The Washington correspondent of that excellent paper, thc Baltimore Gazette, writes :; In the course of these letters, I have frequently asserted the inability of Congress, as at present constituted, to adopt by the required vote those measures necessary to a practical overthrow of the Government, name? ly: The displacement of the Presi? dent; thc corruption or abolishment of tho Supreme Court, and the sub? mission of the Southern country tc tho rule of the negro population, in conjunction with the few itinerant political mountebanks who iufest thal unfortunate portion of the United States. I have now no doubt of thc entire correctness of these assertions. The difficulty in the accomplishnicnl of the unholy ends of thc revolution ists has been, and still is, in tho Se? nate. But it need be no longci disguised that very shortly this im pediment will have been removed This, in short, is the key to the dc feat of Foster in Connecticut, Harri in New York, and of others I neet not name. It was also the oversha dowing influence that prevailed ii the admission, of Nebraska and Colo rado as States. On the 5th of Marci next, then, a day selected by the cou spirators by an Act of Congress rc .?ently passed, the people of thi country may expect to see tho initia tion of means fully adequate to con ?ummate their nefarious purposes. 3 is as certain as any future event ca - be, "that unless decisive measure shall bc taken to arouse the entii country toits imminent danger, tb "Ides of Ala....eh" will witness th total subversion of the substance an the very forms of this Govern?ient. * It is in full view of the transcent ant importance of this great erne gency that many consultations ha\ been recently bau in this city by di languished gentlemen from all par of the country, and the univers; sentiment is entertained that, if coi stitutional liberty is to be preserve . ia this land, no time is to be lost : assembling true representatives < the two millions of voters who r corded their suffrage on the side the Constitution at the late election . in solemn council, there to mal known that (he infamous purpose , deprive the people of their liberti will not be unresistingly submitb to. It is high time, in the opini< of wise and cautious heads, that t magnitude of the present peril shou be nakedly sot forth, in order tb tlie people may fully comprehend t a-wlul precipice to which the radii leaders have been, step by step, co ducting them. 1 well know that t country is in such a frenzied com tion that words of warning like thc have nearly, if not quite, lost sign i canee, to say nothing of their inf en ce. They ur? not, however, i words, but those of the ablest, nu prudent and purest men the nati cnn boast. The momentous questions n pressing upou public attention : not tboso in which thc South, such, tue especially interested, suits the purposes of the conspi tors to veil their Intent intenti< and to couple their measures, signed for general subjugation, w an apparent purpose of vengean only against tbo.se whom we h lately regarded as enemies. Tl thus seek to appropriate the passi of the people of the North to tl own ruin. At a time propitioiv calm reflection, when thc pu' mind remained unbiased by pr< dices Hie effect of war, such giga strides to despotism as have aire made would have been altogel impossible. The attempt to irnpc the President or to overthrow Supreme Court, for the causes tended, would have consigned projectors to eternal infamy, could an appreciable minority of people, fo.- a single moment, ] been brought to second the in project of elevating the negri political and social equality, if seduced by their thirst of veng against an imaginary foe. '. would, if left to tho unbiased i eise of their judgments, however illiterate, have seen in the fancied ? advancement of tho negro only their own debasement. Who is the negro to jostle in tho avenues of labor? Whose vote is he to kill at ?,he ballot box? Whose daughter is he to marry when he shall chooso to take a white wife? Where is the fool who sup? poses that the radical leaders mean that the negro herd shall become their equal in any of these respects, or that negro blood is to be incorpo? rated in their families? Tho African j cannot be elevated-but wo have lamentable proof that the white man j may bo debased to his level, and this is precisely what is aimed at, and is essentially necessary to tho revolu? tion contemplated by tho arch con? spirators in Congress. Nor is this programme in the least new in any of "its aspects. Universo! histor} J proves that no nation ever iost their j liberties except by the exact means ; now in uso to subjugate the frenzied j masses of the American people. C'iiiingc in Southern Opinion. The New York Sim, iu an. article j On thc progress of Southern opinion, j says: Thc change which has occurred in : Southern sentiment within the last j few years is hardly less remarkable i than the material changes which that section bas undergone. The political platform upon which thc people of thc South stand at thc present time is strikingly in contrast with that upon which they stood six years ago.