What conies after is not vet known, or whether the niinisteis ari? to l?e preached alunit at all. It would ?(id to tlie inteiest of Mr. Till ion**?'s discourses if he would let us know on what, system lie pro? ceeds ? whether he places the newspaper writers tiist, liecause they arc most in need of it, or lit'causc, ?is some contend, their many virtues and general Munich ssness of walk und life entitle them to this distinction. Also which mode of classification we are to inter from the fact that the eblgyiBMl have not yet been assigned a place. Meanwhile every one ts ready to l?e norry for the lawycts. It ii their turn next week. There is to ba no (lenient of safety wanting in the East River Bridge. The piihlic will heartily ?porove the extreme care that is used in select in. and is to he used in tc.-tin?, the inetul of the wires. The makers of BCBWBMC steel will hardly concede that it is as defect? ive as Mr. Hewitt alhgc-*.; hut if there isa BTBVC doubt uhotit it and no douht altont ci il? e?ble steel, the dili'creiice of co-t between the two should not be taken into consideiation. The Bessemer process is of rccuut invention and rapid growth; very great improvemeut?' linve been made in it; bul there is slill a possi? bility that its product? eafMMH lie relied upon as fully as those of (he older me!hods. The manufacture of criniblo* steel has the advan? tage of dealing with small atassea, each of which can be separately tested. Whether the tests for the wires shall Ik? made mure slrin Kont, or whether the higher erra de of steel slial'. be selected, should be determined simply upon the question which course, would result in Banking tlie safest bridge. All the light that intelligent discussion tan ihed upon the Presidential (piestion is wcl come. Two communications printed elsewhere set forth clearly some intonating views. Per? haps tlie greateBt interest will attach to the quotations made by our regolai Washington eonespondent from Mr. Madison's letters, when the closely contested election of 1 MOO ?Horded a situation not unlike the present. His (min? ions of the powers and duties of the EfottM of P?pies?'iitatives Blight be studied to great advantage by present num? bers of that body. The lion. John 1>. Defrees con!) ?bates* BB argument in favor of the light of the President of the Semite not only to (omit the votes but to decide which Bh?U be Opened and which shall not. In this Mr. lb-frees rests his opi,non that Congress has no right to question a it turn fiom the proper authorities of I Stale on the well known rule that the Constitution shall he strictly construed "in all cases where ihe right, of States may ''be drawn in question, or aie involved."' It is bircly possible that the Ren! leinen of the Senate who .?re adhering to the vote, of last session to n*vive the franking privilege, in spite of the refusal of the. House to concur, think tliis is a (.rood time <<> Blip throng- a Job of tliis kind. They never made a biggei blunder. The mass of the people have never had two opinion, about the tV_u_k.Bg privi? lege, or about the men who have persistently defended it. Their opinion is not likely to un? dergo any change, now that more than three years have gone by isince the privilege ceased toi..*, and they lind that the average cili/cn is .ju??t about as well informed a* he was when cart-loads of CfMigreatdona] wisdom on the currency, commerce, taxation, and the like were weighing down the mails. 'Tlit-.ii opinion is not any more likely to change because the attention of the country is concen? trated on a more important matter. Congress is watched nowadays M it has not been watched in a long while before. In this broad glare of publicity nothing remains unseen, and the beet way for Congress te keep out of trouble is not to do i Lu'?s that should be left undone. Sime ihis (?dioiis and extravagant privilege was swept away, if never before, the people have found out ju-t bow useless and absurd it was, and haie learned to estimate hi its real worth all this cam of the Honorables about "dis " seminating information'' derived from fort? night courses in tin ?nee, ot twisted out of ihape by some of the cH.ol'r-d brains that '?"*t into Congress. The Senate may as well re? cede, gracefully if ii ran; but promptly any? how, for recede it must. THE CONSTITUTION ASH HIE ELECTION, Unquestionably the ("ranters of the Constitu? tion Bevor contemplated a situation such :?-? now exists. That does not matter. Constitu? tions are not intended te anticipate particular iiiii'1/.