Providence was kind, too, in having provided n layer of suow five or six inches thick ns an effectual shicld for the roofs of the vicinity, 80 that tho work of fighting the extonsion of the fire was grently fucilitated. ‘The loss {s stated ot $198,000, ¢ e m————— Tho eanvass of the returns in Louisiaun and Florida proceeded yesterdny ns though the custom of giving thauks were alien to the Doubtful States—albeit it 1must bo nd- i witted that the necessities of the case woro o urgent, and the canvessers aro Ladly pressed for timo to conmplote their labors. At New Orleans decisivo notion was takou by the Re. turning Bonrd whicl is understood to op- erate to the vrojection of returny j wheroby the Democrats loie a total 2z ERIE of 1,183 votos, and the annoiitcoment is mnde that the Bonard will icar no more wit- g nesses, but will positively promulgate the { s T count of the Electoral vote on Tuceday next. In Floridn tho day was dovoted to alldnvits charging all sorts of crookeduess in connec- tion with the returns on both sides, sud no definite action was taken affecting the result in tho State. In regard to the tedious dispute botween tho City Government nud the Weat Sido Gas Company on the point whether the Compa- uy shall reduce its contract prico of Ri to $2 or to F1.40 por 1,000 feet, we are aware that there are proposals to light tho streots with oil, but the bids invited for lighting the Inmps with oil demnuded a coinponsa- tion equal por lamp to the estimated cost of lighting with gny at the Company’s offer, While, 03 a menus of redress or eseape from an existing manopoly, the use of oil, or auy other meaus for lighting tho stroots, might, and ought, perhaps, to be ndopted, thero is an objection to a return by u large metropo- lis to tho primitive systen of rural towns. More than one.Lalf iho peo- plo of the city reside’ on the Went Bido; there is n wvast aren of val. uable property, occupied as residences and for business, Wo question the justico or tho fairness of taxing these peoplo and their property to light all the streots of North or Bouth Chicago with gas, and romit tho West Division with its 250,000 inhabi- tanis to the wso of oil in the streot-lamps. Buch a policy caunot bo otherwiso than o diserimination to the great injury of all tho property iu that division, and to the groat discomfort und inconvonience of the resi. donts and to busiuess, It would nobt be strango if such a proceeding, if persisted in, would end in u wholesalo exodus of residents to tho other portions of the city, If the Council had the powerto compul the Gas Company to accept its terms, then it might readily ix o maximwn price to be paid for gos ; but when jb hns no such power, when the city has no wouey to waste ineither law- | sulty or protyacted trials of obstinavy and eu- durance, it does look liko folly to rojoct tho grently-rediced terms offored, and plunye into n sories of litigations covering a period long surviving the contract which it socks to set nsldo. AsJudge Dnoustyoxn plainly in- dicates, tho controveray s child’s pluy, whicl should bo settlod by the pariies, and not taken to the Courts for determination. The turbulont contestants for the posses. sion of the Government of South Carolinn were in no humor yesterdny to observe Thanksgiving-Dny. * Exciting and eritical ovents took the place of tho penceful com- plncency which a propor recognition of the national holiday should bring,—events which seriously threnten to precipitate the droaded issue of violence and bloodshed. By o trick which was not suspected until it was past prevention, the Hawrroy branch of the Legislaturo = took their seats in the Assombly Hall of the State-House an hour bofore the timo of - meeting nppointed by tho Iepublienn body, the elevon Democrats from Edgefiold and La- rens Counties usurping tho seats of the Re- publican members from those counties, ‘Theroupon the extraordinary scona was pre- souted of two opposing Legislatures in the same room, both assuming to trausact busi- ness, though without violent domonstrations, oud finally an adjournment until to-day was ngreed upon, The most serious phuse of the situation is that growing out of the ne. tion of the Democratio HHouso in seat ing tho Edgefield nnd’ aurons claim- ants, who, under the advice of Waoe Haxrron and Scnntor Gonnoy, propose to stay in thefr sents until forcibly ojected.

