The Herald special from Geneva, 18th
eays another very long day has boo:
passed by the,agents and counsel of th
two contracting powers. From an earl
hour this morning, they have been ec
gaged in a long consultation. Lac
night, the Americana had arranged som
pleasant excursions, with an early stai
this morning; but at a late hour, bot
aides received important despatohei
whioh caused a postponement of tb
trip. ' Shortly before 10 o'clock, S
Rondell Palmer visited Mr. Evarts, an
reported. At e later hoar this af ternooi
Evarts had a long consultation with tb
British counsel, at the Hotel des Be
guee. In fact, the British agent an
American counsel have been fully ocoi
pied sot only in seeing each other, bi
in receiving and forwarding long di
spatohes. It ia evident that unlesa tl
counsel on both aides come to son
agreement to-night, acting upon instrn
tiona of their Governments, the coo
will again meet on Wednesday, p
forma, and be requested once more
adjourn. In that event, ii will not j!
surprising to hear of an adjournme
for several days; because the agents
both parties find that the interval of oi
day does not give sufficient time for t
transmission of telegraphic despatch?
and in this respect, the Americans, are
a greater disadvantage, as their comm
nioations must be sent to London ai
then to Washington. Both Govei
meets receive the best of assistance frc
the Swiss and French telegraph din
tors. It ia not improbable that ant
journment will enable one or both sic
tc scrrender ??heir; ground, or consent
certain modifications, whioh could i
have been done before, without exposi
themselves to a oharge of having gil
way to the dictation of opposite sid
It is very evident that efforts are bei
made to adjourn until next week,
hopes that Granville and Fish may

There have been partial riainga ol Ut- ?

Serrano, with absolute power for spend?

at the rejection of their proposals by the
King, and say that the last attempt at <
forming a Conservativo Ministry under (
Amadeus has been tried. "A IV J ?cal

MAWTTHB OF-EZiXOrTNO PltESFDENT ARD
VIOB PRESIDENT.-The Cincinnati En?
quirer gives tbe following intorestiog ac?
count of tbe manner in which the elec?
tion of the President and Vice-Pr?sident
of the United States is conducted:
There is nothing more complicated
than the election of the President and
Viae-Preaident under our present politi?
cal system. How it ever could have
been devised is a mystery. There are
few, even among our most intelligent
men, who can explain from the com?
mencement the manner in which a Pre?
sident and Viae-President are elected,
and the great mass of the people are
profoundly ignorant. We propose here
to trace the election up from the germs:
First, there is the primary town or
local oauous for the different parties;
then comes the County, District and
State Conventions. Through that ma?
chinery delegates are appointed to a
National Convention. These National
Oonventioos nominate candidates. These
nominations, however, legally amount to
nothing. Each State elects a nnmber of
electors corresponding to its Senators
and Representatives in Congress, and
they vote for whom they ohooso abso?
lutely for President and Vice-President.
There is nothing requiring them to vote
foi any man who has been Dominated,
except BO far as they may consider it
binding in honor. The Constitution in?
tended that they should have the first
and fioal choice. Its fra'mers supposed
that the electors would be among the
first men in the country, and would be
better judges of who' would be fit for
President and vice-President than their
constituents, the people; hence they
have made an intermediate body.
In order to give these Electoral Col?
leges full authority, tho electors are ob?
liged to vote by secret ballot. Suppose,
for instance, Ohio should popularly cast
its twenty-two electoral votes for the
candidates who were in the field, and
suppose it to be against Grunt and hie
colleagues, but upon counting the elec?
toral votes, there might be a number for
Grant. These votes would stand, and it
would be next to or quite impossible to
find out the person who had cast them
against the will of the people. Th?
United States Senator in this State it
votod for by the members of the Legis
lature, viva voce, and if there is any be
trayal of pledgos, the responsibility eau
not bo dodged. But there is no suet
security in our votes for President anc
vice-President. It is to the credit o!
the country that thus far in seventy
years no elector, under the shield of tb<
secret ballot, has ever cast a vote differ
ent from that which it wus inteuded bj
the people he should give.
After the Electoral College has met ii
each State, ou the first Wednesday o
December, aud oasts its vote, it sends i
messenger with it to Washington. Earl;
in February the votes of the States ar
opened in joint session of the two houses
the President of the Senate presiding
In case one candidate has a majorit
overall the others, he is declared elected
If not, the Senate retires to its ohambei
aod the House prooeeds to vote for th
three highest candidates who had bee
voted for by the electors. Tho vote i
not, however, according to the usui
form, bat is given by States. Thus Ne
York is called with her thirty-one men
bers. They ask leave to retire, and d
retire. Sixteen of them direct that tb
vote of the State-aad it is oaly one
bo recorded for the candidate ruooic
against Graot. Delaware is oalled, whic
has hut a siegle member, aud he eas
one vote, the same as has been givea b
the thirty-one gentlemen of the Empii
State. E tch ??tate has simply one vot
and a majority of the delegation dete
mines it. A majority of all tho State
whioh are now thirty-seven in numbe
would b%nineteen, and that is absolute
required. If the voto should star
eighteen for U. S. Grant, eighteen f
Judge Davis, and one State equally tl
vided and caBtiug no vote, there won
bo no choice.
Oa the 4th of March, tho session
Congress not only terminates, but tl
terms of its members expire. lu tl
two or throe weeks they havo to vol
they may not elect uny mau for Prei
dent. The House has beeu, on one c
casion, nine weeks ia choosing a Speak?
aad it is reasonable to assume that
might be three weeks aud not elect
President. Theo, wo hear tho read
inquire, who, on tho 4th of Marc
would be President? We will furtl
explain. Whoa thero is no choice j
Presideat, and no choice for Vice-Pre
dent, the United States Seuato chun,
the latter officer. By a wiso provisi
lu the Constitution, the Senate sele
between the two highest catididates vol
for by the electors. As tho Senat
vote individually, a choice ia almost c
tain to be made. Tho Vice-Presid?
being elected, aud the 4th of Maroh
riviog without a President, ho assoc
that office for four years, the same at
the President had diod; or as if he hi
self had beea elected. lu case there
no vice-President on the 4th of Mar
the office devolves upon tho Presid
pro (em. of tbs Senate; and in caso of
disability, upon the Speaker of
House; then upon the Chief Justice
the Supreme Court; aad, finally, u|
the oldest, in length of service, of
Associate Justices. But in case of a
ability of both President and Vioo-I
sidont, the persoa disohargiog the da
of Presideut does aot hold the full te
bat oaly till the next annual Noveai
1 eleotioa, whea a new Presideat
! Vice-Presideot will be elected for i
years.

