From the Augusta Con'stitutionalist. A MUilitary Despotism. The bold position is assumed by his Acci. dency, President Fillmore, that lie is vested by the Constitution with sole and supreme command of the Army and Navy, and that he is not restrained by any let of Congress, nor has it authority to restrain him in the use ot them for the enforcement of the laws. In his message to the Senate, in reference to the Boston mob, the President asserts that the! act of 1707 contains an unconstitutional re striction on his power, and he desired to be relieved by an express enactment, from that restriction. Previous to that act, the Presi dent had no legistive authority to call out the Army and Navy to put down insurrections, mobs, and combinations against the laws. Tle act ot' 1795 authorized his calling out the militia only for that purpose, he first issu-! ing a proclamation as a warning to those inl! revolt. The act of 1807, gave him the addi tional authority to call out the Army and' Navy also, 1a haring first cbserred all the pre-. requisites f the law in other respects." The Senate did not take any action on this. question. The uajority of the Committee on the Judiciary reported that no further legislation was necessary to enable tie Pre :ident to discharge his executive duty. Mr. Butler, we are pleased to observe, of-, fered a minority report, in which this propos ed stride of the President to absolute milita ry power, is thus pointedly protested against: "So far as it regards the employment ofy the army and naval force, the President mlain-i tains that he is subject to no pre-requisites of. the act referred to, but they are absolutely at his command for the purpose indicated. * "The words of tie Presideit are: " Con gress, not probably adverting to the difrer enee between the militiat and the regrur arty by the act of March 3d, 1807, authorized the President to use the land and naval force of the United States for the same purpose for which he might call forth the militia, and subject to the same proclamation. But the power of the President under the constitu tion, as commander of the army and naivy, i. general, and his duty to see the laws execu ted is general and positive; and the act of 1807 ought not to be construed as evincing any disposition in Congress to limit or re4 strain any of his constitutional authority." The import of which is, that the Presidentp may use the army and navy as lie may think., proper, under the plenitude of his constitu tional authority: and that lie is not con strained by th'e act of 1807, nor can lie be" restrained by any act of Congress. Being0 ex officio commander, he can use the army in suppressing insurrections in a manner dif1er ent frim that in which he is required to use the militia. " For the specifie and sometimes delicate purposes indicated, I think Congress has the direction of the President. Vhen actually in command, for repelling invasion or for any other purpose, he must exercise his own judgment, under his constitutional discretion. In one sentence, I deny that the President has a right to employ the army and navy for sip. pressing insurrections, &c., without observ-1 ing the same pre-requisites prescribed for him in calling out the militia for the sane! purpose. "His suggestion in his message is. that hc shall have a right to employ the militia, as hie contends he has a right under the constitu tion to employ the regular military force; that is, without notice of a proclamation. I do~ not think he has the right to call out tl nilhitary force, of the Government withio. observing the pro-requisites of the act o 1795; and I am unwilling to give hiin suet. power in calling out the militia. I would rr gaird it as a fearfully momentous occasion-< see the army called out to shoot down instg gents, without notice or proclamation. * " The truth is, it must be regarded asa significant omen of the times to be told that a marshal, under the plenary powver to call out the posse comitalus, cannot execute con stitutioeal laws without resort to force, and that to be executed with the promptitess of the Executive will." It is indeed, "a signfcant omen," when the fngitive-slave law eannot hie excnted among, the people of thte non-slavehoiling States without armises and navies, and not even then, if the people can get a notification by proclamation of such an intention. If the President be clothed wit h absolnte power, or hais authority r-cognuized to be abov~e the jurisdliction of Congress, the Soth w ill be the first made to feel the weight of~ btirarm. Antti-slavery Presidents, sneh as 3Tillard~ Filhnuore, wh'lo are htereaifter destinted, in all probtability, to be the sole occupants of that station, would feel employed in a more con-1 genial duty, int marebaing down tipoit the~ So~uthernt people, than in enforcing havs upon~ Boston mobs, with whiose anti-slavecry sni mieuts they sympathize. CuatsTIASs SiENTENCED TO DEATH.--Ae counts from Madaigascar state that ini June~ last, eight thousand Chiristianas, whlo had as sembled at Imirenia for wvorship, were atrrest ed~ by order of the Queen and conidemnted to, death. Eighteen haid already beent executedF wh~eni the rest founid mieans to escape, tied to~ the palace of the Prince, and threw thiem selves upon his protection. The Prince~ accorded his protection in spite of the comn tmantds of his mother, who fearing :a revolu tioni, did not dare to persist in beir persecii-C tioits. The Christians were at laist accouints' in safety. The Prinice had been several timnes~ to their prayer meetings, and hopes were en tertatined that whein hte reached the throne onC the death of his mtothter, the policy of exclu din:: foreign meret:ints from the port otf nMdagasear wvould be anntulled. THEc CrUBrN TaIAE.-The New Orleans' Pieayune, in announcing the closing scenie of~ this lhuge fairee just entacted there, says: " The end of these trials hats not been unt expected, and wve do not see thtat there htas~ becen any ground'for fmtding fault with thte result, The oflicers of the Government: have performed their duty with all diligence ;l and if thtev have failed to establish the offenicel with whiicht these parties were charged, it is~ manifest that it mhas been for want of proof,h and thait the accused were entitled to ai dischlairge fromt offences that could not be~ pavJedI, antd whlich every attempt toI prove. only removed still further from theta."
