THE ELEOTORAI. 001.1.K0E.
Tha oommittea that wm appointed to
eonaidet whether any ohango in advisable
in tha manner af electing tha President,
er of counting tho electoral vote, have
presented two reports. The majority
reported in favor of tho following modifi
cations! the number of eleotoral votes to
which any candidate is eutitled from any
one State shall bo determined by multi
plying his entire popular veto in tho State
by the number of elootoral votes to wkioh
tha State may at that time be entitled,
and dividing the product by the number ef
votes oast in that State for all tho candi
dates. A candidate who receives three
fourths of the popular voto in any State
will on this plan be entitled to three
fourths of tho eloctoral votes of tho State,
but whether hia competitors will bo en
titled to the other fourth, is not made
clear by any statoment which wo havo
yot soon. If the intention is thus to
divide tho elootoral vote of a State, the
same result would be reached in a much
simpler way by electing tho President by
the popular voto, Any change of this
sort, however, would dorange the nice
system of cheeks and balancos which the
fVameri of our constitution devised. They
constructed tho government partly on the
theory that each State is a nation, and
partly on the idea that all tho Ktatoe
compose one oation. In aenordaneo with
the former idea, each State haß two
Senators: in tho apportionment o* Repre
sentatives, all are regarded as one nation,
Tho present manner of elooting the
President is a blending o*' the two ideas.
A f?tate which has ono Representative in
Congress, has three elootoral votos: a
State which has thirty-one Represents
tiros io Congress, has ojly thirty-three
eleetotal votes. Tho ono olootor for each
Representative it apportioned in accord
ance with tho second theory: the one for
each Senator, accords with the first
We are not prepared to olaim that wo
are wiser thaa our fathers. In this
respect we agroe with tho minority of the
aommittoe that the ohango is not advis
able. Oue amendment proposed in the
committee was that in ease of dispute
•ver tho vote in any State, it should be
deeidod by tho highest judioial tribunal in
State, and the vote should be counted
um*s both Ileuses should vote to exclude
it. No veto was taken on this amend
ment,
MR. HTBFUKNB V*. ROTATION.
In aftoont interview with Hon. B. P.
Howell, of the Atlanta Constitution,
Hon. A. H Stephens stated that ho had
not yet niade up his mind to aooept a re
nomination to Congress. lie is, however,
very decidedly of tho opinion that all of
our present ablo Representatives in Con
gress who are willing to serve should be
returned by their constituents. He pays
* high compliment to our present dolega
tinn, individually and oolleotively, which
ns a whole (o'course omitting himself) he
regards as among the ablest if not the
ablest in tho House. Of our immedi
ate llepresentative, Hon. Julian Hart
ridge, he says: “Mr. liartridge stands
high in the Judiciary Committee, and it
is very questionable if another in his dis
trict oould serve his constituents with
more ability, fidelity, and efficiency. His
reoent speech on tho quarantine law dis
played great ability as well as eloquence. ’ ’
Mr. Stephens is opposed to rotatiou lor
the sake of rotation, and as in his opinion
no man, however talented, without ex
perience as a member of the House is ca
pable of rendering to his oonstitueuts effi
cient servioe as a Representative, ho
thinks tho satbst course for the people of
Ooorgia in view of their best interests,
would be to return svory one of the pres
ent delegation who is willing to comicae
in the senrioe. —Savannah Ntvx.
A letter from Paris to the Constitution,
dated April 16th, gives a very favorable
aocoui't of the prospects ol the great
International Exposition, which was
opened there on the Ist iust. The part
contributed by the United States, the
writer says, will be at least equal to the
exhibit of any other nation, It not supe
rior. He says, however, that the hotel
keepers and merchants are manifesting
such a disposition to extort, that a groat
com plaint has already arisen; and this,
unless cheeked, will, he thinks, greatly
diminish the number of visitors. '
Alcxaader H. Stephens has been
spoken of * a probable candidate fo: the
next President. The Augusta Chronicle
published an editorial on the subject.
This has called out Mr. Stephens, whs
thanks the editorior the kind feelings ex
pressed in the article, but says that he
lies oo aspirationr, for the Presidency;
that he has no ambition except to he use
ful, and is satisfied that he ean be more
useful ia his present office than io any
other; and that the moment he sees no
prospeot of being longer useful, he will
resign. An exceedingly patriotic senti
ment, and just what all who have known
him long, have felt sure was his guiding
principle.
After a battle the official reports sum up
tho "killed, wounded and misßing;" but
hardly loss signifioantin those piping times
of peaoe are the daily newspaper reports,
"murdered," "suicided,” "disappear
ed.” Under that last head especially the
liat swolls ominously. During the month
•f January thore were about thirty mys
terious disappoaranoes in New York oily.
