These collectors are now in New Orleans, for the

renstated the old State Librarian removed By
Nichols, it is believed by the Louisiana republi-

of the Statu duo will require interpostion by the
national authority in the latter case as we'll as 10
that OF the librarian. The moneys are required to

LegisIative Notes.


The committee on State Prison, of which SEN
ator Thompson of York is charm In, will make
an official visit to the Prison. on Wednesday,
leaving on the noon train, and returning, proba-
bly, on Friday. They will make an examination
of the Prison and It's management, and report to

The Railroad committee have very nearly
c.eared up all matters before them.
In commencing Senator Wheelwright's propo-
sitiou in the Senate, concerning Mr.. Blair tenn
perance BILL the Bndgton News says:
Those who are clamorous for independent
political party to further the of prohibition,
urge that through the old parties men cannot be
sent to Congress who will dare to make any move
ment against the liquor traffic in Congress. The
fallacy of this position was shown q short time
since when Senator Morrill, of this State, in bis
place in the Senate, dared to characterize the Ii
quor traffic ss as "the giant crime Of crimes, and
now if at the instance of a Maine Legislature.
our Congressional delegation shall be induced to
give Mr.. Blsir's bill solid support, additiona ev-
Idence will be afforded that substantial progress
in the direction of national prohibition can be
made through the fundamentally of the old par

Recanvassing the Electoral Vote.


New YORK. January 20. A Tallahassee des-
patch to the World says Gov. Drew has approved
the act OF the Legislature requiring the Board of
canvsssers to make canvass of the electoral vote.
The board met yesterday. Attorney General Ran.
ney, having been of the counsel for the democratic
electors, declined to act, and Mr. Corley, commits
sioner of lands and immigration, was designat
in his place. The canvass was then gone into,
and all returns found to be regular were counted,
and footed up "a, 434 for Tilden electors and "A,
240 for the Hayes electors.
In the quo warranto before Judge White, the
matter reached an issue Friday. The respondents
pleaded first that the Hayes electors received a
majority Of the votes cast, and secondly that the
canvassing board so legally counted and declared
and adjourned without day, and their existence
ceased.
Compliments demurred to the second plea, and
the demurrer was sustained by the court. A Jury
TO try the issue was waived and the case was sub
mltted to the court on the question of the fact
raised by the first plea. The matter will probably
be determined Saturday on examination of returns
on file in the Secretary Of States office.
