AM FOR TIIR SUFFERERS AT RIMISIOND.
.-Our suffering brethren in Libby Prison will soon
:realize the munificent charity and noble-hearted
:appreoiation of the good people of. Philadelphia.
Tkey will have no reason to repine at ingratitude or
cruel neglect. Since it was publicly proclaimed,
through the city newspapers, that the brave feilowa
who fought so nobly at Gettyiburg, and other bloody
'hetes, were stricken with hunger and disease, their
Intintic Mends at home were at once aroused, and
the past few days have witnessed such exhibitions
of kindliness and devetion that are calculated
to fill every bosom with pride and fervor. Our city
has never been backward in any Call upon her for
good purposes. Foremost in deeds of philanthropy
as in patriotism, she has done for the soldier what
few other cities have scarcely approached. Who
could say there could have been faltering now,
when an appeal so urgent and so doleful is heard
from the fearful cells of Richmond? We are toil
by exchanged prisoners and eye.witnesses, that the
scenes of destitution and hunger daily presented at
Libby Prison exceed in horror the records of any
treatment ever awarded by civilized nations to their
prisoners of war. Letters are daily received, in
which the men urgently appeal to their friends at
home to send them the necessaries of life. They do
not in any instance reveal their true condition, for
all communications must be submitted to rebel
supervision. They contain, htwever, pathetic and
touching words, begging that in our luxurious hap-.
- Meese we bestow a thought upon the suffering
prisoners. Right nobly is their appeal being an
swered, and .may it long continue so. The Chris-
Ban Commission have taken in charge the respon
sibility of having all the contributions of Philadel
phia safely delivered within the rebel lines. That
organization has done herculean service 'in the
past, in behalf of the sick and wounded soldiers.
Before the war; he men composing it, organized as
the Xoung ltileu's Christian Aseociation, rendered
snore or less valuable service in the cause of religion.
It is questionable., if comparisons of effeets can be
made, whether that organization ever expended its
ereigiee In a more Christian, humanitarian, or pro.
'Arable manner than in that to which it has now de-
Noted itself. They have the good wishes of the com
munity, and they ought to have its more substantial
assistance. Let'us not forget the suffering prisoners
at Richmond. 40.
PERSONAL.—It is gratifying to the nil
therm friends of Mr. Sohn Cr. Butler to notice that
he has been appointed to the responsible position
of chief coiner of the United States Mint in this
city. Mr. Butler has for two years held the position
of assistant coiner, and this promotion is a deserved
tribute to the manner with which he has performed
the duties of that office. He is entirely competent
to discharge the Unties of chief. The position was
=tide vacant by the resignation of Mr. Lewis R.
Brosnan, who, in the recent election, was chosen by
the Union people of Philadelphia to the office of Re
corder of Deeds.
REOPENING OF A CHURCIT.—The reopen
ing of the Church of the Evangeliats, Catharine
street, near Seventh, will -be commemorated by an
appropriate celebration, this evening, in the lecture.
room. Addresses will be delivered, accompanied by
a concert of sacred music, after which the church
will be brilliantly illuminated and thrown open to
visitors. The formal opening of the church for divine
service will take place on Sunday, 15th inet., when
iNehop Potter and other distinguished clergymen
Will take part in the exercises.
A NATIONAL BAINK IN FRANKFORD.—The
business men of Frankford have taken initiatory
steps towards the establishment of a national bank
in their midst. The project has met with high favor,
and subscriptions are so Wive that the committee
having the matter in charge announce that stock
can be purchased only for a few days More. The
subscribers hold a meeting, oa Friday evening, at
Wright's Institute, to take measures for an Imme
diate organization.
TEANSFEREED.—Tte Rev. A. G. Tho
mas formerly Chaplain of the U. S. Army Hospital,
at Fifth and Buttonwood streets, has been transfer-
Ted to the Convalescent Hospital, Sixteenth and
Filbert streets. Chaplain Thomas has labored
faithfully in preaching the word of life, and admini

TICE SUBSCEIPTION AGENT reports the
stale of $1,107.250 in five twenties yesterday. Tee
deltveriee of bonds in moderate amounts are still
made on the receipt of aunsoriptions. The. daily re
ceipts, from the first, average over half a million
dollars; and notwithstanding the reported scarcity
of money, the people at large are continuing their
aubsoriptions...
