SEN’I:IMENTS OF A SOUND STATESMAN. Senator Bayard, of Delaware, was interviewed by a World reporter with reference to the political situafion in Louisiana. -In Teply to a - question whether the democratic party should take any action as mattéxts‘now stand, she .able Sentaor from Dilawaie ‘expressed himself as follows: P © I hate the very name of party in connection with twch an eme-gen-cy as now apparently confronts the American people. . Whether successful or noft, I should ask or seek nothing to-day {rom any man, either as a ‘Democrat or-a. Republican, but simply try “to_controel him by a sénse of his duty :as a‘citizen to thé Constitution and laws of his country. I have given my adhesion to the democratic party because I believe it to be the party of law aud order, and I believe to-day that its success'is firmly intrenchedin both, and that it gnly needs that itd candidates and its members should stand Tby the law ds it is written, in letter and in spirit, in order ta have the full consummation of its victory in theresnlts of the Presidential election. of Tuesday last. Therefore it is that I strenuously deprecate any resort, ‘no matter -how well Intentioned, o irregular methods fior controlling leB ; . o § gal results. To apply these remarks to the case'in point. =~ Whether in dealing with T.ouisianta, South Carolina or Florida,” what I mean to say is this:» The elections in these States have been held; ‘the votes have been cast, the ballots are, or ought to be, in existence, ‘and they disclose, or did _disclose, a majority on one side or the other, - Which way these majorities, or any of them, are, is a. question of fact; which is or ought to be capable “of distinet and positive proof if the laws have not been violated. Itis by that facy thiat (e American peopie must stand and not- by any false and counterfeit presentment of that faet, whetlier prepared by the fraud of an oflicial hand or not. Never was there an oecasion more gravely calling for an utter absence of anything like personal irritation or party heat; but, at the same time, never was there an occasion demanding more deliberate and grave determination to insist upon the very truth and right of this question, under the authority of the law and of the law alone; Our path will then be plainly marked out for us, and we can.and will tread it with an unfaltering step. — ) S

Counting the Electoral Votes

- +The electoral votes must be counted under the provisions of the twelfth amendment to the constitution of the United States, which readsas follows: “The electors shall meet.in their respective States and vote by ballot for President and Vice-President, one of whom, at least, shall not be an inhabitant of the same State with themselves; they shall name ia their ballots the person voted for as President, and in distinct ballots the person voted for as Viee-President; and they shall make distinet lists of all persons voted for as President, and of all persons voted.for as Vice-President; and of the number of votes for each, wlni_ch, lists they shall sign and certify and transmit, sealed, to the seat of government of the United Stites, directed to the President of the. Senate. The President’ of the Senate shall, in the presence of the Senate and House of Representatives, open all the certificates, dnd the votes shall then be counted. . The " person having the: greatest- number of votes.for President shall be the President, if such number be a majority of the whole number of electors appointed; and if no person have such a majority, then from the persons having the highest numbers, not exceeding three, on the list of those: voted for as President, the House of Representatives shall choose. immediately by ballot the President.” e

- The only dispute is as to whether or not the 22d joint rule is in force. It provides that when thie vote is count‘ed, if objection is made to the reception of the vote of any State the ‘Senate and House shall vote separately on the objection, and -the vote of ,Baid State can only be received by the E.con‘current vote of both Houses. Under this rule, the Indianapolis Herald claims, either House could exclude the vote of a State. The Republicans claim that this-rule is no longer in! force, because the Senate refused to readopt it last winter, while the Democrats. claim ‘it is still in force, and that it would require the concurrent action of both IHouses to abrogate it. If this rule is still in force, then the. Democracy, having control of the House of Representatives, have the power to throw out the vote of Louisiana, or any other State, ‘O}I pretense of fraud, and thus throw the, election into the House of Representatives.,

- THE VOTE in South Carolina is counted by a Board of- Managers in each precinct, then by the county canvassers, and then by the State canvassers. The first two are composed. of one Democrat to two Republicans. There'is no Democrat on the State canvassing.board. The report of the managers in every county of the State is in, and shows a majority for Gov-

THE RESULT.

