J ONST IT UTI OjSTALIST. AUGUSTA. C*A. SUNDAY MORNING, JUNE 14.185S THE ELEOTOSAL VOTE. The politicians are amusing themselves with making calculations as to the result of the electoral vote for President and Vice- President. General Grant may, if permit ted, break their slates with his sword. Since, however, it is a very innocent way of speculation and as Grant’s sword may prove weaker than a willow wand, in case of a proper Democratic nomination at New York, we, without claiming to be a prophet or the son of a prophet, will try our hand at prediction. Let us, to begin with, have the electoral vote to which each Slate is entitled. It is ns follows: STATES REPRESENTED. Nebraska 3 Nevada 3 New Hampshire 5 New Jersey 7 New York 33 Ohio 31 Oregon 3 Pennsylvania 26 Rhode Island 4 Tennessee 10 Vermont 5 West Virginia 5 Wisconsin 8 California 5 Connecticut *> Delaware 3 Illinois....

Missouri If New Hampshire.... !5 New Jersey 7 New York 33 Ohio 31 Oregon 3 Pennsylvania 245 175 California ft Connecticut 3 Delaware 3 Illinois 13 Indiana 13 Keutnck v 11 Maryland 7 .Michigan 3 RADICAL. Nevada "5 Rhode Island 4 Tennessee U? Vermont 5 Wisconsin 8 West Virginia 5 lowa ...» K Kansas 3 Maine < .Minnesota 4 Massachusetts IB Nebraska 3 72 Mhould the proscribed States lie permitled to vote by the usurpers, the result will he about as follows, unless the bayonets do it all: RADICAL. Florida 3 Lou.siana 7 Mississippi 7 North Carolina 9 South Carolina ti S3 72 Total 104 DKMOC RATIO. Alabama S Arkansas 5 fiewgia 9 Texas 3 ViiytoLi 13 :>s 175 Total ■213 Deuioeratic majority, 1419 electoral votes. In prospecting for victory, the Democrats seem to rely very little upon the Omnibus States, and make their chief fight for Penra sylvania. The immense vote of Pennsyl vania, the even balance of parties there, and the necessity of having her in the Demo cratic line, g. ail ting tiic exclusion or Irautl ulent manipulation of the , South, may work injury to Mr. Pendleton’s nomination and cause him, though we trust not, to i#>. drop ped for some citizen of the Ive’yHtonc Btate. We have figured out a table of probabili ties, somewhat different from the above, find leave it to the dissection of Ihe curious. Our (able is a follows: RADICAL. Vermont 5 Massachusetts 12 Michigan 8 Missouri 11 Rhode Island 4 Tennessee 10 Alabama 8 Florida 3 Louisiana 7 Mississippi 7 South Caroliua 3 low a 8 89 DEMOCRATIC. Connecticut 3 New York 513 New Jersey 7 Pennsylvania HO Ohio 21 Illinois 13 Indiana.. 13 California ft ■Oregon 3 Nevada 3 .Minnesota 4 Nebraska... 3 Kentucky 11 Alarvlaud 7 Delaware 3 131 DOUBTFUL. Arkansas 5 Texas 3 Georgia 9 Wisconsin 8 Maine 7 67 New' Hampshire 5 Virginia 13 Kausas 3 West Virginia ft North Carolina 9 As it would require, upon this full repre sentation, 159 votes to make a choice, it will be seen that, giving the Radicals all the States marked “ doubtful,” they would still lack 3 votes of a triumphant result, where as the Democrats, though sorely pressed, ha-ve more than enough votes to elect their ■candidate. If any of our readers can im prove C>n this schedule, we would be most liappy ter hear from them. If they detect any errors of calculation or judgment, we will not quartet with attempts at perfec tion. All such speculation is liable to dis aster, but we know a gentleman sanguine enough to wager someth?## better than a pair' of shoes that the we have published above will not be changed .in the month of November. The Radical' Plan of Levying Black ~M att. to Elect* Hiram.— I The following « strictly private ” dfcular was handed us yesterday, says the Pittsburg Post, by the postmaster, to whom it W3S sent.

