They regularly supervised Republican meet- Ings, and fu many cases broke them up and maltreated the speaker. In Madison County, where Gen, McKce was assaulted, the Republice ans polled only 17 votes, instead of 2,500, whercas it is shown by past elec- tions that they had always had n prior majority of 2,000. DeSoto County, which should and has given 6,000 Republican majority this year, gave 851 Democratic majority.

Armed bodles of men, gencrally disguiscd, rodo about at night through the county for tnany nights Lefore the election Intimidating, flogging, and otherwise maltreating colored Republicans, . but promising to protect them {f they would join the Democratic clube. In registeriug, colored men were made to answer such questions as in what township, section, or range they resided, and by whom cmployed, and many other questions difficult and often impossible for an illiterate man to answer, and which many white Democrats wers neither able nor required to auswer. When these questions wore not properly answered the colored applicant was denled registration, Many similar measures were resorted to, and Missis- slppl gave a magnificent majority for Tilden and Reform, ———— *CWIIL the Returning Board count itsell into prison or exlle?” This Is the heading of an edi- torlal in the New York World of the 20th 1n- stant on the Loulslana question.

Potter, of Now York, an In- timate friend of Mr. Tilden, has published In tho #erald a letter which s belleved to embody the programme to be followed by the Demo- crats in the event of the disputed Btates be- Ing given to Mr. Hayes. Of this letter the principal points are as follows: .+ . Ansumingthat, after the Electoral vote of South Carolina and Florida ehatl have been counted for Hayca; the Returning Doard of Lou- fatana will, without Just canwe, reject, npon pre- tense of violence, ihe vole in envugh Democratic districta toglve the State to the linyea Electors, and thone Electors be by that Board returnod an elected, lot us consider” what wiH then the Tawful and regnlar zourse of procecding, that we may dlacover what, If sny, lawful remeay for that aburs will remain, On the second Wedneeday In Pebruary the fToases of Congress are required to meet in Jolnt Conven- tian, that the Electoral votes mn{ be opened and counted. - It has beon assumed that the House of Representatives will refuse to attend to perform thot duty, The interviewers might have saved thelr titne, The 1ouse will most certainly attend, and the President of the Senate will then open the returne. Just here fet me refer to the proposition that the President of the Senato wmlcht bimself, against whatever objection—by sheer force of muscle and voice, I suppose—recelve, nscertain, and count the votes and proclaim the result, But It should be remembered that no nmount of voice nor sudacity can confer constitutiousl right. The Conatitution gives the President of the Senate no suthurity to count the votes,—meaning, by **counting,'™ the Flght of naccrialning and tecelving the Yoles. TFor to count the votes s to declde whatnre vote: Itisonly the Elcctors of the States who have & right to vote, ~ All that the Cunstitution says Is that ** The Prestdent of the Senate shall, in the rsence of the Senate and House of Itepresenta- “vcn, open all the certificates, and the votes shall llu:‘n b\:lcuunle;l." Connted by whom, the Consti- tutlon does not ray. 1f 1o _boe counted by the Vica-President was meant, 1 think no one familiar with the preciscand terec atyle of the Constitulion could duunt that the clause would have read, ** The Preslient of the Senate ehall, In the presence of the Eenate and Tlouse of Representatives, open all the certifcates and count the votes,'' The change in the formn of thelanguage shows that it was not he who was to count. Amd what conld be more nnreazonable than that the Vice.President, who, by ont aystem, s do- prived of ull resl power, and {4 only nn r.-xrecl- uncy provided for thie contingency of a Praslder- tiul’ vacancy or incapacity, who more frequently than any other oflicer of the Government has been himxelf a candidate for the Presidency, should alone possess the unequaled power of determining Hhot" elected to bu Execulive of this great na- on? , . . But, whatever moy be thonght of this as an orig. inal question, 1t may well be claimed that the practice of the Government has settied the Inters pretation of this clausc of the Constitutl Never sinca the Guvernment nny Vice-President assuted to connt an Electoral vote, except aa the Houres permitted: and nover once, in all the twcmr-(nme elections decided, has o Viee-Fresident falled to withhold or to pre- vent returns, or to reject or announce votes, as the Hoyees directed, . . But, If tne counting of the votes be by the Constl- tution vested in the two Houses of Congress, it