Ruaen bas given notico that nt noon to-lay these parties will bo removed from tho House, and there 15 renson to fear that tho Rifle Cluba new assembling in Co- lumbus will offer resistancoto tho bandful of troops who shall undertake to exccute the order, If this shonld oceur, thera is hardly o doubt that the troops would be over. powered Ly superior numbers, and hostili- tios begin which will end, no one can tell how or where. MODE OF ELECTING PRESIDENT. The extraordinary condition of uncertnin- ty in the result of tho Presidentinl elec- tion, involving at lenst o thrent of national strifo, and certainly offering inducements for falso and fraudulent counting of votes, lins uaturally directed popular attention to the advisability and tho nocessity of so reform- ing the presont systom nsto prevent the recurrence of such an alarming state of things. Tako the two theories which are now opposed to ono another for the solu- tion of the nationnl difficulty. On the one hond it is urged that the result in each State is finnlly determined by the returns made by the ofiicers appointed for that pur. pose by each State; and that when theso returns nre made tho certificates are to be opened by the President of the Sonate, in the presenco of the two Houses of Congress, the volos counted aud the result declared. This is ihe formuls of proccedings in the words of the Constitution itsclf, On the other hand it is held that, upon the objec- tion of the majority of eithor House, the vote of any State shall bo excluded from the count. For this thero is no latter of the Constitution ; all that it is based upon isa Joint rale of Congress, having the force of law for the time, ndopted in 1868, and con- tinuing until 1873, and whioh has not been re-enacted, In thnt cnse, oven, the authority of one House to objoct was derived from a rule which had been adopted by both Housea, It recognized no inheront power in cithor House ; but each House derived the power to object from the autliority of both Honses oxpreased in the form of law or rle, No such rule or law uow oxists. It is further vraed that Congress, sitting as a joint body amd not as separate Houses, has, in a mass assomblage, the power, by o majority vote, to determino all questions pertaining to tho eloction, Whichever way the subject is looked at, thore is difficulty, tnd this difieulty arises from tho omission in tho Constitution of any defluite rule on the subject. It will bo seen, Lowover, that the moment there isany de- parture from the strict letter of the Consti- tution thore is no limit to the action of the two Iouses of Cougress, noting jointly or soparately ; and, whon the two Houses fail to unite, then tho confusion becomes intensi- fled, It was clearly never the intontion of the Constitntion to give Congress any power over tho clection of President and Vico-Pros- ident, except in the cnso of the failure of the people to elect, as oceurred in 1801 andagain in 1625, Tho nrgument is that, to give the President of the Benate the exclusive power of counting the votes nud of detormining the result, would be open to abuse, as that officer might himself Lo a can- didate, This Qid not alarm the fram. ors of the Constitution, because at the second election Joun Avasa counted the votes und declared himself olected Vieo-Pres- ident, and four years later counted the votes and declared himself elocted Presidont. At the fourth cleotion JewrrnsoN counted the votes and doclared there was no election, Later in history Oatnous counted the votos and doclared imself eleoted Vice-President; and in 1837 Van Buuex was Vice-Presidont when the vote was counted and ho declaved clectod President. In 1861 BrromiNrivor counted the voto and declared Lincorn clect- od and himself defoated. No abuso or sus- picion of abuse lns ever existed on this point, ' The Ilon, G, . Buckanw, of Pennsyl. vanin, who bns dovoted wuch of his life to tho reformation of elections aud of ropre- suutation, has published a suggestion of a reforin in the modo of electiug Presidonts, which would have the effect, if ndopted, of making the cholco more clearly that of the popular vote than now, and have the effect of abolishing many presont forma which are open to sbuse by frand, .His plan is to amoud the Coustitution aud provide : The cltlzene of each Stato who shall be qualifiel to vote for Representatives in Congroeas shall cast thelr votes for candidates for the Presiduntinlofico by ballot, and proper returns of the voles so cast shall be made, under seal, within ton days, to the Secretary of Stato or othor officor lawfully porform- fngthe dutles of such Busretury fn