THE SP0FF0RD-KELL0G6 CONTEST. The following is a summary of the remarks of Mr. Hampton, of South Carolina,- in the U. S. Senate, last Thursday, on the contested election case between SpofFord, Democrat, and Kellogg, Republican, from Louisiana : Mr. Hampton said he was uot a lawyer, but proposed to discuss the matter on the generally recognized principles of justiceaudright, endeavoring to free himself from partisan feeling. There were cases, and this was one, ? I ok/Mtl/) Iott ooj/Iq coohnnol wnere ocunivis muuiu i aj >oiu? ownuoui prejudices and party allegiance. Fie did not impute to Spofford or his friends any improper motives, and therefore he was pained to differ from them and his party associates with whom he held so many views in coramc. They would at least credit him with sincerity in this difference. Mr. Kellogg's credentials were presented in 1877, and referred to the committee in March. Mr. Spofford's were presented in October. Both parties consented to the consideration of certain evidence taken by the other investigating committees. The Senate also passed a resolution authorizing the committee to take full evidence. There was no doubt that the committee has full authority to investigate all the merits of the case. Mr. Spofford at one time filed a request for more evidence, which was denied by the committee on the ground that sufficient testimony had been taken. This ruling Mr. Hampton thought unjust, but it was undoubtedly fully competeut for the committee to decide when to stop taking testimony. If a committee abuses its power in this respect an appeal can be taken to the Senate. The Senate at that time announced its deliberate jrrtgmnnt thn' Mr. Kellogg was entitled to his seat, yet it is now claimed that that action had no binding effect. Mr Hampton could not admit the principle that the settlement of the contested case on its merits could be overthrown at will upon the accession of a majority of a different party. If this case can ho rohoorH nrtw whflt is to nrevent its beiner WV I t t "t O heard again and again? In all litigation there must be some end of strife, and in the spirit of the law this case should rest where it is. Mr. Hampton then cited a number of authorities and precedents, in this country and England, to show that it was a well es tablished principle that when a case was once settled upou its merits it could not be reopened. The consequences of leaving titles to seats forever open to question were more disastrous than to have an occasional case wrongly settled. The whole weight of authority seemed to xMr. Hampton to show that the Senate acted judicially, and that its action was final. He had carefully avoided the political aspect of the case. He dared not trust himself to enter too deeply into that question. All his sympathies were with the contestant and with the State of Louisiana, which had suffered so great a wrong, but the Seriate had no power to redress that wrong. Time, the great healer, could alone assuage her wounds. He hoped the people of that State, with whom tiu nu'ii l,u/-l an mnnK in fvimmnn would not misconstrue his action. The Senator from Georgia (Hill) had expressed a hope that the Southern Senators / would not ignore their right in this case. That great Senator would hardly refuse to admit the honesty of motive iu those differ ing from the committee, when, as in Mr. Hampton's case, their sense of duty red them to sacrifice their personal feelings. The flag above them was that of all the States, and all were equal there. Southern Senators were not here, as might be inferred from the report of the minority of the committee, on probation temporarily, but as equal representatives of sovereign States. They had uo need to excuse or to explain their conduct, aud they would be guided rather by their acts than their professions. Let them do their duty and disregard the consequences. He thanked the Senator from Georgia for denying the rumor dishonorable to his Stale. He was jealous of her honor. He had fought on bloody fields with her gallant troops, side by side with those of her sister State of Georgia, led by the Senator's colleague, Gordon. They went where honor could be gained, but ^ . where personal safety could not be found. If iu those dark days, when it was not my good fi.rtune to enjoy what I now do, the beu- ' .? i i /? .1 n etot ot the precept and example or me oena tor from Georgia, I upheld as best I could the honor of my State, and trust that I shall s. not prove recreant to it now. The people of South Carolina can best judge how their honor is guarded here. And should it ever be ray misfortune to misrepresent or disappoint them in any way, by haviug the courage to follow my convictions, they will at least say: "He braved the shaft of censure and of shame, And on a held of honor pledged a soldier's lame."
