The Mexcans held an election for Presi-
dent on the 10th instant. 1t is believed that
the official returns will show no election by
the people and the election will be thrown
into Congress The candidates were Coma
les and Diaz, the latter being the present in
cumbent. There is n probability that our
neighboring republic, contrary to their usual
custom, will get along this time without rev.
olution. If they do they deserve to be con-
graduated.

PURE BONE DUsT.-Messrs. John Bullock &
Son, No. II Smiths Wharf, Baltimore, continue
to offer to the farmers of Hartford county bone
dust, dissolved pure raw bone, &c. This
firm was established in 1889, and has throughout
all this intervening period enjoyed a reputation
for business integrity and fair dealing not sur
passed by any other house. The bone dust they
manufacture is guaranteed by them to be per,
feetly pure, and their wel-established reputa-
+ ton pIcclude5 doubt on that point. 1t has
been used by many excellent farmers in Hartford
county, to whom reference is made in the adyer-
tisement in another column.

AcCIDENTs.-On Thursday of last week Mrs.
Cronin, wife of Patvick Cronin, who lives in
Bush River Neck, while walking across the yard,
stumbled and fell, breaking her right leg above
the knee. DIR. f. Hall Richardson, of Bel Air,
was sent for on Sunday and adjusted the fracture,
but the injury is serious that 1t is said to be
doubtful whether Mrs. Cronin can recover or
not.
On Tuesday as Thomas Bradenbaugh, of
Pleasantville, was driving down a hill near
llanway's Factory the holding back strap broke,
causing the horse to run away. The buggy, an
open one, was upset and Mr.. Bradenbangh was
thrown violently out. He was painfully bruis-
cd, but not seriously hurt.
"A boy about eleven years old, son of Mr..
Reynolds, who lives near Sandy Hook, while
riding horse to water, few days ago, was
thrown in the road. He was picked up uncon-
scious and severely bruised.

SUICIDE FROM LAUDANUM.-On Tuesday VIM
Shcaley, who'll with his family at Magnolia,
went up stairs, locked himself in n room, and
mum, for the purpose of destroying his life. His
condition was soon discovered, and physicians
sent for, but their efforts to save his life were
unavaling. Shealey was employed in an iron
foundry in Baltimore city. He was about 81
years of age, and leaves a wife and several chill
drcn. No reason can be assigned for the act.

put Kentucky in their column" There is

Gen. Garfield Condemned by a RepubIi-
can Judge.

No denial has ever been made of the charge
that General Garfield, while chairman of the
committee on appropriations of the House of
Representatives, received "fce" of $4,000
from DeGolycr & McClelland, of Chicago,
for which he was to advocate the granting of
paving contrhct to them.
He succeeded and his clients obtained their
contract. Gen. Garfclds friends claim that
his course was legitimate one that he had
a right to accept a fee under the circum-
stances. Justice Swayne, of the United
States Supreme Court, however, does not
agree with this conclusion. In an opinion
recently delivered in case before him, he
said:
"The agreement with General Garfield, a
member of Congress, TO pay him $4,000 as q
contingent fee for procuring contract which
was itself made to depend upon future ap-
preparation by Congress-which appropria-
ton could only come from committee of
which he was chairman-was q sale of Off
cial influence, which no veil can cover against
the plainest principles of public policy. No
counsellorat-law, while holding high office,
has right to put himself in position of
temptation, and under pretensc of making n
legal argument exert his official influence
upon public officers dependent upon his fr-
ture action. Certainly the courts of justice
will never lend themselves to enforce con-
tracts obtained by such influence"
Justice Swayne, it should be remembered,
is thorough Republican and an Ohio man.
His opinion will not be very pleasant read
ing to those Republicans who are trying to
overlook this feature of General Garfields
record by saying that his relation to DeGol-
yer was that of counsel to client, and that he
was justified in making his clients pay for
services rendered.

the enterprising town of Delta, York county,
Pa, near the Hartford line, is reported to be very
brisk. The slate business, especially, has re-
ceived fresh impetus, all the quarries being ac-

cult to fill orders Last Saturday five car loads,
containing 5000 square feet of slate, were

Low PRICEs.-The New York Sun says
we cannot expect this to be a year of extra
ordinary business profit. The indications
are that prices will be low in the autumn ;
that while the volume of the transactions
will be enormous, the percentage of gain will
be small. Contradictory reports regarding
the condition of the crops are circulated by
spectators, but q harvest equal to that of
last year may be expected, while the Euro.
pean yield is likely to show n decided gain
over that of 1878 and 1870. This means
prices for grain lower than any we have
known for a long period.

Chester A. Arthur, the Republican can
didato for Vice President, has formally ac-
ceptcd the nomination. He thinks that pub
lie officials should not be expected to cease
from active participation in political affairs.
Mr.. Arthur has been consistent in this decla-
ration. He took most active part in poll
tics while collector of the port of New York,
and prostitutcd his office so shamefully as to
cause President Hayes to order his removal.
A public official should not be required, of
course, to give up his duties as citizen, but
it is surely wrong to use his Office as a politi-
cal machine. .tfr ..

potato bugs, which were superseded by the
Colorado beetle, have rcappeared in some sec
tions of the county After devouring the leaves
of the potatoes in Mr.. Richard +. Garrettson's
patch, near Emmorton, they attacked his toma-
toes and would have destroyed the crop entirely
if they had not been driven of. Unlike the
Colorado beetle, they are easily frightened, and
if brushed off for day or two will disappear.

THE ELECTORAL SYSTEM.
History Of the Origin Of the System Of Choosing
the President by Electors.

History Of the Origin Of the System Of Choosing
the President by Electors.
From Msdison's report of the debates
on the adoption of the Federal Constitu-
ton, we gather the following interesting
facts Several plans for choosing the
President were submitted:
Mr., Randolph's plan was that the
" President be. chosen by Congress.
Mr.. James Wilson, of Pennsylvania,
contended from first to last that the
President should be chosen by the peo.
pie at large.
Roger Sherman, of Connecticut, favor.
ed the appointment of the President by
Congress, to hold his Office during the
pleasure Of that body, and making him
absolutely dependent on the same, as il
was the will Of that body which he was
10 execute.
Elbridge Gerry, of Massachusetts, liked
the plan of Mr.. Wilson, but feared it
would be unpopular.
1ne vote Delng taken on Mr.. Wilson's
plan, 1t was defeated eight States to two.
The question was then taken on the
plan to elect by Congress, for term of
seven years, which was agreed to-yeas,
eight States; nays, two States.
This action was afterwards reconsid-
cred, when Mr.. Gerry moved that the
national executive should be elected by
the Governors of the several States.
Mr.. Randolph strongly opposed Mr..
Gerry's plan. The confidence of the
people would not be secured by it. Mr..
Gerry's plan was defeated.
Alexander Hamilton, of New York,
made vigorous speech against the pop
ular features Of the plans proposed, and
advocated, among other things, the cleo
ton of one branch of Congress and the
President for life. He submitted a plan
for a constitution, the fourth article of
which provided shat the supreme exec.
utive authority of the United States
should rest in an executive to be elected
to serve during good behavior, the cleo
ton 10 be made by electors chosen by
the people in election districts"