the Goves ment of the State, by whom the wald returns whall b publicly opencd fu the presence of the Chief Ex. ecutlve Stagletrato of tho State. and of the Chief Justlcs or Judge offtho highest court thereof, and thosald Sceretary, Chlet Magistrate, and Judge ahall ausiun to cach cundldate voted for by o suiticlent number of citlzens s proportionato part of tho . Eleetornl votos to which the State ahall bo entitled, inu mauner followlug, that fatoway: They shall divide tho whote number of the State's Electora) yote, aud the resulting quotient will Ly the Eluc- toral “sutlo for thu State, and whall aselgn o coudldates vated for oue Electoral vote for vach rativ of populsr votes recuived by them ro- spectively, and, {f necessaty, additionsl Electoral yotus for wuccessive laryeat fractions of & ratloshall Lo nasignod to candidutes voted for, untll the whole number of the Electoral votea of the State shiall bo distributed; und the sald ofticers shall therenpon ke up and certlty at leuat thres goucral returns, compristug the popular Yots by countics, parivies, or othier principle dwvisions of the State, und their apportionment of Electoral votes us aforesald, and wall transalt two thescaf, under scul, 1o tho seat of Govermnent of the United States, one directed to the President of the Senate and ono to tho Speaker of the louso of Represcntntives, and a third unsealod roturn shall ho forthwith filed by the sald Seerelary In his ofMce, be recorded there- in, and he at all times open to Inspection. The practienl oporation of this amend- ment would be to brenk up the present sys- tom, by which a small majority in a State controls the whole Electoral vote of that State. For instance, tho Now Ingland States and Now York and New Jersey voted on the 7th of November as follows: Elector. Tilden, alrote, 49, 110 7 88440 13 20, States, Hayes, Musaachuscits, 12 Tthodo Ialand 4 Connecticut..,. [l Hul New York . 522.M9 BN New Jerey.. 115,060 L] KU3,014 038,672 m Of the Electornl votes Hayes got 83 in New England and Tinoex 6, while in Now York and New Jersey 'l'ruoen. got 41 and Hargs none, Under the amendment ns pro. posed by Mr. Buckanew, the Electoral vote of the eight States would have been equitn. bly napportioned sccording to the popular vote in cnoh Btate, as follows : Maine, New Ha hode Inland Cannecticut. ., New York . Now Jersey.on Total,.. The vole in these eight States, instead of being counted ns now, 0 for TiLpex and 33 for Hayrs, wonld then count Haves 44, T DEN 80, and the Electoral vote would repre- sent as nearly as possiblo the vote as ex- prossed at thoe polis, The like difference in tho result would operate for and against each party in the several States, The Democrats would be represonted in Ohlo, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Kansns, and Tows, while the Republicans would hava their full share of the vote of Indinna, Virgiuia, Kontucky, Tennessee, Tox- a8, and all tho Southern States. Every man in the country wonld, no matter whether in the majovity or minority in his State, have his voto coninted in the apportionment of the Elcctoral votes, The Eleetoral Collega would be dispensed with, and the apportionment of tho vote in each State wonld be a mere mat- ter of arithmotic, tho contested point rarely exceading one vote, and at most two votes. In this State, had such a rulo prevailed at the recont election, Peren Coorer would have been nccorded one Electoral vote. We are not propared to sny that this pro- posed amendment to tho Constitution iy the beat or wisest monsuro that can be suggested ; wae present it as one of the reforms suggested for the present method of electing President and Vice-Presidont, Some roforw is needed and should be adopted before tho next Presi- deutial election, or else the troubles of the present ono may be ropeated in perhaps a more nggravated and dangerous form. The Boston Advertiter has suggested n constitutional amondment providing that the Presidential Eloctors shall send their cerlified hists to the Chiof Justice of the Supreme Court ; that he shall open and count them in tho presence of the full Court; that objec- tion to any list may be filed with spocifien- tions by a day cerfain; that before this tribunnl (excopting, if need be, Judges ap- pointed within one or more years) all objee- tions shall be heard, tried, and decided by n day certain, according fo law and sithont appenl. This amendment does not meet the dangera and difficultios that now provall in Louisiana, Florida, and Bouth Carolina, and which ero likely to happen in other States, THE WEST SIDE GOI};;!OMAH’Y AND THE The controversy between