OBNTEKWIAIJ OF NAZABRTET OHTJROH.
?8 previously auuounoed, the congrega
tion of Nazareth celebrated. the hun?
dredth birth-day of their choroh on last
Saturday, the 15th inst. For weeks past
the good people of that neighborhood,
who are inferior to none in the State in
intelligence and in their devotion to the
claims of .a pore religion, had been busy
with preparations for this grand memo?
rial day. The present church edifice,
whioh is a commodious brick structure,
built in 1832, was made to look almost
new in its fresh coat of paint, and large
awnings were stretched along the ends
and ooo side of the building, in order to
accommodate those who would not be
able to find seats inside the chnroh.
Nothing was forgotten whioh would
make the arrangements complete. The
day was most propitious; cloudy, with
pleasant breezes, and a copious shower
of rain to lay the dust in tue afternoon.
At half-past 10 o'clock A. M., when we
reached the spot, the beautiful grove
surrounding the church was filled with
horses and carriages of every descrip?
tion, and the ohurch crammed with a
vast throng eager to secure seats where
they could see and hear all that was
done and said; and by ll o'elock the as?
semblage numbered not less than 1,000
persons.
At half-past ll o'clock, the exercises
commenced with aa appropriate and
beautiful voluntary, from a choir of me?
lodious singers; after whioh, ROY. R. H.
Reid, the faithful and loved pastor of
the church, read a short Bketcb, pre?
pared for the oocasion, giving ns briefly
os possible the facto' concerning the
origin and lifo of the church, during the
century through which it had lived.
According to the history thus given
ns, the flrBt house of worship built upon
the site of the present building, was
erected in 1765, by a few families of
Scotch-Irish Presbyterians, who emi?
grated from Pennsylvania atid settled
upon the Tygers in 1761, and that a
church was regularly organized in the
spring of 1772. That the first ministei
who preached for this congregation wac
Dr. Alexander, who then resided or
Bullock's Greek, in York District; and
; that tho first public road through tiru
! County was an enlargement of the bridle
path out out for Dr. Alexander to travel,
when he came to dise?arse his ministe
rial duties. The elders eleoted at th<
organization of the church were Captait
Andrew Barry, Robert Nesbitt, Johi
McElrath and Thomas Peden. We can'
not undertake, with the limited space a
our command, to give this hist?rica
sketch entire, however interesting i
might be to mauy of car readers, nut
must pass on to speak of the address o
Dr. B. M. Palmor.
The occasion was a grand one, an<
every one felt that the priest who shout*
stand up before tho vast throng assem
bled upon this occasion, and minister a
an altar consecrated by the prayers an
tears of a oentury, should indeed be on
upon whom the mantle of the prophe
had fallen, and ono fired by the spiri
and genius of the Apostle to the Gen
tiles. Suoh were our own feeling
while in solemn tones the speaker coi
tinned to read, one after another, tL
inspired words of the Psalmist 50 a]
propriately chosen as part of the intr<
duotory service. When, however, 1
had annonnoed as his theme "Tl
Glory of God as manifested through tb
Church," nnd with the muscular stride
of an intellectual giant, had carried 1
with him to a height where we migl

grandeur of the subject and the occ

the impossibility for any human mini
however wide its grasp or broad tl

No worthier priest, however, could ha'
stood at this altar of our fathers, <
this closing day of the century, tbi
this beloved minister of Christ, who f
moro than thirty years has proclaim*
with such zeal, power and learning tl
unsearchable riches of the Gospel. F
oue hour and a half the immense throi
crowding the aisles, tho doors and wi
dows of the building, hung in aime
breathless silence upon his words. T
address in the beginning struck the tri
koy-note to whioh every heart and mil
responded, and as the heights a
depths of human knowledge were 1 OUE
ed to give adequate expression to t
vast and mighty conceptions inspired
the subject and the occasion, the wh<
auiliunce were borne along as npon t
1 swelling tide of some grand harmoi
sometimes wild and terrible in its the
