WASHINGTON. ‘CONTINUED FROM THIRD PAGE. ‘@lnois, had charge of the bill, and after presenting im the House, with a very plausinle @atement, shut off all debate and all op Pertunity for an exposure of its real character by calling the previous question. On his Mr. Holman moved to lay the bill on the table, ‘whieh was defeated by a small majority, and then the opponents of the measure began to filibuster by making dilatory motions and calling the yeas ‘amd nays, when the House, at half-past four B’clock, adjourned, The bill comes up as the first business to-morrow morning after the morning Aour, when it will doubWess pass. et Meeting. Secretary Boutwell, though still suffering from a very severe influenza, was in attendance at the Cabinet meeting to-day. All.the Departments were represented. The Philadelphia Mint a Treasury Bureau. ‘The Senate amended and passed ‘Sherman's bill, under which the Mint, which was left behind at Philadelphia when the gencral government Migrated here, is to be made a bureau of the ‘Treasury Department. Of eourse there will be ‘the usual staff of clerks, female copyists, messen- gers and laborers, that every head ef a bureau has, with # horse, carriage and driver for his use. M@hese bureaus are springing up too rapidly, and gre an expensive luxury. Another Hearing tor Simon’s French Spolfation Bill, ‘The ancient Cameron, who 1s jubilant over his wertain re-election next Tuesday, indulged in a regular “walk around” just beiore the Senate ad- Journed to-day, because he could not get some day mext week set apart for the consideration of his French Spollation Ciaims bill At last, to appease fhe old chieftain, next Wednesday week was given him, provided no appropriation bill is in the way, land he went over to Whitney’s in @ tranquil frame of mind, The Activity of the Naval Ring. ‘The bill for building ten new sloops-of-war, either @f weed or of iron, at the Navy Yard or by contract, 4s to be taken up in the Senate on Monday. Sena- tors who enjoy the confidence of the admfnistra- tion are very anxious that this bill be epacted at the earliest possible moment. The Secretary of the Navy, who is above suspicion, says that our Mavy caunot be strengthened too soon. Itis also these intimate with the Secre' of State ‘thet bis son-in-law is at the bottom of the latter- day diplomacy, having an eye to the shipbuilding iterests about New York. So great a cenundrum not been erences for many aday. What does all this mean’ Whe Use of Customs Warehouse Permits. ‘The Secretary of the Treasury has issued a cir- ealar to Collectors of Customs providing that per- mits issued on the entry of goods in warehouses for consumption must be presented to the store- ‘Keeper in charge of the warehouse within thirty ~@aya, otherwise the permit shail be cancelled, ‘The Kansas Senatorial Investigation. The Senate Committee on Privileges and Elec- tions to-day did nothing in the Caldwell investiga- tion, owing to the non-ariival of ex-Governor Carney and other witnesses who were expected from sas, and adjourned until to-morrow. Reduction of Postage. ‘The House Post Office Committee to-day unani- mously authorized General Farnsworth, the Chair- man, to prepare a bill to reduce letter postage to two cents, and require prepayment on all printed Matter except on weekly pape:s circulating in the ‘counties where they are printed; these to be unal- fected by the propose! bill. An estimate irom the Post Onice Vepartiuent shows that $1,400,000 are annually lost on account of postage on printed matter being uncollected or contiscated by post- Masters. Life-Saving Stations at Capes Hatteras Henry. Acting Secretary of the Treasury Richardson to- @ay addressed the foliowing letter to the Hon. 8, SBhellavarger, Chairman of the Committee on Commerce :— Sm—I have the honor to acknowledge the re- eeipt of your communication of the 14tm inst., en- closing a copy of H. K. bill, 169., authorizing the cou- Struction oO! life-preserving stations between Cape Hatteras, N.C., and Cape Heury, Va, and request- ing iniormation and recommendations in reference thereto. The ovject o1 the bill meets with my hearty approval, and is in accordance with the ‘Fecommenuution contained in the annual report of the Secretary of the Treasury tor the year 1872; but the sum proposed to be appropriated will @earcely be suificient for the purpose intended. The distance irom ,Cape Heury to Ca; Hat- teras is 125 statute miles, and the line of beaches, beginning at a point fiiteen miles south of Cape Henry, is separated trom the mainiand by a svstem of broad sounds and ‘Water courses similar in many respects, but ot Coster extent, to those upon the coasts of Long laud and New Jersey, and which render necessary & close proximity of life-saving stations. ‘The ‘coast provided for in the bill is well known to be dangerous, and many disasters hawe occurred tween the capes named. It deserves the protection of the goverument almost equally with the coasts of New Jersey and Long Island. The Iile-saving ‘Stations to be useful, whether