Editor's Table, .
The first article is a review of Hon. Fernando
Wood's letter to Hon. Henby A, Wise; an eloqaent
protest against the now doctrino of Central Power
Vf. States Rights. Oui bono* However,'tb? paper
js well worth reading, aQd we append the conclu
ding paragraph.
in conclusi?n, We wiolr'to say*that this article is
no moro addressed < to the people of: the South
than of tho North. Wq oponk to our countrymen
of all sections. All muat, in the end, share a
common destiny. ?The North cannot govern tho
Sonth with despotlo rule without becoming a des
potism itself. There* ie no ?way in which tho north
ern people oan consent that the peoplo of the
South snail bo despotically governed, without
-also, at last, bringing their own neoks under the
same yoko. There is no way for tho northern
people to Strip the people of the South of the
escrod right of Belf-governmont, without also
stripping themselves of the same right, Wbilo
helping the Federal Congress to become the mas
ter of those peoplo, they are also making a master
for themselves. This is the "new Americanism '
of whioh Mr. Wood speaks, the master of the
Amerioan people I Blistered be the tongue that
counsels conforming to such an atrocious doc
trine I Conform to no principle that did not be
long to our system of government beforo the war I
and trust to law and justice to bring us securely
back to the immortal foundations laid by our
fathers.
The editor of the "Old Guard," 0. Chauncey
Bubb, Esq., is evidently a very versatile genius ;
politician, economist, poet, essayist, oto. Ho is,
perhaps, a little too much of an Ishmaelite, tak

be tnkos Professor Taylor Lewis to task for pre
ferring Thocydides as a' biBtorian to Livy. We
have known a great many vory competent judges

