Peters, ! Committee of Arrangement. CT The'Suprcme Court, by a majori ty of one (Judges Field, of California, Davis, of Indiana, Clifford, of Maine, Nelson, of New-York, and Gricr, of Penn sylvania, assenting, and Chief-Justice Chase, of lheDisti ict of Columbia, Judg es Miller, of Iowa, Swayne, of Ohio, and Wayne, of Georgia, dissenting), annulled so much of the Constitution of Missouri, as precludes those who participated in or sympathized with the late Rebellion, from officiating as ministers of religion, as teachers in schools, or as legal advo catcs in courts. Judges Field, Davis, Chase, Miller and Swayne were appointed by President Lincoln. The grounds upon which this decision is made may be briefly stated. It u ar gued that the test-oath is directed against acts not defined in any code as criminal; for instance, the mere expression cf sym pathy v. ith rebellion; that such acts had no possible rclatiou to the lawful pursuits of the persons committing them; that the oath coutravenes the clause of the Con stitution forbidding any State to pass a bill of attainder or cxpost factoWr; that the oath is in effect both of these, be cause, by an evasion of the Constitution, it imposes the penalties of a bill of attain der, and an ex post facto law, and that the Constitution deals with things, not names; that the oath is cx post factoQ cause.scmc of the acts for which it impos es the punishment of deprivation f rom oEce, etc., were not kown as offenses when the acts were committed; that it subverts the 'presumption of innocence, and perverts the rules of evidence, pre suming the party to Le guilty, without trial; that it imposes penalties without the form of judical proceedings; that if the oath is legal the Constitution may be evaded at pleasure, and individualsdepriv- ed of their civil rights. The opinion of the Court upon th con stitutionality of the test-oath imposed by Congress upon attorneys and counselors is based cu similar grounds, it holding additionally that attorneys arc not oGcers of the United States, and that the Court is not the rcg:strar-of the edicts of any other power, i. e. Congress, and that Con gress cannot impose qualifications as a means of punishmeut. It further holds that, the case considered ,thc petitioners had received full pardons from the Presi dent for taking part in the llebeliion, and that Congress cannctJimit the-effct of a pardon which constitutionally restores to full citizenship. The dissenting opinion of Justice Mil ler holds that practice ia the Courts is a privilege w1?fch Congress may limit, and not an exclusive riiiht: that attorneys are subject to legislation, equally as judges; Uiat Congress had the power to prescribe their qualifications, and that the oath im posed is not an unjust discrimination; that the oath justly makes loyalty ia the past, and tho pledge of it in the future, a qualification. It denies that the test-oaths are in substance bills of attainder or cx post facto, and argue3 that they simply require the proof of loyally as a condition of practiccand not as a punishment for past offenses. It holds that the Presi dent's power to pardon docs not dispense with the laws; that " he may save a crim inal froai the gallows, bufra lawyer can not by him be re-admitted to the bar." We place the substance of the two opin ions before our readers, with the belief that if 'that of Judge Miller be not the law, we have the monstrous anomaly of a Constitution which give3 treason the le gal power to evade the consequences of treason, and prevents Congress or the States from making loyalty a qualification of ofiice. 1ST We have been reading, at odd mo ments, for a couple of weeks, a work cu titlcd " The Campthe Battle Field and the Hospital; or, Ligbt3 and Shadows of the Great Rebellion," and fel impelled to confess that the time thus devoted has been most. profitably spent.

Sec advertisement headed, " A gents "Wanted." COMMUNICATED. Notice. The Committee on Lectures would ren der an apology to the public, jor the fail ure of the first lecture of the course, which was to have been delivered oa Tuesday evening last. . Owing to Providential causes, however, the lecturer, ller. Geo. F.

The note canceling tho engagement having beerrreccived only on the day ap pointed for the lecture, no notice of the fact could be given in time to prevent attendance.

The march of improvement promises to be steadily onward, in our borough. The increasing demand for houses, acd places of business, and the consequent cnhtince ment of rents, are opening the eyes of cur capitalists to the necessities of tho case and we hear ofa cumber of buildings to be erected during the approaching spring and summer. Among the fixed improvements, we may mention that about being erected by J S. Williams & Co., on the corner of the Caadlc Factory lot, to meet the increas injr demands of their business. The building is to be sixty feet deep, twenty two feet wide and fifteen feet high, with cellar under the whole, 7 feet in the clear, and will be of brick. A good por tion of the stone for the foundation is al ready ou the ground, and we learn that the contract for the building has been a warded to Mr. R. R. Cress. Messrs. AVil liams & Co., a3 our readers are aware, are engaged iu the liquor business, and having ct out with a firta determination, which they have strictly adhered to, of furnishing none but pure liquors, they have built up a business which has proved remunc rative to themselves, and is now about to secure a substantial improvement to our town. r, IIor.

Mr. Samuel Cox, of the town of Sara toga, Winona county, "Wis., met with a serious accident while slacking a quanti ty of common line in a kerosene barrel in the cellar. After adding water, and while stirring with a stick, he brought a lighted candle in contact with the steam or eras, which instantly exploded, throwing him some 8 or 10 feet against the cellar wall, ripping up the house floor, throwing Mrs. Cox from her chair, and burning several of her fingers to a blister, and burning the lips and tongue of a young lady who was standing at a table ia the same room. The hole through the floor was about four feet by eight. Particles of lime were thrown all over the house. The explo siou was terrific, and, notwithstanding be ing shut up in the house, it was heard at a distance of a quarter of a mile. The face and hands of Mr. Cox were burned to a blister, aud he was otberswise bruis ed, so that ho was confined to his bed. His eyes were also swollen shut for two days. Under medical care he is doiug well. A butcher in Milwankce, upon killing a cow for beef a few days since, discover ed a live mud turtle, measuring about six inches across the back, ia her stomach. The turtle could not, by any possibility, have got into the cow's stomach, while it was the size it was when discovered, and must been swallowed by the animal while drinking some time since, and remained io her stomach for months, if not for years. The turtle only lived about ten hours after being taken out. Its shell was very much eaten away by the acids of tho stomach. 4 The Oswego Times thus enforces the benefit of advertising: A gentleman yesterday advertised io our columns "a dog loat."