for the purpose of rescuing —— from Stranded vessels or affording shelter those who may effect their owa escape and land na shore destitute o! habitation, should be on coast not more than five miles apart; there- fore not jess than twenty-five rtutions would seem to be necessury, and the cost of establishing and Sinan Vat numoer will reach the sum of i ‘The James River and Kanawha Canal Scheme. The House Committee on Commerce met at Wil- Jard’s Hotel this evening to hear Colone) R. W. Hughes, of Virginia, who made an argument in favor of an appropriation for James River and Kan- a@wha Canal. He sald the people of Virginia were ‘unwilling this great work should fall into private bands. They doubted the power of private means to complete it, Re showed from surveys that the work is feasible, and will aford un- interrupted communication between the Ohio River and the Atlantic Ocean. The total cost of the work would be $60,000,000, of which Virginia and West Virginia have already expended $10,0.0.000, which the delegation propose shali be ceded to the United States. He ciaims irom oficial statistics that the canal would place the cereals of the West 4m the markets of the world without materially in- teriering with seaboard value. FORTY-SECOND CONGRESS. SENATE. WaAsninaton, Jan. 17, 1873, ‘The dill to pay $18,000 to the county of Ontario, RM. Y., was passed, Mr. Scmunrz, (rep.) of Mo., called ap THE VIENNA EXPOSITION BILL. ‘The pending question was on Mr. Carpenter's ‘@mendment appropriating $300,000 to complete he Washington monument. Mr. CaRPENTER, (rep.) of Wis., said he had been Anformed that it was doubtful whether the monu- ment could ever be completed, on account of the @oftness of the ground on which it stands, and he withdrew the amendinent. The bili was then Te fed 20, nays 18. Mr. PRELINGHUYSEN, (rep.) of N. Y., from the Oommitsee on the Judiciary, reported a bill repeai- ing the act for the relief of certain Indians in the Pioux Superintendency. Passed. DEFECTS IN THE PRESENT ELECTORAL SYSTEM. Mr. Moron, (rep.) of Ind., cailed up his res- Solution instructing the ( ‘end Election: mimittee om Privileges 8 to inquire into the detects of the pres- ent electoral system and the best means for remedying ti spoke at length ad le reviews the constitutional position Of the States In the matter of choosing electors for President and Vice nt—a matter entirely beyond the jurisdiction of the national government ‘aad entirely without remed redress on its part, whatever disorders, irregalartion or failures may ‘occur in the appointment of electors in any State. No provision ts anywhere made for contesting the ‘election of electors, and whetever returns shall be ‘made up, although ‘produced in whole or in part by fraud or violence, must stand, and the vote be ‘counted upon them if returned in time. There is IMMINENT DANGER OF REVOLUTION othe mation whenever tne result of a Presiden- tial election is to be determined by the vote oi State in which the choice of electors has been ir- regular or is alleged to have been carried by fraud , Or violence. There ought to de such machinery of cee Provided that it would seem impossi- that any man should ever reach the Presiden- ial chair who was not legitimately chosen thereto. mee the transactions with refer- THE ELECTORAL VOTE IN WISCONSIN IN 1857 ‘when the electors of that State, having been | wented by a snow storm from assembling day ded by law, had nevertheless sent w ote of the State to be counted; and, though ob. was made on the constitutional ground, ir. Mason, President of the Senate, decided that the two houses had no jurisdiction over the count- ai the vote, but were met together simply as >’ af the accurecy of the count and the result, The vote of Wisconsin was counted and the decision oj Mr. Mason was notafterwards called in question, Clearly THE FRAMBRS OF THE CONSTITUTION aid not contemplate that the President of the Senate, in opening and counting the vote for Presi- dent and Vice President, should exercise discretion- ary or judicial powers in Determining vatvees the Votes of two sets of electors or upon the suMciency or validity o1 the record of the votes of the electors in any State, but that he should perform a merely ministerial act, of which the two houses were to be witnesses and to make record, Sut the exer- cise of these high powers may devolve upom him ex necessitate ret, and whatever decision he may make between the two sets of electors or upon the suficiency and validity of the record of the votes, ‘whether on the evidence of the right of the electors to cast votes or whether they have been cast in the manner prescribed by the constitution, his decision is final. There are rope be een TWO SETS OF RLECTO! at this time in the hands of the Vice President from the State of Arkansas, and two from the State of Louisiana; and whichever of these sets he de- cides is the proper electoral vote, and. brings for- ward, opens and causes to be counted, must be so received, and from his action there is no a) THE ACTION OF THE