.KcIiOEx's seat.
Nashville Americana

The New York Times thinks the Democracy
may now declare the seat of Kellogg vacant.
AS Kellogg occupies a seat without d shadow
or a right or title, and represents the Sand
wich Islands as much as he represents. by
any legal sanction. Louisiana, we see no rea-
son why his seat was not long ago declared
vacant While favoring moderation in all
| things, and on the part Of Southern members
rigid Justice in contested cases, we regard
kelloRE's case as wholly without the shadow
OF excuse for his continuance In office and
that, too without regard to the questions
which have arisen as to the legality of the
election Of his Democratic opponent. We re-
gard Mr.. Spofford as entitled to his seat so far
rs we can see, but that may be a matter for
further proof. That Kellogg has no shadow
OF title to be In the Senate any more than II
he were declared Senator by street mob,
that he has not akRi never has had primn
faeie case. Is a Matter of public history.
There Is not plausible ground enough In his
favor to relieve the assertion of his right
from being plaih falsehood. This was the
position Of the American before, and it is It's
position now, without regard to the loss Of d
Senator from Ohio. Mr. Kellogg was elected
by Legislature which had no existence,
which left no record, which has no legal eX-
lstence IN the history Of Louisiana. He was
admitted by main strength of majority, and
nobody could complain II be were ousted by
the same means, much less when he has 20
shadow OF right to remain. His case was one
OF such peculiar atrOcity and Injustice that 1t
almost demands that the independent mem
ber in the Senate be delegated by the unani-
nous voice OF both parties as perfectly i'm
partial person to kick him out.

Parnell insisted that the farmers SHOULD re-

Tie Tuam meeting WAS opposed by the
clergy, the local merchants and town COM
missiOners, but the managers took very
effective step to have II largely attended.
"A notice with q drawing OF q wool card was
that any tenant farmer having horse md
falling to join III a cavalcnde would be sub
jected to the ordeal Of carding."
At the Milltown meeting one speaker said ::