the City of Chi- engo and the Peoplo’s Gaslight Compnny hias some remnrkablo fentures, Tho city in 1860 made a contract with that Company to light the street-lnmps of the West Divislon with gus for ten years, the city paying therefor at the rate of 23 per 1,000 feot of gas con- sumed. Thot contract was mado to succeed a provious contrnet mado for ten years in 1859, Owing to the peculinr circumstances of the gas-service in the West Division, there has been for many yonrs 60 conts per 1,000 foct of gas more paid than was paid to the Company supplying the other portions of the city. When the necessity for vetrenchment was forced npon the City Governmont, direct proposaly were mnde to the two Gas Compn- nies, 'Tho city finnlly agreed with the South Bide Company to pny, after Oct. 1, 1876, #1560 per 1,000 feot of gas, juatend of $2.560, which it had been paying under tho con. tract. Smaoller burners were adopted, aud o reformed time-tablo was put in force, thereby saving more than holf the exponse, The samo terms were offerod the West Bido Gas Company, which in turn offored to furnish ges =&t $2 per 1,000 foct, instend of B3, as at present under the contract, snd to ndopt the small burners and the new time-table, which would also cut down tho cost more than half, The Common Council, however, after wasting neveral woeks over the business, rojected tho offer of tha Compnny and ordered the discon- tinuanco of gas and the substitution of oil Inmpy, The Compnauy, falling~back on its contract, applied to the United States Civouit Court for its restraining process, and the Cowrt hins boen henring argmmnents, Judge Druytonn, at the close of the argu. mont ou Wednesday, quite foreibly suggest- el to tho pnrticy that tho case was oue which ought not to have been put in court, It was the duty of the city to light the streets; that was something that had to be done. On tho other haud, the cost of pro. ducing gas had undergono n large roduction sinco tho date of tho contract, That con- tract hail but a short torm more to live, All tho,parties wero deeply intorested in tho wel- {aro of the oity, nudought to be able underall the circumstances to como to an agroomont without the intervention of the Courts. One of the questiots submitted to the Conrt was that of tho power of the Council and Mayor in 1869 to muke a contract extonding ten years, which would bind future Councils, and whother it was in the power of tho oity to troat that coutract as a nullity, Judge Dnumstonn advised that the controversy be sottled by arbitration of in nomo awieablo way, and not compel the Court to dotermine this question of power, We aro sotisfled that tho whole community will ngree with the Court, The matterought to havo buen sottled months ago, aud sottled a4 such o question would have boen settled by any business man in his own caso, Tho Gas Company offerod to make a contraot running until spring at $2 per 1,000 feg$ of gas,—a reduction of one-third,—and tise re- duced burners nccording to tho now time- tuble, 'I'ho eity was payiug, when this offer ‘was mado, an average of b por strect-latup por year. The offvr made by the Company is cstimnted as reducing the avorago cost per lawp from $66 to 21 or $24. The West Side Gas Company refusing to.fnrnish he gns at 8150, or half tho contrnet rates, the Cotnell réjected tho offer that was mado,, and the city has sinco then been consuming gas at the rate of 33 por 1,000 feet, or %35 por aunum for each gns-light in tha streets, In olhor words, bo. enuso the Gas Company would not comply with the 60 por cent demand, but offered 33 per cont reduction, tho Oity Council has in. sisted upon running up a bill twice to threo tines groater than the Company was willing to nceept. The economy, wisdom, or horse- souse of such n proceeding, considering the necossity of®reducing oxpenditnres, is ques- ‘tionnblo, to say the least. The only question involved is one of expense. If the Gas Company would aceept $1.50 por 1,000 faet for the gas, that would be vary well; but the Gns Compnny refusing to do this, but offer- ing to waive tho contract for 33 and take 82 per 1,000 feet, we do not understand the policy of rojecting thiz offer and allowing tho Company to’ continuo to chargs $3 per 1,000 feot. Is not the rofusal of the Council enptious, and is it not open’to the implica- tion of boing trifling? During the mouths in which the Couucil have been rofusing this offer of the Gas Company, bills at tho old rate havo beem accumulating nt more than twico what the Compnny wny willing to ac- cept! . THE EUROPEAN CONFERENCE. The lateat English papers bring additional details of the