The Electoral Commission.

WASHINGTON, April 13-Mrs. G. A. Fas-
sett's elaborate painting OF "The Electoral
Commission" Is now so we'll advanced that a
pretty fair Judgment can be formed as to the
design and scope OF the picture, as well as it's
probable merit DIS a work Of art. How well
Mrs. Fassett has performed her task can only
be told when the picture is finally completed,
but Judging from what is already done, the
result can hardly fail to be alike creditable to
the artist and gratifying to her friends. The
size OF the picture is about 80 inches wide by
60 In height, and it will contain when finished
nearly 200 figures or heads.
Every one is to be carefully finished like
ness painted from life, and with q very few
exceptions, from sittings given expressly for
picture finished in time to take 1t to Paris
this summer, and place it on view In that

The EIecfnral Count.

WASHINGTON, April 1a-The bill prescribing
the method of counting the electoral votes
and deciding questions arising thereon,
agreed upon by the Senate committee on the
electoral count, embodies substantially the
proposition submitted to the corresponding
House committee by the Hon. Eppa Hunton,
of Virginia.
The principal points are that each State
shall provide for the judicial determination of
any controversy concerning the appointment
of electors, and every such determination
made by the highest State court shall be con-
elusive evidence as to the lawful title OF the
electors SO declared to have been appointed.
That where conflicting decisions from differ
ent tribunal in the same State come before
the convention of the houses of Congress, the
votes of those electors only shall be counted,
whose title as electors the two houses acting
separately, shall concurrently decide to be
supported by the Judgment of lawful tribu-
nails of that State. The returns Of the cleo
tors OF the several States are to be Transmitted
to the President of the Senate by the second
Wednesday next after the meeting of the
electors, instead OF the first Wednesday in
January, as now. provided by law.

the general features of the bill, and taking 1t
as a whole. he felt warranted in recommend
ing the House to support it.
Mr.. Cbittenden, Of New York, thought there
could be o reduction in this department as well
MS In that of the army and navy, and he be-
leved that with care 1t could be placed on a
paying basis. He took the ground that the
Postof1ice Department could be, and must be
made to pay it's expenses.
Mr.. Dunnell Of Minnesota, doubted whether
the expenses of tho department could be re-
duced below what 1t was at present Gen.
uemen had compared the expense of the ser
vice now, with that in 1870 That was not a
fair comparison. Since 1860 an empire has
grown up in the West. The West has been
growing Ii Brooklyn has not.
Mr.. Townsend, Of New York-She has, and
her expenses have grown in a corresponding
degree. His colleague Mr.. Chittenden) want
ed to make the service self-sustainng, as in
England. He may do that when he reduces
the great American empire to the area of
England. and not before. There is not SER
vice where the people can afford the expense
as well as in this.
Pending further discussion the committee
rose.
Mr. Singleton, of Mississippi, introduced a
bill to reduce the expense of public printing
and binding Referred.
The House then, at 8 80 p. M. adjourned

The Fifteen RaIi Pool TOurna ment.

New YORK, April 13.-The grand national
fifteen-ball pool tournament was continued
to-day and this evening. The audience was
large, and during the evening session in
creased until the rooms were crowded to re-
P,ietion. During the afternoon session Clarke
played Sexton. Joe Dion defeated Wilson by
score Of II to 7; Cyrile Dion beat Sexton by
a score of II to 8. There were no special fea-
lures OF interest about the matches, and
scarcely any betting on either event.
was between Samuel Knight and Geo. Frey.
The latter did not seem In good condition
The sympathy Of the audience was with
Frey, owing to his youth, and some espe-
cially clever shots made by him were greeted
with hearty applause. The greater experience
OF Knight and his steader nerve, however,
secured him the advantage, and the match
closed in his favor by a score OF eleven to five
games.

