In reference to the growth of the
Roman Catholic Church in America,
it is stated that 100 years ago there
were not more than twenty-five priests
IN the United States; in 1900 there
were supposed to be forty: in 1880 the
number had risen TO 232. and in lS4S
to 500. In ten years. from 1862 to
1872, the number of priests had more
than doubled, having grown from D
3l7 to 4,S09. In 1875, according to the
official statistics of the various do
ceses, there were 5,0Tt priests. 1878
ecclesiastical students, and 6,52s
churches, or chapels of the Roman
Catholic rite within the territory of
the Republic. There were also in the
same year, thirty-three theological
seminaries, siXty-three colleges, 557
academies and select schools, l,645
parochial schools, PA asylums. and
ninety-six hospitals under the author
ty and control Of the Roman Catholic
clergy of the United States. Suggestive
rs arethese figures, the Church of Rome
can point to others almost equally sug-
gestive in English contemporary his
tory. Thus, in sixteen years. the num-
Der of Catholic chapels in Great Brit
ain was more than doubled, there
having been $40 in 1851, and 1888 in
1867.

THE ed JOINT RULE.
How Shall the Vote be Counted
Next February.

The twenty second joint rule of
Congress, which has been of late
the subject Of so much discussion.
was adopted February.6, 1865. It
provided that the two Houses of
Congress should meet in the House
of Representatives, the President of
the Senate presiding, on the second
Wednesday Of February succeed
ing the meeting OF Presidential
Electors, to count tic vote by tell
ers, one for the Senate and two for
the House. If on reading any Of
the certificates a question as to
counting the votes it certified arose,
the same having been stated, the
Senate should withdraw and each
House of Congress decide upon it.
No vote objected to should be
counted unless by the concurrent
vote of both Houses. In other
words, either House could throw
out the vote of any or every State
in the Union. This rule obtained
at the counting Of the Presidential
vote of 1865, 1869 and 1873, and
popular attention was first called to
it few weeks since by Mr.. John
W. Forney, who in a violent speech
expressed his fear lest the Demo
cratic House next February should
reject the vote OF such States as
South Carolina, and so count Mr.
Tilden in.
At the last Session of Congress
the Senate expressly resolved to re
scind this rule and it is not now
binding. 1t will therefore become
necessary for the two houses to
make a new rule to govern them il
this case, or else fall back upon the
plain letter of the Constitution and
former precedent before the 22d rule
was adopted. There would be nc
difficulty at all about the matter i
somebody did not want to act thC
scoundrel. The 22d rule was crea
ted by the Radicals for fTaudulen-
purposes, was repealed for the same
purpose, and now that its repeal has
been effected with the unanim on:
consent of the Democrats, they re
greet it. They did not expect to be
come the directors themselves
They would reinstate the 22d rule
if they could, but cannot and dare
not. Thus does villainy come home
/ TO rOOst.

Another Lection Possible.

RALEIGH, N. c., Nov, 13-In an
interview just had with United
States Senator Merrimon, a member
of the Senate Committee on Rules,
he states that the twenty second
joint rule providing that the electo-
raj vote Of any State shall be set
aside upon the objection of either
House, although rescinded on the
Senate, may yet beinsisted upon by
some as continuing in force, since
the House of Representatives, by
whose concurrence this rule was
originally adopted, did not join in
this abrogation. The Republican
Senators may insist upon the Rec
ognition of the twenty second rule
as still operative, anil object to
receiving the vote of Louisiana
The Democratic House would
probably thereupon object to the
reception of Ohio. The Senate
then objects to North Carolina,
which the House resents by object
ing to Pennsylvania. This process
may 90 on until the electoral vote
of every State is thrown out, thus
making last Tuesdays election a
complete nullity. The election Of a
President could not, then, as might
be supposed, go to the House, since
there would be no two highest can
didates to choose from. A new
election of President and Vice Pres
ident must then he ordered, in pur-
suance of sections LAT, 148 and 149
Of title 3, chapter 1, revised statutes
of the United States.
An important question arises
here: Who shall occupy the Presi-
Dental Office in the interim, since
the vacancy supposed does not
come nnder the four cases of re-
moval, death, resignation, or inabil-
ity, provided for by Section 146 Of
the above named Chapter, which
authorized the President of the
Senate to act as President? It is
manifestly casus oBaissus. If the
rule be regarded as repealed, the
counting of the vote Of the Eleeto-
raj College viii be regulated solely
by the provisions of Section 3 of
Article , Of the Constitution of the
United States, in the absence of
any statute of Congress made IN
pursuance of it, it is subject to va
rying and conflicting Interpretation,
which viii readily suggest them
selves to the reader Of it.

PHILADELPHIA, PA, Nov. 10.-The

sent out about noon to-day by Pres
ident Grant:
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Nov. loo
Gen. ". T. Sherman, Washington. d.
c.: Instruct Gen. Augur in Louis
Iana and Gen. Ruger in Florida to
be vigilant with the force at their
command to preserve peace and
good order, and to see that the
proper and legal boards of canvass
ers are unmolested in the perform
ance of their duties. Should there
be any grounds of suspicion of a
fraudulent count of either side, it
should be reported and denounced
at once. No man worthy of the Of
fee of president should be willing
to hold it if counted in or placed
there by fraud. Either party can
afford to be disappointed in the re
suit. The country cannot afford TO
have the result tainted by suspicion
of illegal or false returns.

TROOPS ORDERED By THE PRESIDENT.
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 10.--Zo Gen
Sherman, Waskington, D. c.: Send
all the troops to General Anger
which he may deem necessary to
insure entire quiet and a peaceable
count of the ballots actually cast.
They may be taken from South Car
DINA, unless there is reason to sus-
pect an outbreak there. The pres
ence of citizens from other States,
I understand, is requested in Lou
isiana to see that the board of can
vassers makes a fair count OF the
votes actually cast. 1t is to be
hoped that representative and fair
men of both parties may go.
u. s. GRANT.
These orders seem fair upon their
face, but when considered in the
light of the fact that the whole
thing is a preconcerted scheme, the
deep and damning villainy is appa-
rent. Besides, the military ls,nos a
mere police force to preserve order.
Its services are only legally en-
ployed to suppress violence, and
there has not only been no violence
but not even a threat or any indica-
ton of violence. A more peacea-
bic election was never held In Amer
lea. The troops are to be used
only in extreme emergencies, and
then only as an auxiliary to the
civil authority. Grants orders
leave the whole question in the
hands of the military, giving them
both Judicial and executive author
ity. "Under these orders the mill
tary commanders in Louisiana and
Florida are authorized to determine
what might be the very intricate
question of what constitutes the
proper and legal board, and what
probably VIII be the delicate, i'm
portant and technical question con
corning ballots actually cast. .
The whole thing is revolutionary,
violent and unconstitutional, though
adroitly worded and eunningly de
vised.
