LENCoLN,S VIEWS.

Since the Republican leaders ascer-
tanned beyond doubt that the Return
ing Boards of Louisiana. South Caro-
lima aud Florida, womb be guided by
Zach Chandler, and coant these States
for Hayes at all hazards. they have
advanced the theory that the duties OF
the joint conpentiop of the Senate aud
House of Representatives are mlnlster-
ial only. and gives thea no authorlty
TO throw out States. In february,
1868, this question was before Con-
gress, both Houses being then Repnb-
lican. A joint resolution was passed
declaring that no electoral votes should
be- received from several of the South
era States. This resolution was signed
by President Lincoln. who gave bis
views on the subject in the following
message:
10 the Honorable the Senate and House
Of Representatives,:
Inc 1gInt reSOIutlOu, eutIiitu Jpibi
resolution declaring certain States not
entitled to representation in The elec-

presentation to him. In his own
view, however. the two Houses of Con-
gress convened audar the twelfth
article of the Constitution. haze com
plete poteer to exclude from counting all
electoral votes deemed by then. illegal.
And it is not competent for the execu-
tvs TO defeat or obstruct that power by

or were at ali essential in the matter.
He disclaims all right Of the Executive
to interfere IN any soay IN the matter OF

and he also disciaims that by signing
said resolution he had expressed auy
opinion on the recitais of the pream-

Ir is announced that the face of the
returns in Florida gives Hayes 43 ma
jority. The Republican organs declare
at once that the State is sure for Hayes,
and that the face of the returns must
be accepted as fnal. The face of the
returns In louisiana give Tilden that
State by about 5000 majority. but our
Republican prints fail to see that the
face of the returns settle it in that
case.

TRADE DOLLARS.

The trade dollar is once more at par
in. San Francisco. Twenty of them
are worth a twenty dollar gold piece
to-day and they rate several cents
higher ia the market than smaller sill
yer coins. They have nearly all been
bought up by spectators who pur-
chased them at discount OF from four
to ten per cent. A year ago the minis
ct Carson and San Francisco were
coming them by the wholesale, for
mining companies, and in fact any.
body and everybody who deposited
bullion for that purpose. When the
country was flooded with them and the
employees of corporations who had
been paid with them at par, held them,
the sharpers of San Francisco raised
an outcry against them, and sent them
down to 80 cents each. The business
men of Storey county followed in the
footsteps of the San Franciscans and
refused them at more than that price.
The minis were ordered to stop coming.
and brokers began to buy them
at a discount, and the result now is that
trade dollars in San Francisco sell at
par fer gold.

EFFECT OF ADVERTISING Last eve
ming we received an advertisement rel
alive to large mule that was supposed
to have been stolen from the ranch of
Thomas Nelson, near Stone House,
few days ago. Mr.. Nelson authorized
us to offer $50 reward for the mule and
$500 for the arrest of the thief. Just
as the printer began on that ad. dis
patch was sent US from Battle Noun
tain informing US that the mule walked
right up to its owner in the streets of
Battle Mountain. This is only another
illustration of the effect of advertising.
