THE SEBATOR NAMED.
JOHN L MITCHELL THE COM
ING MAN.
Special Dispatch from ATISCBS Staff Correspond
ent.
HARRISBURG, February 22.—The
name of the uext Senator from Penn
sylvania is John I. Mitchell. Not long
after the adjournment of the joint as
sembly to-day it became known to
those iQside that the factions were
solidifying on Mitchell. There had
been no Concert of action, but individ
ual members of the conference com
mittee had interchanged such opinions
on the subject as to make it understood
that the Congressman from the Six
teenth district would prove acceptable
to both sides. It bung all the after
nocn between Sbiras and Mitchell,
with the latter most talked about.
Beaver and Bayne were no longer men
tioned. Bayne had freely authorized
his friends to take him out of the way
when they could serve any good pur
pose by so doing, and Beaver, who had
left the field in disappointment, had
simply dropped out of people's minds.
They did not eveu require a letter of
withdrawal from the General. When
the conference committee met this
evening it was a general free-and-easy.
The Beaver men, at the request of
Senator Cooper, withdrew for consul
tation before aDy business whatever
was undertakenf. They met in an ad
joining room , aD<? without any refer
ence to General Beaver balloted for a
choice. Anu mber of candidates were
brought op, and George Handy Smith
made a 3tirring sreech in behalf of Ex-
Mayor Henry and voted for him.
Sbiras and Mitchell, however, were
the favorites, and on the third ballot
each had five votes, when Lee Thomp
son threw his vote for Mitchell and de
cided the contest. It was then agreed
that the twelve should ieturn to the
general conference and vote for Mitch
ell unanimously, Meantime the Bayne
members of the committee had retired
to another room for conference. Sen
ator Lawrence there proposed that
they should return and vote solidly on
at least three ballots for Sbiras. This
is objected to by several members, who
wanted a chance to agree. It was
seen that if Lawrence's motion pre
vailed it mig lit throw the conference
into another dead-lock and the sequel
shows that it would have done so, the
other twelve conferees having decided
on Mitchell. It was agreed that the
independent conferees should return
and vote for either Sbiras or Mitchell
as the choice of the other side should
be indicated to them as the roll was
called.
MITCHELL NAMED UNANIMOUSLY.
When the twenty-four finally assem
bled again it was approaching nine
o'clock. A ballot was ordered without
delay. The first name on the list was
that of Billingsley, one of the Beaver
conferees, iie called out in clear,
steady voice the name of John I.
Mitchell. Senator Cooper followed
next with his yote for Mitchell, Thus
WAS the clue completely given. Sen.
ator Davies, of Bradford,an Independ
ent, came next and fell in afiet the
regulars for Mitchell. It went on
thus down the list, Marshall, of Hunt
ingdon, standing at the foot of the
tsble and calling the roll, while Wolfe
sat near recording the vote. Every
mau of the twenty-four voted for
Mitchell, and as the call went on men
held their bieath until the end was
reached and it was found there was no
break. At the moment when Wolf's
name, which was the last on the list,
was called, there was a outburst cf
cheers.
CONSIDERABLE DISCUSSION of a
libra or less heated nature has gone on
iu the party presses as to the candidate
receiving the largest popular vote in
the last election. The Baltimore Sun
went to considerable pains and ex
pense to verify the figures, and gave as
the result a majority of something like
3,000 for Hancock. This was vigorous
ly disputed by several New York jour
nals, noneof them, however, producing
other figures to confirm their denial.
The Cincinnati Enquirer has just fin
ished a more elaborate canvass, calling
upon the election officers iu every
State for the exact returns. From
this it appears that the Hancock ticket
received majority of 8,100 ov.r the
Garfield ticket. The totals are:
Garfield 4.416.554 Scattering 2,122
Hancock 4,424.690 Whole vote 9,160,213
Weaver 313,893 Hancock over
Phelps 1,133 Garfield 8,106
Dow 19,791 Garfield'* min'ty 336,045
It will thus be seen that General
Garfield is a minority President, or, in
other words, if the pec pie chose the
President instead of the States Gener
al Hancock would be inaugurated this
week instead of his competitor. This
is a very interesting point to bear in
mind as a basis of future calculation.
It should remind Republicans of the
virtue of modesty and Democrats of
the reward of cowardice, folly and gen
eral worthlessness in high places.—

Presidential Elections—Sen
ator Wallace's Constitu
tional Amendment Provid
ing for the District Sys
tem.
