THE IMDKSDISG CRISIS.
The Hon. Clarkson N. Pottor, a dis
tinguished democrat of New York, ably
discusses in the Herald of Wednesday
the questions that have been forced
npon the country by the desperate and
and treasonable conspiracy to put into
the office of President the defeated can
didate. This contribution of Mr. Pottor
is important not only for the ability with
■which the questions r.rc considered but
from the confidential relations of its
author with the leading democrats ofthe
nation. Wo regret that our space does
not permit the reproduction of the en
tire letter and we must therefore con
tent ourselves* it ha brief review. As
suming that the Kellogg Returning
Board will count out the democratic
electors of Louisiana, Mr. Potter pro
ceeds to give a history of the infamous
usurpation which rules in that state,and
which having twice .subverted its dec
tions, in 1572 and 1874. now proposes to
overthrow the choice of the nation for
President. The history of this usurpa
tion is so well understood by the Ameri
can people that it is not necessary to
follow Mr. Potter in this review of one
of the most lamentable chapters in their
history, lu regard to the former sets of
the Returning Board the judgment of the
country is so fully made up that no de
cision of this Roard will bo entitled to
the least respect.
Concerning the pretense that the pre
siding officer ofthe senate has the power
of counting the electoral votes and de
claring the result which is necessary for
the plan of the conspiracy, Mr. Potter
agrees with General Butler and he pro
duces a long and unbroken line of pre*
cedents from the foundaticn of the gov
ernment to the last presidential election
is support of his position. The first
precedent is that of 1797 when John
Adams presided over the joint conven
tion of the two houses and announced
the result in his own favor in the fol
lowing words: "By the report which
has been made to me by the tellers ap
pointed by the two houses to examine
the votes, there are seventy-one votes
for John Adams, etc." If the President
of the senate were more than a minis
terial officer, executing the will of the
joint convention to count the electoral
vote,-would Mr. Adams have employed
this language ? Or would the framers
ofthe constitution have reposed in that
officer so vast a power which might be
exercised in a given case to count him
self into the Presidency 7 The next pre
cedent is that of Missouri in 1821, when
Henry Clay asked the question, "Would
the house allow the Vice-President single
ar.d alone to decide the question of the
legality ofthe vote"? No one pretend
el to answer in the affirmative. Mr.
Clay continued: "The two houses are
called upon to enumerate the votes for
President and Vice President. Of course
they are called upon to decide what are
votes." The latest and most weighty
precedent of all is that of Louisiana
whose vote was declared for Grant in
1873 by Gov. Kellogg on the certificate
of this same Returning Board. When
the return from Louisiana was opened
by the presiding officer of the senate,
Mr. Hoar, of Massachusetts, moved that
the electoral vote be rejected on the
ground of gross fraud, and it was rcject
el. There was no pretense of interfer
ence or claim of a right to count the vote
on the part of the presiding officer of
the senate.
Having effectually disposed of the as
sumption that the presiding officer of
the senate "singly and alone" can count
the rotes and declare the result, Mr.
Potter proceeds to show the powers of
the two houses oTer the subject. As
both houses must meet to count the
electoral vote, no vote can be counted
without the consent of each. No electo
ral vote has ever been counted, or as
sumed to be counted, against the ob
jection of either house. The joint rule
of 1865, of which so much has been said
could add nothing to the constitutional
power of the two houses. It has value
as showing the exercise of the j*>wer to
count the Tote by congress in joint con
vention. The duty of receiving and
connting the votes is a high constitu
tional dnty which the members of con
gress must exercise upon their con
sciences and oaths and for the exercise
of that duty the constitutiou has not
made them responsible to any power
on earth.
Mr. Potter next discusses the remedy
in case Kellogg's Returning Board should
reverse the popular vote of Louisiana in
accordance with the plan of the conapira
tors to defeat the election of a President.
A* was done with the vote of Louisiana
in 1873 the house can take notice of the
public fact that the vote returned by
Kellogg's Board was not the lawful vote
of the state, and refuse to count it. If
the vote should not be counted, as in
1873, Mr. Tilden either is chosen by the
majority of the electors, 184 to 177 for
Hayes, or there is no election. In the
latter case it then becomes the immedi
ate duty of the house of representatives,
under the express injunctions of the
constitution, to choose a President by the
votes of the states. If Mr. Ilayesshould
be so chosen liis election will then be in
strict compliance with all the provis
ions and forms of law. This choice of a
President would thus be in accordance
with the requirements of the constitu
tion and with the spirit of our republis
can institutions. It would be sustained
by public opinion and by the immense
majority of the popular vote by which
Mr. Tilden was declared the choice of
the country for the Presidency. Mr.
Potter asked who could lawfully dispute
the authority ofu President thus chosen
and recognized by the house on repre
sentatives. Resistance would be rebell
ion and treason. The Louisiana band
its may as well canvass the vote that was
was lawfully cast, as their fraud will
neither be admitted by the representa
tives of the people nor endorsed by pub
lic opinion.
There rre democratic gains all over
the north and west, and why not in the
south also.
In Florida and Louisiana the radicals
had all the election boards and sol
diers stationed at the polls by command
of Grant to prevent (?) frauds, and en
tire control of the stategovernments.nnd
were beaten, yet now 'have the impu
dence to say there was fraud practiced by
the democrats, and want to throw out
enough of democratic counties to leave
a majority for Hayes. This is going a
little farther than democrats can ba ex
pected to submit to.
J twas soldiers before the election to
carry to those states, and fulling, it i"
now more soldiers to put llayea in by a
rascally count. There are other people
who also can plnv soldier, if things ate
: to go thus.
THK SOUTH IS THK KI.KCTJOS.
The World says: While Chandler ami
his allies are concocting schemes fur
"counting in" a defeated candidate for
the Presidency, it may help cool and
temperatecitizens towards a just esti
mate of the drill of popular feeling and
public opinion in the North at this time
to recapitulate quietly the practical re
sults in the way of majorities of the re
cent contest, and to compare with them
the results reached in the election >f
1872. In 1872 the Grant electors were
chosen in all the New Kuglaiid Mates,
in all the Middle, aud in all the West
em States. In ISTtlTildenelector* have
been chosen in one of the New Fngland
States, in three of the Middle Stati*.

