Herald (Dem.)
According 10 the Memphis Avalanche, par
ty lines are shattering rapidly in Mississippi.
1t is about time to shatter the lines of par
ty which can stimulate and connive at such
atrocious acts as the Chisholm murder and
then shield the guilty ones by a parody of
Justice.
The curious observation is put forth by a
devoted defender of the Administration that
if the opposing Republicans do not have a
care the President may 60 to work next year,
and by the aid OF a Democratic Senate, fill
the 10000 Federal offices with Hayes Repub-
licans. Yes, but if the Administration pur-
sues its present policy for year longer,
where it will find the 10000 Hayes Republ-
cans. ?-TTibune.
Even Mr.. Gladstone himself would seem
to be wavering. In an article in the March
number Of the Nineteenth Century entitled
"The Paths of Honor and Shame" he says,
"we ought to cooperate with anybody, and
with everybody, against any mutlation OF
Roumania, should the occasion unhappily
arise. Russia ought not to stoop to this petty
spoiation Tor abstraction, if you wll,) from
humble but brave ally. II she does, / fear
tha at. mischief may come of it hereafter"
Mr.. Gladstone hopes, "in the interest of his
country" that in the approaching Congress
Eve may have and may use an opportunity
to acquire the good will of somebody; by
somebody mean some nation, and not mere
ly some government"
Gen. Ewing, being larger man than
Springer, and less easily suppressed, has
headed off the latter's scheme for unlimited
silver, with an equally comprehensive one for
unlimited paper. Springer may get away
from the person who is sitting on him pres
emily, and shoot his bill in also. Neith-
er agitator should have any objection to the
plan of the other. Both men want all the
money they can get, and there seems no rea-
son why both should not hail with delight a
third bill for unlimited copper or pewter or
even buttons. Possibly General Butler will
seize the opportunity, and put in operation
his American scheme OF finance, which is
grounded on leather dollar OF the least pos
sible value. T. tribune.

Reasons Why All Should Use the

1t makes strong appeals to the common sense of

furnishes exercise which may and should be in
troduced into every house; which may be practiced
at all seasons in all kinds of weather, by persons of
both sexes, all ages, and degrees OF strength or
weakness, alone or in company No one can say too
much in praise of it, and no one can afford to do
and consider it invaluable and Indispensable 1t is
the eafest, simplest, cheapest and most efficient
medicine ever discovered. No claim is set up for 1t
which is unscientific or impracticable.
GeneraL-It IS the best of rest. 1t is perfectly
safe. No harm ever came from its use 1t strains
no portion OF the system 1t directs the vital forces
to the affected parts BY its use the health is easily
maintained. The purchase Of keacUonary LITTER
is the best kind of economy. The convenience of
having one in the house is very great.
Mind and Brain. 1t invig0rates and
strengthens the brain, and renders it more active
and efficient in all its operations.
Steep.-It is the simplest and safest narcotic. 1t
is the most natural and probably the best means
inducing sound and refreshing sleep.
Nerves.-It is wonderful tonic to the whole
nervoas system. 1t is most efficaeious remedy in
paralysis, If taken in time.
Lungs. Thr0at and Vojce-It gives special
expansion and greater mobility to the ehest; en-

As preventive and cure of lung diseases it has

Presidential Elections.
The Mode of Choosing the Presi dent OF
'he Cniicd States.-Fhe HIaish PLAN,

In February of last year Mr.. Maish of Penn
sylvania introduced into the House of Represen.
tatlves aresoluton for Constitutional Amend
ment, which embodied highly iugeai1us and
yet simple plan for the election of the Presi.
dent and Vics President By drec. vote of the
people as follows: The qualified citizaus
of each state are to cas- their votes for Presi-
dent and Vice President by ballot and certified
returns of these votes under seal, are to ba
made within ten days to the Secretary
OF the State who is to open them in the presence
of the Chief Executive aud the Chief Justice of
the State, and these officers shall assign TO each
candidate voted for, bis proportionase part of the
electoral votes to which the state is entitled on
the principle by which representatives in Con-
gress are assigned to the several states, viz, by
dividing the whole number OF votes returned
by the number of electoral votes to which the
state is entitled, assigning to each candidate
one electoral vote for the number of popular
votes cast for him corresponding to the quo
tient, and an additional electoral vote for every
repetition of the same number and then if ne,-
essary one for each highest fractional part of the
same for any of the candidates till the whole
number of the electoral votes to which the
state Is entitled is distributed; and the candi-
date thus receiving the majority of votes in the
United States shall be the President.
This plan, it will be seen, while ii dispenses
with the electoral college, retains ia the hands
of the states the whole machinery OF electoral
voting for the President and leaves the dissribu-
tion of the votes among the candidates TO three
OF the superior officers and according to fa-
mlliar and well-deinsd principle. The evils of
the general ticket system too, are avoided and
local maJorities count towards the general rs-
suit. rne plan, therefore, cannot be objected
to as abridglug the rights and privileges Of the
states or as Intentionally unjust in principle.
But IS 1t quite certain that the principle of dis
tributon Is the best adapted to attain Justice in
the case? May it not exclude minofisisJ, scarce
ly less fatal than the local msjorities exclQded
By the general ticket-system? Suppose that
100000 votes are cast for two presldentisI can
dldates in state entitled to four electoral
votes, the electoral quotient or ratio Of course
ls 70 600. If now, we suppose $1,000 votes cast
for QUE of the cand dates and SO 600 for shs
other, the latter with not many more than
bali tue number of popular votes which the
other has Will have the same number Of electc-
raj votes; since taking fifty thousand (ratio for
two electoral votes) from the first sum leaves
12,000 while 25,00O (the ratio for Que electoral
vote) taken from the latter leaves 1900 which,
being the larger fraction would receive the
fourth electoral vote And cases like this it is OBJ
vious, would continually occur. The plan,
therefore, would seem to be no improvement on
the present plan of voting for electors by gen.
eneral ticket j. T. O.
