The counting of the votes cart by the Pre- asidential Electors of the different States will take place, in accordance with law, on Wed- nesday next, the 10th inst. The two Houses of Congress will mect together for the pur pose ut one o'clock in the afternoon, The Pre- ident of the Senate will open the sealed en. velopes containing the votes, end read them aloud. They will be recorded by three tell- trs, one of whom will be chosen by the Seu- ate and two by the House. Before the vote of any State is recorded, any Senator or Representative may object to It. Thereupon, the Senate will go back to {ts own chamber,y and the two Houses will vote eeparately, and with. out debate, on the question raised by the objecting member. That done, the Benate will return to the House, and the sesult of the vote just taken will be an- gounced. If it shall be found that both Houses have agreed to receive the vote of the Stato objectudl to, it will be counted of @ourse; Dut if one Houso decides to reject, even though the other is willing to receive, We presume that the vote of the State will thereby be excluded, ‘The question to be de- termined Ly the two Houses will be whether the work of reconstruction haa been fully accomplished necording to law. The con- dition of every one of the rebel States is, prima fucte, that its ryt to vote for Prosi- dent is suspended until it slall be entirely reconstructed ; aud unless the two Houses of Congress join inthe declaration that recon. Btruction is cor ¢, and the right thereby revived, that riglt cannot be exercised, ‘The States whose votes will not be count ed are the four whose reconstruction has not been consummated, These aro Texas, Mississippi, Virginia, and Georgia, The only one of the four about which any diffi ence of opinion is probable in Congress is Beorgia. Indeed, the other three chose no Electors, and have sent up no votes to be actud upon. ‘The Representatives of Georgia have, Dowever, been recogu'zed in the lower House, while in the Senate they are not yet admitted, on the ground that the processof reconstr' ton in that State hus Leen marked Dy viola Yona of tho Reconstruction law. If this viow should prevail in the House also, when the point is raised on counting tho Electoral votes, it will leave tho House in the attitude Of contradicting ita own former action, and of retaining in its membership six gentle men whom, on second thoughts, it dees not ' pogard as rightfully entitled to that distine- tion, But as the vote of Georgia will be equally excluded whether the House adopts » that view or not, it is possiblo that the two j eon and props ‘ana may also be objected to on account of the general terrorism which prevailed there at the thne of the election; but it is doubtfal whether it will be thought necessary to press that potnt, After tho result of the election has been offically proclaimed by the President of the Renate in his eapneity as presiding officer of the joint meeting of the two Houses, a com. mittee of members of the twa will be ap: pointed for the purpose of formally commu nicating to Gen. Guan and Mr. Conrax the fact, which they aro doubtless pretty well aware of already, that the ono has been elected President and the other Vice Presi dent of tho United States, “ — Tho Late Outburst of Crime, Readers of Tite Sun cannot have fatled to observe tho comparatively large number of crimes which have becn reported In our col umns during the past few weeks. Tho last day of 1803 was marked by the murder of Mr. Roa and though, fortunately, no additional felonious taking of human life within the city limits has eince been chroni- cled, assaults, robberies, and thefts of greater or loss magnitude have occurred with nlarin« ing frequency, We have had threo or four cesperate robberies, or attempts nt robbery, Inessengers intrusted with money and | vol sable securities; the bold and original k oa the money counter of the Park i the assault on the diamond merchant tend his wife; thechloroform robbery ; the robbery of Mr. P. ties slip on Saturday, and in his room at 566 Broadway J of whieh, with other out. , have, it fs useless to deny, cd a groat focling of insecurity of per ty among our citizens, ‘One ecanao for this outburst of erimo just at present is the season of the year, Tho winter months are always more productive of offences against the laws than auy o: The great army of halfvagrant, halfem Sunday Inst r « of leas note prod | ployed, and wholly vicious persons who | Was the onty y infest the city aro then usunlly most #orely pressed by want, and therefore most desper. ate, Men who, aa long as they ean pick up a living without running the risk of punish ment, willehun that risk, are driven in the winter, by cold, hunger, aud idl , to tho commission of acts from which at other times they refrain, And, ag thero is some. thing contagious and exciting in crime, the increase of it among one class intens. the predisposition to it among all who are familiar with it; and thus we have th sult of which wo have spoken. wv York is no worse now, on an average the year through, than it was ton years ago; only wo are just now at the highest tide of wicked. ness. As spring comes on, and is followed ‘They are endeavoring to | by summer, the wave will subside, and we shall forget the present alarm until it is re- tory, the separa: | nowed a twelvemonth hence, Another clement, generally overlooked, also comes in to swell the apparent number of crimes committed. As Recorder Hackurr shrewdly observes, in his charge to tho Grand Jury, which we priut elsewhero this morning, a fictitious assault or robbery isa very convenient device for cov- coring up a defuleation, or avoiding the pay- ment of a