l'ke Act' Belathig to Elie Supreme
Court.
-- The- President- and- his -;Democratic`
allies, having bein:OflAPkillY checkma
ted in their every move arid.effort to de
lay.and prevent reconstruction, have as
a last resort carried 'into the Supreme
Court some two or three test cases, as
.they term them, in refere,ilo to Con
gressional enactments uponibis subject,
Their reason - for selecting this method
as their last is based simply upon the
fact that a
_majority of the Supreme
Court.aaifow__constituted_is_made iigof
Johnsenites and embitAcAd Democrats.
Here, however, they'leem, again des
tined to disappointment, even in their
expectations; for, even should their pre
judiced and jaundiced majority -so far
forget their manhood, their moral obli
gations and their-scriptural inStructions
as diddhief Justic l e Taney, and his as
sociates in the infamous Dred Scott de
cision, Ctingfess. is' about providing for
the- emergency.- Already has a bill
passed the lower House requiring a two
tyrds Majority of the Court to aoree be
fore they can declare an act of Congress
unconstitutional.
That this policy of Congress is emi
nently proper and just. No man who
reads the Constitution can for a moment
doubt and yet, - our Democratic disunion
ists, simply because it pretaiiiees to tape
from 'them their last hope of, prevent
ing a speedy and equitable. reeOnstrue
tion, are raising the cry of usurpation
and-revolution. We have heat d this, so
often, however, that little attention need
be paid to it.. .
But, a few words- upon_ the_necessity
or this act, and the right of Congress . to
pass, it And first, the necessity : The
present Court, if we mistake not, is com
posed of a majority'in harmony with the
pro-rebel principles of Johnson and the
Democracy. Now, we. are of the nuns 7 '
ber who like to talk about and _believe
in the' purity and disinterestednes i s of
the Judiciary:' But, when questions of
a purely political character, such as
would be the constitutionality of the re
construction acts, comes before the Su-
preme Court, we fear that it might be im
possible to obtain an iMpartial opinion.
Iliiman nature on the Bench is human
nature still, and we believe we do the
Judgei of the - Supreme Court no wrong,
when we say that they are subject to the
same pfhjudices and passions upon this
subject, that rule and control men in
hUmbler positions. But, sty our oppo
nents, "is not Congress governed in its
legislation in the same manner?" We
answer, undoubtedly it is. - But, then,
it. must 'be recollected, that Congress
comes directly from the-people, and re
flects their immediate wishes and judg
ments, and, this being a ." government
" of the people, for the people and by the
people," while the members of the Su
- prome,Court,-appointed and-not-elected,-
are not supposed to know or understand
the- desires . and opinions,, of the'. tuas'ses,
but
. a safe guard tltrown aromid.the
will of the people, as expressed througl
their immediate, Representatives to re
„ quire ti two-thirds majority of the Bench
to concur in annulling a Congressional
enactment. Hence the necessity for
present action of Congress upon this
subject.
As to the right of Congress to pass a
law of tlis description, we caunot un
deritand how it can be questioned. . The
Constitution of the United States_ es-
presely_vesto in .Co*ese the authority
"to make all laws which shall be neces
sary and proper for carrying into execu
tion tho .41ad,alLothe.L.
:'poweravested IftlfeTcmstitution - in - th 0-
gofernment of the United States, or any
department — or — ofFicer — thereot" -- The
_ Supreme Court, therefore, being a de
partment of the fipvernment, Congiess
has the expressed constitutional author
ity to pass laws regulating the carrying
into execution of its powers. It has al
ways been an .admitted and. frequently
exercised power . .of Congress to deter
mine, by enactment, - the number' of the
Judges,. and,Why then' shonld GM' power
to regale:tone number 'necessary to con
cur in, ,opinion that
,would annul a
law-be questioned ? The Democracy in
making a'luss' about this' matter, as ' in
many' Other ,inatanceaysitioe the breaking
out of the slaiteholderki i rebellion, are
—endeavoring to stultify the principles and
opirileith'hold by them as a-party in, tbeir
earli,,,ia . lumerable days: , ,
The following, extract Jrom an article
in thel New York .2 1 ;ititite of Tuctlay
- lastiis a Most oonvineing argument upon
this inbjeot,' and, demonstrates that oven

goes, to the 4:ponse (of character) to invent
ono. It strangely says that the Constito 7
tion declares that "the Siipreme "Court

