currently, shall give him. Second--He will
count at first only the votes from States as to
which there is no dispute, and will then pre-
sent the duplicate sets of returns from each
OF the four contested States to the
joint convention, with the announcement that
as to them he awaits some instruction from the

The Washington correspondent of the Chi
cago Tribune telegraphs the latest utterances
OF President Grant touching the Presidential
complications He defined his position in
these words: "When all the political lower
and responsibility vested in me by the SURFACES
OF the people shall have expired by consti-
tutional limitation, which will be on the 4th day
OF March, | shall be ready to willingly surren-
der this responsibility but until then I shall
execute the Office Of President, and
protect and defend the constitution. It
Is not my province to dstermine the
question OF an election, but
to execute the laws. Whoever is declared to
be my constitutional successor, to him will I
surrender the reins of Government" He took
Issue with those who have suggested that Gov.
11iden might be inaugurated whether he was
declared elected or not, and strongly intimated
that that could not be done in Washington,
where alone he thought an Inauguration legal.
He said there could not be two legal
Presidents !; that he should consider an
Inauguration at any other place than
Warrington void that any attempt to
exercise authority elsewhere, under such cir
cumstances, could not be recognized, and any
recognition of such assumed authority by any
officer OF the Government would be treason,
The President ended in substance ais follows :
1.-The Presidents authority, exercised in sc,
cordance with law, is as supreme in the Dis
trlct OF Columbia as if it were a garrisoned
fortress, and any demonstrations or warlike
concentration of men threatening the peace of
the city or endangering the security of the
public property or treasure Of the Government
could be summary dealt with, should the
public safety demand, by declaration of mar
tial law

Pennsylvania, who first took his seat in
1916. His service, however, has been

only seventeen years while Mr.. Ham
lin, of Maine, whose first entry upon
Senatorial life was in 1848, has seen
twenty-one years of work upon the floor
and four years additional in the chair as
Vice President. MIR. Anthony, of
Rhode Island, comes next, having en-
tered the Senate in 1859, and bad a con-
tinuous service of almost seventeen
years. Messrs. Lot NJ. Morrill,, now
Secretary of the Treasury; Sherman, of
Ohio, and Howe, of Wisconsin, entered
the Senate together in 1861.