Financial lLegislaiiun-Recent Action q
the Sonata Caln mil tee

WASHINGTON, April 13.-1t has transpired
that the finance committee of the Senate has
recently voted on four important PROPOSE
tions, as follows:
First With only two dissenting votes, that
after the first OF July legal tenders to be re-
ceivable for customs.
Second That legal tenders shall be receiva-
bic ut par for Der cent bonds.
Third That the present outstanding legal
tenders shall be indestructible; and
Fourth Repeating the law which author
izes the retirement OF legal tenders In the pro-
portion of 80 per cent Of the national bank
notes issued.
The two last propositions have the Same ef
Iect, but the repeal was unnecess ary. Mutilated
leg u tenders W i'll be replaced by new ISSUE
bill embracing these features will be- voted
on In the committee on Tuesday. and there is
tion.

McGarrahan's Claim,

WASHINGTON, April 13.-The Senate Com
mittee on Public Lands, Investigating the
claim Of VIM. McGarrahan to the property in
California on which the New Idria quicksilver
mine is located, under a memorial to the SEN
ate asking that patent be issued to him for
the land in question, resumed work this morn
ting. The counsel present were ex-Senators
Morgan and Carpenter, ex,Rep1r,s1sentativess
Col. Robt. Ingersoll and Mr.. G. H. Shaw, for
the memorialist. and ex-Attorney General
Black, Judge David Wilson, of Iowa, and
Messrs. Curtis, Earl and Burdette of this
Mr.. Sturgis and Mr.. Hearth. of the General
Land Office, were called by the defense in
reference to the time Of the receipt at the
Land Office of the letter of Attorney General
Bates. directing the commissioner to forbid
the issuance Of the patent. The books OF
record were examined by the witnesses and
they testified that the letter was received on
March 13, 1863. An order of the Secretary was
written, directing the commissioner to sus-
pend the patent, on March IA, and copy of
the original letter was filed in the General
Land Office on March 26
lhe object OF this testimony was to bring
out the record in connection with the state
ment OF the memorialist's counsel that the
Attorney Generals letter was not received
until after the patent to McGarrahan had
been issued, on the fourteenth Of March,
1863.
Mr.. Armstrong. chief of the Private Land
claims DIVISION, was recalled by the de-
fense to show that the two last sheets of the
unsigned patent to McGarrahan were ruled
by the divider similarly to the preceding
sheets. He testified that such punctures were
apparent on the two last sheets. The witness
thought the texture of the parchment on the
last sheets was different from the former one
Mr.. Burdett, Of counsel tor the New Idria
Company, asked:
Now, il this parchment was from the skin
Of the lamb2
The witness said he supposed that 1t was.
"Do you know any law Of nature that re-
quires the skin of lambs to be of the same
thickness and firmness?" LLaughter.l
Mr. Hopper, Gus custodian Of the Attorney
Generals office, was next called by the de-
fense in reference to the date OF sending and
receiving the reply to Attorney General
Bates letter.
During the examination there was some ex-
element created by Judge Wilson intimating
that Mr.. Shaw had called upon Mr. Hopper

