The Man U Const the Electoral Vote. It wouldn't be any grrat disappoint meat to the republicans generally TUden should be Installed president, but there can be no doubt but the office' holders would be very much "put out." Mr. J5. T. Doty, of Mt. Union Ps sent to each poor family in that town a five dollar bill as s Xmas gift. We came pretty near doing the same thing here, lint djdo't have the money.

It has been ssggeeted; that, in view of the met that the people of North Carolina have so recently and so em piratically said that, la their opinion, the number of Judges of ths superior court should ba reduced to nine, it would i as welt fbr Ooveroor Vsoce not is fill tbe vacsaoy caused by the resignation of Judge Watts; to' tht end that the promised system of economy be at once initialed This suggestion rather com mends itself to . If nine judges can do the work of tbe courts la 1870 it seems that eleven ought to do it in 1877. mere are owever other ques tions ; Involved which may render it impracticable to leave the judge ship vacant, but we call the atten tion of tbe legislative committee to re district tht state to this suggestion and remind them that If they act on the same they must do so at once, as the first court which the successor of Judge Watts, should one be sppointed ruuftt hold, be gins on tbe (thof next month and wo beg leave to suggest to Governor Vance that lifl delay filling Uie vacancy to the latsat practicable moment in order that the legislative committee may have an opportunity (o act in the premises. The Superior Court Clerk or Craves His Accounting for Flues to the . ' State Treasarer.

Should congress adopt, and the presU dent approve the measure proposed, tbe cemmissieu is tt be appointed on Tues day precediug tbe first Thursday In February, on which latter day the count of the vote is to proceed in joint sessiou of the two houses of congress. Tbe jolot report of the oommitlee is signed by Senators Edmunds, Freling- huyeeu, aud Coukling, republicans, Thurtnan, Bayard and Ransom, demo crats, of tbe senate committee, and by Representatives Payne, H union, Hewitt, and Springer, democrats, and McCrnry, Hoar and Wiliard, republicaua, of ths house committee. One member of the senate committee,, Mr. Morton, refused tt sign ths report There are no abler men in the seuate than EUmtin da, FrsUnglmysen, 3nk ling, Thnrmatf, Bayard and Ransom, representing equity the two parties, and wt question if the senate of the United Slates ever' contsined at one time six abler men the or these. Ed monds, Conkling ard Thnrman have long been recognized as the three first lawyers in the senate. Tbe house com mittee is compoeed of men all distin guished for great ability, Messrs. Hoar and Wiliard atanding at the very head of the New England delegation in con gress. We are disposed to accept the work of aoob meo as these. While the plan Jhy have proposed has met with oDDoaition and criticism at the handa of some of the blest men snd journals of both parties, we do not propose to throw any obstacle of caviling opinion in( tbe way of a settlement of tbe presidential question. Wt shall not therefore study tike plan proposed merely to fiud fanlt with it Wherein it is wrong or detective, let the members of both heuses of congress dis cover end remedy it ' The senators and representatives com posing the committees appear to have left parties out of the question, and to have successfully risen above the plant of tht partisan. They seem to have ap proached a grave constitutional matter and to have met and disposed ofitss patriots and statesmen. At the conclu sion of thoir labors they all shook hands in a congratulatory spirit, and members of each party expressed thoir mutual ad miration and respect for each other in the conduct of the whole afiair. These things indicate that our natioual legialv tore are gotting closer to the line of par triotio duty ss the bans of partisan bias art loosened. . We believe this presidential complica tion baa been the , means of creating a healthier public sentiment in Congress snd throughout the etun try than has ex isted in the United SUtes for more tusa a qaarter of a oeutury, and ia this con nection ws again ull attention to the fact that while the jayhawkera snd bush wackere bsve bees Hodging in and out, slaying publio sentiment here, and de stroying tht tranquility of the pnblie nund there, the sentinel baa maintained throughout that the great question awaiting the Usciaion of Congress would receive s aolobon satisfactory to the great Dody of conasrvativo fair minded The senate mat at 10:30 a. m., Idea- taoans Oovernor Jarvis in tht chair.
