The electoral vote cast In the several 'states nn Wednesday font up i!03 for Samuel Ji Tildcn. The electors of Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, Indiana, Kentucky, -Missouri, Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mis sissippi, Arkansas, Loulslani and Texas,anil one elector of each of the states of Vermont nnd Oregon, casting 203 votes, voted for Bamuel J. Tilden. In both Vermont and Oregon, one Ho publican elector was ineligible by reason oi holding the office of postmaster. Tho Con stitution of tho United States expressly de clares that no person holding nn office of frust or profit under the United States shall be appointed an elector. There seems to be a difference of Opinion ns to whether a va cancy exists undersuch circuimtanccs.whlcli can be fdlcd. Gov. Grovor of Oregon, holds that there is no vacancy and gives the grounds of his action in refusing the certifi cate of election to the Republican post-master and giving it to the Democratic elector htTing the klghcst number of votes. After reciting tho facts of the case he say : It was ruled, in the case, that where the objection tu an applicant's right to receive a certificate rests upou the ground that a con stitutional prohibition is interposed, tlie Gov ernor, acting under oath to support the con stitution bound to entertain and determine tho question ; not only that, but is to deter mine iu sucli a way as to enforce- tho con stitutional mandate to tho extent of his exe cutive power. It was a'so held that the law and the fact being well known, the votes cast for tho ineligible, candidate cannot be to n'.ed for any other purpose and tho eligible candidate having the next highest number of votes was duly elected. This ruling win b.ned upon standard authorities, such us dulling and Grant ; the decisions of many courts, like the Supreme Court and the Court ol Appeals of New York; the latter uniform practice in the United States Home of Rep resentatives, and the great weight of Kng Unh authorities, both parliamentary and judicial. The law of Oregon providing for filling va cancies inltbo Electoral Colleges recognizes a vacancy only in cases where there has been an incumbent and such incumbent has died, refused to nct,neglected to attend or is other wise absent. In this cue there was no in cumbent, unless tho next highest candidate should take the position, and there was no vacancy which could be filled by tho other members of the Electoral College. Tho D'ext highest candidate eligible under the constitution of the United States was there fore, certified ta be duly elected. This action on tho part of Governor G rov er, places the Republicans in an absurd po sition. They and their organs have been contending that Congress has no right to throw out the votes of States where certifi cates of election have been given by tho proper authority. If this rule is observed then the one Democratic elector from Ore gon having the Goverxor's certificate is a legal elector and his vote elects Tilden. If, on the contrary,the Republicans recede from their own rule and throw out the Oregon elector, the door is open and the votes of Louisiana, South Carolina and Florida will go out too and Tilden will be elected. What is goo.! law for the Southern States mentioned ought to be goo law for Oregon. It's a bad lookout for the Republicans and the beauty of the sit uation lies In the fact that the Republicans have gotten themselves into it. The organ9, however, with unblushing effrontery are now engaged in a series of highly moral pro testations against fraud and chicanery. If there is anything on earth that can make tie average Republican organ grinder shamed of hinitelf it hasn't been discov ered. ORAM'S STUMP SPKKCII. The P resident, on Sunday, had a long con venation with a representative of tho Associ ated Press in which he aiied his views of po litical affairs at much leugth. Grant's opin ions aro thoM! of tho carpet-baggers and he talks tho usual stuff about Hayes having car ried all the loyal ttates but four, while Tilden carried all but three of tliote lately in rebel lion. The three ho thinks Tilden didn't curry aro Florida, South Caiolina and Louisiana all of which he did cany. Wretched twaddle of course but it ia the best that can lie ex pected from meli a 'ourcc. The President advised the Democrats not to impeach him "for it might bring out evidence which they would not liko to tec spicnd upon the rec ords.' p.Tliis little threat to the Houso will not Litimidato tlicin niucli ae fancy. Hu states that ho never intended General Ruger to place troops in tho fclato House in South Carolina, but that Ruger so understood the ouler. Ihoso may believe this who will. We don't believe u woid of it. Ruger got his oiders straight enough and acted on them, Grant said that thcio were six or eight hundred troops in Wahingtoii, and if there should be'ahy necessity for moro ho would ol der them theie. "We should have peace if wo had to light for it.' He made allusion to letter received by him threatening a.s.