1t is a nice question that Judge
Hancock, of Texas, presents in
regard to Colorado, as follows:
The Constitution entities each
State to a number of Electors
equal to the whole number of Sen.
ators and Representatives TO
which the State may be entitled
in Congress? II it is the present
Congress, which canvasses the re-
turns, Colorado is not entitled 10
any Senators Or Representatives
in it, and consequently no Elec-
tor. Should the election of Pres
Iident, for any Constitutional
cause, go to the House of Repre-.
sentatives, Colorado would have
no vote. Why, any more, should
she now have vote in the Elec-
torsl College?
Then if she has no vote in the
! Electoral college, the number of
votes therein is reduced to 500 in.
stead OF 1863, and Tilden having
received an undisputable MAORI
lty of the whole lS4 votes. is clear.
ily elected, without South Carolina,
louisiana or Florida.

DR.. c. MoLANE'S
CELEBRATED
LIVER PILLS,
Hepa,itis or Liver Complaint,
DYSPEPSIA AND SICK HRApAcRH

Symptoms Of a Diseased Liver.
DAM in the right side, under tho
edge of the ribs, increases on pres
sure; sometimes the pain is in the Ieff
side; the patient is rarely able to lie
on the left side; sometimes the pain
is felt under the shoulder-blsde, and
it frequently extends to the top Of
the shoulder, and is sometimes pais-
taken for q rheumatism in the arm.
The stomach is affected with loss Of
appetite and sickness; the bowels Ia
general are costive, sometimes alter
native with lax; the head is troubled
with pain, accompanied with duh,
heavy sensation in the back part.
There is generally considerable loss
ofmemory, accompanied with pain
full sensation Of having left undone
something which ought TO have been
done. A slight, dry cough Is some
times sn attendant. The patient
complains Of WEAKNESS and debility;
he is easily startled, his feet are coh
OF burning, and he complains Of a
prickly sensation OF the skin; his
spirits are low; and although he is
satisfied that exercise would be benc-
fetal to him, yet he CaA scarcely
summon up fortitude enough to Try
it. In fact, he distruxts every rem
edy. Several Of the above symp-
toms attend the disease, bat cases
have occurred where few Of them To
listed, yet examination of the body,
after death, has shown the LIVER 70
have been extensively deranged.

The military usurpation 10
South Carolina; the attempted
steal of the county of Baker in
Florida; the "fumbling" of the re.
turns in Louisiana, and the vi.
cious lies of Eliza Pinkston, have
settled the character of the agen
cy which can alone declare Mr.
Hayes President. The people
will not be fooled.

The Louisiana thimble.riggers

The Louisiana thimble.riggers,
were expected to make their final
report on Monday. Whatever
the action may be, the country
must not forget that the law Gre
ating this Board requires that it
be composed of representatives of
various political parties. There
was a vacancy in the Board.
The members declined to fill it
with a Democrat. This was the
act of lot of men who had de.
termined upon rascality. Why
should they fear the supervision
of one Democrat in a Board of
five? The country will answer.

In South Carolina the, situation
is more serious than ever. II
was reported Sunday night that
State militia would undertake to
remove Mr.. Wallace, the Demo-
cratic Speaker, from the chair,
AMI eject the Democratic. mem.
bers of the Legislature from
Edge6eld and Laprens. 1t is
said that this movement will be
sustained by the United States
troops, a report which we do not
like to credit. The Louisiana
Returning Board Is engaged in
making up its report. The SEES
sions are private. There is no
longer doubt as TO the decision.
The Packard State ticket is to be
counted in and the Electors Civ
en- to Hayes. No attention is
paid to democratic protests or
Democratic evidence.
There is nothing important
from Florida. There is hardly a
doubt but that the State will be
thrown to Hayes at the last no
ment.
Fayetteville observer. [volume] (Fayetteville, Tenn.) 1850-1966, 1876-12-07