Though unable to inform our readers, this week, who of the two leading candidates for the Presidency is to be counted in, we are enabled to ‘announce, on the strength of accurate information, that Samuel J. Tilden has carried a sufficient number of States toj give him 196 electoral votes. Ot the three doubtful Southern-States he has unquestionably carried. Loufsiana and Florida, while in South Carolina the lofficial count will be required in order to determine the exact result. Wade* Hampton’s majority for Governor is now semi-officially reported at 1,118, but inasmuch as he ran considerably ahead of the general ticket, the majority for either Hayes or Tilden is' not likely to be over a few hundred votes. Tilden’s majority in Louisiana is 7,859; in Florida the N. Y. Herald's latest dispatches place Tilden’s majority (all the counties being heard from) at someflning over 500—Drew, the Democratic candidate for Governor, having over 900

majority. AT : By invitation of llon, Abram S. Hewitt, chairman of the national democratic committee, about twentyfive distinguished demoeratic politiciaus and statesmen have gone to New Orleans in the interest of fair dealing and sn honest count by the board of returns. ’l‘hese'gmxtlemen have been using their best eftorts to accomplish these. vesults, but according to latest information ‘the prospect is not very promising. Delegations have also repaired to Florida and South Carolina for a like purpose. . e President Grant has also sent a number of republican politicians to these States, to look after the éanvassing of the returns, &ec. AT - In the earnest hope that this troublesome matter may be saiisfadori]y adjusted in.the mext few days, we forbear comments on the situation. = -

SUNDAY'S NEWS.

+ The political situation this morn: ing can best be described as ufich_:mged.

Though in South Carolina and Florida the latest democratic estimates are a trifle lower than they were: yesterfiay, neither State is conceded to the ,Republicans, and the indications, confirmed by the special despatches sent from Chamberlain and rhen'ofi that stamp, are infallibly in favor of the democratic national and local cickets. R e

On Louisiana at present the eyes of the whole nation are fixed. The democratic elaims of the State Dy a majority -varying from 6,000 to 12,000 have not for a moment been abated, and so far as we can judge, are made with pertect reason. Many prominent democratic statesmen are on their way. to New Orleans to inspect the machinery of the counting board, as also are not a few Republicans, more to be esteemed and -depended -upon than the Commissioners so gratuitously Thursday night. < The feeling everywhere is, if quiet, most intense. . - . e

As regards the National Legislature, late returns insure the election of a republican successor (to Senator Logan, republican,) of Illinois. If the democratic claim of a Senator in South Carolina is sustained, the republican majority in the Senate will be 2; otherwise it will be 4. In the House the democratic majority cannot hbe less than 16, and may be 20. ° 5

MONDAY’S NEWS.

Though there is yet intense feeling over the election of last weekand the possibility of trouble at the South if the attempt is: made to reverse the re: sult certainly arrived at in two of the three closely-fought States, and probably reached in the third; nevertheless, t;-h‘ére is less noisy demonstration than marked Thursday and Friday. In Louisiana Tilden’s majority from complete returns -is placed at 7,859, — Many prominent men of both parties are on their way to New Orleans,

~ In Florida the Democrats have carried the State by from 1,200 to 1,600 without any doubt, Tilden running some 300 behind the State ticket, but having a safe majority, Both Congressmen and the Legislature are Democratic. The Republicans are ‘making extensive preparations fqr'ghe customary frauds in counting, 7 IniSouth Carelina there is no .doubt of Hampton’s majority being at least 1,200 ‘or 1,500, In the-first counties reported Tilden rurfs considerably behind Hampton, and therefore his success is doubtful, to say the least. Governor Chamberlain eclaims the State by 2,000, The vote will be counted to-day. S

