The character of the present contest has
been such as to confound ali theories founded
upon precedent aud usage. II IA known that ~
electors, whose return Ia not challenged, arc
arraycd on MIR. filden's SHE. and that the ma
Jority Of ono electoral vote needed for the sue
cess Of Mr. HAYES could only be obtained by
"countiug In" upon the Republican side tho
three Southern states OF which we have lately
heard so much. II Is not the Democrats alone,
but many OF the best Republicans also, who
doubt the expcdicucy to say nothing " the
equity. ~ this Counting ill.," There was de-
cisivc mai ,rty for the Democrats OF the votes
actually pollcd In Florida and Louisiana; vet In
those 81 ties tho returning boards were able To
record mai critics for the Republican ticket"
by throwing out large number OF returns. II
may Toe admitted that the Southern Democrats
are no free from the suspicion OF tendency To
violence and CORRUPTION; but 1t Il impossible to
intrust the judicial determination OF such grave
