Thc War Against thc President.
Thc Cincinnati Commercial jg (Re?
publican) has tho following from
Washington:
Ordinary capacity to judge of men
and measures, and to reason from
what appears on thc surfaco what
there is underneath, is tpiite enough
to load to the conclusion that the
proceedings of thc caucus on Wednes?
day night, are intended as the initial
stops in tho impeachment of thc Pre?
sident. They are so understood sub
rosa by a few who initiated them, if
not by the vast majority who ratified
them. A committee to investigate
tho New Orleans riot seems like a
very simple matter on its face; but
taken in connection with the asser?
tions of those who moved it, it means
something more than an effort to give
ollieial publicity to the facts of that
disgraceful ebullition of Southern
chivalry.
So, too, of other investigating com?
mittees appointed and to be appoint?
ed. They all point in una direction
a determination to get hold of some?
thing that will justify the arraign?
ment of the President for some crime
or misdemeanor. Tho only part of
the radical programme to which ex?
ceptions can be taken, (for the right
to investigate the conduct of Mr.
Johnson eau certainly not be called
into question even, if, all things con?
sidered, its propriety be doubted,) is
the proposition which it is commonly \
understood will be offered before j
long, to enact a law making the I
arraignment of the President the sig- j
nal for his removal from office.
This must and will be looked upon I
as a revolutionary proceeding, and
cannot meet the endorsement of any
mau not prevented by party passions
and prejudices from seeing that it is
possible to carry the persecution
even of such a mau as Johnson too
far. Itis unjust in what it proposes,
and dangerous in the example it sets
for future imitation by political ma?
jorities. It contemplates punishment j
before trial or conviction, and es-j
tablishes a precedent under which
the President of the United States
may, at any time, be removed, when
a mere majority in tho House of Rep?
resentatives shad be dissatisfied with
his conduct. It requires only a
majority of the House to pass articles
of impeachment; but the framers of
tho Government, anticipating just
such a state of things as Stevens and
Kelley a"d their associates now wish
to bring about, provided that it
should require two-thirds of the Se?
nate sitting as a high court of im?
peachment to convict.
A Washington correspondent writes
as follows to the Cincinnati Gazette:
The Congressional trumpet rings
clear. There is no mistaking its
notes. They call to a conflict which !
will be made final, to a victory which
will cause the loyal to rejoice. There
seems to be a general disposition to
pay little attention to Andrew John?
son personally, to waste no words
upon him, but to proceed quietly to
a thorough investigation of his acts.
Beyond question, he will be stripped
of all power to injure his country,
and left as helpless to harm as a ser?
pent without fangs. While it seems
almost certain that the investigations
already ordered, will bring to light
acts which will demand impeachment,
at the same time legislation is already
planned to set him aside almost as
effectually as if placed on trial and
couvicted. The chango in tho time
of tho meeting of Congress, the re?
vision of the modes of appointment,
and the proposal to limit the dura?
tion of Presidential terms to four
years, all look in that direction.
Suit has been brought, in tho
Fourth District Court of New Orleans,
against Colonel Oscar Burbridge, of
Kentucky, to recover 8100,01)0 as
damages for the wrongful seizure and
forcible capture of 758 bales of cot?
ton, at Shreveport, La., on tho 1st of
November, 1805, by said Burbridge,
who was Special Supervising Agent
of tho Treasury Department of tho
United States. Robert G. Carter,
Jerome Bradley and William S. Chap?
man aro parties to the suit.
I MIKtxirj- Commis-tiou? Illegal-Deci?
sion of tile S II ?neme Court .
In our telegraphic reports, yester?
day, wa* given fin abstract of the de?
cision of the United States Supreme
Court, declaring military commis?
sions foi.' tuc; IM;I1 of civilians ine?
gal. The importance of the decision
to our people, especially in view of
the present action and attitude of
the military authorities in this State,
induces us to publish in full the fol?
lowing official report of the decision
of the Court:
Ex porte Lanbdin P. Milligan.-The
question certified up in this (and two
other cases heard with it) were as fol?
lows:
1. On the facts stated in said peti?
tion and exhibits, ought a writ of
habeas corpus to bo issued, according
to the prayer of the said petition?
2. On tho facts stated in said peti?
tion and exhibits, ought thc said
Lambdin P. Milligan to be discharged
from custody as in said petition
prayed?