TWO HOUSES IN 1821. in regard to counting the vote of Missouri is no exceptien to this view of the power of the Presi- dent of the Senate, for the sepnation in that case was not as to auy irregula in regard to the electoral vote of Keissoust, but whether Misseurt was at that time @ State in the Union and entitled to parcicieate in the intial election at all; which was alse the question in the election of 1817 in regard to Indiana, and in 1869 in regard to Geor- ‘he Preaident of the Senate may, indeed, be impeached for crimes and misdemeunors should he grossly vivlate his duty and thus iraudo- lently count or reject electoral votes; but THAT WOULD NOT AMEND THB RECORD which had been made, undo the wrong, help the Presidential candidate who may have been cheated out of office nor protect the nation from disorder and ctvil war. Ifit should happen, upon the recurrence of an: one of the cases considered, that the decision o| the President of the Senate should determine the Tesult and give the Presidency to the candidate Who would otherwise have been defeated, or thraw the election into the House of Representatives, where the candivate who had been rejected by the People should be elected by the vote of the States, all can understand the imminent peril in which the pation would be placed. By the twenty-second joint rule of the two houses, adopted in 1865, in the Speaker's judgment, THE MOST DANGEROUS OONTRIVANCK TO THE PEACE OF THE NATION ever invented by Congress—it is provided that whenever an electoral vote is objected to the Sen- ate shall retire to its chamber and each House shall sepa Bey cone the objection, and the vote gitall not be counted unless the two houses concur to that effect. Ii the two houses ree the vote of the State is lost. Tnis may resait in a tie or in the election of the candidate who would otherwise have been defeated, or in preventing either of the candidates from having a majority of all the votes, and thus throwing the election into the House of Representatives. Each House is to decide the question without debate, in a summary manner, wear investigation and without adjournment. re is A POWERFUL TEMPTATION to the House of Representatives, by non-concur- cence, to throw the election into its own body, and thus, perhaps, secure the election of @ candidate who may have been overwhelmingly, beaten at the Polls. e two houses er be under the control of different parties, ag in 1857, led by politicians am- bitious, exasperated and thirsting tor power, who are thus enabled, by a mere non-eoncurrence, to defeat an election by the people and seize the au- ministration of the government into the hands of their party. He did not believe the constitution conferred the power upon Congress to make the rigtit of the people of aState to participate im the Presidential election depend upon the contingency Ol the agreement of the two houses on the settle- ment Of un objection. The rule is an invitation to jpresreoy to make captious and factious objections. t makes the concurrent action of the two houses necessary where it should not be; and, to sum up its perilous absurdity, ITS “MONSTROUS ILLOGIC,’’ its dangerous unconstitutionality, it places it in the power of a deieated party, which may happen to have a majority iu either House, to defeat an election by the people, and to take the chances of anarchy or of a victory by throwing the electiun into tue House of Representatives. But this ex- traordinary provision by which either House is em- powered to reject tue vote of a State in tie election 0! President is created by a joint rule of the two Houses, The constitution provides that ‘each House may determine the ruies of its own pro- Ceedings;”’ that is, the mode of conducting its busi- ness, and doing those things which, by the conSti- tution ance laws, it has a rght to do. But surely this clause docs not give the two Houses the power by a joint rule to enable each House to distranchise States by rejecting their electoral votes, The pro» visions of this rule, to have nf validity, must be embraced in a law ‘enacted which has been sub- mitted to the President for his approval, and, even a8 a iaw, it would be the most iearful enactment On the statute book, conferring, as it does, upon either House the power to BLOCK THR WHBELS OP. GOVERNMENT AND PLUNGE THE NaTION INTO ANARCHY. The proposition that Congress has power to sit a8 @ canvassing board upon the electoral votes of the States, admitting or rejecting them for reasons oi its own, subveits the whole theory by which their appointment was conierred upon the States; makes Congress the judge of the election and qualifications of President and Vice President; and by the operation of the twenty-second joint rule gives that power to each House separately, as in case vl its own memuvers, There 1. no such ex- press L peed given to Congress in the constitution, nor is it necessars to Carry out any express power therein given, and its exercise would be tn direct conflict with the known purpo-es of the framers to make the executive