A Proposed Change in the Mode of Elect.
ing President and Vice.President.

Senator Morton will make report
shortly advocating change in the mode of
electing the two highest offices in the
nation, embodying the following plan:
concurring therein), That the following
article is hereby proposed as an amendment
to the Constitution of the United States,
and, when ratified by the Legislatures of
three fourths of the several States, shall
be valid, to all intents and purposes, as a
part of the Constitution, to- wit:
ARTICLE. l. The President and Vice
President shall be elected by the direct
vote of the people in the manner following:
Each State shall be divided into districts,
equal in number to the number of Rep
resentatives to which the State may be
entitled in the Congress, to be composed of
contiguous territory, and to be as nearly
equal in population as may be; and the
person having the highest number of votes
in each district for President shall receive
the vote of that district, which shall count
one Presidential vote.
II. The person having the highest num-
ber of votes for President in State shall
receive two Presidential votes from the
State at large.
III. The person having the highest num-
Der of Presidential votes in the United
States shall be president.
w. If two persons have the same num-
of votes in any State, it being the highest
number, they shall receive each one Presi-
dental vote from the State at large; and if
more than two persons shall have each the
same number of votes in any State, it being
the highest number, no Presidential vote
shall be counted from the State at large
If more persons than one shall have the
same number Of votes, it being the highest
number in any district, no Presidential
vote shall be counted from that district.
V. The foregoing provisions shall apply
to the election of Vice President.
vi. Congress shall have power to provide
for holding and conducting the elections of
President and Vice President, and estab-
lish tribunals for the decision of such cleo
tions as may be contested.

THE RESOLUTION OF CENSURE.

The Nep York Tri6une's Washington dis
patch on Monday, says, in reference to the
proposed resolution of censure of the Sec
rotary of the Treasury and his associates:
The nearest and most conspicuous friends
of the Administration have caused the
information to be conveyed to members of
the Ways and Means Committee that the
Committee were held responsible for the
retention of Mr.. Richardson in the Cabinet.
The case Of Mr.. Richardson excites the
warmest sympathy among his Cabinet as
sociates and Senators, and it is positively
asserted by them that he would have retired
some time ago had it not been for the
repreaches cast upon him by the Ways and
Means Committee in connection with the
Sanborn inquiry. The assurance has also
come to members of the Committee from
Senator having the most intimate and
cordial relations with the President, that
the Secretary will retire from office before
the first of June.
These facts are used as arguments against
the proposed censure of Mr.. Richardson by
resolution from the Committee. To pre-
vent the reporting of such resolution to
the House the most urgent and solctous
efforts are being made by high officers,
which include members of the Cabinet,
Senators, Representatives, Assistant Secre-
taries, and others having any influence.
The Committee is besieged on all Sides
The original resolution, which il simple an
unqualified censure, was drawn by Mr..
Kasson. Mr.. Roberts, although he will
vote for the resolution, preferred milder
form, which would embrace the language
OF the the report on the Sanborn business.
The Committee did not approve of the
change, apd it will now be seen whether
they will be moved from their purpose and
recede from their action at the bidding Of
partisans.
Such a pressure as that on behalf of the
Secretary, the Assistant Secretary, and the
Solicitor, has rarely been made, and every
body in Office who can influence vote in
the House is in requisition. The whole
House, on both sides, has been canvassed,
and it is said that the resolutions will not
receive third of the votes. 1t is claimed
that only two members from New York,
Messrs. Ellis H. Roberts and Merriam, will
vote in favor of censure. What is now
sought by the Administration is to smother
the resolution in the Committee. The
members of the Committee, on their part,
say that it is matter for the House to
decide; that the question will be brought
before them, and the conduct Of these
gentlemen in the Sanborn matter fully
explained. If, then, the House wants to
put itself on recorded as against the united
recommendations of Committee like the
Ways and Means, the members therefore
will not object; they will have done what
their duty required. 1t is said that Mr..
Dawes, will, when the resolutions are pre-
sented, move to strike out the name of Mr..
Richardson, on the ground that even the
Committee does not believe he has been
guilty of any dishonest conduct.

Intoxicating liquors shall be, upon convic-

Church. This action will be sent round
to the local conferences, and if the major.
ity of three-fourths concur it will become
law. AS test of the feeling in the con-
ference, one of the most prominent men,

ference, declared himself in favor of this
special legislation, even If it struck $4,000

the Methodist Conference will probable
have more permanent effect in behalf of
temperance than the more demonstr.stive

DEDICATION OF THE NEW METHODIST

procured by the I" Baltimore Methodist
Association for the Promotion of Holt
ness" to replace the one blown down in
October last on Belair lot, in the northeast
ern section of the city, was Wednesday
afternoon presented to the National Camp
Meeting Association and dedicated for re-
ligious worship. The tabernacle is of the
same dimensions as the old one, and the
arrangements in the interior are the same
The stand and pulpit are erected on the
south side, and beside these are the three
tablets which were used in the old taber-
nacle, inscribed as follows, respectively,
"Be ye hole," Holiness to the Lord, p
and "Mighty to save" verses of Scrip
ture appearing underneath. The opening
services begun at O'Clock, when about
two thousand persons were presens in the
congregation, and, perhaps, thirty Metho-
dist clergy of the city occupied the stand,
together with Rev. John S. fnskip, Rev
VIM. Mcdonald, Rev. Ga9A Hughes and
the venerable Father Seymour Coleman, of
the National Camp Meeting Association.
The opening hymn was the one eommenc-
ing "There is a Fountain" after which
Rev. DR.. France prayed. Their Meetings
will continue till Thursday next.

A NATIONAL SCANDAL.

The revelations brought to light in the
Sanborn examination have placed Secretary
Richardson, and his Deputy Sawyer and
Solicitor Banfield in such position as to
make their continuation in the Treasury
Department national scandal, and yet it
is said the President refuses to dismiss
them, because the press and people de-
nounce the tryo as dishonest and incompe-
tent; and committee of the House pro-
poses to report resolution of censure.
Officers who are not competent to prevent
the Treasury from being publicly robbed
as these officers allege they were not, in the
matter of the Sanbern contracts, it would
seem, should be compelled to vacate in
double quick, as soon as such incompet-
ency or dishonesty as is laid at their door
become manifest. The people generally,
and all parties are growing very tired of
such proceedings by the administration.
If General Grant allows things to proceed
in the way they have been doing, it will
grow as hot for him before he quits the
White House as it did for Andy johnson.
Persistent obstancy in manifestly wrong
course, to the sentiment Of the whole ma
ton, any man ought to know better than
to attempt. In the matter of determining
financial policy the Treasury never be-
fore had so weak a Secretary, and as bus
mess manager, never so incompetent one
as the present incumbent. Does not the
President see that he is injuring his per-
sonal popularity, and inflicting grievous
injury to the business of the country by
retaining Richardson and his associates?
