Inaddition to the suspension of businees and the greneral festivities of the New-Year tide, the people indulzed i thelr municipal clections, which, by uct of Parliament, are held on the firast Monday in each year. A munleipal elec- tion s a questlon of vital Iuteregt—or at least it seems 10 be—to every fnhabitant of the munic- pality. Rich and poor are all allke * enthused* oser It and, no matier where thestrauger zoee, he hiears nothing but talk about voters and enn- didates, . Asarule, uatjonnl politics is not brought into municipal affatrs, although there ls a growing dizposition on the part of many who are curolled in the ranks of the Conecryative party to mako all lssues subject to the deciston of the ballot-box purely political questions, nui thus hold the successful party responsible for the ndministeation of affalrs, To o moderate extent this platform was adapted at the clection I this eity, though without any organized effort to effect it.

Views Hold by Statesmen at the Time of, nnd Subsequent to, the Adoption of tho Coustitution. 7o the* Editor of The Tridune. Cnicaco, Jan, 10.—The argument of that cminent Jawyer, the Hon, W. 11 West, on the powers and dutles of - Congrees (n the counting of the votes returned by the Electoral College, baged rolely upoun the language of the Constitu- tion ftself without reference to precedents, niust mitlsfy every candld nind that It was never contemplated to confer upon Congress the vast powers of o Returning Boanl for the canvassing and rejection of Electoral votes by which a 8tate may bo arbitearily deprived by a partisun majority of all participution in the c¢hofee of a Chiel Executive, miuch less that it was intended Lo confer such powers upon a sin- gle branch of the Legislative Depurtinent of Government, The assumptlon of the De- mockacy that this power rests with the ouse of Representatives is subversive of the principles which were recoguized and accepted by the lead- Ing men and by an overwhelming majority of the people at the time of the formation of the Constitutlon. Thus, happily, does the logzieal discuseion of the lawyer of the intent rnd meaning of the language of the Constitu- tion harmonize with the views of those who Iabored for its adoption and fmmediately there- after actively participated in the GGovernment. The writlngs of Madison, and Hamilton, and Jeflerson are Lhe best sources of Informatlon as to the principles which underlie the Consti- tutfon. Those who aro not famlliar with their political discussions, and are Inclined to accept the new creed of the Tilden Democracy, would do well toconsult them. My purpose s not to quote them here, but to refer to the discussion 1n the Benate In the year 1800 on a bill * pre- scrlbing the mode of deciding disputed elece* tlons for’ President and Vice-President of the United Btates.” Keeping In view the character of our Govern. ment,—that it is neither wholly national nor wholly sederal,~It {s clear that s settlement of the preseht Presidentlal dispute, by ylelding to tuelloure of Represcntatives the powors claimed for it, would Le a wide -and revolutionary de- parture from constitutionul principles. 1f it had been fntended to elect a Presldent Ly n direct vote of the people, then in case of o tio or flagrant frauds vitlating the vote, the llouse of Representa- tivos, derlving its puwers from the people, might very properly eleet, Butln the ona contlngency in whileh the Constitution provides for an elee- tion by the House the feleral fdea obtalns and the vote §s taken by States, To preserve the Independence of the Exceutive, care was taken to restrict the action of Congress to aminlsterfal duty, whickt certainly for the first quarter of the'ventury was carefully observed, We can- not Lo much admire the wise conservatism ob- ecrved by the framers of the American Constitu- tion, and we should punder well the effect before venturing on uny untricd scheme, Tho propo- eal now tmade to eliminate the power of the benate~tho bady rmp«'rly representing the Btutes, a majority of “which have alrea:ly voted for ony candllate—1s the most dangerous ever put forward even by the Democracy, Underthe Cunstitution, thy President derives lis appoint- ment from tho States, sl every four years is sccountable to them. Let ua not losw alizht of this principle, which Madisou, applvlng it tothe Benate, the representative of the Rtutes in their individual eapacity, sald s the anchor of our sufety, In the uct of 1702 Congress did not venture to assert any extrsordlnary powers. In the year 1800 un attemnpt was ‘made to leg- islate on'the subject of Preaidentil clecttons, the bill Introduced, and whiely passcd the Sen- ate by a very small majority, providing for the appointment of a new trfbunat (styled the Graud Committee) by the two [ouaes of Con- wrresy for the clection of a Presldent. This bill fell Inta the liands of Mr, Madlson, and in a let- ter to M, Jeilerson ho referred to it du the ol Towing lunteunge: ** 418 not to be denled that the Coustitution might bave been properly more tull i preseribe Ing the electlon of resident and Vice-Presi- dent; but the remedy s un smendinent, to the Coustitutlon, and not leglslative nterference.

Did they not know how easy it was “to rafac ob- Jectlons against the votea of particular clections, and that fn determining upon these it was more than probable the members would recollect thelir siaes, thelr favorite candidute, anid some- times thelr own intereats? Or must they not have supposed that, in putting the ultimate and fiual decielon of the Electors in Congrees, who were tu deelde Irrevocably and without appealy they would render the Prestdent their cregture nd prevent his assuming and cxercising “that independence in the performance of his dutles upon which the gafety and honor of the Govern- ment must forever resti”? The mast dispaseionate argument drawn out in this dehate was made by Mr. Baldwin, of Georgin. Tean only give a’single extract, ns follows: ** He did not agree with the gentleman from Massacliusctts (Mr, Dexter) that the clouse at the close of the elghth section of the Constltu. tlon, which gives to Congress power to pass all Jaws necessary and proper to carry fnto effect the foregoing powers of that rection, and all other puwers vested by the Constitution in the Government of the United States, or fn any de- rnrlmcnt or oflicer thereof, could be extended 4 this casc; that speaks of tho use of the pow- era yested by the Constitution—this resolution (LI relates to the formation of acompetent and “cazential part of the Uovernment itaclfy that speaks of the movements of the Government nfter {t s organized; this relates to the Executlve ~ branch, and s therefore clearly a coustitutioual waork, and 1o be done, i atall, fn the manner pointed aut by the Constitution, by projosing an article of ‘smendment to the Conetitution on that subject. flls own opinion, however, was, what hie had hefore stated, that the pro- vislons on this subject wery already sufficlent that all the questions which had been surgestes were as ea {t to the deciston of the assemblies of Blectors, as of any body of men that could he devised; aml that the members of the Seuate amd of the House of Representa- tives, when et tozether in one room, should recetve the act of the Electors aa they would the act of any other constitutlonal, branch of the Government, to fudee only of its authentiea- tion, and then to proveed t0 count the votes, as directed fn the second article of the Consti- tution.” In conclusion, and In further rupport of the view tiat the opening of the certificates and counting of the votes transmitted {8 tmerely n minfsterial duty, Lremark that this s declured in au amendment proposed to the bil) under discussions and that tie appolntment of tellers onthe purt of the two [louses does not take from the Presldent of the Senate any power, or give to the two Houses any power to go behind the returns, as wituess the followlng languaze cinploved by My, JelTerson In 1504, in certifying to his own election (there having been tellers on the part of both Houses): Ne it known, ‘etc., cte,, (he underwritten, Vice- Preslient of the United States and Presldent of the Nenate, did, In the prescnce of rald Senate and Houre of Hepresentatives, open all of the certifi- catca and count all the rofes of the Electors for n Provident; wherespon it apreared that Thomas Jeferson. of Vircinla, and Aaron Burr, of New \'lurk, ‘Ilnd amajority of the votes of the Electors, ete., ete, Thut ought to he zood enough authority for our Deinoeratle friends. 4 Wintiam Hexny Ssurn. s wus— A STEREOPTICON SHOW.
