but a law may be passed to give this vote diff

l was one of committee, composed Of Gen.

question. My proposition was not to give the
entire electoral vote of state to one set of
electors, but to give each their proportion.
according to the popular vote in the state.
For instance, Kentucky has thirteen electoral
votes. The state votes democratic. Give the
democrats first the two electors-at-large and
divide the vote among the other electors, Civ

The New Christmas Literature.

Mr.. Howells, in The Study.
There seems arising in these times a new
Christmas literature which boldly affirms that
it lies behind, that science has ignored some-
thing. has left something out of the account,
and that the forgotten factor is Christ himself.
The new Christmas literature is not specifically
adapted to the Christmas season; it is not ex-
pressed in any more kindly poems, perfervent
essays. or tales, little or long. alone. but in
books that have meaning for the whole year
and for every moment of life. but that may be
most profitably read and pondered now. when
all the associations of the time ought to re-
mind us OF the Man who came to bring peace
and goodwill to men. The new Christmas
literature does not necessarily deck itself with
sprigs OF holly, and battle itself in pools of
burning brandy on platters borne by the tin
sel-crowned. bottle-nosed genius of the feast to
the board smoking with bowls of wassail. while
the upper servants carouse in their hall, and
the scullions carry ont the fragments of the
second table to the dogs and the poor. But il
remembers that the Son of Man came eating
and drinking, and it does not frown upon hon
est revelry and innocent mirth, though it en-
treats each and every one of US first to love his
neighbOr as himself, and to be mindful of him
not only now, Sut throughout the year. Oddly
enough, after period of scientific exaltation,
in which it seemed as il man might really live
by the nebular hypothesis alone If he could
but have little help from the missing link.
the new Christmas literature denies that there
is anything Of life everlasting in these things.
and 1t reverts openly to the New Testament az
the sole source OF hope and comfort