points likely to be brought up for diseussion in the fortheoming Confevenco of the Powera nt Constantinople. The pre- lininary matters boing settled, the basis for negotintions of peace will be produced, and theso nogotiations will be limited to throe points: firat, tho integrity of . the Ottoman Empiro;, socond, the non-intervention of any single Power for the protection of the Christiang, with the understanding that none of the Powers shall derive nny special influ. ence, political or commoreinl, for itaelf; third, the autonomy of the provinces of Bos- nis, Horzegovina, and Bulgarin, The most important point is the last, and to carry it out itin intimnted that some of the negotin- tors will urge the following' proposals: 1. A goueral disarmamient of the population. 2. Concontration of the Ottomau troops in the strong places. 3. A loeal militia and polico. 4. No irregular troops, and the romoval of the Circnssinns to some Mussulman province. G, The local langusge to be employed in tho cowrts of law. , G. Abolition of tho tithes and taxes to bo nssessed by indigenous offieinls. 7, Ixclusion of non-indigenous oflicials, 8. The Governors to be appointed according to the creed of the majority, as in the Lebanon. Y. A Specinl Commission to inquire into the condition of tho Bulgarinn districts, with the intervention of Messrs, Bamixa, Scnuyrer, and others, 10. An inquiry into the Bulgariau outrages, and the punishment of the real offenders. 11, The direct control on the part of the Powers over the administration, to bo exer- cised by Consular Commissions. With re- gard to the views of England as to these points, the London ZTimes intimates s fol- lowa: Theso are, If minutely particularized and car- ried, extreme corollurles of the propusitions orig- Inally presented by Sie Hexny Ersior In the name of her Mujesty's Government, and they can be Tegitimately comprehended In that wingle word “‘autonomy:" It scems ovident, however, that the Engllsh Government, removed from the press- ure of popular agltation, reconsldercd tho matter, and Jouk now upon these conditious, If offered for the ncceptanco of tho Porte, as In themsclves exor- bitant, In'all probabillty unacceptable, nud, ot all evonty, Impracticablo, Thot would bo no reason why somo of the Powers, and cspocially Ttussia, wny not inslst upon thoeo very terms, declaring that another arrangement in which Turkey might acquiesce would be futllo and nugatury, Fortunately thie viows'of Russia have alrendy been emplatically expressed in tho speech of the Czar replying to Lord Beacoxsrierp, If the programme is fiot ace cepted by the Powers and by Turkey herself, then Russin will undertnke to protect the Christians horself, It is in the light of this decluration, probaljy, that the Zimes has no confidence that tho negotintions will settlo the questions at issue, ns it enys: Tietween England, who scems disposed to accopt from the Turks whatever she cau got, and Russln, who wonld impose by main forco the conditions which Englund hersolf proposod e reasonable, thero wiil probably be no great chunee of a prompt understunding and harmony in the bosom of tho Conferenco; nor 1w it Hkely that any.of the othor Fowurs represented will Lé elther ablo or willing to exerciso sulliclent influence to #ink tho scale on elther sido, That I taitamount to saylng that the Conferenco will como to nuught, and 1t requiresuo very etrong divinatory power to foresce auch o ro- sult, for {t eeeina dmpossible to deny thut unless onels determined to mako the Turks do ay one will, one must bo prepared to let the Turks do as they please, e HENDRIOKS' PILGRIMAGE.

Ex-Sonator Foote, of Mississippl; who is considered n prottygood lawyer, does not ap- ploud the conduct of the Somth Carolina usurping Court. o nays in regard to tho powers of the Canvassing Boanl: Tho Conatitution of the United States in the most explicit manner inveats each of the States with ful vower to appoint Pesidential Electora in such mode os thoy shull choose. The Lribunal estab- liehed by them, by whatever name called, for the purposc of canvassingor scrutinizing the votes cast for Electors, unlees thero shall Lo womo appeal from itx decision, must of necessity have exclusive and flnal power over the subject, and no other tribunal on earth can possibly have anthority to rejudge such declsfon, when once formally render- ed. The attempt of any Court whatover, to inter fero with its actlon Ly injunction, mandamus, or other proceedings, Is ono of tho most unauthorized and abeurd actsof usurpation auy whare on recard, an no lawyer of Intelligence and lonesty would hesitato to deelde.