-eiiiies, but to establish law which li*_ suffice in every situai ion. There arc the pi n visions, and they an* our supreme law. Our business is to obey them. Whether they were or wen* not framed in expectation of such application as may now be made is not of the slightes, consequence. It is our duly d> ? x aaiinc them with can, to ascertain wherein they spply to our position, to construe them faithfully and honestly, and then to obey them. It is Quite obvions, for example, thai the iiaiii is of the Constitution did no! contem? plate the contingency that iv.o conflicting pa? pers, purporting to be the certificates of electoral votes, might 1?, forwarded rrom a stab. There is bo provision in Ihe Constitu? tion which any ni.iu can holiestly claim was intended i<> mee! such a case, but, eevertbe less, there is a provision which docs m; el that ca c Tor it U provided thai the President of the Benate shall open "all (he eel lilicales," and if he performs that duty he inns! of BO* Density judge what are the certificates of legal Votes and what are mere worthless I ? i t s of paper. There can be no precedents for the exercise nf sucha power, because the occasion now arises for the iirst time. All precedents of exercise by Congress of a power to decide whether w Stale was in the I ilion are inap? plicable. In ti'? ('oii-titiiiion ii ii provided thai ?i Slat?- can be admitted to the Union only by attrmative actioB of both bouses ?of Congress, and, therefore, if it be Questioned whether a Stale bus been admitted, or is in r.iu-li relations to the Union as to be en til id to vote at all, that question would naturally fO te ilu' two bouaca for decision. Moreover, in application to a ijues tioli (?f thai Character, the Twenty-second Jtain! Hule was not wholly unreasonable. Km if either house denle, thai ?> State has been ml milled, or, aller iclx-llion, bas Ixen restored to it ? relations, there is some reason m ihe claim that the voles of BtatBS whose lelatiOM aro not doubt? ?1 tihoul ' not be ucutiali_.il by the votes of States whose ri^'lit lo vote is denied. Hut these procedt -ids bete m> ftppli eati'ui to thfl pn-setit ease. The quet-tion now is not ?fhethet ? Stat?* is entitle?! to vt)tc, but " how have eertoia State? ?rotedf* For that ?piestioii, the Constitution provides an answer ?the certificates. NowluM ?loes it gifi au? thority Ui either house of Congress, 01 to both hoonea, or to th?' I'n'sidcnt of the. Senate, or lo the Supreme Court, l??r i toging to ?ount n vole which the pCOperlj aiitheiilicii?t4??l cetlill cute records. As for the power to detenaiaa which are the properly nuth? nticated eeitifi cates, lb? re ?s not a word in the Constitution tu authorize its excrciso by any other p?*isoii than by the President of the Si-nat?-, wluw? duty it is to open all the cei lifu'atcs, und to open as proper certificates* mrthini; ?*lse. Agate, the Constitution docs n??t in terms provide for any other vacancy in the? J'nsidcn tial oilice excentiiiK by removal, death, r?*sii_ mihoii or inability. But (he Constitution must bg so const rued as to preserve tin- (?ovcrunicut which it was designed to ?-stablish, and if, from any other cause than those originally an th'ip.itt-d, the Presidency becoin?'S vacant, wo must obey the ji!?vi-.ioiis which do exist. If both tin- Presidency ami Vicc-Pi?si?.?*ncy be? come vacant, it is declared that the CoBgreag may piovhle, and the Congress has provid?'?l for tint eeeoideclaring what otfieer shall "act "as President until the disability be n-inov??* "??ia President shall be elect??!."' NN It"?) the rebellion begaBi there wire profouinl ewwtitu? tioual lawyers who labored long to WIOC- the (?oveinim-iit on their quibbles. With perfect J natter, the -aging eon-ion sens?* of the aattoa h?*l?l that the Con-lilutioii was or?laiu?'?l to es? tablish and maintain the Union, not. to destroy it, and that no conslruction which in Miivt-d the strangling <>f the GoveraMeat by the very iiislruuu-ut ?irdaine?! f??r its maint?? naaee ooald be reaaooable. If we apply th? s.ini?- broad anil iiu.ii'cgnable rule to all the ?luestions arising in the pgeeoat e?iaergeae]r, we .hall rid oaraelgea of a great nnaiher of eoa slitulioiiil quibbles. The- object of the Con si it ul ion was t?) enable the people to ?rlect a President, not to prevent an ?lcitntii, and cause ?I decease ?)! the lio\'?ii.i.ient. HOW SOT TO CHoosl. A PBESIDEVT. Whatever arrumen I the Senal?