The Time and Manner of Holding
1t.

The law of Congress requires that the
election of Senator in each State shall be
held on the I'd Tuesday after the meeting
of the Legislature. The Mississippi Leg
islature meets to-day, Tuesday, 4th of
January. Consequently the election will
be held on the second Tuesday from that
day, viz, the 18th OF January. The
law also regulates the manner of holding
the election. 1t is as follows:
SEC. IA. Tie Legislature of each State
which is chosen next preceding the expira-
tion of the time for which any Senator was
elected to represent such State in Congress.
shall. on the second Tuesday after the meet
ing and organization thereof, proceed to
elect a Senator in Congress.-(25 July, 1866,
c. 245, 5. l, V. IA, p. 243.)
SEC. 10 Such election shall be conducted
in the following manner: Each house shall
openly, by a rtUa rOCe vote OF each member
present, name one person for Senator in
Congress from such State, and the
the name of the person so voted for. who
receives majority of the whole mum Der of
votes cast in each house, shall be entered on
the journal OF that house by the clerk or
secretary thereof; or if either house fails to
give such majority on that day, the fact
shall be entered on the journal. At twelve
O'Clock, meridian, on the day following, that
on which proceedings are required to take
place as aforesaid, the members of the tw 20
houses shall convene in joint assembly, and
the journal of each house shall then be read,
and If the same person has received major
ity OF all the votes in each house, he shall
be declared duly elected Senator. But if
the same person has not received majority
of the votes in each hous e, or if either house
has failed to take proceedings as required
by this section, the joint assembly shall
| then proceed to choose by riUd rOce vote
of each member present., a person tor Sena-
Tor. and the person who receives a majority
of all The votes of the joint assem- bly,, ma
jOrity of all the mem berS elected to both
houses being present and voting, shall be
declared duly elected If no person receives
such majority on the first day, the joint as
sembly shall meet at twelve O'Clock, meri-
diau, of each succeeding day during the ses-
SION of the Legislature. and shall take at
least one vote, until = Senator is elected
Us July, 1866, c. ? ), S. l, V. ii, p. 43.)
At a reasonable time before the day
fixed for the election, the Democrats and
Conservatives will, no doubt, meet in
caucus and select candidate who will
receive the entire vote Of the party, They
have won the fight, and they alone are
entitled to be consulted in the choice
of officers to be elected by the
Legislature, especially as they will
be held responsible to the people for the
use made of the victory

ONE OF THE PEOPLE

For THE CLARION.
The Act OF Feb. Z, 1872, (Acts 1872. p. GO, )
empowers Boards of Supervisors "to en-
ploy an Advising Attorney. or law firm, at
stated salary per annum, not to exceed
the sum of $500, payable out of the County
Treasury, for objects of general advice as to
current matters in the administration of
the affairs of their respective counties"
1t was singular omiss ion of the Le2is-
lature that they did not, at the same time,
empower Chancellors especially. and some
others, "to employ an Advising Attorney,
or law firm, for objects of general advice as
to current matters in the administration of
the affairs of their Office Some of these
need help.
When this Act of 1872 was passed, very
by Boards ofSupervisors. who knew no more
oftheir duties than they knew of the transit
of Venus. They were as ignorant and in
competent set of men as were those of.
their party brotherhood in the Legislature
That they might protect themselves, if pos
sible, against the punishment of the law, the
Legislature gracfously gave them the hene-
fit of this Act. How wonderfully kind to
take money out of the pockets of the tax
payers, and put it in the hands of these
Boards to employ counsel to guide them in
their duties! So ignorance and incOmpe-
tency have been forced upon the taxpayers
for years at a high premium. Now, this
arrangement is exactly what is not wanted
by those into whose hands almost every de
partment of the government has heen turn
ed over by the people. Retrenchment at
this point will save to the taxpayers the
handsome item of more than $4,000 If
Boards of Supervisors are utterly ignorant
and incompetent, that is their lookout and
misfortune. To bring themselves to the
standard of efficiency, If such thing be
possible, they must pay ont Of their o,gn
pockets for all counsel touching the matters
of the administration of their office. Let
the Act be speedily repealed V.
