WrASHiS(iTOS, D. C, Jan. 1, 1877.
Since the time of Jackson do womau has
made and unmade Cabinets, or apparently
exercised controlling influence on great pub
lic questions; but rumor has it that the ex
cellent wile of President Grant was not in
accord with bim in bis earlier aud more rad
ical ideas as to the means of counting in and
inaugurating Hayes, aud that her opinions
hare bad and are having their weight with
the President. The refusal of Mrs.. Hayes
to visit Mrs. Grant at Long Branch last
summer is one cause assigned for the alleged
course of the latter, but, whether petty tpite
or a sound sense of justice coutrols her, it ia
to be hoped that her influcuce will be efTec-
tive. Who would dream of the inaug uration
of Hayes, but for the threatened support of
Grant, Chandler and Cameron ? The truth
is that, under our present centralized despot
ism, President of military habits of thought
and confessedly unfit for the exercise of civil
authority, like Grant, may imagine that he
can perpetuate any theory of Government or
enforce any anti-republican determination of
bis own upon the country. But the civil
war is orcr, the people wish to ruturo to a
constitutional government, and would soon
show him bis mistake if he attempted so fla
grant an outrage as forcing the inauguration,
as President, of a man not clearly elected.
Still, jia grvater power than an aroused and
armed people, or eveu than that of the bal
lot, can cbunge the determination of your
present dictator, it will be well, and Mrs.
Grant will deserve and receive the thanks of
all.
In a late letter, I referred to Senator
BUiue as having held aloof from Radical cau
cuses since bis arrival here. The New York
Sum, commenting on this statement, Buys it
has authority for saying that Senator IL Is
among those who will look complacently
upon an arrangement that will lead to Mr.
Tildeu's iuunguration. That this crafty pol
itician having lost all hope, himself, of the
Presidency, muy thus take his revenge, is
probable but uulikely. The fact that he,
who never failed to have ao opinion and to
express it, in season or out, has suid nothing
on ibis subject is curious. 1 he Sun may be
right, and Senator U. may have remained si
lent for fear of destroying his chances of elec
tion to tlie Senate for six years. 1 bat elec
tion tukes place in a few days. His present
term expires March 4th, as he is merely fill
ing a vacancy by appointment. Secure of a
place (or six years he may speak freely.
Congress commence, business again on the
3d and lively times are expected. The Ban-
ning-Garfield debute in tbe House last week
was the beginning of wiat promises to bring
out an expression of opiuion from every
member.
Tbe committees for counting the electoral
vote will, it is thought, report soon. There
is a daily increasing confidence fu their sug
gesting an acceptable measure, and I need
not say that confidence is greater because of
the substitution of Mr. Couklins for Gen.
Lncan on the Senate Committee.
To-day is given up entirely to " Calls."
Everybody calk The greatest crowd is al
ways at the 1'iesident's. There will be few
er bouses open this year than u.-uul and less
display, owing, probably, to the hard times.
By the way, those bard times are felt more
Severely than ever before. On Saturday,
one of tbe oldest and largest Patent agencies
in the city dismissed neurly all its employ
ees and many others are doing or must soon
do the same. The suffering here is great
but general confidence is felt that better

Preparing the Tlllltla.
The Times' Cincinnati special says that
it is reported on good avthority that Gov.
Williams has declared his intention of put
ting the State militia of Indiana at once in
an tfficien . war footing. Officers are to be
appointed to traverse the State, enlist men
nd muster volunteers into legions. A force
will be organized, armed and put in a con
dition to be called into active service at a
moments warning. Tbe Governor has the
power of appointing all the Geld officers
above Major, and is himself Cammander-in-
tbief. 1 he law ol the Male provios mat
the legion can be called into active tervic
whenever tbe liove rnor declares, by procla
mation, Ibat there is war, invasion, insurrec
tion, or public datiirir, or when any one of
these are tin eatem-d or anticipated. This
measure, cirrinl out promptly, will put jov.
Williams in commaml of a formidable force.
Whether it has any especial significanc
at tbe present jnneture, is a question about
which there m iy be a iliir-.-rence ol opinion.
Peantrltanla Militia to be Organized
The Times' ilarrishure ipeciul has the fol
lowing on the (object of the recent Republican
eaacos. Tbehubjectsdiwassed were Presiden
tial complications and action of the National
Hou- of Representatives ia attempting to
violate secrecy ol merges TbeM sabjects

of the times, entertain gloomy forebodine"
for the immediate lutore, 1 bey thiok the

