The Contest in the Eighth Sena.
lOrfsal District.

By reference to the legislative proceed
ings of yesterday, it will be seen that the
contest for the seat of HOMER G. JONES,
counties of Meigs, Gallia, Lawrence and
Vinton, came before the Senate in favor of
HENRY M. ONDERDoNK, Esq, by a memori-
al of the contestants in the case, Messrs.
P. A. SANNs and GEORGE HOUSE, electors
of Gallia county. -s
In view, of the recent declaration of
the people of the State OF Ohio, by
majority of over $4,000 against Negro
Suffrage, this case assumes an impor-
tance not to be overlooked. The Sen.
ate is now called upon to declare to its
constituency whether it will allow this YER
dict Of the people to be set aside and ig-
nored by continuing in his seat the gentle
man who owes his majority to illegal negro
votes, or whether it will admit to member
ship Mr.. ONDERDoNK, who received large
majority of the white and legal votes of
the district in which both gentlemen were
candidates.
When it is remembered that the majori-
ty of Mr.. JONES is but ten,. notwithstand-
ing two hundred negro votes were cast
for him; and when it is also remember
ed that these negro votes were nearly
all of them cast for the first time in
the political history of the State, un-
der instructions from the Radical State
Central Committee, and at an election,
when the very question of allowing the
negro to vote at all was to be decided,
it seems so barefaced and outrageous an at
tempt to choke off the expression of the
will of the white people of the State, that
his case scarcely deserves even the compli-
ment of consideration. sn a1so
It is hardly necessary here to argue the
unconstitutionality of negro voting. The
language of the Constitution is so plain
that he who runs may read.ss None but
"white male citizens of the United States''
shall be voters, says this instrument.
1t is true that judges of the Su-
preme Court of the State of Ohio have
been found who, in their transcendental
moments of inspiration, undertook a phy-
siological analysis of negro blood, and ar
rived at a result as astounding to science as
it was opposed to common sense and
received logic. They pronounced, with all
the authority that judicial eminence adds
to an opinion, that an animal with forty
nine and ninety-nine hundredths of black
blood in its veins is white animal. Thus
setting adrift the plain mathematical axiom
that part is not equal to the whole! But
there is an abidiug faith in the masses of
the people, and especially in the consist
ency of the Democratic members, that the
Legislature OF Ohio, as at present constitu-
ted, will construe the Constitution of the
State independently of the aids Of partisan
judges.
We have an abiding faith that the Senate
will give out no uncertain sound upon this
contest, between Messrs. ONDERDoNK and
JONES. H-F
