THE A NSON hARDY PAPEIR CUTTER is by far the best machine which can be ob tained for a less price than one hundred :dollars. It is of great strength. 'Theso machines have always taken the highest stand. It is the only machino to which is applied the Patent Movable Cutting Sboard. This device has a reputation of itscli: by it., the cutting board can be in stantly and accurately uioved, so that a perfect cut is insured. This is a very im portant point in the machine, and one that is pssoessed by no other. It greatly reduces the labor of preparation in work img the paper backward and forward. We cannot too strongly recommend the advantages of this patent movable board. It is worth the price of this machine, and purchasers should fully understand how highly it is to be valued. "-Geo.

Hlendricks for Vice Presulont. ~~ The certificates of?a ~rkansas we're then read, and the ti ecsult was announced as six votes Ol ~or Tildeni and Hendricks. After ,el ihoe presiding officer had kkiftlj It mame qluestion' as iii tho' Alabama E sase, the Californ~a ,'eigcates wereh read by Mfr, #topne, and six votes l3 were announced for R. B.

Allison, and six inore o were anpouncedfor i'ilden and eon-- h diecs. The Delaware ,certifieste t, was read by Mr. Ingalls and three ii mevtswere scored for Tfilden a reached, and the presiding offiser first handedj the certificate signed by (ov. Stearns, which recognized the Hayes eloctors, an~d after it had been read the certificate of tl o elec tors for Tilden and' Hendricks was alo banded out, and both were read by Mr. Stope, while Mr. Allison over looked the diplicate.

Included $jj the papers was the actiori of the Tilden electors and the subsequent review of the count by order 4f the Supreme Court. -Tliio litter docu mnent contains an elaborate detail of the Florida case from a Democ atic standpoint. After the reading had progressed some time Mr. Conkling called attention to the fact tha- the paper now being road '1 ilirty six wide columns of printed matter. He know that the statute reqiiiieo that all the papers s5hoil be read, but aftpr- copeyl.ition with meinbers ~of both liousen rie thought the law would be com )licd with by simply rea4" tbe esult. There wai n10 ojection rho resitlt was announced-that she Tilden electors had been elect 3d. The chair then asked if there vas any objection to ,the vote of Florida. David buidley ield, A vew York, arose and subni te4 vritten objections to counting the roto of that State.