In Boston there have boon several sensa
tions from similar causos, and men and
watnen are all the time dropping out of
the ciroie that knew them with a com
pleteness that is startling. Some seek
conoealmont to oovor up orime, some to es
cape shame, and sumo are foully dealt with;
but whatovor the oauscs, every day furn
ishes in real life the materials for roman
oos more sad and horrible than any now
enibuluied in books.
Both (ho California. Speril of the
Time s, and the Rocky Mountain AW*,
speak of Pr. P. W. Carver, of California,
as remarkable for his skill with the rifle.
He gave an exhibition of his skill at
Denver, Colorado, reocntly, in shooting
at gluss balls thrown into the air. He
shot, at the first hall with the rifio turned
upside down and resting on his head, and
hit it. Hu then turned the rifle sidewise,
resting it on his head, and hit tho ball.
He then lay down ever a stool, turned his
rifle upsido down, and again hit the
mark. Ho shot with his back to tho ball,
rosting the rifle on his shoulder, managing
it with one hand, and holding a looking
glass in the other. Again he was suo
oessful. Ho shot with the rifle resting
against the hip, without taking sight,
and hit tho hall. He then purposely
missed a ball thrown twenty or thirty foet
high, reloaded his rifio, (a brooch-loader j
and hit the ball before it reached rim
ground. Out of one hundred glass bills'
thrown into tho air iu suooossion, he hit
ninety, Ho was taken prisoner by tho
Indian* whon young, and kept by them
fifteen or twenty years.

TUB ELECTORAL COUNT.
It is as good as settled tha* tho plan of
the House seloot oomtuittoo on nnot roceivo
evon tho endorsement of Congress, much
loss that of the people. The large and
espcoially tho evenly balanced States
would rejeol any proposition that looks to
a division of the electoral voto; because
it would reduoo their influence in the
grand canvass almost to a cipher. Take
the States of Ohio and Delaware, for aw
example. Ohio's 600,000 votes would
amount to nothing, siuoo ono half of her
vote* would bo counterbalanced by the
othor half. Delaware, on the othor hand,
would probably oast two of her votes for
one candidate, and one for tho othor —
thus booouiingof more importance in tho
final count than tho groat State of Ohio.
The proposed sixteenth amendment finds
therefore few friends, although it is oon
oeded by all that some aetion should be
taken before tho next elootion iu order
to avoid tho dangers of another disputed
count.
The Senate oomuiittee on the electoral
oount do not offer a constitutional amend
ment. Their plan takes the form ot a bill
prescribing the method of counting the
eleotoral votes and deciding any question
that may arise. Its principal points are
that each State shall provido for the judi
cial determination of any controversy
oonoerning the appointment of elootors,
and that every such determination made
by tho highest State court shall bo con
clusive ovidouce as to the of
the electors so declared to lujjjr been ap
pointed ; that whore decisions
from different same State
come before of the two
llousos of CongrSKhe votes of those
eleolora only shall be counted, whose title
as electors the two Houses actiug separ
ately, shall concurrently deoide upon. The
returns of the electors of the several States
are to be transmitted to the President of
tho Seuate by the second Wednesday next
after the meeting of the electors, i stead
of the first Wednesday in January, as pro
vided by law.
The bill is lengthy, and until it is actu
ally reported ana thus be.t end amendment
of the committee, weeannotafford space in
which to priut it. Betides, it may be es
sentially modified iu the joint session of
the committees, if they attempt to reach a
common conclusion. The subjeot is, how
ever, ono of the deepest importauoe, and
as soon as anything definite is determined
upon, our readers shall have it. It is to be
regrett. and that action was not had earlier
in the Sstsdoti.—GatsMute* <

TROUBLE AMONG THE CONVICTS
at Helena.
They Attack the Guard and Several
Rup.
One of the Guard Berloutly Shot t
[Special to the Montgomery Advertiser.]
Birmingham, Ala., April 29.
▲ serious outbreak occurred on Sun
day last, near Holena, at the ooal mines
of the Eureka Cempany. This company
haa at work for it, as laborers, about its
coal mines, and coking ovens, washing
machines, eto., not less than one hundred
penitentiary oonviots. Within the last
few weeks, several very desperate white
felons have been rcoeivedby them, whose
term of sentenoo was for life.
The following are the particulars:
The convicts, while being led out to
dioner, made a broak, disarming the
guards, and seriously wounding one of
them. Among the lot were seven who
were in for life, and who were quite des
perate. The one who appeared worse
than the rest was named Smith, (he is
known to the peoplo of this county as
John Faet, who shot at Judge A. P.
