As whatever relates 10 this subject ma
be irt resting to our readers at this time
we ccpy from the Ohio Sta tesman III,
following debate on the subject in the
Senate, December 81, Is44.
The resolution of The House for ,bt
election Of aJudgs OF the Supreme Court
one Major General Of the 18th division
Ohio militia, one Associate Judge foI
the county Of Fayetle--one Associate
Judge for LOFain county one . Associ-
ate Judge for Brown county --one AsSo.
ciaie Judge for Mercer county and one
Associate Judge for the county oI
WayRs.
Mr. Loudon moved to strike out the
words "one Associate Judge .fOr Brown
CeUnty."
M LoudOn said, although he was the
ostensible Representative ofBrown county
10 this branch Of the Legislature, yet he
was not consulted or even permitted 10
know any thing in regard TO the election
of.AssOciale Judges for his county,
senators from remote districts, that per
sOnally can know nothing Of the feelings
or wishes Of the people of Brown coOnly,
politely step forward aud relieve him from
ths duty Of attending TO his immediate
constiluenBin his own way.
In times gone by members we're per-
mitted 70 attend 10 their little local bU
siness ia their own way, and they were
answe rahle 10 their constituents for The
mlnner in which il was done. Il the
majority on this floor have resolved 10
tEampIe down this old democratic usage,
ndisIieve the member fIom respOnsi.
bility TO his constituents, then he would
have 10 submit, but not willingly he as
sured ReullemeR, and he would say TO
the m; iori,y, that should this principle be
applied hereafter 10 themselves he hoped
90 hear no bitter Wailing from them, OF
prescription, &c. Il the majority have
settled the question who is to be the fa'
yoEj,e, and who the disappointed indvid'
Uals, Tor this Office in his county he
would make no further opposition, but
cOnien, himself with giving an account OI
the whole transactiOn( 20 far as il cam 10
his knOwledge) to bis constituents.
Mr. BARLEY thought il due 10 the Sen
alor from Brown, that this election should
be -poslponed. He would ask the ChaiI
If il would be in order for the Senator
from Brown (Mr. Loudon) TO be heard at
the bar OF the TIN PAN.
The Chair replied such q motion
would not be in order.
Mr. Disney thought il strange that the
Senator from Richland should ask such q
question. Does he not know that il
is no, the business Of the Senator from
B,own 10 attend 10 the wishes Of The peo-
ple Of bis own c0nUiyf The majority
can, the msiOrity will attend 70 i, and i
he wishes to get a reconsideration, he
must pet some Of the majority % move
il in iin>pan. Ii may be better for the
public inletesl--it may be that.lhe Sena
Tor, knows the wishes of the people ht
represents that does not suit iht
majority. They must be presume t.
know, better lhtn any man in Brown
county, what suits them.
TThe Speaker informed Mr. Disney
tha she question vas on striking out.
Mr. Disney replied that he knew that
and YVES speaking directly 10 the question
end trying TO convince the Senator from
Brown Of the utter impossibiliiy OtgettinI
his indpe slrnCk out, after il had beel
tin panned.
Nj. Kelley Of franklin, sSid, that i
tin.pahning,ihe majority had not adopte
one single rule that had not previ
ously bson adopted BY the other parry. :
He'd The democratic party taken out pa
tent right f0r lin. panniug, then the wing
might be prosecuted for an infringement
Ofthe patent. but no patent right was Sc
cured, and hence they we're not liable
3 prosecution.
MIX. then proceeded at some lenel
10 defend the practice Of lin,panninl
arisine as he said from the necessity 9
the cess.
Nj Wood would inform the Senate
from FrankIin, that il lhs democratic Pc
u had failed 10 take out patent for "
pannina, they would de 90 on the secOl
Tussaay of October next. =.
