ton, for if, as we gather from Judge Story,
the popular will should be reflected by the
representative, it can, IN ali reason, make
no sort Of difference with the representative
how that popular viii has been made
known to him, whether by instruction, pc
titiOn or OtherWise-the important things
are to Ell0lc the will Of the pesple, and
knowing execute it. ANY other principle
is false to free government and subversive
Of the liberties Of the people.
And if the people have the right to in
struet their representatives with regard to
measures to be enacted, il is folly to say
they have not the same right TO instruct
with reference to men to be elected to the
United States Senate, who, though elected
by the Legislature, are none the less the
peoples representatives. There is no diff
ference in principle. The people-the in
terested party-have will In the matter Of
Senatorship. 1t is deep and wide, peryad-
ing every community Of our State. The
popular heart is throbbing with anx ety and
interest, and well it might, for in the Sen
ate Of the United States the people Of Ten
nessee want integrity and-what they have
not-statesmanship.
Whenever our legislators ascertain the
choice Of the majority Of the people Of our
State, let them, as faithful Representatives,
rise above the prejudiees Of the day, as
well as personal preferences, and give to
the people their choice, and abundant good
will follow. But fall back on the auto
cratic principle enunciatsd by Mr.. Adams,
established by despOts and advocated by
the UNION AND AMERICAN, and disregard
the strong will Of the people, as was done
four years ago, and the politics Of Tennes-
see are at once cast upon tempestuOus sea,
moved by the just indignation Of the PEG
pie. In that event, the responsibility will
be placed where it justly belongs.
