatives would not attend on the day appointed by law for counting the vote, but Mr. Potter speaks authoritatively upon this subject, aud seems either to have complete control of the Democratic members of that body or to have con suited each one as to what ho would do on the second Wednesday of Feb ruary. "The House of Representa tives,'' says he, "will not refuse to at tend to fcthe counting of the electorul vote. It will permit the countiug of every vote which it may judge lawful to be counted; and no vote can be law fully counted without its concurrence or against its judgment and direc tion." This is a very strong assertion, and a plain declaration that the House of Representatives, which has a large Democratic majority, shall rule and do as it sees fit in the matter of count ing or rejecting the vote of a State. If the vote shall be counted according to the direction of the Democrats of the House, then the person who shall have a majority of the electors ap pointed by the several States shall be President, and the Democratic party, r.s such, shall recognize him as the Chief Magistrate of the nation. This is a plain declaration that the votes must be counted as the Democrats shall direct, else they will not recognize the person as President of the United States who may have a majority of the votes of the electors appointed and duly certified by the proper uuthori- ties of tho respective States. If the language of Mr. Potter means any thing it means this, nothing more nothing less. That we may not do him any injustice we quote his exact words: "Whomever, by tho vote so counted, Khali appear to have the ma jority of all the electors appointed will be President, and will be accepted by the Democratic party as such; and whomever, if no President be so chosen, the popular branch of the government shall then, in duo form, choose to bo President, will be so ac eepted by them; and it will be those who may sec fit to resist the executive, thus lawfully elected, who will be de fying the law." The constitution of the United States says: "the President of the Sen ate shall, In the presence of the Senate and House of Representatives, open nil the certificates and the votes shall then bo counted," no matter whether' Republicans or Democrats may object. The languaro of tho constitution is mandatory, and confers no discretion' ary power in the matter of counting the vote upon any person; all the certificates must be opened by the President of the Senate and be by him counted, or' else by whoniesoever he may appoint. But Mr. Potter as aumes that votes which the Democrats may consider fraudulent and object to shall not bo counted, boldly declares that the House of Representatives shall decide the whole matter, as it alone has judicial power in tho case. Now very good Democratic authority asserts that tho counting of the vote for President in tho presence of tho Senate and House of Representatives is purely a ministerial and not a judi cial act. We suppose tlvat no person will call in question the soundness of the New York jSW Democracy, and it evi dently does not agree with the views advanced by Mr. Potter. It is very sure there is no authority or power which can object to the counting of the vote of any State which may be tent, within the time prescribed by law and duly certified, to the Presi dent of the Senate. The appoint ment of Eleotoral Colleges la commit ted entirely to the States, and their certificate, when duly certified by ihe Ktate authorities, "become by iorce of tbe constitution the tola and mi WW WW Mil exclusive legal evldenco' that those States cost their votes for certain can didates. . The Sun adds: "It cannot bo, therefore, that the Authority Ofto reilde any whore to try any qneitlon, or to find any fact, that Is to warrant the two Houses in rejecting the votes of any Electoral College of whose authority to give those votes the State through I In constituted authorities. tins legally Informed Congre, All suoh (UCiaion and all such flu-ts It belongs to the pro)HT authorities of each Stiite to try and tltrmlne, before the portions supposed to be rlinsnn electors aro assembled to give their votes. Any attempt by the two House or either of them, to go behind the certificates and to determine tho right of tho electors to give Mil votes which they havo cortlflod, when the Htnta has decided that right by its competent authorities, will lend to conclu sions In which the people of this country will not acquiesce." There Is plainly a wide difference of opinion between Mr. Totter and the Sun In regard to the power and authority which the two Houses of Congress can exercise in counting the vote for President and Vice President. According to the latter, Congress can not go behind the certified vote of any State, but, according to the former