In the face of these tremendous figu
res it may bo wise for the unscrupulous
partisans who by their maladministra
tion and their notorious complicity with
• public rascalities of every sort have so
completely broken down the Republi
, can party in the great North and West,
to go on in their shameless defiance of
law and their utter disregard ofthebusi
ness interests and the national reputation
ofthe American people. Perhaps again
it may not be wise for them to do this.
Suppose they should venture on Napo
leon's experiment of a plebiscite to
morrow in the North and West exclu
sively ?
Our neigbltor, the Watchman, csi*
to be riled because Pcnnsvally rolled up
a handsome majority for Tilden. and
desires to know who is to blame because
our people did not do the same thing in
1874 and back. The democrats of Pcnns
vally always did their duty, and ifit were
not for them the democratic party in
Centre county would be worse than no
where. We don't care about its taunt
of 1574, or other years, only to say that
in that year we had the disorganizing
Modocs to fight who joined hands with
the rads to defeat our nominees, and
that may have taken a little from our
count then. May be the Watchman
knows something about it. We care a
great deal more just now to show up the
great rascality that the Grant-Cameron
gang is trying against Tilden, than to re
ply to the empty taunt of Pennsvally
democrats on the results of '74, 73, or
'72.
As for the credit that #ur neighbor
fears we may get in the good work done,
we are claiming nothing in it. We
think it is the Watchman man who
keeps appropriating all that and has a
habit of telling? elected candidates "he
did it," even to informing democratic
commissioners that they owe their elec
tion altogether to Aim. We always
thought some 3500 democrats did that
work.
A subscriber clips the following from
the I'ittsburg Commercial and requests
us to publish it:
There is trouble among the lowa
Grangers. They complain bitterly that
the National Grange is eating up their
substance without any equivalent re
turn. This National Grange is charged
with being a ring of self constituted
priests, having by secret and adroit
management, established themselves in
office and power by levying exhorbi
tant taxes upon State granges, thereby
enabling them to get large salaries, and
take annual excursions with their fami
lies at fabulous cost, all at the expense
of the taxpayers. To do this they have
entrenched themselves behind a high
and self-constituted degree of "Priests
ofMerdia," to which none are admitted
except such as are deemed advisable.
From this inner temple are dictated to
the subordinates nil orders and decrees,
and from which there is no appeal. It is
now proposed to wipe out this star
chamber by abolishing all the useless
degrees and eliminating all the use
less machinery and parade of the or
der.
If Tilden can be cheated out of a few
electors by Grunt's soldiers, lie can not
be robbed of the 300,000 popular maj
ority by which the people of the United
.States hare endorsed hint over bayonet
Hayes.
PENNSYLVANIA.
At last the returns from all the coun
ties in the .State have been reeciv d by
the Secretary of State at Harrisburg.
They show an aggregate vote of 758,057,
by far the largest vote ever polled in the
State, the nearest approach to it being
the vote for Governor in October, 1972,
which aggregated 672,469, or 86,488 less
than the vote of this year for President.
The total vote of last year for Governor
was 009,504. The totals are as follows.

