red in by both housosssof Congress.
When the questions arose during
the first half of the century touch
ing the acceptance or rejection of tho
vote Of States, the returns from
which were irregular, long debates
sometimes arose, which seriously in,
terfered with the prompt announce
ment of the result. TO cut off such
debate, the twenty-second joint rule
of the two houses was adopted in
1865, and re-adopted by each sue
ceeding Congress except the present.
The following is tho text of tho
rule: .... -rt >.
"lf upon the reading of any such
certificate by the tcllers, any qles-
ton shall nliso in regard to tho
counting Of the votes therein certi-
fled, tho same having been stated
by the presiding officer, the Senate
shall thorcupon withdraw, and said
question shall be submitted to that
body for its decision; and the speak
cr Of the house shall. in like manner,
submit the suil question to the
House for it's decision, aud no quos.
ton shall bo decided ;,G,iIlnutlvely,
and no votes objected to shall be
counted, except by concurrent votes
OF the two houses, which being OBJ
tanned, the two houses shallrcassem.
bic, and the presiding officer shall
then announce the decision Of Tho
question submitted and upon such
question there shall be no debate i'll
either house. and any other question
to this object for which the two
houses are assembled, may be subs
mitted and determined in like man
ner." .....
In 1873, electoral votes wero
rejected from several States under
this rule, but it's operation was so
unsatisfactory that the sen
timent at that timo was almost
unanimous not only for it's repeal,
but also for an entire change in
the mode of elocting President. It
was repealed at the last session of
Congress by failure of the Senate
to adopt it.
From this hasty review, it.appears,
Q) that the president of the Senate
has never assumed to determine any
question as to the validity of tho
vote received from any State, but
that when such questions have
arisen, they have invariably been re-
ferred to the two houses Of Con-
gross for their decision.
(2.) That neither house of Con-
gress, by itself, has ever claimed tho
right to reject the vote of any State,
OF to determine, in case two sets of
returns from single State appear,
which of them shall be counted, ex-
cept by authority of the Twenty.
second Joint Rule, which no longer
exists.
g. (3.) That while neither the Con
stitntion nor the laws. of the United
States expressly provide the means
of determining controversies that
may alise in regard to the counting
of the electoral vote of any State,
that power has been exercised by
the concurrent action Of the two
houses of Congress.-N. \. Zri-

A Outrageous Proceeding.

Night before last Mr. Mazyck, q
highly respectable citizen residing
at the corner of Rutlcdgc and
Morris streets, was aroused in the
dead OF night by a noise of some ono
breaking into his house. He quick
ly put on his clothes, and quietly
went down stairs with double
barrel shotgun in his hand, opened
the door on his p azza, and there he
saw negro standing with the
shutter of the window in his hands,
which he had succeeded in wrench
ing from the hinges; he took aim
at the burglar and pul]e>l tho tliy-
ger, but the cap snapped, the burg
lar threw down the shutter and ran,
Jumping over tho banistcr into tho
yard. Tic second barrel was pulled
on him and the fellow ran off, Jump
ing over the fence the place where
he jumped over WIS examined and
blood was on the fence and ground.
The policeman Oh this beat hearing
the report rushed upon tho prcmis-
es, and seized tho gentleman who
was thus protecting bis homo and
tireside from tho dopredations Of
midnight robbers, arrested Mr..
Mazyck, and he was held for the
space of eight hours q prisoner.
Tho burglar was allowed to escape
and 60 off UNDECIDED by this police

home was dragged at night time to
