THE ELECTORAL VOTE AND COLLEGE.

50 ,3s5; Brown. So.3ss; Terry. 1851;

Fox, sc, 25s. The first six named are
Democrats; the last six Republicans
Judge Tsrry has the smallest one OF spy
OF the twelve. Therefore. he is beaten.
snd five Democrats are elected and
one (Edgerton) Republican. This is
81 extraordinary circumstance. and one
lot contemplated by the makers of the
Electoral system. and is in itself an ex
cellent argument for the doing away Of
that system. Voting for electors zas
supposed to be an indirect. bat infalli
Bile. way Of voting for President. II
was not Supposed that dislike of the
electoral candidates would ever affect
the chances of q Presidential candidate.
II now seems that it may, and that 1t
will in future is highly probable. 1t
will not be surprising if at every cleo
ton hereafter more oe less electoral
candidates are defeated on successful
tickets Much confusion, dissppoint-
ment, soreness and strife may ensue in
consequence. and 10 cases Of close con-
test the will of the people may
b, defeated thereby. There are too
many questions contested with the
Electoral College. and there is entirely
too much machinery and intricacy
about it. The sooner it is abolished.
and direct resort made to the popular
vote, the better it will be for the people
and the country Ut large.

eipal street. Iu both parties were SEINE