Ibat condition of leeling in your city and

Tun ritKswKNCY. We indorse
heartily the following: extract from
the Cincinnati Enquirer:
"There is not an honest man in this
broad land to day who does not
know that tho people of the United
States have chosen Samuel J. Tilden
to tho Presidency. States that have
cast their votes for him, have been
denied him by illegal partisan boards
organized to cheat ami swindle, he
cause certain States of tho South were
once in rebellion tho leaders of the
republican party assttmo that they
have no rights, and that inabilities
can be put upon them with impunity,
wlucn would drive other states into
open revolt. L'onitmttt'es ot ton-
cress, headed by Democrats, .have
been organized aud sent into the three
disputed Sonthcrn Slates to ascertain
facts. They will investigate and re
port in a week or two. If their ro-
port shall be conclusive as to the
poiut in issue if they declaro that
Atr. Tilden has honestly carried ci
ther ot tho States in dispute wo nrc
in favor of tho ituiuutatiou ot Mr.
Tilden at any and all hazards. We
want tho evidence to go to tho peo
ple. After that we want our Repre
sentatives in Congress and tho leaders
of the party to pledge themselves to
see justice done. Tho people will re
spond when they know they are
right. Tho rights of men are as dear
now as they were in tho days of King
John, and republican institutions aro
worth just as much now as when our
fathers battled from Lexington to
Vorktown."
Epitomized and Cuuceulrateda
The Chicago Timrs of December
22.1, 1 Iiuh condenses the situation:
1. A urge iimjont y ol the Ameri
can people mt only "believe hut
have an abi-olutc conviction that Mr.
Tilden is legally elected.
a. lhey have no occasion to pro-
poso or entertain any proposal ot
compromise.
8. Tho individual called tho Presi
dent of the Senate will not count the
votes and decide upon tho certificates
submitted.
4. Samuel J. Tilden will bo Presi
dent of the United States in virtue of
the Constitution aud by authority ot
the will of tho supremo people, law-
lully ascertained and determined.
5. Any forcible resistance to the
Government of which Mr. Tilden will
bo the Executive, whether made by
Mr. Itutherl'ord JJ. Hayes, old Hen
Wade, John Sherman, the gory Zack
Chandler, the terrifying Don Camer
on, or any other member of tho trea
sonable conspiracy to Mexicanizo the
Government, will result in tho exter
mination of tho treasonable scoun
drels so quickly that no more of the
breed will bo ambitious to succeed
them as plotters of revolution.
This idiotic bluster of the conspira
tors about imprisoning people in For
tress Monroe who don't approve of
revolution by aUeturmng Jioard has
gone about far enough. There are
two sides to every question. The
Mexican conspirators have only one
sido. They will do well to remem
ber that a majority ol tho American
people are on the other sido.
Tho Timef Washington spcoial
says: Tho electoral committees ot
the Senate and House had a long
meeting this afternoon, being in ses
sion till 5:'M o'clock. Another mnet-
ini? will bo held to morrow. The
pi oposition agreed on by the Senate
committee is under consideration.
The bill, or formal draft df the prop
osition, has been very carefully kept
secret, but the general and most im
portant outlines aro known. It pro
vides thnt the Senato shall, on the
day of the counting of the vote, meet
with the House in tho hall ol the lai
ter bodv. and tho V ice l resident
t i in ia
shall open all the certificates, nnd tel
tors appointed for the purpose snail,
as usual, read the rcord and sum up
tbe votes, but there are to be count
ed, in the first place, only returns to
which no objection is made, w Here
there b one return only from a State,
ad that is objected to, the two Houses
will determine whether it shall he
counted, but the concurrence ot both
hauses will be required to reject
any vole; where two returns are made
tram one Slate, the dispute is to be
referred to a commission or tribunal
comnosed of nine members of the
House and Senate and tho four jus
tices of the supreme court longest in
service. The niue members ot the
House and Senate are to be selected
by the appointment ol five Senators
and five liciireseotatives and then
droppin j one of the ten by drawing
lota There rniirht thus be on the
Anmmifution five Senators and four
members of the House, or five mefti
bers and four Senators. The justices
who would become members of the
commission by the terms of the prop
osition would by I litlorJ, owayne
Miller and Davis. This commission
ir l.o authorized to determine a
questions in dispute, and their decis
ion to be final. The dieputed totes
having been counted ia the presence
ot the IIouso in aooorJnnce with tho
t decision of llio commission, nnd the
wholo number ot electoral votes hnv
ing been summed -up by tho tellers,
tho president of tho Senato announces
tho result in the usual form which
will determine who is to be Presi
dent of tho United States.
All Thai Is A iiked of Hie l iurpor.
.Tho Sun says that all we ask Is that the
President fairly elected shall bo inaugurated,
not a man who gets bis sole title to the pluce
from partisan returning boards composed of
men who bad a porsonnl interest iu juggling
the votes, and who had no scruples about
doing it, (Sivo us the President the people
chose, not the man Louisiana Wells and
Vice President Ferry choose. They bad
their two votes at the election, and they will
not be allowed to name a President agulust
the decision of the people.
The Whole Ca.e.
Tba peculiarity of Senator Thurman's rea
soning is its perspicuity aud pointeduoss, re
marks tho Clcavvland Plain Dealer. For
instance, how cleanly he hits the nail on the
head when ho says, speaking of tho Lo uisi-
ana case : "Unco the only question about
an election w is, 'Who has a majority of the
voles'.'' Th.i question now is, 'Who has a
imynrity ol tho men who count the votes?' "

