The death Of Mr.. Greeley raises an
interesting, but not important question
under the circumstances as to who shall
receive the so-caiied Greeley electoral
vote. The Constitution provides for
the choice OF electors from each State,
and it provides that they shall meet on
q certain day and cast their votes for
President and Vice President OF the
United States a majority Of the whole
number of electors chosen shall be
necessary to choice. It provides
further that both President and Vice
President shall not be residents of the
same State. The death of Mr.. Greeley
leaves the Electors free as they were
before, to cast their votes for whom
they please. The Grant Electors may
cast their votes even now for Charles
Sumner or any other man Constitution
ally eligible. Electors are at liberty TO
decide for themselves. There is no
precedent by which the Greeley Elec-
tors can be governed. The nearest case
is that of Mr.. Webster, whose friends in
Massachusetts,, in 1852, after his defeat
in the National Convention, nominated
a Webster Electoral ticket in that State;
and although Mr.. Webster died some
days before the election persisted in
voting for him. Now, the question is,
will the Greeley Electors vote for
Gratz Brown for President and some
other man for Vice President. 1t
would seem that the voters who sup
ported Greeley and Brown intended
that if Greeley died, Brown should be-
come President. Under the circum-
stances, then it is likely Brown will re-
ceive the votes Of the six or seven
Greeley. States for President, and some
other person be compIimented with
their votes for Vice President. AS the
vote was east yesterday, little time was
had for consultation. However, vote
as they may, it makes no difference as
they represent only small minority Of
the college. As President Grant has
been chosen by almost unanimous voice
TO be the next President, these so-called
Greeley Electors could no better follow
out the doctrine of their illustrious
leader, than by making his election en-
tifely unanimous.

CIVIL Service REFoRM.

b An earnest desire has been felt to
correct the abuses which have grown
up in the civil service of the country
through the defective method of max
ing appointments to office. Heretofore
federal offices have been regarded too
much as sthe reward of'politicai services.
Under authority Of CONGRESS rules have
been established TO requisite the tenure
of Offices and the mode Of appoint
melts. 1t cannot be expected that any
system of rules can be entirely effective
and prove a perfect remedy for the
existing evils until they have been
tried by actual practice, and
according to the requirements
of the service. During my term of
Office itshail I've my earnest endeavor
to so apply the rules rs TO secure the
greatest possible reform in the civil
service Of the Government, but it will
require the direct action of Congress to
render the enforcement of the system
and fixing it upon my successors, and |
hope the experience of the past year,
together with appropriate legislation by
Congress, may reach satisfactory So
Iution OF. this question, and secure to-
the public service, for all times prac- !
.ical method of obtaining faithful and
efficient officers and employees.

THE TERRITORIES.

The affairs in the territories are gener-
ally satisfactory. The energy and busi-
ness capacity of the pioneers who are
settling up the vast domains not yet
Incorporated into States, are keeping
pace in the internal Improvement and
civil government with the older COM
munities. In but one of them, Utah,
is the condition of affairs unsatisfactory,
exceptso far as the quiet of the citizens
may be disturbed by real or imaginary
danger of Indian hostilities. 1t has
seemed to be the policy of the Legisla-
ture of Utah to evade all responsibility
to the Government of the United States
and even to hold a position in hostility
to 1t. recommend careful revision
of the present laws of the territory by
Congress and the enactment of such a
law, the one proposed in Congress at
its last sessio.l, or something similar to
it, as viii secure peace, the equality of
all citizens before the law, and the ex-
of Poiygamy.

MAYOR HAvEMEYER AND HIS ADVISERS. -
There are unmistakable indications that the
Mayor elect and the new republican Ring will
not be entirely harmonious in their views as to
the best method of securing solid and lasting
reform in our municipal government. The
republican politicians desire to claim exclusive
interest in the Mayor, and demand by his aid
and the cooperation of the State Legislature,
complete control of the city departments. MIR.
Havemeyer is, however, very Independent, a
tri8e obstinate and fundamentally democratic,
and he is said to regard the election as having
been decided independent Of political parties
in the cause Of reform alone. Hence he will
probably oppose mere partisan distribution
OF the 'spoils'' such as the Ring desires. The
republicans will, in that event, carry their case
TO the Legislature. The members elect hope
for such complication, as holding out the
prospect Of good lobby season next Winter.