Late dispatches from Fort Laramie leave, unfortunately, little room for doubt that the massacre of United btatcs troops near Fort Philip Kearney in Dakota, was full as horrible as it was hrst represented. Col. Fillerman,Capt. Drown, Lieut. Graiu mond. aud Eighty-seven men were drawn into an ambush by tho savages, ana every one of them was slaughtered. It is of little avail now to wonder how an cxpcriuccd officer could lead his troops into such a trap when the hostile disposition of tue surrounding Indiaus was well known ; il the commaudcr of this uu fortunate de tachment was to blame, he is already pun ished beyond hi3 deserts. Dut the -frequency of Indian outrages during the last few months, and the fact that the distur bances are confined to no particular local ity, but extend over the whole region from New-Mexico to the northern border, and from the westernmost settlements of Kan sas to the frontier town of California, de mand of us a very careful and intelligent consideration. W e expressed our convic tion some three months ago, that a gen oral Indian war was imminent, but many people, deceived by the lyiug reports of those who find their profit in the wretched system of Indian misgovernmeut which is responsible lor those horrors, made light ol our apprehensions. Now, we believe there arc few who will question that a war is inevitable, and that the only way to secure the future safety of our Western settlers and emigrants is to make that war short, sharp, and decisive. A Fort Laramie dispatch mentions a rumor of a coalition of twelve tribes, numbering 11,000 war riors, against the white settlers of Dakota aud Montana ; and a few weeks ago we had a report of a similar confederation a mong the Arapahoe.-', Cheyennes, and oth cr savages of Southern Kansas. Every mail brings us accounts cf raids and mas sacres, now in Arizona, now in Idaho, now in Kansas or New-Mexico. Supply trains for the mining regions are cut off ; mails and telegraphs are interrupted, and em igrants who are fortunate enough not to leave their bodies rotting on the plains only get through to their destination by sheer lighting. Kobbery of Hope's Express Wagon Over vl7wUU in U. b. Bonds and Money Stolen On the evening of the Oih inst., about G 30 P. M., the wagon of Hope's Express Company, while on its way from kings tou to this place, was stopped by six men who, by holding the horses and placing revolvers to the heads of the men in charge of the wagon, succeeded, in takin possession of the Express bag and pack ages. The robbery occurred about half way between KiDgston and this place. The bag contained one package of$15," 000, in 5-20 bonds, new issue, of the fol lowing denominations: 13 bond3 of $1,- 000 each and 4 bonds of 500 each, and four money packages containing in the aggregate 200, together with four small parcels of merchandise, one valued at $70, and the others of value unknown. After becoming possessed of their plun dcr the thieves took tho road toward Kingston for a short distance, when they took to the field, and at a distance ol some forty or fifty rod "from tho road opened the bag and packages, ami retain ing the valuable content, lelt the wrap pears and bag iu the field. The representatives of the Express Company are here, and arc vigorously en gaged in ferreting out the parties to the robbery. What information they possess is know n to none but themselves, as they keep their own counsels. The payment of the bonds has been stopped and they will be of no avail to the thieves, as the Express Company have notified the Treasury Department and bankers and brokers throughout tho coun try of their denominations. Yil Ices-Bar- re Union. Butler County. A party was given at the house of a Mr. Oliver, oa Christmas Eve. ia Por- tersville, aad a couple of friends of Mr. Oliver came there ia the evening whom he invited to stay.

Mr. Oliver, ia trying to separate the parties, had his skull fractured. I wo or three others were also injured. What is most singular is, uo one seems to now who the murderer of young Cunningham is. Much excitement prevails in the vicinity of the murderous affray, and the whole affair will be thoroughly investigated. ; -e While the Woman's Rights Conven tion was in session at Albauy a horse car wa3 crowded.

A few week- ago he with Ms family came on a visit to M i i j- .i : . commenced, from some unknown motive, importuning his mother-in-law to rid her self of her husband by refusing longer to live with him. Meeting with prompt de nail of his wishes he become eurly aud abusive to everybody in the bouse, and even uttered threats against the life of his wife. He however persisted in his entreaties for lha ridance cf Mr. llesh from the family, but was continually met with refusals. On Saturday he was par ticularly rough and rude, and by Sunday hi3 thoughts turned upon murder. To this end he kept himself up stairs all day ia company with .weapons that lie held ia readiness to carry out his hellish designs a dagger made out of a large file, a sharpened bayonet and a new hatchet. He kept all day soliciting his wife to join him, but she sternly refused, his villain ous designs being in a fSanner feared, andi to this end Mr. Itesh also kept purposely at home all day. At about 8 o'clock in the evening, Mr. Ilesh abseutcd himself temporarily from the lower apartments, which opportunity Luringer seized upoa to inaugurate his bloody feast, by coming down stairs and selecting a' huge butcher knife with which he hastily infiicted 6 stabs on the bedy of his wife one in tho ab domen, in. the region of the hip, one ia tho shoulder, one deep ia the forehead, ia withdrawing the knife from which he broke out a piece of the frontal bone, an other ia the arm, and two in the breast, the last so deep aud forcible that he lest his hold and could not withdraw the knife, the victim doing it herself.
