the boat, which ultimately brought him
ashore Immediately after this another
man pitched his wife into the boat, and
then threw little girl The captain who
was close by and speaking to his wife, did
not attempt to get into the boat and save
himself. He merely said TO his wife,

words with great calmness, as if the leave
taking were Of an ordinary character. The
lady, who was greatly distressed, replied,
Good bye, my dear" That was all |

The Senate and House met in Joint
convention Wednesday, to count the cleo
toral vote for President and Vice Presi-
dent, Mr.. Collax presiding Mr., Sherman
acted as teller on the part of the Senate
and Mr.. Dawes for the House. The GER
tifcates of several states were read with.
out interruption. Maryland was the first
liberal state whose votes were counted.
They were cast for Hendricks and Brown.
The votes Of Democratic Georgia were
divided among Greeley, Brown, jenkins,
Halford aud Banks. Mr. Hoar, of Massa-
ehusetts made point that the three votes
cast for Greeley should not be counted, be-
cause the person for whom they were cast
was dead at the time of the assemblage OF
the electors Of that state. Objection was
also raised to counting the vote of Missis-
sippi on account Of an informality in the
returns. AT O'Clock the Senate withdrew
for the purpose Of giving both branches an
opportunity to debate the questions Of differ
ence. After considerable debate in both
houses, they again met in joint assembly
when the votes of all the states were adj
mitted except those Of Arkansas and Louis
lana. The Vice President then declared
that Ulysses S. Grant was duly elected
President, and Henry Wilson Vice Presi
dent Of the United States, for four years
commencing on the 4th of March, 1873.

Tho two years reign Of Amadeus the
l.tc King Of Spain, constitutes an interest.
i1e chapter in Spanish history. It will be
reiusmbered that when the uprising Of Sep.
tsmber, 1865, had resulted in driving lisa.
bella from the throne, Provisional Gov
cruucnt was formed. This remained in
power until June, $50, when Serrano was
made regent, aud held his office until the
all Of tho following year. Then, in re.
spou.o TO repeated solicitations, Amadeus
expressed a willingness to accept the
throne, provided the Cortes gave a sufii-
cicntly decided expression in his favor
Although vigorously opposed by the Re-
nubicans, the Cortcz elected him King on
She 10th OF November, 1870, On the 4th Of
December he formally accepted the throne,
and in the beginning Of the new year, 1871,
he was received 10 Madrid with great en-.
tausiasm Although his ministry was sus.
tlinel by decided majority in the new
elections, they were compelled to resign in
few months, owing to gross Irregularities
10 the finances. a new cabinet with
Gorilla, a Progrcssista leader, as prime
munster, was formed, and for awhile ad.
min-terd the government successfully. A
loan Of thirty million Of dollars was effected
very promptly and tour which the King
made through the provinces seemed to in
dicito his popularity in a very marked de-
gree lie was, however, soon again EN-.
oarra~ed by ministerial complications. To-
rila gave way to Malcampo, and great
political excitement prevailed until Deem
Der, when new cabinet was formed under
the leadership Of Sagasta, with Topete as
Minister of the Colonies. Soon after a
truce was formed between Spain aud the
Spanish Republics, with which nominal
war had been sept up for some time The

predecessors, sanctioned the savage acts OF
Na.maseda, aud regarded with indifference

standing the efforts he has made to inaugu
rate wise government in Spain, these facts
will cast an indelible stain upon bis admin
iatration. His hesitation and indecision in
regard TO slavery in the colonies will not
foe remembered to his credit, though it can
not be denied that he was ready to enforce
any project Of emancipation which the
Cortcs might adopt. During the past year
his kingdom has been greatly disturbed by
Carlist Instructions and once he narrowly
escaped assassination. The ministry, also,
has undergone further change, Sagasta Civ

premiership during most of the year up to
