We should have been content to have let
the matter drop after Mr. Bacon‘s first he
spouse. but as he by persistently continuing
its publication seems anxious to impress
upon us the idea that his points are clinch~
era. and is inclined to crow over it, we have
made up our minds it would be as well for
us to comb him down a little.
As to his first point that “ editorial char-
acters are not so very luminous as that they
may not occasionally want a small mantle
dropped over them.” he may speak from
personal experience. and we shall not at-
tempt to controvert his admissions in rela.

his characterwe‘ll drop a “ small" one. and
say no more about that.
His secondly. that a thing is not dishono-

making a distraction where there is but lit-

PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.
The main featurns of the plan “epicu-
on by a majority d the Sea-ea
on privileges and elections, appointed at
the last session of Congress. to consider
during the recess of congress acoustltutlon-
al amendment. are as fol lows:
1. To abolish the electoral college. 3
3. That the president and vice president
be elected by the people voting directly for
the candidates.
3. That each state shall be divided into
as many districts as the state is entitled to
representatives in congress to be composed
of contiguous territory. cont t in form.
and as nearly cal in populat on as may be.
and the persetfqhaviug the highest number
of votes for president in each district shall
receive the vote of that district which shall
count one presidential vote; that each state
shall be entitled to two presidential voters
at large. which shall be counted for the per-
son having the highest number of votes in
the whole state.
4. The person having the highest number
of such residential votes in the United
States shall be president.
5. These provisions to beappllcahlc to the
electionof vice-presi d.eot .
6x Congress shall have poser lup iii!
for holding and conducting the elm-ode f
president and vice-president, and to cetitb-
fish a tribunal for the decision of contents
as to the vote in any district or state. and
make regulations governing the proceedings
of these tribunals.
This plan proposes to do away with the
electoral college, but still retains its cardi-
nal principle and allows of the election by
palsy—congressional! districts —,inslead of
adopting the true principle of a popular
majority. We never yet could see any ob-
jection to voting for candidates for Presi-
dent and ViccPrcsideut. as for any other
elective ofiice, and have the aggregate vote ‘
decide the contest.

THE 0 YSTER TRA DE.
A person interested in the oyster business
gives to the Baltimore America» a discouo
aging account of its prceent prospects.
There are now there. or on the way to that
port. more than one hundred vessels with
loads of oysters for which there is absolute-
ly no sale at remunerative prices. ‘ The or-
ders from the west are very light. and the
packers having invested their means largely
in fruit packing, find it difficult to get our
rency to purchase the cargoes of the oyster-
men. even at the low rates. Some of the
oystermeu. fearing that their bivalves will
spoil, have laid them out by the shore.
where they expect to collect them without
much diMculty. if times improve; others in
disgust, will throw theirs into deep water.
But for the financial stringency the oyster
business would have been very good this
season. and it may yet be so if public confl-
dencc is soon restored.
Useless School.
The new Union school house was opened
on Thursday last. and the school organised
for the term. It was supposed by the com-
mittee that seven rooms would be sufficient
to accommodate the attendance.but already
they have been overrun and it has been
found necessary to open the eighth. and
bliss Booth has been engaged as teacher.
We are glad to see this evidence of what
has been claimed by the advocates of a new
school house. via: that as soon as decent
quarters were provided. a great many more
scholars would attend the public schools
than heretofore. On Tuesday last. there
was in attendance at the two school hous—
about six hundred scholars..and still there
3 room for more. Now that the whole
thing is completed. and we have one of the
finest school houses-and every prospect of
one of the best schools in the couhtry. we
hope those that have. from the best of mo
tives no doubt, opposed the enterprise, will
see that what hs'beeu Que bfd intilt-gh
interestsof and Sin as
interest now in the school as they did in the
school house. Arrangements are being
completed by which a {gutsy dydloatiou
and opening of the building. will be made
at no late day. _
