IT is stated that the free schools in
Charleston county, South Carolina, are
about to be closed because, while millions
of money have been squandered by the
State officials, the past year, the few thous-
and needed for the pay of teachers cannot
be raised. In Edgefeld county the case is
the same, and Taxpayers are beginning to
ask, more earnestly than before, what has
become of the taxes? The people have paid
the taxes to sustain the schools, but it ap-
pears the money has gone the way of a good
deal more.

AN EDITORIAL CLIQUE.

1t is getting to be very generally reported
that there was an editorial clique at Gin
cinnati which attempted to run the Con-
vention IN the interest Of Adams, and
aristocracy. Wine and elegant, exclusive
dinners and suppers were the go at the st.
Nicholas. But farmer Greeley and one of
the Brown family from over in Missouri
smashed that beautiful slate.

THE Louisville COurier-JOlTnGL is evil
IDENTIFY dissatisf ed with the nominations
made at Cincinnati. 1t would have pre-
ferred the Adams ticket. 1t says "Most
Democrats have, however, come to the con-
clusion that Adams was the man for the
Liberals to put forward" That may have
been so in Kentucky, but it was not so
in any other State in the South. Greeley
and Brown can get ten thousand more
Democratic votes in Tennessee against
Grant than Adams and any other man.

IT will be seen from our foreign dis
patches this morning that the London
Times, the great organ Of the British throne,
regards Mr.. Greeley's nomination as 'farci-
cal" Doubtless the! Times and its aristo-
cratic readers would have much preferred
Mr.. Adams, but not so with the American
people. There is more genuine Democracy
in Horace Greeley than there ever was in
che Adams family from old John to Charles
Francis included.

HON. C. N. PoTTER's REPLY.

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,, WASH
INGToN, May 2, IS72.-My Dear Sir: /
have the honor to acknowledge your COM
municatiOn of this date, inquiring whether
the number Of electoral votes to which a
State viii be entitled at the ensuing election
for President and Vice President is to be
determined by the number Of Senators and
Representatives to which the State is nOlg
entitled, or by that to which under the new
apportiOnment the State will be entitled in
the next Congress.
If the question were a new one, some
differences Of opinion might, perhaps, exist
as to the true meaning of the provision of
the Constitution Cart. IL, Sec. u that
'each State shall appoint number of cleo
tors equal to the whole number of Senators
and Representatives TO which the S. ate
may be entitled in the Congress-"
But in the Second Congress a law was
passed on the first of March, 1892, 1st. U.
S. Stat. at Large, P. 2S9,) which provided
(SeCii5n - for the appointment of electors,
and declared the electors should "be equal
to the number of Senators and Representa-
tives to which the several States may by
law be entitled at the time IChen the PreSi-
dent and Vice President thus to be chosen
should come into Office: Provided, always,
that where no apportionment Of Represent
atives shall have been made after any emu
meration, at the time of choosing electors,
then the number of electors shall be accord
ing to the existing apportionment of Sena-
tors and Representatives.
This provision was added in the House
of Representatives by way of amendment
upon the motion of Mr.. Elbridge Gerry,
and was adopted "with very little objec-
ton" 1t was concurred in by the Senate
without a division, and has ever since re-
manned in force; the succeeding elections
of President having been conformed to it.
1t would seem, therefore, that action so long
and so unquestioned must be regarded as
setting any question as to the construction
of this provision OF the constitution. My
answer, accordingly, is that the number of
electoral votes to which State will be en-
titled at the next election for President and
Vice President is to be determined by the
number of Senators and Representatives to
which the State will be entitled in the
Forty-third Congress.
remain, dear sir, with high respect, very
truly yours, CLARKsoN n. POTTER.

'The defeat of the aspirations Of Gen.
Abbott to be United States Senator from
North Carolina virtually settles tie case Of
Harris vs.. Rogers, from the same State, in
the House Of Representatives. Mr.. Harris,
a colored man Of capacity and reputation,
applies for the seat from the Fourth Dis
trict, on the ground that Rogers, who re-
ceived the majority vote, is ineligible under
the fourteenth amendment. An effort for
the removal of the disabilities Of Rogers
failed in the Senate yesterday through the
