Mr. John Kaufman drove his snlendid uair of French Canadian horses, one of the finest and most stylish teams in the county. The horses are valued at $1,000, and were imported from Canada, where tbey were selected by Mr. Kaufman himself.

The inspecting party stopped at the Port Clinton rolling mill, which is at present in mil operation, turning out chains and bolts After an examination of the works they were haudsoiuely entertained by the proprietor, Mr. minis, at bis residence. I he party ar rived about noon at Hamburg, where they took dinner at Joseph N. Shonio's hotel, and remained until four o'clock, when all left for home.

For some time past there has been great activity iu all the great steel rolling mills in the country. The demand for steel rails is largely in excess of what it was last year.

Many of the milts were willing for the corre sponding period in 1879 to accept orders at from $38 to $40 a ton, although the large corporations did not make any contracts at less than $40. 1 Hiring the present season there has been a gradual advance; until now the large mills are refusing contracts at $44 a ton at the works. Three mills that were closed have resumed work, and all tbe Western corporations are working full time. Another Church Appraised by a Sheriff's Jury.

WHERE TO IlSer HOW UOONT VOX IS Tbe rirst Measure Iteporlcd to 'u ffreiw by a onnntllee lo Ihe Count of Prealdentlnl Votes Some Objections.

Correspondence Tunes and Dispatch Washington, May 28. Senstor Edmuds, from the Select Committee, appointed to consider and report what changes seem to be de manded by experience relative to ascertaining and declaring the result of Presidential elec tions, has reported the conclusions of members in the form of a bill. It fixes the first Tues day of October every fourth year succeeding a Presidential election as the day Electors in all the States shall be appointed. On the second Monday in January following the electors shall meet in such place in their respective States as the Legislature may have designated, and cast their votes for one person for President and one person for Vice President of the United States. No Senator, Representative or United States official holding a place of trust or emol ument, is eligible.

where to meet how count vote. On the second Monday in February there shall be a joint session of Congress in the Representatives' Chamber, presided over by tbe Vice President. Two tellers from each House are to count the votes in alphabetical order and when ascertained bv reading and counting them aloud, a list of the result is lo be handed to the President of the Senate who is to announce it. Every objection must be signed by at least one senator and one Repre sentative and is to be voted on separately by tbe two nouses. jmo vote is to be rejected except by concurrence of a maioritv of both Houses.

Each Stale by a law enacted prior to the appointment of electors, may provide lor the trial and determination ot any contro versy relative to their appointment, the deci sion reached by tbe slate being bnal. CONTINGENCIES UNPROVIDED FOR. From comments heard here it is evident that Mr. Edmund's bill, while regarded as a step in the right direction, is still thought in complete, does not provide for contingencies which are liable lo happen at any election, and are all most certain to occur in lime. Prior to our last election tbis matter seems to have engaged the attention of very few of our public men.

It will be remembered how little attention Mr. Morton was able to call to it. though he agitated it for several years before the Senate and through tiie papers. But the perils of that occasion aroused every thinking man to tbe imperative necessity of immedi ate action, and to the consciousness that it could not be safely ignored till the occurrence ot another election. HOPE OF THE PEOPLE, There is every reason to hope that out of the wisdom and statesmanship concentrated here every year, a much more perfect method will be evolved, that will at least save us from tbe dangers of a disputed Presidential title.

If tbe same amount of mental labor devoted to the creation of tbe Electoral Commission had been applied prior to the election of 1876. the necessity for that unsatisfactory, extra consti tutional body had been avoided, as well as the rotter Investigation.
