kwell e llr. Speaker, how long were the Achnik
nistratiou bound by these tbeirsolems;publie;-,
and reiterated pledgee ? Wb', sir. jest matff,!
on the filth - of th ose sole assormeoss - ss'
million mei mere induced a. abandon the. ,
i t ,
pursuits of peace, and rash nto the armies
of their country to light in th ' sacred cause
of constitutional government. - Then, when,
the physical snit . of the Government was
deemed sufficiently strong for the overthrow'
of the South, the mask is east. off , a new pur
pose and object for the war is boldly avowed
and proclaimed. The hideoul form, and re
pulsive featurei of abolitionism were at pet
disguised in .the deceptive and alluring girb
of patriotism. It was no longer to be a war
for the. preservation of the Union under the
Constitution, but in reality for ite.destruo
tion, and in the forum of conscience as well
as in that of the supreme law, pieces the radi;
cals in the attitude - of rebellion and 'Two
lotion.
Of the abolitionists as s party, nearly s
; quarter of a century ago. the' true ohareuter
;was happily tOneited of by. the . peneil„ctf
'Henry Clay. Re says:
' .. With them 'the rights of pioperty are
nothing, the deficiency of the powers of the
Geperal Government Is nothing, the acknowl—
edged and incontestable powers of the States
are nothing.. Civil war, a ',dissolution of the
Union, and the overthrower a government in
which are concentrated the proudest" hopes of
the civilised world, are nothing. A single
ides hie token possession of their minds, and
.onward they pursue it, overlooking all bar
riers, reckless and regardless of all conse
quences." .
This partwu then small and insigni
ficant, but its numbers have increased until
we now behold M. - numerous and influential
enough to control \ the administration of the
Government. Theirs nflueue wu first felt
"in Interfering with the, conduct of the war,
and in ostracising and euhufing from com
mand the generals who had manifested a res
pect for the Constitution, and who had shown
skill in the field. They were not satisfied
with passing a bill offering, protection and
freedom to the slaves of rebel misters who
should come--within our lines,. not satisfied•
with directing the physical, power of the
country to the suppression of armed resist
ance to the authority of the Government, • but
they proceeded to carry the war directly
against the property, the homes and firesides
,
of peaceful noncombatant residents oflie
seceded States. This win in violation, not
only of the Federal Constitution, but of every
principle of public law. While the effect of
this policy has been to unite the South, ths
proclamations of the 22.Cand 24th of Septem
ber, 1862, and of the let et Jan, 1863, have
signally failed to disturb the relation of the
slaves beyond the' hostilepresence of our
armies.. The President, i is true, made a
timid and weak resistanse the adoption of
l io
this policy, but the abolition pressure was .
imperative,e,nd at length maul:
A measure involving sue an utter diver
gard of party pledges, inch violent casting
aside of oonstitutional-obliga ions, inch dia
metrical opposition to the re ognized princi
plea and" to the usages of war, and such a
thorough adaptation to widen instead of heal
ing the breach ocessioned`by secession, could
not be expected'ito be received With unques
tioning acquiesc nee on the part of the law
abiding, Coned talon-loving masses of the
Niirtn. Hence vast stretches of authority are
usnrpsd, the indefinite power of . arrests is
assumed, and the‘time honored writ of habeas
oaspus is suspended,
Thtts, npoa the 'alleged ground of the in
sufficiency of the ordinary promises of. law•
to restrain disloyal practices, the military
powers raised into a superio:ity to the civil,
and martial law is extended over the whole
country. Persons not military are made H
abit to arrest without legal mein, lea sum
mary manner, npor* the indedinite charge of
“disloyal practices.° When so arrested they
ere also denied the privilege of that heredi
tary and constitutional shield of the liberty
of the citizen, the writ of Ashes corpus. Ras
it then, come to this, that in a Government
of the people, the people are less worthy to
be trusted than their rulers? In a nation
the freest and most enlightened open earth, is
the citizen to be told by the petty agents of
his own creation that his liberty is not safe
it his keeping, and that they, through an as
sumed superior intelligence must take it in
opecial charge?
Sir, what ,roan worthy of the name of &ea
rn-in will be reconciled to the loss of his
Priceless birthright of liberty, regulated by
law, by any such, tyrant's plea as that ? I
believe I do not misapprehend the character
of my countrymen, and that they will not
and ought not thus to submit to be spoiled of
their dearest right by any usurping band.
What! are the people to be deluded with the
idea that their liberties are to be preserved, or
'that the Government is to be saved in the act
of their destruction ? Are those sacred fire-
Side rights which the Anglo Saxon .brought
with him from his native forests in Germany,
and Which he has never since lived without,
to be trampled in the dist on any such flimsy
and specious pretext se this ? And have the
sad days of the Roman time under the forms
of thOrepublic, Oome lupon us so soon? Are
we to be the sport of imperial rule?
Sir, our institutions of government .are
crested and defined by law, and. to the rigid
observance of the law we mast Mid their ad
ministrators. This is oar only safety, as 46i
history of free States has always taught, De
mme it shows that "power is ever steeling',
frQto the gassy to the few." It is then a new
thing, in our history that 'the ordinary pro
cesses of law are not found sutScient to secure
the Government in the exercise of its legiti
mate and proper authority . It is' not only a
new thing among ourselves, but is unprece
dented in the history of that people from
which chisty we derive our origin, and from
which we have inherited largely our laws and
free institutions. Never, in the history of
Englend, even In the meat turbulent times - of
revolution, has it bees conceded to the mon
arch to arrest persons not military, without
warrant issued upon legal charges Outlawed
under oath. Thor, the common-law proceed.
dates back so far in England that it can
not be determined when it began. It is, how
ever, guaranteed by Magna Charts. Charles I
i did, indeed, try the experiment of arbitrary
arreats upon vague and indefinite charges,.
like those of " disloyal practices," not pre
ferred upon oath, butwpon the mere arbitrary
motion of himself or members of the Privy
Council
The, subversion of the Constitution and
substitution of the monarch was
also attempted to be effected by the. Court of
High Commission and Star Chamber, .which
resembled the "courts martial or military
commission" of Mr. Lincoln's proclamation,
in not being governed by the common law or
immemorial customs and iota of Parliament,
butiadmitting for law the proclamation of
the Eiemitive, and grounding their iodation&
upon them. The English nation, however,
repelled the attempt with indignation ; and
by the celebrated Petition of Right, arbitrary
imprisonments and the exercise of martial
law were abolished, and the obnoxious courts
nppreued. - r