debt, or levying black mail, or in come other Way CHCLing waarmee maadies tor the suppored victim, Those who have read “Oliver Twist” will remember the case narrat- ed by Messrs, Blathers and Duftythe Bow strect runners, of tho tradesman who robbed him. self to furnish an excuse for not paytng his creditors, and tho trick is not so old yet as to be by any means always detected. It is not long einco an errand boy in William street exeited great sympathy hy a story ho told of a desperate encounter he had with | some burg contfir 14 in hia employers’ office. In tion of his statement, he showed wounds upon his own body and great pools of blood on the floor, but a careful examina tion showed that tho wounds wero self | inti'eted, and that the blood had beeu hought of a butcher, Whe motive for the fraud was | kimply @ desire for notoriety. Moro than ono case of messengers being disabled by haying suuff thrown in their eyes and thea robbed, have proved to be collusions be- tween the thief and an unfaithful servant. And, in the same way, some of the crimes which have just occurred among ua are, there Js reason to suspect, quite different affairs from what they seem to be. For example, about the middly of last month aman named Rerp put upat Earle's Hotel, and, as he eayr, was stupefied whil usleep in his room, by chloroform, and robbed of $5,000. But ther no cyidence besides his own word that he ever had $5,000 to lose, or, if he bed, that he lost it in the manner ho says ho did, Tho physician who was called to examine Lim found no traco of chloroforta in his system, nor In the bottle from which it was pretended it had been ad mninietere Furthermore, Mr. Rew's gold watch and chain were left untouched under his pillow, Those circumstances aro very much opposed to the theory that any robbery ever took place as charged. Tako again the case of Mr, Monny, His story is that he was seated in his room just at nighttall, when threo men, who enteret the apartment by the aid of false koys, seized and hound him and took from him over $7,000. Now, considering that Mr, Mongy's room was fitted with a good lock, to which only seven persons had keys, and considering farther the great inducements he would naturally have to explain the loss of $7,000 to parties with whom ho conducted his pecu liar business, we doubt very wuch the gen- uinenoss of the robbery. The Coenties slip robbery has also many incredible features. The idea that two thieves should outer a man’s counting ron at six o'clock in the evening, running allthe risk of detection and arrest, without first knowing that they were going to get more thau the sum of $200, is not a likely one, As to the alleged asseult on Mr, Lyncit ond bis wile, which, we are told, took place one afternoon when Broadway is most crowded, further investigation Jeada to tho clusion that the reputed assailants wore simply cated young men who had no felonious intentions, and that the Lynceus have very cleverly improved the occasion to advertise thelr Lusiness through the newspa- pers. At all events, they Lave shown no great energy in bringing these men to pun ishment, andthe matter will probably soon ome int “Wranches of Congress may bo found in op- | be dropped, never to be heard of again, position to cach other upon the question regarding that Sista.

The question is one which each may decide for himself, accordlag to his own view of his own interest. Nor t# there any #tronger ob+ Jection against te wnion of mea in strikes, and in supporting the members who may thus refuse to work, We do not think such unlons are always wise, On the contrary, they often involve @ good deal more of loss and of eufering than they avert. But they are sometimes necessary, and are never ertminal.’ In the course of a few months more, we pre- sume Tuk Sex will bring tho rest of the city press over to the conclusion that, after all, Jobor exerves the same consideration as money, and that the owuers of the one stand on the same footing us the owners of the other, am A very rood thing to emorh is the Ala- Dama treaty of Mr, Reven And won't it be smashed though? ‘ nia Further accounts of the late nitroglycerine explosion at Troy confirm the opiuion, which is Joux ow getting to be pretty generally enteriained, of the great danger attending the use of this powerful explosive, ‘The agcidunt hoppened from nothing more than the geutle tapping with a hammer of the small cartridge containing the substance, This exploding, the concusston led to the plosion of the lorger ean of nitro-glycetine, which Wos near by, ‘The effect wns perfeetly frightful, ‘The man who held the cartridge was blown int ahiundred pieces; two others were mangled so horribly that their remains were with ¢ My | identified, aud seven others were seri in jured. asta Ms Ore One of the chief attractions and merits of the Now York Felgeris the excellent infortoution and advice which Mr, Bosseu often furnishes stions of great moment and ine Wo havo rarely L nore impr some remarks in w recent wimber upon upon social q terest, ch the principle is laid erally to blame, » says the Ledger, y of circumstances It is almost ineredib! what a varie ‘may prove unhappy; but it is fonn mojority of cases, that the husb: »w or other the eauss of the Dow tic felicity is seldom murred by the woman; itis her empire, and she {4 no more likely to destroy it thon the bivd is to pull her own nest to pieces, She stands by home as a principle, and it is her nature to seek to render it as ble toher husband, fle has also a more intense sense than man of the di ies of life—is more anxious to have all duties properly observed—to have a ereditable appearance before n short, as she says, to have everything right.