% . Centennial Correspondence. ! The Last Day—Pen Pictures of Some _ of the Distinguished Visitors—The End. o From Our<Own Correspondent. { PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 11, 1776. The very last minute has come and i gone. The Centennial International { Exhibition of 1876 is a thing of the 5 past. -It is over; and. the youngest tnziti«m on the face'of the globe has i shown her sisters of the whole world, { that the Republic, “a government of i tyhe'pgople. for the peéple, by the péople,” is’a success. | The intellectual ‘feast, to which ‘we invited the entire! civiljized '\,vor}d, anQ'fin which tl;e"exxtire civilized world took patrt, wasone ! which might put to the blush any 4 | thing of thej kind which had’ been previously attempted. And the grand--1 est, most gloricus thing to'the American heart, was the great practical il- ' lustration of equality, “without regard ] to rg,cho]or or previous condition of | servitude,” which the Exhibition afi ford&\; ilere we see a poor laborer, | judging from his appear:ance; who has, ‘ succeeded in obtaining a holiday from his employérs for the purpose of visiting the Exposition. Beyond we find one of the old “Knickerbockers,” the oidest and bluest-blooded (if the exl pression is allowable) inhabitant of | the-country. There is an ordinary- | looking man, who, in company with a | few friends, is gi'eatly interdsted in | the exhibits. H Jq;aid his fifty cents 1 to come in, just asid the coloréd lady ‘and gentleman who .preceded him, } and wants te get the worth of his | money, even if he is the President of | the United States. Like any ordinary | citizen, of any ordinary station, does I the nation’s chief'magistrate enter and §leuve the grounds. . * | o | Passing further 01, we-find a genlal ‘countenance belonging to an elderly gentleman. A small man with full, iron-gray beard, a broad-brimmied, slouch /hat; and {very ordinary dress. f Yes, that is Dom Pedro, Emperor, of 'ijzwli]fl “Now you have a man vvl}bm ‘you can worship and admire and lionize if you wish,” is what you think, ain’t it? But there is where you are l‘ mistaken. Dom Pedro is as ordinary |in character as in appearance. A man [_of sterling good gense, he thinks that - becausein the natural course of events he happened to be born to an Empire, he should make it his duty to attend to the wants and the welfare of his | subjects.. | By the way, to Dom Pedro belongs credit for one of the best centennial jokes. While looking at the workings of the Corliss engine he was told the number of revolutions made by the fly wheel per minute, to which ‘he replied: “That beats our South American Republic.” T ~ Still proceeding down the centre aisle .of the main building, we pass Mr. John Wailter,!M.- P., of London, England; the proprietor of the greatest newspaper in the world. Where | English is spoken, the London 7'imes ig read. Mr, Walter while ‘here was the guest of George W. Childs, Esq., of the Public) Ledger. Passing on ‘again there is pointed out to us the Earl Dufferin, who is also “doing” th‘e{' -Exhibition., But to attempt to give an account of the number of distinguished individuals who have been here vduringfiifi the past six months would require more space than we think THE BANNER could well spare for us. Slif» fice it to say that Philadelphia has entertained visitors innumerable, Imperial, plebeian, royal and patrician. In six months ‘there passed through the turnstiles at the Centennial Exhi-. bition 8,004,214 paying visitors.. The eash receipts from entrance fees alone amoqnt_e(fi to $3,674,884.74. - The pl(’f)sirig ‘cérem)oiiies, yesterday, were impressive, though short. After the singing of a chorus by the centennial choir, under the supervision of Theodore Thomas, the President of the United States, Ulysses S. Graut, stopped the Corliss engine and pro‘nounced the, World’s Fair of 1876, at ‘Philadelphia; at an end. May we all live to see anothier, =4 = Now, reader of TaE BANNER, allow | us a few words of a personal character. In the few short months during which we haye been-corresponding ‘with you, we have endeavored to place before thuse of you who could not see | the Exhibition some idea of its wonders. If we have succeeded in inter- | esting you in “our show,” and if you have taken the same pleasure in reading our humble efforts that we have | felt in writing, then we'shall consider ourself amply. repaid. - And now, us to do, allow us to bid you farewell, ‘alldressing so&in% e, should | %e&m o might interest you by so | doing.

