COUNTING THE ELECTORAL VOTES
1t is copjectured by some persons that il
Hayes be elected the House Of Repre-
sentatives will contend that the joint
rules are still in force, including the
twenty-secord joint rule, which provided
that in case of disagreement by the two
houses as to counting the vote of any
State the vote should be thrown out
This conjecture, however, is without
foundation, for there caa be no joint
rules except by agreement of both houses.
On this point the author of Barclays
Digest" the very best authority in such
cases, will say in his next edition of Che
Digest:
"Wheneyer the two houses may fail tu
adopt for the Congress the joint rules OF
preceding Congress, (Which frequently
occurs,) it would seem, under the author
ity conferred by the constitution upon
each house, (article l, section 5, TO de-
termine the proceedings to be the un-
doubted right of each house, at pleasure,
to decline further acquiescence in the
enforcement of any one or all of them
And hence, although the join, rules as
acquiesced in during the Forty-third
Congress appear in this Digest, the
following proceedings during the first
session of the present Congress would
seem to indicate that no joint rules are
now in force"
There have been other close elections
but none so peculiar as this. In 1877
John Adams Was elected by three votes.
Jefferson in 1901 received 73 votes and
Burr 73 votes, and the question had tc
be decided in Congress. In 1872 there
was difference of only II votes between
Madison and Clinton. In 1914 Polk was
elected by the electoral vote of New
York, the popular majority in that State
being only 5000. In 1S4S Taylor wa:
elected over Cass by only 10 electoral
votes. Various instances are known
where State elections have depended Oh
100 votes or less, and the case of Marcus
Morton, chosen as Governor of Massa'
chusetts in 1885 by majority of asingle
vote, has long been famous. But despite
other instances of close elections this
Presidential contest is perhaps the most
remarkable on record. And not cnly Rol
its closeness, but for the time consumed
in settlement, at period when science
claims to have annihilatcd time and
space.

The American People.

No people in the world suffer as much
18th Dyspepsia as Americans. Although
years of experience in medicine had failed
to accomplish certain and sure remedy for
this disease and its effects, such as Sour
Stomach, HEARTBURN, Water-brash, Sick
Headache Costiyeness, palpation of the
Heart, Liver Complaint, coming up of the
food, low spirits general debility, etc, yet
since the introduction of GREENS AUGUST
FLOWER we believe there is no case of Dys-
pepsia that cannot be Immediately relieved.
Of failure reported. Go to Your Druggists,
Wilhite & Williams, and get a Sample Bottle
for 10 cents and try it. Two dose will re-
lieYe you. Regular size IS cents.

SPECIAL NOTICES.
A Scene i'm q Church.

There was ludicrously sudden descent
from the sublime to the ridiculous in coun-
try church, not thousand miles off, when
a clergyman, preaching on the miseries en-
tailed by sin, suddenly exclaimed, ''Thank
God, am not sufferer; my miseries have
all been healed, and what did it?" The
change of tone started one of the deacons
from drowsy mood, and springing from his
feet, he cried out, 'TuTT's LIVER Pills.
The deacon was right in his estimation of
this celebrated medicine. They will certain
ly cure your 'miseries" if they result from
Dyspepsia Torpid Liver, Chills, Headache,
Loss of Appetite, Nervousness, Desponden-
cy or General Debility. Take the deacon's
advice and try them.

H@~ Simpson & Sadler are giving
away q handsome book entitled "Pearls
for the people," containing much valua-
BILE information and many interesting
articles. 1t also contains a history of the
discovery of the "Hepatine," for diseases
of the liver, dyspepsia, constipation and
indigestion, &c, and gives positive assu-
rance that when the Hepatine is used it
effects permanent and lasting cure of
these diseases, which prevail to such an
alarming extent in our country. Take
the Hepatine for all diseases Of the
liver.

amount of courage to enable her to un-
cover her face, and see that the great eyes
that had so frightened her belonged to
John Patterson.
It is strange that neither she nor John,
during the half hour they tarried under
the apple tree, thought of Hetty or the
gun she had gone to bring.
Perhaps neither would have remem-
bered Hetty's boasted nerve in connec-
tion with the use of that weapon again,
had not the young lady herself, two years
later, reminded q certain happy bride
groom and his equally happy bride of the
incident, and Informed them that she
knew all the time that John was in the
hogshead, as she saw him put himself
there, and that her part of the conversa:
ton under the apple tree was INDUCED
in solely with a view to encourage the
bashful lover to propose.
Mrs. John Patterson scolded her cousin
bridesmaid for her duplicity, but for all
that it was plain to be seen that she was
not angry, especially since Hetty had
that day acknowledged that she was glad
to class her cousins handsome husband
among her friends.