J Union Executive Rooms, j Official Department, > Washington, D. C. j Siß‘ Owing to the unprecedented char acter o i the approaching election, and the extensive and costly measures necessary to be instituted, the National Managing Com mittee has authorized that a general c&m iuiHLB fund be immediately raised. It is! u resumed that every appointee nriSer the Government, without regard to partisan oredilectte ns, wisely understands the sig nificance of the obligations resting upon him, and a prompt and cordial is accordingly solicited. You are expected to contribute five dolla. rs to this general hand, the immediate reception' of whlch your continuance in ofll^ e over ot^er applicants, and secures to yourself, or a friend by you recommended (uo personal objections occurring) favorable considera tion to such other place of profit and trust as maj r be desired in your local politics!

All favors and names are carefully re corded for future reference, but no notice will be taken of letters which fail to con tain the required remittance. Your action will be put upon file in the order of its reception. Address, National Managing Committer, Washington, D. C. [From the St. Louis Republican. The Israelites and General Grant. The Israelites of this city are preparing for a big demonstration against General Grant. In this they will follow the exam ple of their brethren all over the Union. It is a universal and a spontaneous movement, in which they appear to join most natural ly. Partisan politics are not at the hot tom of this matter, and exactly the same oppo sition would have been manifested by nine ty-nine out of a hundred Israelites against General Grant had he been the nominee cf the Democracy. General Grant made him self odious to the Israelites. By his well known order against the Jews lie endeavor ed to cast odium on their whole race, and the whole Israelitish population of Hiis country pays him back his insult in the same coin. He excluded them from his camp; they now exclude him from their suffrages. If in reality this land ever was ail asy lum for the oppressed of any country, it was the refuge of the Israelites. Ostra cised and oppressed everywhere for their origin, their habits, and their religion, they have lieen treated in this country on the ground of absolute equality with their fel low-citizens. The American laws do not. draw the least discrimination between Lsra elites and other citizens, and, in conse quence of this wise and proper legislation, even the unjust prejudices against their race as fast dying out. And yet there was* one man who dared to officially revive the old prejudices, and establish an odious < I in crimination between Israelites and other people, and this man is now a candidate for the Presidency. To support him would very naturally be interpreted as an indorse ment of General Grant’s views, and the Israelites in voting for him would seem to invite him to repeat his insult on the first opportunity. He might receive negro'vjslt ors at his levees, and shut the doors of the White House against Israelites ; and then Ju all propriety tell them that, knowing his programme before they elected him, they have no reason U) complain. We read in the Israelite papers that the anti-Grant movement is one in which all the various Hebrew congregations join, without exception. Opposition to General Grant’s election as President has become the stanJgrd basis of action in all Israelil.- ish meetings in America. Whether they meet for religious or qejipvolent purposes, It becomes th eeelerum cenm of all Israel ites In tlie Union, that Gen. Grant must be defeated. Innumerable friends of liberty will assist them in their struggle. Else where we publish a communication, taken from the Aheudsktuny, of this city, acconi panied by a protest, regarding the candi dacy of Gen. Grant. The signatures to this paper all among the best known of our citi zens, and their respectability cannot be questioned. What Will the BefitograljSf Po ? It lias been asked, “ What will the De mocracy do if we help to place them in power?” The question is so well and ap propriately answered and so satisfactorily summed up by lieu. \V- A. Gorman, of Minnesota, in a late speech, tffa& vye insert the answer here: If the Democracy get power in the gov ernment, they will reduce the tariff tax on all your tea, and what you drink and wear. They will restore the Union, and turn over all the Southern States’ expenses to be paid by (the South alone. We will turn out and abolish ten thou sand abolition Bureau office holders, and saye miljinju; of dollars to the people’s pockets. We will bid the South support them selves, and go to raising cotton and sugar, and we will continue to raise produce to feed them. We will pay the public debt in the same autfOf)Py we pay you and the same you pay each other, snd thus save millions more in the pockets of people. If we pay the rich ip we will pay you in gold. If we pay you m pikf }} l °- ney, yye will pay plethoric bond holder;: in, paper money. Wj >yill enact laws to enable you to buy your goods where you can