- may make, we hope that it will not ggVM to the choosing of a President by lot. 8? lf-govcrnmcnt by the dice box, eelf-gOTI-minent by pulling . tiaws or tlip ping |)< unies, would be a contemptible and odious farce. If we are not ..!?1?' lo elect a chief Mag-g-iate,or to detenaiae whether one has been elected, in any better inethoil tli:)ii by toering i'oppers, we had better hire some debilitated European family to coate over and giro us the Messing of bereditarj mon nicJiy. Vet it is gravely pfopoead at Washington to submit the questions at issue in the ]'rc?*!ilenlial coate t, not to arguaient, but to the decision <>f n tribunal the coiitiol of which shall depend upon chance. It in proposed to foi m a tribunal composed <?f four Judgeg of the Suprem? ?Court, who ?ire mppoeed to be equalljdivided in OpiaioO, live Senalors to be ?-hosen, of i.iiii-.-e, by the uiajority in the Senate, ami live !!? pit-sentatives, to be i-h??< n'by the ma.joiity in the House, and from the tea members of ?COBgreai on?: is to bg dropped by diawing Iota, In each a panic, th?* House would ccilainly select five particularly stiff ami uiiie:i-?oiialile I't-iiinciats, and the S?*nat<* live still gad n'iiea-onable Ke jniblit ans. <-iieh houae naturally ehooeiBg men who could not be moved by any argument to rut ocainat its party. The dropping of one man by lot is intended i<? ihtiiniiiie, and un? der Mich ?oinlitious would sun ly determine, Hi'- de i.?ion of the board. Either house, we may pn-siim?*, would gelect men gate t?i cany ?ml thfl will ot tin- majority of that house, reason or no leaaon. Tin reaalt would be a decision correspondu);-; with the political preferences of ili?; meaiberg coaipogiog the iiriiiiii, and the majority of tin..se iiiemb?:is would be Qxed by hit. This i> an awkward und iiicou-isicid mode of reaching the result. It would be infinitely easier to provide that on the L4thof Pebruarji ill the pre-? n?-e of the two hoiliM-of CoogTegfl, ihe President oi tin- Senate shall loaa a cop? per, and while the metal is spinning in I In air Mr. Hewitt shall cry "Heads" or "Tails "for -Tilden.*1 This would be a most In? genious and simple mode of settling u ques? tion so ditlieiilt. ami il would be \< iy much better than tin- cambrons contrivance of a large -*o_.mi?ras_on. li is absurd to detail nine men to record the regal! of the flip of i cop? per. Certainly il is not neceasary tO detail bun- menibers oi the BnpreoM Conrt of the United St.itis for that duty. 1'iiless the cop pi r should Ik? biilld?i/?-d, any newsboy of m??d.-rai?- intellect ??mid deride the qttestioa. [f the ?Beaate and the House were each to select i ?-oiiiiniiie?', knowing that its dechdon woald br ?based, not upon a(<-iileiit, but apon law ami evidence, we niighl expect the ?hoi???, of a vi iv difiere nt soil of min. ||m? H.in-'i might choose, aad ?the ?Senate, are hope, would choose, at least one man of high character and independent habits of mind. In the end, that man woi,Id settle tin* qui-ilion, ami would ii.?-id?' upofl tin* v\i ighl of evidence, and the for?-?- of reasoning submitted. Believing that neither bouse has any power whatever to look behind the n-tniii?. from a State, we <h> not hesitate to say that, if such iBTestigatioii must determine tin* result of the election at all. it should be mad?? by a committee equally ?livid?*?! politically, ??.? that no decision could be expected unless the weight of prool and argument, <?n one si?l?! ?ir the other, should Mill!? i!. liul if a? rident is to di termine the compo iiiiiiii of the board, accident will tletriiiino the result of (lie electioo. The Aimriian pea pie, in that ease, have elected oobody, The diet-Imix. the flying copper, or the drawn M taw, shall elect a l'i?-.i?lent lor us.

Tin* eonrentions luviiig noaii naii'il, l?t i-ncli then designate it-? most skilled gambler, end let the Preaidency depend upon a mal of skill OT lii?l. between the two. pos? sibly, in time, we might arrive at i he dignity of seeing a President elected by a game of "Old sledge.1]_ AQAMEMNON.

The strong eompnnieB naturally v.i.sh to demonstrate their strength, and put the bnatoeaa on a basis of abeolute confidence with their patrons. The "nursin*,-" of weak companies has been tried for the past live yeara, and has brought American Life Insurance to its present pans. Insolvent companies should not goon doing busineaaany more than insolvent aavinga banks or insolvent merchants. It is not only a fraud upon their immediate patrons und a damage to tin? entire business, but it is againat the common good and a ctinie againat the whole community. since ihe depreaafon^B life Insurance set in, the harvest of the blackmailers ha. begun.

