The plea of the Attorney Gen etal was masterly. It wnsclenr, concise a. d conclusive, and its simple reasoning is com prehensible by every body. The reply of Mr. O'Oonor was adroit and able ; but it did not deny the conclusion of the Attorney General that the power claimed for the court \H virtually the absolute supreme power of the Government. Indeed, Mr 0 Conor, although asserting the old dogma of the three co ordinate branches of the Govern ment, substantially denies it by claiming power for the Supreme court fo denounce in advance of its operation a law of Congress and to order the President r.ot to obey it. Thathocalls itan "net'' of Congress instead of a law is of no importance unless ho holds that no act of Congress is to be considered a law until tho court certifies its constitu tionality. Mr. Stansbery's positt»n in, that the Peor gia petition claims for the Supreme court a veto superior to that of the President; a power to stay ever law of Congress before it proceeds to execution, and before any case lias nrisen undei it; a power which may lie invoked whenever nominal parties can be found to annul laws which the people con* sidor wholesome and necessary, and which they instruct their representatives to pass. Moreover, it claims that the Supreme court shall settle the most vital of all our politi cal questions of the present time whether the late rebel States ore still States in an entirely undisturbed relation to the Union, Mr. O'Conor rejjied that the Attorney General's argument conceded that Georgia is a State in the Union. But if it be such a State Congress l.jisno more constitutional power to regulate the sufl'iage in Georgia than in New York or 'pioud Massachusetts.' Indeed, much of the aiguineut uf Mr, O' Conor was merely a repetition of the Demo cratic speeches in Congress against the Mil itary Bill. Like them he discussed the question as if there had been no war. Like them ho entir.'ly omitted to state that Con gress, which is constitutionally author z d to make war, can alone determine when war is at an end, and what measuris the secu» lity of the country demand. Like them he omitted to state, that ns the surrender left Georgia and other States without a civil government, congrtss is constitutionally au. thorized to guarantee such a government tc all of tlieiu. Like theui he docs not state that Congress is the sole judge of the meas ures necessary to give effect to the (Emanci pation Amendment, ilis argument, like the Democratic speeches, leaves the aotual ei'uation out. The doctriue of Mr. O'Conor'* argument is fatal to the costitution and to the c unity. It erects the Supreni* court into a political power. If the judges may control the Leg isluture. yet are appointed without popular election and for life, the people are delrMid •d of their sovereignty and the whole gov ernment is suoverted. This point is c>>n» olosively treated in S. G. Fisher's "Trial of the Constitution"—a remarkable lished by Lippencott, in Philadelph a, in 1862, when the present questions were still prospective. Speaking of the very dogma advanced by Mr. O'Conor, Mr. Fisher say; " Such a doctrine must in the end destroy the Judiciary. The people will not bear a political power whioh is independent of their control. If the Judijiary exercises such power, it must become rtprtnenlaliee, which is thu nature of all political power under free institutions." If the Supreme court may decide whether Georgia is a State; if it may pronounce any law of Congress invalid, and forbid the President to execute the laws, then Jefferson was oorreot in saying 'hat the court would prove to be the chief sou toe of danger to our liberties. If Mr. O'Conor's argument be sound the supreme power ot this nation is lodged in a body of nine men erho hold their office for life. It a blind man should affirm that there is no light, an atheist that there is no God, and An owl that there is no darkness, it would be liard to gay whioh was the veriest owl of the three.

SUNDRY HUMBUGS, Th* Am'rican Agriculturalist says: 'Since our last we have received a'»out two hun dred letters from difierent parts of the coun try with swindling xchemes and circulars, and accounts of imposition and cheating by the humbug opera'ors Many ot the«e re fer to parties described in this journal last month and previously.

