That the candidates- for electors should lie pledged in advjtuce- ti vote for par-: ticular persons was not wily not contemplated by the framens of the constitution, but was expressly excluded by their the-,' orv. Thev were to be independent, not influenced by previous committals or engagements, so that when they came together they could, deliberate with perfect freedom for the best interests of the Republic. How cotn.pletely this theory has been overturned, in. practice for more than seventy veins we need not recite.