and legisiative departments as nearly independent of each other as possible. THE THEORY OF THR ELECTORAL COLLEGE was thata body of men should be chosen fur the express purpose of electing a President and Vice Pres.aent who would be distinguished by their eminent ability aud wisdem; who would be inde- pendeut of popular passion; who would nou be in- Nae.ced by tumult, cabal or intrigue; and that in the choice of vhe President they would be left per- lectly free to exercise their judgment in the selec- tion of the proper person. In short, the idea was that @ small body of select men could be more safely entrusted with the election of President and Vice President than the whole bedy of the people. Now that democracy is better understood and popular government has been more thoroughly tested, we have learned LARGE BLECTURAL BODIES CAN TRUSTED BE MORE SAFELY than small ones; that while it may be possible to corrupt smal bodies it is inipossible corrupt large ones, and that tne danger of tumult, which was ever present in the minds of the re of the cunstitution, arises chiefly .rom the exclusion of the masses from power and conferring it upona Jew. That the candidates for electors should be pledged in advance to vote for icular persons ‘was not only not contemplated the framers of the constitution, but was expressly excluded by thetr theory. ‘they were to independent, not influenced by previous committals or engagements, 80 that when they came together they could de- liberate with periect freedom for the best interests oi the Republic. How completely this theory hus been overturned in practice ‘or more than seventy years it was unnecessary to recite. ‘Tue electoral colleges have turned out to be who.ly useless, kvery reuson given for their original es- tablishment has ausoiutely sailed in practice. But while they are powerless ior good, they may be po- tent iorevil. In their election errors may easily be committed, and im very many instances have been. While NOBUDY WOULD MISTAKE THE NAME OF GRANT OR GREELEY, changes in the names on the long list of electors may occur irom errors in printing or fraud im. cient to reverse@he vote of @ State, The present electoral system circumscribes the power and the rignts of an individual voter, and prevents him from voting tor the men of his choice for Pres dent and Vice lent unless there a enough of his way of thinking in the same State to meet in convention and nominate electors to represent their views; resent requirement ot ors shall meet on the same day in their r States and cast their votes w liable to accident and interruptien, as in Wisconsin in 1857, He would prefer that the President should be elected by the people as one community, giving the elec- tion to the man who received the highest mumber Of votes, without regard to State lines or municipal divisions, so that THE NATIONAL CHARACTER SHOULD BE FULLY REPRE- SENTED in one department of the government. But, as- suming that the smaller States wiil not consent to an amendment by which the President would be elected by the people of the United States as one community, he believed they could have no objec- tion to such a change a8 would bring the election of the President directly to the people of the sev- eral States, each State to be divided into as many districts as it has Senators and Representatives, each district to have one vote in the election of President and Vice-President, and the vote Of that district to be counted in favor of the candi- dates for President and Vice President who re- ceive the largest number of votes in it. This would still give toeach State the same number of votes it new has in the election of President and Vice President, the votes, however, to be given directly for the candidates by the people, without the intervention of electors. The speaker then ite | bag Senators an 4 THR FAIRNESS OF THE PROPOSED PLAN, the intrinsic injustice to the States*of the present ee im, its peril to the country and the opportu- pi when an election is thrown into the House of resentatives. But, it will be asked, what is remedy? He answered that he would be glad if seme method could be devised by which the nation could escape the danger of having the House of Representatiyes to ciect a President in any case; bat if such is to be the resort IN CASE NO CANDIDATE FOR THE PRESIDENCY GETS A MAJORITY of all the votes he would have both houses of Con- gress to meet in joint conventien, and cach Sen- ator and Representative to have oue vote. This would be im exact harmony with the principles upon which the election is now to be made by the People of the ey Mcp toe acedel tem which he pr e ple of everal States shall vote directly for President, each State to have as m ~~ districts and a8 many votes as it Representatives in Congress, and it affords for corrupuee, canal and intrigue p- why the same rule should not be preserved when the election is thrown into Congress it is hard to perceive, His object was to point out to the Senate and the country DANGERS THAT LIB IN THE PATHWAY