The Prestdent was forced by the determi- nation of tho Democratic majority In Con- gress to ngiin discuss tho propriety of repeal- ing the laws of Congress providing menus for au honest National electlon and the preserva- tion of the pence at tho clectlons for mem bers of Congress. 3 ‘The present National Election law provides that the several Murshals of the United States shall, under certain elreumstances, appoint such Deputtes as may be required to enferee the regulations for a free anit pence- ful election, and for an honest eleetion and returns, Tho Democrats in Congress for several years haye been attempting to repeal this Election Jaw, and have undertaken to do this by placing “riders” on appropriation bills, These riders the President has been compelled to voto, and Congress last it adjourned without passing any appropria- tions for the Marshals, bechuse the President would not permit them to render the Na- tional Election law abortive by n proviso stuck to an appropriation bill, At the present session, Senator Bayard, of Delaware, introduced a bill taking fromthe Marshals the power of appointing Deputies, and yesting that power in the Untted States Courts. At present the Marshals are respon- sible for their Deputies, and the Marshal ts the head of the foree. Unter Bayard’s bill tha Deputy Marshals would be an Irre- sponsible body, wider no head, and be a, special force unknown to the law and inde- nendent of the recognized executive ofllcor: of the courts, ‘The President vetoed this bad bill, In so doing he called the attention of Congress to the opinion of the Suprenie Court in whiclt the constitutionnlity of the Election Inw was sustained. Le pointed out. the necessity of such a law, and that tho objection to such a nw was founded oun misconception of the relative powers and duties of the National and State Governments, and he quoted witt. great forco the following statement from the reasoning of the Supreme Court: ‘The greatest difticutty in coming to a just conclusion arises from mistaken notions with regard to tho relations which subsist botwoun - tho State and Natlouu!

Itecomsto ‘be often overlooked that « National Constituuon has been adopted In this country, establishing a real Government theroln, and whiob, morcover, fs, or should be, as dear to avery American citl- zen ashls State Government fs, Whenever tho true conception of the nature of this Govern- ment ig once conceded, no rent diticulty will aitise in tho Just interprotation of its powor, Dut, if we allow ourselves to regard 16 na a hus. tile organizution opposed to the proper. sovereignty and dignity of the Btate Gov- ernmenta, wa shall continuo to bo yexed with diiiicuitics us to jurisdiction and fu. thority.

Js the wish fathur to thy thought? Tho ox-Hoss’ personal organ sees au enemy be- hind every stump, and insinuates darkly that tho Republican party !s about to encounter defeat, It puts Conneetlceut and Oregon in tho list of doubtful States, and says: ' Let him Jose Now York and Oregon, and recelye nonld from the South, and Garfleld, with Jndiona for him, will have only 184 Etvotoral votes”; and adds: “But should Garfield carry New York aud lose Indiana and tho close States of 1670, the situation of affairs would be no better,” ‘The organ ts very king to polnt out two ronds to cortaln defeat. But suppose the Republican party decides to take nelthor of them? tha nominations have been received by tho muisses of Republicans is an’ car- nest of victory. ‘The signs are ausplclous, As the ‘nomination of Garficld was flashed over the wires, 8 great shout of satls- fuction went up from ony end of the country to tho other, ‘he nomination was univer sally regarded as the happlest possible issue out of a bitter and unfortunate personal con- test andasan omon of triumph. It evokod a degree of enthusiasm unlooked for in the event of the success of either of the rlyat candidates, ‘Tho name of Garileld proved a powerful one with which to conjure; and In shouting {t fortli Republicans. everywhere: became jubilant, From that day to this the Repudlican party has beon holding a love- fenst, at which congratulations have been ox. changed with the hoartlness of high courage and hopeful contidence, Mas any faction buen - absent from those love-feasta? “And Ifso, what faction? And If the Grant faction has held aloof from rojolclug, why has it sulked In Its tent?. Says tha organ: “ The Democrats ure preparing ta do their best, and the Re- publican.who cannot now goa the need of steps to harmoulze and encourage all fac- Uons of the party does not realize all the gravity of the altuation, or ts willing to take the chances of defvat.”- So |t-appeara that be equally respested, Both nro cexential to tho | ‘The manner in which. thore Isa faction to bo “ harmonized”; and itis platnty the Grant faction, In the estina- tlon of the organ, that must bo dosed with soothing-alruyl Tt ia a little odd, though, (hat the demand for ‘steps to tiarmontza'” should bo profaced with mennes of defeat. “Let Garileld lose New York and Oregon,” exclnins the organ, “and he fs defeated "1 “And If he should carry Now York, and lose Indiana and tho close States of 1876," adds tho cronkor, he tg still defeated "{ Then comes thy condition of the threat of defedt, “Steps must’ be taken to harmonize and “encournge all factlons .of the party." Who wants to be “harmonized,” nnd how dogs he want to be harmonized? Who wants to be “encouraged,” and how does he want to be encottraged?

