A Kemfdy for Constitutional Defect. Thh fsot that Audr--w Johusnn had so far Violated bid profound rVHrenoe) for the Con stitution as It wan bawled down to u by the founder of th Rxpririlio, as to racomoawnd Wholesale? revision of boojh of its vital fea ture", taken in eonueotion with the rare ooiir. tesj and inoffrnwive eartiHttn'8s whioh cha racterise hla menKage to Cmigrena on the Btib Jeot, entitles bis proposition to a candid aul respeotful conaidera'iou. Mr. Jhusou is not the first Pr"ttiit prote-sing an iutense ad miration for "the Couxtitution at it is," who has, notwithtttauriioK this admiration, leen anxi-ua to modify it in Home essential respects. Andrew Jirksoo before him was piniilarly anxious to mxlify the fun cl ni-ntal law on the 6ntjr,t of the elnution of Our Chief Magistrate, aud on his recommenda tion and arguuieuts Mr. Johnson has lirgly drawn. But Preiid-nt Jaokou's anxiety to deprive the Uoue of Representativi-s of the privilege of di-oidiug a I'rewidnu'iil ontest whioh tailed of a swttlniuHtit at the hands of the people was the result of the hitter dis appointment whioh he sutl-irel in 1321, when Henry Clay's paramouut iutlnnoe in the House m-de John Qciiucy Adams President, And is there'ore entitled to much less weight than th argauieuts of his euouessor, Mr. Johnson fully ielizH the fact that the Electoral ColVge is an agHuny which teu is to prevent, rather thau to ascertain and express the will of a majority of the p"ople. Hitherto it bas woiked as well as any other system would have done, for w th the &tug)e exception Of Jackson's defeat by th House, in 1321, When he received the largest support both from the people aud the Electoral College, every President duly declared elected hti hi & large plurality of a'.l the votes cast by the people, although iu the cases of Polk in 1841, Taylor in 1843, Uuchauau iu lb56, aud Lin coln in I860, the successful candiiates did not receive on the popu ar vote a clear majority over all their diif-ieut competitors, as was showu in the valuable tables which we recently published. Bat Mr. J.ibua u's pro posed ameudiueut fails to etrike at the root of the difficulty. The divxiou of the S ates iuto Electoral Districts will not prevent, unlr certain contingencies, the election of a mi nority President. Iu cases where there are three or more caudidates iu the field, Mr. Johnson propones tlritt the oue receiving the greatest minjber of votes iu a rerttin Kleotoral I?iBtriot "shall lie holdeu to have reo-ived oue Tote." In this way it would still be possible for one candidate to cany a clear majority Of all the Electoral Di-tricts, aud yet to receive a mete minority of the entire vote. "When there are but two opposing candidates it might frequently bapptiu that oue would oarry a bare majority of the E ectoral Dis tricts by a Lire umjurity of the votes cast; While his opponent might receive au over Whelming vote in the remaiuing District, and a large majority of all the votes oast. Such a result might ensue if all the Districts were equal or nearly equal in pomt of votiug popu lation; much more frequeutly might it happen under a eyt-tem by which the State of Dela ware wonld be divided iuto three Districts, with about six thousand voters iu each, while the average voting population of the twenty six districts of the S.ate of Pennsylvania would be over twenty-three thousand. Th true remedy for the evils of the Electo ral College system id to do awty entirely with the gross inequali'y of the Slates in the ohoic Of a Chief Magistrate, aud to appeal directly to the people of the Union at large. Tue ioequttity of representation in the Electoral C llege, whioh Mr. J ibuson, being au old fashioued S .ales" rights Democrat, proposes to retaiu, id alto gether a piece of iujustioe wh'oh should have been swept away by th war for the Uuiou, along with the other ditigerous heresies of the States-rights doctrines, tisoessiou aul re Jjwllion were btsed upou these heresies, and were essayed iu a vain eud-ta-vor to uphold them agaiust the spirit of the age aud thM geuius of our republic tu institutious. Wuile we are ab nt the task of Xemoielliug the framework