buy cheapest, aud sell vybfore ypii can get the best price. We will prgtqct /if boy from the encroach ment of capital. We will leave each State to goyerii itseli, limited only by the Federal Const) We will reduce the army in the South! and send them to the plains to protect the frontier n.nd new routes to the Far West. We wilt Restore commerce, peace and good will between f}ie North and South. We will reduce taxes, JjQth State and na tional. We will lessen the office-holders, and m lease yon from taxation to support them. We will enact laws inside and not out side the Constitution. We will restore peace at home and main tain your honor aor.oaif. We will inaugurate a day of moderation, order and good will, instead of hate and ill will, as now taught by Jacobin politicians. We will give .equal rights to all, and grant exclusive privileges to none. We will substitute calm statesmanship for mad Jacobinism. We will make pets no longer of negroes at the expense of the whites, nor force suf frage for them at the expense and against the will of those who have created and maintained the Government. A Statesman Needed—A Quaker’s Opinion of Grant.— Toward Gen. Grant we feel wotting but friendship; we have no faults to paupl.e, pp f&phey no desire to pa rade his faults ; no selflsh jntej'efits to sub serve; no desire for the Supremacy of this or that party, simply for party’s sake—but only a strong and abiding hope that our country will be preserved, and the liberties we now enjoy perpetuated forever. We re gard the nomination of Gen. Grant as an etTOjii. He is solely a military man—has no ft ther than as a general; has never naq an cpporfuuitv to display those talents pee'essary iroran to repre sent tiiis erept and ' "rowing republic.— Claiming Gqristiaii people, 1 we liavei no regard for a Christian representative in j our choice. Knowing that a great republic like ours can only be maintained by the wisest legislation, and needs the service of great statesmen, Wo yet hand it over to schoql boys ill experience ami soldiers by prolessiojj. That those who Serve their country 'well shpukj be rewarded, we ad mit; but let us reward Because a noble sailor should snatch us lVora a gray?, W e should not feel bouud to employ him as oqy physician. Yet the manner in which we ajvfeeding this country over to the soldiers is parallel. Far be it from us to cast a slur Ifpov y soldier simply because he has been ft soldier. Nor will we prowd u|x>n him offices of trust and im portance X° r tbe same reason. [Chicago Herald of Peace. The Chicago platform, on the uaopey ques tion, remind one of the old rhyme, sligntlj altered: Jt Wires to, W»d wires cult, And still it leaves all folks in doubt If H. 0. Grant and S. .Colfax Mean pay in gold or jin greenbacks. [From the Cincinnati Enquirer. Who are the Kepudiators—Senator Sher man’s Letter. The Radical organs are accusing Mr. Pendleton audi his friends of being repudi ators, because J-they are opposed to paying the nve-twenty bonds in" gold. Now, on this subject, we want to give them good Radical authority; yea, more than that— good impeacher authority. We allude to Senator Sherman, of Ohio. Did any of them ever see ids letter? For fear they may have not, we republish it. He is the Chairman of the Committee on Finance in the Senate. He is, therefore, well acquaint ed with all the bond laws. We ask our Republican friends to read his letter; and • J ter doing so, to remember that Grant and Colfax are the bondholder candidates, and are in favor of paying the five-twenty bonds in gold. Here is Senator Sherman’s let ter : “ United States Senate Chamber, Washington, March 20, 1868.—Dote Sir: f was pleased to receive nyour letter. My personal interests are the same as yours, hut, like you, I do not intend to be in fiuenced by them. My construction of the law is the result of careful examination, .•uni ! i'cel quite sure an impartial court would confirm it if the case could lie tried before a court. I send you my views, as fully stated in a speech. You idea is that we propose to repudiate or violate a prom ise when we offer to redeem the ‘principal’ in legal tenders. “ 1 think the bondholder violates his promise when he refuses to take the same kind of money he paid for the bond, l! tlie case is to be tested by the Jaw I am right; it it is to be tested by Jay Cooke’s adver tisements, lam wrong. I hate repudiation or anything like it, but we ought not to ba deterred from doing what i$ right by fear of undeserved epithets. If, under the law as it, stands, the holders of five-twenties c:»n only be paid in'gold, then we are repu diators if we propose to pay otherwise. If, on the other hand, the bondholder can le gally demand only the kind of money he paid, then lie is a repudiator and extortion er to demand money more valuable than lie gave. Truly yours, John Sherman. “ Hon. A. Mann, Jr., Brooklyn Heights.” That puts the repudiation saddle upon the right horse—the horse rode by the bondholders. [Reported Specially for tlie Tel, graph. Minutes of Decisions of the Supreme Court, June Terra. 