HOW THE PRESIDENT aS
ELECTED.

Technically speaking, the Presi-
dent is not elected by the people.
and the people do not vote directly
for any Presidential candidate. They
cas- their ballots for electors, choose
q President and Vice President. In
each State the number Of electors is
equal to the number of Senators and
Representatives which the State has
in Congress. In New York there are
thirty-six electors. Each party has
an electoral ticket with the names Of
these thirty-slx electors printed on
it. The electoral ticket which re-
ceives the greatest number Of popu
lar ballots in the State will be chosen
by the people, and the electors named
on it will be entitled to give their.
votes for the candidates whom they
represent. -.
The electors who are chosen will
meet in each State on the first We'd
nesday in December and cast their
votes for President and Vice Presi.
dent. AS q matter Of law, they can
then vote for whom they please. They
are not legally bound to vote for
Cleveland or Blaine, or any other
person who was g candidate before
the people. As matter Of usage and
public trust, they are expected to
vote for the candidate whom they are
pledged to support.
Certificates Of the votes cast by the
electors in each State are then made
out and sent to Washington. These
certificates will he opened in the pre-.
scnce Of the Senate and House Of
Representatives and counted on the
second Wednesday in February. The
total number Of electoral votes is 40l.
The candidate for President receiv.
ing the majority Of these-that is. POI
will be declared President. IF no
person has such majority, then the
election goes into the House of Rep
resentatives, which is required to
choose a President from the persons
not exceeding three-who have re.
ceived the most electoral votes for
President. In the House the vote is
by States, each State having one
vote.-Near York Herald.

THE DEAR OLD WIFE.
Her Heart sAches with Longing for One Wor
Of Love.
From Earper's BsZaT.l

Why should the woman who haS
been the faithful wife Of years need
other identifying appliances than tha
remembrances Of all that she ha$
been and done in those years? Sh9
and her husband are growing old to8
gether; she does not love him an iot5
the less for his grayness, his badness
his pallor, his craven lines; under a
of them she sees the man who wof
her heart so many years ago. In hiI
taste for beauty, his refinement an
cultivated sense, so much more acuts
than hers that he alone Of the tTS
must needs see change, and feel losH
and dissatisfaction, and manifest thg
feeling? Yet how many days the1
are, whether it be from this feelinA
or from simple indifference, that th
old wife wearies and her heart achf
with longing for one word Of all th
old words that. used to be poured Il
her ear, for one caressing gesture q
the hand, for one action that has III
other end or aim in view but the evE
dent promotion Of her happiness
No matter how old she is, be she eve
all her. threescore years and ten, t
woman does not live who can LID
happily withou, love. and if she hi
a husband, and they are living |
gether in apparent amity, without hl
love and some proof it. She knoT
that there have been old lovers Lott
married, she remembers the swe$
ballad of John Anderson my IT,
john which never moved her whe
she was young, but now seems
baye been written for herself, aud sl
sighs for some expression from b
husband that shall make her state
semble that of those old lovers.
is the indifference that breaks hh
heart. she does not know, in b
darkness concerning il and the reg
ons for it, how soon it may turn: n
hate; she does not know but 81
would rather it were hate, and dol
with. Without that love which b
been the breath Of her life in the pa h
she must fail, Or sink and wither inIN
self centred indifference herself; vii
It, she could still lift her portion
the world like Atlas. She Is sing
larly unselfsh if the want Of it dciEI
not make her review her life and III
its labors and sacrifices, and sro5
an indignation over the injustice
her lot, in which either the fame M
her life or of her love must burn OH
It would cost the husband Of this dE
wife-a man who doubtless de-
kindnesses to others-but lltiE
thought or exertion to manifest s
a love that may be warm beneath
crust, brief mentions Of gratifcat4M
or of pain now and then, smiles, ell

courtesy when with others; all OH
would net greatly impair his oIE

it that, if there are some who do %
ferently, the greater number Of hS
bands see, under the mask that SEI
has built, the woman of their e.
