It provides for direct vote for Presi.

Electoral College, Each State shall have
a number of votes equal to the number
Of its Representatives and Senators in
Congress, to be given each candidate in
proportion to the total vote cast for each.
The term of Representatives in Congress
is fixed at three years, and Congress
shall meet each year on the first Wed.
nesday in January, the first session to
convene in the January succeeding the
November election.

Winter Reflections.

Now, then, its mean man who won't
present his uncovered ear to boy with
SNOWFALL. You may figure that it will
do boy just as much good to take a
shot as lamp post, but the next thing
is to convince him of the fact. He
doesn't really want to kill anybody, but
it delights him TO see the change of
eountenance as SNOWFALL "biffs" against
the auricular organ. You may cite a
hundred instances where the drum of
the ear has been crippled for life by such
conduct, but the next man who passes
in cutter will be made to realize that
all your advice is thrown away. II you
can't buy 'em off, you must dodge.

A LEARNED Bostonian writes: "Al-
though the Indians did not know how
20 swear when the white man came, they
soon learned to swear, and bad sufficient
words in their language for the purpose.
Eliot, in the Indian Bible, uses the In
dian word Osh (my Father for Creator,
ETC., and the early missionaries, when
addressing the Indian, used Gosh (your
Father The Indians soon saw that
that was the necessary word for profan-
ity, and adopted it. Gosh is in use to
some extent now, and perhaps some
pious people who say gosh are not
aware that it is downright swearing in

A REMARKABLE EXPERIENCE.
A schooner Surrounded by Large
school OF Whales.

New York, June 90. The Schooner N. b
Miller, Capt. Young, from Savannah, now at
this port, reports that on June 20, in lat 20
degrees, So minutes, long. "a degrees,
ia minutes, while in dead calm and smooth
sea, she wac surrounded by school of
whales as far as the eye could reach. They
were seen coming to the SUFFICE and blow
ing. They came in such close proximity to
the vessel that they could be reached from
the deck with a common harpoon, and in
several instances, within two feet of the
vessels side, squirting water against the side
and lying perfectly still for several minutes
at a time They then rolled leisurely over
and sank down head foremost until they
stood perpendicular in the water, so that
their full length and size could be as nearly
estimated as though they had been on dry
land, They swan around the vessel for
about three hours and seemed to be holding
complete survey of her and did not
seem to be the least shy. 1t
was magnificent sight, the ocean
being as clear as mirror with
not a ripple to obstruct the view.
They were in size about thirty-fvc to forty
feet in length, square blunt head eyes small,
about three feet below top of head and well
back from the nose near the jaw, their
blow was low and somewhat resemblcd
water thrown from sprinkler; a small,
round fin on the back, and square fluke heads
were about five to six feet in depth and the
after parts much smaller in proportion.
After about three hours light breeze sprang
up and the schooner sailed away from the
school which did not seem to be making any
Roadway to any point of compass