-a.ssiua- tion. Altogether tho conversation was a very Wily and partisan one,and;utterly unworthy of a man holding the high office of Chief Mag' istrato of tho Nation. His recent Message and this haranguu are about on n par. United States Senator F. J. Robertson, of South Carolina has refused to become a can didate for re-election before the general as sembly composed of the Senate and illegal Republican House. Mr. Robertson, who is a Repiibllcan, writes a vigorous and manly letter On the subject iu which he says that us "Rhus been decided by our court of last re sort that the body claiming to participate In that election as the houso of representatives is not a constitutional and a legal body, nnd that it can perform no act that can bo re cognized by the courts ' ho is "constrained to withhold his name as a candidate before it," Here's another nut for the Republicans to crack. The Florida Reluming Hoard havo finished tliir llttlo Job of counting iu tho Republican Stafo officers by majorities ranging ti mi -158 to 301. Two Republican Convressui 'ii were also counted iu, and will doubtless tuku their teats in LongrcFH alter they get them. The Hoard labor under tho slight difficulty of Leiug in' contempt of Court, Judgo While of the U. H. Ciicuit Court having issued an order restraining them, but that they will havo to nettlo themselves. Perhaps they will. Nobody hears It called "the solid South' now. Returning boards have cracked if they tare net broken it SOUTH CAROLINA'S SHAVE. Chamberlain, tho Republican defeated can didata for Governor took tho oath of ofiieo be fore a Prolato Judge on Thursday of lnt week. This was illegal, as tlio law requires tho oath to lie administered by ono of tho Justices of the Supremo Court. It was pro tended that n bill had Just been passed repeal ing tins law, but it really only pasrod tho (louse and not tho Senate and is consequent ly of no weight. Chamberlain niado a pcech aeeepting tho office, which is not wottli print ing in full. Ho fa id among other things that "he had mourned over previous public abus es Ho had labored for honesty; but he .tood appalled at tho recent crimes ngaitit 1'ieedoiii and good government lceentiy wit nessed here." If ho meant by this the action of tlio Returning lwnnl and tho bogus Legis lature, ho might well haVo been "appalled" but ho didn't mean any such plain fact, lie intended to stigmatise ns "criinos'Jthocnbrts of the decent citizens of the State to fccuro an honest government nnd kick ratals out. He denounced tho conduct of tho Democrat io campaign as a brutal outrage, depending on fraud, proscription, intimidation Mid iiiut der. Hampton had said ho not only held tho peace of tho State, but his, (Chamberlain's) life in his hand. This ho did not dobut. His life could bo easily taken, but nothing could nbato his hatred and opposition to the enslave ment of the people of South Carolina. All other considerations niu.-t yield to duty,to ro fist the final success of that outrage attempted by tho Democrats. This called from Governor Hampton the i'ollowing hharp card : Tlio following paragraph ntmcant in an ad dress of I). II, Chamberlain delivered in the capitol to-day ! "Tho gentleman who was my opponent for this office in tho lato election has recently declared, as I am credibly inform ed, that ho holds not only tho ikmco of this city and Stato.but uiy life in his hand. I do not doubt tho truih of this statement. Neith er tho publio peace nor tho life nf any man who now opposes thei consummation of this policy of fraud nnd violence is raft from tho assaults of those who have enforced that poli cy." I nronouncc this statement wfamouslv false. I. bv mv unwearied exertions, havo endeav ored to preservo the peace of this State, and I havo thus contributed to shield from nopu ular indignation one who has proved himself disgrace to Ins rant and a traitor to his trust. U is conscience may make lutn trcm- but neither I nor tho men with whom I act countenance tho hand of the assassin. USignedJ, Wade Hampton. Thoso who have followed tho courso of events during tho troubles in the State, know how true are the statements contained in this card. The A'athn, "with the utmost respect," makes this appeal to Governor Hayes: "You aro an honest man, in whosa lite not even the fierce light of a Presidential campaign has revealed a speck of reproach. From a tribunal, therefore, liko tho Louisiana Re turning Hoard, composed exclusively of your frieuds and partizans, whose judicial integ rity and capacity havo been already success fully impeached j whic'i refuses to obey tho direction of the law and give the opposite party even ono place on its bench; which deliberates in secret, andgivcano reasous for its decisions; which sees glaring frauds ex posed in its presence without manifesting either surprise or displeasure, and which notoriously enjoys not one iota of confidence in any part of the Union from such a tri bunal you would not accept tho award of even $100 neainst the claim of tho humblest man in America, would you?

Are you now prepared to accept at its hands nn office which equals nny crown in dignity and surpasses most crowns in power ad responsibility, which no man has hitherto held with a stain of suspicion resting on his title? Can you encounter the terrible ordeal of holding such a position for four years in the fuco ot the belief of full half the voters that you have obtained it through judicial fraud and chicane? Would not your so holding it be a new nnd great misfortune to the country, and a source of unending shame and rcpentanco to yourself? Should you allow eager and unscrupulous politicians to override yourown nobler judg ment and thrust it upon you? Finally do you suppose that in an otlico so won, and needing so much popular respect, if not popular support, to give it either dignity or authority, you could exert any appreciable inliuence in behalf of any uf the causes which you and all good men have at heart 7 Passages from a New Farce Now In Courso of Itclicarsal.

