The Presidential Inability
Question.

The question Of presidential Ina
bility" is discussed at length and in
separate papers in the North American
Review for November by Lyman Trum'
bull, Thomas n. Cooley, Benjamin F.
Butler and Theodore w. Dwight. The
conclusions, especially as 10 who are to
be the judges Of such disability, are so
much at variance as TO prove the ne
cessity Of an amendment defining as
clearly as possible this clause of the
constitution. Judge Trumbull places
the power to act in such case upon
open and notorious public opion. This
he considers to be sufficient TO warrant
the Vice President in assuming the
Office and serving as President. Judge
Cooley believes the power TO be lodged
in Congress. Mr.. Butler denies that
either Congress or the Supreme Court
can be Judges In the matter, but that
when the constitution imposes duty
on any officer to be done by him, he
must BE- The sole Judge when and how
to de- that duty. Prof. Dwight agrees
with Judge Cooley in designating Con-
gress as the proper authority to pass
uper the actual fact or disability. There
is alse another disagreement between
these writers. 1t is on the question as
to whether, when the disability passes
away, the recovered President resumes
his functions. Prof. Dwight strongly
argues that he does not but that the
Vice>President serves out the full term,
or until another election, no matter
whether the former President becomes
conyalescent or not. Under this view
if during President Garfield's sickness,
Vice-President Arthur had been called
upen or had taken of hisi own motion
the presidential seat, US be was urged
TO do by the New York Sun and some
other papers, he would have still kept
the Office, even in the event OF President
Garfield being able to subsequently,
resume its dut,es.-BdH. San.

THE EXPENDITURES INCURRED IN
THE PRESIDENTS ILLNESS AND BU'
RIAL.-AccOrding 10 an estimate made
by the indianapolis Sentinel" the
Illness aud burial of tie late President
involved an expenditure of about S247,
coo. Ofthat sum s247,OO were spent
ut Cleveland and 100000 during the
patients struggle for life. Mr.. Gar.
fields private secretary, Mr.. Brown,
kept the ron OF things until the fatal
termination. He says that the Doctors
bills probably prove to be $4,000, and
that the average daily expenses APP
proximafed $3.50. The sick bed ex-
penses, as Mr.. Brown thinks, will be
borne By Congress; and there seems TO
be settled conclusion that the s247,-
600 iDenrred at Cleve land are 10 come
cut Of the State treasury and tie
Cleveland people. The decorations in
Cleveland cost slO3 900, the accOpmO-
datisns 100000, the arches $4,000,
the catafalque So 600, the music $4,000,
and so OD. The transportation of the
remains from ElberOn 10 OniO wac the
work Of the Pennsylvania Company,
which, it Is understood, will make no
charge. Accom- Dan, ing the estimate
of the sick bed and funeral expenses is
a statement That Mrs. Garfield is likely
to receive a pension Of ut least $4,000
year, Which will make her income about
$4,000.

The speculation In C0nfeder'
ate Bonds.

The active speculative purchases OF
Confederate bonds en- alleged English
account have gwen rise to all sorts OF
hypotheses to account fora movement
40 extraordinary. 1t has been said,
among ether things, that the Bank OF
ENGLAND still holds on deposit large
sum in gold placed there to the credit oil
the Confederate government. The
title to this, it is alleged, is not in the
United States government, but IN The
holders of Confederate bonds. The
London papers, IN referring to these
speculative purchases, concur in saying
that there is not dollar in money
credited 10 the former Confederate
Government 10 the Bank of England
This ought to put that story at rest.
Rut even if there were either money on
depssiL in the English banks or property
of the late Confederate government IN
other English hands. the interesting
account OF the decisions Of the English
courts recognizing the right OF the
United States TO all the assets belong
ing to the Confederate government alter
the fall of the confederacy settles con-
clussively the question, SO Tar as The
holders of Confederate bonds are con-
cerued. And this disposes of the theory
preached by the London World that the
United States are liable to the bond
holders for taking possession of the
cotton on which the Confederate loan
was based, the intention being that the
cotton loan was business transaction,
and had nothing to do with politics.
But granting that eminent English
LAWYERS, and among them Lord Hather'
ley and Mr.. Benjamin, have expressed
the opinion that on the hypothesis OF a
simple business transaction the holders
of Confederate cotton bends had q lien
on the cotton for which they contracted
aud that il seizing it the United States
made itself liable tC the bondhOlders,
how and IN what manner do the latter
expect 10 make good their claim in the
face of the fourth section OF the four
tenth amendment to the constitution,
the closing paragraph OF which reads
thus2
But neither the United Safes nsr
any State shall assume or pay any debt
or Obligation incurred in aid OF insurrec'
ton or rabelllon against the United
States, or any claim for the loss or
emancipation of any slave, bat all such
debts, obligations and claims shall be
VOID"
Ii will be observed from what we
have said and from the decision OF The
English courts that the title to all ex.
Confederate properly IN English hands,
if aby property there be, is IN the
United States government and, further,
that even II the Confederate bonds con-
stltuted lien on the cotton on which
the loan was based, the United States
government Is prohibited by the four.
Ieenth amendment To- the constitution
from recognizing any such obligation. -

The Result.

The result Of the election as given 10
our returns so Tor as received up 10 the
hour Of going 10 press shows that the
coalition ticket has carried this county
by = majority OF not less than three hun
dred and seventy. This result waste some
extent unexpected. The county was con-
sidered very clos but thes timete ofthe
vote at.Liberty and Columbia Furnaces
was based upon what was believed to be
the sentiments OF The voters. At these
precincts, almost the entire vote was
controlled by one or two lindlvldusls'
and was cast in accordance with the
sentiments oflhose in control.
From the State at large the news Is
meager, but dlscouraging. We have
dispatch from a reliable scarce in balti-
more, which reads as follows;
Cameron and Legislature elected.
New York, dem ecratic, Pennsylvania,
New Jersey ard Connecticut, republi-
can. Massachusetts,, $4,000.
About the same time a dispatch was
received from Washington, as follows,
Daniel, five TO ten thousand majority.
The legislature democratic.
These returns would seem to leave
the State in doubt, giving a little COM
fort 10 both parties.
The fight was desperate one. Ihe
Democrats Of Virginia fought the COM
blned Readjuster and Republicans par
ties, backed by the Administration ana
all the money they wanted.
They made a gallant Gsht and have
nobly done their duty. If Daniel has
been defeated, the State will evidently
be counted with the Republicans. the
capitalion tax restriction will be remov-
ed and the Valley counties hereafter
will have no controlling influence in the
legislation Of the State, but will be at
the mercy Of the negro vote of Eastern
Virginia.

A new mode OF defacDg silver cmus
has come TO light. III is not frr gain,
but for advertising purposes. Qlack
doctors, patent medicine men, and the
whole of that mob are utilizing the
silver coinage Of The country TO bring 10
the attention. Of the public their wares
and alleged cures. Within the past
two mouths il large number Of silver
coins have been put in circulation TOR
such advertising purposes. One side Of
the coin is just as it comes out OF the
Mint. The other side has stamped up
on II in letters Of black the ADVERTISE
meDt that is desired TO be circulated.
There is no difficulty in passing these
coins. as the person who has them
passed upon him can in turn readily get
rid Of them by placing them IN payment
with the unmulilated side uppermost on
the counter. The stamping of these
advertisements differs from the other
methods OF mu.ilation, in that it does
not take out any OF the bullion. 1t is
simply The development ola new scheme
for reaching the public eve. All man.
ner Ct advertisements are now being
