The Presidential Electors having
been chosen by the people, the law
provides that they shall assemble in
their respective States, on the first
Wednesday in December at such
places as the Legislatures may have
designated, and cast their vote for
President and Vice President. The
Electors then make three lists of the
votes given for each Office, which be-
ing sealed, signed and certified, one of
the lists is sent to Washington by
special messenger and delivered to
the President of the Senate before the
first Wednesday in January, another
is sent to the same Office by mail and
the third is deposited with the Judge
of the United States District Court in
which the Electors assemble. On the
second w ednesday in the February sue
ceeding the President of the Senate,
in the presence of both Houses Of Con-
gress, "Opens all the certificates and hav-
ing counted the votes declares the
person is elected President who has
the highest number of votes, provided
such number is majority of the whole
numer of Electors appointed. The
primary decision as to who have been
chosen electors in State rests with
the Executive thereof, who attaches
his certificate Of their appointment to
the votes of the Electors. In this State
the law provides that vacancies in the
Electors shall be filed by that body
when they assemble.

Senator Wilson on Grant.

Replying to the inquiry of Wendell
Philips, After Grant-What? ?" SEN
ator Wilson writes to the N. Y. Inde-
pendent:
This significant question was asked by
Wendell Phillips on the eve of the ell
ection, Mr.. Philips seem to distrust
Gen. Grant, and the men who gave
him their support. I have undoubt-
ing confidence in Gen. Grant, and the
men who have made him President of
the, United States. If he or they
shall fail to seek the things that make
for peace; if they shall fail to secure
equality of rights aud privileges to all
citizens of the United States; if they
shall fail to establish justice and pro-
lection to all men In their right to
think their own thoughts, utter their
own sentiments, and do as they please,
provided they do not interfere with
the rights of other men, Mr. Phillips
distrust will rest on a better fOunda-
ton than my confidence,
Of Gen. Grant l have seen much. l
have read what he has written and
studied with some care his acts. l
have heard him converse with public
men for hours on matters pertaining to
public affairs, ciYil and military. His
deeds are historic; and they make him
one of the great historic characters of
the age. What he has written is be-
fore the country: and his enemies have
found nothing In it even for hostile
criticism. In all the hours of his
conversations to which / have listened
I do not remember him to have utter
ed trihing word or an illiberal OF
unjust sentiment. l have great faith,
confidence. and hope in the Republi-
can party-so much faith, confidence,
and hope that l have never written
line or uttered word to disparagc,
distract or divide 1t. I believe it was
brought into being to meet the needs
of the country-to do great work for
the nation, for man, and for God. But,
great as l believe this party to be, l
have never, since I have known him,
questioned Gen. Grants fitness to be
its chosen leader. 1 have undoubting
faith that Gen. Grant will prove him
self as worthy to lead the Republican
party, for the next four years, as he
was to command the armies of the
United States.

Death of Ex-Governor Tod.

a painful shock will be caused by the
announcement of the sudden death of
Governor David Tod. He died at his
residence in Youngstown at o'clock
Friday morning, Nov. 14th, aged about
Sixty-four years. He was in bis usual
health on the day preceding, but on
the morning of Friday com planned of
bad feelings, layed down and in few
moments died. His death though very
sudden, and all this time unexpected
was an event his friends deemed not
unlikely to happen at any time az short
notice.
David Tod's father, Hon. George Tod,
moved to Ohio at an early day, and
having large family and small means
David was compelled early to struggle
tor himself, and with but few OF the adj
vantages of the. present day. In 1926 he
was admitted to the bar, being twenty
one years of age, and shortly after
wards he entered into partnership with
Judge Burchard and had avery sue
eessful practice.
In politics he was an earnest Demo
crat of the Jackson School,, was elected
State Senator by the Democracy and in
1874 was the Democratic candidate for
President Polk he was Minister to Bra
I'll. He was a member of the charles
/ ton Convention in 1860 and labOred
hard for the nomination Of Stephen A.
Douglas, and also took a prominent
part in the Baltimore Convention the
the same year which nominated Doug
/ las.
When the first gun was fred on Sum
/ ter, he threw himself and his all on the
side OF the Government, and labOred
/ earnestly from this time on to his death
\ to crush treason in whatever form il
/ appeared. He was War Democrat.
| In 1861, he was elected Governor oi
! Ohio on the Union ticket. By his active
4 personal exertions in forwarding troops
with rapidity and caring for them
while in the field he earned an enVia-
/ bic reputation, while in all the political
/ contests during the war and since he
4 took an active part on the side of the
\ Union, and in the recent Presidential
election was chosen one of the Electors
/ at large to cast the vote of the State fol-
| General Grant. The death of Governor
/ Tod is a public loss and has left place
not easily filled.-SGnd9tSky Register.