Tho following is furnished by Hon. Abrani S. Hewitt, ad dressed to tlio Washington ngent of the as sociated press : In yesterday's papers I find a dispatch from you r'gardlng n conversa tion with President Giant in referenco to tlio unfortunate state of affairs in South Carolina nud my Interviews with him Iu re ferenco thereto, feo far ns South Carolina was concerned the Piesident enjoined no confidence, but expressly stated that I was at liberty to communicate his views to tho public. Ho did enjoin confidence In regard to what he said of Louisiana affairs, nnd thnt confidence I havo respected, although, as I havo already stntcd to him, I believed the publication of tho statement would do much to tranqiiilizc tho public mind. In regard to South Carolina the President slated that;in his judgment not less than sixty three members, having certificates from tho secretary of state, wcro eligible to organize the house and transact business. As this view accorded with my own, nnd ns no con fidence wnt enjoined, I telegraphed It In tho following language : "A. C. llastell, Chairman. Chnrlcthn, S. Ct I am ablo to say that neither house will be recognized by tho President until it gets sixty-three members holding certificates from the returning board. (Signed) A ti it am S. Hewitt. ' My object in sending this dispatch was that I thought it would tend to allay excite ment in South Carolina nnd prevent n col lision between the people and the troops, of which wo were very apprehensive. On the 6th of December I received :i reply, which induced mo to send tho following telegrams to tho President : 7b Me J'retident .' I have received a re liable telegram from Columbia stating that the sixty-third member holding a certificate from the secretary of state has been sworn into tho houso presided over by Speaker Wallaoe, which is therefore orgauized m ac cordance with tho requirements ot the law, as stated by you." To the President: I have just received n Into dispatch saying that tho Supreme Court of Sutli Carolina has proiiouncud its judgment and declared tho houo presided over by W. N. Wallace to be tho legally constituted house of represeutatives,and that Mackey is u private person, not speaker or in any respect an officer of the legislative body." On the evening of the same day, Ssi ator Randolph suggested that he nud I should call upon tho President and ask him wheth- under tho circumstances he could not see his way cl nr to order the with Jnw nl af the United States troops from Columbia and rccoguize tho house ot representatives so constituted with sixty-three members. The President granted in an interview, which began by my raying that I hnd sent him two telegrams from the house in reference to South Carolina affairs. Tho President at once replied that ho had received them and that very late on the preceding cven- ng ho had received a telegram from Colum bia saying that I had informed parties there that tho President would recognize as tho legal nous that body which should have C3 members with certificates fro m the sec retary of Btatc. Tho President said that he had replied that he did not bclievo I had said ho had done bo and that at any rate it was not true. I replied that I had not sent any telegram to that effect, but had sent one as nearly as I could rccollcot as follows : "I am able to say that tho President will not recognize any houso that docs not contain sixty three mombers with original certificates from the returning board." Tho President replied: "That is correct, I did say so. That was my private opinion but I did not say that 1 would recognize a hoase that had 03 members." I replied : "That is true, but I think it is implied, and wo have come to ask you to do The President replied that as at present advised ho must decline to recoguiza the uoi.sC containing sixty-three members, and he did not .know that ho would recognize the other house ; thatChamberlain was gov ernor until some one was regularly inaugu rated iu bis place, and that he would sus tain him. The President did not say that I had violated his confidence in any particular but he said it would havo been a violation of his confidence if I had sent tho telegram reported to him from Columbia, the sending of which I again denied. I then reminded tho President that he had tho minus of test ing tho accuracy of my recollection of his stiteinents, becanse immediately after tho uterview on Sunday I dictated thesubstance of tho conversation and furnished h m with a copy and requested him to return to me with any correction ho might clumso to make, to be published, If he wmild c Hsent; ono to bo retained for his future inspection iu case after tho 4th of March next his in tentions should bo called in question. He had not returned me the copy mi i'iir:ii-licd nor made any corrections therein to my kuowltdge The President said nothing to me iu regard to my using any of his statements for pur poses of defeating the party which ho (tho President) represented. I havo never rt' garded the Piesident nf tho United States as representing any party, and 1 shall regret to see the Piesident take an other position than that of the hnnirt'd head of lliu people of the United States without regard to party.
