AUGUST ELECTION.

It of the election m this State has agrecably disappointed us, not so much in final result, asin the large majorities. During the whole summer we felt confident of returning four administration members “to Congress: we have cerlainly elected five, to,wit: W. W. Wick, Jolin Carr, J. W. Davis, Thomas Smith and 'T. A. Howard—all by large majorities, Not a word has been heard from the first di trict, ,in which Owen is the democratic and Proitt the whig candidate. In the fifth dis-

trict, J. Rariden, whig, is probably elected.” We have abundant cause to rejoice over this result, but weshall not follow theexample usually set by the whigs, of manifesting our eratification, by triumphant processions, by rejoicing, by parades, by firing canvon, or by dluminations. Let us be calm, and let us re- solve to maintain our present position. In every district the Independent ‘Treasury was seated by our party. We published, and circulated six thousand copies of the indepen- dent ‘Treasury bill, and every democratic pres: in the State published if, and by coaxing, soli- citing, begging, eitreating ond daring, we succes nz almost every whig paper to publish it safely can say that the whole number of copies published and circu- lated exceeded fifty thousand—enough to give every. voter in the state ap opportunity to read it, We candidly believe, from the result of the election that a large majority of the voters

in this State were in favor of this measure”

“To the whigs and democrats out of this State we submit some facts, from which they may judge. We make no comments, as com- ments are useless, Facts and figures,are the strongest argument.”

“John Ewing (whig) in 1887 in the second district reosived a majority, over John Law the democratic candidate, of 641. This year hn Ewing is beaten by J. W. Davis the dem- “oeratic candidate, at least 500. In the third

JUDGE BROWNE. ~ Our readers are aware that Judge Browne refused to sit on the life-time case, on a pretext of a connexion with John A. McClernand.

No person or collection of per sons, being one of these departments, shall exercise any power properly belonging to either of the others, except as hereinalter ex pressly directed or permitted.” - ‘The power of removal must necessarily be vested in some one of these three department. In which is it deposited? Ts it the legislature? Ivis the peculiar province of this department to form, to make, enact the laws, not to ex- pound or execute them, Each department must act within the sphere and limits of its own peculiar functions, and cannot exercise those properly belonging to another, uules expressly directed or permitted. Is the pow- er to appoint and remove executive officers a legislative function? Has it any necessary connection with the enactment of the laws, This certainly will not be pretended. ‘The mere statement of the proposition shows its

proyes thot it cannot belong to the legislauve department. Then, Sir, docs it belong to the Judiciary? Ts it a judicial function, coming within the general grant of judicial powers? ‘The duties und powers of the judiciary are as clearly and xplicitly defined as those of the legislature. ‘The latter make the laws; the former expound them. Does the power to expound, interpret and explain the laws carry with it, by impli- ation or otherwise, the right to appoint or remove executive officers? Is the one nece: sary to the accomplishment of the other? Clearly it isnot. ‘There is no connection e: isting between then. ‘The functions are en- tircly dissimilar, and of consequence must be- Jong to different departments. hen, Sir, since this power of appointment and removal does not belong to cither the Je- gislative or judicial departments, it follows by irresistable inference that it is vested in the executive. But the nature of the power itself proves it to be an executive function. The Secretary of State is an executive officer, his powersjare of an executive character, and his duties confined within the Iimits of the executive department. It has been denied, however, in argument (by Messrs. Davis and Walker) that the Secretary isan executive o ficer. Those gentlemen’ insist with great earnestness tnt heis a constitution aud not on executive officer, True he i con- stitutional officer; the constitution creates th office, provides for the appointment, avd in part defines the dutics. But does it necessar- ily follow from this, that he is not an execu- live officer also? ‘Thesame instrument creates the office of governor, provides for his elec tion, and in part prescribes his duties, and

First, that the power of removal is an er- ecutive function. Secondly, that this power is vested in the President by the constitution of the United States. ‘The first section of the third article constitution of our State reads thus: “The| 3 live power of the State shall be vested 2 If then the President pos-|t sses the power of removal, “by virtue of the clauses of the constitution vesting in him the execulive power, surely the governor poss the same power of removal by virtue of the same clauses in onr State constitution. In connection with this branch of the sub- ject I will call theattention of the court to the 7th Seo. of the 3d Art. of the constitution, in these words: “He [the governor] m iuformation in writing from the ¢ the executive department, upon any

The Secretary of State is one of them, and even keeps the records of that department, The governor then may require from himvinformation in writing. Not that he may ask sor it, or request it, but he may demand, may “require” it, thus im- plying an obligation on the part of the Secre tary to comply with the requisition. ‘The rightto require the performance of an act, presupposes the right to use the means vece: sary to enforce a compliance with the require- ment.

FOR SALE OR RENT

HE Store Houses formerly occupied by

Capt. William Linn, in the town of Vandalia, being opposite the public square, cornerivg on Gallatinand lourth streets, and decidedly among the best business stands in the place. ‘The building contains two store rooms-in front, one back room, with a back building. ‘The upper story consists of two large rooms, and is at present occupied os a printing offic Also, a vacant lot adjoining the above prop- ty, containing 80 by 112 feet and front- on Fourth street, ‘Also, a two story frame dwelling house, on Fifth street. Tho lot on which it stands contains 80 by 156 fect. Beside the house which contains six rooms including a long dining room, the premises includes.a back building, a smoke house, milk house, kitchen, and carriage house, with a well of excellent wator. ‘I'he remainder of the lot is,enclosed in a garden, containing various fruit trees, shrubbery, vines, vegitables, &c. The property is in excellent preservation.

‘Also, alot opposite the above, having a good stable of two stories on thé back part of it, andan ice house. The lot is 80} by 150 fect, and adjoins the lot on which Col. Black's large store stands. A store house might be erected on this lot with great ad- vantage to the purchaser.

Also, a lot of land on the Kaskaskia bottom, adjoining the town, containing excellent tim- ber, and fronting on the National Road.

The above property is among the best in Vandalia, which is not surpassed by any in- land townin the State for the amount of bu- siness done in it. The great Cumberland road runs through the town, from east to west, and the Central railroad from north to south. Both roads are now in the course of construction at this place, havinga large num- ber of hands at work upon them. ‘The Kas- kaskia river washes the east side of the town, and will shortly be navigable for steam boats to this place, the obstructions being now in the course of removal under tho provisions of the Internal Improvement law.

‘The business of the place, so far from hay- ing declined since the removal of the seat of Government, is rapidly increasing,and Yan- dalia cannot fail tobe ina short timo among the largest inland towns in the State of Illi- no!

No part of this property would be offered for sale, but for the necessary removal of the subscriber to Springfleld, the seat of Govern- ment.

To a person, having a small capital, and a knowledge of either tho dry goods or gro- cery business, the above property would be eminently desirable.

"Vorms.—One-fourth of the purchase mo- ney incash,and the balance in notes satis- factorily endorsed, payable in one and two years. WILLIAM WALTERS.
