The Electoral Vote of the states.

With a view to settle all doubt as to whether
The states, in the approaching Presidential elcc-
tion, will choose electors under the apportion.
mcnt Of 1850, or that to be made from the census
Of 1850 the Judiciary Committee of the United
States Senate has made the sutio.ned report,
which very satisfactorily determines the question
in favor Of the apporionment under the census
Of 1850:
"The Constitution provides That Each State
shall appoint, IN such manner as the Lcgisla.
ture thereof may direct, number Of electors
equal To the whole number Of Senators aud Rep
resentatiyes to which the State may lie entitled
in the Congress The act Of Congress Of March
ist, l792, passed before any election OF President
had been held under new Oppurtionmeut, gives
Il construction TO this clause OF the Constitution
IN these words;
(which electors iof President aul Vice Pre,i.
denO shall be equal to the number of Senators
and REPRESENTATIVES TO which the several States
may by law be entitled at the time when the
President asd Vice President thus to lie chosen
should come into office
The new apportionmcnt under the first cen,
sus took effect from aud after the 81 of March
1898, Act Of the llth April, l799) According
Iy, IN 1892, IN 1872 and in 1892, the states gave
number Of electoral votes for prcsilcn. and
Vice President equal to the number Of Senator's
and Representatives, respectively from and AZ.
ter the Sd Of March, l793 the 30 Of March, 1873,
aud the 81 Of March, 1888 and the act Of 1850
having q similar prOyiso to that Of 1899, so il
must be in the next electisn next fall that is,
the states will vote under the new and not under
the old arpuriionmcnt"
The Committee are, therefore Of the opinion
that no additional legislation is necessary on the
subject and recommend the adoption of the fol.
lowing resolution:
ReSolrcd, That the number Of electoral votes
to which ench state shall be entitled in the cleo.
ton Of President and Vice President of the Unit.
ed States in 1852, shall be equal to the number
OF Senators and Representatives to which each
Of said States will ho found entitled by the ap.
portionment under the enumeration of 1850, n
provided by tho act "ior taking seventh and sub.

InGction Of Congress.-Such a set Of old
| "fogies" and young "fogies'' as may be found
in the thirty second Congress, never before as
sembled in Washington. The public has ceas-
ed to take much inteaest in their endless discus
sions, or rather their personal contentious,
schemes and ambitions. They first disgraced
the country by exhibitions of ungovernable
passion; next, they abused the dignity and res
pect of the representative Office by indulgence
in language that offends every principle of pro-
priety, every sentiment of manly honor; and
now they have relepsed into the more quiet
and inane species of fogyism, which is the dis
inclination to do, Or permit to be done, any,
thing useful, spirited and progressive. 4a
Like true fogies, their self-importance is
both astonishing and ridiculous. They fancy
that the permanency of the Union depends up-
on their conduct, though it would be a national
blessing if they could all be induced to expa-
triate themselves, never to return. While they
are intriguing to control the government and
the revenues of the country, the people are
becoming daily more disguised with their con-
duct, and will refuse to follow their dictation.
A crisis is approaching, but it does not involve
the peace of the Union. It will simply be
sending up Salt Riyer the whole batch Of "fo-
gies," next fall.

The byqur and EClnr.--It is hard to say
(says the N. Y. Express) which way the tide Of
immigration flows the faster, from Europe to
New York, or from here to the shores of the
Pacific. Think Oft the Illinois taking out nearly
eight hundred passengers for California, all at
one load, the other day! Yet this is about a
solitary instance of what may be said TO be
now and an every day fact. Our exchanges
from all parts of the country, the cast and west
particularly, have all some reference to parties
going from their respective neighborhoods, to
New York, there are met by counter current
of humanity from the old world, both keeping
in constant whirl those mighty business inter
ests embraced in our noble packet ships end
steamers. The lady Franklin, from Liverpool,
to-day, for expample brings 54l in the steerage;
the Waterloo, from the same port, last evening,
318; the Cornelius Grinnell and the fEibernian,
from london, an aggregate of slo;the Henry
Pottinger, from Cork, 246; the Camilus, from
Antwerp, 900; the Linden, from Sligo, $50; and
the St. Louis, from Bremn, IA. Total, since
sundown last evening. 2,3SS.

PAQUEAlNE PARISH OF IBERVIIIE. MAY 22, 1882

The Editorial ProfcssiOn.- Baltimore
Clipper, referring to portion Of the assaul
Of Senator Mangun upon Mr.. Brooks, says.
The language would not be justGable even
| if Mr.. Brooks WAS the writer Of the letter ii
| question--for We have yet 10 learn, that bcco-
| ming q member OF Congress- constitutes q man
| gentleman, or entities him to higher distinc-
| ton in respectable society, than he formerly
enjoyed. The fling is evidently at the protus-
sion Of Mr.. Brooks-a profession which cv-
crts more influence upon the community than
any other, and is at least IS respectable. II it
were not for the aid received from the press,
there arc many members of Congress who
would have remained in private life. 1t is I'M
fortunate that editorial influence is sometimes
misdirectcd to the elevation of incompetent and
unworthy men.
Upon which the Richmond Republican re-
marks:
The intination that scat in Congress is
more honorable than the editorial profession
is Il very distressing one. We don't know
anything which any gentleman could have ut
tered better calculated to sink the men Of the
type in the estimation OF all mankind. 10
have insinuated that the editorial vocation was
less honorable than some other professions
and mechanical employments, might have been
borne with some patience: but to insinuate
that editors are not as respectable as members
of Congress, is 4 climax of inycctive which
might well stir the bile Of the most pliloso-
phical soul.
As to the 1espectadilily of official position,
compared with editorial life, il must depend in
this country upon individual character and de-
pertinent. We have in this Republic, theoret-
ically at least, no privileged and no arstocratic
classes. 1t is the man who determines his
Standing and not the occupation. True it is,
that there are some who regard themselves as
superior to others, because Of wealth, family,
professional or official trust. The European
notion of royalty, 'We by the Grace of God
&c, is initiated here, but on miniature scale.
But it only awakens the pity of men of sense.
1t manifests weakness of brain which eXcites
instead Of anger. Aristoeracy in
the old world is odious, but there it has tradi-
tions to affect the imagination and power to
make itself feared. Here, with patrican robe
upon plebeian carcass, it is simply ridiculous
The acter who, in the habiments of king, |
struts his little hour upon the stage, and goes |
% his garretin the firm conviction that he is |
monarch, labors under no wilder hallucination |
han the republican official, who, clothed in |
little brief authority, tancies himself thereby a |
superior being to the common herd of human
ty.