OF THE NA- TION contingencies, some of them not remote, but near aud propabie, which threaten the country with revolution and the government with destruction, and to urge thatthe path of duty is the path ol safety; that now, ina time of peace and political calm throughout the nation, we should adaress ourselves to the removal of these perilous obstruc- tions, that were bidden to the eyes of our fathers, but have beer brought to our knowledge by obser- vation and experience. And to sum up, in recapi- tulation, I would say that if the system of electoral colleges 18 to oe continued, some means shouid be devised by which the election of these electors in the States may be contested, so that if it has been controlled by fraud or violence, or if there be two sets of electors, each claiuing the right to cast the vote Of a State, there may be SOME MACHINERY OR TRIBUNAL PROVIDED by which fraudulent returns could be set aside or corrected, and the contending claims of diiferent sets of electors be settled in advance of the time When the vote is to be finally counted, and by which the President of the Senate may no longer be leit to exercise the dangerous powers that seem to be placed in his hand by the constitution, nor the two houses of Congress by the operation of the twenty-second joint rule. ‘triotic men of all parties must REJOICE THAT GENERAL GRANT HAS BEEN RE- BLECTED by #0 large @ majority that the electoral votes of Louistana and “ATKalinas are w ortant to the resus, lor without intending here express opinion in regard 40 those votes, must be permitted to say that they are surrounded by such ci ices and ec in if roumstan tended with so much doubt in the podlie mii that the peace of the nation would be imperilied the result of its Presidential election was to be determined by them. The pian of ing with the electorial colleges and oe u dent directly by the vote of the people of the whole country, a8 one community, or by dividing the States up into districts, seems to me to be A REMEDY FOR MANY OF THE EVILS AND DANGERS to which I have reterred; but even then some tribunal should be appointed to settle contested aud doubtiul results in districts or at the disputed polls, and this trinunat should be removed as far a8 possible from the control of excited parties. This naturally 6 gents the Supreme Court of the United States, or the Circuit and District Judges of the Courts of the United States for such a tribunal. Whatever tribunal might be created would require much consideration in regard to details and method of Cees into which it is not important that I should now attempt to enter. The injustice and danger of another election of President by the House of Representatives, voting by States, are so glaring that it ecems to me CONGRESS SHOULD NEVER REST until it bas constitationally presented to the sev- eral States for their adoption some plan by which it may hereafter be avoided. 1 have, therefore, proposed that a committee shall tuke the whole subject into consideration, with leave to sit during the vacation and report to the next seaston of Con- 88 the result of their deliberations, and to bring forward such measures as may be deemed neces- sary, Whether in the form of statutes or amend- ments to ‘he constitution of the United States.’ MR. TRUMBULL'S VIEWS, At the conclusion of Mr. Morton’s remarks Mr. TRUMBULL spoke briefly, agreeing with Mr. Morton as to some 01 the defects and dangers of the ex- isting electoral system, but dissenting from some Of his views as to the proper remedy. ‘Ihe founders of our government, he said, intended to establish nota pure democracy, but a republic, It was NOT INTENDED THAT THE MAJORITY SHOULD HAVE ALL POWER, and to put the government upon that basis would be to change our lorm of government and prepare the way for democracy. THR MINTS, ASSAY OFFICE AND COINAGE, Mr. SHERMAN called up the bill to revise and amend the :aws relating to the mints, Assay Office and coinage of the United States, which was amended und passed. On motion of Mr. CRAGIN the bill to provide for the building of ADDITIONAL SLOOPS-OF-WAR was taken up, and pending action upon it the Sen- ate adjourned until Monday. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, WASHINGTON, Jan. 17, 1873. This being private bill day, a large number of BILLS OF A PRIVATE CHARACTER were reported from the Committee of Claims and disposed of. A discussion took place, and a deal of oppo- sition was elicited on a Senate bill taken from the Spea er’s table, to grant THE TITLE TO OERTAIN LANDS IN THE STATE OF 10WA, It confirms certain railroad lands to the Missis- appt and Missouri and the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific Raitroad companies, Mr. STEVENSON, of Ohio, moved to lay the bill on the table, The House refused to lay the bill on the tab!e by— yeas, 82; nays, 97. ‘The main question was then ordered. Yeas, 88; nays, 73, URNED. Apso! Before coming to a final vote the House, at forty- five minutes past iour P. M., adjourned. SHIPPING NEWS. WHITESTONE TELEGRAPH.
