THE LAW lINDEIL WHICH THE
.
MIDI n 'CALLED ;0117T.
We give) below, from tbeNational In:
telligetieer4the section of the act of .1795
ituderAvhiCh the President of the United
States has called forth the militia of the
State iithiOroclamation of • Monday.--
That law 4%.*;:as passed in reference: to the.,
insurrection in Pennsylvania, when many
thousand .of insurgearits were in arum
against•thelFederal authority:. That form
idable outbfreak being happily quelled, no
farther action u ail had under due statute
till - 1914, when, war with Great Britain
existing, its: piovisions were found effect
ive in bringing theforces of the country
meter the Contra of tire Federal Govern
ment. Congress, however, in that year
extended the time of service to six months,
it being limited by. not-of 1799 to three,
months. Tlie amendatory act of 1914
was restricted as to its period of operation
to the duration of the then existing war,
and by its Own terms expired atits close
leaving the provisions of the act of 1795
in force. It will be observed that the
President has in Iris Proclamation quoted
the exact text of the statute, the section
referred tqbeing as follows.
"Sec: 5. I Aid be it further mulcted, That
• Avhenever the laws of the United -States
shall be opp'!..isell or the execution thereof
obstructed in any State hy ethubinations
too powerful to he ,inippresseit by the or
dinary sortie of
,10h:bit proceedings, or
by the powers vested in the marshals by
this set, it shalt be laWfhl for the Presi
dent of the United States to call•forth the
militia of such State, or of any. other State
or'States, as , may benecessary to suppress
such conbinations, and -to cause the laws
to be duly 4eented, and the use of the
militia to b4alled forth.may.becontiuned
if necessary, until 'the expiration of thirty
days after the commencement of the then
next session i of Congress." .
The power of the President to deter;
•mine the exikence of the filets which es
tablish Ow iiccessity ofealling 'Mon the
militia has beeli settled by judicial deter
mination. In the case of Martin vs Mott,
-reported in the 111th volume of Wheaton,.
p. 19, the C4urt. says.
"The authority,to decide whether the
exigencies chntemplated in the Constitu
tion of the United, ' States and the act of
Congress ofil 795 chap. 191, in which the
President has authority to call forth the
militia to' 4ccute the laws of the Union,
suppress insorrections,and repel invasions,
have arisen,] is exclusively. vested in the
President, and his decision is - conclusive
all other pel•sons.".
The clause which limits the service of
troops called'out under this act is found
in the fourth section, and as follows:-
. " no officer, non- commissioned offt- -
eer, or private shall be compelled to serve
snore than three months after his arrival
at the place, , of rendezvous in any one
year:"
.. ; . -
It will be observed that the concluding
clauSe of thelsecond section quoted above
makes the term of service olso expire
thirt y days after the assembling of • Con--
gres. It ls.noticeable , that it tvaS in the
power of tlid Presideut,hy declining to
call an extra lsession of Congress, to hairs
provided a longer period' of hostilities, in
asmuch as tile troops - ordered into - the
field upon the fit*• requisition could, at
the expiration of their term of service,
have been replaced by a new levy, - and
thus a sufficient 'army have been kept, un
der arms till :the first ofjanuary next. It
is not doubtetl-that the spiritof the-State.
furnishing the troops Would have prompt
ly advanced the Money necessary to main
tain their several quotas in active opera
tions, relying on the General Government
for repayineot. The Admstratie l p,boe
ever, have prudently put it 1)400 the
oi.wer of the Executive to continue troops
in the field beyond the first of August.—'
In calling Coisgress together, the Govern
ment will liao deferred to the Senators
of the States Merthe represenatatives- of
the people the responsibility of the meas
ures and the policy which, after the date
of their assemblage, may, be held requsit'e
to preserve public peace.—Rending
Gazette. -
As EARLY I.l4:AcE.— . When it became
apparent to eery one that peace could
no longer bet - Muntained i and that. hostil- - -
itics must eventually. ensue, we watched
the approach cif the war cloud with appre
hension and sadness We looked upon
war—a civil War—in which the North
might be callbd to encounter a united.
South i as something too hoirible to con
template' w t h rid ifferencN and its - one of
the direst calamities that could fall'upon
all our substantial interests.
When war At length burst upon us we
firmly androinptlY 'expressed it as .our
determinationtto stand by and sustain the
Government,,fo which we had. been hith
t(), opposed, during thc.• contitnianee or,
the conflict,. atpl to aid - it in maintaining ,
the honor of the country and the suprem
crof the American flag,_ •
When the Yime Shall come-i-and our
heartfelt 4lesini is that it may not - be tar
distant—that ;t -e can with prothiety ad
vocate an honorable termination. 'of the
war weshall 1)4 the first to raise our voi
ces in. belmit of trace:.
