had suddenly sprung INTO prominence
as bold and inscriptions leader.
Fhe deadlock was broken on the
thirty-eighth ballot, when Jefferson
got Vermont, New York, New Jersey,
Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia,
North Carolina, Georgia, Kentucky
and Teunessee-ten States. Burr got
New Hampshire, Massachusetts,
Rhode Island and Connecticut-four
States. Delaware and South Caro-
lima voted blank. This contest made
wildly apparent the necessity of some
law or rule requiring the electors to
state the Office as we'll as the man for
whom they voted, so that the tellers
might know which was for President
and which for Vice. Therefore, as
soon as Congress met in December,
1903, the twelfth amendment to the
constitution was proposed, requiring
separate votes, SO certified, for the
two. offices. The amendment was
ratified and proclaimed September
Is, 1904, in time for the Presidential
election of that year. The election
of 1904 was almost informal. OF
176 votes Jefferson had 1852, and
George Clinton for Vice President
the same. The other fourteen we're
for Charles Coatesworth Pinckney
and Rufus King. There was nothing
of consequence about the counting,
the President of the Senate, how
ever, for the first time did not read
the certificates. but broke the seals
and handed them to one of the tel
lers, who read the contents. On this
occasion the geographical order OF
the States was officially recognized.
On commencing the presiding officer
said:-" Perceiving no cause for pref
erence in the order of opening the
returns I will pursue a geographical
arrangement and begin with the

L X - laura Ream1 who has for a
year CT two past been writing up Senator
Morton FOR the Presidency, "gOeS" for Mr..
Blaine in yesterdays C54ci1pI'j CJHmarcidl
in way to indicate that the Morton bate
Iies are 20 be IeveIef, more especially, upon
HAT rival aspIrant for the Office. She writes
6frOm Washington that the little round OF
reclamation which followed Mr.. Blaine's
amnesty tilt has been succeeded by a reac-
ton OF disapprOva!," that his speech was
s'dif,Tent from MOrtOn's Mississippi
speech that "MOrtOn has undertaken a
legitimate work the investigation and cor
IectiOn of existing abuses" that "noboiy
can forget that in all the years Blaine was
IN the majority OF the House nc made no
oGCTt for the relief OF Union men in the
South, while il was MOT;oL's untiring tasB;'
and she goes on to complain thai Blaine is
trying 10 steal MOTtOn's thunder, and "to
get the in-track on him" The she charges
BlsiIe with playing court 20 the press"
''ArOtner trick" OF his she says. is impress
1rg c'gqDers from the III fFrrent Departments

another. and his last card. is the ..dispens-
Ing OF Vice Presidential favors. The mega
tive position is held up TO Secretary Bris-
lew, Pro ten. Ferry, Oslesby and Ingalls,"
IDSn, again, she charges against Mr. Blaine
nat nobody can tell what to think Of him
from his conversation. mat he is not open
aid childllke like lGr Morton; that his
tax i a succession o. oratOric3l sayings,
NtlcL are as unaIs weTabIe as church dog
ma ," while Mr.. Morton talks with the free
dom and simplicity Of "a child Then she
W-rCs u Oy a Comparison OF the personal
Gains Of the two candidates, which Is
very gathering 10 Mr.. Morton and very
damaging 10 Mr.. Blaine. Putting"
SIZE says tie question OF leadership "a
granted To Morton entirely aside, (which
coEceCes to Morton superior Intellectual
TisOr,} excepting in Inability to walk, Nor
sou has the physical advantage OF Blaine.
HIS general health is evidently better, and
be has none OF the uasee,nIy marks Of high
living peculiar 10 Blaine She sees every
sign OF impending aPOplexy in the appear
3nce OF Mr.. Blaine. He is getting stout
and pudgy" and partially bald" ant his
face is fluffy" On the whole, she thinks
1t " would not be at all surprising If Morton
attended his funeral" y nd IL ia quite evil
dent that the gentle Laura would cheerfully
assist to have the corpse really a. the time
appointed for the procession TO start. Bat
possibly her eyes are jaundicei by her
predictions Mr.. Blaine does not look like
an aiIing man. His friends don't seem to
have any approximations on his account; aud
we are quite certain that his alversaries In
the House have failed TO detect any signs of
decay in his powers.

The FOrty-third Congress passed an act for
the protection Of Italian children from the
ciuelties Of the padroni system, but few. If
any, arrests have been made under it In this
City. Is il not about time our authorities
took this matter in hand and rescued the
little waits seen every day on our streets
playing musical instruments, from their
heartIess taskmaSters, the padrOli, who are
supported IN idleIess by these children To
keep these little ones on the streets from
eRIly morning until late st night, shiver.ag
and half frozen, is "a inhumanity which
ought not TO be tolerated for a moment in a

II the Senate, yesterday, Mr. Morton gave
notice that he would 20 day bring up he oil I
stare -hy, the Pix chback question. 1t is to

The Daily clarion. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1866-1888, 1876-03-21

1t is rumored that the late treasurer
of Alcorn University, S. j. Ireland, did
not turn over all of the fund belonging
to that institution as required by law,
and that the reason assigned was that he
loaned it to the Republican State Execu-
tive Committee for political purposes and
he had not been able to recover it. These
are grave charges, duplicating not only a
prominent official, but the highest author
tiles OF the Radical organization, in the
surreptitious use of public moneys.
These reports have come to us through a
very direct channel. Mr.. Gibson. of
the House, has offered resolution of in
quiry which will bring the facts to light.
The public are awaiting it with no little
concern

Opinion of the court by SIMRALL, Gu. j.
This was an action of election brought on
by plaintiffs in error against defendant in
error.
The plaintiffs claimed the land in con-
troversy as heirs OF Lloyd Temple deceased
The defendant claimed under sale ade
by the Probate Court of Franklin county
also under deed mad bS the Auiiior OF
Pubic Accounts 10 bin, November 10th.
1871, reclting tiiat the land nad been sold t.
the STATE for The taxes OF 1868.
The record OF the Probate court was ex-
cluded as evidence objection to this ruling
being raised only 10y d motion tor new
trial. sa
The plaintiff offered evidence TO show that
the land was sold tor military taxes in 1868
which was excluded, Oh motion of tie de-
fendant. 1he Court instructed the Jury
that the Auditors deed Was prined t0cie
valid, and could only be attached for fraud
or mistake in the assessment or sale The
order overriding the motion tor a new trial
IS contained only in The bill OF exceptions
lie Judgment below was tor defendant
in eieetment. Held
L. The grounds stated in the motion for y
new trial cannot be considered by the Court.
for the reason that the order of the Circuit
Court Overrullng the motion is only certi-
fed in the bill OF exceptions All the or
ders of the Court should be certified in the
record proper.
IL. The recital in the Auditors deed that
the land had been sold for taxes was moi
evidence OF the fact of such sale, this deed
Was GUY one link i'll the defendants claim
OF title.