follows unavoldably that they must both concur In the count, s 1t is u necessnry and elementary principle that, when & power s glven to two to be exercised by them conjointly, both must concur in its excrelse, 1ti8 the esscnilsl featurc of our system of gove ernment that both Honses must concur in every act of leglslation. Every such act of one House without the concurrence of the other 18 of no validgity, Tothen glve one Houso the vital power of detérmining, alone, und without the concur- rence of the other, the Electoral vote, would be agninst the whole epirit of onr system. o . And the Honses have always acted upon thle as- sumption. . No Electoral voie has ever been count. ©d, or assimed tobe counted, agsinatthe objection of clther Houte. Unlmnuf{. the Houses have ngreed upon some Joint rule In respect to count- ing, The jolnt rule passed in 1505, so much apoken of, conld, of course, add moth- ing tu the conetitutlonal wee of the two Honsca. In effecct it anly expresscd what liad been embraced in previous Jolut orders, or in the former action of the llouses; was a mere muth- od of regnlating the orderly proccedings of the bodies under (‘xlluufl law, ‘and wns u practical construction by the Ilauscs of their constitutional ower in this respect. Neceswarily, auy jolut rule, lhat no vote, objectedl o by elther Hlouse, should De counted, must reault either from the recognized want of power in one Iouse to alone roceive or count Electorul votes againat the other: or elve it must resuit from the willingnes of cuch House, lllholx‘ilmolleushxp therlght to count the Electoral voles alune, to voluntarlly abnegate that most i« portant functlon, and to agreo In_adyance to con- cnr without hesitation in uny objection the other House might ralse,—on alternative so uunrluzr- poncda the rightd and duty of a Tegislative body Il;fi of the oathe of its mewubers a8 to be inadwmle- sible, I, then, neither Mouso hns constitutinnal power 1o recelve and connt the Electoral votes ausinat the objection of the other, §t can be of no {mportance to that question whether the joinl rule Le vow re. pealed oF not, 8o, t0o, the fact that, when objections had been ralved to any vate from cither House, the Houses have at once separated to pass, each by and for {taelf, upon the objection, shows thelr oplnion npon the necessity uf A concurrence of both Houscs in receiving and counting Electorut votes; and that, without sich concurrence, nelther llouse of itself, nor the Joint Convention, was compctent to receive and count the votes objected to. 1f, a4 Las been thonght by wome, the Joint Couventlon could uct nea distinct body and decide upon the votes to be counted, then'in February next the re- suit will de{wud on the actlon of the Democruts, as thelr mujorlty in the present House much excoeds the Republican mujurity in the Sunate, But how can n vote, tabo recelved und counted by two, be counted unless they agree? ‘To be wure, we conld always take the lowest count, itut, to that extent, tliey do agreo; beyond that, and o fur a# they do tiol agree, Chere can bo nv count. And o [t must reanlt either that Electorsl volus cannat biereceived or counted without the anvent of both Hou<cs of Congress: or that the Vicu-Presilout can count o Presient in, arbltra. rily, and In defiance of Congress; or elee thut elther House can_alone direct thut the votes shall Le received, which, in the case of a double vote, mightnecessltate the absurdity of counting buth Feturns, and the vole of the State both wuys. 1 subinit that alternatives so absurd loave ue with no other conclusion thau that Electors) vales can Da recelved ond counted only with the concurrence or permisesunl of both Housés of Congreas. Undoubtediy the duty of receiving und counting the Electora) vote Is a high constitutional duty, which the el of Congress must excrcise upon their conscrences unid ouths of oftice: but of that duty they are the judges, and forits dischnrie the Constitutlon has not mude thew responsible to B0y power on earth, seuming then that the Returniug Board of Lon- {sfana will reverse the popular verdict of that State, will it Le conclusive npon the HNouses of Congress, or le there any fact, beyond the face of ihe returus, of which the Houses can take notice? For fustance, it §s certuinly known that Massachu- setts s choden layes Eldctors, They will pres- ently meot and vote for Hayes, Suppuse that by same At of Inwanity, or the perverslun of memor) which Mr. Whita calls **licterophemy, " the cler! who I% to ensroes tho certiticates should write SPilden ™ instead of **Hayes,™ and that this oulil be overlooked while tho ceriificatus wero med and_untll opened before Congecsw, would thie Louses bo conctuded by that mistuke, or might they take uotice of the historical fact, and ot Jeast rujéct the votes for Thlden if they