So now, the Tilden electors, acting
on the duplicate returns made by the
kellogg officials to the secretary of
State, showing a majority for them Of
8,099, with a certificate of their APP
pointmeut from Gov. McEnery, may
meet and vote for Tilden and certify
their votes while the Hayes electors,
certified by Kellogg, will meet and vote
for Hayes. And If the houses of Con-
gress should act simply upon the Re-
publican precedent of 1872, both votes
will be rejected. IF the House Of Rep
resentatives should, for any cause, re-
solve to count the electoral vote of
that State for Tilden, il would be for

BOTH HOUSES MUST CONCUR.

But, if the counting of the votes be
by the Constitution vested in the two
houses of Congress, it fnllows unavotd-
ably that they must both concur IN the
count.
1t is a necessary and elementary
principle that when a power IS given
to two to be exercised by them con-
Jointly both must concur IN Its exer-
else. IL is the essential feature of our
system of government that both houses
must concur in every act of legislation.
Every such act by one house without
the concurrence of the other is of no
validity. To then give one house the
vital power of determining, alone and
without the concurrence of the other,
the electoral vote, would be against
the whole spirit of our system.
Indeed, when this article of the
Constitution was reported to the Con-
vention by the committee of Eleven,
it provided for the return of the votes
to the president of the Senate, to be
opened in the presence of the Senate
alone, and "then and there counted" !"
and if there was no election the Senate
was to choose the President. This, on
the vote of ten States to one (Dela-
ware), was altered to election in that
contingency by the House of Repre-
sentatives voting by States, and re-

the Senate TO take the responsibility OF
rejecting and refusing to count il. II,
on the other hand, the House alone
should refuse TO count the vote for
Hayes, that responsibility would be-
long to it. If, as some people are
pleased to suggest, either house can
insist on a vote being counted. wo
might then have the vote Of Louisiana
counted both ways, which would give
the election to Mr.. Tilden-l92 to 50.
For it must be the necessary and nom
sensical result Of holding that either
house can count the vote Of State,
that, whenever there are two returns
from State, and the houses do not
agree as TO which IS the real vote OF
the State, its vote viii be counted both
ways.

Things About Parker.

James W. Duncan who lives in tho vi.

northwest Of Savannah, gave us q short
call on Tuesday afternoon last. lie was
on his way to the st. Joseph Exposition,
aud II he sees any o! the improved s.ock
OF hogs down there he considers better
than what he already has. will purchase
some. lie says the Nodaway river has
at last got within its banks, and that the
mill is again running. A great deal of
damage was done by the high water
in drowning the stock, washing away
fences, damaging crops. and the like.
The backwater got around the stacks
of wheat Of Samuel Praisws.ter 50 as to
float them, and he thus lost about 500
bushels OF wheat. The grasshoppers
come down Thursday last in larger
quantities than they did on their former
visit. and are playing destruction with
all things green. They arc eating mp
the cabbage, tho grass. young wheat,
rye, &c. The trees, bushes. and every
thing else are covered with them, and
Of evenings and mornings, the sides of
tho houses and fences are hid from view
by them. They are deposi,ing their
eggs. They extend southward from
Parker about two and half miles.

III him an efficient agent to represent
their Interest in the State Legisla-
ture. His remarks on tho States

edge OF past legislation, and also the