STEAM CARRIAGE.—The steam carriage
of which there was a private exhibition at the
Point Breeze Park on Tuesday afternoon, passed
through a number of the principal streets yesterday.
'The people were somewhat amused as well as in
lerested at the novelty. A satisfactory result was
attained. Horses were not frightened at the ma

•Mrsmßlous.-Mr. James Evans, who re
aides on South street, near. Sixth, was found in an
insensible condition on the sidewalk a few rods from
his residence. He had a severe wound in the back
of his head. Whether this resulted from a fall or
otherwise has not been satisfactorily ascertained.

THE CONSCRIPTION ACT DECLARED TO BR lINCONSTI
TUITIONAL BT A MAJORITY or THE COUAT—JIIS
.TIORS STRONG AND READ DISSENT.
On the loth inst. the court Sitting at Harrisburg,
- rendered judgment in the cases of Kneedler and
other's, against the provost marshals of this city, in
"favor of the complainants, granting the preliminary
injunctions asked for. The cases were argued in
this city, before a full bench, by ceunsel for the coin
.
plainents only, the United States not being repre
sented. They came up on 'bills in equity, filed by
the complainants, who were drafted men of this
city, praying for injuoctions to restrain the provost
marshals from proceeding with the draft, the ground
being the alleged unconstitutionality of the consorip
lion aut. The opinion of the majority, viz: Chief
Justice Lowrie, and Justices Woodward and Thomp ,
son, was delivered by Chief Justice Lowrie—Jus
flees Strong and Read both dissent. The opinions
are too lengthy for our columns, buts brief abstract
may not be uninteresting. The opinion says :
That Constitution, adopting our historical expe
rience recognizes two sorts of military land forces—
the militia - and the army, sometimes called the regu
lar, and sometimes the standing army—and dele—
gates to Congress power "to raise and support
armies," and "to provide for calling forth the
militia to execute the laws of the Union,
suppress
insurrections, and repel invasions." But though
Bela sterol Congress is intended, to provide means
for suppressing the rebellion, yet it is apparent
that it is not founded on the power of "calling
forth the militia," for those who are drafted under
it have not been armed, organized, and disciplined
- under State officers, as the Constitution requires.—
* Art 1,8, 10.
It is, therefore, only upon the power to raise
armies that this act can be founded, and as this
power is undisputed, the question is made to turn
on the auxiliary power to pass "all laws which
shall be necessary and proper" for that purpose.—
Art. 1,8, 18. It is therefore a question of the mode
of exercising the power of (raising armies. Is it ad
missible to call forced recruiting a ' , necessary and
proper" mode of exercising this power I
The fact of rebellion would not seem to make it
so, because the inadequacy or insufficieney of the
permanent and active forces of the Government for
smolt a case is expressly provided for - by the power
to call forth the usually dormant terse, the militia ;
and that, therefore, is the only remedy allowed, at
least until it has been fully tried and failed, accord.
ing to the maxims, expressio unius est arclusto &terms,
and expretsum _tacit cessarl taciturn. No other mode
can be necessary' and proper so long as a provided
mode remains untried ; and the force of these max
ims is increased by the express provision of the Con
" Mutton, that powers not granted are reserved, and
none shall We implied from the enumeration of those
which are reserved. _Amendments 9, 10. A granted
lolled) , for a given ease would therefore seem to ex
• elude all ungranted ones. Or, to lay the least, the
militia not having been called forth, it does not and
cannot appear that another mode is necessary for
suppressing the rebellion.
Though, therefore, this act was passed to provide
means for suppressing the rebellion, yet the authori
ty to pass it does not depend upon the fact of re
• hellion. That fact authorizes forced levies of- the
Militia under their own State officers, but not for
the regular army.
But It is not important that Congress may have
assigned an insufficient reason for the law. If it
may pass such a law for any reason we must sustain
it for that reason. The question then is, may Con
gress, independent of the fast of rebellion or lova
alma, make forced levies in order to recruit the regu
lar army,
If it may, it may do so even When no war exists
or threatens, and make this the regular mode of re
cruiting. It may disregard all considerations of
age, (occupation, profession, and official station; it
May take our Governors, legislators, heads of State
departments, judges, sheriffs, and all inferior officers,
and all our clergy and public teachers, and leave
!the State .entirely disorganized; it may admit no
binding rule of equality or proportion for the pro.