Allgood several years ago,] and was
from Talladega. He, it was, who gave
the signal for attack. As the guards open
od the door for them to come out, and af
ter quite a number wero out, Smith aoiz
ed Danforth, oue of the guards, by tho
throat, wrenched his pistol out of his
bunds and levelling at a Mr. Simmons,
demanded him "to shuck that coat and
hat," which was complied with. Aafif on
as Smith had released Danforth, he (3.)
was fired upon by Harris, another guard,
slightly wounding him. At this, Smith
turned to Harris, who was getting away,
and fired upon him—hitting Danforth
who had como betweon them. The load
struck Danforth tu the loft thigh, break
ing the bone. In ills meantime tho other
oouviots were not idle. Breaking into
the guard room, thoy possessed them
selves of all available weapons anil am
munition, and what citizens' clothes they
could find; then, going to the blacksmith
shop, they proouted a chisel and endeav
ored to get all the oonviots te leave.
Whereupon about 17 took up their line
of march down to the washing machines
—each one having seme weapon. They
seemed to bo in no hurry whatever, leis
urely marching alung the north end of
the branoh road. They perpetrated
several scares on the citizens whom they
met, asking them for money and if they
hud good clothes, calling on them, with
aimed guns. After divesting theinselvos
of their stripes and shackles, they went
north on the railroad until they crossed
Cahaba river bridge, where thoy left the
road and went down the stream. The last
seen of them was soar what is known as
Laney's ford. There are conflicting ru
mors in regard to the number who escap
ed—the lowest number being twelve and
the highest seventeen. There wore elev
en soea ou tho railroad track and several
seen going south. W.

A woman, well dressed, went to a
police station in Brooklyn, L. 1., on the
22d of April, with a child, four weeks old,
which she said had been left in her care
by a man and woman ou the Fulton ferry
boat that morning. She said the child
was fretful and she sat down by it to try
to soothe it. The other woman said, “If
you will hold the child a little while, we
will go and get some peppermint for
it." She took the ohild: they walked off,
and did aot return. It was suspected
that she was the child's mother, and after
a little management, which revealed one
or twe falsehoods which she had told, she
burst into tears, and admitted that it was
her own. Her bnsband had left her, four
months before, to seek work in Baltimore,
and she had not heard from him since.
Bhe was compelled to take in sewing for
a living, and decided to try to pet the
child into some charitable institution.
She promised to take better care of it,
and want away.
In the fall of 1876, ia Pickens county,
Robert Sothem married Miss Kate Ham
briek. Soon after, Mr. Hambrick gave
a party. Miss Naruisaa Cowart, a former
sweetheart of Robert, was one of the
guests. Mrs. Sothera, being jealous,
asked her husband not to dance with
Mias Cowart that night. He promised
this, but about midnight Mrs. Sotbern,
returning to the room after a short ab
sence, saw them on the floor together.
Walking up to them, she reminded her
husband that he had promised to dance
that set with her. Mr. Sothera and
Miss Cowart both objected to the change.
Mrs. Sotbern borrowed her father's
knife, returned to the room, and saw Miss
Cowart skipping across the ro >u to her
seat by herself Walking up to her, she
remarked, “You have danced enough,”
and stabbed her three times, killing her
instantly. As soon a* the company real
ized what had been done, some of the
men placed themselves at the doors, and
declared that no one should leave the
house; but Sothera drew his wife’s arm
within his, drew his pistol, and sa',d, “I
am going to leave the house, and my wife
is going with me.” That night they dis
appeared, and for a long time nothing was
heard about them. Last January they
were arrested; on the 28th of April, after
a trial of four days, she was found guilty
of murder, and sentenced to be hung.
Her counsel have appealed to the Su
preme court, and every possible exertion
wiil be made to save her life.
It is rumored in San Francisco that the
Russian government is fitting out vessels
there to be sent out as privateers to prey
on British commeroo as soon as war is
declared between Russia and England,
that Russian agents are negotiating for
the purchase of one or more vessels; that
letters of marque, duly signed by the
Russian authorities, but not filled out,
arc in the city: and even the names of
some who are expected to command, are
mentioned. No official information of
any of these facts has been received in
Washington. England and the Uiiitcd
States are mutually bound by treaty not
to allow privateers to be fitted out in
time of war, but the dm is to fit up the
vessels before war breaks out, and slip off
to sea as soon as war is declared before
they can be stopped. The steamer
Cimbria, one of the vaasels running from
Hamburg to the Uuited States, anchored
in Southwest Harbor, Maine, April 28th,
with sixty officers and six hundred soarnen
of the Russian navy on board as passen
gers. She brought ho freight, but was
well provided with coal and ship stores.
As soon as she arrived one of the Russian
offioers sent a long dispatch in cypher to
Admiral Lcssowsky at St. Petersburg,
which has not been answered. The
offioers and crow of- tho vessel are all
Gormans. All on board profess not to
know where they will bo sent, or for what
purpose. Those who went on board could
soe neither arms nor ammunition, and the
officers say that there are none on boarii.
