The wings in the Senate of Tennessee attempting
to play similar game with our friend Eastman OF the
Nashville Union that was played against by majority
of the late Senate of the United States The following is
extract from the proceedings of the Tennessee Senate
Mr. Wsener offered the following preamble and resolu
ton, which lies one day on the table, to wit:
Whereas in the Nashville Daily Union of October l6th
under the heading maryland Election" there printed
article in the words and figures following to wit;
"The democrats have elected their governor by more
than 900 majority and have made gain of IA
bers of the legislature far heard from The con-
gresona districts have been arranged that carry but
two Of six. The for governor the vote,
and shows that Maryland has left the foul party which
sides with the enemy in time of war"
And whereas said article, in effect denominaes the
orty of the members of this House constituting portion
of the ioul party" which sides with the enemy
war-whch charge is such denomination OF majority
of this House ought not to pass unnoticed-
BE therefore resolved, &c, That the editor, publ
and reporter OF the said Union newspaper be excluded from
the floor of the House OF Representatives.
The Senate have not yet disposed of this resolution
The wings will probably carry it out But we presume
that Mr.. Eastman will suffer by the penalty
than have done by the expulsion OF the Senate. The
sympahies OF free people will always be the side of
the freedom of the press.