punishment fell on the criminal, who most
richly deserved it, and his death in prison
will operate as an impressive warming.
THE TIMES
says, instead Of dying In fellon's cell.
Tweed ended his days surrounded BY every
comfort that could be introduced into q
sponsible for his career. Tweedism will long
survive Tweed, and the blindness, ignorance
and cowardiee that gave him his lease OF
power are even now contributing to the eleva-
ton OF men as ignoble in character and as
base in their method as was the man who
died yesterday.
says he possessed SO many exoellencies both
OF heart and mind, the magnetism by which
he grappled men to him in bonds Of friend
ship was so Irresistible, his kindness was so
impulsive and unaffected. his sympathy with
distress was 80 genuine and spontaneous, all
his better instincts battled SO bravely against
the tide that bore him tn the maelstrom In
which he was engulfed, that to hold only In
view his estimable qualities and shut out the
d lrkness OF his record, Is now the natural in
knew Tweed ere the catastrophe OF his life had
come upon him.
We hold that Tweed's crimes were due to
the same general causes which have operated
to produce the wrecks OF the regulations OF
bankers, merchants, insurance officers, cabi-
net ministers, savings bank managers, Chris
tian statesmen, etc, that strew the path OF
our history since Grant received the sword of
Lee ut Appomattox and peace introduced the
aftermath OF war.
THE WORLD
says this is Obstruction necessary to be kept
In mind; an unscrupuous man may be not
altogether odious IL the ends for which he
CHOOSES his means without scrnple are worth
aiming at. But IL ne has no aims except
purple and fine linen and champagne, and
violates all the duties OF life in order to put
himself above its decencies. 1t Is impossible
to make anything out of him except vulgar
and commonplace criminal. That was the
case with Tweed.
Tweed's power was well nigh boundless,
his crimes were on the same scale OF grandeur
and his punishment though only the smallest
part Of it was inflicted by the minister of
law was most complete and exemplary, yet
others against whom justice has not raised
her hand, are worse men than he Is or was,
and greater and not less guilty criminals sit
to-day in high places Of power In our country
and fancy that for them the evil day will
never come.

No Objection to a Full DlscussiOn Of the
Treaty by the Cangress

ST, PETERSBURG, April 13.-The Agence
Russo says: The Russian government, ty
discussing ,h In its an answer to Lord salisbury
the treaty, has practically established the
discussion of the whole treaty, and thus
shown how small a foundation the British
objections had.
II the Congress meets there will be no OBJ
lection to a full discussion, but submission OF
the treaty implies an act which no independ-
ent power, England least of all, would admit.

THE DEPARTED boss.
Unabated Excitement In the City-Fu.
neral Preparations.

New YORK, April 13-The excitement in
the City Hall over the death Of VIM. M. Tweed
remains unabated, and some OF the older en-
ployees, who served under the Boss, are wear
Ing mourning. It is not expected that any
official action will be taken in the matter.
Charles Denton, the bOudsman Of Tweed
had o short private interview with Mayor
Ely this afternoon. The mayor says that he
will take no personal action regarding
Tweed's death. Mr.. Denton states that petit
tions for Tweed's release had been in circula-
tion for week past in this and other cities Of
the State, and it was intended that the petit
tions should be sent to the Governor, at AL
bany, next week.
The funeral, it is ascertained, will take
place on Tuesday next, arrangements are
quietly progressing: The body still lies at
his daughters residence encased in ice, and
will SO remain till the day Of the funeral.
The services will be as simple as possible
the relatives desiring to avoid all display.
The remains will be placed in n plain black
cloth casket OF great richness, but without
gaudiness of any kind. The undertaken ex-
perienced great difficulty in securing IL coffin,
and it was found necessary, owing to the slze
OF the deceased, to have one made to order.
A dispatch was received to-day from the
widow and sons Of Tweed, who are snjourn-
ing in Europe. It is expected they will start
rs soon MS possible for New York.
Large crowds hang around the house where
the remains lay, though but few, and those
only the most immediate friends Of the fami-
ly, are admitted. Mr.. Denton wants to have
the body enbamed, but it has not been de-
cided as yet whether this will be DONE The
remains will be placed in the family lot in
Greenwood Cemetery, q handsome plot, occu-
pying an entire circle in q conspicuous part of
the grounds.
Tweed left some papers in charge Of his
former secretary, Foster Dewrie, but it is
understood that they are of no import ,nce
with regard to will, or the disposition OF
any personal property. Nothing has been
made public. 1t is said that he left no will,
as he had said that he had nothing to leave,
nor any property of any kind to dispose OF.
Press Comments.
THE HERALD
says Tweed has indeed suffered more than
his equally guilty associates, but without his
bOldness and skill the gigantic ring robberies
would not have been committed. The heaviest
