only proved. what the Abolition leaders,
who pass , d the bill in Congress, over and
over again admitted. How many time.
dni TR AWD EUS STEVES: , , the feruelous
leader of the mejority, sneer at those who
talked of observing the Constitution,
which they had sworn 1..) support ? H ,
treated that instrument, as he formerly
did his conscience, by "kicking it to th
devil He never claimed, during the
whole of the last Congress, to be govern
ed by Constitutional consideration.; his
justification, for violations of the Con.ti
tution. was the law of "necessity," con
tending that the Constitution did no. con
tain sufficien: power to enab.e the Gov
ernment to suppress the rebellion. He,
nod those who followed his lead, including
the President and his Cabinet, seemed
to forget that they held their places in th,
Government in pursuance of the very
Constitution which they found it uece.'ary
to set aside. Because, it necessity re
quires the destruction of that instrument,
there is it law to Raetain the President in
pcs.se..,on of his high otlice. .Judge
WOODY. A RD, in his able opinion, publistird
in yesterday's Post states his nositinn
very clearly in relation to those who pass

Bat, r,t .rt from all this, the present con
script:, n has proved s failure, and the
coming Congress will be compelled to alter

however, of serving their country, would
be to repeal it altogether, and with it their
other (obnoxious enactments, which have
done so much towards uniting the rebels,
while causing dissensions amor.g6l our•
selves. Let them repeal their partizan
enactments, and proclaim the war to be—
es they originally did—a struggle for the
supremacy of the Constitution and the
restoration of the Union, and the country
will, is the language of Gov. ANDREW,
"swarm with volunteers." But this they
will not do ; this war they c:-.nn , ,t afford
to c'ose until they us the armies to carry
the next Presidential election.
JEFF. DANIS' CORRESPONDENCE
Now that this year's elections are over
we presumn that we will have no more
publication of lettere, purporting to have
been written by prominent Democrats, at
different times, to JEFFERSON DAVIS. But
it is rather remarkable that in all the cap.
tured correspondence alluded to. and now,
we are told. in the possession of the War
Deportment. there ha; not appeared any
thing from those force patlicte Brs - BOT
,LER, DAN S DICEINSOY, JOHN COCHRANE,
and fifty others, who are now the shining
lights of Abolitionism. These were the
parasites who encouraged the Southern
conspirators iu their Ireacon ; and fearing,
donbtles9, that ccrrepot.d.'.:uce might
one day turn up. they jcined Admiits•
(ration party to escape hang.ng It the
letter written before 'hp rebellion by JESSE
D. BRIGHT to DAVIS, was Bi:thole:A to
banish him from hie seat iu the Senate,
the advice of the men RUC ied to, encour
aging the rebellion. would. if found. show
them to be alders and abettors of treasdn.
Knowing this they joined the Ahol,tidn
iste and are not their noigies! d.cid:uters.
But the 1 t — important letter" publish
ed, found , n D.ivis . collection, and now
on file ''in the War Department," rathir
expoaes the series of iiterars tr . ..ics in
question. It was the epi tie purporting to
hare been written by som. ,, cne in IF , OO.
Ailudiug to it the irottl remarks;
"Some time since ,he War Department
nublisLed a lett( r purputting t writ ten
in 1S,;() by an anonymous carry
to J El F. DAvts, which contaiu,d
sition that in case a Republicn wa. elott.

sons were mentioned to Fill 1112 various
cabinet offices. Ibe Jour rf C,om

as onp of the cabinet mintst.i..rs mention—
ed was t HKn B. STANTON. Republican.
and another was (it nt:ral Rt. 911, who had
committed suicide months before the
letter purported to be written. With that
splendid disregard of common sense and
common honesty which distinguishes the
War Department, it returns to the charge
and officially affirms that the letter is bona
fide, and declares that the original is duly
filed in the archives of the department.
But the joke 01 the whole matter is that
THE PITTSB
that EluperiAth-ly I tyv.lbouri:al, .10
not knoAltty, C ' - itc,retary bTANi,.:, had
isihered the letter, declares in ii IE6I/e of
3ebterday, that "either the writer of the
filly letter was a fool, or the concocter of
it is a knave." This is rather rough on
Secretary STANTON." But, from the fol.
lowing, found also among this correa
r ondence, it will be seen that after the
election in 185 G, and four months after
Mr. BUCHANAN had been President,
I ) Avis was still receiving i tters. The
exposition made by the Journal of Coin
fierce, of the letter alluded to by the
World, and the following one purporting
t., have been written in June, 1i337, makes
us doubt the authenticity of the whole