Iteotion of individuals, States, and sections. In all
other matters of allowed forced contribution to
the Union, duties, imports, exercises, and direst
taxes, and organizing and training the militia, - the
rule of uniformity, equality or proportion, is fixed
in the Constitution. It could not be so in calling
out the militia, because the emergency of rebellion •
or-invasion does not always allow of this.
But for the recruiting of the army no such reason
' exists ; and yet, contrary to the role of other cases,
if it may be recruited by force, we find no regulation
or limitation of the exercise of the power so as to
hrevent it from being arbitrary and partial, and
ence we infer that such a mode of raising armies
was not thought of and was not granted. If any
such mode had been in the intention of the fathers
of the Constitutien, they would certainly have sub
iected it to some rule of equality or proportion, and
to some restriction in favor of State rights, as they
bare done in other eases of compulsory contribu.
Bons to Federal neeereenies. We are forbidden by
the Constitution from inferring the grant of this
power from it not being enumerated as reserved;
and the rule that what is not granted isreserved
operates in the same way, and is equivalent to the
;largest bill of rights.
But even. if it be admitted that the regular army
tray be recruited by forced levies, it does not seem
to me that the constitutionality of this act is deci
ded. The question would then take the narrower
Abria. Is this mode of coercion constitution./
It seems to me that it is so essentially incompatie
Pie with the provisions of the Constitution relative
to the militia that it cannot be. On this subject, as
on all others, all powers not delegated are reserved.
:This power is not expressly delegated, and cannot
rte impliedly so, if incompatible with any reserved
or granted powers. This is not only the express
rule of the Constitution, but it is necessarily so ; for
we know the extent to which State functions were
-abated by the Federal Constitution only by the ex
.prese or necessarily implied terms of the law or
compact in which the abatement is provided for.
And this is the rule in regard to the common law; it
is changed by statue only so far as the expression of
the statue requires it to'be.
Now, the militia was a State institution before
the adoption of a Federal Constitution, and must
continue so, except so far as that Constitution
changes it; that is, by subjecting it, under State
Officers, to Organization and training according to
one uniform Federal law, and to be called forth to
suppress insurrection and repel invasion, when the
aid of the Federal Government is needed, and it
needs this force. For this purpose it is a Federal
force ; for all others it is a State force, and it is
called in the Constitution "the militia of the seve.

For the jtOitdiction of this Court to set aside an
act of Congress as unconstitutional, and to grant the
•'Tsar Pinsted for I refer myself ee the views of the
Chief Justice in the opinion he has jest delivered
in these cases, and I come at Once to the Pomotitll'
lion al question.
The act begins with a preamble which recites the
existing insurrection and rebellion against the au
thority of the United States, the duty of the Go
vernment to suppress insurrection and rebellion, to
guaranty to each State a republican form of govern
ment, and to preserve the public tranquility, and de
clares that for these high purposes a militate force
is indispensable, " toeaite anti support which all
persons ought willinglrto contribute," and that no
service is more praiseworthy and honorable than
the maintenance of the Constitution and Union
and then goes on to provide for the enrolling of all
the able-bodied male citizens of the United States,
and persons of foreign birth, who have declared their
Intention to become eitizensebetween the ages of
twenty-one and lorty five years, and these able
bodied citizens and foreigners, with certain excep
tions afterward - enumerated, are declared "the na
tional forces;" and made liable to perform military
duty when called out by the President. The act di
vides the country into military districts, correspond
ing with the Congressional districte, provides for
provost marshals and enrolling boards, and regu
lates the details of such drafts as the President shall
order to be made from the national forcers so enrolled.
The payment of $3OO excuses any drafted person, so
tbat it is, in fact, a law providing fora compulsory
draft- or conscription of such citizens as are unwil
ling or unable to purchase exemption at the stipula
ted price. It is the first instance, in our Watery, of
legislation forcing a great public burden' on the
poor. Our State legislation, which exempts men
who are not worth more than $3OO from paying their
own debts, is in striking contrast with this conscrip
tion law, which devolves upon such men the burden
Which belongs to the whole'" national forces," and
to which "all persons ought willingly to contri
bute." This, however, is an objection to the spirit
of the enactment rather than to its constitution
ality.
