On that (lay the Federal Gov- .ernient asks eneh State who are its residential electors, and the reply gvet by the Governor and the Re- turting Board on that day must be treated as a verity hy the two Houses of Congress because in making that dclaration the State is overeign aud iyond the cotr-ol or inquiry of any pairer. We arc not now complain- log of that decision of the commis. ion. It was a clear, distinct and hold declaration of the sovereign power inherent in a State, despite the fderaI Union, and as againae thn two Houses of Congress. It went so, ft as to recognize the power of a stlte to commit and uphold any m.- giheable fraud in the creation of rFesidential electors, in its partici- aliob in the Government of tie Uni. ted States and in its diseharge of a dnty imposed by the Constitution.- That decision of the Commission un- derwhich Mr, Hayes acts as Pirei- jent can only be upheld by the vin- dication of a doctrine of State rights ai inteusely anti-national in Whig or republican eyes as any for which Mr. Calhoun ever contended.

The conditionsi of tbe bargain were an angreement on the pnrt of the Democrtsa tla.it they should be no fillibustering in the House of Reiresentatives, sAe, l as wasn then tlhreatened, to prevent tie con Celsion of time eectoral count; and that thin declaratiao that Hayes wans elect d should not be interfered with. Thle mainnrp wras in the nrwer ofe the Demn. crats of thle House, and if these Sounth- ern Ineul h]ad ben willing to allow schIr flliblistering, Hayee could not have been declared elected, nnd could not have gained pssessinn of lle gov- rriniient and thus the whole Republi- ain ecnspiracy would hate come to naunght, with all that hIuid been donlec in Snnth Carolinia, Florida, Louisiana and in W1ashington. TiBe managers of Hayes had no choice but to agree to the dumat[ls of those who had the [,pwer to keep him out the WInte IHouse; and what they agreed to on their part was simply that, as soo0n as Hayes was installerl, the troops of the United States shiuld be witlidrawi from South Carolina and Louisiana, and that the Demoeratic Governmenots of those States should be allowed to established themselves witlhot fiturrhie interference of Federal power. Final- ly, before the bargain was fully con- cluded, the agents if Col.

power inherent in a State, despite the

ft as to recognize the power of a

stlte to commit and uphold any m.-

giheable fraud in the creation of

rFesidential electors, in its partici-

aliob in the Government of tie Uni.ted States and in its diseharge of a

That decision of the Commission un-

derwhich Mr, Hayes acts as Pirei-

dication of a doctrine of State rights

or republican eyes as any for which

Mr. Calhoun ever contended. We

It is Lnw establisnled by annaestion-ed elidelnce thiat lthe idRal eimpleion

of the electoral count and the declara-tiol by Congress (if tin result deter-

mined by the Electoial Cminitisinn,was accomplished through a bargaiin

Cmade mada between Chiailals Fuster asnd

Stanley Matthews f Ohlii, as rcpresen-litaitea of Mr. Hayes, an'd a number if

Southern Democratl. The conditionsi

of tbe bargain were an angreement on

the pnrt of the Democrtsa tla.it theyshould be no fillibustering in the

House of Reiresentatives, sAe, l as wasnthen tlhreatened, to prevent tie conCelsion of time eectoral count; and that

thin declaratiao that Hayes wans elect d

should not be interfered with. Thlemainnrp wras in the nrwer ofe the Demn.

crats of thle House, and if these Sounth-ern Ineul h]ad ben willing to allow

schIr flliblistering, Hayee could nothave been declared elected, nnd couldnot have gained pssessinn of lle gov-

rriniient and thus the whole Republi-

ain ecnspiracy would hate come tonaunght, with all that hIuid been donlec in

Snnth Carolinia, Florida, Louisiana and

in W1ashington. TiBe managers ofHayes had no choice but to agree to

the dumat[ls of those who had the

[,pwer to keep him out the WInteIHouse; and what they agreed to on

their part was simply that, as soo0n asHayes was installerl, the troops of the

United States shiuld be witlidrawi

from South Carolina and Louisiana,

and that the Demoeratic Governmenots

of those States should be allowed to

established themselves witlhot fiturrhie

interference of Federal power. Final-

ly, before the bargain was fully con-

cluded, the agents if Col. Tom Scott

got a clause inserted, the effect that

Mr. Baye should also encourage and

approve thie building of the Southeros

Pacisl Railroad, by mean eitlher olGovernment subsidies or a loan of theGovernment credit.

The compact entered into by thf