of our Government, the ridioulous anomaly or tlotliiug 0000 voters nthe State of Del i ware with a power in ths Choice ot our Chief Magistrate equal to that exercised by 23 OuO voters in the contiguous State of Penury Ivauia should no longer be per mitted to reiiiaiu. It is inhereutly uojust, nndemooia'ic, aud nnreanouable, and the very people who should be most eager to Btrip tbem-elves of this nnequal Bhare of power vhoutd be the voters of Delaware and other S ates wiiiuh have a small repre sentation iu the H"use of Representatives. By placiDg a voter in Delaware ou a perfect equal ity with a voter in Penuslvauia, aud then appealing to the peoj Ht larg-, aud not to those dangerous aud 8,rit-b.g. uiug heresies, the sovereign ttaes, to druide between the asplrauts fur the highest honors of the nation, our institutions will lie rendered truly Demo cratic, in practice as well as iu theory. Mr. Johnson furthermore deeuu it iu'xpe dient to lodpe iu the House of Representatives the Settlement of a Pret-ideuMal contest which the people fail to decide, aud by way of remedy for this imaginary evil he proposes the h tiding fa fctcond election to determine the choice of (be people between the two candidates re ceiving the vote of the greatest number of Kleotoral District, failing in which the luo oessful oandidate shall be the one "who shall have received the greatest number of votes in the greatest number of States" another out oropping of the States-rights heresy. The members of the House of Representatives are the direct representatives of the people of the United States, and that body is the most fitting one to decide a contest in which the people are so divided auioi g themselves as to be usable to oast a clear majoiity in favor of any one candidate. But when a Precedential election is referred to the House for settlement, each member of that body should exercise an equal voice, aui not each State, as under the present system Iu that way the fairest aud fullest expression ot the popular will could be ascertained. Oue njoie point in this counectiou re malm to be noticed, and that is Mr. Johnson's pro position to place the Presideutial eu ioesiioa in the Cabinet, and net in the presiding offi tors of the two Houses of Congress and the Jus tices of the Supreme Court. ITn reootnmeu dation of this change was uudoub'edly prompted by the narrow escape male by vlr. Wade iroui the temporary oooupaucy of the White House. Hid argumeutd iu sup port of the change are forcible, aud entitled to Fouie weight, but in recom mending such a constitutional provisi u he surely forgets that the m-tmbsrs of the Cabiuet are mere creatures of legislation, aud uuder their present BpeciQj titles unknown to the Constitution itself. It would uu 1 tubteily be well to have the question settled by au iirepealahle fundamental law; but, if the heads of the different departments are to be mvl-i the constitutional successors of the Preideut aiid Vice-President, in ease of a vacancy, they mutt first be created by virtue of au express provision of the Constitution, reuleriug a til another amendment of that instrument au imperative necessity. The Nomination for District Attorney It would be a serious misfortuue if the Itip'tb lnan Convention ab ut to assemble to nomi nate a new candidate for Dintriat Attorney f-Loulrt fad to make the best possible use of the opportunity it wilieujov, not in -rely of recti fying an error, but of a I ling n w streng h to the Republican ticket, aud turning the Hank of the Democracy by a first-clas i ouiiaa'iou. If it has the wisdom to rise above m-re petty pMSonal considerations, aud to select a candi date who uuites undoubted ability an 1 bouesty with popularity, it will deserve the thvikd of the party, aud render an esseutial servi te to the citv, the Slate aul the nation. The least that the public expeot from the Convention is an uuojeotiouable nomi nee, but if it has sufuneut sagacity to choose one wh'm the people will delight to honor, its labors will prove iu ths hig'm-t de gree creditable and use'ul. We hope the C n. vention will, as far as possible, avoid the com mon error of haviug a candidate