TttcSSri Jrtlnt Rnlr. Wh. Spoclil to th* N. V, SunJ J Tho doteriuiuution of the Demo cratic majority iu the House of liep* resontatlv’cs to resist to the last ex tremity,the oUim of ttieltePubUaaii lealers, that Senate alone opens and counts tho electoral votes, cannot be doubted. There may be some difference of opinion among the Democrats as to the status of the 2‘2d joint rule, but there Is none ns to the right of the House to have an equal voice with the Senate in determining all disputed questions which may arise duriug the counting of the electoral votes in joint convention. As to the 2‘2d joint, rule, it is the opinion of the best parliamentarians in the House, and of the most distin guished constitutional lawyers not members of Congress, that it is cow ns much a joint rule, binding the two houses of Congress, as it has been at anv time since its adoption. But, independent of the twenty second joint-rule, the Democrats will maintain that the House of Repre sentatives has the right to go behind the action of a Returning Board and tiie certiflcates of the Executive of a State in a ease where it is manifest that a flagrant wrong, a palpable fraud, has been committed. The Constitution, they will hold, com mits the appointment of Presidential Electors to• the people of the State and not to a body of men who were created by the Legislature of a State for an entirely different purpose. The Returning Board of Louisiana has no authority under the Election law of 1872. to do more than canvass the votes for Electors, but as to all State officers it is given judicial powers. Therefore, if it throws out the votes of five or six parishes and thereby disfranchises ten thousand citizens of the State, and virtually appoints Presidential Electors itself, its action will bo null and void. It will bo maintained, moreover, that the Constitution of Louisiana vests all judicial power in the Judiciary, and therefore the Legislature could not vest another body, not a part of the judicial system of the State, with suoh powers. Carl Kchurz Mentioned Once More. St. Louis Special to Chicago Timas.] Mr. Carl Scburz is more pronounced in his views upon the acts of usurpation in Bouth Carolina. He says: “I begin to see here and there in the papers hints of the grounds on which this interference of the military with a State Legislature will probably be defended. They will claim that the Board of Canvassers had the right to throw out the returns of the Counties of Laurens and Edgefield on account of frauds. Then they will claim that the Supreme Court of the State exceeded its authority and usurped the functions of another body in first commanding the Board of Canvassers to furnish certifi cates of election to certain candidate!, and afterward directing its Clerk to fur nish these certificates. This may all be; but, suppose it is, where is the paragraph or section of the Constitution and law which conferred on the military power the right to interfere and say whether the Supreme Court acted rightly or wrong ? Under the Constitution and laws any Judges who acts illegally and improperly can be reached and punished in various ways which are established : but where is it provided that the armed power can put itself In the place of constitutional au thority and execute its will by the bayo net ? In whatever way I look at this latest procedure in South Carolina, I can see in this interference by the military power in the organization of the Legisla ture only an act of usurpation and a trans gression of the law. In a word, this mat ter is really not different from the Louisi ana affair in January, 1860, and the con clusion of the honest and thinking citi zens, with whom justice and law out weighs party interests, can not be uncer tain or conflicting respecting these pro ceedings.” It may not be generally known that the political intimacy between Mr Schurzand Governor Haves is now of the closest character. There is good grounds for stating that the German statesman and the Republican candidate for the Presidency have been in frequent communication since the election, and that Governor Hayes’ views and those of Mr. Bchurzare in harmony. Indeed ever since writing his letter accepting the nomination last summer Governor Ilayes has consulted Mr. Schurz on every step taken, and has followed his advice. It is understood furtbur that Mr. Schurz’s present course and policy is iudo-sed by Governor Hayes, and that both of them are looking with the greatest distrust and alarm upon the semi-despotic movement of President Grant. Fred Grant “Bull-nazes'’ a Keporttr. [Chicago Times.] On yesterday morning Mr. Sullivan, city editor of the Journal, sent one of his reporters, a young man named Donovan, to military headquarters, to make some inquiries in regard to the state of affairs in the Indian country. Gen. Drum received him with that politeness which is charac teristic of the man, and answered such questions as he thought were proper, but refused to eontihue the conversation when the reporter reached a point beyond which the military man thought he had no busi ness to go. Donovan went away and soon afterward returned with a note from Mr. Sullivan. At this interview, Donovan, who is an impulsive young Irishman, spoke in an offensive way to Gen. Drum, who ordered him out of theofflce. When the altercation was at its height, Prince Fred hap pened to step in, and, seeing that Gen. Drum was angered with the reporter, took the chastisement, if any were neccessary, oft the hands of his superior officer, who, though somewhat on in years, is yet able to take care of No. 1, and, without a word, struck the young man a blow across the face. A little “scrim mage” followed, and Donovan pro ceeded to the armory and swore out a warrant for young Grant’s arrest on a charge of assault with intent to do a bodily injury. Fred was subse quently arrested, and gave bonds of S4OO for his appearance Friday. JEFFERSON DAVIS. HOW HE GAVE HIB NEW YOBK FRIENDS THE SLIP. New York Sun, Not. 20.) Over two hundred persons inquired at the New York Hotel for Jefferson Davis after the fact of his return from Europe on Saturday last was made known. The hotel clerks knew nothing about bim except that tiiey had rooms prepared for Mr. Davis, wife and daughter, and they had not occupied them. Thereupon a story got afloat that Mr. Davis was seriously ill in a private house. The fact is, that as soon as the Adriatic reached her wharf, his baggage was obligingly checked without ex amination by order of Gen. Nichols; he entered a hack with his family, and was driven to the Pennsylvania railroad station, and there he pur chased tickets for Memphis, telling a friend at the time that he had a business engagement in Vicksburg which would compel him to be in that city on the Ist of December. Within an hour after his arrival in port he was en route for the South east. MOBILE & GIRARD R. R. Columbus, Ga., November 20, 1870.
