Resistance to Federal Authority.

Mr.. Kelly, of Pennsylvania, made a his
torical statement in the house day or two
since, in which he unconsciously painted
himself and the anti slavery men of his
state as no better than the Louisiana ban
ditti." He was speaking of Mr.. Whitelaw
Reds case, and arguing for the exemption
of q witness from arrest before retiring to
his home Mr.. Kelly illustrated his posi-
ton by recounting the incidents of fug-
tive slave oase in his own court when he
was Judge, without seeming to perceive
the bearing on the question which has tor
the last two weeks occupied so much OF
public attention. Judge Kelly's recital
was pertinent enough to Mr. Reds arrest,
but it was at the same time an unintended
justification Of violent resistance to Federal
authority when its exercise is thought to
be illegal. Judge Kelly relates that fu-
gitive slave, Jane johnson by name, was
summoned to his court as q witness in q
prosecution of her rescuers for theft in
stealing the clothes she wore when they
aided her escape. The United States dis
trict attorney and United States marshal
were IN court prepared to arrest the fugi-
tive, Jane johnson, when she should be
dismissed from the witness stand. Judge
Kelly determined that she should not be
arrested, and he took pains to find fifty
men prepared to sacrifice their lives in re,
sisting. the Federal officers. Representing
the state of Pennsylvania as one of he1
judges" said he. Il, on the evening pre-
ceding the trial, Intercepted the officers o.
the court as to who among them shrank
from laying down his life or taking the life
of another in viudication of the law Of
Pennsylvania" He excused some who
were unwilling to go to this extremity and
substituted others in their places. When

A Card.

To the Editor OF The Chicago Tribune: .
SPRINGFIELD, Jan. 26.-In your issue OF
yesterday, in an article referring to the ac-
ton of the speaker of the house, occurs
the following:
''Our informant says that the leaqing
Democrats, such men as Cummings, Hise,
Merritt. Herrington, and Armstrong have
affirmed that they cannot 90 on record as
sustaining him in his rulings"
To which we take occasion
TO say, in justice to Speaker
Haipes, that there is no founda-
ton for such report. So far as we are
concerned, we have never affirmed any
such thing and. further, Speaker Haines'
rulings have never been called in question
but once, and then the House sustained
him therein, s. Z. MERRITT.

lives TO yindicate the majesty Of Pennsyl.

arrest of that alleged fugitive slave" 1t
is surprising that Judge Kelley did not
perceive in making this recital that he was
furnishing Republican precedent for VIC

The Voice of Illinois in Regard 'e
Grants Louisiana Policy.


The following are the resolutions OF the
House Of Representatives of this state IN
regard to Grants Louisiana policy:
Resol,ed, By the house of representa-
.;vos of The state of Illinois, the senate con-
o,,rr;na herein: First, that we protest
oaa;nsf the interference by Federal author
;ty. or its civil or military officers, with the
local affairs of state, except in the man
ner prescribed by the constitution OF the
United States, and for the causes therein
named. -,
2. RESOLVED, That we regard the growth
of military influence within the United
States as fraught with danger, and espe
cially that a military officer should assume
to dictate to congress the laws to be passed
or T. the President the measures to d
adopted, and we denounce the recommen
dations of any officer of the army that con
gress or the President should violate th'
Constitution and the laws in order to pleas
anv norton of the people of the Unite'
States within the control OF the military.
3. Resolued, That, while we declare it
he the right of all citizens OF the Unite
States to be protected in their liberties
their property and their rights under tn
constitution, we condemn all revolutionar
actions or lawless organizations among tn
people of any state as dangerous to free II
stitutions, and in opposition to political an
social order.
4, Resolved, That we censure the Pre-
dent of the United States and his A.
ministration for maintaining and uphol
ing by Federal authority in the state
Louisiana the so-called Kellogg COVER
ment, in opposition to the will Of the pc
pie as expressed at the ballot-box, and e
pecialIy do we condemn the President i
permitting Federal troops to interfere vii

state on the 4th day Of January 1877
considering these acts illegal and DANCE

and subversive Of Republican institution

Referring to the conduct of Kellogg ana
of the Federal soldiery in forclbly eJectlne
from the Louisiana Legislature certain
men who claimed to have been legally
elected and legally admitted as members,
General Grant says: Whether it was
wrong for the Governor, at the request
'of the majority OF the members feturneo
s'as elected to the House, to use such
means as we're in his power to defeat
these lawless and revolution proceedings

| is, the question being 'debatable" one
have determined to put an end to thu
debate by throwing my sword in the scale
and I intend to keep it there as securit!
against the resumption of debate upol
such a doubtful question. The Galli
chieftain Brennus used his sword in tn
same way when he was negotiation for tn