If somebody Is Yo bo “harmonized,” it Is necessary to know both who he is and what, will “harmonize” hin. We doubt, how- ever, If the organ speaks for anybody except itself. And we beg to know, therefore, upon what condition it will agres to support the nominees of tho” Republican Convention? ‘What will “harmonize” the Inter-Occant? CARTER HARRISON'S MISSION. Mr. Carter Harrison has shown himself conspicuously spiicitous about the nomina- tlon of Mr. Iloratio Seymour a€ Cincinnati. Ife has recently made nm personal visit to Deerfleld,—Seymour’s home,—with the avowed purposu of ascertaining whether or not Mr, Seymour will necept the nomination. According to nll accounts, tho visit lag not beon highly satisfactory, but Mr, Harrlaon _is represented ng saying that hebelieved Soy- mour will accent, and that he (Harrison) is golpg to Clucinnat! todo all Levan to pro- eure the nomination for Seymour, Mr. Harrison Is known to bo warmly de- voteil to the interests of the Demoeratic party, and wo donot doubt that he has convinced himself that Seymour is the strongest candi- date the Democrats can run, and that he ought to be nominated ' will-he, nill-he,”, It is just possible, however, that Mr, Harrison nny have reached this conviction by a lincof argument not entirely disussocinted from personal considerations, ‘Indeed; we lave’ heard an explanation of Mr. Marrison'’s wn- usual devotion to Seymour's interests, which’ runs somothing in this wise: Mr. Harrison was s candidate for the Demo- ‘erntle nomination for Governor In this State, Ilo was not successful. For some renson vest known to itself, the Convention pre- ferred nn ex-Hepubfican and author of tho Reconstruction acts, Judge Trumbull. But Mr. Harrison Ig represented as indisposed to accept the verdict of the Con- yention os finnl, The Gubernatorial beo is buzzing in his bonnet, and continues to buzz, He -is represented as having ma- tured an Ingonlous program for lifting ‘Trum- bull out of his way. ‘This program Includes tho nomination of Seymour: for President to prepare the way for the nomination of ‘Trum- bull for Vice-President. ‘This would lenvo a vacancy at tho heat of the Democratic Stato’ ticket in {Hinols which Mr. Harrison Is con- fident he can fll, with tho consent and nssist-,, nnco of the Domveratic State Central Come; inittos, & “There {is reason to bellove that Mr, Trum- bull himself. {sno}, averse to the program: which Harrison Igsald to have outlined. The main inducement. 1 out to Trumbull to Jend the forlorn hope in this State as 8 enndidate for Governor was, that the nomination would ald his chances for the Presidential prize at Clnelnnatl It 1s safo to assume that, if Mer, ‘frumbull cannot obtain the nomination for the first piace at Cincinnatl (a contingency which must ba admitted to bu very remote), ho will be gind to tnke the second place, Small as his chanco “will be to be elected Vice-Prest- dent as tha candidate of tha Domocratic party, it will bo infinitly bettor than his chance for election ‘as Governor !n this State, It is altogether likely, thereforo, tint he wilt not seek to put any obstacle in the way of Marrison’s alleged project. Itis a protty plan which Harrison has de- ised, if {¢ can be entrled out; but it may well be doubted whather Gov. Soymour will bo influenced to. accept n nomination he docs not want in order to enable Mayor Marrigon to run for Governor of J)Inols, = TILDEN OR SEYMOUE. The two central figures in the Democratic party just now are Samuel J. Tilden and Ho- ratio Seymour, -f New York, ‘here seems to bon general hnpression thet one or the othor of theso gentlemen muy be the Demo- cratic nominog, but there Js an equally gen- eral misconception as to the relative uttitude occupied by these two gentlemen.” On the one hand, ft fins been assumed by tho Democrats that Mr, Seymour wl necept the nomination, notwithstanding ils: ad- vanced ago and his great physieal {ntirnities, if hacan get It, This cunvietion is based primarily upon tho Incapacity of the avernge Democrat to conceive of any inan’s dectining any oftics that mry be offered to him when ho ts out ofa place, The convictlon has also gained strongth, perhaps, from the fact that Seymour ence before accepted a nonitnation for tho Preatdency after personally declining itin convention, . It ‘must bo remembered, howover, that Mr.; Saymour- was then tyelya years younger thay he Js now, and was enjoying: good “health, and that he had no reason at that tine, as ho now has, to apprehend that the excite went of tho campaign would bo fatal to him, It turns out, tuo, that Mr. Seymour lias do- Uborately shut himself out from temptation by writing the following etter to the dete- gato from his own district to the Cincinnall Convention: .

