In his last messago the President has thrown to the winds everything liko con stitutional law, tho vested rights of States and conciliation, and with autocratic dio- j .anon ..as prcsonocu tno luiuro status of , tho Holiel Pint. n,wl :.,l.ot.:i...., tho Rebel States and their inhabitants. This cunningly devised document is to be used as a political lever to perpetuato his own dictatorial power upon this continent. Ho knows that no considerable number of 'Confederates will ever subscribe to tho test oath ho lias created to support tho procla mations and other radical measures ho has inaugurated during his Abolition rule il .1 uousequcmiy our august manor creates a law allowing onc-lenth part of tho pcoplo oi a state to represent such btate. With tho idea, probably, that tho patronage and influence of tho Government would be sufficient to corrupt and secure a tenth part of tho most corrupt eloment of each Slate to tho purposes of the faction in pow er, our ruler has seen fit to issue this ukase Tho experience ho has had with such par tisan as Judge Adrooatc Holt has doubt less decided him to risk tho chances ol sc ouring this fraction of the voters ofcaoh State. According to this message, wo can have no peace, no restoration and no cessation of tho enormous waste of lifcond treasure, until tho peculiar idea and polioy as well as tho political aspirations of Abraham Lincoln havo been fully carried out. The absolute will of our Iladical Abolition rulers is herein announced as tho future of ' action, respecting war, peace, and the ez-fl istenee oi States. On one condition and one ouiy, can tnose in arms against the United States bo allowed to return to their rights under tho Constitution. This con dition is an oath to subscribe to the pri vate opinions, and the ambitious personal and patty designs of Abraham Lincoln, the pr ee nt exponent oj the Radical Mo ti'.ionj action I Is thero a sensible man in tho United States who doubts but that this uaurna- tion of dictatorial power will tend directly to prolong tho war indefinitely, to oontinue to deluge the nation in blood, ond to push us on to national bankruptcy ? Tho South has always maintained and sincerely believed that tho election of a Republican President and the establish- meutofa llepublioan party would consti - tutu a direct attack upon their domestic in stitution of slavery. They have ascrtod and behoved that the union and harmony r.i. . it i i , r ot tho States would be deemed of second- iufuc uy tuo party ,n compan- ouu u. auoiiuon oi slavery many 7eaw of meddlesome interference, of abuse and vituperation on tho part of their ora- tor, editors and pamphleteers, long since convinced the Southern mind that tUCV had nothing to hope from this party but' fa. 1 i""1 uuk oittor, persistent and uncompromising ' hostility to tbeir domestic institution and their material interests. With these itn--pressious the South rushed into rebellion, and our ecctional and partisan rules ac cepted the contest with tho end aud aim of exterminating their Southern enemies aud slavery at thc same time. And what has the result proved 1 Simply lhat tho South erners wcro right; that the war had not neon wagcu lor tno restoration ot tbe Un- ion and thc future fraternity of the States, tho Constitution, and has graciously al butfor tie abolition of slavery and the ! lowed his Souther subjects to uxut, pro forcible perpetuation of Abolition sway! vided they will adopt his radical nearo over this once free llepublic.

The prompt and patriotic notion of Sey raour of Now York and Parker of New Jersy, arc fresh in tho recollection of all; and one would supposo in tho mind of no one more vivid than that of Curtin him self. And so supposing, we should look to the Annual Messago of tho Governor of Pennsylvania, for a generous recogni tion of the services of those Patriotic Gov ernors, in our dofonce, at tho hour of our ,6oro need, and to thanks fairlv and hear f,iy rendered, for such immense assistances the pcoplo of Pennsylvania would all say, " AtllCU 1 But not only is there no such recogni tion, but Gov.

His fright or something clso quite a: strong must have driven from his head what hu did. The following is all Curtin says, of 'Now York and Now Jerscv, Governors or troops. It is a disnraco to tho state. though not to Curtin, for nothiug can dis grace him. He is beneath that ulrcady. Curtin says : Tho rebels having actually ontcrod the State in sonic force, auu the approach of mcir wuoiu army being imminent, tho President made a requisition for militia from this and some of the ncigboring States, and several regiments from Now York and New Jersey wore promptly sent, and our own volunteer militia begau to assem ble. Search his Message and you will Gnd nothing moro ; and jou would hardly sup pose from that, that Curtin in his terrible fright had sent to Seymour such a tele gram as the following. Governor Sey mour in his message says : On the second day ol July I received lnc following dispatch from the Governor il;m Jn, 8 18M , To His Excellency Governor Seymour Send forward more troops as rapidly as possible ; every hour increases the neces sity (or a largo force to protect Pennsyl vania.

Hoi'kinh Dear- Sir : If iu these terrible times tho community could bo surprised at any thing which can hap pen, they would assuredly bo astounded with tho bold and revolutionary attempt, now being made by tho party in power, to override the constitution, and to usurp tho powers of our Statu Senate. Nothing can bo plainer than tho con stitutional rtquircinont that tho "General Assembly shall moot on tho first Tuesday of January, in over year," ond that then "each House shall chooso its Speaker, and other officers,'' Not only is tho Sonata authorised and dircctod to choose its Speaker, and tho Houso of Representatives to choose its Speaker, but each Houso, (that is, evert llouie,) as it is constituted when tho General Assembly meets, shall chooso ita Speaker aud other officers. This has been tho construction of those sections of the Constitution which haw ob tained without tho interruption, and with out question front any quarter, from tho adoption oC tho constitution, in 1790, un til tho meeting of tho Genoral Assembly, iu 18G1. Tho Speaker of a former "House'' (as each branch of the Legis lature is denominated,) only presides un til thc credentials of a ntio "House" arc laid before him. Then he must rciire. His duties have been performed, and his p mors are ended. This is not only ac cording to the constitution, but it is in strict coulormity with the cxpericuoo of thc past. John Tod, afterwards an eminent Judgs of the Supremo Court of Pennsylvania, and one of the first lawyctrs in the State) eo rcau tho constitution, when, at the meeting of tho General Assembly, in De- cemoer, ioiu, uo iook uis seat on the floor of the Senate, aud was re-elected to the chair which ho had iuat vacat,,!.

DahvUIc Inleliinicif. Important to Drafted Men in 1002. Hon. Wil.iam Whiting. Solicitor of thc War Deportment, delivered an opinion, j sonic time since, on the question of liabil ity to servo, of men dratted in Pennsylva nia, in IfcfivJ, but who have never been mustered into birvice. Thc following is thc Opinion: Militia men drafted under laws ot tLe Stato of Pennsylvania, uot having been muktercd into thc service of the U. S. eaunot lawfully bo treated as de.-erters. Inasmuch as thc number of troop and tho length of their Bervice in tho different States, havo been or will be taken into consideration by thc President', so as to equalize the eanie among the tho States iu tho draft which is soon to be ordered uuder thc act of I8UU, and as the deficit of Hoops of Pennsylvania will thus bo made up, it is my opinion that no fur ther proceedings bhould be taken in rela tion to the persons drafted last fall. From a Special. Despatch to the Philad elphia Inquirer More than ten thousand Africans have perished in Memphis and its vicinity, under the treatment of their Yankee bene factors, The negro has beooma a pest to every newly formed Yaukeo community in thc Valloy of tho Mississippi.