* The issue iu the Presidential cam? paign of 1860 was upon the question of extending slavery into the Terri? tories. Tho Southern people were determined to force the North into ! that measure. They demanded it-as I a condition of their continuance in the Union, and the extent of their determination in this respect is evinced by the fact that they reboiled against the Government because of their defeat. Nothing at that time could have been further from their minds than the idea of giving up the cherished institution of slavery itself. Now, however, since slavery bas dis appeared, tho general expression of the Southern people is that of satis? faction at the result. .They admit that slavery was hurtful to tho indus? trial interests of the South, that it was contrary to principles of freedom and justice, and that the South will prosper more rapidly nuder the new system of labor. This change is alone, most remarkable, when we reflect upon the attitude which the South so lately held with regard Co ! slavery. But the change in senti- j ment is not confined to the question of slavery. The Southern people have uncomplainingly agreed to pay HU equitable proportion of the debt incurred by tho Government in sup? pressing their rebellion;- they have declared their acts of secession null and void, and have agreed to re- j noonee forever the right of seces? sion-a right to which they always clang with a tenacity equal to that with which they adhered to slavery. They have also repudiated all the debts incurred by them in the cause of rebellion, and have agreed to place their late slaves upon a level witli themselves before the law. These concessions on the part of the South have been drawn forth gradually, but afc thc present timi? they are all cheer? fully acquiesced in, and the people declare their intention to observe them in good faith. There is another step wiiieb. the South is now bei' g urged to tnke, and which it will be likely to take before long-that is thc endowment of the freedmen with tho privilege of suffrage. It seems ' strange, indeed, that the fiery people who plunged into rebellion for the sake of slavery extension, should now have reached the point of voluntarily allowing their lute slaves to vote against them. Yet, strange as it is, there is reason to believe that this will"be the next step of the South. i Tur. CONSTITUTION.\.fJ A>fENi>Mt-:.vr. It has been already announced that sixteen States have ratified the amend? ment. Commenting on this, tho Richmond Times says: The sanction of four more States will have given it the endorsation of all that thc radicals assert are neces? sary to make it a part of the Consti? tution. Throwing ont of considera? tion the ten States whoso rights aro disregarded by the revolutionists in Congress, when twenty States have ratified this amendment, Congress will, we think, proceed to legislate for its enforcement upon the South? ern States. When this is done, no ono questions that tho Supreme Court will demolish the whole structure of fraud and rascality, precisely as it has j just done military commissions and I test oaths. Smoked beef is good. Smoked to? bacco is of no account. France Arming. Thc Saturday Review, a leading or? gan of English sentiment, is dwelling with evident anxiety upon tho omi? nous fact that, with professions of peace upon his lips, and expressions of good will towards all thc powers of Europe, the Emperor of Fruuce has, nevertheless, announced his in? tention "of raising the Trench army to thc ouormous total of 1,250,000 armed men." Ostensibly, this huge force is said to he for the protection o? Era-neo, aud to ward off invasion. But this deceives no ouc, as there is no likelihood of Franco beiug in? vaded. All the world is aware that the real object of tho Emperor is to provide himself with an army of of? fence-an army which would placo h'm at thc head of Europe, aud make him as much tho arbiter of its destinies as lie was before the battle of "Sadowa." There arc many roasous which in? duce us to attach much importance to this very plaiu . intimation as to the designs of Napoleon. He has lost ground terribly during thc past year, and may bo said to have suc? ceeded in uothiug which lie under? took. A few words uttered by Napo? leon early during tho. past year to thc Mayor of an obscure village in France, plainly intimated that he regarded himself as the ruling power in Eu? rope, and at that 1 imo nearly thc whole world seemed to agree with him. But a few brief mouths utterly dispelled this delusion, aud scheme after scheme of thc once powerful monarch came to grief. The cuuuing diplomacy of Seward and the deter? mined attitude of President Johnson utterly defeated all his plans iu Mex? ico, and thc battle of Sadowa ami thc genius of Bismarck caused a great European rival to suddenly risc up by thc side of Trance. Then followed thc humiliating refusal oi Italy to accept his arbitration, and curt, brusque rejection of Prussia ol his request for a portion of her terri? tory to "straighten out" the bounda? ries of France. It is not strange, after those marked symptoms ol waning power, that Ilia subjects, heretofore so cheerful and willing ii their obedience to Iiis behests should most bitterly oppose his iu tentiou to increase his army to thc gigantic pro. irtious which wc hav< intimated. -Richmond 'limes.

