Chrisnan, who Contested Anderson's right to she
seat, full pay 9nd mileage as member, down 10
the time hrs .ase was decided. In that instance
the report of the Committee was strongly against
the contestont while in Williamsons case they
report that though the proof offered is not sufi-
cient TO Dust the sitting member, yet, they are
satisfied that the contest was brought in good
faith, that the contestant had good reason to be-
lieye he would be able to make good his charges,
and go Oh to apologize for his failure by citing
the causes thereof.
We have no doubt that Mr.. Williamson WAS
legally elected to represent the Hid District, and
from the testimony taken in the case, it is pretty
evident that, but for the flight Of certain witness
es and the refusal Of others to testify, lest their
answers might crimnate themselves, he would
have been able to establish his claim. We hope,
therefore, that when the report comes up Tor
action, the House will SO amend the resolution as
to give Mr. Williamson the same compensation
that has always been allowed in previous con-
tested cases. There is no doubt that the expense
ia some of these cases, where there was no real
ground of contest, ought not to have been paid.
Congress should pass law on this subject so
that all future contestants might be brought
under some uniform rule where the expense
could be limited. But until that is done it is
not right to pay enc man in full, and cut another
down, where there is no other reason assigned
than the mere will of the Committee. The dis
erection vested in the Committee does not war
rant them in acting upon any such shifting policy
us has been manifested in this case.

TIE Albany Erening Journal, though Astounding

can principles, has not yet ventured to explain its
formal declaration of the 22d of January, in favor
of the Crittenden Compromise. Perhaps it has
thought il prudent to seem TO abandon the compro-
missing policy. Perhaps it finds that the Repub-
hcaus cannot be transferred By so rapid pro-
cess TO the possession Of its intimate friends Dean
Richmond Erastus Corning, and the Central
Railroad in general. Blu. whatever the real
reason may be for its apparent change of 'front.'

the most cruel and loatbscme tyranny that ever
oppressed nation, having been defeated at the
ballot-box, has put forth its pronane'om'enfo''
and raised the standard Of civil war. Ard the
question now to be decided in the United States,
is whether the people and the Constitutional
Government will succumb to those who thus I'M
dertake by violence to reverse the decision Of a
peaceful and legal election, or whether they VIII
exhibit as much virtue as has been exhibited by
the Mexicans, and immovably insist on the
Union, the Constitution. and the Enforcement OF
the LAVE.

urgent representations that he would otherwise