which is ii`erodefined, and not the Supreme
Court merely; and it is "cases in htw and
and • equity," not "all questions arising
-"under thjgConstitution," of which juris
diction is conferred on these' Courts. The
distinction is not merelyverbal - but histerV
cal and important. The Supreine Court
had fulfilled its proper, function of deciding
cases in law and equity many years before
Ahotheory was broached that it had the
.power to nullify a law of COngress - by de
ciding it unconstitutional, in such a manner
as would bind the Executive and Legislit-'
tiv_e branches of the Government._President.
Jackson held that the three co-ordinate
branches of the Government must interpret
the Constitution independently, each . for
itself, and that the construction placed 'on
it by Congress could not 'bind either the
Executive or Congthis. The whole doetrina
that the Supremo Court has a revisory jur-
Isdiction -over the laws of Congress, and can
sustnin or annul thern -at pleasure. accord
ing to the political bias of the judges, is
one of recent growth. It could - not: have
been foreseen by the framers of dip Con
-stitution, for no such power -exists 'in the
- Ugliest courts of-MOM.
to which-our Constitution is framed in
many respects. So far as the framers of the
Constitution showed n design to place the
ultimate - sovereignty anywhere, It was vest
ed in Congress, not in the Supreme Court.
But Slavery having a majority in the Su
preme Court, after it had lost it in Congress,
took refuge in its citadel, and Undertook to
erect it into a kind of supremacy over Con
gress and the Executive, like that which
the Mikado or Spiritual Sovereign of
Japan enjoys over the Tycoon, or Civil_
Emperor. The gradual accession or
usurpation of this function by the Supreme
- Court; coiriM.tilt into a political - 4d leg
islative branch of the Government. It be
comes really the ultimate Senate for super
vising the legislation of Congresg,_ without
whege assenting vote no law can he sind - th
have been finally passed. That such a po
litical power should Binge upon the , .mere
power to decide "eases in law and "equity,",
may be one of the logical effects of a writ
ten Constitution, just as-party nominations
to the Prsideney - aMa logical effect of the
Electoral College, but, like that, it was, an
unforeseen effect, and to claim that the
framers of, the Constitution Contemplated
that the Supreme Court should be lifted into
a Third House, or Upper Senate, of the
Legislature, with a revisory power over the
'other two bodies, and a veto on, the Presi
dent, is preposterous.'
hThe' Political Situation. at 114 as-
in!/ton
The events of the past 'week have
been full of importance to •the best in- -
Wrests - of the country. Congress; elect
ed by the loyal men of the nation, and
in' itself loyal to the core, has asserted
its siiplemacy and given an apostate
President-to -understand-that-in- this - Re: -
public the will of the people must and
shall be regarded and obeyed. Treason
to principle and justice, mayfor a - time
flourish and grow defiant, but the day of
humiliation and retribution is sure to .
come. The truth of this assertion is
now being appreciated by Mr. Johnson
in its fullest and bitterest form. Instead
of being the bold and boastful master of
the situation, he has claimed himself to
be for the past two years, he is now
found the humble and disgraced servant
of the will of the people, as expressed
through their Representatives. The fol
lowing article from the Berks and Schuyl•
kill. Journal, portrays the situation so
well and so truthfully•that we . give it
place :
"CHECK - TO rnr. KING."

the case were cliscusstd at some length ; the

The meting was called to order by Rev. I.
N. Hays,' Rev. S. S. Mitchell of Har
risburg, was appointed temporary Chairman, -
and Rev. H.. E. Niles _Secretary. The
Chairtrian welcomed . .the members of the
Convention to the city; and, expressed his
hearty sympathy with the,object'which had
brought them together. Most of the first)
evening was. spent in devotional exercises ,
and in hearing accounts of
.the Union Con
vention in Philadelphia last November. A
committee consisting',Of ono Minister and
ono Elder froln each denomination repro
sented,-was appointed to -nominate-Perma
nent officers and to report' suitable resolu
tions for the adopticur of the convention.
'On Wednesday morning (Jan. 15,1 after

o'clock,-the Convention assembled at 10
o'clock, and in accordance with the reportof
the Committee, 'chose Rev. I. N. Hays; . for