could not count then for Hayes? At any rate the Housos have done shnilar thinge, Tu 1857 they took notice that the meeting of Elect- ors of Wisconaln liad been prevented by storm un the duy required by law, ands directed the vote 10 be eparately counted. ' In 1872, on the objec- tion of Mr. Georgo tloar that Mr.sGrecley ‘was dvad und had died before the Electoral College of Georgls met, ** und s0 way not o person within the mnm;]nu of the Conatitution, this beln: u historic fact, of which the two tloused may properly tuke noticy," the votes of Geurgly, cast for Grecley, were rejected, AL the same time the Senate ra- fuaed Lo receive or consider an amendment dech fug **that the function of the two llouses was iiniuteriul merely, il Independent of the ques tiun of the elfect of the vate, " Hut whother the llouse might properly take notice of thiv arlwllmri nct of “the Returne ing Mourd; whether having permlitied the President 1o sct up & wllitar overnnent without authority of . lnw In Loulsiana, the Fedoral Colsruss Are now powcrless 10 go hehiud any fulss return of the Elecloral voto which (hat Governmient, though kept upnow only by mil- ftary furce, sy make, aud avcertaln the true re- sultof the pupular vole, wonld not the Congress at Teawt have power 10 take nutlee of the lmhllc fact that e vote returned by the lwllu»{*i Electors was uut the lawlul vole of 1he State of Loutviava, and o decllne 1o roceive and count it?

For It muat he the neceasary and nos cal result of holding that either Honse cas the vulu of A Biate, that, whenever there are tvo returna from a State, and the Ilousea do not agreo 84 to which Is the real vote of the State, its vote wlil bo counted both ways. if, then, tha vola of Loulslana ahall not he counted, and Mr, ifayes he olfowed Florlda and Houth Carolina, he will have 177 volea and Mr. Tilden 184, and then clther Mr. Tilden will be elected or there will be no election of Presldent. And it will then become the immediate duty of the Houna of Rapresentatives, indur the express di- rection uf the Constitution, to proceed to clinuse & President by the votes of States, each State having ana vote, and, 1f Mr, Hayes should then be chosen Prerident, ho will e chosen abeolutely 1n strictest complinnce with all the provisions nnd forma of law, und will be ae abaolutely nnd lawfully Preel- dent as nny man ever was, 8o, oo, if thu lloude ahould chnose Mr. Tilden. ‘The Constitution hae provided for no person or hady to notify the llouee thal there has been ho clection for Preakdent by the Electore, nor, by deciding whether to make or withhold such not(- fication, to judge of that fact, hut has left the House sole |ndze of the happening of the contin- wency calling for its actlon, Asoncof thecounters of tho Electoral vote, the llouse munt necesqurily know whetlier that vote has terulted In a cholce, and, 80 kunowing, dues not require notification of the fact. Accordinzly, had the Constitution rmvlded for & notification to ihe llonse, it wonld have been to make ita action in that reanect de- endent on some other judement of the happens ng of that contfngeney than it own. Int. in- siend, it Teaves the Houre to act upon Its own knowledge, Independent of the actlon uf any other hody or person, nnd directs the Houee, in that cons tingency, of which It nuce rily kuowledye, and ls itself 1o be the Judge, to procced to chiouse & President, And to whom could the l‘ntl(hm of whether the power was {0 be exercised he so properly committed As to the body which [« to exercine the power, to that great popular beanch of the Government which specially represents the people, and whose members, of all thn<e connected with the Federal Gosernment, are zlone elected by the people. Having, then, the ordinary and usual authorlty of every superior hody, invested with the exercl<e of a sipreme functlon, of determining for itmell the occaslon when it may be lawfully exercined, aud_haviug, therefore. the anlhority to decide for {taelf whether s President has been chosen by the Electors or not, and, if not, to then itself choose the Preeldent, who can lawfally diepute the wa. lhnfll( of the President whom the House of Itep- resentatives may thus choose?

It will permit the countinz of every vots which it oy Judse lawful to be counted; and no vote can be lawfully counted without jt« concurrence or ogainal its Judgment and direction, Whomever, by the vote #0 counted, aball appenr to have the majority of all the Electors appointed will be President, and will be aceepted by the Democratic party as such: and whomever, if no President be so chosen, the gov\lllr branch of the Government shall then, in ue form, choose to Prestdent, will be so ne- cepted h( them: and it will be those who mnay sce it to renlst the Executive, thus lawfully elected, who will be defying the law.