18G8- Milledgevili.e, June 12,18(58. ii.t!" i.s \\ ilk, S to reinstate a dis- Sherroi*'Phillips, S mi “ ed suit in Harris, J This suit was begun in 1851, and after a de cree for complainant, was continued on appeal from term to term by consent during the recent war, ami afterwards by reason of the fact that the counsel of the plaintiff, who was the sole solicitor of complainant, was Judge from 18(53 until the .Spring of 18(57, during all of which period defendant made no effort or sought to have tln* ease tried. The solicitor of complainant was represent ed l>y oilier counsel at the October term, 18(57, who sought t,o have the ease eoulinuef) for va rious reasons assigned by them. This was re fused and complainant was ordered to proceed to trial or discontinue. We think this was not a proper exercise of tlm large discretion of the Judge, ami with which we very reluctantly interfere. Theeourt below, under the peculiar and equitable cir cumstances attending tlie application to con tinue, should have placed this very old case under a rule for trial at the next term, anil thereby the end of justice would tiave been ad vanced. We inverse liis judgment and direct tj;e pause to lie reinstated. Taylor i vs. > Ex. of Hargrove. Pitman. S « Harris, J. The. judgment below, in favor of defendant in error, is erroneous ip the amount of dam ages allowed. The entire bench concurs in considering them 'as excessive, and on this ground reverses the judgment. As to the right of the Executor to maintain this suit iu trover tor the stock of cattle in Worth, the Judges differ in opinion. Judge Warner thinks that, as the defendant below dis claimed title from the moment of the purchase of the cattle, the plaintiff was entitled to recov er. Judge Walker, having formed no decided opinion on that question, declined to consider it. Judge Marti,; lie id tfiat, no ffargroye gent the purchase sm'iey f° Taylor ;* to help him,3 4 s be had promised—Taylor having married his niece -with direction to buy a stock of cattlo for ids faint'y, and having uniformly disclaim ed title, saying to all who conversed with hiui, they were Taylor’s, and never having had pos session, or exercised any dominion over the fat tie, no title remained in the estate of Har grove which could lie asserted by suit at the instance of the Executor.—Judgment below revc«>.ep_ Alexander Keid, Plaintiff iu Error, vs. Flor ence Reid, by her next friend ; Florence Reid, by her next friend, vs. Alexander Reid. Harris, J. The defendant in error in the first stated case filed her bill, alleging a trust in certain I'V'b.Wf’ n Alexander Reid, created by a re ceipt given Dy to Beni. Renton, her grand father. A demurrer Uas muapoeed and over ruled. Judge Walker and myself affirm the judg ment below on demurrer.

Judge Harris entertains the opinion that there is an ambiguity in the receipt, which must lie interpreted by tbe paper referred to in it, ap.l if that, does uot explain it, that it may be explajuoij undpp the code by parol testimo ny, and that' baying peep expiqinptf by the tes timony of Keaton, w,hb gave tjie property and penned the receipt, it is tjhle duty or the court to give the effect intended by it, as the parol testimony Joes not add to or vary the sub stance .of thg repijpf,- In reference to the hi If pf exceptjopg, found ed upon the refusal of the judge below to take the possession of the property from the custody of Alexander Reid and place it in the hands of a receiver, their being conflicting tes timony below as to his alleged mismanage ment and unfitness for the trust, we will not interfere with the exercise of a discretion which does not seem to have been abused and therefore affirm his judgment.

The lot of land iu controversy was granted “ to Temperance Robinson's illegitimates.” Plaintiff below relied on a copy, grant and deed from Charles Robertson, aud proof that be was the only illegitimate child of Temper ance Robinson.

UK subscriber offers to farm* rs throughout the country THE EGYPTIAN CORN, which, upou trial, was found to ripen, planted even the last of July. It is estimated, from its very pro lific qualities, to yield l&o bushels jfer acre, and weighs, by sealed measure, 66 pounds to the bushel. This Corn wa* produced by some procured direct from Mr. Jonks, our consular agent, directly on his return from Egypt. It needs no different culture from that of other va rieties, ami in the South two crops can he raised in one season on the same ground, li grows in the form of a tree, and 34 ears have grown upon one stock, and will average Irom sto 15. F'or domestic use it is un paralleled. When ground and properly bolted, it is equal in color and fineness to w beaten flour. Asa (oragi. crop, by sowing in drills, or broadcast, tor early feed, there is no kind of corn so well adapted lo milch cows, and none that will yield half tlie value in stalk or corn. it can he successfully grown in any State. 1 give the most satisfactory references 'hat the coin is, in every respect, what 1 represent it to be; mid, further, 1 am tin-only person throughout the country who has this variety of corn.