Let the cnlmer and stronger men of tho
Republican party remember these lessons
of the past, counsels tbe New York Herald.

Diskaskd Mind, That peculiar form
of insanity termed kleptomania,which
makes itsult known by potty pilfer
ing, has become a sort ot joka nd
a by-word ; but, although it is per
haps difficult to rocogni.e it as a plea
in criminal cases, it undoubtedly ex-
lots. -A-Icuur-uanloi, fui " luotanou,
having been suspected ot stealing let
ters, his house was searched, and
thousands ot letters, many of thorn
two or three years old. wore hidden
away. When a man or womnn of
known wealth is discovered commit
ting theso petty thotts, whoro there
can uo no reason tor me act, it is
clearly an evidence of an unsound
mind. A case is related which bears
upon tins point exactly, ana wmcii
. . . .i 111
proves that inlhistormof insanity a
very different treatment is dealt out
to the rich in comparison to that suf
fered by the poor. A lady ot good
lamily and of allluent circumstances,
abstracted a bracelet from a jo welter's
store at which she and her lami'y had
tradod tor years. On tho tradesman s
mentioning the affair to tho lady's
uuband the matter was immediately
investigated, and this suspicion of the
tradesman proved to be correct. This
. . 1 -!
uuiinppy epiHouo suggested on inves
tigation, and, to the astonishment of
her husband and all the members of
tlieamiy,aniimbcrof diamond rings,
valuab'e bracelets, gold chains, etc.,
were found iu her possession, ot which
nu ccoin'. could be given. This lady
ultimately went completely out of her
mind. We may Btaie that thcro aro
several membeis of wealthy families
who oio known to bo laboring under
this form ot mental disease, and
whoso failings are so well known to
the tradesmon with whom they are
allowed to take things, as they tnncy,
unobserved; but an account of them
being immediately sent to tho family,
they aro either returned or paid for.
Such persons, though they show uo
other sign ot madness, aro doubtless
tainted with that terrible brain dis
order.

Up Salt lv f - -The origin of the
expression ''Up "c 1 '"or," as applied
to n defeated politiuu: . arty, was as
follows: Davy Crockott,. the famous
Kentucky Congrcssman.while a W""
candidate, was challenged by " :.
Democratic opponent to moot lam on
tho stump in joint discussion. Crockett
aocoptod, and tho day and place were
fixed; but Crockett did not appear,
and tho people, thinking him afraid to
do ao, rallied for his opponent and
Qluotcdhira, It afterwards turned
out that Crockett, who bad started
for tho plaoo in a canoo propel lod by
a noro, was l inded in the forest at
iL1mmmI wntora of Suit lliver -by-Ills '
treacherous guide, who then swiftly
paddled off (low n tho stream. Crock

his chance of election, llenco the

A Bio Pmjm Pudbinq. On June 8th,
1819, at Paignton fair, near Exeter,
England, the ancient custom of draw
ing through tho town a plum pudding
ol an immcuso sizo, and nllerwards
distributing it to the populuco, was
revived. The ingrediouts which com
posed this enormous pudding wero
400 pounds of flour, 170 pounds of
beef suet, 140 pounds rusins and 210
eggs. It was kept constantly boiling
in a brewer's copper from Saturday
morning till Tuesday, whon it was)
placed on a car, decoratod with rib
