They teach that the safety of the people and the security of 'he Government itself, i depend on the faithful observance of the laws both by the people and by their public agents. Those persons who have been preaching from day to day that in tear limes there is no lair, ( inter or ma silent leges,) are more ! guilty of the terror- 5 of the outbreak in New York than any other class in the community If they set aside courts and legal remedies don't they invite mobs ? Dare they face this question ? Let these people obey the laws themselves —let them stop sneering at the Constitution, the bond of all hw ; let them quit suspend ing judicary writs, and substituting armed force for the civil enginery of justice in the States ; and above all, let their raving edit- I ors s pcl of Peace shall have sounded atrain from heaven into their hearts, and the Gospel >-f Abolition and hate been expelled, \et your clergy and the churches meet again in Chris tian intercourse, North and South. Let se cret orders and voluntary associations every where re-unite as brethren or.ee more. I" short, give to all the natural and ail the art; ficial causes which impel us together th ir fullest sway.

Sam Houston and Martial Law. In a late communcation addressed bv Gen. Sam. Houston, of texas, to the Houston Tele graph, he protests against the declaration of Martial Law in that place by Gin Ilerbet, of the Confderatc army, in the following em. phatic terms ; "For the Confederate Government to send its military officers to a sovereign Slate to supersede the Governor in the exercise of its authority, as has been done in Texas,(though I have heard of it in no other State,) does not seem to me to he exercising Confederate power. It may he said that this is not a time to discuss these matters. My answer is. the time to discuss the principle of liberty is whenever the rights rf the citizens are in vad d, or the laws trampled under foot.— Acquiescence in usurpation is—Slavery ! Is neceessity urged in behalf of such things ? My answer is—necessity is the plea of Ty rants, and the exercise of unrestiained will the throne of Despotism !" DIRTY HANDS. — Dr. Wall, at a dinner par ty, very unwisely persisted in playing with a cork in such a manner as displayed a hand long divorced from the lavatory.

TRUE REPENTVNCE —Tr ue repentance consists in the hart being broken for sin, and broken from sin. Some often repent, yet never reform : they resemble a man trav eling a dangerous path, who frequently starts and stops, but never turns hack. PROVOST MARSHAL GENERA! FRY, (who will shortly be in a stew.) lias been upset in his decision that a drafted man cannot be ex empted by the payment of §3OO, a fie - be bus submitted himself to t!-.e surgeon's examina tion and is pronounced able-bodied. Hon. Caleb Cushing, maintains that the payment °f $3OO, exempts a man for three 3'enrs, and that a person cannot bo required to furnish a substitute, or pay the commutation money before being examined. In this particular the instructions of the Provost Marshal Gen- I eral have been overruled by the Highest au thority. £3T"i am afraid you'll forget n.e wife while I'm away," said a bravo volunteer. j "Never fear, my dear . the longer you are ' away in your country's service the better T : shall like you.'

DREAMING IN CuncH.~-At Balston Spa, on Sunday, a wagoner, with liis son John, drove ins team mto a barn,and determined to pass the Saba th in enjoying a season of worship with the good people of the vilage. When the lime for worship arrived, John was sent to watch the team while wagoner went with the'crowd.

An old Dutchman who had jo'ned the temperence society was taken sick and sent to the docter to prescribe for him, who ordered him to take an ounce of brandy per day.
