THE MEMORANDUM

WHEREAS, On al election Of PresI-
dent or Vice President of the United
States questions may arise, Whether an
eIector mas been appointed in such man
ner rs the Legislature of his State
may have directed2 Whether the time
ut which he was chosen, and the day on
which he gave his vote, were those de-
termIned by Congress? Whether he
were not nj the time Senator or Rep
rcscntatlvc OF the United States, or held
an office of trust or profit under the
United Statcs2 Whether one at least OF
the persons he has voted for is an inhab-
liant OF State other than his own?
Whether the electors voted by ballot and
have signed, certified and transmitted TO
the President OF the Senate list OF all
the persons voted tor, and of the number
of votes tor each? Whether the persons
voted for are natural-born citizens or
were CitiZ Ems of the United States vt the
time of the adoption OF the constitution,
were IS yoars old and had been fourteen
Years resident within the United States z
And the constitution OF the United
States having directed that the prtsI-
dent OF the Senate shall, in the presence
Of the Senate and House of Representa-
tives, open all the certificates, and that
the votes shall then be counted from
when is most reasonably interrel that
they are TO be counted by the members
composing the SAID houses and brought
there for that office, no other being as.
i. ba
sonaby, rs thereby the constitutional
weight of each State in the election OF
taose hlgn officers is exactly preserved IN
the tribunal which is 10 judge ot It's valid
Ity, the number OF senators and represen-
tatlves from each State composing the
sail tribunal being exactly that oil the
electors OF the same State.
BE it therefore emaeted, Here insert
the former clause.
Provided, That the certificate of the
executive OF any state shall be conclusive
evidence that the requisite number OF
votes has been given for each eecto-
named by him MS such. Here add all
other limitations in the preceding ques-
tlons which may be thought proper,
stating what the two houses shall not de-
eide.
And he II FURTHER enatted, That when
soever the vote of one or more of the
electors of any State shall for any cause
whatever be sdjudged Invalid, it shall be
lawful for the Senators and Representa-
tlves of the sad State, either in the pres
ence OF the two houses, or separately and
withdrawn from them, to decide by their
own votes to which o! the persons voted
for by ANY of the electors of their State
[ur t. what personl the Invalid vote or
votes shall De given; for which purpose
they shalt be allowed the term of one
hourl and no longer, during which no
other certificate shall be opened or pro-
Ceefet on.

ANHIsTORICAL FRAGMENT.
How Thomas Jefferson Woulf Have
Settled the Electoral Dispute.

New York World.
We are indebted to Miss Sarah Mich
olss Randolph, OF Virginia, dsug htel
OF the late Thomas Jefferson Randolph,
VINO was Jetferson's Oldest grandson and
hi. executor, aud who published the first
edition Of Jeferson's c)rrespondence
for n most interesting memorandum
prepared by her illustrious ancestor, the
founder of American democracy, OF prac-
tcsl suggestions toward n bill to regulate
the decision of disputes over the results
Of presidential election. Miss Ran.
dolph is q granddaughter also OF Wilson
Cary Nicholas, who WAS senator from
Virginia in 1900 and Is the pOssessor OF
his papers, among which the menoran-
DUN she sends us was found some two
months ago. Senator Nicholas, rs Wi!

Congress, led the discuss ion III the Sen

the bitter contest which followed at the

MISS RANDonPH'S LETTER.
WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS,
August IL, 1877.
To the Editor OF the World.
SIR: viii YOU allow me " make
public through the columns Of the World
the contents OF most interesting paper
in my possession, OF which the enclosed
is possession, OF which the enclosed is
n photograph copy. 1t is as you wall
see, unsigned and undated but the hand
writing is too Enthusiastically Mr.. Jetfer-
sons for its Authenticity to be Tor an
instant doubted. The original was dis
covered last April among some papers
of Governor Wilson Cary NicnoIa4 of
Virginia, who was Mr.. .Jeterson's in.
innate friend and his mouth piece IN
Congress. It's interest would have been
doubled had it come TO light two mouths
sooner, when it might have sounded amid
the din of angry faction. us voice from
the dead
1t is little strange that, while the
nation was convulsed and its leading men
confounded by the danger which Threat
ened, there should have been slumberlng
in the archieves OF q private family
paper whose prophetic words and wise
counseIs would have commanded the re-
spect, even though not the consent, OF
the bitterest of partissus.
Happily it is not now too late to place
it on record rs proof of the tar-seeing
craftsmanship of Its author, which pre-
pared emedy for an evil, three-qusr-
tiers of century before its occurrence,
which our self-adulating generation Is
content to leave as fraud, whose shame
its highest statecralt conId acknowledge,
but not svcrt. 1t is probable this paper
was prepared before the Burr.ccntro-
versy, and after the election of the elder
Adams, when, | think there was some
trouble about the ineIlgibiity of Il Penn.

JANUARY.

The god Janus, after whom the month of jan
nary named, was represented by the Romans as
q with two faces, one looking backward and
the other forward. This implied that he stood be-
tween the old and the new year, with regard to
both. II was the custom of ancient Rome TO pro-
claim the first of the month, and to post notice of
its occurrence in some public place, so that the
people might be appraised of the religious festivals
in which they were expected to take part. This
first of the month came to be styled the Kdtcnd0,
or kalends, from the Greek verb Kaleo, proclaim
and the placard announcing 1t was called Fast
CdlendaIes. Hence book of accounts referring to
days subsequently called CdiendGriunl; whence
the name Calendar. now in general use. The division
of the year into twelve months has obviously been
determined by the moons revolutions. The lunar
month is strictly % days, IL hours, "A minutes and
3 seconds. There twelve such periods, and
rather lyss than IL days over in the year. Several
attempts had been made by civilized nations to di-
vide the year in accordance with these revolutions,
but to very little effect till Julius Cesar reformed
the Calendar and decreed that the year should con-
sist of 365 days, followed by of 500. The gen.
eral idea of Cesar was that the months should con-
sist of 81 and 80 days alternately, and this was ac
compshed in the bissexte or leap year. consisting.
as it did, of twelve times thirty and SIX over.

A Practical Joke.

A sense of the ludicrous is very en-
joyable thing, but it may be too highly
developed occasionally. This seems to
be the case with an English farmer who
has recently appeared before the courts.
He was sitting in the parlor of an inn,
one evening, reading the news, when his
eye CHANGED to fall on the sleeping form
of man with long beard. He went
to the fire, and, lighting piece of paper,
deliberately applied it to the sleeping
mans beard. There was q bright, rush
ing flame for a second or two; the man
spr-ng to his feet in agony; the joke
was complete, and the farmer roared in
ecstasy. The unfortunate sufferer, who
happened to be the village tailor, knew
that the farmer was man OF substantial
means, and sued him for damages. Dur
ing the entire trial the farmer fostered
his sense of humor, and laughed up
roariously when it was stated that the
plaintiffs beard was originally eighteen
inches long. He did not laugh 80 heart

Then the Grand Duke stretched out his hand,
shook the hand OF Osman Pasha heartily and
said, 81 compliment you on your defense Of
Plevna. II is one of the most splendid mill

rose painfully TO his feet in spite Of his wound,
and said something which I could not hear.
He then reseated himself. The Russian
officers all cried "Bravo! Bravo |" repeat.
eddy, and all saluted respectfully. There
was not one among them who did not gaze on
the hero of Plevna with the gravest admiration
and sympathy. Prince Charles, of Roumania,

Turkeys first pacific effort may be regarded a

hold out any hope Of successful mediation Of
such basis.