the House of Representatives can do as It pleases In the matter. We are certain there Is no such power, as Potter claims there Is, vested In either branch of Congress; if there were it would be a dangerous thing for the country. After all the writing we have had on the subject neither Republicans nor Democrats are agreed among them selves as to the power possessed by Congress in counting the Presidential vote. The Great Question. THE POWKR OF CONGRESS TO REGU LAR!:, SITKRVISK AND DICTATE Till: ELECTION OFTHE CHIEF MAGISTRATE. Cincinnati, November 24. The Commercial editorially says: "Before committing themselves utterly to the doctrine that the Congress of the United States has power to regulate, supervise and dictate the election of a President, the Democratic leaders should take a look at the whole situa tion. General Ewing proposes In case the electoral vote of Louisiana is re turned for Hayes, to send out an in vestlgatlng committee and take test! mony, with the view of contenting that vote in Congress. Then suppose the Senate sends out a commltteee to Kentucky to look into the informa tion of the so called Presidential election In that State. Louisiana has the same rights in the Union that Kentucky enjoys. Her State govern ment is as legal as that of Kentucky Her methods of determining how her electoral vote is to be cast are no more to be called into question than those of Kentucky. One State is as sovereign as another. If one House of Congress has a right to go behind the record of the vote of one State another House of Congress has a right to go behind the vote of the record of another State. The House might find that Louisiana is infested by dishonest men, who are suspected of dealing unfairly with the people. The Senate may find that though the local affairs of Kentucky are exceptionally well managed, the solemn regulations made by the Con stltution for electing a President arc utterly disregarded in that State. If Louisiana can be pitched out why not Kentucky or any other State? Let us not depart from the plain path marked out by the Constitution." blue Jouns Williams is 08, and his wife (0 years of ago The city tax in Philadelphia this year is to be ou on toe ?1UU.

It is noticed as singular fact that the vote for Tilden in New York city in the late elec lion was within eight of what was counted for lloffuiau as Governor in 1818. In 1863 the vote was 112,622. aud 00 the 7th Inst, it was 112,630, a gaia of one per annum. The Democrats Check In Congress. In the present House of Representatives the Democrats have a trustworthy majority of at least 73 votes. The majority they held during one lono: session, in whioh they claimed that they had won the confi dence of the people, and since the recent election they are continually boasting of tneir "popular majority." Hut judging by the complexion of the next Congress, the degree of popular eonfidence in the Democratic party is not suoh as to justify muoh, boasting. Their great majority is eut down till it cannot exoeed a round dozen, and may be less. Indeed, so close was Ihe vote in some of the districts now conceded to them that it was for some time doubtful if there wae a Democratic mnjorily in the House at an. Their first losses were In the October eleotions when they lost 4 in Indiana and 6 In Ohio. These were fol lowed In November by the loss of 2 in Cali fornia, 1 In Florida, 0 in Illinois, I In Iowa, 1 in Kansas, 4 in Massachusetts, i in Michigan, 4 In Missouri, 1 In New Jersey, in Oregon, 7 in Pennsylvania, and 1 in Tennessee. These results would be accepted by any party not infatuated with pride and obeli- racy as a stinging rebuke. The country could not readily tell a party In a more con vincing fashion that they had not met its ex pectations than by reduoinga majority such as the Democrats have in the current Con gress, to the pitiful margin which it will have in the next one. Nothing could bear more directly on the judgement of tho peo- f ile regarding the conduct of the majority ast session than this remarkable change in Its proportions. New York Times. A New Orleans correspondent writes: Of the fifty-seven parishes In the State forty have been officially heard from. They show a Republican majority of from seven to eight thousand. There will be contests in regard to at least twelve and perhaps twenty parishes, but they will not come up until! the districts In which there is no contests havo been tils posed of. This is in accordance with the State election laws. The count of the uncontested parishes will be fin ished in about three days, and then the disputed ones will be considered. It is thought that they can be gone through with in seven days, and that by tho first of Deceniber an official announcement of the vote for Presi dent ond Vice President can be made.