The Grand Result.
Hon. Horace Greeley writes to the

Hon. Horace Greeley writes to the n.
Y. Independent:
Ulysses s. Grant has been designated
by the American people as their choice
for President, with Schuyler Colfax as
Vice President, by at least two thirds Of
the Electoral Votes, and larger popu-
lar majority than was ever before pOlled
for any ticket in the United States.
Though Washington was twice elected,
and Monroe was reelected without Sc
rious oppOsItion it is doubtful that
either of them stood more strongly in
trenched in the affections and judgment
of the American People than General
Grant does to day. For his apparent
majority, large as it is, falls far below
that which would have been polled for
him If Fraud and Force had not power
fully aided his competitor. The States
Of Georgia and louisiana, with possibly
Alabama and even Arkansas also, have
been carried against him by driving the
loyal Blacks from the polls or compeil-
ing them, by terrOTS of massacre and
famine, to vote for their Oppressors.
New York and New jersey have been
made to render veTdicts against their
own convictions and preferences by the
most gigantic, shameless frauds
o eTpetrateo at an election. Inc ever
States whereof the legal voters really
prefer Seymour to Grant are Kentucky,
Maryland and Delaware; and these only
because there the Rebels all vote, while
the loyal Blacks are denied the right of
suffrage. Make these States truly Re-
publican, and let every citizen vote his
real choice, and Grant would have a
unanimous electoral vote, as Washing.
ton and Monroe did; while neither
Jackson, nor Harrison, nor Pierce, had
so large a popular preponderenee as the
Union has accorded to Grant and Col
fax.
If the States of Alabama and Arkan-
sas shall prove, on full returns, to have
gone for Seymour, Grants electoral vote
viii be reduced to 198, unless Oregon
shall, on like returns, have gone for
Grant. It is morally certain that Grant
cannot have less than two thirds of the
electoral votes, and be may have nearly
or quite three-fourths.
In the next Senate the Republicans
will be stronger even than in the last.
We gain Senators in place of Dixon of
Connecticut, BuckaleW of PenDsylVa-
mia, and Hendricks of Indiana; while we
lose only the successors Of Conness of
California, and (alas y Frelinghuysen of
New Jersey. Massachusetts,, New
York, Nebraska, Missouri, and some
other States, secure each a Republican
Senator for six years ensuing.
To the House we have 139 members
already chosen, with New Hampshire
and Connecticut yet to elect, which will
add or to the number. The Demo-
Gratis have S., including several returned
by glaring fraud, New Hampshire and
Connecticut will probably give them
two or three more. We shall, therefore,
not have quite tWo-thirds in the House;
but, when Andrew Johnson shall have
evacuated the White House, so large a
majority will no longer be needed.

