Election is choice, and ihoice cannot exist witlunit in- tention, which is the very soul and life of the whole matter. An election is, in fact, nothing more, in all its forms, than a mode of SPEECH. 285 ascertaining the intention of the electors. When, therefore, that intention is fully and legitimately ascertained, the election can- not be construed as extending beyond the intent and object of the electors; in other words, the act should not be construed beyond the will of the actors. If, then..., the People of Missis- sippi did, 'in July last, intend to elect representatives for three months only, and did, in point of fact, vote for the purpose of filling that period of time alone, is it not an absurdity and a falsehood to assert that such election was for two years ? It does not affect the matter at all to say that they had no right to elect for three months, but had a right to elect for two years. The only result of such a proposition would be, that the election was void, inasmuch as the people had attempted io do what the Constitution did not authorize- them to do.