forced u jo u its suffrages by clamorous persistency. Narly nine nominations out of ten are mvie for n apparent reattou ex ie,. t, that the nominee an I his friends have outitue all rivals iu balger ing, bribing, or cajoliug delegates. We trust the coming caudidate for District Attorney will owe his Belection to higher aud more appro priate ibflueni es, and that he will be chosen rather becanse the party needs him, thau be cause he clamors for the nomination. The Distribution of Anns in the South ern Slut-B. Tub Senate yesterday passed a bill providing for the reduction of the United States army to 30,000 men. One of its sections authorizes the Secretary of War to issue Springfield rill-d niut-kets aud accoutrements to the Governor ot each Stale, not exceeding oue thousaud for each Congressional district, which was subse quently atneud'd to add two thousand musket to the number furnished each State. Tuis provision gave rise to an animated debate, as the Democracy bitterly opposed it. It appears that the Government iu distributing a portion of its surplus arms, id ouly following past precedents, aud as it possesses nearly a million and a half of rill id munkets ani car bines it can well afford to spare a few hundred thousand for the use of the militia of the country. Bat it was charged aud admittei that the distribution of these arms in the South has a special tiguiQcanoe. The Rebels Btill possess a large portiou of the arms they used during the Rebellion, while the new loyal Slate governments are totally destitute of niut-kets and munitions of war. As the threat id constantly made in various shapes that the t constructed governments are to be overthrown by revolutionary measures, it id just and proper that they should be protected, not merely by the small body of tioops now in the S mth, whose number will rapidly dim'uish uuder the new bill providing for a reduction of the army, but by their own taithtul adherents. Ad Pi auk Blair, the Democratic candidate for the Vioe-Preaideucy. only gave ntterau. e to the geueral desire of the Southern Relel Democracy when he de clared that they should overturn at all I azards the reconstruction po'icy of Congress as the Rebel leaders frequeutly reiterate the threat that the iutaut the troops are withdrawn they" will regain power in the South by the re-establishuieut of the reign 0 ' terror, and as they repeatedly show that they are admirably qualitl d to play the part o' Thngs,.orto inaugurate wholesale uiasstcres, it is well for these boasting remnauts of chivalry to be made to understand toat blows can be given as well as taken, anl that, as the army which now restraiud their murderous proclivities id withdrawn, a loyal organized militia will take its place to enforce the will of the nation aud to give Rebelliou ltd quietus.

SOMEHOWY-OK-OTIIEU Makes a practice of giving half of his marriage fees to his wife. Tbis generally works well, aud the amiable aad accomplished lad is very fond of it. lint, on a recent ocoaaion, the learned cler gyman was bothered about making the divi Bion. A thonghtful bridegroom presented him with a magnificent salt of ROCKHILL & WILSON'S CLOTHES; coat, vest, and pants. Tbe wife claimed her half. But-how should the lot be divided f Neither coat nor vest Ot the body, and as to her wearing the pacta. Ioodp, it wouldn't do at all. So the clergyman had to keep the whole fee himself; and he said that he never had a better fee In his life; and that he wished that in future, wbeu folks name lo get married, they wonld bring the fee in like manner, from ROCKHILL & WILSON'S. Gentlemen who intend to get married, also tbote who are already married, also young men and boja who won't get married for seme time to come, together with all other aorta aud conditions, are invited to call and eee the tre mendous stork of elegant summer raiment, now rapidly moving olT from the GREAT BHOAN CLOTHING PALL OF ROCKHILL & WILSON, Nos. 03 and C05 CUESMJT STKEET 4 11 IP PHILADELPHIA. 7RAHK CRANELLO TAILOR, No. 921 C1IESNUT STREET, (PKNN MUTUAL BUILDINGS), HAVING SECURED TIIE SERVICES OF THE FOLLOWING EMINENT ARTISTS, JOSEPH TACKEY, on Coats, EKJiEST L.
