"Whereas,the Constitution has or dained that the privilege of the writ of habeas corpus shall not be sus pended unless when in cases of re bellion or invasion, and the public, safety may require it; and whereas, a rebellion was existing CAI the 3rd day of March, 1863, which rebellion is still existiug ; and whereas, by a statute which was approved on that day, it was enacted - by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States, in Congress assem bled, that, during the ?meant insur rection, the President of the United States, whenever in his judgment the. public safety may require it, is authorized to suspend the privilege of the writ of habeas corpus in any State throughout the United States, or in any part thereof; and where as, in the judgment of the Presi dent, the public safety does require that the privilege of the said writ shall now be suspended throughout the United States, in mules where the authority of the President of the United States, military, naval and civil officers of the United States, or any of them, hold persons under their command, or in their custody, either as prisonervof war, spies, or alders or abettors of the en emy, or officers, soldiers or seamen enrolled, drafted or mustered or en listed in or belonging to the land or naval forces of the United States, or as deserters therefrom, or otherwise amenable to military law, or to the rules and articles of war, or to the rules and regulations prescribed for the military or naval service by the authority of the President of the 'United States, or fir reaistino , a draft or. for any other ottence against the military or naval service.

The Abolition papers aro oonstautly de nouncing the Democracy as " traitors" and enemies of the country. If this is so, the Providence Poet says "it is certainly wonderful that the Abolitionists should be striving to get so many of them into the army. In New York they proposed to take about nineteen Democrats to every ten Republicans drafted, and in this State every member of the Republican 'Union League' who has been drafted, has been willing to accept a Democratic substitute. It is said, upon what we consider good authority, that the Union Leagues here embraced three-fourths of the Republi can voters in the towns in which they were located ; yet we think it cannot be shown that a single member of that or ganization out of the whole number draft ed, has put on Uncle Sam's uniform, or that one of them has volunteered as a substitute. They seem perfectly willing to trust the defense of the country to 'the enemy '—the copperheads." Du. HooxEB,T & LORGDON.

A POINT TOR TIM 00N8111- 31411LATION,O.T TES .311,0CLA . MATIONISTS. As a reason imhy the President should not recall his Proclamation of Einanci mtion the New York Tribune said in a recent issue : A hundred days grac. was given hi which it might be recalled, and the in dulgence was disregarded. Will another hundred days, or any number of hun dreds, be accepted, even if the President could unmake lona To this the World responda briefly as follows. We ask all men of sense to say whether the point it. wakes is not sound : Now if to recall the proclamation would be to unmake laws, it necessarily follows that to isssue the proclamation was an exercise of the power to wake laws. But the legislative power of the Federal Government is vested by the Constitniion of the United States exclusively in Con gress ; hence it must be apparent, even to the Tribune, that the proclamation is unconstitutional, null and void. The Tribune, however, will no doubt fall back upon the novel doctrine of the Republican party, Wet iii time of war all the powers and attributes of govern ment are vested in the President. In this view its reason for not recall ing the proclamation is just no reason at all, for if the President hes the power to make laws, and therefore to issue the proclamation of emancipation, he must also possess the power to "nuwake laws," and consequently to recall the "pope's bull against the comet."

Lee From Fortress Monroe . , says a Washington special, we have intelli gence through General Foster to the effect that large bodies of rebels con tinue to pass down to Richmond from Lee's army. They all des tined, according to report, for Charleston and Chattanooga. This transition has been so constant as to lead him to express the opinion that Lee's army is breaking, with a view of abandoning Richmond and mass ing at some more Southern poiflt.— A contrary opinion is held by some officers and others—that this move ment of troops is a sham, Lee's real design being to draw Meade away from Washington as far as possible, and then by a sudden movement flank him and attack the city. Lee's bead quarters are at Richmond, and it is said that the rebels rely on the co operation of the iron-clads, which they say are on their way here from England, a d by which they expect to k)rce a passage up the Potomac. The Siege of Charleston—The whets Erecting new Batter ies. NEW YORK, Sept. Morris Is land lettetr to the Herald, dated the 11th, says : li'ver since our occupip tion of Wagner and Gregg, the re bels have been exeoeding morose and savage—they do not allow us a mo ment's peace. They fire night and day upon Wagner, but they left us such an admirably constructed work, and so capacious and safe bomf.- psoofs, no one is injured—they are often enough during the night to ein able us to sleep soundly. Siive Tuesday ten or twelve de serters have come in from James Is land, belonging 1.0 Georgia regi ments. They report continued dis satisfaction among I,lie men, and a general desire to escape from a ser vice which has become disagreeable to them. They state that the rebels are building several new batteries on Sullivan's Island, above Fort Moul trie and Battery Bee. to cover the channel to the city. Additional bat teries arc also being constructed in the most approved style between Fort Johnson and the city, on James Island, on which they are mounting 10 inch columbiadsand 7 inch Brooks rifles. On the Green at the city the rebels have mounted a 13 inch Blakely rifle, which they have just received frcm Mobile, where it was brought with another of the same calibre in an Anglo rebel blockade runner two weeks ago. A second of them. is in Charleston, not mounted. It was at first proposed to mount it on Fort Johnson, but that idea was given up, and so tar as deserters know, no place had yet been determined upon where it could be put in position. Ninety monster projectiles, weigh ing over 500 pounds each, were lyin g by the side of the gun on Charleston Green. The health of the command is good. The soldiers need fresh veg etables. Gen. U•ilmore has issued a thirty days' furlough to privates who have distinuished themselves in the recent siege. They are not to exceed two per cent. of the effective force on the Island, and must be re commended by their Colonel. The Latest News. Rosecrans is reported to be outnumber• ed, but at last advises was maintaining his position. A battle was imminent. The Philadelphia Press has the follow ing from the Army of the Potomac :—Our army will not have to rest this side of the Rapidan. For two days our soldiers have been without fire, fearing to attract the enemy's attention, who would have shell ed them. General Kilpatrick made several_ feints to cross the Rapidan, but found he could not live a moment on the other side. Yes terday and to-day the rebels crossed the Rapidan near Raccoon Ford, and drove 150 of our men away, but were afterwards driven back in confusion by us. We lost about thirty. Rumor says that a strong force of rebels crossed at Raccoon Ford this morning and captured one hundred and fifty of our cav alry. The rebels have a strong position on the Rapidan, but no great: force. THE SUCCESSES OF A WEEK.* September promises to equal July as a month of victories for our arms. During last week alone the following important achievements were recorded:—The cap ture of Forts Wagner and Gregg, with the whole of Morris Island ; the occupation of ; the capture of Chattanooga and expulsion of Bragg's antay ; the cap ture of Cumberland Gap, with two thous and prisoners and fourteen pieces of artil lery ; the capture of Fort Smith and occu pation of Little Rock, Arkansas, involving the complete overthrow of the rebel power in that State ; the capture of Bristol, Ten nessee, cotnnianding West Virginia, the mountainous part of North Carolina, and completing the liberation of Tennessee from rebel control. in addition to these successes during the last week we had in formation of a naval assaalt on Fort Moul trie, and a further advance of Gilmore's operations against Charleston ; of the movement of the Army of the Gulf on an importapt expedition , of rebel reverses at Bath and Moorefield, in Western Virginia, and of other events indicative of a glorious activity in all parts of the military field. This week opens with the hew advance of the Army of the Potomac and the oczu pation of Culpepper, and we shall doubt less hear, before its close, of important successes in Georgia, and probably, of vic tories also in Texas and Alabama. 41 tack ea QuagmirePs Guerrillas.