Ka.ih division and corps coin lion der knew this sad condition of affairs. They were all summoned to a council of var, to oe held at hea iquarters at one o'clock at night. They were the saddest steps ever taken by that band oi devot'd hearts. Fifteen thousand brave s 'ldiers, dead or dying, or wounded, were lying on the fi. Id hard by. One af er another entered, and after mak ing a noiseless salute, silently tank their S'a s. Uenerals Sclnaeld, Meade, Burn side, Sickles. Howard, and others, 1 believe were there. Not a word was spoken. A lull half hour thus passed by. Their emo tii.ns were too deep for utterance. Hopes of millions hung on the decision of that council. At length General Grant tiek<*d each one in succession il he had any advice to proffer. Each one auswered with a-ad monosylahle, "no!" The commander then wrote a few lines, and handed the slip to General Meade, and he retired. This was repeated until al' were gone, and the General was left alone. One of the staff of a division commander, wno was sick, was the last to retire, and he is authority for the above. All were ignorant uf each other's order Thev felt as-ured that retreat bad been di rected. Any other alternative would have been believed to be madt.e-s. Ilad they known that the older Lad been given to ad* Vance, instant and universal mutiny would have been raised. That eloquent silence l»r which he ha- ever been noted, was the key IO his success there. The next morning each eorps moved, and General Lee, the iusti.nt he perceived it, with vehemence uxclaimed. "Our enemy have a leader at lust, and our cau.-e is loatl" fie had bid bis officers the night before to let their soldiers .deep long. But now he saw the army «h"m he thought utterly de feated, moving around between him ami the ba-e of his supplies. He hastened to begin retraeing his course, and confessed to an artillery offlcer of the confederate army that the doom of their ctyise was sealed. Independent Order of Good Temp lers. In 1851, this Temperance organisation, now so popular and so wide spread, had an obscure origin in one of the small towns uf Western New York. Fir a few years after it was instituted little was hi ard of the so ciety, but for the past twelve yt ars its pro gress has been steailily onward, until it row h's Grand Lodges in every State of the Union but five, also in all the British Pr iv inees, with upwards of one million members all pledged to total abstinence and prohibi tion. As an instance of the growth of the Order we may mention that in 1863 there were less than thirtv Lodges, or societies, in all Pennsylvar ia; now there are over three hundred of these Lodges in this Common wealth; and we are inf .imed by one of the Grand Lodge officials, that there are but six counties at present in our Sta'e, without any Lodges, and to thcce the Grand Lodge lecturers have been dirc.-ted togo and organ* ize Lodges in each of them at once, so that at the annual session of the Grand Lodge, which is to be held in Allegheny city, com mencing on June 13th, the Giand Lodge officers may be able to report the Order es tablished in every county. Rapid as Ims been the increase of the order in PennsyN vania, it ha- been equally sueees>ful in other States, from Maine to Ca'ifornia. In Mich igan there are four hundred Lodges! The session of the Grand Lodge, to cme nff as stateil, will call together about five hundred delegates from the various Lodges of the State, and doubtless a portion of the time will be devoted to public meetings in the Halls and churches when the Orators of the Order will have un opportunity or ad dressing the public generally. Every sub ordinate Lodge rs entitled to send one rep resentative to the Grand Lodge. Faery Lodge having one hundred members on the 30th of April, is entitld to send two mem bers. The coming Grand Lodge session, owing to the zreat increase of the Order during the past year, will be of more :han ordinary interest.— Ex- SLANDER.