Washington Letter.
Washington, D. C., April 30, 1878.
The Legislative, Executive and Judi
cial Appropriation bill, which will prob
ably pass the House to-morrow or next
day, covers an amount some fifteen
hundred thousand dollars less than the
estimates. It also provides for such
changes in several departments as will
result in aa annual saving of about that
amount.
General Banning and others will try to
have his army re-organization bill made
part of the army appropriation bill. This
will bo done with a view to forcing the
Senate to accept the reduction in the
army desired by the House.
One of the last acts of the House of the
44th Congress was to adopt a resolution
to the effect that Samuel J. Tiidcn was.
and R. B. Ilayos was not, elected Presi
dent. The confession of NoLin of the
Florida Board of Canvassers goes far
towards proving the truth of that resolu
tion. No more astonishing confession
was ever made than that of McLin. He
confesses to doing, under excitement and
by reason of pressure from personal
friends of Mr. Hayes, certain wrong acts
which gave the vote of Florida to Hayes.
It is safe to say of it McLin had
made this statement pronto the final
decision of the Electoral Commission,
that Commission would not have dared to
return Hayes as elected. This being the
fact, and the Electoral bill providing that
the rejected candidate shall not be denied
the right te appeal to the courts, it would
not seem improper or unreasonable, if the
case, after investigation, is as now stated
by McLin, that Congress should pass the
necessary act to give jurisdiction to the
courts. In fact, unless, after investigation,
Mr. Hayes should see the propriety of
retiring, I do not see that Congress can
do less than is above suggested. Un
questionably there is a great difference of
opinion in the Democratic party in regard
to Mr. Tilden. There is no uso in deny
ing that. Tho objection that many
Democrats have to him will, though it
ought not to do so, have influence in their
consideration of the question of getting
rid of Hayes. If we adapt the opinions
of Mr. Tilden's strongest opposers, or if
i we g so far as to say that Mr. Hayes is
the better man of the two, we still ought
not to let that affect the decision of tha
question ap now presented.

Don to go and see his girl, and not lose his

particularly interested; perhaps it isn’t
true though. Seminole.

SEA FOAM is an entirely new Inren
tion, without any of the Nad finalities of */•#<
or baking powdsn, aoda, or saieciina.
SEA FOAM contains no Ingredient or
element which can produce an injurious effect,
but ou the contrary has in itself a tendency io
sustain and nourish the human system. It is
ABSOLUTELY PURE
Not infrequently the best of flour frets all tho
blame, when In reality the dark color and poor
taste are both caused by tho use of inferior
raising powder. Many taking powders now
highly recommended by grocers, and hence
largely sold, are made of old bones ground up,
and by a chemical process mixed with other
ingredients. Before lending their Influence to
Increase the sale of any baking powder, grocers
would do well to ascertain the reputation and
standing of its manufacturers. They would
thus avoid becoming Instrumental In perpe
trat;:,g a fraud on their e.istomers, and would
In the long run make more money. Of course
no honest men would knowingly lend himself
to such a fraud upon his customers, and It is
very poor i>ol!ry for any grocer to attempt to
palm off luiLrluT gfxds when the heist ar©
asked for. Ho may by so doing make a little
money at the time, but he luiely will at some
time, if the fraud ’. discovered, lose one of hla
best customers, and with him a score of other©
who might otherwise havo dealt with him.
A merchant’s wisest policy is to secure the best
customers, and they are Just the ones who
want the best goods. SKA FOAM is
WITHOUT AN EQUAL
It is prepared from the purest and best materi
als only, and Is nevef under any circum
stances adulterated. There Is no longer any
excuse for sour, heavy, or sodden bread, bis
cuit, or pastry. Every housewife In the land
should make herself acquainted with the facte
we havo stated, which are indisputable, and
she will soon ascertain that most of the yeast
preparations now being sold are anything
else but what they profess to ho, and that
this ia the main reason why so large a propor
tion of tho broad consumed by the masses of
the community is unhealthful. Invalids ar©
especially interested in this question of yeast,
and ought to keep constantly iu mind the im
portant fact that their dietary should at all
times be the best, and that under the most
fkvoratlo circumstances thoy can not hope to
regain health and strength unless their food la
tho most healthful and nutritious that can be
obtained. Good food makee good blood, and
the nerve force Is strengthened or Impaired In
proportion as the food wo eat Is nutritious o
otherwise.
SEA FOAM is worthy of a fair trial, and
that is all we ask for It.
No ono having once used it will ever use any
other preparation In tho baking powder line,
but will at once aud forever banish from the
house the various crude mixtures and bogus
preparations In the form of yeast that have so
long and so persistently tended to destroy
