Illinois Appoints one ElsctOr for Tilden

Illinois Appoints one Elector for Tnden.
The Monitor, published at Streator, in
this state, directs attention to the extraor-
binary fact that one Castle, or one Castles,
who was one of the Hayes party candidates
for presidential electors IN Illinois, has not
been elected. 1t appears that there are
two Republican" politicians in Illinois of
nearly the same name, both of whom re-
ceived votes for electors. The name of
one is James j, Castles. The name of the
other is Joseph j. Castle. The former
lives IN the southern part of the state;
the latter in the central part of the state
In the southern counties, James j. Castles
was the candidate voted for, and for whom
the votes have been officially returned. In
the central counties, Joseph j. Castle (Who
was an elector OF Grant four years ago.
was the candidate voted for, and for whom
the votes have been officially returned Be
sides these two candidates, the "Republi-
cans" voted for twenty candidates for
electors, all of whom have been elected.
But as Illinois is entitled to appoint only
twenty-one electors, it is plain that the
two candidates, James j. Castles and
Joseph j. Castle, cannot both be elected.
And as neither of those persons received
either a majority or plurality of the votes
cast, it is equally plain that neither of them
is elected or can be lawfully commissioned
an elector.
What, then, is the result? Manifestly,
it is the election of twenty of the persons
named on thelHayes party list, and one of the
persOns-the one who received the great.
est number OF votes-on the Tilden party
list. If two or more candidates on the
Tilden party list received the same mum
Der Of votes, that number being greater
than the number given for either James
j, Castles or Joseph j. Castle, then the
decision as to which of them is entitled Il
be com missioned an elector must be made
in the usual way of deciding in case of the
vote.
What is perfectly plain and unquestion
able is, lst, that the voters of Illinois have
chosen twenty-one presidential electors
and, End, that neither Mr.. James j Castle!
nor Mr.. Joseph j. Castle is one of thu
twenty-one electors lawfully chosen. VIVA
Is also evident from this peculiar result o
the election in Illinois is that when thu
lawfully chosen electors meet and vote fol
president on the first Wednesday in De
cember, the vote will stand thus:
For Rutherford b. Hayes .................2 20 votes
For samuel j. Tden ...................... vote
If, disregarding the choice of the voters
as shown by the official return sheets ant
the ballot themselves (which are required
by law to be preserved) Governor Bever
idge should recognize either Mr.. James j
Castles or Mr. Joseph j. Castle as
lawfully chosen electOr, and the person 81
recognized by the governor in disregard o
the actual facts of the election, officially
certified, and veri6able by the ballots
should vote in the college, it would be /,
sufficient ground to warrant the rejection
by congress of the vote given by that per
son, who not having been elected, coulC
not be lawfully commissioned an elector.-

A Proper Beginning.

Prominent Democrats who have gone to
New Orleans at the request of Mr.. Hewitt,
Chairman of the National Democratic Com
mittee, have formally and in very proper
and patriotic spirit asked a conference with
the Republicans whom Gen. Grant has
asked to go there Also We hall this as
the beginning sof systematic and wise
council Of the statesmen Of both parties, Iby
whom, we do not doubt, means will be
found to provide satisfactory settlement
of all pending difficulties. These Demo
Gratis rightly say that 1t is not to be sup
posed that eithersparty desires to secure
the success of its candidate by means or
results in the least doubtful, and this is
perfectly true. Let US all have patience,
There is wisdom and honor enough in the
country to settle this dispute without diff
Guilty, and with no needless delays.
Among the names signed to the Demo
cratic address are those of many men O
most honorable repute, Of character anC
craftsmanship such as Governor Palmer
ex-senator Trumbull, Judge Stallo, Pro
fessor Sumner Of Yale College, Mr.
Broadhead. William r, Morrison AM
others. We do not doubt that they will b.
promptly met in spirit as fair and hon
orable as their OWN Y. Herald.
A commendable movement towarC
making the count in Louisiana fair one j
found in the proposal of the prominen
Democrats now in New Orleans to tn,
deputation named by the president for
conference as to the measures which ma!
best be taken to secure an honest count
Such conference dand agreement woulC
give this informal gathering a judicial
authority with the people of the north tina
it can never have if it is ldivided into hos
tile parties that embody, instead of seek
ing to remove, bitter partisan spirit. /
would also commit both parties to the issue
of fair canvass, and put an end to ;
controversy Of which the whole country
is weary.-M T.. Tribune.

MARSDEN'S
VICTORY.
CHAPTER Nv.
A VISION OF SIR HUGH.

A VISION OF SIR HUGH.
Many a man who goes on his way
that nothing can alter his
mode Of life-that he has settled !
down into one special groove, and no
matter what happens he will. still con-
tinue in it's often surprised to: find
what an immense difference it makes
to him when he discovers that one
particular woman is beginning to en-
ter into his calculation. He is safe
from any special disturbance Of mind
so long as he divides his feeling and
among number of wom-
en-; but the moment he has the
slightest penchant for one alone he
may make up his mind that his
peace is lost to him forever until he
either wins her, or gives in with as
much grace as he can to a successful
rival. To fight against a growing
partiality for a woman, always sup
posing it to be- genuine feeling, is,
as rule, impossible. We read oc-
casionally Of heroic young men pluck
ing love out Of their bosoms, and
giving up their cherished dreams,
but they are seldom to be met with
in real life. 'There are certain blue
eyes," sings Walter Savage: Landor,
(which insist on your sighs, and the
readiest to;giye them is Jar the, most
|; WISE" Hgis much better to give in
gracefully at the outset, and not
struggle against the: inevitable. If,
feeling that you are taken captive,
you try to delude yourself that you
are free, the result will be only in
creased misery and discomfort, with
submission as the ultimate result in
the case.
And vet that was exactly what
Philip Gaveston did after the inter
view which has just been described.
He had a strong idea-fostered, no
doubt, by his legal studies-that a
man ought to look at both sides Of
the question; as if lovo could be
discussed with the same coolness as a
disputed point of law. Adeline
Marsden had completely fascinated
him. She had possessed a curious at.
traction for him, even before he knew
her; and now the gray eyes had come,
had seen, and had conquered; and
Philip Gaveston found it in hi.
heart to wish that she had been 8
fisherman's daughter instead of an
heiress who: had the power to give
back to him the estates of his ances-
tors. And yet, with this feeling
strong upon him, there were times
when he told himself he had been
tricked that a few frank words were
as nothing when opposed to what had
been the set purpose Of his lite; and
he was not going to make friend
with the hereditary enemy Of hi
house merely because she was a fasci
mating woman. 1t may be imaglnet
that these conflicting did not max,
him any happier; and he grew mood.
and pre-occupied-so much so, in
deed, that DR.. Vincent, meeting hin
one day, and accurately diagnosing
his case, grimly recommended a 70.
eign tour as the very thing to brinl
him round again. 1t should be sal,
that Philip Gaveston had neve,