THE SNOW BLOCKADE, The amount of snow which at present coven* Northern, Central, and Westen New-York has not lieon equaled since 1H57, if even tlien. Thronghent a nrreat part?an of this reglen it lies three feet deep on the level, and is fre? quently drifted to a bight of 10 or 10 feet. Fences are buried to their top rails: roads are almost impassable, even for the, heavy country sledges] and the various railwavs an. o_Hg0_ to reopen their buried trucks day after day. The snow brings to the New-York Central an unexpected and peculiar difficulty. Ob single track railroads a snow-plow chars the way promptly, efficiently, and permanently. Hven on B donblo track the snow-plow is of ?reut service. Only M a quadruple trick does Steam prove, utterly unequal to the ctner geney of a great snow situai There the plow ?leurs one track only to throw the ?mow upon another.' ?Steam la found ?seles?, and the railroad authorities are thrown back to I he most primitive appliance??, and compelled to employ an army of laborers to shovel the snow from every sqnan foot of their four tracks? from one side of the State to the other. The Roches 1er . and Ihitl'alo papers have had very little to say about the matter, but the New York Central has been in a Stats of al? most hop) lest confusion for eight days past. In the Mohawk Valley, between ITtic.i and Uonie, at, Lyons and Clyde on the direct line, and at Chili, BergBB, and Church ville, between Etochester and B?llalo, the drifts amount to a blockade, which is const intly renewed, and the trams are running very much at random. The snow of 1'iiduy nii*ht, ?tlthoiii.h not mon? dial! three or f?>ur inches in depth on a level, M Idled the channels already cut out with difficulty through the drifts of laut Monday, that both eastern and western express trains WeTC 17 hours behind time. The train which should have reached Albany at '_:iiO a. in. on Saturday, arrived at 7:30 p. m., drawn by four locomotives. There a new train was made up, and Ihe famished and frozen passen*?.*!-?, aftei making ten .?tops between Albany and this city, arrived at 10 minutes past 'A on Sunday morning. The forces of the company stem In? adequate to overe?me the difficulties of the --?(.nation, and the continu.nice of a low tem? perature, with the indieaiiona of fresh now? slot ins, will probably impede travel on this line for some time to come, PnaBBBgO-B ar riving by these delayed trains repoli ?i lack of system, of prompt, efficient action in ? he management, which we trust will soon be remedied. The roads ruoaingnorth and south have cither been Bnpeded to a much less de? gree, or they have beoB better able to over? e?me the difficulties, for their trains on Satur day morning were not more than an hour be? hind time. While (hi. inusual fall of snow is the caitv f so much ii< lay, annoyance, loss, and aufler m;, to ihose w, ?? travel, it is a circumstance of good omen to the eonntry. It will replenish, far more ellectnel.. than rains, the diminished springs, streams, and rivers; it is almost a positive security for bountiful harvests next Siiininer, and Its effect upon the .encrai health of tin* people will be equally beneflcial. More? over, travelers to and from Ihn West aro not conlined to a sin**!?- route, and may thus easily escape what aright otherwise lie a very serious obstacle. STATE OF THE STREETS. The business of removing the snow and ice from some of our main tliorotij-difui-cs, princi? pally from Broadway, began yesterday morning, and may be considered a Sunday labor of unmis? takable necessity or charity. Nature hud al? ready accompliahed a portion of the work through the process of evaporation; but Hier?* si ill remained great ledges of ice and snow, staking sharp work for the pickax mal shovel* while all day long carta full of the debris passed in piOU SSlen to the docks and returned empty, so that unless we have an? other heavy snow-fall, the streets promise this Wedh to be more tolerable, both for bipeds and for quadrupeds. Thus far, it must In? admitted, wo hive had a pretty hard Winter of it, what with public and private BOglect. There was sunn? doubt, or at least there was some dispute, ?is to who should do the necessary service for the middle of the Streets and the ciossiiic-s; but then was no doubt about that of cleaning the sidewalks; yet the idea which some householders have ? uteriained of the way in which this should be done has been ?it hast ecceiitric,. In nine cas? s out of ten it has been performed In a slovenly und ineffectual manner, Increasing rather than diminishing the safety and ease of pedestrians. The premiaea in front of which WO could walk with heads uplifted and in a perfectly free manner have been few. Generally, the work being intrusted to some Irresponsible person, a thin coating of ice has been left upon the pavessent, so that walking there has really not been so easy as in places where the SBOW has been regularly trodden down. Here and (here SOBM tenant has compromised for his negligence by scattering ashes or sawdust, and for this we are trilling to count him among the least of offenders. it is unnecessary to say that streets in ,**ood Condition in the middle and apon both sides are absolutely necessary in a great commer? cial city, or that a different condition involves a loss of time and consequently of money in proportion to the serioiMiicss of the Impedi? menta. Well-appointed streets aie among the triumphs of civilisation ; yet if we had noth? ing else lo plead in abatement of an indict? ment for barbarism, what with our snow ?mil nc in Winter and our mud and dust in Sum? iller, of how many unenli'-litetied nuisances could we be convicted !
