How the Country May be Pacined and
heuee med-What the Preside ntial
Electors Mig ht Do

keuee med-What the Preslde ntt0I
Electors Might DO.
Both Lincoln aud Mcclellan ha We slipped off
their party platforms, and are run ming on their
own legs along the Presidential track. They
have cut loose from the train. To the last
resolution adopted at Batimore-viz: that the
Monroe doctrine must be maintained (for this
Is The substance OF it), the President has in no
way satisfactorily replied. th rough there is no
one question, next to the maintenance Of the
Union, which is SO important to this country as
"ths attempt OF any European Power to over
throw by force or to supplant by fraud the in
stitutions of any republican government on
the Western Continent" These are the very
words Of the resolution referred to. So far,
then, the Baltimore platform is ignored by its
candidate. On the other hand General
Mcclellan has repudiated the principal doc
trnes Of the Chicago platform, which demands
"a cessation of hostilites," or, in other words,
dsgraceful surrender to the rebels.
Now, as both these candidates have jumped
or the platforms on which they were TO be run
on The Presidential track, they may both be
very easily disposed Of, and in this way: what
ever electoral ticket in any State is chosen
may consistently and constitutionally exercise
tho right Of selecting some one else for Presi-
dent than either Of the two persons who have
been named by their partisans.
All the electors have 10 do Is "to meet In
their respective States and vote BY ballot for
two porsons," naming in their ballots the per-
son voted for as President and Vice President,
and tho persons having the highest number Of
votes, being a majority Of the whole, shall be
such President and Vice President The twelfth
article OF the constitution, under and by virtue
OF which the election is made, does not require
the colleges to vote in conformity with any
previous understanding. convention nomIna-
tion or any party pledges whatever. They
are free constitutional agents 10 perform a
certain great and solemn duty and this alone;
they are, in fact, bound to perform It without
regard TO any 6tber consideration than that Of
selecting the best men for these high Offices.
Is not the time come therefore, for the cleo
torsl colleges TO take this course, and liberate
the country from the government Of factions

the magnitude Of tho crisis In which We are