Senator Wallace delivered an inter
esting speech in the U. S. Senate the
other day in support cf his proposed
constitutional amendment providiuga
new method of electing a President and
Vice President. Th* amendment
provides that each State census is tak
en, into as many electoral districts as
the State, under the apportionment,
has Representatives and Senators;
that in each district an elector shall be
voted for, the person having the great
est number of votes to be elected, no
matter if it is not a majority; tiiat the
final canvass of the district votes shall
be made in each State by the Governor,
Chief J ustice and Secretary of State,
who shall certify the iesult to the Sen
ators of the State and to the President
of the Senate, and this certificate shall
be final and conclusive upon Congress.
Finally the certificates shall be opened
and the votes counted in joint session,
and the persons haviug the largest
number of electoral votes shall be de
clared elected, no matter if they have
not a majority. The amendment has
the great merit of eliminating almost
every source of trouble or dispute re
garding Presidential elections. It
leaves to the States, each for itself, to
provide for a legal method of testing the
legality of tie election of electors
where there is a dispute, and makes
the State's certificate final; so that
there would he under this system no
further talk about Congress rejecting
electoral votes. It gives the people a
greater power over the choice of a
President and makes impossible the
combinations and coalition in close
States, by which these are sometimes
carried nowadays when electors are
chosen on a general ticket. Finally, it
prev-nts any possibility of having the
election thrown in the House of Rep
resentatives because a plurality of the
electoral votes elect. Mr. Wallace
snowed, in his speech, that the meth
od of election districts has had the fa
vor at different times of a huge num
ber of our most eminent public men
and has been oftener proposed than
any other method. It is not probable
that this or any other amendment will
be submitted by the present Congress
to the States, but the subject is sue to
be pressed on the next Congress, and
the speech of Mr. Wallace is a val
uable contribution-on the exploration
of the subject.— lSunbury Democrat.
WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, D. C., Feb. 26, 'Bl.
The House of Representatives does
not seem to know thai it has only four
more working days. Ordinarily when
busiuess is so far behind as now, night
sessions are resorted to with some suc
cess, but every effort to utilize theui
during this session has been a dismal
failure. That of Thursday night was
a fair sample. Nothiug was done but
engender bad feeling among the meui
bers„aud so fatigue them that an at
tempt to work on Friday was simply a
farce. The Republicans were in fault.
They have an absurd idea that all the
Northern States have rapidly increas
ed in population during the last ten
years, aad all the Southern States de
creased, and they want a re-apportion
ment which will be based on that idea.
Brought to the test of actual figures
collec ted by Radical officials, and em
biaced by the census returns, their
petition is of course absurd; but they
have so long believed the result would
be that way, that they cannot yet re
alize the facts. So they refuse to ac
cept the very fair re-apportionment
bill of the Democratic Committee, and
being unable to get one of their own,
fillibuster to prevent my action on the
subject. lam very glad to say that
able Republicans like Hawley, of Con
necticut, *nd Frye, of Maine fully en
dorse the Democratic bill, and have
constantly tried t< prevent their asso
ciates from flllibustering. The whole
subject is now in the ban Ja of a com
mittee of Ave Democrats and five Re
publicans, named at the suggestion of
Mr. How ley, who are endeavoring to
agree upon a bill both parties will ac
cept. The posiliou of this bill is such
as to prevent action on other measures
of importance, and possibly some of
the appropriation bills will fail because
of it. There is a general belief, how
ever, that the Republicans will extin
guish Conger, the author of the mis
chief, and consent that business shall
go on.
This is the more likely because a
most powetful lobby is here in the in
terest of the National Ranks, seeking
to secure the passage of the bill taking
the to off deposits. While this is not
distinctly a Republican measure, the
lobby is Republican aud will have the
iuflueuce with obstructionist Conger.
If, however, that hardened person shall
follow the bent of his bad disposition,
not only this, but other bills of impor
tance will fail, and an extra sessiou be
unavoidable.
Avery lively debate yesterday on
the proposition to appropiiate $200,000
for coaling stations on the Isthmus of
Panama brought out the fact that the
Private Secretary of Mr. Hayes, acting
as paid attorney for a Land Company
on the Isthmus, had been before a
House Committee urging the appro
priation. Evidently the company ex
pected to make money out of it, but
the appropriation seems all the same to
be a proper one. We ought to do some
thing more than pass empty resolu
tions to assert our understanding of
our rights on the Isthmus.
CARROLL.
Senator Matthew B. Carpenter, of
Wisconsin, died at his residence in
Washington, Friday morning the 24th,
ult. He was one of the ablest men in
the seuate and his death is a great loss
to the Republican party. Mr. Carpen
ter's successor can not be chosen be
fore the Bth inst., which will probably
leave the organization of the Seuate in
the hands of the Democrats, an event
upon which the country has great
reason to congratulate itself.