Unless there is more magic in a name than has
ever been supposed, this conscript law was intended
to act upon the State militia, and our question is,
therefore, wether Congress has power to impress or
draft the militia of the State. I cannot perceive
what objection can be taken.to this statement of the
question, for merely it will not be argued that calling
the militia national forces, makes them something
else than the militia. If Congress did not meauto
draft the militia under this law, where did they ex
pect to find the national forces? "All able-bodied
•white male citizens, between the ages of twenty-one
and forty five years, residing in this State, and not
exempted by the laws of the United States," with
certain specified. exceptions,
constitute our State
militia: Will it be said that the conscript law was
not intended to operate on •theael I think it will
not. Then, if it does touch, and was framed and
designed to draft this very class of citizens, no pos
sible objection can be taken to the above statement
of the question we have to decide.
I, therefore, repeat the question with great Pon&
dence in its accuracy, has Congress the constitu
tional power to impress or draft into the military
service of the United States the militia men of
Pennsyl t
This question has to be answered by the Condi
tution of the United States, because that instru
ment, framed by deputies of the people of the States
and ratified and put into effect by the States them
selves in. their respective corporate capacities, dele
gates to Congress all the powers that body can exer
cise. Theme delegations are either express or such
implications as are essential to the execution of-ex
pressly delegated powers.
There are but three provisions in the Constitution
of the United States that can be appealed to in sup
port of this legislation. In our ordinary editions
they stand numbered as clauses 13, t 6, and 17 of the
iectien of Act 1, of the Constitution:
"13. Congress shall have power to raise and sup
port armless, but no appropriations of money to that
use shall be for a longer term than two years.
-
"16. Congress shall have power to proyide for
calling forth the militia to execute the laws of the
Union, to suppress insurrections and repel lava
dons.
"17. Congress shall have power to provide for or
ganizing, arming and disciplining the militia s and
for governing such part of them as may be employed
in the service of the United States, reserving to the
States respectively the appointment of the officera,
and the authority of -training the militia according
to the discipline prescribed by Congress n
"To raise armies "—these are large words. What
do they mean? There could be no limitation upon
the number or size of thenarmies to be raised, for all
possible contingencies could not be foreseen; but our
question has not reference to numbers or size, but to
the mode of raising armies. The framers of the Con
stitution, and the States who adopted it, derived
their ideas of government principally from the ex
ample of Great Britain—certainly not from any of
the more imperial and despotic Government 3 of the
earth. What they meant to make was a more free
Constitution than that of Great Britain—taking
that as a model in some things—but enlarging the
basis of popular rights in all respects that would be
consistent with order and stability. They knew
that the British army had generally been recruited
by voluntary enlistments; stimulated by wages, and "
bounties, and that the few instances of impressment
and forced conscriptions of land forces had met with
the disfavor of the Feglish nation, and had led to
preventive Statutes. In 1104, and again in 1707, con
scription bills were attempted in Parliament, but
laid aside as unconstitutional. During the Ameri
can revolution a statute,
19 George 111., C. 10, per
mitted the impressment of "idle and disorderly
persons not following - any lawful trade, or having
some substance sufficient for their subsistence," and
this was as far as English legislation had gone when
our Federal Constitution was planned. Assuredly
the framers of our Constitution did not intend to
subject the people of the States to a system of con
scription which was applied in the mother country
only to paupers and vagabonds. On the contrary,
I infer that the power conferred on Congress was
the power to raise armies by. the ordinary English'
mode of voluntary enlistments. -
The people were justly jealous of standing armies.
Hence they took Away most of the war power from
the Executive, soMere, under monarchical forms,
it
generally-resides, and vested it in the legislatiyede
partment, in one branch of which the States have
equal representation, and in the other branch of
which the people of the States are directly repre
sented, according to their numbers. -To these repre
tentative' of the States and the people, this power
of originating war was committed, but even in their
hands it was restrained by thelimitation of biennial
appropriations for the support of the armies they
might raise. 01 course, no armies could be raised or
supported which did not command popular approba
tion, and it was rightfully considered that voluntary
enlistments would never be wanting to recruit the
ranks of such an army. The war power, existing
only for the protection of the people, and left, as far
as it was possible to leave it, in their own hands,
was incapable of being used without their consent,
and, therefore, could never Imaguish for enlistments.
