Ing subjects.
TL0ndon Times.


In one of the sweetest Of operas the
hearer is charmed with chorus whose
graceful and rhythmic movements re-
fleets the gentle and indolent swaying
of summer seas but in the midst of the
dreamy softness Of Weber's music OBJ
trude the recurrent notes which warn
US to remember the sleepless watchfuE-
ness Of the powers of the storm. It ia
not given to us to forget the harsh dis
sonance of pain. Yesterday we were all
reading OF the pomp and ceremony OF
Oriental magnifcence, and for u brief
hour the mind escaped from the
dismal realities Of our watery skies
to live amid the splendors OF
Delhi. The Viceroy seemed to
have made the tales OF Arabian fiction
true, and to have justified the largest
phrases OF our poets in describing the
riches OF the gorgeous East. Upon the
kings who came to testify their alle-
glance before the representative OF
gold were showered more profusely
than Milton had ever imagined, and
thought it must have been difficult to
Danish tie reeollections Of warfare in
the sight OF the Ridge OF Delhi, the
suggestion Of privation was for q time
forgotten. To-day the irrepressible
contrast is reasserted. Instead Of the
reckless profuS1On or lneXhau5tlble
wealth, we have to face the grim fact OF
imminent famine. Last week the capi-
tai of the moguls witnessed a magnifi-
cent display Of luxury and pride.
Princes and governors came to-
gether from every province, and
We'd with one another In
the extravaganza of their pomp. Moth
ing was too rich, nothing too costly, to
become the ceremonial they shared.
Whatever was most distinguished for
the glory Of its design or for the delica-
cy or extent of the labor spent upon it's
execution was brought and laid at the
feet of the Viceroy as appropriate offer
ings to the majesty he. represented.
Who could have supposed that, in this
highest hour Of imperial pride, the
mind Of the central figure OF the pa
geant was disturbed by thought, that
would come to mar his satisfaction, OF
thousands and hundreds OF thousands
nay, OF million Of persons besieging
the officials and sub-officials OF the In
dian government to give them little
work, that they might have handful
of rice lest they die?

"How does this decision in the Flor

mission in its future deliberations on
the cases Of other States sending du-
plicate returns?" was the next inquiry.
'Well," said Mr.. Morton, sit settles
one question: That the commission
cannot go behind the returns Of the
lawfully ly-constituted Canvassing or Re-
turning Boards of the States upon which
the Governor bases, or should base, his
certificate Of election to the electors" :"
How about the Oregon case? Are the
Republicans safe there?" Perfectly
safe, because the commission can in
quire whether Governor Grover obeyed
the law which requires him to base
his action on the returns OF the Secre-
tary Of State, otherwise the Returning
or Canvassing Board Of Oregon. The
laws Of that State require that certiti-
Gates shall be issued to the person hay
ing the highest number OF votes. The
canvass OF the votes, the aggregate num-
Der cast for each elector, will show
whether the law in this respect was
obeyed; and" he added, with one OF his
peculiar smiles, "the certificate Of the
Secretary of State as to the number OF
votes cast for each elector accompanies
the Hayes and Wheeler electors from
that State" It was suggested that
some Republicans felt shaky on that
point "There Is no need for apprehen-

yNDEPENDENT OPINION.
The Legal Emposs1bliity Of Counting
Louisiana for Hayes.
lPhiladelphia Times.l

A4uioS'J
We regard it as entirely unwarranted,
also, to assume that the decision OF the
Florida case. il favorable 10 Hayes, will
in any measure narrow the inquiry or
foreshadow the decision as TO the
Louisiana vote OF course the rejection
Of the vote OF Florida, or counting it
for Tilden, would dismiss Hayes from
the contest; but, assuming that it
shall be counted for Hayes, the Louis
lana case bristles with legal issues
which fairly present themselves to
the commission for determination.
Florida Is not entirely free from doubt.
even on the face OF the returns, Tor
their raggedness and irregularities de-
form the records Of nearly every coun-
try; but in Louisiana there is no dis
pute as to the face OF the returns, and
the majority Is so large that there must
be the most absolute mandate OF q just
ly administered law to warrant their
reversal. We do not see any way clear
for the electoral tribunal to count the
vote OF Louisiana for Tilden, but 1t
would seem to be a legal impossibility
TO count it for Hayes. Hayes has a
that Is rotten with both legal and
actual fraud, and Tilden has no re-
turn at all that can avail IN tals
proceeding. A certificate signed by Mr;
McEnery as Governor, and lacking, all
the formalities demanded by the law,
cannot be vitalzed into legal RETURN
McEnery was doubtless elected Gov
ernor Of Louisiana, but that question
has long since ceased to be a dispute

dent, the Senate, the House. and the
people Of Louisiana, have with more or

kellogg as Governor, and McEnery's
certificate to the Tilden returns is
simply the certificate of citizen OF the
State, ard without the semblanee OF

of Louisiana for Hayes involves

ON the motion to reject the action OF
ther Tribunal in the Florida case. 1t
will be carried by about 1Go to 80.
This will not impair the count OF the
vote of Florida for Hayes, as the Senate

Especial to New Orleans Democrat
WASHINGTON, Dec. 12.-To-night a
newspaper correspondent sought out
one Of the most grave and reserved
Democrats on the Tribunal and asked
him what he thought would be the de-
cision as to the admission Of evidence
in the Louisiana case. The statesman
said he had no views to impart on that
subject, but added, MY dear. boy,
think I can name seven men who will
figure in history as having played the
most ridiculous part in the most solemn
farce that ever was enacted

WASHINGTON, Feb. 12.-There is little
