Communicates to the Cincinnati Commercially
Can John Bell be Elected President
hE the Home!

by the HOuSeg
No one claims that Mr.. Bell has any
chance for an election by the popular vote,
and his friends only claim that he has
chance of election in case of the election
going into the House. Let us examine the
matter, and see what are his chances be-
fore the House In case of the election
going into the House, only the three high
est candidates can be voted for Each
State gives Que vote. and that vote is cast
by majority of the present delegation in
Congress, and not by the Congressman to
be elected this fall. Where the members
of Congress are equally divided between
parties, that States vote can not be cast
for any one. There being thirty-three
States in the Union, and majority of all
the States being required to elected by the
House must receive the vote of seventeen
States
When the Vice President is not elected
by the people, the election of Vice Presi-
dent goes to the Senate and not to the
House. The two highest candidates only
can be voted for by the Senate and ma
jority of the Senators elect. The Demo-
Gratis having q decided majority, will have
no difficulty in electiug their candidate for
Vice President.
But how will it be in the election of
President before the House? The Repub-
licans have majority of the delegates in
Congress from fifteen States; the Demo-
Gratis have a majority in fourteen States;
the Americans in one. The State of Ten
nessee, and the States of Maryland, Ken
lucky, and North Carolina, are equally dt-
yided between the Democrats and Ameri-
cans, and cannot give their vote for either.
Neither the Democrats, nor the Republic
cans, having seventeen States, neither par
ty can elect.
posed to all go to Bell, it would only give
him sixteen States, and he could not be
elected.
None of the Democrats would go to him,
and there would be no election by the
House, and the Democratic Vice President
would be the President, as it is provided
by the Constitution, that in case there is
vacancy in the Office of President, the Vice
President shall fill the place.
1t is therefore apparent that Mr.. Bell
stands no chances of an election whatever,
and those who vote for him merely throw
their votes away. OHlO.

The great English Derby race, on which
so much was staked, and which it was
hoped would be won by Mr.. Ten. Broeck's
horse "Umpire," was run on the 23d of
May. The result is as folIows.-ThiFty
horses entered. Thormanby came in first
Wizard, second; Horror, third; Umpire
(American horse eleventh. Wizard won
1000 guineas at Newmarket. a London
letter asserts that Mr.. Ten Brock, during
therace, wore face rs calm as summer,
and when the announcement was made
his GOODNESS was the same. He lost no
mony, but gained nearly 100000. The
loss to Americans is very severe. So
much confidence was placed in his nhili-
ties by Englishmeu, that they were sure of
winning.

SOMEWHAT SIxGULAR.-Therc have been
eighteen elections OF President. In eleven
of them, the name of the individual elect
ed ended with the letter n. With only
one exception, the name of every Presi-

termination. In only one case has can
didate for reelection, with final in his

the name of the successful candidate pos
sessed this auspicious termination.

The Alleghanies, n well known concert
troupe, have been at the Sandwich Islands,
and are giving concerts generally in that
part of the world. They landed at Raro-
tonga, one OF the Herve Islands, and
recently published letter gives au amusing
account of their first and only concert
there. The tickets were paid for sin
kind" the price of admission being one
hog or two pigs, or one turkey. or two
chickens, or twenty-five Cocoa nuts, or
twenty pine apples, &C.; children half
price. The door-keeper had plenty to do
in collecting the pay, although he had no
change to make. The concert was crowd
ed to overlooking; but as the audience
were dressed in the fashion of Adam and
Eve, there was no tearing of skirts, or
crushing of hoops in the jam. The con-
cert was complete triumph, and gave so
much satisfaction that the females insisted
on showing the usual sign of devoted
friendship to Miss Hiffert. the female sing
er of the troupe, by rubbing their noses
against her own until the skin was worn
of. They then carried her in their arms
to the house of Mr.. Gill, the missionary.
The proceeds of the concert, at market
prices, would have realized $5Os6 in New
York, but not having the articles there,
the troupe shipped all they wished, and
distributed the remainder among the peo-

The House of Representatives has most
honorably distinguished itself by its in
dustry and dispatch of business. Under
the lead of Mr.. Sherman, seconded by
the other chairmen, and by the majority
of the House, the bills necessary for the
support of the government, are either
passed, or in such a state of forwardness,
that they could all be passed in fort
night; and much other important legisla-

is concerned. Unusual progress, too, has
been made in the private calendar; and all
together it may be truly said that no pre-
vious House of Representatives for many
years has devoted itself with so much in
dustry, zeal and success to the public bus
mess, and to the consideration of private
claims, many of them long delayed de
mands upon the justice of the government
The Senate is much behind the House, yet
might readily overtnke it if the discussions
upon abstract propositions could be stopped
and the sessions devoted to the practical
business of legislation. The best inform
ed correspondents at Washington write
that an adjournment is probable, as it is
evidently practicable by the 18th of June.
If, however, the session continues over
that date and extends beyond the Balti-
more convention, it is impossible to pre-
dict upon what sea of discussion the
TWO houses will be launched.