They would be ready enough , to recruit the ranks of
any army they deemed necessary for their safety.
Thus, the theory of the Constitution placed this
great power, like all other governmental powers,
directly upon the consent of the governed.
• The theory itself was founded on free and fair
elections—which are the fundamental postulate of
the Constitution. If the patronage and power of
the Government shall ever be employed to control
popular elections; the nominal representatives of
the people may cease to be their real representatives, '
and then the armies which may be raised may not
so command public confidence as to attract the ne
cessary recruits, and then conscript laws and other
extra constitutional expedients may become neces.
Nary to fill the ranks. Bat Governmental interfe
rence with popelar elections will be subversion of
the Constitution, and no constitutional argument
can assume such a possibility.
Could the State Government strike at the war
power,of the Federal Government without endan-
gerieg every man's rights? In view of the existing
rebellion, no man would hesitate how to answer this
question, and yet is it not equally apparent that
when the Federal Government usurps a power over
the State militia Which Was never delegated, every
man's domestic rights (and they are thoee which
touch himenost closets ) are equally endangered 7 - •
The great vice of the conscript law is; that it is
founded on an assumption that Congreas may take
away not the State rights of the citizen, but the
security and foundation of hie State rights. • Aad
how long is civil liberty expected to last, after the .
securities of liberty are destroned t The Con
stitution of the United States committee' the liber
ties of the citizen in part to the Federal Govern
ment, but expressly reserved to the States, and the
people of the States, all it did not delegate. It gave
the General Government a standing army, but left
to the States their militia. Its purposes in , all
thin balancing of powers were wise and good, but
this legislation disregards these distinctions, and
upturns the whole system of government when it
converts the State militia into "national. forces,"
and claims to Me and govern them as such.
Times of rebellion, above all others, are the times
When we should Stick to our fundamental law, lest
We drift into anarchy on one hand, or into despotism
on the other. The great sin of the present rebellion
consists in violating the Constitution whereby ever?
man's civil rights are exposed to sacrifice. Unless
the Government be kept on the foundation of the
Constitution, we imitate the sin of the rebels, mad
thereby encourage them, whilst we weaken and dis
hearten the friends of constitutional order and go
vernment. The plaintiffffs in these bills have good
right, I think, -as citizens of Pennsylvania to' cam
plain of the act in question, not only on the grounds
I have indicated, but on another to 'which I will
briefly allude.
The 12th section provides that the drafted person
shall receive ten days' notice of the rendezvous at
'which he le to report for duty, and the 13th section
enacts " that If he fella to report himself in pursu
ance Of such notice without furnishing a substitute
or paying the required sum therefor, he shall be
deemed a deserter, and shall be arrested by the pros
vest marshal, and sent to the nearest military post
for trial by (meet martial." The only qualitication
to which this proyleion is subject, is- that, upon pro-
per showing that he is not , able to do military duty,
the board of enrolment may relieve him from the
draft.
One of the complainants, Kneedler, hail set forth
the Dottie that was served on him in pursuance of
this section, and by which he was informed that un
less he appeared on a certain day, he would be
"deemed a deserter, and be subject to the penalty
prescribed therefor, by the rules and articles of war."
I believe the penalty of desertion by the military
code is any , corporeal punishment a court-martial
may choose to inflict, even to that of being put to
death.
Can a citizen be made a deserter before he has be
come a soldier ? Has Congress the constitutional
power to authorize provost marshals, after drawing
the name of a freeman from a wheel and serving him.
with a ten• daps notice, to seize and drag him before .
a court martial for trial under military law ? This
question touches the foundations of personal liberty.
In June, 1216, the Throne of England and their
,retainers "IS 'numerous host, encamped upon the
grassy pain of Runnymede," wrung from King
John that great Charter which declared, among
other securities of the rights and liberties of Eng
lishmen, that "no,freeman shall be arrested or im
prisoned, or deprived of his freehold or his liberties
or free customs, or be outlawed or exiled, or in any
manner harmed, nor
,will we (the King) proceed
against him, nor send any one against him by force of
arms, unless according to ithe sentence of, his peers
(which includes trial by jury) or the common law of
England." Here was laid the strong foundation
of the liberties of the race to width, we be.
force of the, States that we may say that this act
covers the whole ground of the militia and ex
hausts it entirely. It is, in fact, in all its features,
a militia for national, instead of State purposes,
though claiming justification only under the power
to lain armies and accidentally under the fact Of
the rebellion.