fill the vacancy in the Board by
the appointment of Republican
who would vote with Wells and
Anderson, which would be more
Fl .grant fracture of the law than
leaving the vacancy untitled, and
it is not easy to see how this can
be done, if there is really & dead
lock in the Board. Pinchback,
who leads the colored people of
the State, confesses the defeat of
the Hayes electors, and his posi-
ton will be likely to decide the &C
ton of the two colored members
of the Returning Board. The Re.
publicans are not at peace among
Themselves, the Senatorial wran-
gle separating them into factions.
The disposition toward secrecy,
toward the ruling out Of testimo.
ny, are felt to be suspiciously re-
garded by the country. In each
.of the three disputed Southern
States the Republicans are fearful
that the country will not tolerate
the rascality in either of the 9TH
er. and thus it seems probable that
the Republican scheme to count
out q President will collapse.
1t is announced that a Cabinet
meeting was held Friday to con-
slider the situation. Secretary
Fish declined to support the
President further in the use of
military in South Carolina and
was backed mp by Attorney.Gen-
eral TAFT. After full discussion,
/ the President was made to realize
that lie had goue TOO far; that his
course had been iii violation of
the Constitution; and orders were
issued to General Ruger in Col.
umbia to cease al interference
with the Legislature and use his
troops for police purposes only.
Assuming this to be true, the
muddle will soon be cleared in
South Carolina. The army once
Withdrawn, the Chamberlain usur
pers will subside, and the lawful
Democratic majority will proceed
to administer the affairs of the
State.
The Florida Returning Board
was engaged in presenting testi-
mony to back up their attempted
fraud in Baker and Alachua
counties, but they failed to shake
the damaging facts thus far ad
duoad against them.
! The Louisiana Returning Board,
frightened by the fear Of losing
the CO operation of the negro mem
bers. made some show Of fairness
Friday, and modified the order
relative To the East Baton Rouge
returns. Two boxes from this
parish were opened, aud found to
cpntain 46T ballots for Tilden and
10 for Hayes. The board proba-
bly, rendered its decision Tuesday
night. This is in accordance
with prophecy. The knaves pro-
pose to hide themselves for q sea
son, and then proclaim their theft
of the State at the last hour al
lotted them. The Committee of
Northern Democrats which has
been in New Orleans in the inter
est of fair count has issued an
address to the country. The ad.
dress sets forth the fact that the
State of Louisiana has honestly
voted for Tilden, and that the
result can only be changed bv pal,
pable fraud.

South Carolina is lifted into
clearer light by the proceedings
OF day. Confession was made
that the Republicans lacked IL
lawful quorum in the House
which they pretended 10 organ
ize when, in order to secure an
apparent quorum, they admit
ted Republican delegation
that did not pretend to be cleo
ted-a set of perfunctory rep
resenlatives. The infamous
! lawlessncss of th,ir proceed
ings was denounced in their
own body by intelligent colOred
representatives. Men without
certificates of election, and with
iout claim to election, were pi-
loted by the bayonet into the
hall of the House, while men
with certificates in their hands,
and with the supreme law of
the State behind them emitting
them to seats, were beaten
back by the same bayonets. 1t
is to the credit of the negro that
two full-blooded representatives
of the race at the earliest OPP
Iportunity stood III that lawless
body to denounce it, and to de-
clare that such proceedings, in
famously unlawful, would be
all that is needed to ruin the
Republican party. Meanwhile

an INTERESTING ROBBERY 7RE
AL IN MARYLAND.

