DAILiY POST. Ttie Union am it wnn: The ConMlitntion am it In! FRIDAY MORNING, JUNE 27. 49" Reading mailer on every page. ANOTHER. TRAITOR. Senator Browning, of Illinois, tlio p.u tieular personal and political friend of President Lincoln, has taken a very dan gerous step, the consequence of which no one can contemplate without serious ap prehension. T.iko Senator Cowan, the gentleman trom Illinois is not altogether disposed to follow in the wake of the fan atics. He has his own ideas about public questions, and remembers that there is such an instrument in existence as the Constitution, which he has taken a solemn oath to protect, observe and defend. In the discussion of tlm conliscation biil on Wednesday, the Illinois Senator tlm.; al luded to the crotchets of that persistent agitator, Charles Sumner, lie said; are now in a great struggle to se cure constitutional liberty. Jf,' h, this struggle, the Constitution is overthrown by rebel or by loyal men. or both of them, the people have bled in vain. The Sena tor from Massachusetts [Mr.Sumner | had brought Joncard novel views in stirniorf 01' this measure— such as mould in themsebis destroy all unity, and arrrthr.ar the Con stitution. His arguments in luvor of con fiscation were drawn from the old colonial jaws, or English law. and cannot ho bind mg on mi. as they are not in anv way bound by the provisions of the Constitution, if we have the power to pass a conliscation hill, that power must be derived from the Constitution. The example ol ancient nations gives us no authority." Sumner declares tlim be lias heard enough ot this twaddle about the Consti tution ; and Hen Wade save that the mini uho now. talks about it is a traitor: but it seems that the onlv aide lawvers in tin* •Senate still cling to that snored iustrumeni. reminding us of i|,« better days of the Uepublie, when great men adorned our National Councils. Places tilled by 'Web ster and his cotemporaries, who were all the time teaching the nation to revere the Constitution, are now occupied |, r men who trample upon it. Mr. Browning informs the country ilint Sumner's theory not only violates the Con stitution, but is'calculated to destroy it : yet this same Sumner is the idol of Abolitionism throughout the country. The set of lunatics of Ihe Pittsburgh t-ascltc .school not only support .Sum ner in all his etlbrls to v iohilo the Con slitutio". but the traitors denounce cvci v niau, oven in tln-ir own partv. who will not adopt their infernal doctrines.— Observe their persecution of Senator Cowan 1 There lias been nothing propos ml, calculated to aid liie government lo crush the rebellion, that lie has not sup-, ported: but.like Browning, lie lias bis own convictions of constitutional duty, and be cause he has, and is possessed ol'sailKeienl spirit and manhood to avow them, lie is set. upon by every miserable Abolitionist in the State. Ihe men like Browning and Cowan, now in the public .service, who arc resisting the efforts of lunatics In destroy thecharter of American liberty, will be remembered with na much affection as those heroic men who are now risking and giving their lives to prostrate Southern treason. ] n .March, ISnO, when Webster arose in the Senate! to combat the then new idea of •• an im pressible conflict," l,e did not exhibit as much true moral courage as do these Kc- publican Senators who now resist the •ot abolition. Ibe great expounder then spoke to mi inflamed country ; he, like Mark Antony, said “hear m.* |V,,■ my In- was heard anil In- stilled the storm; he quitted the lashing billows oI agitation, and the causa of the Union was again triumphant. His great sentences uttered upon that, occasion are now incoi - pornted into our school hooks, and SO it will be witli the spneehes these statesmen who are nmv gallantly struggling to prostrate rebel lion, and at. the same time preserve on Constitution from Abolition violation.- Even should the madness of the hourdrivi these men into involuntary reliremei they can, in their seclusion, console the selves with the reflection that they wr piostrated in a conflict lor the preservation of their country’s Constitution. This will repay them lor lost position, and be a shield against the sneers and denunciations of malice and proscription. Hut we cling to the hope that “thesohcr. second thought" will soon begin to assert its power, when this fell spirit of Northern fanaticism will I be buried in the same deep pit with crush ed rebellion. I HOST. JOHN COVODE, “JJon. .lohu Covodo lias been again in vited by a large number of his constitu ents, without regard to party, to a »nin allow the use of his name for re-election He has declined to become a candidate! and urges a convention to meet and nomi nate some one more lit to represent, the District, and aid the country by his coun sels in Washington. He replies that his time, the coming summer and fall, will be occupied at Washington upon the Commit tees he is now serving, ami that he will he unable to mingle in the coming political j contest, dcciiiiihj the country'x interests <>/’ Jar more tminirluncc."

Me is Inll.v as pious as Moorhead or McKnight, but has more practical shrewdness than either. The fact of his declining another race for Congress is evi dence of this. The other two wish to go hack again, as if they hadn't already done the country their full share of mischief. THE NEW TARIFF BILL. I he Philadelphian Sort!, .1 m.rbau. tin leading Bcpubliean paper of this Slate, alludes ill the following manner to the tiew Tarilf bill repotted by Thaddeiis Stevens. L'niike the Pittsburgh Oiiietle, the i\orth American is m,t entireiv ab sorbed in schemes for negro i.-imLnelpn lion, but has a thought for the interests of the white manufacturers and laborers of Pennsylvania. Our Philadelphia enlcm pory remarks: 'flic new Tarilf bill reported by the Committee of Ways and Means, which wc print this morning, proves, on exainiua tion, to be a very dilfereiit document front that which the public have been led to 1 lte synopsis which was pre pared lor the newspapers represented a very diflereul bill-at least in all that relates to iron. ]| Imd nunn ylven nut that, the principle upon which the hill was baaed was to increase the duties upon all articles by an amount equal to the t-,\- tmposed in the now excise bill which yes terday passed |, ot h hen.-;,--, and bniv awaits the signature of the President to become a law. The loyal ami patriotic mamtiiu! mvr of Pennsylvania, engaged in the iion lm- i liess, were perfectly willing, and indeed were anxious to pay their share of the cost ot the rebellion, provided ibis principle was fairly and equitably carriod out. They have been obliged to advance the wages ol their employees It) to’Jitper cent., because full one-third of their hands have g,en’ to battle for their country. They have seen not only their own articles ~f liimiiifacture heavily taxed in the Kxcise bill, wiih.mt a protestor murmur, but nl-,. a i.n upon coal, tile largest jiom ot ran material used in the making of iron, because they knew ilia: the govornnie 11: must Ini.c mum-v. and that laves mu-t be i.