It seems to me this is an unauthorized substitute
for the militia of the States. If valid, it completely
snuffle, for the time being, the remedy for insurrec
tion provided by the Constitution, and substitutes a
new and unprovided one. Or, rather, it takes that
very State force, strips it of its officers, deeming it of
its organization, and reconstructs its elements under
ailifterent authority, thOugh under somewhat simi
lar forms. If this act se law, it is supreme law, and
the States have no militia out of the class usually
called to militia duty ; for the whole class is appro
priated as a national force under this law, and•no
State can make any law that is inconsistent with it.
The State militia is Wiped out if this act is valid,
except so far as it may be permitted by the Federal
Government. If Congress may thus,
under its
power to raise armies, constitute all the State
militia men into "national forces" as part of the
regular army, and make them "liable to perform
duty in the service of the United States when callel
out by the President," I cannot see that it may
not require from them all a constant military train
ing under Federal officers as a preparation for the
greatest efficiency when they shall be so walled out,
and then all the State militia and civil officers may
be put into the ranks and subjected to the command
of such officers as the President may appoint, and
every one would then see that the sonstitutional
State militia becomes a mere name. The Constitu
tion makes it, and the men in it, a national force in
a given contingency, and in a prescribed form, but
this act makes them so irrespective of the constitu
tional form and contingency. This is the substantial
fad, and I am not able to re f ine it away.
And it seems to me that this act is unconstitution•
al, because it plainly violates the State systems in
this, that it incorporates into this new national force
every State civil officer, except the Governor, and
this exception might have been omitted, and every
officer of all our social institutions, clergymen, pro
fessors, teachers, superintendents of hospitals, &0,,
and degrades all our State generals, colonels, Eas.
jors, &c., into Common soldiers, and thus subjects all
the social, civil, and military organization of the
States to the Federal power to raise armies, poten
tially wipis them out altogether, and leaves the
States as defenceless as an ancient city with its walls
broken down. Nothing is left that has any constitu ,
(fond right to stand before the will of the Feder:el
Government.

ject to the rules and articles of war, all their coin
momlaw rights of personal freedom being for the
time suspended. But when are militia men in actual
service? When they have been notified of a draft?
Judge Story, in speaking of the authority of Con.
greets over the militia, says : " The question when
the authority of Congress over the militia becomes
exclusive must essentially depend upon the fact
when they are to be deemed in the actual servivs of
the United States; There is a clear distinction be
tween calling forth the militia and their being in
actual service. These are not contemporaneous
acts, nor necessarily identical in their constitu
tional leanings. The President is not commander
in-chief of the militia, except when in actual ser
vice, and not merely when they are ordered into
service. They are subjected to metial lato only whet
in ochre, service, and not raerelg lehen called fi,rik ber,
acts on the subject, Manifestly
they have obeyed th e call, The gate of 1788.

What is martial law? Blackstone or Sir Matthew
Hale tells us "ibis built upon no settled primal ples,
but is entirely arbitrary in its decisions, is in truth
and reality no law, but something Indulged, rather
than allowed, as law." The unrestrained will of
one or a number of men, then, is the rule which the
argument substitutes for the Constitution. It is of
_..nnuence that the will thus set up forsupreme re co ' - whom a majority of the people

majority can only choose men to administer to the

recognized by law, have no more.
right to establish a
despotism than a minority would .I.!4ve. But may
majorities or minotitio 'set - aside the t.7.n't itl i ti °a
under pressure of rebellion and insurrection',
As the Constitution anticipates and provides Tor
such calamities, it is a reproach to its wisdom to
say that it is .inadequate to such emergencies. No
man has any historical right to east this reproach
upon it. No current experience proves it. It never
can be proved except by an unsuccessful use of the
legitimate powers of the Constitution against re
bellion, and then the thing proved will be that the
instrument needs amendment, which its machinery
is flexible enough to allow. Even snob a melancholy
demonstration would do no more than point out neces
sary amendments; it would not surrender the people
to the arbitrary will of anybody. Presidents or Con
gressmen are only servants of the people, to do their
will, not as that -will may be expressed under pas
sion or excitement, but as it stands recorded in the
Constitution. It is the Constitution indeed which
makes them Presidents and. Congressmen. They
have no more power to set up their will against the
Constittuion than so many private citizens would
,have. Outside of that they are only private citi
zens.