FACTS-ABOUT THE RADICAL CRY
OF INTIMIDA TIO.X.
A New Orleans special despatch to the
Philadelphia Times says of the election
in the parishes w here the Republicans
claim the negroes were intimidated:
The army officer on duty in East Ba
ton Kouge savs the election there was
very peaceable; that he has had no com
plaint of intimidation, and that hun
dreds of negroes voted with the Demo
crats. An eminent citizen of East
Feliciana says negroes there made no
concealment about voting with the
Democrats, and hundreds did so. The ]
only case of intimidation was that of a;
white man who was publich whipped
l>y negroes for leaving the Republiiun
party. In Ouachita, which gave the
l>ouu>crnts I,UN) majority and which has
n majority of negroes the full registered
vote was )olled lacking only 100 In
Richland Parish,also, there was a large
vot for Tilden and Nichollshy negroes
The worst ease against the Pi Minerals is
found in a parish where no ltepnhlieao
vote was returned. This is accounted
for by the statement that when Kellogg
found that the pmish was going for tin
IVtnoeruta anyway, instructions wen
given to Republican negr. cs not to xot
at all,as a !>mb for an application t
throw out the parish. It i> a little n
nuirkahletli.it in parishes w here intimi
dation is alleged troops were stationed
and th# county otllceis were in the pos
session of Republicans.

Columbia, Nov. 22. The board of
state canvassers yesterday nnule a report
to the supreme court stating the j>ersoii>
who had received the highest uumbt rot
voles for the offices for w hieh they were
candidates, \ppended to the rejH.rt o
results was a memorandum of the board
stating that in their opinion certain ir
regularities which affected some of the
republican candidates should be correct
ed and also that the vote of Laurens and
Kdgefleld counties which gave large
democratic majorities sh. übl be exclud
ed on account of frauds and intimida
tions.
This morning the court made an order
commanding the board to issue certifi-
I rates of election to all the persons who
, were show üby the rcjiort of the board to
J have received the highest number of
votes for members of the legislature in-
eluding the counties of Kdgefleld and
Laurens. The court also to-day took up
the care of the electors and issued a rule
ou the board to show cause why tin v
should not correct the statements of the
[ county canvassers by the present returns
. in their possession. Pending these pro
s ceedings of the court, however, the
. board held a session ami issued certifi
! cates to all the metulwrs of the !egi-la-
ttire except for Laurens ami Edgefield
. counties, thus securing a majority of |!n
, j legislature to the republicans and s ■ ur
f ing the defeat of Hampton and the elee->
i tion of Chamberlain. The board al
issued certificates of election t tin
Hayes and Wheeler electors and to
■all the republican state ticket. The
: board then adjourned sine vi e.
| This action of the board has creatv d
much excitement; but the citizens are
determined to rely up mi the court- and
exhaust all legal means of n drc--.
HO If TO DO IT.
1 It is well enough for honest people of
" the North of both parties to understand
1 the mode whereby it is pr p< -edtogive
• J the Mate of Louisiana t- Hayes. K r
" cool infamy it has no parallel in our
' political history. It is commonly snp
• posed that the State would be cl;ng> 1
t to Haves by simply rejecting the five
t parishes originally decided upon to 1
; thrown out; hut as they give but Mb",
for Tilden, while h.- majority in the
Mate is over 7.GCO, there must be double
as much Hayes majority manufactured
in seme way to defraud Tilden out of
the electoral vote. How it is to be done
is best explained by the New Orleans
Republican of Wednesday, the organ of
Kellogg, in the following extract from
its leading editorial :
Counting the h -t Republican majori
ties and adding them to tlie reputed
' Democratic majorities, we find the total
, to be between 8,000 and 0,000, as fol
lows :

