The President's Message to the Ex-
ira Session.

The President has commenced the
preparation of his message to the ex-
ira session Of Congress. 1t will be ex
tremely brief, simply calling attention
to the legislation which failed in the
late Congress, and the necessity Of pro-
viding means for the military and civil
establishments. Several members of
the Cabinet incline to some reference
to the points in dispute, but it has
been determined that it would BE- in
appropriate to anticipate the action Of
Congress, Notwithstanding the purpo-
ses of the majority are we'll known.

lie ADMITS HIS ERROR IN VOTING HAYES
INTO TILDEN's SEAT.
Frum tho Now York Sun.
Two years and half ago MIR. Justice
NJ Her came down from his place on the
bench of the United States Supreme
Court, and took this oath: al do sol.
emnly swear that | will impartially ex.
anime and consider all questions sub.
mitted to the commission of which |
am member, and true judgement
give thereon, agreeably to the Constitu.
ton and the laws, so help me God"
Evidence was brought before Mr.. Jus.
tice Miller showing that the lawful vote
of Louisiana belonged to Mr.. Tilden
and Mr.. Hendricks by a majority, on
the popular vote of the State, OF more
than eight thousand, that a conspiracy
had been formed at New Orleans to dc.
fraud the people of Louisiana of their
voice in the election of a president; and
that the so called Hayes electors had no
title to represent Louisiana in the elec.
tornl college save what they derived
from forged certificates, perlured afiida-
Wits, and shameless violations of the
law-that their claims rested upon a
fabric of fraud without parallel in the
experience of the Nation, On the eve.
ming of Friday, September l6, 1877. the
Electoral commission, by its UNANIMOUSLY
memorable vote of eight to seven, gave
the vote of Louisiana TO Rutherford Is.
Hayes. Mr.. Justice Miller voted with
the eight, not with the seven. With
all the evidence before him, with the
solemn language of his oath still fresh
upon his lips, he voted nine times in
succession to exclude the facts, the
right, the truth, from consideration, and
to give effect to the frauds of the con.
spirators. His vote put Hayes in the
office that belonged to Tilden. The one
excuse that could be offered for Mr..
Justice Miler's share in that great in.
iquty was that he voted under a mis-.
take, under the delusion that Hayes was
really entitled to the vote of louisiana.
Even the politicians who sat with him
in judgment, the unscrupulous parti
sans like Morton and lloar sought to
the end to keep up the pretense of act
ing under conviction. But on Friday
last, at Block Island, in speaking of
Mr.. Tilden in presence OF several gen
tlemen we'll known to the country, Mr..
Justice Miller said "Hc v1S electsd in
Louisiana; that is, he got ciyht or ten hous.
and more actual rotes there than Hayes"
The vote of Louisiana belonged to
Tlden; Tlden was legally elected
President of the United States in 1876;
Hayes has no right to be in the White
House the decision of the electoral
commission was fraudulent and false,
and in the face Of the facts--all this is
truth that has already passed into his.
tory. But, as far as we know, no one of
the eight who consummated the Fraud
had ever confessed this truth until
Judge Miller confessed it at Block
Island last Friday. II most extraor-
dinary and most humliating confess.

has been honored and trusted by the
people Of the United States as Mr. Jus.
tice Miller has been honored and trusted.

The Four Per Cent. Certificates.
FROM The New York Tlme..

From the New York Times.
All but about 100000 Of the four
per cent. certificates have found their
way back to Washington, been cancell.
ed and have disappeared forever. IL
will be remembered that IL was expect.
ed that these certificates would furnish
an Investment for q certain amount Of
the savings of the working people
using that phrase, for the lack of a
better, TO indicate those whose earnings
are comparatively small. The experi.
ment did not succeed. The only success
which il had was to enable few persons
to get four per cent, bcLds at nearly
par, and larger number TO get q slight
premium on the certificates obtained
from the government agents. The rad.
ical difficulty with the certificates as an
investment for small earnings was that
money placed in them was not sure,
under ordinary circumstances, TO be
readily got out again at need without
loss. For a time this difficulty was
removed by the demand for four per
cent. bonds, into which the certificates
could be converted. But the history of
the certificates shows that, for their
original purpose, they were 4 failure. IL
does not appear that the time has yet
come when the Government interest
bearing debt IL sufficiently stable in its
market value, and in its net return to
the holder, to make II a safe investment
for moderate savings.

MOTHER AND BABE FALL EIGHTY FEET IS'
TO PIT.
A rather remarkable accident occur.
red to a Mrs. Haley and her year. old
child at Allegheny ore bank, below
Blair Furnace and about three miles
from Altoona on Saturday night, Au.
gust l6. There had been picnic at q
place called Sandy Run. within easy
walking distance of Mrs. Hsley's resi-
dence, and the festivities were kept up
until after dark. On her way home
Mrs. Haley had to pass an old ore shaft.
The night being dark she walked near.
er TO il than she supposed. The rain of
the afternoon had softened the earth
about the mouth of the shaft, and as
she innocently trod upon it it gave
way beneath her weight and slid into
the pit, carrying Mrs. Haley along with
IL. Just then she realized her peril
and screamed. She fell about eighty
feet to the bottom. A party Of men
who were most fortunately following
not far behind her heard the shout,
and on arriving at the spot from ap.
pearances about the mouth Of the pit
correctly surmised that some one had
fallen in. Lights were procured and
ropes were brought into requisition.
descent was made, and Mrs. Haley was
found in q position which indicated
that in the fall she had maintained her
equilibrium, for she was erect, but was
sunk in mud and water to her arm
pits. Mrs. Haley in her terror had evi.
IDENTITY temporarily forgotten her in.
fant and IL had slipped from her EN-.
brace. for ii was found several feet away
from its mother houndering about the
bottom of the shaft in the mud. Both
mother and child were successfully rails.
ed to terra .frma and conveyed to their
home. When the little one was placed
on sold earth it began to vomit and
elected quantities of mud and dirty
water. Though the nature and the ex-
tent of their injuries has not been
learned 1t is presumed they are not Sc.
rious.
