THE aLOHR,s ALARM LEST THE COY.


EMINENT SHOULD BE DISSOLVED,


In the editorial remarks Of the Globe on Mon
day evening, upon which we commented yester-
day, the writer undertook to excite alarm at the
proposition of the Wings to exclude from the
House those who were not elected according 20
law; and, for the purpose of showing what a
lamentable state Of things such course would
lead to if carried out, puts the supposition that
the four States that have disregarded the law in
electing their representatives were the four
largest States of the Union, instead Of four small
ones; in that case he says, minority would ex-
clude majority, and "woud absolutely dissolve
the Government, under the pretext of maintain
ing it,"


We sympathise with the editor Of the Globe
in his un1eigned alarm at the thought of the
Government being dissolved /; but we have looked
in vain for an expression Of any similar feeling
of apprehension that such should be the conse-
quence of State Legislatures refusing to elect
Senators, as in the case of Tennessee, which
was unrepresented in the Senate Of the twenty
seventh Congress- Suppose the other States to
have followed her example, where would be the
Government In both cases, that of Tennessee,
and that of the four States now under considera-
tion in the House, the Globes own party acted
in utter disregard and defiance of law. Is there
nothing alarming in such wholesale notification !?
