CYBUS S. ODERLY. Editor. THE ELECTORAL VOTE. opimioh or b. u. t. hunter, of vir emiA. . HtrMi Jmmrmn to r lletilnrt Ikt RMma In hr I trir mill lndlaatnllr. T tbsFdiior of the Ner Yovk Herald: ; Richmond, Dec. 0, WO. Five or six days jro I received a letter from your. ; correspondent asking my opinion as to the duties ot the t wo houses ot congrest In counting the electoral votes tor president. 1 was much eiijraireil at the time, and having been long out ol the porltleal world I thought It best to leave it to others more actively engaged in polities to dis cus these question, and not to withdraw my attention from other matters which engage me just now. Cut the question is becoming so important end porten tious that It has occurred to me thi morning that no good citizen should withhold his opinion on this subject it asked." If "the beginning of the end" has not already occurred in the outrage on popular rights which has been re cently coujuiittej by the presldeut nnd other officials in three of the weaker etates. It Is time that the lovers ol popu lar sovereignty and our old lorm ol gov ernment were uniting to interpose for the tlelcuce of the Union and the right ot the people to govern themselves and elect their own presidcut. How this can be preserved without the right of con gress to go behind the returns of presi dential electors and ascertin the number of votes, and how east in the recent elec tion, I do not well see. If it be the duty of congress to "count" the votes given for president, they certainly must have the power to ascertain those whom they are to count; and how are they to do this unless they have the power to go behind the re turns? It is the exclusive interest of the state to know if the voters were qualified, but the whole people of the United States are Interested to know how many votes were cast and to what persons given, for there arc facts which touch the question of the election of the president, who is the officer ot all. Who so fit to examine into those questions, if doubttul, as the congress who are the united repre nentatives ot the whole people? llow rise are the people to be made certain as to the man truly elected to that mon Im portant of all these oflices ? A TOW ER IF NOT GIVKS IX TKTt.MS TO 1!F. mm ed. . If there le no mode of reaching theso results unless there be power in congress to go behind the returns the interference Is not only fair but necessary that such a power is to be Implied. To make this Implication equal to tho exigency It is equisite ; but to vest this power in con gress, which represents tho whole pcoplo in times ot deep popular excitement, or of utter corruption In a state, a strong temptation to return thin vnt falsely might exist in a particular state, when, ns at present, a single electoral vote might and of executive polity. Times may be apprehended when there might be dan ger of a state yielding to such a tempa tion if the opportunity were given it with power in the congress to detect and pni vent it. If the power does not exist now in congress there is none to prevent or heck such an abuse if tho state were to connive at it. To learn the question ol time in this matter under tho supreme control of the representatives ol the whole people, the constitution- provides that "congress may determine the time ot choosing the electors and the day of giving their votes, which day shall be the lanie throughout the United .States" ( fourth section, second article). Jk WIDK KCOrK CF COXtiKF.SPlQ.NAl. VOW I.K.S. But that congress may pass such laws as thall enable It to count the vote of the presidential electors is plain lrom the provision that it may make all laws which are necessary and proper for car rying into execution the forgoing pow. ers and all other powers vested by the constitution in the government of the United States, or In any department or office thereof. It, may not only pass . all laws necessary or proper ' to execute the granted powers, but pass such a may be necessary to discharge a granted duty or ntcesearlly supplementary to execute a tunetion where the grant Is not of Itself complete in terms.' Under this power congress may make the laws which are necessary to enable it "to count the vote." As all the states are interested iu counting truly the vote for president, so that duty and the means necessary to dis charge It ought to be confided to the con gress of the whole. The place of "cast ing" the vote for tho state, and perhaps "the manner" of doing it, inot pecu liarly concerns the state. Itself, to wbomi perhaps, it would be projer to confide those duties, but to ascertain who are legally chosen as electors is the peculiar duty of congress, which cannot be execu ted unless it has THE KIGUT TO CO iiEUIXD HIP. Kl.COKD. I hold, tlferefore, that it Is not only their right but their duty, it it be neces sary to do to ; if that be necessary to ena" tie tlein - to know - who are en titled to cast the votes lyr president.' The hlgeet ol nil rights which a legislature possetvs is to pro vide against anarchy, it, without men action, it would ensue, t.'ould anything be more likely to lead to this than a con tested presidential election without the means to settle it truly and justly''. lT the right of Mil-defence, to protect your life, be a law of nature, Is not the right to defend the lifeol society, tbeexLt?nis of a state, still more undoubted ? For all these reasons I belive the right ot con gress to go behind the records Is Indis putable, aud do not thli.k it necessary to investigate the question as to the exU- trnoe ol tlio joint rule w hich pome r-cm to think so Important. Tlio right of concrcss to go "behind the rerords" to nwc rtnlu whom they re to egunt I hold to he indisputable and tonnded upon hihrr eonsid( ration tlnui those ot rule. It Is a question w h'tcli touches the peace nd existence ol the country which the constitution lttlf aflords the means of decidin-r. Very rcf pectin lly, U. M. T.IIt XTMi.
