Nothing more Certainly forecasts the

hold on the Senate. Within few years

counting the Senators from Louisiana
and South Carolina, they will have, in-

elected by Democratic votes given ior
them in the belief-so far confirmed by
their action-that, although Republicans,
they could not be dragooned by the party
caucus inta a disregard of the plain re-
quirements of the Constitution. But the
public sentiment which brings Tilden In
to power will insure a vigorous support
to the thorough system of retrenchment

THE ELEcroRIL COUNT.

- p I'll
The New York H.roid says: There
aIe only TWO States Florida and Lo...si-
ana-that Will require prolonged eX-
animation, the Oregon case not involving
any dispute on questions of fact, and the
question of law lying within small com
pass. Tho Electoral Commission should
lie able to reach decision respecting the
Florida certificates within six or seven
lays, and the rules they adopt in the first
place referred to them will narrow the
ground Of subsequent Investigation. Such
legal points as apply TO all the States
alike will have been decided in connec-
ton with the Florida case, and in the
cases which follow the tribunal will con-
slider itself bound by its previous decis-
ions. Florida therefore, from the fact
that it comes first, will probably occupy
more af the time of the commission than
all the other disputed States together.

The Vote of Florida.

The electoral vote of Florida, is now
before the Electoral Commission. There
are three certificates. The proofs form
q powerful appeal from the intelligent
voters OF Florida to be permitted to gov
ern themselves through and under the
State Constitution, which had passed un-
der the review and was sanctioned by
Congress. 1t is well remembered by the
readers of the GAZETTE that General
Barlow, who was delegated to Florida by
the Republicans to manage their case be-
fore the Returning Board, when the vote
of the State was being counted; became
so fully convinced that Tilden and Hen
dricks had received majority and that
the vote could not be given to Hayes ex-
cept by fraud, that he refused to have
anything further to do with the case and
subsequently he published letter in
which he stated clearly the fact that the
returns showed that majority Of the
votes had been cast for Tilden. Since
General Barlow appeared in the man
danaus proceedings in the Circuit Court
at Tallahassee, the vote has been re-can-
vassed, by a new board, and by the di-
rection Of the Legislature ; and the re-
suit Of their work has been furnished,
proving conclusively that Gen. Barlow
was right, and that the State had given
the Tilden electors majority. In refer
ing to this vote the Washington Union
says:
Altogether independently, however, OF
such recanvass, Senator Jones has made
it matter of demonstration in the very
able and exhaustive presentation of the
case made by him in the Senate on Fri
day of last week. His speech deserves
TO be carefully read by every one who
wishes to understand the facts or the law
applicable to the Florida case the first
one referred to the consideration Of the
electoral commission nnder the provision
oi the new act.
Mr.. Jones states fully the law under
which the returns are CanVassed and the
powers and duties OF the Canvassing
board defined--both the original law O1
1871, and the amendments made by the
Legislature in 1872. Neither the origina

fer any judicial powers upon the board
This had been expressly determined by
the Supreme Court in 1871, as 10 the
original law, and that decision has beer
reatfirmed by the same court in its appli-
cation TO the law as it now stands by lis
recent opinion in the mdndomus case
against the State board. In the case OF
State cn rel, Bloxham VS.. Board of Can
vassers, 15 Fla. Reps, 49, the Supreme
Court says:
Their duties and functions are mainl.
ministerial but are quasi-iudicial so far a
Il is their duty to determine whether tn
papers received by them and purportin
70 be returns were in fact such, wer
genuine, intelligible and substantial
authenticated as required by law; in ott
ct words, whether they contained With
themselves evidence that they were al
thentc returs of the election"
This was in 1871: in 1876 the same coul
says of the further provision added
the Legislature in 1872 that the boar
shall not include in the count returl
which are $50 irregular, false, and frau
ulent that the board cannot ascerta
from them the true state of the vote"