There are other features of the conscript law that
deserve criticism, but not to extend my opinion
farther, I rest my objechons to its constitutionality
upon these ground a-:
let. That the power of Congress to raise and sup.
port armies does not include the power to draft the
militia of the States.
2d, That the power of Congress to mill forth the
militia cannot be exercised in the forms of this en•
aotment.
34. That a citizen of Pennsylvania cannot be sub.
jetted to the rules and articles of war, until he is in
actual military service.
4th. That be is not placed in such actual service
when his name has_ been drawn from a wheel, and
ten days , notice thereof has been served upon him.
For these reasons I am for granting the injunction..

- Daniel Baker vs. The West Philadelphia Passenger
Railway Company. An action to recover'damages
for the lose of a mule. A drove of mules were being
driven out Market street, in the Twenty-fourth
ward, when, as it iii alleged, one of the cars of the
company was driven so carelessly that the tongue of
the car struck one of the mules, injuring it so
severely that it died .the next day. The defence
deny any negligence on their part, and charge negli
gence in the drivers of the drove, in not preventing
the mules from straggling. They allege that the
nude that was injured shied at a dog in the street,
at d that this brought him in contact with the
tongue by which he was injured. Jury out.
Jae. E. Ford and W. L. Stevenson, trading as Ford
& Stevenson, vs. Bernard Fitzpatrick. An action
to recover damages for lose alleged to have been
sustained by plaintiffs in the purchase from de.

tiffs allege that they agreed to purchase a quantity
of canned peaches of the quality of a sample shown
them, but when the fruit was delivered, some of the
cans were found to contain sour peaches, and others
contained tomatoes. One of the witnesses called,
whose name was on the labels on the can, testified
that he prepared the fruit in question, and that dark
brown sugar instead of white sugar was furnished
by the defendant for the preserving, and on being
told that it would not answer, the defendant re
plied that it was good enough. Jury out.

Court of Oyer and Terminer and Quarter
Sessions—Judge Thompson.
John H. Hammett, the lessee, under the city, of
Maiden• street wharf, was tried on a charge of main
taining a nuisance. The case was tried for the pur
pose of testing the right of the city to lease this
wharf, which is claimed as private property. Mal.
den street was originally laid out and dedicated to
public use by. Mr. Master, who at the time owned a
large portion of the property in Kensington, and,
the prosecutor in the present case alleges that this
public use extends to the end of the street, and gives
no right in the city to obstruct the wharf. Judge
Thompson so decided, and the jury rendered a ver
dict of guilty. -
TIIE POLICE::
(Before Mr. 11. S Commissioner lieszlett.
Alleged Larceny of Coffee.'
Samuel Glasgow, a colored individual, was ar
raigned yesterday afternoon on the charge of, steal•
ing coffee from the camp of Ohelton Hill. '-It seems,
from the evidence adduced, that the defendant ogled
upon a storekeeper and offered to sell him seine
coffee, at the rate 422 cents per pound. The store
keeper refused to pay this much, and offered him 19
cents per pound. The defendant said that he could
get 22 cents from a storekeeper to whom he had
previously sold several lots of coffee. lie then pro
ceeded to this store ; was followed by the man, to
whom he bad made application to sell, who - saw the
bargain consummated at the rate of 22 cents per
pound. The defence Bet up that the coffee was not
stolen by Glasgow ; that it was given to him by the
cook, or one of the cooks of the regiment. The de
fendant was committed to answer. In about half
an hour after the case had been closed, a colored
man entered the office, with a couple of colored
women, who have been in the habit of loitering
about the camp.
On entering, he said he "had a couple ob ladies
present, who wished to_ specify their evidence on de
fac that they saw the cook gib the coffee to de gem
man charged wid stealing it. ,,
The commissioner replied that any evidence for
the defence must be produced in court.
The Central Station.
Quietness reigned in the Central Station yester
day. A group of detectives, flanked right and left
by members of the press, were spread around for the
space of half an hour, waiting the arrival of the
magistrate, But he did not come; 'twits no use,
because there were no cases to be heard. During
this hiatus in the public business, the time is made
interesting by divers conversation on various topics.
