| Perhaps a more daring outrage upon
decensy has rarely been committed than
h that of the two decisions, by the legisla.
ture Of Virginia, in the case Of Mr.;
= Hoomes and Mr.. Moody, mentioned IN
the Courier of T hursdaylast. The same
question, point TO point, 1t Is stated, wa.
put to the legislature on the cases Of two
men, one a federalist, the other an anti
federalist, and decisions were given di
=~rectly in the teeth Of each other. In thu
case of Mr.. Hoomes, the question wa
put, "whether his having to contract fol
carrying the mail, qualified him from
holding his seat a. member Of tina
house and it was decided that II dfdho
disqualify him.--Nask IveH! He is de
mocrat. The very same question was pu
in the case Of Mr.. Moody, who. { Mar,
: 1ueM again is afederal republican. and
| il was then decided, by majority of rs
to 81, that his, Mr.. Moods's, having
the contract for carrying mails did dis
qualify him from holding his seat, andh.
4 was accordingly thrust out. -
