Congre-ei convenes net Monday.
Then will begin the second session
of the forty-eighth Congress and nut
the new Congress to which members
have recently been elected, as some
persona erroneously think. 'Ihe
term of the Congressmen-elect begins
ueit Murcli, but their rirst session
does not begin until the first Monday
ill December, 1SS.". unless the Pi em
dont calls an extra session. The com
ing session will not be of much in
terest, nor w it probable that tiny
bill of sp.a-ial importance will be
passed, unless perhaps the famous
"Biuir Hill" becomes a law.
INMU L0UAN.
General Logan, the republican can
didate for Vice-President, seems pe
eulittrlv iini'ortnnuie. He is not omy
disappointed in having U-cii dcteaied
for the Yiee Presidency, but he wiu
also lose his present po.Mlioii of Sen
tor from Illinois. The newly elected
Legislature of that State is demo
Ciaiieaiid will elect a den.ociii! to
Hucceed Senator Lynn whose term
expires
next March. He will no;
only not preside over the Senate as
Vice-President, but will aclii.o.y lose
his seat as a meinbt r of that bmb.
In luldition to tins he has al?o suf
fert-d the disgrace of hail:g his sou
dismissed from West l'oim Aea.le:n
for bud coiidiict.

VOTING FOR PKIISIDKNT.
Many persons think that the next
President and Vice President have
been already elected, lint this is a
mistake, for their election takes place
ou next Wednesday. On that day
the electors, who were chosen at the
recent election, assemble at thecupi-
tol of their respective Suites and
formally Uillot for President, ui
Vice-President, -one of whom, at
least, shall not be an inhabitant of
the same State with themselves."
The Constitution of the United States
directs that the tlectois "shall inline
in their Imllots the pel sou voted for
as President, uud in distinct ballots
the persons voted for as Yice-Piesi-
dent, and thev shall make distinct lists
... . . . , ,
of all persons voted for as i resident,
and all persons voted for as Vice-
Prefideut, and of the number of
otea for each, which lists thev shall
sign and certify, and t.ansuut'sealed
. . , . ,
to the seat of the goveiument oi the
Vuited States, directed to the Presi-
dent vt the Senate." Every elector
ahoseu lit the laie election can vole
, , ,i l ,i
wi he pleases, that is, there is no
1 . , , .
legal restraint upou hun. and he is
not compelled by law to vote for any
paiticular presidential candidate, but
uf course he is expected to vole for
. , , .
the uiHUinee of hia parly, and no in-
tauce has ever yet occurred where
presidential elector betrayed his-
trust: The temptation however is
. e r i i i
toa great for fnul huinaintv, and we
, -
would like to see the electoral col-
lege-, abolished. i