?>. Whether, upon the facts slated
in said petition and exhibits, the mili?
tary commission mentioned therein
had jurisdiction legally to tr%- and
sentence said Milligan in manner and
form as in said petition and exhibits
stated?
As to thc first two questions, it is
answered affirmatively, and as to thc
third question, IL is answered in the
negative.
Mr. Justice Davis read the opinion
of the court, in which, as to the ob?
jection to the jurisdiction of the
court in the mutter, on the ground
that there was no "snit" pending
and before it, it is held that a cause
is a suit, and wherever there is a pro?
ceeding before a court, brought to
assert any right by any person, that
proceeding is a suit. In this case,
there was an appearance by the Dis?
trict Attorney on the part of the Go?
vernment; but that is immaterial as
to tho question of jurisdiction, as the
appearance was not necessary to sus?
tain lt. The language of tho statute
providing for a certificate of division
in any case where the .judges are di?
vided-upon the application of either
party"-is intended rather to enlarge
the statute than to restrict it in a
manner to exclude the right of appeal
in cases of this character, where onb
the name of ono party appears.
On tho merits, it is held that Con?
gress provided against such commis
sious, rather than in favor of them.
! by the Act of lt?(>3, and that Congress
has not the constitutional power tc
authorize such commissions; that the
Constitution is express against them
and it is the supreme law of the land
! in times of war as in times of peace
j Mr. Chief Justice Chase read ai
opinion, (in which Justices Wayne
I Swayne aud Miller concur,) dissent
? ing from so much of tho opinion o
the court as held that Congress die
not have the constitutional power t<
authorize military commissions, bu
concurring as to the answer given t<
tho questions certified up. The dis
senting"opinion held that, in time o
war, Congress may authorize militar
commissions to try offences such a
charged in the case before the court
-< -o<^ ?
Mn. DAVIS-SURBAIT.-Our Fort
ress Monroe correspondent says tba
Jeff. Davis is highly gratified at th
arrest of John H. Surratt. He see
his way to a full proof of his inno
cenco, it is asserted, through Surratt'
testimony, and, even if the capture?
fugitive should make the charge
against Davis that it is rumored li
will, the latter expresses himself full;
able to disprove them. Unless som
unexpected turn of events occurs
growing, possibly, out of the Surra,
trial, Davis does not expect that ?ii
case will come up before next spring
[New York Herald.
And Bennett has the grace to adi
that it is simply impossible that Mi
Davis should have had any hand i
the assassination of'Mr: Lincoln.
Philadelphia is" said to be built o
a gold mine. A letter-writer, wh
makes the assertion, explains :
Under that city there is a depos
of clay, measuring ten square mile
This stratum of clay has a thicknei
of about fifteen feet. The chemis
in applying his tests, has discovert
that gold exists in that clay bed i
the value of three cents to each cub
foot. In that vast clay deposit the:
are 180,000,000 cubic feet, in whic
is diffused $120,000,000. There
gold enough in every brick ma?
from it to cover it with two squa
inches of gold leaf, and within tl
corporate limits of that city there
more gold diffused than bas yet be?
brought from Australia and Califo
nia.

dated the 12th inst., says a lar

FKKN'CU CHOLERA STOBY.-A Paris- j
ian correspondent says:
"By-the-way, tho word cholera re?
minds mo that ono of our provincial
judges, recently delivered a judgment,
which would not have discredited
Solomon. A sugar refiner at Lille
generously titted up the room adjoin?
ing his engine-room as a steam bath,
and allowed all persous in the town
seized with cholera to be brought
thither. Not oue of the persons ex?
posed in this steam bath died of that
disease. One woman-a factory girl
iu a colton manufactory cf Lille-was
so scalded during a bath as to be
unable to work for two days, and,
with singular ingratitude, she brought
suit against her benefactor to recover
the two days' wages she lost. Tho
judge, summoniug all his gravity to
his countenance, thus addressed her,
after hearing her and her witnesses'
testimony: 'Madame, I should not
hesitate to sentence tho defendant to
pay you the wages of the two days
you have lost, could I, at the same
time, force him to restore the cholera
which you yourself confess you lost
in his house; unable to strain my
power so far, I must dismiss your
case.' The audience approved, by
great laughter, the judge's decision,
and the woman, covered with confu?
sion and pursued by jeers, quitted !
the court house. "
Referring to an experiment wit- '
uessed near Memphis, with a newly- j
invented cotton-picking machine, the
Bulletin says:
"Thc machine is of simple cou- !
struction, and designed to operate on j
two rows at a time. A mule is the ;
motive power, walking between the j
rows, the driver perched on the top j
of the machine, at whose right hand
is a lever by which the machinery is
thrown in and out ut" gear. The front
of the machine presents *two rows of
revolving brushes, by which it is cast
into a receptacle behind, holding, j
perhaps, three hundred pounds.