A. McGill,_Rey. W._P.Oochrah_and
F. Small, Esq., for Vice Presidents, and
Rev.- H.- E. Niles,rind Rev. W. H. Wallace,
for Secretaries. - •'
Tho same committee also reported the
following-preamblo--and-resolutione-wh ieh -
wore careftilly considered itonrby item, and
wore finally adopted viz:
Wo devoutly recognise the hand of a
merciful and gracious 'Providence
whole movement towards an organic. Union
of all the Presbyterian bodies itithis coan
'try: and in all the stops which 'have marked
,its progress thus far; in the inception - which
culminated in the late National Presbyterian
Convention in Philadelphia; in His wonder
ful presence and power in said convention,
cementing all hearts in love—inspiring
confidence, unity add charity -among the
brethren; and in developing-a'basis of union
as remarkable for its comprehensiveness as
for its brevity. In the cordial reception
which the basis of union has - met with in'
the churches represented, and in the clear
prophecy-in-this Providence of the speedy
'consummation of this glorious event, which,
we believe, will mark a new epoch
lifereligious pLour peclple;' and -0, His
adorable sovehigntY
praisci and itlfthe glory. , •
We also cordially 'adept the - basis of
UniOn proposed by the late convention in
Philadelphia, as follows:
I.
I. An acknowledgment of the Old and
Now Testaments to be the inspired, Word
of God; - .and the onlyinfailible.rule of faith:
and_practice.
It That in the United Church, the 'West:
;minister Confession of Faith 'shall be re"-
ceived and adopted, ai'containin,g the' eye-'
tern of doctrine t,aught, 'Ow Holy; Scrip-,
Ives, it bbiDs'Oridergtdodlilutt this Icolifes:-
sion is received in, itepi'oper historical; that
is, the Calvinistic ,1 , reformed sense.
Whilst the conamittee recommend the fore
going, basis of doctrine, they wish to be un
derstood_asrecognizing the orthodoxy pf
the largdr and - ihortirr'estrchisins - -df-the
Heidelberg catechism, and of the of
the Synod of pik. „,
That the, United Church' shall re
ceive and adopt the PresbYterian form of
church government.
IV.- The book of Psalms, which is - of
divine inspiration, is well adapted to the
Mato of JIM church in all ages and oircum
'stances, and should ho usedin. the• worship
of 'God. Therefore wo recommend that a
new and faithful version ofthe Psalms be,
provided as soon as" practicable. BR iffai - -
iiiifeh as various collections of Psalmody
are used in the different churches, a change
in this respect shall not be required.:
Wo further reconimend 4he holding of
parochial conventions by the pastors and
sessions of the different Presbyterian bodies
in immediate neighborhoods for conference
and prayer iplirelation to this great move
ment, and frr - the increased effusion of the
Holy Spirit upon all our ehurches,,and that
whenever practicable two or more ministers
or elders of the different Presbyterian
branches visit together from house to house
in their respective parishes for the promo
tion of personal piety in the hearts bf the
membership, for theonversion of sinners,
and as a means of uniting the whole moral
pow& of the Presbyterian Church of ever:) ,
community against error, and for the Tro
motion.of Christ's kingdpm in the world.
Tins report was ably advocated by the
' Chairman of the Committee, Rev W. Y.
Brown, mf the Presbytery of Huntingdon j
Rev. C. P. Wing, Rei. I. N. Hays, Rev.
J. Nesbit, Rev. W. P. Cochran, Rev. A.
H. Hahn and Rev. W. E. Niles. Such ex
planations were made of the position of the
several denominations;appeared - to give
great satisfaction to those who had hitherto
doubted the'practicabilitY ,and - exPedlency
of organic union; and it was ;oeconviction
of all assembled that if the- understanding
and spirit of this convention could be made
to prevail in the diuretics-generally, there
wouldbo no-diffithiltFin effecting-it—The
only article which created any serious' em
barrassment was that which related to the
Use of the Psalms in worship.' Complete
unanimity in voting was' attained on all
point's except this. r After .a protracted do-,

A • NEW FIELD OF Flo7loN.—The
brilliant series df novels by Miss Muhlbaeli,'
now-incop - rap
fens of New York, have commanded un
qualified praise in aliquarters. ; The author
cis is is a citizen of Berlin, in PrusSiii, and
through her -husband wss connected , with
the court. Possessing unusual powers of
intellect and:aecess 10 the most amplo his
--torical-tletails, she has shown her genius by
delineating some of the mit distinguished
charimter4 - eild 'the - groar - evcints of tvliteh
-Burglar has been tile. theatre during the
present century. Tite choice of her sub
jects indicates her powers.''''the takes the
timo of Frederick the Great and Joseph the
Second, for example, and upon the baok
groluid of facts ,which, the chronicles of
those periods afford, she embroiders the
bright and sombre colors, the light and
shfide,...of her fiction, with the skill of a con•
summate artist. In all history there cannot
be found more picturesque scones, more ef
feetiVtrgroupings,..than Miss Muhlbach finds
in the annals of the German, prch, and
Russian courts of the last centu r'. The
main facts are so well known ai toimpaA to
per stories the truo historical air; and before
proceeding far in theia, we becorrie satisfied
that in her deseriptien of persons, places,
Costumes, manners, and all that goes to make
up the characteristic life of an epoch, she is
conscientious and reliable.
But it is as novel's that Miss Muhlbach'S
books possess their highest charm. All
-this exhipition of historicallore - is - but the
to the end. Her object is to write
stories - which - sball=enthratiterroaders - , - an&
she does it.. Not,for many years-S.ome say
not since the- Waverly novels-T-1111v° such
entertaining, such thoroughly readable
books appeared. No dull
,chapters flier the
-progress of-her-narratives.—Hence hor_nov.::
els are of s. kind - thatone yishes there were
more of them. Wo noverAire ot, her heroes
and heroines; her "Fredegic," "Joseph 11.
and His Court," "NapOleon," "Josephine,"
"Lmiisa of Prussia,". Sc.' There can bo no
better evidence"of the genies of a writer than
this of portraying the - same character in a
series of books with historical consistency,
;and yet with •:undiminished Interest. In
'Miss Muhlbach's case.the interest increases.
'as we advance in the life and fortunes of
her favorite. ;A part of the charm; when
pause to analyze it, is her style—perhaps
- ~o,froestAd.most sparkling...thet,exer...ran,
om woman's pen. It has an individeal
quality, hard to donee, like that which we
sea in some pictures; but it is. unmarred by'
.mannerisms or grotesqueries of kind.