AT St Mchael's Md, "a young man nam
ed Jefferson was recently convicted of a
robbery committed in 1865, ten year:
previously. On his trial the Jury disa
greed. The Judge said they would
once proceed to impanel another jury
and have a second trial. Gov. Thomas
counsel for the prisoner, reported, with
the assent of the States Attorney, to
submit the case for trial and decision to
the Court, without jury. The States
Attorney consented to this, and the case
was accordingly submitted. The wit
nesses for the State were then recalled.
The witnesses for the defence were net
recalled, the States Attorney admitting
everything to which they had previously
testified. The case was then submitted
without argument, and the Judge, turn
ing to the Clerk said "Mr Clerk write
guilty" and then sentenced the prisoner
to the penitentiary for four years.
The person robbed was named Day.
He was. an Englishman, and the St.
Michael's Comet and AdVertiSsr relates
of him the following
He claimed by his prophetic genius,
with the use of his astronomical instru-
ments, to be able to foretell coming
events: and an old acquaintance, whose
vetacity is unquestioned, stated that Day
said when Lincoln was first elected Pres.
ident, that he would be elected the Sec
ond time and then be assinated. He
foretold the contest between Monitor and
Merrimac, and drew plans of them long
before they were thought of or the con-
hict occurred.

AS has already been announced All.
H. Stuart and J. N. Opie, of Augusta
county, Virginia, are rival candidates
for the Legislature ofthat State, and made
speeches at political meeting held in
Staunton on Monday. A correspondent
of the Richmond Dispatch says that
among some personal "reminiscences re-
lated by Mr.. Stuart in his speech was
one connected with the peace negotia-
tons of the late Coufederacy that has
never been made public, He read a
note from Hon. Judah P. Benjamin, dat
ed March Is, 1864, asking him to come
to Richmond for an interview with Presi-
ident Davis on business, the subject Of
which was too important to be commit
ed to paper. He ewent and was informed
by President Davis that the Confederate
Congress had voted a secret service fund
of $3, 900 900 in gold, to be used in Great
ing peace sentiment at the North. At
ter looking over the whole country the
President" has selected Mr.. Stuart as
the man for the mission. He was to sail
for Nassau and thence for Halifax, and
there, from the border of Canada, could
operate on prominentmen. The fund of
of 81 1000 900 was to be at his absolute
disposal, and he was not to be required
to furnish vouchers for its disbursement.
Mr.. Stuart declined the tender, and &C.

Book makers were busy last year. The
annual report of the Librarian of Con-
gress shows a considerable increase of
books over former years, Io35o volum-
es having been acquired during the year,
5000 under the Copyright law: The Ii
brary now numbers 263, SOY volumes, be-
sides 10000 pamphlets. The copyright
entries for the year were about $1,000,
and over $I2, 700 in copyright fees were
paid into the Treasury. The Librarian
urges the absolute necessity of more
room and new building. Over $4,000
volumes are now piled upon the floors
In every European nation the Library of
the Government has separate building,
although no similar necessity for it ex-
lists. An appeal is made to Congress
which last year appreciated over $5ooo,-
900, for the temporary purpose of secur-
ing creditable representation of Gov
ernment departments at the Centennial
Exhibition, not to let another year pass
without some provision for shelving the

deeply grateful for the Proofs which ev-
cry day reach me of the approval of my
fellow-citizens. The recent judicial cleo
tions in the first, second and third cir.
cults, canaot be tolerated. They warn
us that the hard-earned triumphs of long

tency which will, unchecked, rise over
our whole State"

THE defeat which the Khedive's army
met in Abyssinia was fearful one. The
Egyptian body was composed of two
thousand men, under Colonel AREN-
DRooP, brave Danish officer. 1t was
surrounded by the Abyssinians, led by
their king, and nearly exterminated. Az
terwards the victors marched to Hamach-
in, which was garrisoned by Egyptian
force, which they scared out of the coun-
try,so that Abyssinia is now free from the
invader, It's immunity will not last long,
however, for the Khedive has new
army of 10000 men on the way to the
seat Of war. The commander in chief of
the Egyptian forces, RATIB PAsHA, goes
with it. Elephants, imported from In
dia, are shipped to carry cannon over
the mountains, as the English did in
1868. A number of Americans and Eng
lish officers are on the staff. The re-
suit will be watched with deep interest.
