How the President IL Elected

A great many people do not know sx.
actly how the votes for President and vice.
President are cas-, and the result sscer.
tanned. The following which we copy
from the New York Herald gives most Of
the details
Technically speaking the President is
not elected by the people and the people
do not vote directly for any Presidential
candidate. They east their ballots for
electors, and these electors choose Presi.
dent and Vice.President.
10 each state the number Of electors is
equal to the number Of Senators and Rep.
resentatives which the state has in Con-
gress. Voters who wish TO vote for Cleye-
land will cast their ballots for the Clevs-
land electoral ticket. The electoral ticket
which receives the greatest number Of
popular ballots in the State will be chosen
by the people. and the electors named on
It will be entitled to give their vote for the
candidate whom they represent.
The electors who are chosen will meet
in each state on the first Wednesday in
December and cast their votes for Presi.
dent and Vice. President. 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 be opened in the presence Of the
Senate aud House Of Representatives and
counted on the second Wednesday in Feb
ruary. The total nun. Der OF electoral
votes is four hundred and one. The can
didate for President receiving q majority
OF these-thst is, two hundred and one
will be declared President. II no person
has such majority, then the election goes
into the House Of Representatives. which
is required to choose President from the
persons mot exceeding three) who have
received the most electoral votes for Pres.
ident. In the House the vote is by states,
each state having one vote.

This week ends the most exciting poit.
cal contest in the history OF the country.
SO much personal abuse was INDUCED in
that national questions were almost lost
sight Of. In this respect all parties were
more or less guilty, yet the independents
and Democrats easily took the lead. In
their attacks on Mr.. Blaine they trans.
presscd every rule Of fairness and decency
and so persistent and malignant we're their
attacks that they injured rather than
helped their cause The Republican at
tacAs on Cleveland were mostly confined
TO the one acknowledged act Of wicked
ness ssd though the ether side claimed
that this ought not 10 be brought up

Hermit" in The Troy Tines gives some
interesting items in regard to New York
lawyers:
among the leaders Of the bar Evarts
holds unrivalled preeminence. He is
readily recognized in the street by his
slender form and his impressive counte.
nance, and when he rises in court both
the bar and the bench give him immediate
attention. Evarts limits his practice to
cases OF the highest importance. Hence
any new clients the may desire his services
must be properly introduced and must be
prepared to pay liberal retaining fee.
His oratory is noted for the length OF its
sentences, some OF which would fill a page
in an ordinary book This is natural and
therefore incurable, but In his case it does
not impair the force OF argument. He is
not making money now rs rapidly as a
few years ago, but many here who
would like to give him S25, 900 for his
professional income. Evarts is now near
three score and ten, but still retains the
fullness OF his powers and expects to last
u dozen years or more.
Fullerton is another noted lawyer, his
force being skill in cross examination.
In this point, indeed. he has long stood
unrivaled, and when a witness gets into
his hands he is sure to be emptied Of all
he knows. Both Evarts and Fullerton
were employed on the Beecher and Tilton
case, in which they displayed their pecu-
liar characteristics In an admirable man.
ner Fullerton's incomes is estimated at
from 800. 900 to s25, 900.
Francis A. Bangs is also noted for sharp
handling Of . witness. and his skill on
this point was admirably displayed in the
examination OF Ferdinand Ward. One Of
his most important cases was the trial Of
young Ketehum. the Wall street forger,
which occurred over twenty years ago.
He was also on the long -winded Di Cesno-
10 case. He charges Handsomely for his
services and makes on an average 500. 900
a year Roger A. Pryor. who WAS IN