And yot every ono of theso partisan journals who have examined the legal duties and the powers conferred upon that Retwaning Board know vary well that the Court has no control over thom, and had no right to imprison thom upon the falso pretext that they had committed a contempt, Tho objection to the nction of the Court ix, that thoy have no law to support or justify their conduct, They had no jurisdiction in the case, and no mora nuthority to command the Returning Board thon it has to dictate to the Court how it shalliry eauses. The Boston Adrertiser brings the usurpation homo to the compre- hension of Democrats in this way : Let us supposo that Gov. Havrs ne on tho faco of the returns mado by tho Electoral College a ma- Jority of the votes, mud the Democrats think there was frand i the count of gome of the States, Lut ns suppose that the Democratic Congrens unders takes to prevent tho declaration of Haves and WhrzLen, and to Investigate whether or not thero has been o fraud, Suppose in that emergency couneel for the Republican candidates shonld upply tothe Supreme Court of tho United States forn writ of prohibltion forbidding Congress to act ju- dicially In the mintter, on the ground that the law Inveating them with that power- was In violation of that section of the Conetitution which imposes on the Vice-Presidont the duty of opening the returns and doclaring the Fesult. Supe pose the Court should Issue & wanda- mus communding tho Vice-Prealdent to nggregate the returns from the States as wnade und report them to the Conrt, and when he had done this tho Court should lesue anothor man- damus commanding Wl to doclare tho clection of Hayes and WigeLen in accordnnce with the resuit a8 found by aggregating the returns, and avold, ns “the South Carolina Court hias done, making any de- cislon of the legal question submitted to it.

The samo pacty which 80 strenuously Inafsts that the South Caroling Hoard, fully authorized as it Is Ly tho lawe, shall tako no account of Irauds in Laurcns and Edgefield Countics, Is in the same breath threatening that If Republican Electors aro chosen {n Louislana, Cone gress, without uny law whatover, shall take cogul- znnco of the Lonlslana vote judiclally, and throw it out If it s found to ba talnted, Tho Cincinnati Enquirer, a newspaper whicl, after many thrents and truculent boasts beforo the War, subsequently did valinnt service in the rear, after the manuer of all braggarts, is at its old businesy, In s recent issuo it snys: ** We are notalarmists whon wo say that the situstion this morning is ono which kindlos profound fear. . . . 1In Sonth Caroliua the army dofies the choico of the peoplo and the command of tho Supromo Court. Will the couutry also in. dorse this? If it will, the Republic is no more,” Ob! bosh! Doos the Enguirer think that such bombnstic, stilted, extremo nonsenso as this is palatable to its readers? Does it think that tho public mind s to bo inflnonced by this blowing of trumpets nnd benting of gongs? Does it suppose it is even helping its frionds iu South Carolina by trying to influence their feclings contrary to the wike counscls of Wanz Iaweroy himself, who is urging his supporters to keop the pence and settle the issnes involved by resort to the propor legal authorities? 'The Enquirer kuows woll enough that tho Suprome Court of Bouth Caroling, iuspired by 'Fammauy, a~d actuated by bitter, vindiotive hatred of Gov. CuaxuesLALy, has no mors jurisdiction over the Returning Doard than it Lns over the Logislaturo of IHinols, aud that if any one i3 in contompt and ought toba ju jail it is the Court itself, for interfering in n matter whore it has no nuthority, It sorves | the Enquirer, however, ns a protext for howling -about usurpation and firing the Southern heart, Shouldl it succeod in its pur- poso to proveke an armed collision, it would ba fonnd again in the position in the rear which it filled so successfully during the War of the Reboltion, fighting courageously among the bummers, where thore was no possibility of danger to itself, Probably Wapr Haxrrow hins hiad experienco enough with those fellows to exactly estimato the value of tho servicos of a camp-follower, nnd tha conrage of thoso who fired in the renr in the late War, The Hon, C. B. FarweLL, who has just re- tuyned from Now Orleans, In his luterview with Tus TrivuNe reporter. brings out one point wieh hua not horetofore uttracted sutliclent at- tention, although it has been nientioned I vur New Orleans correspondence, It Is recollected that two years ago the Republicans clabued to have carrded the Loglslature of Loulst- aua; but the Confuderates set up a tro- mendous ery of frand and ballot-box stufl- ng, and, professing to believe thelr own nllega- tlous, cunicluded not to subwmit to thy declared result of tho olection. It will bo vemenbered that they seized the Houso by foree, turned out o dozen Republivan mewmbers, more or less, and seated tho Confederate contestants, and carrled matters with o high hand gouerally, Tney went 6o far os to overthrow the State Guverne ment aud seat o dofeated candidate i tho Gubernatorfal Chalr, Tho President was obliged to send BirentoaN and some natfonal police to Now Orleans to protect the regularly- constituted authoritles, The matter wus brought before Congress, and a Committes of honorable members wero sent to Loufslana, at the hiead of whom was the lato Republican cou didato for Viee-President, Mr. W.

