Democracy and Federalism.
The onward march of the patent democ
racy to old federalism can be exemplified
in no better manner than by quoting the
opinion of Thomas Jefferson on the pow
ers of the Supreme Court. In 1811) he
wrote —
" In denying the right they (the judges of
the Supreme Court) usurp of exclusively ex
plaining the Constitution, I go further than
you do, if I understand rightly your quotation
from the Federalist, of an opinion ' that the
judiciary is the last resort ia relation to the
other departments of the Government, but not ;
in relation to the rights of the parties to the ;
compact under which the judiciary isderived.'
If this opinion be sound, then, indeed, is our
Constitution a complete felo dc sc. For, in '
tending ta establish three departments, co- \
ordinate and independent, that they might
check and balance one another, it has given,
according to this opinion, to one of them :
alone the right to prescribe rules for the gov i
eminent of the other; and to that one, too,
which is un elected by and independent of
the nation * * * * *
* * * . The Constitution, on this I
hypothesis, is a mere thing of wax, in the ]
hands of the judiciary, which they may twist
and shape into any form they please. It j
should be remembered as an axiarn ofeternal
truth in politics, that whatever power in any
Government is independent, is absolute also;
in theory only at first, while the spirit of the
people is up, but in practice as fast as that
relaxes. Independence can be trusted nowhere
but with the people in mass. They are inher I
ently independent of all moral law.
In a letter written in 1820, to Mr. Jai- !
vis, he used the following language:
" The Constitution has erected no sueh :
single tribunal, kuowing that, to whatever
hands confided, with the corruptions of time i
and party, its m, mbers would become despots, i
It has nmre wisely made all the departments !
.CO equal and co sovereign within them; elves." i
To Judge Johnson he wrote, in 1828, |
.these striking words:
" I cannot lay down my pen without recur- i
ring to one of Hie subjects of my former let !
ter, for, in truth, there is no danger I appre
hind so much as the consolidation of our Gov
ernment by the noiseless, and therefore un- '
alarming, instrumentality of the Supreme !
Court. This is the form in which federalism '
now arrays itself; and consolidation is the !
present principle of distinction between Repub I
licans and pseudo Republicans, but real feder j
alists."
And General Jackson entertained sim
ilar opinions in reference to the powers of
the Supreme Court. In his message ve- :
toing the bill re-chartering the Bank of j
.the United States, he emphatically said:
" The opinion of the Judyes has no more
authority over Conyie.s than the opinion of \
Congress over the judges; and on that point \
the President is independent of both. The au- j
thority of the Supreme Court must not, there- !
fore, be permitted to control the Congress or
the executive, when acting in their legislative !
capacities, but to have only such influence as '
the force of their reasoning deserve."
Democratic Senator from Mis
souri, in course of a long and bitter speech
against the homestead bill passed by the :
House, said :
" What is there honest and truthful in vo- j
ting away my property to some a®-POO It
IX F A MOIS SCOU NDK E L ?"©0 Do it, ifyuu
dare! Do it 1 Do it! Do it! You vote my
property away as a bonus to lazzaroni, to
those ®*IN FAMOUS
who dare not work fur a living because you
want their votes."
1 he Homestead Bill passed by the House
was intended to give men unable to pur- ;
chase public lands a settlement by which
they could enter the field against specula
tors, and for being poor this democratic
nigger nabob considers them scoundrels.