Interesting Decision -.vltli regard to Con
federate Money.
An important deoision was rendered, a few
weeks ago, by Judge Clayton, of Mississippi, the
interest of which hinges upon the validity of a
payment made in Confederato money.
The case was that of Duke <t Cade vs. John W.
Perkins, being a bill for specific performance of
contract. It was tried in the Sixth Judicial Dis
trict of Mississippi.
The following facts were exhibited by the bill,
answer and proof :
On tho 27th of January, 18?4, the defendant
sold to complainants 20,000 pounds of lint cotton
for the sum of $7000, which was paid at the time
in treasury notes of tho Confederate States. The
defendant (Pebkinb) agreed to take ordinary care
of tho cotton, and delivor it to complainants when
afterwards required, &c. Tho defendant failing "
and refusing to deliver the cotton, when required,
the bill was instituted to enforce a specific per
formance of the contract.
The dofendant, by his counsel, submitted the
following grounds of defence :
1st. That tho act of secession by the State ol
Mississippi, and confederation with other States,
being a violation of tho Constitution of the United
States, no government was created bv said Con
federacy which could perform any'binding act,
and the issuing of Treasury notes to be used as
money was a nullity, and consequently was not
such a consideration as would make a contract
local between individuals.
2d. That tho Constitution of the United States
prohibited tho States from ''omitting bills of
credit," and that tho States could not do collec
tivoly what they were prohibited from doing
separately. That said Treasury notes wh*joh
formed tho consideration of the contract euod on,
were "bills of credit," and having been issued in
violation of the Constitution of the United States,
were illegal and void, and said contract, founded
on said illegal consideration, cannot be enforced
either in law or equity.
3d. That said Treasury notes were issued to
carry on a rebellion against the Government of
tho United States, and the same having been is
sued in violation of the Constitution, law and pab
ilo pol i oy, con Id raise no-consideration apon which
a legal and binding contract could he oreated.,
The lucid and learned deoision of Judge Clay
ton on tho questions thus presented, is published
in the Columbus Sentinel. Wo have not suffloient
. opaco to copy it in full, and oan only briefly state
its general purport.
After a statement of tho origin of tho late war,
the Jndgo procoods to refuto the fallacy of the
-argnment for the defence, which undertook to
prove that the Constitution and laws of the Uni
ted States were in full operation over the South
ern States during the war. Ho shows that tbo
citizen, owing partial allegiance, at least, to both
governments, could not commit tho crime of trea
son, when his action was controlled by State au
thority. So far ib this prinoiplo carried in Eng
land, that the citizen is hold exoncratad from tho
crimo of troason even for supporting a usurper
against tho rightful sovereign. Ho quotes Black
stone, who says:
"It is'held that a King defacto and not de jure,
in other words a usurper that hath got possession
of tho throne, is a King, within tho meaning of
tho statute, as there is a temporary allegiance duo
to him, for bis administration of the government
and temporary proteotion of tho public; and there
fore treaeona committed against Henry YI. were
Eunisbed under Edward IV., though all the lino of
ancaster had been previously declared usurpers
by aot of Parliament." And again "When, there
fore, a usurper is in possession, the subject is ex
cused and justified in obeying and giving him as
sistance: otherwiso undor OBurpation no man
could be safe, if tho lawful princo had a right to
hang him for obedience to the power in being, as
tho usurper would certainly do for disobedience."
Reasoning on tho basis of these well-establish
ed prinoiples, Judge Clayton days :
, "It is. ovident that, it this doctrine bo correct,
and treason cannot bo committed by rendering
assistance to a usurper who has possession of the
government against the lawful prince, most cer
tainly the citizen of a State, owing not only tem
porary, bnt permanent allegiance to the State
government, cannot bo amenable to the general
government for- rendering obedience to the au
?ority of his State, notwithstanding by so doing
he will violate his Federal allegiance. A contrary
doctrine in conflict between a Stato and gonoral
government, would render the escape of a citizen
from tho orimo of treason impossible; for tho
obedience of one would constitute treason against
tho other.*
Tho Judge proceeds to show that the late war
could not, then, be oonsiderod as a mere rebellion,
but that it was a genuine tear between belligerent
powers?a "cly? war," as he torma it (we think
improperly)?and that individuals engagod in it
are not personally responsible for acts committed
in obedience to the authority of their respective
governments.
This position is sustained by a full array of
authorities?among them by decisions of the Uni
ted States Courts during tho war. Tho next step
in the argument is thus stated:
"We cannot hold that the suspension of the
Federal Constitution and laws left the Confederate
Hiatos in perieot anarchy, with no law -controlling
contracte or rights of property. But we con?oive,
that as tho States continued all their power and
funotiona of government which they possessed
before the war. and created a de facto govern
mont with belligerent power, the two combined
possessed authority to enfore tho law and givo
ample protection and validity to the proporty,
rights and contracts of the citizens. The common
and municipal laws of the States, regulating trans
actions and contracte between citizens, wore not
affected by the war, but remained intact, within
the jurisdiction of the Confederate States."
Judge Clayton then proceeds to consider the
powers of the Confederate Oovernment during its
de fado exiatenoe, and shows, very conclusively,
that, as a toar measure, it possessed the power of
issuing treasury notes, and that this power was
entirely independent of any question of its char
acter de jure. He shows, also, that the Federal
Oovernment has recognised the validity of pur
chases made with these notes, by seizing cotton
and other proporty of the Confederate States, the
title to whioh was acquired by the Confederate
Oovernment through purchases made with these
treasury notes.
From these considerations tho conoloeion is
drawn with irresistible force, that contracts, of
which the consideration was the payment of Con
federate money, during the de facto exiatenoe of
the Confederate Oovernment, are valid and obli
gatory.
Our limite of apace and time prohibit any fur
ther statement of this able and interesting de
cision, although It is impossible to condenso it
without injustice to the argument It is, in our
judgment, exhaustive and irrefutable.
The prayer of the bill was granted, and a de
creo entered for the delivery of the cotton to the
complainants, or, in oaee the cotton could not be
had, for the value of it?the defendant to pay the
costo of the suit.
Tlie Lute Rebellion 1st Jamaica
[The following letter, says the New York News,
is handed ua for publication by a gentleman who
has received it from a relative in Jamaica, who
has a large negro population under his spiritual
care. It was written without a view to publica
tion :]
Oxford, April 2_You ask me for a sensible ac
count of the rebellion and its putting down. To
understand the matter properly it requires some
experience of the negro character and habits;
rules that would apply to an instructed and indus
trious white population living where there was,
a considerable incitement to labor would be inap
plicable to onr population. Tho people are as a rule
very barbaroua in their notions. They have none
of the eelf-rospoct or finer feelings, either of affec
tion or taste, necessary to self-control or govern
ment, and are exceedingly cunning and untruthful
to a degree, as well as suspicious m the extreme.
They were, however, at the same time, considered
by all ae utterly wanting in the power of organi
zation, and trusted and looked upon as trouble
some but harmless people, at the time the rebel
lion broke out. In the midst, then, of
such a populaci?n, living in perfect security,
at the tail end of the island, a rebellion
utterly I unprovoked, but that those who
had rendered themselves amenable to the law for
some petty offences were sentenced by a bench of
magistrates, broke out with the most cruel atro
cities, all the white families being obliged to fly
for thoir lives at night, without even clothing,
whilst some, not fortunato enough to escape thus,
were barbarously murdered. At this time there
were but a few hundred soldiers in' the whole
island, and symptoms of satisfaction and rebel
lion before unheeded in the rost of the parishes,
now understood in their full aignifloanoe when
looked at in the light of tho ?vente of the day,
ripened into action. From the nature of the peo
ple they were incapable of understanding olenicn
cy, and the only hope of stopping what seemed to
bo a dangerous rebellion was to make astern exam
ple of those who had risen in arms against the re
presentatives of government. T.'.i - Go v. Eyre did,
and for it has received, by innumei-ible addresses
presented from all quarters and every class,
the highest approbation. The stories circulated
of eight wells of doad, of womon flogged, and people
wantonly murdered, have been proved to be abso
lute falsehoods, intended to oalumniate Governor
Eyre and the ofiiciiils. That tho people are disaf
fected, have a notion that the Queen moans to
give them all the land for themselves, and has
sent tbeni presents whioh we are keening from
them, and consider themselves oppressed booause
they find thoy still havo to work and can't eat
bread in absolute idleness, I have had abundant
evldenco to prove ; and when people with euoh
feelings aro worked upon by euoh men as George
W. Gordon, s thorough-paced demagogue, with
nothing to loose, being over head and ears in debt
and disgrace ; who shut his own father in prison
and nearly beat him to death ; who got up meetings
all over the island add harangued tho people on
their grievances, whioh oxtsted only in his own
brain, and bid them follow tho example of Hayti :
when he spoke to them of the Governor as a bad
man, who was helping the white people to enslave
them?was it wonderful that their ignorant minds,
worked up thus to a pitch of oxcltomont, should
burst out i uto rebellion, and require a strong hand
to ptlt it dOM II?

I am a graduate of the regular Medical Colleges. Eight
een months ago I had seven cases of severo fomale dis
ease which I had entirely failed to care. One lady bad
constant hysterics; ono bad every sympton of epileptic
convulsions cons?quent Upon deranged menstruation;
others had white?, ladling, irregularities, and all trhe se
vere symptoms of continued uterine derangement.
Having my attention called to MARSHALL'S UTERINE
CATHOLICON, I used it, and it eared every case. Then
ha? not been a singlo failure in its operation.
