The annual festival of good eheer and gratitude fs here again, bringing with it its full: mensure of pleasant things and over- flowing opportunities for the glving of thanks to the Creator of all good. Tha area of "Thanksgiving has widely increased during 8 fow years past. Its Puritan origin Is no louger abar to {ts general observutice, and {ts celebration Is no longer confined to New England, The men and tho Ideas of New England have spread to the most Western Hilts of the country, and they have curried with them the Influences and beneficent re- sults growlng out of tle heritage of Purltau- ism and eliminated from its bigotries and nusterities, and among all thelr associations not one is more grateful or graceful than that of Thanksgiving, which thoy have intro- duced wherever they haye planted school- house or church, So Chicago will to-day alt down to Its well-basted turkey and plum- pudding as cheerlly and go to tho sanctunry with ag thankful on heart for blessings re- celved a3 Boston, and fanilly circles will bo rountted at the well-luden board with as full hearts and with as merry cheer as may be found in the most grateful locality among tha New England hills and rocks, 1t cmplnsizes tho blessings of this anniver- anry that there was never o Thanksglving- Dany before that entalled more reasons to be thankful, Never did a year pour out more blessings from its horn, never was ong crowned with more mereles or richer In grace, First and forgmost of all, thore ts enuse to be profoundly grateful that In the face of Southorn bulldozing, ballot-box stull- ing and terrorlaing, ond of Northern fraud and forgery and porjury, the Kepubtlean ticket was successful, and the Government hus been saved for another four years from the Confederates of ono section and the Doughfaces of another. ‘The people have risen In thotr might, and by an almost un- preeedented majority liave thwarted: the unprineipled, despernte conepirators in thelr unholy. scheme to zu upon power, and adinintster It In the Interests of 0 niinority, who place the authority of the State as paramount to that of the Nation, State-soverelgnty has received a crushing blow, ‘She Sulld South has been split from ond toond. ‘Mie honesty, Intelligence, and patrlotisin of the North have been vindleated, ‘The Democratic party {3 naw In a stunned If nut moribund condition, ‘The church aud tho school-house haye conquered, and the eonthianee of prosperity, order, peace, goad Qovernment, and respect for law fs assured, Itlsavietory pregnant with beneficent re- sults fy the future, and for what hus been, is, and will be lot ug be thankful, Reviewlng the events uf the year, thore fs every reason to bo thankful for the material prosperity, the development of resources, and the glowing outlook’ ahead within our borders, We are a Nation of fifty millions of people, grown In a single century from ‘Total three millions, at peace with all the world, blessed with abundant success, and busily. at work preparlng the way for n still more successful future, Theearth has ylelded abundant harvests to tha hus- baudmay, enough te provide for our own wants, aud a surplus of bread and meat, and ayen of some of the Juxtrics ns well as of the staples of Ife te send abroad to those couns tries which avery yeur find themselyes de- lickent, Business of all kinds has Increased In extent and profit, Every man iy -ut work at good wages. ‘The tramp lias nearly ceased his wanderings, for no man need beg who Is. willing to work, -Our railroads and ships are ail busily employed transporting exchanges of goods, Money ts plenty, Property los stagnant Is Increasing fa value.

But Uhio tas nt least twenty gentlemen who have expressed a wililngness to go to the Senute, and who have decided objections to the election of Mr, Sheramn to tit place. Mr. Sherman hag been continuously for thirty years in public Mfe, and, considering the reenndhty of statesinanslilp in Obto, the snutber of men who have grown up tn that time, nnd who do not want to wait until the Sherman family dies out, Is not perhaps so SUrprislig.

The workd hag moved rapiddy In that time, and If the country lias moved faster at tines than he has, he ting never failed to do his best.us well as hte could. Though lacking In inany of tho elements of personal popularity, his tntegrity has commended hin ‘to people who disiiked him personally and shave condemned = his __policles, As Secretary of the ‘Treasury he has perfonned the duties ably, aud while sone of Ils fiseal notions have beon wild and strange, as, for Instance, his hostility to silver and his scheme to domonetize the greenbaeks, even these hive been overlooked beenuse of his Inability to sustain them, even if ho at heavbapproved then. ‘The country, esti mat- ing Mr, Sherman at hls trie vatue, would have no objection to his remaining tn his present place, and certainty would prefer Alm to any other person inexperienced in general politics and apt to think more of hls own opinions sud the opinions of ils class than would bo safe to the country and to the public interests, . DEFECTS IN. THE ELECKORAL SsYs8TEM.

In fact, nhnost every Presidential election reveals dectded aud oven serious defects, ‘There were several ineldents tn the lute elcetion that serve to Mustrate the fault hess of choosing Electors who shall in turn choose the President, ‘The logsof an Elector to the Democrats, who carried California, by seratchlngeand of another Yy a blunder to the Republicans, who carned Indlana, ave enses In polit. i In California the defeat of Torry was due. to personal unpopularity, Among the snail mijovity who yoted thy Democratic teket {n that State there ‘were ‘enough who re- membered ‘Terry's: proylous politleal career, and who on that account refused ta.wote for him for any ofilee, te reducy his vote below tho lowest vote enst for’ any Elector on the Repudlican ticket.

Among them the follo wing are the thosl odylous: 4, ‘Tho intervention of Presidential Eleet- sors in person fs a fletion, "Phe theory is. that each State shall cast a certaln number of Mlestoral votes, to be determined by the Congressional apportionment. ‘Phese yotes ean be enst without. the appointment of Electors, ‘The meeting of the Int ter Ins become altogether: unnceessary, since thelr votes are ‘predetermined by: the popular yote of the State. A proper rection for the useertainment of the vote for President from cavh State would serve the same ‘purpose that the appointinent of Electors by popular vote now serves, and the former plan would avoid the aeeldents, blunders, and, personal resontinents which bow endanger the logs of om or more Elvet- orsto the party in majority at any time, and thus threaten defeat of the popular will, 2 ‘The constitutloual provision whieh now disqualifies an Elector when he hots over s0 unimportant a position under tle Gov- emmment has been rendered useless by the party obligations now huposed upon every nian whe isechosenasat Etector, Theorlglval theory of tho present system was that the peoply should select a ntunber of men who would use their own discretion in the choles of President, On this nccount It was destra- ble that these who were tutrusted wilh such 8 serious responsibility should be free from the entanglements and Influcnees of Goyern ment ollie, But the enuetts system has changed allthis, Every Elector now appolnted ig bound by the most: srered obligations to vote for tho particular candidate whonr his party has previously nominated, No Elector would now dream of disregarding thls party direction.

Ibis evident thas tho National Govorn- ment should exercise more immediate con- trol over the elections {n the various States so far ag Nattonal offiees are involved. An illustration of this 1s afforded In Indiana by tho loss of 8,000 inajority awlng to seme local negligence or fault, Had the logy of so many yotes through the blunder or perfidy of State ofleers deprived the Republican candidate of tho yote'of Indlana which the people have given him, It would seem that the United States Government has no power to set aside auch Injustice, If that be true, then the peo- plo of the entire country are constantly at the mercy of careless or Intriguing State ofticers over whom they cannot exerelse direct con- trol, Itt ilghly important that thore shall ben complete and searehing revision of the entlre Elcetoral system, If the present Congress shall not be willlug to take hold of Ry the matter wHI furnish proper material for con- shleration at an extra session of the Congress whieh has just been elected, CENTATN members of the Social Arb Club of Piihitelphia engaged in tho pastime of bet- tig un the elcation.
