New YORK, Feb. 10.
The Trlbune's Washington special
says: The Democrats delayed the
Florida decision to the latest hour
possible, in order tn get from Illinois,
in time to present to the JOINT Conven.
ton some court records upon which to
base the ineligibility of Elector Chat
fee, of Illinois, on the ground that he
was a United States Commissioners on
election dav and when the Electoral
Cnlle.e met. The implication of the
Florida decision as to the effect OF the
Governors certificate is, that 1t Is not
valid unless made in accordance with
legally constituted authority of a State
for the canvassing Of its returns. The
main Ontes Of the day waS upon the
form of expression in the report Of the
Commission, declaring it not cOIppe-
tent to contradict by outside testimony
the certificate of the Governor as
founded upon and agreeing with the
testimony Of the Returning Bard.
The applica' ion OF this to Oregon con-
sists in the fact that the returns are 10y
the law of the State canvassed by the
Secretary of State. and in the presence
of the Governor, who has no voice in
the matter. The Republicans claim
that Growers certificates TO Cronin is
neither founded upon nor in accord
ance with the decision Of the lawfully
constituted ~canvassing authority Of
that State.

THE NEVADA INSANE.


sioners In charge of the INDECENT in.
sane Of this State, handed in to the
Senate on Tuesday, gives some very
interesting facts in relation to the poor
unfortunates now dwelling in a world
of mental darkness at the Woodbridge
Asylum. The report gives the total
cost of maintaining the Nevada patients
at $s2, 1852 IS, for the two years last
past, under the contract made by the
State with Doctors Langdon and Clarke
to care for them at 81 per week each.
At first glance this sum ap pears as a
heavy tax upon the people, and a hasty
consideration of the matter would
argue in favor of the proposition to
build an asylum at some point in u
own State and assume the a of
these patients ourselves; but, on
maturer deliberation, it will be very
readily seen that this course would
only serve to greatly increase, instead
of diminishing, this tax. Throwing
the cost of construction of a proper
building out of tie question, the ex.
pense of medical attendance, food,
clothing, and other accessories for the
patients, would be nearly, if not quite,
one third greater in Nevada than at
Woodbridge. Another point is also
deserving of mention, and this is the
mild and comparatively even climate
of California, and the cheerful II
roundings of the present home Of
these unfortunate wards, as compared
to the severe climatic changes here
and the cherries location that would
probably lie from necessity selected in
Nevada. But we have no desire to
enter into the details of this question
at present, and therefore deter further
discussion Of the matter until another
time. Among other figures OF the re-
port, we find that Out ofthe total mum
Der Of patients thus far sent to the
asylum, Storey county has furnished
%; Washoe, 20; Ormsby, 10; Hum
boldt, 10; Lyon, Q; Eureka, Z; Lander,
g.; White Pine. 5; Lincoln, 5; Elko, A:
Douglas, 2; Nye, !; and Esmeralda, L;
while Churchill county, the least pop
ulated, il not the least demented, has
furnished none. The nativities are
pretty nearly all represented, there
being of American birth, 81; Ireland,
80: Germany, %; England, 9; France,
4; the remainder being apportioned be-
tween Italy, Wales, Denmark, and the
British possessions. The causes of in.
sanity are almost as numerous as the
patients themselves-religion, intem
perance. grief, disease, and disappoint-
ment in love, all figuring prominent
~, while stock speculation has only
found one victim. 1t may he of some
interest to that'portion Of our readers
who do all the counting. to know that

affections turned his brain upside
down, has fully recovered after three
years. brooding over the instability
of first love-" and is now again bat
thing against the tyrannical DEGREES of
King Cupid at his former home in
Storey county. The report gives other
curious facts, the relation of the whole
of which would require too much
space at this time. The number of
patients now receiving care is eighty.

point, especially, we appeal to the experience

indorse the Presidents policy. III any lesson
whatever is to be drawn from the vote, 1t
is only that on the whole, Maine RepuD-
licans generally think that was, perhaps, the
best thing TO do about it.
Some Democratic politicians who talk ana
think. and eat and drink, ana breathe n0IhlhS
but politics, the breath OF whose lie Is the
caucus and convention, will be disappointed.
They boped there were enough sulky and dis
satisfied Republicans who would stay away
from the polls, or vote the Democratic ticket,
to develop a formidable opposition to the Ad-
ministration. Nothing of the KIND has YET
been developed, or will be. Whatever there Is
OF dissatisfaction with the Administration among
Republicans grows out of an intense hostility to
the Democratic party, and nervous dread
that it may favor that party too much. Dem
ocracy gains no recruits from that cause, we
nav be sure. 1t is a sort OF discomfort that
burns itself out, but never leads to desertlon.
Perhaps too, there are few disappointed Re
publicans who have been hoping that the course
of the Administration in the settlement OF the
Southern question, and in the steps taken 10
reform the Civil Service, for which the Demo
Gratis pretended such great sollctude, would
win over a perceptible number OF Demo-
cratic voters. But the average Democrat Is
not so easily detached from his associations
or loosed from his preiudices. The elections
of this year do not relate directly to national
politics, and men less rooted i'll partisanshlp
than he, would hardly jump over to the OPP
position at once in merely local election, to
indicate their approval of an Administration
which its own party only grudgngly in
dorscd The politicians on either side who
looked, and are looking, for any important
change in the relations OF parties to be md
Gated by the results of these elections, must
be disappointed. This is the oh-est kind OF
an oll-year Most of the voting is from the
force Of habit, and all the staying at home is
from choice Let us make the most of the
calm. Congress meets shortly, and then, I'M
less all signs fail, there will be music by the
full band and the American people will have
a stomacb-full of politics for long time to
come
