The Hoard and the Army to Deter mine the Louisiana Election. ARRIVAL OF TROOPS TO SUBJUGATE LOUSI ANA. From the N. O. Bullotin, 12th. In their councils at the Custom House yesterday the Radical leaders, Kellogg, Packard et al., decided that the Democrats stood a fair chance of carrying the State, even though live parishes were thrown out, and in order to perpetrate more villainy that they must have an official count of all the votes cast in the State. By this course they imagine that they can and will manipulate the country ballot-boxes and the tally slieets yet unreturned ;and, by means of a few fraudulent affidavits, manu factured for the purpose, they claim that they will present such a strong case to the Returning Board that the North will he satisfied. To prepare for such an emergency, these rascals sont into the parishes, before the election, emissariesfor the purpose of collecting names of ne groes to attach to t he affidavits, which will set forth that they have been un able, by intimidation, to vote; and right well have these sullions per formed their labor. The blank affidavits wero printed in this city, and were signed with jurat attached in blank by two officials vested with the power to administer oaths. Tho leaders here have also advised with Senator West and the Washington gang, as well as with Gov Stearns, of Florida, and the same programme will be carried out In that State. For the purpose of protecting (?) their Returnng Board in this Slate, they have induced Grant to order a portion of the U. States army to this c-itv, and four or five companies ol that armjof the “bestGovornmontthe world ever saw,” arrived here last night from Alabama, while another company came from Mississippi. Other companies are expected to day and to-morrow, and before the party leaders here will permit their Returning Board to commence its labors, there will be between fifteen hundred and two thousand troops here. With that formidable array of bayonets they expect to secure “moral suasion” sufficient to over awe the people of the State, aud pre vent them. in fact, from even offering a protest to the proceedings of the Returning Board. These facts are generally known to the North bv this time; hence the expected arrival here of numerous delegations of Conservatives from the various Northern cities and towns, and once here they can see for themselves the manner in which the Radical leaders hero have trampled under their feet, every doc trine of law or justice, which our 'peoplo only desire and now demand. I’nylng Business. The profit on wool-growing in Georgia in sixty-three per cent, on the capital in vested.

Mr. Ayers does not feed his sheep at any time during the year, neither has be introduced the im proved breeds, using only whatis known as native sheep.— St. Louis Republican. THE ELECTOR AI, VOTE. Tho Method uf Counting U— Meeting of tlk .Severn! Electoral Colleges—The Counting of the Vote by Congreaii—Prec edent* for Throwing Otit the Vote of u Ntute—The President of the Senate'* Power. New York Tribune, ltep. Tho extreme doubt iu which tho re turns receivod yesterday left tho re sult of the Presidential election, has made the counting of the electoral vote in February next likely to be an event of very great interest und im portance. On more than one occa sion the defects of the machinery for determining which of two or more candidates has been legally elected to the Presidency have been strik ingly shown, and attempts have been made to remedy them; but while none of these efforts havo met with success, it has also been fortunate that on no occasion which has ever arisen on has the actual result been affected by the vote- of any State which forwarded its vote and the validity of whose returns has been questioned. Now it seems possible such a contingency may arise. No provision has ever been made for settling a dispute of this kind. Section 1, article 11, of tho constitu tion directs that “each State shall appoint, in such manner as tho Leg islature thereof may direct, a num ber of electors equal to the whole number of Senators and Representa tives to which the State may ba enti tled in the Congress; but no Senator or; Representative, or person holding an office of trust or profit under the United States, shall be appointed an elector.” The twelfth amendment, of the con stitution provides that the electors “meet in their respective States, and voto by ballot, for President and Vice President, one of whom shall not be an inhabitant, of the same State with themselves. * * * And they shall make distinet lists of all persons voted for as President, and of all per sons voted for as Vice President, and of the number of votes for each; which lists they shall sign and certi fy, and transmit sealed to the seat of t he Government of the United States, directed to the President of the Sen ate. The President of the Senate shall, in the presence of the Senate and House of Representatives, open all the certificates, and the votes shall then be counted. The person having the greatest number of votes for President shall be the President, if such number be a majority of the whole number of electors appoint ed.” ate. By acts of 1792 and 1804, as adopted in the Revised Statutes of the United States, tho following regulations are made: Sec. 135. The Electors for each State shall meet and give their votes upon the first Wednesday in December in the year In which they are appointed, at such place, in each State, as tfii) Legislature of such State shall direct. See. 130. Tt shall be the duty of tho Executive of each State to cause three lists of the names of the Electors of such State to ho made aud certified, and to bo delivered to tho Electors on or before the day on which they arc required, by tho proceeding section, to meet. Sec. 137. The Electors shall vote for President and Vice-President respective ly, in the manner directed by tho consti tution. Sec. 138. The Electors shall make and sign three certificates of all the votes given by them, each of which certificates shall contain two distinct lists, one of the votes for President, and the other of the votes for Vice-President, and shall annex to each of the certificates one of the lists of tho Electors which shall have been fur nished to them by direction of tho execu tive of the State. Sec, 139. The Electors shall seal up the certificates so made by them, and certify upon each that the lists of all the votes of such State given for President and of all tho votes given for Vice-President, are contained therein. Sec. 140. The Electors shall dispose of the certificates thus made by them in the following manner: 1. They shall, by writing under their hands, or under the hands of a majority of them, appoint a person to take charge of and deliver to tho President of tho Sen ate, at the seat of Government, before I lie the first Wednesday in January then next ensuing, one of the certificates. 