Letter from the State Capital Coreupes January 8 1877
The letter discusses a solid North winter and snow markets for sleighs on East Broad and Euclid avenues. It reports legislative sessions resuming with efforts to codify laws, a sharp clerkly clash over a report, and the Agricultural Society and livestock conventions. It cites public health, milk fraud in New York, and national election tallies with Democratic gains and Radical reactions. It ends with heated pro Republican quotes and threats of violence if Tilden is elected.

Who Counts the Electoral Votes The Records
The article argues that Congress has never granted the President of the Senate power to count electoral votes. It traces early practice from 1789 to 1865, noting joint resolutions assign tellers and require joint action. It cites Madison and Langdon and discusses resolutions about inspecting electors and the role of state certificates and Supreme Court decisions in contested cases.
