lie iSiniormed. that he has placed several
bad votes upon his poll. What must ne do
The answer is an obvious oue--he must re-
turn the Candidates who have the largest
number of votes on the face of the poll. and
leave it to the Legislature to cure the de-
feet. II any exists. But if the Legislature
aacbonad to register the returns of the sher-
III, when they are the best which he can
make undcr erisfigg circumstances, Of
course, when they arc ' legal and constitu-
tionai, no election, be it ever 50 impure or
irregular, can he corpccted. Aud the
Reuse OF Delegates may be Composed of ~
surpcrs. because not one of them MAY have
obtained majority OF the Soses of the peo-
pie.
lndeed it results frorR the very nature of
things, that Returns n,1y be legal aud cen
stitutional, that is, ,noy be the best whica
can be made Ont from the necessity of the
case. yet have no claim to the respect of the
Legislature. Admitting, therefore, that the
returns IF the Al'eghany Judges were both
consistent with the law and the constitu-
tion, (Which, however, we most solennly
deny. we contend that this return would in
no respect be binding upon the Legisla ture,
Ut its tendency was TO trsmple down the
first principle of representative governments.
But an acqu;esCence in this Return has been
productive CT this very effect.
1t is clear, as we'll as sacred, rule of re-
presentation that the majority should go
vern and in Maryland as in Virginia, no
delegate shonid Il Id seat who was uot &c
Iected by the ajority Of the free white
male citizens of the state qualified to vote,
who should poll at such election"
1t the Legislature are of opinion. on the
inspection of the returns, thst aiy man holds
his seat in despite ofihe will of his consti-
tuents, it becomes thci- duty ,c place the
baliot-box again into the hands of the PEG.
pie, to enable them to be represented by the
man of their voice.
a Legislature. tliat would sacrifce the
substance Of representation to form, from
s-otives of ambi ion or intrigue, is unworthy
of the confidence of the people.
The duty of the House of Delegates of Ma
ryland was aplain ope.-They ought to have
quashed the whole proceedings Of the jud,-
es, and issued p new Writ of election But
this measure would, not have suited the cleo
Zion OF LrUin Ipindcr, Esquire, and, of
course, was not adoDtet..
We call upon the people Of Maryland to
wash ont this stain upon the principles ct re-
presentation. The shade Of liberty will ne

has sus aimed. until the same precipitation
