DAVID DUDLEY FIELDS OPINION
David Dudley Field, of New York. has
given his views regarding the powers
Of Congress in counting the electoral
vote. He believes that the two Houses
have under the Constitution the power
to reject the vote of any State which it
may regard as illegal or invalid, inde-
pendent of any rule. A rule simply
establishes a mode of procedure and
obviates all doubt when the time
comes for counting. He regards the
President Of the Senate merely as the
recipient and custodian of the electoral
votes, who is to preside while they are
counted under the direction of heSen-
ate and House of Representatives. In
his opinion the two Houses have com
plete power in the premises, and must
decide as to the validity OF the votes
in case question is raised.

THE NEWS.

Several items of interest will be
found in Jul dispatches this morning.
The Sup eme Court of Florida has or.
dered a Q anvass Of the vote in
that State. This action, it is said, gives
the State to Tilden and the entire Dem
ocratic State ticket.
MI. Ferry is reported as having pos
lively asserted that he will not attempt
to decide contests in the electoral ote
This may be construed as another
favorable straw for Tilden.
A great many of the infiuen-
tial Democratic members of Congress
discountenance the action of Governor
Grover and the whole Oregon business.
This is what the SENTINEL has claimed
all along should be done.
The rumored massacre of Major
Randall is discredited at Washington.
Chamberlain's South Carolina Legis-
lature adjourned sine die on Friday.
Small pox and diptheria are increas-
ing at a fearful rate in San Francisco.

Continued the count until Wednesday
morning, when l got sick and wanted
to quit. Bederick and Flower said the
counting had to go q. Other put
siders said stick them up and make
them go on. Consider this a threat.
About ten O'Clock Flower said he coIld
not continue. Lederick said that tie
count had to go on or he would take
charge of the counting. Threats like
these above mentioned were made sew
'erai times during the day that the
votes were counted. | objected to tally
the sheets. They did not correspond,
lacking some five or six votes. When
I objected, some gentleman came in
and sat down at the table and showed
his revolver. They finally adjusted
the tally sheets with his assistance,
and I signed them because l feared for
my life. They had more pistols.

NO PAPER.

Christmas occurs this year awk-
wardly for daily papers. We very
much dislike to go over to Wednesday
without an Issue, but 1t seems un-
avoidable, inasnuoh as it will be i'm
possible to obtain dispatches before
Tuesday. Monday is a legal holiday
and the employees Of the Tele-
graph Companies throughout the
country are privileged to observe it as
such. These things, taken in connec-
ton with the further fact that the
SENTINEL force Is also DESTROYS Of
participating In the festivities of the
season, render it necessary to state
that no paper will be issued from this
office until Wednesday morning. In
the meantime the SENTINEL wishes its
readers, n and all, A MERRY
CHRISTMAS.

are in about as awkward a predica-
ment rs the people of New York
would be if they had to conduct their
law business in New Orleans. At the
same time the future of the Territory
may not be considered hopeless since
it already has as many inhabitants as
Minnesota had when ex Senator RAM
sey went to st. Paul to organize a Ter
I.itory, and Minnesota at that day was
thought to be az uninhabitahle as
Huron is now.
The Tribune says it has authority for
the statement that John Kelly will re-
tire from the leadership Of Tanmany
on January first.
1t has been definitely ascertained
from Ferry thai he does not intend to
decide which are the correct returns
from the States where there are two
sets of electoral returns; much less
does he u any right to count
tile same.

WHAT BOB INGERsOLL SAYS.

The Peoria, Illinois, Republicans
had a jubilee the other day and were
addressed by Ingersoll. He said
among other thing: sour success has
sprung from the justice we did in 1864.
The colorsd men, to whom we gave a
vote then, hayS helped US to victory
now. If there Is a Democrat here
give him warning hat Samuel j. Til
den can never be inaugurated. / had
rather see another war than see him
inaugurated through that hound in
Oregon. Rutherford b. Hayes will be
inangurated o the 9Th Of March next.
1t becomes every Republican to stand
squarely, because there are hundreds
of thousands of Democrats, North and
South, who would like to kick up a
muss. While they are doing that they
want to recollect that U. s. Grant is
President, and he has killed more
Democrats than any other man liv-
wing. They want to ~recollect, too, that
the Vice President is a Republican.
They want to recollect that We have

HORACE WHITES VIEW OF IT.

Horace White, the former editor of
the Chicago Tribune, has written to
that uncompromising Republican or.
gan a second letter on the presidential
crisis. Talking of the methods relied
on by Republicans 10 elect Hayes, he
says: There is something almost gro
tesque in the cheers hat are sent up
since the latest decision of Mr.. Wells
aud his Returning Board. Albeit they
have a hollow sound, ons can not help
asking what they signify and what
meaning they carry to the breasts of
intelligent citizens unbiased by the
thought or expectation of official pre-
ferment: The questions such citizens
are asking themselves everywhere are
these: Is the American plan of repre-
sentative government coming to an
end? Has universal suffrage proved a
failure? Is 4. decreed in the book of
fate that the centennial OF our nation
shall inaugurate its dissolution and
decay? Was the Union in as great
danger when Lee was marching on
Gettysburg as it is to-day? If l wefe
an enemy to the Union; if / desired
to see its flag torn to shreds, its honor
trailed in the dust and its name blot
ted out, l should rejoice at what has
been done in Louisiana, and pray that
the action of Mr.. Wells Returning
Board might receive the sanction and
support Of a national party organiza-
ton. For with that precedent estab-
i;shed, with the lie thrust into the del
icate and many-wheeled machinery of
our government, / should feel ure Of
its early destruction. In place of pub
lie discussions and other time-honored
processes of ascertaining the popular
will, we should soon have only the
competition of rival returning boards
and hostile a~fidavits."

can Congress.

LONDON, Doc. %.
In considering how the surplus of
the money of the Geneva award shall
be appropriated, the Times say the
American Congress is perfectly within
its competence. Indemnity was paid
for losses which the United States a. a
whole had sustained and not what in
d%iyiduals sustained. We do not ex
pect any conscience in Congress sensi~
tive enough to inquire whether the
award was TOO high and that the unap-
propriated balance might be returned,
and We should be sorry to see sue a
delicate question raised.