by beautiful imagery, in which he portrayed
the ancient grandeur of European works of
art, and thlicitlee•whose -crumbling walls tell
the history_,ef r theworld., He spoke of Eng—

that between lguilinittend inierina there were
two great barrier", " The Atlantic Ocean sad
the London Titus." In harmony with the
spirit of the doininant party, he devoted some

accounts to koontletted.peete. He repeated

Letter Ires' Rani. Dr. Jolla Nett, Prot.
Union College, SakeseetadY,
Since I first publicly acknowledged the
iciest benefit which I received from the skill

,Liththill, in Mud is

ly pared upon Me frem all parts of the coun
try, from parties desiring to learn the partic
ulars of my pus, and I am indeed surprised
at the number'df individuals who are affected
staffer t 9 the, manner in which I have been
and pirefire feel it more and more a sacred
day which I owt:Serthiller: sufferers to direct
ham to a proper and reliable source to obtain
the benefit they so much covet, and which so
many afflicted one* lave hitherto sought in
vain, just as r hid WI 'piilviotis to applying
to Dr. Lighthill.

site matter, and area a gourds cf the greatest
annoyance and discomfort' to me. Last year
the other ear also. became ,dissaled, and both
ears disobaird Mysllosi matter, very profuse
and highly offensive. My hearing became
Very much impaired,, and' the dischirge pro
duced the gamiest debility ifbody and depres
sion of spirits.' I applied to my family-physi
Man and other practitioners, without deriving
any benefit, and almost despaired of being
'restored to health, when, providentially, I
applied to Dr. Ligethi/l. Under his treatment
, my hearing began to hoprOte 'at once, and
continued to 'do so until, in a comparatively
',short Ma c beth - ars were healed, the die
ohari-rentiived and, my hearing rastoind. et
'firet Ifeared the cure would not be permanent,
,or that the stoppage of a discharge 'of so long
standing might prciye detrimental to my gen.
'eral health-41feet which' I find a great 'many
eitertain ,in reined to removal of discharges
'from the ear. My eiperience, however, has
proved, conclusively, that my apprehenlias
ware entirely groundless in both respects, for
both airs - are as well, and my hearing as good
at present, as the day I left off treatment,
and the stoppage of the discharge, instead
of proving detrimental 'my bealth, has' given
me the_ highest elasticity and vigor of body
and a flow of spirits not experienced for a
long time previous. '
I wish the above statement might serve as
a 'general answer to those interested, but
should one or the other Irish to apply to me
personally or by letter, I will cheerfully sat
isfy all. reasonable demands upon my time.
I svitil myeelf of this opportnaity to again
publicly express my deeply felt gsatitnde to
Dr. Lightbill, - plunn I es►eem u i gentleman

confidence may be placed.
