Whiggery is every where the same, in its f.,
tiousness and in its inordinate love of powo, I.
has just been playing in the Senate of Tennes,e.
the same game it played in our Senate last Session
The Senate Of Tennessee, which convened a sv
days since, is composed of thirteen democrats oDl
twelve Wings. The democrats selected NJ,
Gardner as their candidate for Speaker, and ba
Wings selected Mr.. Maury as theirs. When
the roll was called and the name OF Mr.. GarjDp,
reached, he followed the usage and declined 10
vote. When Mr.. Maury's name was called, he
cast his cote for some other aOhig Senator At
subsequent stage of the balloting, Mr. Gardner
voted more than once for Mr.. Maury, but The
latter gentleman declined to interchange the com.
pliment, and voted for some oth,r whig Thus
they were balloting 1873 times, when Mr.. Gard.
ner rose, and in an eloquent speech nominated
Mr.. Watterson, democrat, for speaker, and on The
l38th ballot he was elected, Mr.. Bradbury, whg
voting for him. Truly, Whiggery is the same
every where The House of Commons was Or
ganized by the appointment as Speaker of Brook
