In like manner Irepeat my recommendations
that some means be provided for the hearing
and determination OF the Just and subs isting
claims of aliens upon the government of tho
United States within a reasonable limitation,
aud Of such as may hereafter arise. While by
existing provisions Of law the court OF claims
may be in certain cases resorted to by an alien
claimant the absence OF any general provisions
governing such cases upon recognized, liked
aud settled principles, either provides no rem
coy iii many deserving cases or compels a
consideration of such claims by Congress or
the executive departments of the government.
1t is believed that other governments are in
advance of the United States upon this ques-
tion, and that the practice now adopted is en-
tirely unsatisfactory

The Message.

The eighth and last annual message of Presi-
dent Grant will be readwith great interest. Its
recommendations are in the main marked by
the strong common sense and directness
which characterize our present chief magis-
trate, while the review of the condition of the
country during the year just closing possesses
that interest which always attaches
to road over which we have recently pass
ed. On the suggestions OF the message
we have neither time nor space to dwell this
morning, but bespeak for them a careful
perusal by our readers as containing meat fol
much thought. But the introduction, in the
nature of personal explanation, bespeaks
more than passing comment now. 1t is a
strong, frank, manly appeal to the judgment
of the country upon the acts OF President
Grants administration. That mistakes have
been made he modestly admits, but the dis
tinction he points out between the positions
occupied by the chief magistrate bound by
oath to the discharge of his duties and by
his often irresponsible critics is an important
one, a consideration of which should 60 very
far toward condoning errors of judgment.
We believe the country will receive the ex-
PLANTATION in the same frank and cordial
spirit in which it is given.

Election Notes.

Senator Cooper Of Tennessee has solved the
Presidential conundrum so emphatically that
the country should feel exceedingly gratifed
to him. He says Tlden is "undoubtedly
elected,' and twill take his seat without
trouble" He neglects to say where the seat
will be, which is an important flaw in his So
luton.
The old Democratic anxiety about Col. In
gersoll has broken out again. The New Ha
ven Register hears that there is talk OF send
ing him to the United States Senate from H.
nois, and remarks that his presence in a re-
spectacle body would be as intoerable as a
swearing parrot". Hitherto the trouble
with the colonel has not been so much the
swearing he has done himself, as the amount
he has caused among the Democracy.
The inherent love of the Democracy for a
rumpus of some kind crops out continually,
The same journalists who were wild fol
war till they found out that they would
have to do the fighting themselves are now
yelling for the impeachment of President
Grant. There is just about as much pros.
pect of one event taking place as the other.
The eountry has had its fill of both.
Judge Hoar, on his way to Washington wa:
in New York on Saturday and Sunday as the
guest Of his cousin, Mr.. William NJ. Evarts.
He expressed himself with the utmost ear
nestness as to the scheme for inducing som,
Hayes elector to vote for Tilden. He regarded
the proposal as utterly without justification,
and saw no way in which an elector couI(
thus betray the trust specifically confided I,
him by his constituents without dishonor. III
was quite convinced that the electoral vote O
Louisiana fairly belonged to Hayes.
All of the Tilden journals are charmed will
the suggestion that Hayes elector shall cas-
| his vote for Bristow or some other third can
| didate, and thus secure the election of Tilden
| They don't say much about the election G
| Wheeler at the expense of Hendricks. Th
latter gentleman might talk eloquently Of
the subject.
! If we might be permitted to make mil
and inofensiye observation n this conne(
ton, it would be that the election of Sar
Randall TO the speaSershIp would mean mis-
chief.-Cincinnati Commercial.
The Portland daily press., 1876-12-06

