The Election i'm Campbell and kenton
Counties to be Contested.

We are reliably informed that notices haye
been prepared aud are ready to serve on the
successful candidates for senators and repre-
sentatives in Campbell aud Kenton counties,
KY, contesting their right to the seats to
which they have apparently been chosen, be-
cause of the fraud, force and intimidation
used by the military at the polls.
This is right No people should counte-
nance or submit to the outrages committed in
these two counties ON last Monday, and we
rejoice to chronicle the above fact. We pre-
dict that the proof in these contested cleo
tions will establish, in legal form. a series
of the grossest acts of military tyranny and
usurpation and fraud upon the elective fran
chise that have been seen since the first con-
sui was made emperor of the French. We
rejoice also, to record the fact that the two
houses of the legislature of Kentucky will
have large democratic and conservative ma
jjorities. which ensures fair hearing of the
contests. and must result in the unseating of
men elected by such unlawful and foul means.
