would be deprived of their just representa-

case or not, we only know from what we see
in the papers, uncontra dicted by other papers


The issue, however, is submitted to the

Some OF the wig party are endea voring to
excuse their brethren Of Ohio, by Sd wing tina t
the 'sloco foco" minority of the Tennessee
Legislature, withdrew and prevented the cleo
ton Of Senators to represent that State in
Congress. This excuse is worse than none.

The wigs tell us we ought to say nothing
because the democratic party in Tennessee
done as bad. A comparison Of the cases
will shew how unjust is such an assertion
In the Tennessee Legislature, one house had
majority Of democrats; consequently, when
they came to elect Senators they could not
a gree upon the men. The democrats offer
ed to divide, and elect one Of each party.
democrats proposed tha. the whole Legisla-
ture should resign, and submit the case to
the people. No, the wigs would not agree
to that; and the only thing they would
go into convention, which would give the
wigs small majority; thing unheard Of
in legislation, and which the democrats con-
tended was unconstitutional, inasmuch as

We do not undertake to justify the con-
duet of the Tennessee democrats, for we
not we'll enough acquainted with the merits
Of the case to pretend to do so {; but we do
denounce the movement in Ohio, as striking
deadly blow d, our form Of government.


The example is greatly to be regretted !;
for parties, like children, will follow bad
example quicker than good one, where
there is any thing to be gained by it.


The Tennessee Legislature finding it i'm

wigs have not been heard from yet. and
probably will not be.