2. They shall forthwith forward by tho postoffleo to the President of the Senate, at tho seat of Government, one other of the certificates. 3. They shall forthwith cause the other of the certificates to bo delivered to the Judge of that district in which tbe Elec tors shall assemble. Sec. 142. Congress shall bo in session on the second Wednesday in February suc ceeding cverv meeting of tho Electors, and tho certificates, or so many of them as have been received, shall then be open ed, Iho votes counted, and the persons to fill tho offices of President and Vice-Presi dent ascertained and declared, agreeablo to the constitution. On several occasions prior to 1869, objections had been made to receiv ing the votes of certain States, on ac count of alleged irregularities, but no such vote was ever formally rejected. In 1864 a resolution was adopted by Congress excluding the electoral votes of States then in rebellion, but as no votes were received from any of them, none were rejected. A prece dent was, however, set for the rejec tion of the vote of a State by a joint resolution concurred in by both houses of Congress. When the question arose during the first half of the century touching the acceptance or rejection of tho vote of States, the returns from which were irregular, long debates some times arose which seriously inter fered with t he prompt announcement of the result. To shut off such a de bate, the twenty-second joint rule of the two houses was adopted in 1805, and re-adopted by each succeeding Congress except the present. The following is the text of the rule: “If upon the reading of any such certh cato by tiie tellers any question shall arise In regard to the counting of tho votes therm certified, tho same having been sta ted by tho presiiling officer, tho tenant shall thereupon withdraw, and said question shall be submitted to that body for its de ep Ion; and the speaker of the house shall in like manner submit tho said question to the house for a decision, and no question shall bedeck!od affirmatively,and no votes objected to shall be counted except by the concurrent votes of the two houses, which being obtained, the two houses shall re-as sernblo, and the presiding officer shal i then announce the decision or the question sub mitted ; and upon such question there shall be no debate in either house, and any other question to this object ■ for which the two houses are assembled may be sub mitted and determined In like manner, In 1873 the Electoral votes were re jected from several Slates under this rule, but its operation was so unsat isfactory that the sentiment nt the time was almost, Unanimous, not only for its repeal, but also for an entire change in the mode of electing Pres ident, It was repealed at the last session of Congress by a failure of tho Senate to adopt it. For this hasty review it appears (1) that tho president of the Senate has never assumed to determine any question as to the validity of the vote received from any State, but that when such questions have arisen, they have invariably boon referred to the two houses of Congress for their decision. 2. That neither house of Congress by itself has ever claimed tho right to reject tho vote of any State, or to determine, in case two sets of returns from a single State appear, which of them shall bo counted, except by au thority of the twenty-second joint rnle, which no longer exists. 3. That while neither tho Constitu tion nor tho laws of tho United States expressly provide the means of de termining controversies that may arise in regard to tho counting of the electoral vote of any State, that pow er has been exercised by the conCUT rent action of tho two houses of Con gress. THE COUNT IN KLORIHA. WHAT A MAN WHO HAS “BEEN THEBE” KNOWS ABOUT IT. Cinciunati Enquirer.] One of our reporters met a prudent and trustworthy gentleman yester day afternoon, when the following conversation took place: Reporter—l suppose you begin to feel that the Presidential muddle is clearing up since the arrial of the steamboat at Palatka ? A. B.—Well, lam inclined to the opinion that no matter how Florida votes, the State , will be counted for Hayes. Reporter—What! do you think fraud will be attempted ? A, B.—Well, I will tell you what I have just heard. Another gentleman and myself were standing talking in the Grand Hotel office, a little while ago, commenting on the dispatch from Florida, when a gentleman in terrupted us by saying that he could relieve all our anxiety about Florida. He then stated that he was United States Commissioner of Customs in Florida, and that ho had just arrived from that State, and that he would bet SI,OOO to SSO that the State would be counted for Hayes. He went on to say that he knew all the members of the Returning Board personally, aud that if the vote of Florida was needed for Hayes it would bo certainly forth coming. He said the matter had been arranged before the election, with the understanding thut the present contingency might arise. Several strong Democratic counties had been spotted, and irregularities in the election machinery provided for in advance, such as having the Republican clerk to resign when it was too late for any one else to re ceive a regular commission, etc. When questioned about, the actual voto of the State, he said he did not doubt it had gone Democratic, but it would surely be counted for Hayes. Ho said most, if not all, the young tnen of the State voted this time the Democratic ticket. Reporter—Did you learn the Com missioner’s name V A. B.—l did. He is certainly well acquainted with Florida and the peo ple there, as I am well acquainted with the people myself. A Lost Race. One of the most remarkable races that ever inhabited the earth is now extinct They were known as the Gaunches, and wero tho aborigines of tho Canary Islands In the sixteenth century pestilence slavery and the cruelty of tho Spaniards succeeded in totally exterminating them. They are described as having been gigan tic in stature, but of a singularly mild and gentle nature. Their food consisted of barley, wheat and goats’ milk, and their agriculture was of the rudest kind. They had a religion which taught them of a future state of rewards and punishments after death, and of good and evil spirits- They regarded tho volcano of Teneriilo as a place of punishment for tho bad. The bodies of their dead wore carefully em balmed and deposited in the catacombs- Their marriage rites wero very solemn and before engaging in them they were fattened on.milk.— New Haven Register.
