It's reported that . Democratic sena-
tor has said in effect that person not Q
member may be elected President pro
TEN. of the United States Senate. That
senator would do well to read again the
constitutional provision on the subject
Il il in the words following;
"Thc Senate shall choose their other
officers, and also president pro fe"'' IN
the absence Of the vice-President, or
when he shall. exercise the office OF
President Of the United States.
Note. by the way, that the Constltu-
tion itself says that in case Of the death
Of the President Of the United States
the vicc-President would exercise, not
the powers and duties Of the office, but
the Office itself.
But as to the point first above al
luded to, we call attention to the fact
that the Senate is to choose President
pro tenn. sin the absence Oh sne VICE
President" This it can do every day,
il it choose so to do. A few years ago
Mr.. BAYARD was elected President
pro tenn, but held the office only few
days, Mr.. DAVIS, Of Illinois, having
been chosen to succeed him. When the
Constitution says that the Senate must
choose a President pro TEN. in the alb
sence Of the Vice-President, it as good
IS says that the man of their choice
must be q senator. The fathers Of the
republic SO construed the provision
quoted above. Either that is the mean
ing or else it means that the Senate
might elect any chance occupant of a
seat in the gallery or on the floor to be
its President pro tenn.

NOVEMBER 80, 1885.

John r. Moss, Esq.,:
Dear Sir,-Your letter of the Goth
Of November has been received, refer
ring to piece written by myself, which
appeared in the Richmond Dispatch
October 18th. The portion of the com
munication which you regard as making
reflections on you was not so regarded
nor intended by me.
Written under the excitement of po-
litical discussions, my meaning was
simply that the nomination was not
much desired by the active politicians
of the Republican party in the county.
Upon reflection and consultation
with friends, | withdraw the whole Of
the clause you refer to as offensive
and that the same publicity be given
this my withdrawal as was given to my
communication. Respectfully,
ALEX. j. BoNDURANT.

A. J. BOndurant, Esq:
Sir,-In the Richmond Dispa :h Of
the 18th of October last there appeared
communication written by yourself
signed Justitia," in which you made
a statement about me--to wit e" But
when the Republican nomination went
begging he myself came to the front
as Republican and followed the clan,
giving as a reason that ne was doing
nothing and wanted something to do"
While the other illusions to me in your
communication are unkind, yet am in
clined to regard them as legitimate
criticism of my political acts; but the
statement quote above | regard as a
gross insult, and is absolutely false, and
/ demand Of you withdrawal of this
false charge, to be given the same pub
licity as the insult you published.
Respectfully, JOHN r. Moss.