A Grand System of Swindling
From the Wheeling Intelligeneer,
A few days ago we advertised for the
Government in our colume the sale of
several tons of old iron at Harper's Ferry
—the wrecks of the magnificent arsenal
that once existed there. Several of our
iron men Rent on to attend the sale. We
are informed by one of them, who has re
turned. and who bought a considerable
amount of the iron offered for sale, that
ou reathing the Ferry he and his compan
ions were at once approached by a set ct
speculators who had arrived in advance of
them from Washington, B dtimore, Phila
delphia and other places, to see if they
would enter into a "ring' . to cheat the
Goverment and divide the profits of the
operation. The operation proposed was
this —To form a ring of all the buyers
on the ground and appoint certain ones '
to bid ice iron up to a certain price, say
half what it was worth.
IThey were then to let it go to some one
of their number, and the Government
being thus disposed of, the "ring - were
to put the iron up a second time, and
every purchaser was to bid his highest
figurer. the highest of course getting the
iron 11D-difference between what the iron
was bought at from the Government Ehl.d
what it sold for the second time to one or
Ir. re members of the ring, was to be paid
in dividends to each member of the ring.
For instance, if the iron had been bought
to $311,000 from the Government, and
put up again and struck off t? the "ring"
purchaser, or purchasers, for t 3100,000
there would, of curse, he •:-:' , 0,0110 to di
v..le, the purchasers getting their share cf
the dividends along with the other. This
rascally game our Wheeling men v:,..uldri i
go into, preferring, as they told the 9,
blond-suckers, to give the Government the
highest r rice that the iron was worth
And they did pay a good price fur the
iron bought, full s couch as it was worth,
and in doing so set an example to the no
principled cormorants around them that
must have been refreshing to their de
pravcd ideas of a business transaction.
The villains actually had the hardihood
to tell the buyers from Wheeling that the
game they proposed was the common one
practiced at all sales of the kind, and gave
that as one reason why it should be enter—
ed Itlt.o .A . the Ferry if 11313 i 9 ito, and
yin , Lt.:to do doubt it is. ibe attention of
responsible Government officials every
where ought to be directed to the fact.
A Substitute for Quinine
A New Orreans refugee. now residing
in Mobile. whilst on a visit to this section
some two or three weeks ago, informed
us that Dr. McFarlane, one of the oldest
and most distinguished physicians
of New Orleans, who died in that city
since the c - )mmencement of the war, bad
discovered what be considered a most
valuable substitute for quinine, and ex—
pres,ied. a hbOrt time before his death,
his deep regret that he should not live
long enough to see it tested throughout
the Confederacy. Ile substitute is the
leaves of the balsam apple. to be steeped
for tbree or four days in a bottle of whir•
key. Dose—one tablespoonful three
times a day. —Greensboro (Ala.) -Beacon.

WHILE one of the divers attached to the
wrecking schooner Sarah Jane. of Boston,
was operating in Newport harbor, recent
ly, he was attracted by some object butting
against his legs and body. He at once
found it was a huge shark, with distended
eyes, evidently wishing to make his ac
quaintance. The diver fetched him a wipe
across the snout with a heavy crowbar,
and the monster left, but quickly returned.
when another blow started him on his
travels, from which he did not return. If
the diver had retreated, doubtless it would
"have gone hard with him.'

Wonderful Escape
Duraig a skirmish with the guerrilla
Chalmers. near Wyott, Ylissis ippi, recent
ly, Major Malone, of the 7th Kansas had
a very remarkable escape While riding
along the front of the line of 3cr skim
idishers. in the darkness, his horse voi:ked
into an old well, about thirty feet Jeep,
and, with his rider, disappeared instantly.
e was drawn out by a line of
halters tied together. but the poor Lo se
was so badly injured by the tall that he
was dead the next morning. Strange to
say, the rider only received a few hard
bruises, not sufficient to disable him eve;
temporarily from service, and he was soon
astride another animal, and at the head
of hie men.
