WASHINGTON, March 1O.--Mr. Herbert, of
the subcommittee upon revising the cleo
toral law, has prepared very elaborate re-
port in opposition to Buckalew's plan, in
dorsed by the greater portion Of the COM
mittee. He reviews the history of the pro-
visions of the constitution relating to this
question, and alludes to the fact that in the
convention that framed the constitution q
proposition to
ELECT THE EXECUTIVE
by vote of the people was voted down by a
large majority, as tending too much to con-
solidation, and the present plan devised of
election by States, and that States as to this
matter
ARE SOVEREIGN,
and may appoint their electors either by a
popular election or any other manner they
may deem appropriate. Mr.. Herbert con-
tends that the plan proposed by the sub
committee would be radical change in the
mode of electing; tn It it would eliminate to
that extent States as
POLITICAL ENTITIES AND FACTORS
in our system, and would tend to nationalize
our government. He contends that in case
contest as to the election should arise, the
proposed plan would widen and extend the
field of contest, perhaps to every State in
the Union, the several contesting parties
attempting to gain or make up fractions of
votes in each State, and the govern
nnent would not be able to stand the strain
of such contests.

CINCINNATI, Q. March 1O.-Jerry Tullis, a
millionaire and a remarkable character, of
this city, died yesterday. He was son of
noted horse teacher, of this city, and had
accumulated his immense property, consis-
ting of real estate in Chicago, Cincinnati, St.
Louis, five farms in Ohio, Illinois, Missouri,
and Iowa, by the strictest parsimony and
close but honest business dealings. He was
VERY ECCENTRIC IN HIS HABITS,
wearing only clothing bought at second
hand and continuing it's use until it was in
rags, eating at cheap restaurants, living in q
wretched, dirty little room on an obscure
alley, or in miserable log hut on one of
his many valuable farms in this vicinity, and
rivaling in costume and personal degreda-
ton the most
D1sREPUrABLE TRAMP OF THE PERIOD.
He studied law years ago with Gen. Cary of
Greenback fame. So great was his parsi-
mony that during portion of his sickness,
which is supposed to have been the result of
lack of food and personal care, he refused
to consult physician on account of the e1-
pense. He was unmarried and had but few
relatives or associates. His property is yari-
ously estimated at from $2,OOO,OOO to $3,-
100000.

Lac0nf0,

The Republicans appear to be doing moth
ing in the way of campaign work. They
have held no public meetings, and but COM
paratively little interest seems to be mani
tested in Republican circles as to the result
of the approaching contest, and there is APP
parently widespread feeling of dissatisfac-
ton among many leading Republicans in
Belknap county. The same feeling doubt
less permeates every township within the
State boundary to greater or less extent.
They contend that tho President has proved
recreant to his official position, consequently
that his administration is failure. Hayes
is charged with having forsaken his own
party, that made him what he is, and goes
over to the enemy, SO far as the adoption
of hme-honored Democratic principles is
concerned, and as matter of course is not
deserving of hearty support by the Repubi-
can party at the polls. There is also con-
siderable opposition among prominent Re
publicans to the present gubernatorial in
cumbent, which is liable to cause the alb
sence of many Republicans from the voting
places.

place near Hoge Station, young man
named Andrew Butts being the victim. he
was travelling with companion named
George Stuttsman, both being from Mount
Carmel, Northumberland county, Pa. While
he and his companion were sleeping by a
camp fire,
THREE TRAMPs
whose names are unknown, came up and
asked permission to sleep by the fire. Yhis
being refused, the tramps went away and the
two young men went to sleep. About mid
night Butts was awakened to find his cloth
ing in flames and burning railroad tie laid
across his body. He tore the burning rags
from his body, but he was SO badly burned
before he could do SO that the
FLESH DROPPED FROM HIS BODY
in various places. He crawled to farm house
near by and had his wounds tied up, and was
then taken to the poor house in this city,
where he died this morning at o'clock. His
companion has not been seen since that
night, and the general superstition is that the
tramps made way with him.

Not that we are opposed to better accommo-
