The case of JMr. JWckenzic, who has been several times elected to, and expelled from, the Parliament of Upper Canada, presents a remar kable instance of the exercise of arbitrary pow er in a legislative body. Mr. M. was elected in October, 1830, as a representative in Parliament from the county of York, and in December, 1831, he was expelled bv a party vote, for having published in the pa per of which he was editor, strictures upon some of its members. In January 1832, he was re elected by nearly a unanimous vote; and, with out any additional cause, again expelh-d i the same month. In February, lie was again re elected, and re-expelled in November ; tn the same month he was once mure re-elected, and in February, 1833.

The article is headed “Cherokee Sovereignty vs. State Sovereignty.'’ and concludes with a threat, (as we understand it.) that the Governor will counteract the process of the Court, and expects the people to sustain him. Os the merit? of the case, we know nothing, and will say nothing ; we are not at all disposed to forestall public opinion, but are wiling to let the judicial tribunals settle the question. Os Judge Hooper, we will say, that We believe bun to be deliberate and firm, not to be alarmed at the scurvy vapouring of those who have made themselves notable, by changing their political complexion for Office sake— and are now making themselves ridiculous, by their servility to their adopted masters. Equally vain and contemptible are the threats of Executive interference. The people are too sensible, to be excited to resistance to the Judiciary, even by emanations from “ ll'ilson Governor." W e look upon the Standard as being used on this occasion as a mere “feeler’'—il the thing takes, we shall soon have something fiom tiie Federal i nion. It was too dangerous an ex periment, to risk the reputation of the latter print,in break ing the ice, and therefore his “Lumpkinship ofGeorgia” puts forward the subservient Standard, to feel the public pulse—to ascertain whether the movement would be popuiarol not, well knowing that il the experiment tails, itrequir d nothing, but one of those simple somersets, wli ch he of the Standard, is so capable of making, to throw himself out of the difficulty ; and even if he should be demolished, it would be no great loss, for he is but a new recruit in their ranks, and one of the Swiss nt that. This attempt on the part of the Standard, and ah its coadjutors even back to the throne itself, to overawe and intimidate the Judicial tribunals of the State, and to excite the people Io resistance to the laws, is quite in chaiacter with tlie conduct ot those who arc cinstantlv trumpeting themselves forth, as the exclusive fr ends of . nion, good order and the Constitution. And to cap the climax ot impudence and inconsistency, .17r. Standard speaks of il as a contest, between Cherokee Sovereignty and .Stale .Sovereignty !

The 1 State Right’s Party were entitled, from the votes > polled and counted, to a Clerk of the Inferior : Court and Ihree Justices of the same. At thd Allatdona precinct the only acting Justice of > the peace was a candidate for Justice of the In . ferior Court, and presided, with the proper num ; ber of freeholders, over the Election at that ' piecinct. At that place the three State Rights candidates above retered to received a majority of the votes, which gave them the ascendency in the Election, and which w hen stricken off left the three Judges elect, in the minority, and a tie between the Clerks of the Inferior Court. This is a plain simple statement of facts, so far as they occurred here—the balance, I ap prehend, lies between Mr. Lumpkin and his Prime Minister of Indian affairs, for Cass coun ty. It i- at least certain that the latter Gentle man, in company it is said, with a Justice of the - peace, of pulled nose memory, made an early start to the seat of Government, and on their return, brought commissions for an entire Lumpkin Court, with the information that the votes given in in the district ut Allatoona, had been thrown , nut of the return, and of a tie between the can didates for Clerk of the inferior Court. I do not mean to discuss the propriety of a candidate’s presiding at his own election. Those who arc curious on that subject, can re fer to the general law regulating elections at , piccincts. to be found in Foster’s Digest, and to the law ot 1832, (pamph.) creating election pre cincts in this county amongst others. In the law first reiered to, they will find that it is made the duty of Justices of the peace to preside over elections in the various precincts, and that no provision is made f. r the existence ot such a . case as the one before us. It may also be ob ( served tha» th election precincts created by (he . Statuti* of 1832, come under the provisions and regulations of the Statute first mentioned, and I that this act (1832,) is assented to by Wilson . Lampkin, as Governorofthe State. The whole [proceeding, therefore, was clearly within and under the authority of these Statutes, and if there is delect which Mr Lumpkin did not discover when he gave his assent to the bill, creating it tlie Law of the lan , let the blame rest where it justly belongs. But even if Mr. Lumpkin did believe that the election, in that precinct, was irregularly con ducted, w hen does he find it ins duty, or whence derive the right to deprive a majority of the pro ;!■■ <d ( ass county of their claim to Judges of th." inferior < ourt ! How is he authorized to sliift t I result of elections ? 'I here are prece ; dents, I believe, when affidavits of illegal votes sufficient to change the result of an election, ' have b en forwarded to the Executive on which anewelectCn has been ordered; but Ido not call to mind a single instance where a Governor I. s appointed his own p ditical friends to offices, I to w‘ k h others have been elected by the votes , of the people. Lven if there had been no Pre cedent, a sense of delicacy, or of honor, rni"ht i have prompted Mr. Lumpkin to a different . course. Perhaps however he may have “as sumed the entire r sponsibility” m this case, gem lomdy tlnowing himself into the breach, to r save devoted Gass county from her own infatu- I i ation, in < le< ting officers ofdiflerent political no ; trims from Inmsclf. ft may have been a con . scientious duty he owcii to this people, to save them from the curse of having public justice admmist' red at the hands “rd rebels and trai t >rs;” some su< h benevolent spirit must have moved him, fm the other candidates were cc tairJy not implicated in the sin of him who p ; sided, and might have expected a little of tn«. 4 " Cjra utivi clemency” for which Mr. Lumpkin is so rr markable. If it is indeed true that the Governor of Gccr iria has devote d his political enemies to exter mination, and that he fosters the lowest party J intrigues in petty < ounty elections, to sustain base party cn is, then how low are we sunk! while the State sleeps over her lost honor and insulted dig >ity, these corruptions still arc nour i-hed in the very seat of her existence, and arc istnbut'd to ..11 th< parts, stamping her own <b gracation still more deeply— how long will Georgia sleep !