There are two faults with the ma- j
chine, which tho inventor, however, |
says he can speedily remedy. One is
too great a degree of velocity, and !
the other, that too much trash is i
taken in with the cotton. It wascon
ceded by gentlemen of experience in i
these matters, that Mr. Trensch's in- ;
vention is the nearest to perfection, I
and that it can be readily developed i
by one or two alterations."
A NEW ISLAND.-The St. Joseph
(Mo.) Herald chronicles oue of tho
peculiar results of the action of the
current of the Missouri River on its
banks and on its sandy bottom. An
island has been formed in tho river
opposite St. Joseph, the channel run?
ning between the island and the Mis?
souri shore. Although a vast bed of
sand over two miles iu length, should
it withstand the flood next spring, it
may soon be covered with a growth of
trees. An immense drift has formed
at the upper end, which it is believed
will protect it from the rush of waters
and make it permanent. The c?her
day, two citizens of St. Joseph passed
over to the island, Look possession of
it and erected a cabin thereon, which
they hold will give them the first
claim to entry when the Government
places it in market.
AIR-LINE RAILJXOAD TO NEW YOKE.
On Monday, the President of the
Senate laid before that body an Act
to authorize the building of a mili?
tary and postal railroad from Wash?
ington to New York, under the name
of "The National Railroad Compa?
ny," aud authorizes the construction
of a railway upon as nearly as possi?
ble an air-line, from Washington city
to New York, through Maryland,
Delaware, Pennsylvania and New
Jersey. The bill expressly forbids
contracts with any existing railroad
company, and requires also that first
class passenger trains shall go through
in seven hours; second-class pas?
senger trains in fourteen hours.
A royal decree has recently been is?
sued in Spain, winch repeals an en?
actment equivalent to our old fugi?
tive slave law. Hereafter, slavery is
to bo treated as a local institution
peculiar to Porto Rico or Cuba, and
the moment a person held as a slave
in those islands reaches, from any
cause, any other portion of tho Spa?
nish dominions, or the territory of
any State where slavery does not ex?
ist, he regains his freedom. This is
another evidence of the power of en?
lightened public opinion, and of the
approaching overthrow of "the sum
of all villainies" in every civilized
country.
A Memphis despatch of tho 12th
inst., to tho Cincinnati Gazette, says:
"The soldiers at Corinth killed a
notorious horse-thief who was at?
tempting to steal a good horse. Some
little excitement ensued but no colli?
sion. The Vicksburg Grand Jury
sent a complimentary address to Gen.
Wood."

THIRTY lal S KS OK COMMON
SE\'SE.-Reader, having glanced over the
editorials ami thc news in this journal, you
turn to the advertisements, saying to your?
self, "These an; published by the writers
to serve their own interests.*' Perhaps so.
But it is no less truo that il concerns your
interests to read these thirty Hm s. If you
are health}-, it is presumed you wish to
continue so. If sick, of course, you desire
to be relieved. In either case, it is impor?
tant to you to know that HOSTETTER'S
BITTERS are the safest, surestand best
tonic and alterative ever advertised in auy
country. This is a period of the year when
thc strongest need an invigorant, for tho
oppressive heat drains the system of
si-rength faster thau thc most potent and
vigorous organization can recruit it. There?
fore, as a preservative of health- as a pro?
tection against the devitalizing action of
j heat and tho malaria it produces-you
should sustain the good constitution and
sound stamina with which nature has
blessed you with this peerless Vegetable
Tonie.
It can scarcely be necessary to urge upon
the weak and ailing the importance of ac?
quiring by safe means thc strength which
unassisted nature denies them. All who
aro thus circumstanced are invited to give
tho Bitters a trial. Before they have taken
the elixir threo days, in conformity with
j the directions, they will acknowledgo with
gratitude its genial operation. They will
lind that it imparts mental as well as nerv?
ous energy, and regulates all the internal
functions admirably. This is the expe?
rience of the debilitated and depressed,
and in making these statements tho pro?
prietors only echo the language of innu?
merable testimonials. Dec 18 tG