Let us draw a sketch of the scene :
There 'sits Mr. Bulkley reading a chapter in the
Book of Job. Mr. B. may be considered the proto
type of the past patriarch of patience, for he has to
near all complaints, which he listens to with un
divided attention, though he is often in danger of
being talked to death.
Mr. Calanan explains something about a great
spiritualist, who makes the name of a departed
mortal appear upon his arm, not Mr. °Marian's,
but that of the spiritualist.
Mr. Taggart suddenly appears from the detes.
tivee' gallery ; he lights his pipe, lays back at ease,
and contemplates the curling smoke that wreathes
his brow. He can see in the winding column how
empires rise and fall—how the essence. of Lynch
burg ascends, like a human soul, while the ashes,
like the body, fall below, and sleep in dust.
Mr. Smith, the veritable George, says nothing:
Wrapped in deep meditation, he admires the last
diamond ring upon his finger, and wonders ‘, When
this cruel war will be over."
Mr. Henderson enters from the street, his facial
developments ruddy under the effects of the cool
breeze ;he winds his way through the party, pulls
out his gold watch, three times, compares it with:
the State House twice, andlakes passage on a car
for a railroad depot.
Messrs. Lemon anti Bartholomew have a private
tiak . ; heth gap several times during the eOnv_ersa
ton, then separate and are seen no mOre.
The reporters, like a flock of quail, suddenly rise,
spread in different directions, and thus comes to an
end a lazy half hour at the Central Station.
'Jorge . Stealing. '.
For some time past an , unusual number of horses
have disappeared from farms in Montgomery,
Bucks,.. and adjacent counties. On Tuesday eve
ning, Sergeant Johnson, of the Fourteenth ward po
lice, arrested a fellow giving the name of Edward
Xing, who stands charged with the larceny of a
horse and wagon, the property of Charles Kerr, of
Hartsville, Bucks county. The accused was taken
to Doylestown for trial.
A Severe Relrtark.
The great conspiracy case of Moore alias Hfand,
Benedict, and John O'Neill, who were arrested in
July last by Colonel Sherman, of the secret service
of the United States, has been before Judge Cad
walader for several days Oh a writ of habeas cor•
pus. 'Yesterday several letters, found in the pos•
session of the accused, were banded to thejudge
by District Attorney Coffee. His Honor read them
carefully and then placed one in possession of Mr.
J. C. Vandyke, counsel for the defence, remarking
at the same time- 6, Two Melt were hung in England
cn just such evidence as this." Mr. Vandyke read
the precious epistle awl said nothing.

TAPHYSICAL DISCO VE SY. .
"I, Dr. John J. Mom e, of Berkley, N. J., assert, for
the benefit of all who suffer, that I have been afflicted
with diseased eyes for twenty-three years; have beau in
the Eye Infirmary - in Providence, where it o , as thought
an operation was necessary, but to this I would not con
sent. I have been pronounced incuraLts by five of the
best phy&iciatts in the country. two of whom assured
me nay eyes would rust opt in a few weeks. and procured
a letter for my admittance into the Infirmary in Phila.
delphia.
"While preparing to go, a friend advised me to try
Mrs. M. G. Brown. On the 9th of September. 1993, I
went to see her, led by my wife as I was totally blind,
and had been sot. r a year. Mrs. Brown told me my ease
was had, almost hopeless, through the quantity of blue
stone and vitriol administered, but added, if anything
could reach my case, the MetaphycicalDiscevery would.
She made the first application; I. brought the medicine
'home I have need it three weeks, and the result is that
this twenty-ninth ;lay of September, I have come to Phi
ladelphia alone, now sit in Mrs. Brown s office; can
read withbut glasses the signs on the opposite side of the
street; write a letter at the desk, and see every object
distinctly around me.
" 1 am now at my practice again, supplying the wants
of my family, who must have been beggared had I not
been cured. Under these circumstances I cordially re
commend Mrs. M. G. Brown's anode of treatment to all
who are suffering. The Metaphysical Discovery cures
Deafness, Noises in the Head, R.unning o f the Ears, Ca
tarrh, &c., &c. The package consists of three distinct
preparations, one for the eye, one for the ear, and one for
the scalp. They work in conjunction, and remove the
legitimate cause of all disease."