This move was proclaimed a great strategic feat,-hut military men knew it was a great strategic defeat, that did not exhibit, ttnv general ship whatever on the part of 'the rebel commander. This has pul tin- linishim. touch upon Beauregard. Ilis lain troops have, lost confidence in him. ami he Is an acknowledged incompetent. Gen. Beauregard lias turned overt,, Bragg Ins comnmml in the Mi-sissippi valley and gone to liichmoml. Two ex planations are given id this proceedin'.' One is that he goes Hast to take com mand, and another that he goes there to explain the evacuation of Corinth. To take command at liichmoml would he to supersede both Johnston ami He,,. John ston, it is true, is laid up from his wounds received at. Fair Oaks, and Hoe isG.-nerul’- m-Chief of the Confederate army, hut the latter would hardly content himself to sit down in his office and merely furnish plans, when, as 1m may think, fhere is a chance for glory in the held. To pu Beauregard m command would only lm ti convince the Confederate army that Ilia vieneial hail Ih-imi si*ice|.o«l <>u account o a supposed ability to conduct a retreat a at. Corinth—a species of war at which’, 'i must lie confessed, all tin- relnd olliccr have shown themselves adept. And he sides, it, is known that Jell' Davis is no friendly to Beauregard. The other ~.\pla nation is a good deal more plausible, a ’ we take if that it is tin: correct one of t two That evacuation of Corinth needs exj.la Uton. The general impression is that e abandonment of the place was because Heauregard liad remained he would have | neen very hadlv whipped: but this simple and exhaustive elucidation will not be :u- I ceptcd by the .secessionists. Iter the bat tle of Shiloh I lean regard telegraphed to Richmond that lie had fallen bach t„ <;h r . inth, which he said he could hold. In his report of the fight he stated that Corinth was the “strategic point of the war." | n an address to his troops he said: "bet the impending battle decide our fate, and add a more illustrious page to the history of our revolution—one to which our children will point, with noble pride, saying ‘our fathers were in the battle ol Corinth.'- ' ttoshall meet our foe in strength ■ that should give us victory!'' Bragg had j indulged m similar language. Said he: lou will encounter him in your chosen position, strong by nature and improv ed by art, away from his main reliance— gunboats and heavy bakeries-and. for the first time in this war, with nearlvequal numbers. ~ • ■ \\ e l lilV e, then, but to strike and destroy, and as the enemy's -tii resources are concentrated here, we shall no t on j y redeem Tennessee, Keu ucky and Missouri at one blow, but open the portals of the wholcNorthwest.' 1 Why ]■ then, did not these blustering warriors condescend to light? This is what Beaure gard Ims been called upon to explain.' Jeif Mavis evidently wants him to give an ac count, of himself. YVhcn President Lincoln’s proclamation calling out To.ooo volunteers was issued— a proceeding which was received by the Confederate Congress with “ shouts of laughter’’—some jubilant Southern poet sent over the wires the following stanzas: .reil Davis reply is brief and cart; 1' ~rt .Mlinter .-, ours and nobodv’s hurt. w ith paixban. mortar and petard, tv t: tender Abe our Beauregard," It may ho that Beauregard is to go hack again to Charleston to help defend that devoted city from the storm 1m had so mueli to do m arousing, hut we think Cor inth has pretty much settled that officer.

Gas Consumers and Gas Compa ;f' &,.#%. .BiMf .Sv ■ :A case of'intejretst togas consumers in every citytnd State lias . recently been decided by the Supreme Court of ;the State of Wisconsin. In 1857,. Sidney Shepherd applied to the Milwaukie Gas Company for gas to light his store in that city. He was informed that he could have it if he would sign the application book endorsing the printed rules of the company. He refused and the gas was denied him. He sued the company and gained a verdict of SI OO damages. The case was carried to the Supremo Court, where it was decided that the company had the exclusive right to make and soil the gas: was bound to supply it on reason able terms: that applicants might be re quired to sign an agreement that is rea sonable.: and that the following rules of the company were not reasonable : ‘•That the Company shall at. all times, by their agents, have access to the premi ses to examine the gas apparatus, or re move the meter or service pipe. That the Company reserves the right to cut off the service pipe to protect the works against fraud. That the fittings, after the admis sion of the gas, must not be disconnected or opened, either for repairs or extensions, without a permit from the Company. v Immediately after the commencement of the suit, Mr. Shepherd made another de mand and tenderVif money for gns, and was again denied. His store was without gas nineteen months. He brought another suit against the Gas Company— the pre vious judgment having been” paid. At the County Court, the plaintiff was non suited. He carried his ease to the Su premo Court, where the non-suit was re versed, and the jury touml a verdict in favor of the plaintifffor Sir, no. The Com pany appealed to the Supreme Court, and that Court affirmed its last judgment, amounting with costs to SIKOo.' and there the matter rests.