II is rumored that the President elect
favors an amendment of the Constitu-
tion making suffrage universal
throughout the United States. We do
not doubt it. Gen Grant is n practical
man, and believes la going straight to
the root of a difficulty. "Let Us have
peace" is his motto; and TO have peace
on the vexed question Of suffrage it Is
necessary TO sponge out Of our system
Of government everything that has the
taint of caste about it. If the people
want to get the negro out of politics, the
easiest, plainest, and the most direct
mode Of doing it is to put all men of all
races upon the same civil and political
fo0tings 50 far as Government is con-
cerned.
Supposing that there were anything
in the Constitution that gave any one
religious belief especial vecOgnition-We
do not mean constitutional protection
or preference for a particular sect, but
only recognition Of a creed; such, for
instance, as would apparently put the
Jew, or the Unitarian, or any unbe-
levers in the Trinity, outside the Con-
stitutiOn-hOW long would il be before
we should have q politicO religious
strife and dissensiOn7 The most pro-
life breeder of civil wars the world has
ever known Our comparative freedom
from all agitation of that sort is as
sured TO us only by the absolute impair
tialitV or silence of the Constitution re-
sDecting creeds and sects. Religion, in
a sectarihn sense, is kept out OF politics,
by virtue Of q constitution that has no
preferences, creates no inequalities,
and protects every man in the freedom
Of his conscience and his own method
of worship.
An amendment that would abolish all
distinctions founded upon race and
color, make the franchise equal, and
protect all alike in Its exercise, would
act ike a charm upon the troubled sea
Of politics, and calm an agitation that
otherwise promises to be Of indehnate
duration.
Charles Sumner never made a state
ment containing a sounder philosophy
than when he said there can be no con-
fifct of races where there is no denial of
rights. That is the root of the whole
matter. 1t is the denial of rights to
which men feel themselves to be justly
entitled that creates dissatisfaction, dis
sension, and not unfrequently violence
and blOodshed. Il is because peace lies
in the direction of a broad recognition
of the political rights of all the citizens
Of the United States, irrespective of
race, that we are OF the opinion that q
proposition to make suffrage universal
will receive the sanction and support of
President Grant. 1t Is a doctrine
that is soUndly democratic, and, there
fore, likely to form a part of his political
creed, and it viii be the great remem-
bered fact Of his admins il &C
complished, as the eradication of slavery
from American soil will be the grand
historic fact of Mr.. Lincoln's term OF
Office. Cincinnati Commercial.

New York Election Frauds.


The New York Independent gives the
following as illustrative cases of the
frauds perpetrated by the Democracy
of New York city at the late election:
In the 9th ward, IA houses taken con-
secutively in Mott Street, 20 in Bayard,
IA in Elizabeth, and 5 in Canal, making
in all So houses, furnish to the registry
list 273 names. Ofthese 273 registered
names, it was found that 106 represent
ed legal voters, and 167 represented no.
body at aH-or, rather, represented
vagRbonds who had been registered in
"a dozen different places, and who, on
election day, voted ''early and often"
In 10 houses in Bayard street, 8 in the
Bowery, and in Mott street, it was
found that 46 registered names were of
resident voters, and 40, birds of passage.
In house in West TWenty-sixt street,
13 names were registered, only genu-
inc. From a hotel in Third avenue, 100
names were registered, only 10 legal vO-
ters. From a house IN Fourteenth
street. is names we're registered not one
an inmate. From William NJ. Tweed's
house, in Henry street, bogus names
were registered; from Coroner KeenRn's,
in Seventh street, 13; from Police Jus.
tice ShRndley's, 5; and from an alder
mans in the Eighth Ward, 20. These
statements we obtained on personal in
Quiry at the police headquarters. Tt is
estimated by the same authority that
the Illegal votes numbered 1900. Bet

Grant for Impartial Suffrage.


The Des Moines Register says, that
on the 18th instant one of the most
prominent politicians of this State had
a conversation with Gen. Grant, in
which the General expressed himself
as being particularly solicitous about
the success of impartial suffrage in
Iowa. He said he chopped the people
of Iowa, whose soldiers achieved such
immortal renoWn in the field, would
be the first State to carry impartial
suffrage through unfalteringly. It had
gone down in other States, but he trus-
ted that Iowa, the bright Radical
star, would proclaim by its actor in
November that the North is consist
ent with itself, and willing to voluuta-
rily accept what its Congress had
made a necessity in the South. The
negro race, by their devotion in the
war, by their faithfulness when all
others we're faithless, had nobly earn
ed the possession of their deprived
rights, and surely should have it be-
fore the white Rebels whom the5 kslp-
ed to subdue." Good for General
Grant