The Nation and the Springfield Repubi-
can are agreed now that the way to elect Til
den is by inducing some Hayes elector to vio-
late his moral obligations and vote for third
man, thus securingithe choice of Tilden and
wheeler. The Nation unfolded this project
ln an ingenious article last week. The Re-
publican promptly indorses it with this
amendment: "The suggestion is equally
good tor the other side. A few Democrats or
few Republicans, who will vote for the 9TH
er man, can give us a satisfactory President
on the 9th OF December. The great body of
the American people have ceased to care
much whether it is Hayes or Tllden. The
most they want now is that the question shall
be settled speedily and fairly, and in way
not to harm the Republic either in our own
hearts or in others eyes,"
The proofs of illegal voting in Hamilton
county, and particularly in Cincinnati, last
October, are of the most convincing charac-
ter. The alleged frauds are now being inyes-
tigated. Tuesday one man was compelled to
testify that he was paid $25 for voting five
non-residents in eight different precincts.
When five men cast forty votes for honesty
and reform the cause is bound to prosper.
Mr.. William NJ. Evarts has patent pro-
cess for solving the Presidential,problem He
says thereiis no use in making such a fuss
about the case; that the remedy is perfectly
clear, and that the courts are constantly ap-
plying it. The thing to do is to put the Pres
idency into the hands OF receiver, with DOW
er 20 run the concern and collect the de BITS.
At the state election last month there was
not single Radical vote polled in the county.
In the voting last Tuesday there were two
voted at this precinct, by whom it is un-
known; and it is well perhaps that the two
creatures who attempted to dim our bright
escutcheon should remain unknown.-

May we respectfully inquire what Major
General Gordon, late of the confederate army.
now United States Senator from the COM
monwealth of Georgia, has to do with all the
protests and cards and proclamations issued
in South Carolina? Every one of these doc
uments bears on its face the magic name of
Gordon. Isn't be dipping in his oar a little

THE report that James Russell Lowell, one
of the Republican electors from Massachus-
etts, was the author of the article in the Ma
ton last week arguing for the right of inde-
pendent judgment by electors in the present
complication has been stamped as untrue by
Mr.. Lowell himself. A representative of the
Boston Transcript called upon Professor
Lowell Monday, and gives the following ac-
count of the interview: On hearing,the OBJ
ject of inquiry the professor lighted his meer-
schaum, and seating himself Hospitality with
his caller before an open wood fire, declared
that he was not going to talk about the mat
ter, because he did not think it proper before
the election. When he was chosen elector,
he remarked, he thought nothing about it.
He looked upon his duties in that direction
as merely formal anyhow, and he did not
want that place or any place in politics. He
was annoyed and hampered by being put up
in such partisan position, especially since
candidates of his choice had not been nomin-
ated. But when the charges of fraud by the
Southern returning, boards and the question
of Republican electors so voting as to nulify
these frauds arose, he examined his position,
and without doubt or difficulty came TO the
conclusion that there was but one thing that
be couldsdo, and that was to vote as he was
expected to according to the understanding
with those who nominated and voted for him
as eiector. Three weeks ago he made this
decision and nothing mad modified it since.
He had received a great many letters and
personal appeals from both Republicans and
Democrats begging him to cast his vote indie
pendently and save his country from civil
war. But his only struggle had been as to
whether he was fully patriotic in being so en-.
tirely without doubt as to his duty as he was.
II he were in politics-if he were an ambi-
tious man, the temptation would be great to
east his vote some othcr way tl,sa--tha--svay
he was expected to under the understanding
with those VINO voted for him. But no hon
est man. he thought, could evade the plain
duty of an elector to vote as he was elected to
vote. As for the Nation article, he never
wrote leader for that paper in his life and
had nothing to do with the article in ques-
ton. Professor Lowell is a Hayes man still,
and keeps his mind open and absolutely j1di-
cial as to the matter of fraud in the disputed
Southern states. After reading everything
that comes in the newspapers, he concludes
that man twelve hundred miles away from
the scene of the strife is incompetent to form
an opinion. But whatever may have been
done or may yet be done, it is none of his
business as the representative of the electors
of his district, chosen by them on certain
understanding to do certain thing. He
might wish it were otherwise, but yet he
would be shut up to the understanding with
his constituency. There might be some 9TH
er elector in Massachusetts whose constitu-
ency would approve of change about from
Hayes to Tilden. but such constituency
Prafessor Lowell was very sure his was not,
and he should execute their understood will.
The Portland daily press., 1876-12-06

AT the time Wade Hampton was assuring
President Grant that the Democrats had no
intention to interfere with the electoral vote
of South Carolina his supporters were apply
ing to the courts for authority to prevent the
Hayes electors from casting their votes to-
day. No wonder the people distrust South
ern professions.