Whoever says that dyspepsia is incurable, tells a-that is to say, makes an egregious mistake. More than ten thousand aggra? vated cases have been'cured by HOSTET TER'S STOMACH LITTERS, whilo the number that have been prevented from coming to a head, by tho same means, is incalculable. In winter and carly ppri.ig, when thc appetite is sometimes too vigor ons for the safety of tho stomach, indiges j tion is most prevalent and most distrcss I ing. Is tho appetite to bc balked to accommodate thc digestivo organs? Not so; for then the fr am o would lack its due proportion of nutriment. Thc thing tobe done is to strengthen tho stomach, tone the liver, and put thc bowels in perfect order. Nothing will do this so effectually, so rapidly, so quietly, so pleasantly, aa HOSTETTE?'S LITTERS. This potent preparation trims and balances tho sys? tem, and clothes it, as it wore, with de? fensivo armor. Chronic dyspepsia, liver complaint and fever and ague are never known to attack those who arc wise enough to invoke the aid of this great preventive.

THE QUEEN'S DELIGHT, the great American Alterative and Blood Puri? fier, is tho most perfect vegetable com? pound of alteratives, tonics, diuretics and diaphoretics; making it thc most effective invigorating, rejuvenating and blood cleansing cordial known to thc world. In introducing this new and extraordi? nary medicine to the public, observation leads us to remark that too little attention is paid to the "life of all flesh," the blood. Many diseases, and. too, many complaints, which have their origin in a vitiated state of the blood, aro treated only as symptoms and results; whereas, if the remedy had been applied to enrich tho blood and ren? der it pure, both cause and effect would have bf en removed. The Queen's Delight is offered to the afflicted as a sure remedy for those diseases arising from an impure condition of tho blued. It has a direct and specific action upon that fluid, and consequently renders thc blood pure. It is said, on high authority, that ..mau no sooner begins to live than ho begins to die. and that thc characteristics of the living organism are ceaseless change and ceaseless waste." It is obvious, therefore, to every reflecting mind, that unless the blood is pure, in supplying the waste tis? sues with material, it must be the cause of innumerable ills .aniS constitutional dh or? ders, such as Scrofula, Rheumatism, He? patic Disorders, Consumption, Inflamma? tions, Fevers, Ac. Life and health is only to bc maintained by the circulation of pure arterial blood. Wc therefore advise every one whose blood is in the least vitiated by hidtilgence Or excess, and .whose constitution is im? paired by disease and is suffering from Rheumatism, Livor Complaint. Consump? tion, Scrofula or King's Evil, Carbuncles, Boils, Itching Humor of tho Skin. Erysi? pelas, Skin Disease?, 'Pe tter, Roughness ol tho SkLn^Pimples, Blotches, Pains in tho Bones, old Ulcers, Syphilis and Syphilitic Sores, Indigesti?n, Inflammation of thc Bladder and Kidneys. Pains in the bael;, General Debility, and for ll complaints arising from deficiency : nd'po. ; ty-ot blood, to ase the Queen's Delight. Females of d?licate constitution, suffer? ing from weakness and depression o? mind in consequence of those complaints which nature imposes at tho period of change, have a pleasant and sure remedy in thc Queen's Delight. Children whose fair ami ruddy complex? ion gave early promise of health and beauty, but too soon become blanched and pah; by some hereditary taint et the blood, ?viii have the rich booti restored by using the Queen's Delight. The unacclimated and persons traveling into warm countries will find the Queen's Delight a great protection from all malari? ous affection and diseases which originate in a change of climate, diet and life. The extraordinary and unprecedented cares performed by the Queen's Delight Compound is attracting the attention ot every one, not only at home, but abroad. The merits of this compound are being f. lr and appreciated everywhere. Hear what they say of it in New York: "lt is H remedy of much importance and value, exerting an influence over ali the secre? tions, which is unsurpassed by any other known alterative. It is extensively used in all thr* various forms of primary and secondary syphilitic affections; also, in scro'tilous, lu patic and cutaneous diseases, io which its use is followed by tho most successful results." Its properties as a remedy were first in? troduced to the notice of the profession by Dr. Tkos. Young Simons, ol'South Carolina, as t arly as 1H2S, as a valuable alterative re? medy in syphilitic affections, and others re? quiring usc of mercury. Dr. Simons' state? ments have been endorsed and extended by Dr. A. Lope;:, of Mobile, And, Dr. H. R. Frost, of Charleston. From the reports in its favor, there seems no reason to doubt the efficacy of this medicine in Secondary Syphilis, Scrofula, Cutaneous Diseases, Chronic Hepatic Affections and other com? plaints benefited by alterative medicines.