THE FIRST BLOW. Cable dispatches may blow hot and blow cold on the subject of the critical complica tion ot iiffnirs in Europe; Mr. I'euter may throw n sop to the bears one day.and pat bulls on the shoulder the next; but under lying telegraphic tergiversation and gamb ling manoeuvres, there seems to be the plain, hard faot that war between France and Prussia is a necessity. There is a point of mutual distrust and doubt, of half fear, half confidence, to which no two races or nations can arrive without becoming absorbed in and infntu ited with the desire to try con clusions and settle the vexing question of superiority. France aud Prussia have reached that point. Both are tossed upon the sea of popular passion ; both are. so fur as the course tliey shall pursue, beyond the control of their hehnswen ; aud like two grtMt ships drifti»g toward each other on an angry sea, certain and disasterous collision ig only a question of time, War is a neoessity to France as a means of working off the billion- irritation which has been accumulating ever since the battle of Sad iWn. To let Prussia rest up:in tho laurel-* gathered there and quietly consoli date her nearly forty millions of population into a homogenous empire would be to ad mit that France had lose the commanding lead in continental politics which with tacit unanimity had been accorded her. Such a humiliation is more than Gallo pride can stand. The typical national bird involun tarily rußb's his feathers und utters a crow of defiance at the idea. War is a necessity to Napoleon. No man can play with fire with more adroitness and audacity than lie; no one can perceive more readily the mo ment when the fire will Imdly scorch, or per haps destroy him, if it be not permitted in sonic way or other to burn itsolf out. To him victory on tho Rhine is tho alternative to revolution. War is a necessity to Prussia, as the speediest instrumentality for combining in a common cai se the various countries which now are but loosely united under her govern ment or protection, liisniark's heart is sot tip annot endure a service which compels him to witness nnd take part in such cruelties as wire pui poselv practiced at the prison. He addressed the letter to Mr. Davis, because be believed him to be a man of honor and a Christian, and that the terrible treatment meted out to pris oners wa9 certainly unsanctioned by liiui. The soldier urged that ho might be shielded from exposure for writing the letter, nnd that President Davis would have the matter investigated and tho abuses corrected. Tho indorsement on this letter shows that Davis received it. The only action taken, how ever, was to refer it to the rebel General Winder, tho brute who was directly respon sible for the shooting and starvation at An dersonville. The document, with its in> dorsement, constitutes tho clearest proof of Davis' personal responsibility for the treat ment of prisoners that has jot cometo light. There are also two letters in posses-don of one of tho authorities, from a rebel surgeon at Andersonvillo to the Richmond authori ties, one protesting against the troatment of Federal prisoners; and a subsequent one showing tlint the first had been received and answered, and he consequently, in thi9, apologized for his previous letter, and sayt he did not understand when he wrote that there were ''diplomatic reas ns," and inans other part of the letter, "international rea* pons" for the cruel treatment, tho virtual admission being that the orueltics were de liberately resorted to for the purpose of forcing an exchange of prisoners, in order that the rebel army might be strengthened. TIIF. Revenue Department has devised an instrument for detecting whiskey frauds, whereby the manufacturers will be compel led to pay the tax on all the fluid they make. So much for the money consideration—very important no doubt, nnd, withal, nearly re lated to a certain moral aspect of the subjoct. But if the quality of the fluid inanufacturod could bo ascertained and nil but the very best destrojed, nearly, if not tho entire mor al ground would be covered and little would remain to l;o done; unless, indeed, tho man ufaotuiß of whiskey were confined to medi cinal anil mechanical purposes. No doubt it is very important the Government should get the taxes—for the money is needed. But tlfe livesof men are precious, and if the Rev enue Department will invent an instrument that will save them as well as the money, by insuring as much certainty as to the quality as the quantity of whiskey made, we think it will be found a state of things has tieen introduced into the country that will do more towards paying the national debt than any Revenue measure yet devised. —Pilt. Com'l. THAT there will tie no immediate war in Europe is rendered certain. The London conference will insure pcac6—for a time. That it will secure permanent peace is scarcely probable, but it will give France nnd Prussia time to prepare for the contest which A'ictoria seeks to avert -the time for preparation which, it is not improbable, tolh mostdesire. The question of Suprem acy underlies the whole business, and it is scarcely probable that any conference will be able to devise any permanent settlement of that question. D is the growth and at titude of Prussia which irritates the French Emperor ; and it is because she feels herself strong and capable that induoes Prussia to irritate him. The elements are n"t such ns can be handled by a conference to the satis faction of either Side. Ultimately thequcs ti"n most be settled ir the field ; the confer ence is more likely to give t'tne for France and Prussia—nn - '. as for that matter, all Europe—to prepare for the stupendous con - I test.— Pilt.