To merely throw out the reputed
Democratic majorities in the above par
ishes would not satisfy justice. To do
that fully it will be necessary to restore
the Republican strength which has been
destroyed by the civil war which has
been waged in them for the very pur
pose of setting up this claim which the
I>emocrats now urge.
It will be seen that in order to give
Hayes the electoral vote of Louisiana
the Kellogg Return Hoard must not only
reject the Tilden majority of 4,413, but
it must manufacture a Hayes majority
of 3,979, from purely imaginary votes,
and then it will give but a nominal ma
jority for Hayes. When it is consider
ed that the Republican vote of these
parishes that is to be substituted and
certified as the legal vote, is the vote
certified by the Kellogg Roard of 1874.
and the same vote that Mr. Wheelerand
both branchesof a Republican Congress
rejected as a shaine on civilization as
Senator FMmunds expressed it, the
enormity of the contemplated fraud will
be appreciated. The proposition not
only to reject returns, but to substitute a
vote confessedly never cast, and based
on a previous vote that lias been declar
ed by all parties to be a glaring fraud, is
a measure of violence to the public will
and to tin- integrity of the ballot, that
Louis Napoleon in bis direst necessities
would not have attempted. Surely the
candid men of all parties need but know
what the Kellogg Return Hoard really
mean to do, to utter such an emphatic
protest as w ill make fraud turn to burn
ing ashes in the hands of its authors.
WIIA T Mil. COOVEII SA YS.
From the World.'
The expression of the popular w ill is
in favor of Mr. Tilden rather than Mr.
Hayes for President. There is not the
least doubt that the party in power
would practice fraud to secure the elec
tion of their candidates, but the will of
the people, as expressed in the ballot
box, may deter them from doing so.
Hut in the event of Mr. Tilden being
counted out by fraudulent or illegal
means, I have good reasons to fear
trouble —iitrhapsa second civil war. If
there be fraud practiced it may cause an
almost general popular uprising, and
there iH no telling w hat the result will
be to the country. Yet I have strong
faith in the good sense of the American
people and believe that trouble will be
averted.
The official table of the members of
both branches of the new Legislature,
shows a Republican majority of twelve
in the Senate and thirty-nine in the
House, making fifty-one on joint bal
lot.

DEPARTMENT ESTIMATES FoR
THE COMING YEAR SI7&.OOQ,UUU
ASKED Full
Washington, November 22 The House
committee on appropriations did not meet
t-da.r <>n account of the ahience of Chair
man Randall, who is exported from I-ou
itiana to-morrow. The estimates of all
the departments are in th* possession af
the committee except for the deficiency
hill and the legislative, executive and
judicial appropriation hill. The estimates
call for |25.0U0,C(W more than last year's
appropriation, or in round numbers $175.-
000,OtlO, as acsilist S)SO.UU).bUi apprepria
ed at the last session of Congress. The
> mmittee expect* to rut the appropria
tion down ten to fifteen million* below thr
nmi'Utit appropriated last year by culling
down the work ing force in some of the de
partments. The factthal th* departments
have been run this summer in spile of the
wholesslo absence > f clerk* will he the
main argument used. The committee
does not anticipate a* much apposition to
the pro| - sed reduction as it uiet last win
ter.
Mr. and Mrs. Yarborough were married
in Hicktnan, Tenn., eight yenra ago. They
were very young, and their engagement
and wedding, managed by their parent*,
was devoid of sentiment. They were di
vorced a year afterward. Thit fall they
inet in Nn-hville. Mrs Yarborough was
yet onlg twenty-four years old, and had
grown handsome. 51 r. Yarborough had
alto improved in appearance. They fell
|in lore, but this time her parents forbade
the intimacy, and locked her in her room.
He got her out through a window, they
elopi-J, were cliaseJ by her angry father,
w ere remarried, and now seem much bet
ter satisfied than when they were united
w uhout any row.
GOD'S EYE UPON l'S.
Fifth Avenue Baptist Church, Rev. Dr.
Armilage, chose for his text the Thirty!
second l'snlm, eighth verse .• "1 will in
struct and teach thee in the way in which
thou slialt go. I will guide the with mine
eye " After the opening hymn, "Guide
me, O thou Great Jehevah," Dr. Armi
lage said ;
Every man lins some conception of
Gnu's character, natural or distorted, true
or|false, fancied or real, and that idea
gives torio and shape to n man's religion
lfhi* deep, inward heart impression of
God be that God is kind, affectionate,
great and warm hearted, the man will par
take of the same complexions, and men
w ill *oo in the servant of such a God seme
thing that is attractive, lovable and mug*
iiitniinous. Hence there is great signiti- ,
ennce in the promise which says, "1 will
give thee n heart to know mn." A man ;
must remember that he himsc'f ha* '
heart before he can understand that God
has a heart just as ho comes to under- ,
stand another human being in order to fee
and reciprocate his lore.
The wntehful, tender and loving God ,
sees that man has a dangerous way to go
and knows not t lie path ; therefore Ho say*
to man. "I will instruct thee in the way in
which thou alialt go." Man, if loft to him- '
self, would lose the (lath and turn from it '
Hence God says to him,"l will direct thee, '
I will accompany thoo at every step and if
thou <omcst to MI intricate point 1 will
guide thee with mine eye." Can you eon ■
vlnce of a sweeter or more inspiring pic
ture than that of an infallible guide walk
ing lit the side of u trusting traveller who
tukos step by step in a dubious and strange
path which ho has never passed before,
and ever ond unon lie casts his anxious
glance into the eye of his trusted compan
ion t<> speak forth his diruolien* iu the
friendly decisions ot tho eye 7 This is