editor of the Chainbersburg Valley Spirit, lias

tee"A. J. Greer and C. B. Harris of Mif

A similar letter was sent to the nominee j
; for the Vice Presidency, to which the follow- |
ing is the reply :
WASHINGTON, May 30, 1360.
GENTLEMEN: —Iour official communication
of the 13th inst-, informing me that the rep
resentatives of the Republican party of the
United States, assembled at Chicago, on that
day, had, by a unanimous vote, selected me
as their candidate for the office of Vice Pre.-i
dent of the United States, has been received,
together with the resolutions adopted by the
Convention as its declaration of principles.
Those resolutions enunciate clearly and
forcibly the principles which unite us, and
the objects proposed to be accomplished.
They address themselves to all, and there is
neither necessity nor propriety in my enter
ing upon a discussion of any id" them. They
have the approval of my judgement, and, in
any action of mine, will be faithfully and cor
dially sustained.
I am profoundly grateful to those with
whom it is my pride and pleasure politically
to co operate, for the nominatioc 30 unexpect j
edly conferred; and I desire to tender through !
you, to the members of the Convention, my j
sincere thanks for the confidence thus repos 1
ed in me. Should the nomination, which 1 j
now accept, be ratified by the peopde, and the j
duties devolve upon me of presiding over the 1
Senate of the United States, it will be ny j
earnest endeavor faithfully to discharge them !
with a just regard to the rights of all.
It is to be observed, in connection with the
doings of the Republican Convention, that a
paramount object with us, is, to preserve the
normal cmdition of our Territorial domain
as homes for free men. The able advocate
and defender of Republican principles, whom
you have nominated for the highest place that
can gratify the ambition of man, comes from
a State which has been made what it is, by
special action in that respect, of wise and
good men who founded our institutions.
Ihe rights of free labor have there been
vindicated and maintained. The thrift and
enterprise which so distinguish Illinois, one
of the most flourishing States of the glorious
West, we would see secured to all the Terri
tories of the I nion ; and restore peace and
harmony to the whole countiv, by bringing
hack the Government to what it was under
the wise and patriotic men who created it.
If the Republicans should succeed in that ob
ject, as they hope to, they will be held in
grateful remembrance by the busy and teem
ing milions of future ages. I am, very trulv,
yours,

LOCAL AFFAIRS.
THE TOWN HALL — Its Uses and Abuses.
—A public hall is an accommodation to
the public, and as long as properly kept in
order and a due degree ot decorum enforc
ed, it will be frequented by people laying
claim to respectability, whether concerts,
exhibitions, public meetings or divine ser
vices are held there. Our country is in
part free, and while no one will dispute the
right of citizens to assemble and discuss
! public measures, yet there is a limit beyond
which no public officer ought to suller
I such a place to be perverted. "W hen, a
few years ago, a difficulty arose with some
zealous, perhaps then over-zealous temper
ence men, the Burgess and Town Council
promptly took the ground that attacks up
| 011 individuals were not justifiable, and re
fused to give the further use of the hall
for that purpose. In this action they were
sustained by three-fourths of our best citi
zens, most of whom at •once saw the dan
ger which would necessarily follow an un
bridled license of speech. From that time
to within a few weeks, but little fault has
been found either with temperance or any
other lectures, for although at times per
sonal references have been made, argu
ments of another cast were found to be
quite as effectual. A few weeks ago, how
ever, a few men, useless as citizens, and al
most totally irresponsible, taking advantage
of some ex-eitenient among certain water
renters who felt aggrieved at the action of
the board, called a public meeting, ostensi
bly for the purpose of transacting business
but in reality to enable a wormwood to vent
his pentap malice against certain individu
als, in which the living and the dead were
alike indiscriminately slandered, abused
and belied. That, as well as the subse
quent fizzle, amounted to nothing so far as
business was concerned, leaving the inevi
table conclusion that " business" was not
the object.
If the Town Ilall is hereafter to be
used far such purposes, well and good, but
let it be known. Those, therefore, who
have spite and grudge against neighbors,
who envy industry, covet prosperity, or
possess that worst of feelings, pure malice,
need only find a pretext to call a public
meeting, employ a fitting cat's paw well
soaked with rotgut whiskey to do the work,
and they can have those they hate or lear
abused to their heart's content. Here's
the Burgess and Town Council for instance,
who have been doing some work in the
north eastern part of the borough not to
the liking of many folks—here's the
Lewistown (Jus Company, what business
have they to charge anything for the use
of gas except what people want to pay ?
the Bridge Company—the Odd Fellows'
Hall Company—the tavern keepers and
liquor dealers —the lawyers, the doctors,
and preachers—the merchants, shoema
kers and hatters—any or all of these as
well as other classes, embrace men who no
doubt have their enemies, and will afford
an excellent pretext for calling a " public
meeting." The charge for such occasions
in summer is only 50 cents per night, '
which is dog cheap to have your neighbor
traduced and belied, or to rake up the ash
es of the dead. Unbridled liberty of
speech, invective, blackguardism, anything
that hell can dictate or suggest, can be
used—truth or falsehood uttered, it mat
ters not, for you will be told you have your
remedy in law !! 1 There is no doubt of
that—you can sue irresponsible men, and
perhaps by the time you get through your
pocket may suffer to the amount of some
825 or §3O, which as everybody knows is
most satisfactory to wounded feelings and
longstanding accounts in ledgers. Come
along, then, ye Vipers and Wormwoods,
and relieve the monotony of dull times;
the Town Ilall has been repainted and re
paired first or second for better purposes
and next for your use ; the constable will
keep order for you there, and probably not
disturb you afterwards should you carouse
about the streets, although he is paid for
doing both —in short, this is a " free coun
try," and even if you are too lazy to work
or too dishonest to pay your debts, there
is no reason why you should not, like Me
phistopholes, act your part in life, even if
it is of the worst shade.