.. b e EWAWARA Getting Wild Over the Great Strug- . : o ) To the Editor of The 4Namo'nal.‘ ,f!anner: s * Our usually quiet town was thrown into great commotion on Fflduy, Nov. 10, the_third day ‘after the election, when the whole country was olnv-tfip-toe in regard to the result of the election. Having business about the town of Wawaka, I noticed a crowd of men and boys about/the station yard, yelling like Indians, and throwing up. _t]xeir hats and cabs, so that for a while the air wap fairly darkened, and a. moment later a shower 5_01" hats and caps, from the fashionable cylindrical “stove pipe” (I:"Q\vn‘toj the chapeau and the glazed cap of the laboring man, was flying througlgx” the air, and the yard was literally' covered with theseé articles of raiment. Up flew the stars and stripes on the liberty pole. Then I began to make inquiries to find out what this fufss"was all about, and was. told that the telegraph operator at the station caught a telegram that Hayes was elected President. By the way, this operator is a yery promising youth. This enterprising disciple of Morse held his ear to the machine, and the tick spoke, “Tilden, Tilden, Tilden,”, ‘ete., but t 6 him, having his ears high up on his head, the sound struck him: like “Hayes, H— Hayes.” ‘.’And this was the cause of the excitement. On they went, yelling and Thurrahing at the top of their voices, in search of & suitable place to erect a wood-pile to make a bonfire in the evening. They" went and worked with'a will that was really astonishing; young men that ‘had not'done a day’s work in the last. three months “worked and sweat like mniggers at an election.” G. W.'s mill/yard oxen were pressed into service to haul slabs, poles, boxes and tar-

barrels, until they had a lvery large pile; then they rested from their labor until evening. ~Then the jubilee was resumed by the shooting of anvils and firing of the stake. And what the disinit,e’reste_d spectator could see there, I will now relate: In thé center of. the pile stoad a J ac'.k_son‘izé.l; hickory pole, to which was att;ach'_ed a figure that resembled a muslin flag upon- a human form. Some thought it looked like Tilden, but others were equally positive in; their assertions that the figure bore a striking resemblance to Gov. Hayes. After the fire was fairly started, this cotton paddy began to wince and twist. For awhile he stood it manfully, like Huss at the stake, and some, with very. -acute ears, declare-they heard a sound of words such as the celebrated martyr is said to have spoken: “0, san¢ta simplicitas!” These were his last, words. Then he took his flight ‘hedvenward. But he did not stay long, as it appears Saint Peter was. ‘atv'his post, and seeing this chap, in such a sore plight, spoke to him as follows: “We have no use for such 'a chap here; with such a cloudy, smoked and half burnt up shirt ak you have got on; you cannot enter here; they who enter here must. be clean,” Saint Peter then inforined his vis‘tor that if he shonld ever make his appearance again in such a filthy and tattered condition, ! he (Saint Peter) would have him es-| corted to a very warm clim'"ate,-ar'}d{‘ advised him to go back, and cleanse himsele o 0 ' -

The last that was seen of the singed martyr of that ’m;emora_ble occasion, he had aligh't.ediilji Uncle Isaac’s pos tato patch, and whether he remained there or went with the Crusaders to the Holy Land, is unknown to' ' e ' ROGAN.

DEATHOF A PIONEER.—Last week's Waterloo Press says: “John Matson. died on Friday last, the 3d inst.; ‘uged 70 years, 8 months and 8 days. He settled on the farn upon which he resided at the time of his death, four miles north-east of Waterloo,inFranklip, in the year 1836. He was, therefore, among the earliest pioneers of ' the county. The county was an unbroken wilderness, containing no villages, and. no cbuntg 'grgfinization, independent of Lagrange. Mr. Matson lived to see fine farmg opened up, substantial ‘farm. buildings erected, vil- ’_ lages spring up, and railroads traverse “almost every township of the county. It does riot seem possible that as ma-' _ny changes can take place in the next forty years, yet who can tell? lln the death of Mr. Matson we are again reminded how few of the men are left who acted as pioneers in settling this portion of the State. The funeral services were held in the Reformed Church last Sabbath, a large assembly paying their respects to the memory | of the deceased.” = g ~ The committee appointed by the State Board of Agriculture to negotiate a tdmporary loan to pay the premiums”awarded at the last Fair and Exposition, has as yet failed to effect any, and it is possible the exhibitors will have to wait until the msa%urfimfigor the board in Janu: ary to get their orders cashed.