Let us seo how tliia pas-age can bo made

iiion saya. "He that trusteth in his own
heart is a fool." This calls for total self
abandonment and total committal to the i
guidance of God, in the calm persuasion i
that that quiet trust is info. Solomon I
moan* the man who, in all the (
complex actions of life, trusts to i
himself is u fool. Tho highest pitch of fol- f
ly is to assume the responsibility of safety <
in all the intricacies of his wuys. When <
or.e doe* that his own character is his own

What power it toluetirnet in an eye ! i
I )Hen the eye of a ruler liat quelled the
fury of a mob; aornetimet the eye ola
teacher hat aruuted the dormant energies
of a gigantic but indolent initid ; the eye!
i <>f a tiatoman hat often silenced the clam* |
or of a Se*, ate. while the flat hi rig glance of
a general bat inspired the bravery of an j
arinv and tired it with victory A mad j
man i* ({untied by the eve of bit keeper I
ami wilt, before it Itko a blushing child. ;
Then what power the eye pose* toj
cheer, to comfort and to encourage ! The:
* hole human family understand lit darl
ing utterance*, and by its speech the pur
est and greatest soult maintain intercourse
with each other. It it impossible to give
to it any eipreation of the tout that it not
suggestive. It is the representative of all
that transpire* in the breast. You all
know what the eye ol your greiyed moth
er means when she looks upon you with
out hope ; you also know what a broken
hearted father means when be turns his
imploring gain upon his wayward daugh
ter or hit prodigal ton. Neither can mis
understand what Jrtus meant as he catt
his tad, loving gaze over the sons of men
and hurst into tear* because they were
"at sheeep without a shepherd." This is
divine eye guidance. It is the shorthand
of mule toui-speech, lu penetration it
rapid at lightning, and lU accuracy
matches iu speed. If you have done
wrong, it speaks free forgiveness, instead
lof sever* punishment. If it approve*, it
'-peak* sntiilactiun without elaborate,
praise. It it to suggestive, also, as tn
whether we are to turn this way or that j

thunder out denunciations, hut his eye it
eloquent, just as the eye of your adoring
wife, or rhi'.d, or friend tells you when you
have touched tbeii heart.
"The child-like faith that asks not eight,
\\ aits not for wonder or fer sign.

The reputation it has attained, in
consequence of the marvellous cures it
has produced during the last half cen
tury, is a sufficient assurance to the
public that it will continue to realize
the happiest results that can be desired.
In almost every section of country
there are persons, publicly known, who
have been restored from alarming and
even desperate diseases of the lungs
by its use. AU who have tried it ac
knowledge its superiority; and where
its virtues arc known, no one hesitates

lieve the distress and suffering peculiar
to pulmonary affections. CHKRRY PEC
TORAL always affords instant relief and
performs rapid cures of the milder va
rieties of bronchial disorder, us well as
the more formidable diseases of the
lungs.
~ As a safeguard to children, amid
the distressing diseases which beset
the Throat and Chest of Childhood it
