Ing ofIacer announced that the two houses
not concurring otherwise, the electoral
votes Of Vermont would be counted, and
they were thereupon declared as five for
Hayes and Wheeler.
Then the certificate of Virginia was
read, and the votes OF that state were An
nounced a. eleven for Tilden and Hen
bricks.
The votes OF West Virginia were next
announced a. FIVE for Tilden and Hen
bricks.
Then came
TIN LAST STATE,
the state OF Wisconsin, with ten votes
for Hayes and Wheeler. The certificate
OF Wisconsin having been read Mr..
Synds presented objections, signed by
Senators Barnum. Mcdonald Kelly,
Cooper and johnson. and Representa-
tives LyRde, Burchard, Phillips, Tucker.
Springer, Rice. Vance. Young and
Morey, to counting the vote OF Daniel w.
Downs as one of the electors for the
state OF Wisconsin, because he held the
office of pension surgeon and examining
surgeon for the pension office prior
to November Z, 1876. the day of
the presidential election, and on
the 9Th day OF December, 1876, on
which day he assumed to cast his vote as
an elector; that said Office was an office
of profit and trust, and that said Downs
could not therefore be constitutionally
appointed an elector for the state of Wis
consin or vote as such under the consti-
tuition of the United States; that said
Downs was not therefore duly appointed
an elector for said state, and that his vote
cannot be constitutionally counted.
The senate at ll:25 am. retired to its
chamber so that the two houses might
separately consider and determine the
objections.

It ID the fashion for Americans who do not Ret

to American newspapers, abusing England and
the English In every phrase Of their vocabulary.
While this sort OF thing may bo ro'icf to the
ovesburdencd mind Of tho correspondent, 1t Is
hardly fair to tho readers who caro- for unbiased
reports and reliable Information. An instance
OF tho onc-staed stJle OF writing may be men
toned to illustrate the polnt. A correspondent
Of tho Cincinnati Enquirer scnds from Lopdona
word OF advice to American actors who may be
contemplating . European TIP. He proceeds
to enumerate tho ills which they will hnvo 10
endure, not the least among which, ho says, will
bc tho rudeness and insults OF members Of the
profession. He atlls that one of tho best Amer
tcan comedians {sse}, when IN London not many
years ago playing as Scion Shinak, was moss
grossly inaulted and abused By Ills eo,sfsrres,
simply because he rms IN American. A more
extraordinary statement could hardly be made.
