One OF the electors, John W. Watts. was q
postmaster on the It'll OF November. when the
election was held. and up to the 18th, when he
resigned his Office. When the electoral colieSs
colleagues. and this was filed BY the election Of
Mr.. Watts. thus restoring the college as ostens-
bly, elected. No Law for filing this vacancy ex-
listed IN the state and the action OF the two
members in electing third person thereto was
questioned. The governor, . democrat, at
vacancy E. A. Croning, and. when this appointee
organized. two additional vacancies were
found and they were also hlled Nv the governor
and the vote was cast for Mr.. Tlden. The dem
ocratic managers did not strenuously urge the
acceptance of this return. certified BY the gov
ernor. but they pressed upon the commission
the fact that the resignation OF Watts created a
vacancy which no power in the state without
further legislation could fill, and that only two
votes should be counted. The commission
however, by another vote Of to decided to
give the three votes OF Dragon to Mr.. HAYES
and from that time little doubt was felt that he
would receive the votes necessary to his cleo
ton.
Debate before the joint session was limited to
two hours, but q few democrats finding the
election Of Mr.. Hayes inevitable undertook TO
delay the count as long as possible. and not
until O'Clock Friday morning, March 2. 1877,
was Mr.. Hayes Only declared elected. having
received the 1875 votes necessary to that pur-
pose. Immediately each house. which had been
in continuous session since 10 O'Clock OF the day
previous, adjourned.
Notwithstanding immediate danger to the
republic had been averted in this case no steps
to provide against such a contingency in the
future have since been taken, and in any future
election there still remains the danger OF dis
puted returns, with no power organized to de-
termine their validity. condition both parties
should in some way provide for.

Celebrated Case to Come Before the Gen.
erai Assembly in'This City I'm May.
There are going to be more Presbyterians to
the square inch in this city next May than
ever before in its history. The occasion
will be the meeting here Of the general
assembly, which is the highest BODY in that de-
nomination There are more than six hundred
delegates, and an equal number Of women will
be here in attendance on the sessions Of the
various women societies which will be in session
at the time. The meeting OF the assembly
will be held in the New York Avenue Church
and places will be found in the vicinity
mittee OF arrangements. composed OF repre-
sentatives Of the various Presbyterian churches,
will be appointed by Rev. DR.. Bartlett, the pas
tor Of the New York Avenue Church. who has
general charge of the arrangements for this great
gathering. In addition to the interest which
naturally attaches to meeting Of such q large
number OF the leading men and women Of this
important denomination the questions that are
likely to engage the attention Of the
assembly have more than q denominational
importance. One Of these questions in par
ticuiar has in recent years engaged the public
attention and is popularity known as the
Briggs case" The status of this famous
case is as follows: At the outset an attempt was
made to have the case tried by the
presbytery of New York. That body, however,
dismissed il on the ground, Is it would be
termed in the civil courts, OF mo cause Of ac-
ton" The committee OF prosecution of the
presbytery carried the case to the general as
sembly of 1892, which met at Portland, and the
assembly ordered the presbytery to try the
case on its merits. They did so and acquitted
Prof. Briggs on all the charges The prose-
cutting committee have now taken an appeal to
the general assembly, which meets here on the
18th of Nav.
As lie well known, he Briggs case is regarded
as involving the sta .dards of faith IN the Pres
byterian Church. aid the Questions relating to
this matter will be discussed In Sc
ries q sermons by Rev. DIR. Hamlin.
the pastor Of the Church of the Cove,
nant. The first sermon in this course will be
given tomorrow morning. DIR. Hamlin repre-
sents the moderate sentiment Of the church.
and his position is midway between that OF
President Patton Of Princeton on the one side
and DIR. Parkhurst Of New York on the other.

Pushing the Auti-Options Again.

indications that Mr.. Hatch is getting

will endeavor TO have cloture put as a part Of