Democratic Houro of Repro- sentatives hayo put themsolyes on record to this offect, ‘The same doctring has been pro- inulgated by all the Demaoralic Conventions thathave been held slnco that time, The charuo is counted upon as one of tha most effective appeals that can be made for Demo- ctatle anecess in this yenr’s Presidential elec-_ tion. Mence Mr. ‘Titden contends that the Democrats cannot now desert the man who has been thits defrauded without voluntarily becoming.a party to the conspiracy agalnst him, 11e ctalms that any Democrat accopt- ing the nomInation belonging fo him would simply follow the exampla set by Rutherford |. B. Mayes. . Ile Insists that, to be elther con- aletent or fair, the Democratle Convention {3 bound to tender him tho nomination, and tint nll other alleged cnndidates should unite inn letter to the Convention “withdrawing tholr'names and presenting that of the man whorh tho people elected.” 7 From na Democratic polnt of viow this argument fs unanswerable, If Tilden was elected and “swindldd ” out of his place, as tho Democrats contend, ther he fs certainly entitled to ft, ff he wants It, in preference to any and overy other man in the country, If .the Democrats insist that this is true, they cannot depriva him of the opportunity of regaining tho position he lost through the alleged “fraud” of the &to-7 Comunission without assuming coequal responsibility with: the Republicans for that alleged “fraud? If they decline to nominate TIl- den, the ery of “frand” will bo turned against them. They will not even be allowed tw abandon it. The 'Tiiden wing of the Dem- ocratic party will keep it up, and chargo upon the ruling faction a participation tharein. Tho American people should do given an opportunity to pass upon this charge of fraud. The Republicans have not renom- uated the man who ia sald to havo usurped the place belonging to Tilden, because Mr. Hayes declared from the first that he would not be a candidate for retilec- tion, But thoy havo nominated Gen, Gar- ficld, who was a member of the Electoral Commission which: awarded tho office of Presidont to Mr, Mnyes, This will make tho ixsue clear, with Mr, Tilden as the opposing candidate. Tho people can thon decide, el- ther by electing Tilden, who claims that he wag chented, or by electing Garfield, who was one of the alleged conspiracy that deprived him of the ofiice, whether or uot thera was frautlou the part of the Republicans four years ago. If tho Democrats refuse to nom- innte Tilden’ under these efroumstances, It will show that they have uo. faith in the “fraud? issue which they haye harped upon during the last tres years, - If they nom{- nate Seymour or any other candidato, but Tilden,.they may expect the antagonism of ail men In thelr party who really belleve that ‘Tiiden was the victim of 0 fraud which will thus have beon condoned or denied by thi Democratie party Itself, .

On the whole, how- ever, none of the accusations equals iy in- portance the fearful allegation that ho once engaged Inasocial gaine of “draw” at five centa ante, ' ‘This will shock the country, ‘This will lift the Republican purty off Its feet, ‘This will, indeca, be what the Demo- crate call “ammunition? Tu view of the very lively pace at which the emnpaign has opéned, and ‘the number and variety of “charges” already on hand, wo suggest to the Domocrats at Cincinnatl tho Appointment of n committee to codify tho whole business, and put {tin shape for fall use Many of the “chatmes” contradict each. other.

Now, it ts ovident there must bon jittle moro harmony In the charges.