a severe storm on the 30th, in which trees,

and, in fact, everything in its course was en-
tirely destroyed. Many barns and trees took
tire and were consumed, whilst ethers were
torn to ]i 'ces, and the fragments scattered in
such a manner that it is impossible to teli
w iere they are. The village of Maysville, in
Jefferson county, was entirely demolished,
not one building remains standing—twenty
live buildings, including the grist and saw
mills of John Hess, dwelling and store of
Col. MeFarlaod, and Mr. llawe's Hotel, com

Lincoln Among ths Children
Probably no attribute of our candidate
will, after all, endear him so much to the
; popular heart as the conviction that he is
| emphatically "one of the people." His
manhood has not been compressed intot'ie <
artificial track of society; but his great
heart and vigorous intellect have been al
! lowed a generous devclopement amid his
solitary struggles in the forest and the
prairie. With vision unobscured by the ;
mists of sophistry, he distinguishes at the
first glance between what is true and what
is false, and with will and courage fortified
by his life of hardship, he is not the man
to shirk any responsibility, or to shrink
from any opposition. Moreover, he is pe
culiarly one to win our confidence and af
fection. To know " honest Abe" is to love
him; and his neighbors in the West al
though voting for him to a man, will
mourn the victory which is to deprive them
of his presence. The following incident
will exhibit Lincoln in one of those unob
: trusive acts of goodness which adorn his
life. The circumstance was related by a
teacher from the Five Points' House of lu
dustry in this city : " Our Sunday-School
in the Five Points was assembled, one Sab
bath morning a few months since, when I
j noticed a tall and remarkable looking man
enter the room and take a seat among us.
He listened with fixed attention to our ex
ercises, and his countenance manifested
such genuine interest, that I approached
him and suggested that he might be wil
i, ling to say something to the children. He
accepted the invitation with evident pleas
ure, and coming forward began a simple
address, which at once fascinated every lit
tle hearer, and hushed the room into si.
lence. His lauguage was strikingly beau
tiful, and his tones musical with intensest
feeling. The little faces around would
droop into sad conviction as he uttered sen
tences of warning, and would brighten in
to sunshine as he spoke cheerful words of
promise. Once or twice he attempted to
close his remarks, but the imperative shout
of 'Go on ! Oh, do go on !' would compel
him to resume. As I looked upon the
gaunt and sinewy frame of the stranger,
and marked his powerful head and deter
mined features, now touched into softness
by the impressions of the moment, I felt
au irresistable curiosity to learn something
more about him, and when he was Quietly
leaving the room, I begged to know his
name. He courteously replied, 'lt is
Abraham Lincoln from Illinois '" Yeio

gfejf' The democratic Senate, by a close vote
—29 to 27 —adopted the House resolution to
adjourn Congress on Monday, the ISth inst.
This action seems to indicate the defeat of the
Tariff bill, and also the bill to admit Kansas,
though it is not decisive as to either.
Stay Judge Smyser recently decided that
the occupation of a farmer is not taxable

pow-wow meeting in the Town Ilall on Sat
urday evening. Stratford, after repeated calls,
finally got up and made afewsensibleremarks,
during which he pretty plainly intimated that

drunk ! Had the audience been more numer
ous, we dare say he would have turned the
whole afiair into a regular temperance meet
ing, and perhaps as is often the case brought
good out of evil.