After hearlng o reghnent of witnesses, this WiegLes Committes patched up & compro- mise pedee by turning ons the Republicun mem- Lera fu the contested parishes and giving thelr seata to tho Confederntes upon the gronnd<of frauda perpetrated by tho Returning Boanl. Sluee then tho whole Democratie press has de- nounced the WerLs Returning Board as dis- honest vilialng, and KeeNAN, editor of the Cht- eago Times, has telegraphed frantic and blood- thirsty messages to the Confederates ** to clean out the keoundrels » right off.

It shiould be managed, however, wisely and judiclously; the experience of other clides carefully taken under conshleration. In dolug this, the Boards of Public Works should select citles of the same population, and hence the same wants, as the die in which they Intend to bufld the works, Most large cities have long since constructed claborato svetems of water-works, and, with the thousands of° water consumers, it s not sur- prising that “debts fucurred for wnter-works are a rellef and not a burden,” But the mis take made by the able casnylst in the Atlanticls in illusteating this kind of indebtedness with {nstances of large citles only, and not polnting out the hundred cases on the other hand fu which citles have become burdened with debt for water-works that do not pay running ex- penses, In somo of those Instances the money lias been unwisely expended, aud o more gepen- sive syetem than the wants of the conununity demanded hins too frequently been the result of this unwisdom. *Tur Trisysn has taken palns to find out the financial standing of the water- works of twenty elties of from 5,000 to 50,000 inhabitants, These clties’ wero selected indls- criminately from different States, which make the following figures more [nstructives: oD o Al Annal A e ‘exp’ne fec'pts. vipe. C.ts. Jackson . a1 400,000 10, 221,752 '89,000] It will be seen ot o glance that out of twenty cltlcs selected In this way nine of them, Jackson, Kalamuzoo, Duyton, Lockport, La Porto, Spring- field, Norwalk, Syracuse and Rockford, are not realizing from water rents sufllefent revenuo to pay their ruuning expenses; while on the other band, with the throe exceptions of Binghame ton, Marquette, aud Auburn, the annual* re- celpts of the ten remaining citfes are but little over and above tho current expenscs. But ‘further still. Wo find the cost of tho Bing- bamton water-works 8189,000; the annual ex- pense about $6,720; aunual receipts, about $15,000. In round figures the recelpts over and sbove the expenditures nre $0,000, or 5 por cent on the money luvested, Thisls o falr In- vestment, it the protection afforded against fire is taken [uto consideration. Again, the Auburn works pay, beeause they are run by water and not by steam, and the result {s an anpual in- terest of over G per cent upon the mouney fu- vested, after the currunt oxpenses have been pald. It Is highly lmportant that works of* this kind should be ran by water whenever prac- ticable. The Marguette svatem of water-works puy botter still, according to tho amount of | money invested (881,000),—about 83 per cont above running expenses. Rockford, Ill., has Just completed un expensive system of wator- works, costing 3250,000, and the most sanguine only look forward to the time when tho revenuo will exeeed tho running sxpenscs and keep up repafea, It will bo obacrved that Peorls, o city which Justly boasts of aflne system of water- works aud of & fire record second to no city of 1ts sizo fn the world, does not realize much over 1 per cent on the $500,000 invested. Theso facts arc not presented with a view to discourage clties about to bulld water-works, but rather to farnish statistical informuation that will b of valucto those suon to embark iu such enter- prises.
