The Kevt 1 iti r.t Ai'ioiuuiishodOne of the iilost singular manifestations of the facility wi'.li which a j#ot?j.io are enslaved, and tlie whole fabric of society changed without moving or distuihiug the great body of the people, is presented in the condition of this country :it this moment, and fur the last six yea 4. The States are shorn of all the attributes of sovereignty, and the power of control over their own p >licy. The power to regulate the suffrage, the foundation of all self g'vernuicnt, is taken away. Tire right to the exclusive administration of justice among its own citizens, and the punishment of offenders against their own laws, committed upon their own soil, is abridged at pleasure. Their election of Senators and Members of Congress arc set asida at the w.ll of others. Their laws are suspended and martial law established at the will of the Federal Executive. The Federal Courts are packed lur p ilitieal ends and juries ECselected fur partisan purposes. T& governments, State and Federal, arc controlled by cliques and cabals, and everywhere is manifested the most wrcckless profligacy and corruption in the administration of public affairs. Yet with all this, the people arc seemingly blind to the fate which awaits them, or bow r,/\,?L-c- tvi i.lv,- fin- flirt fvrniit.'s vr.L->> How neatly the revolution is accomplished, is indicated by the following paragraphs, which we copy from a ct temporary: "It is now discovered that one certain effcc. of the fourteenth amendment and the legislation under it is to give this (the IT. S. Supreme) Court the power to control the State judiciary and to expound State legislation on nearly every subject, and cert tinly on questions never before considered reviewable here; and it is strongly suspected that to accomplish this end was the purpose of J those originating the meant res, and that S they are but steps of a series toward the ultimate centralization of the .government by means of a constitutional and legislative enactment. ** >' The amen dine it declares that "no State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of cititfwns of the I 'jiited States." and the second 6edhm of the judiciary act (enacted just after lire adoption of the amendment) provides an appeal to the Supreme Court l'roui .the highest courts of the States, in any case where "any privilege or immunity is claimed underlie Constitution and the decision is against the privilege or immunity." So that iu any suit brought Lu auy State under any State Jaw, the party has only to plead, whether truly or untruly, that his ''privileges or i immunities" as a citizen of the United States are "'abridged*' by the statute t?f the State and he can have an appeal t?tho Supreme Court of United States if the .decision of the State Court it-ad verso to his plea, and the Federal eunrt determines whether the citizen is oppressed by the Jaws of his own State, or whether in any manner his privil eges, &<?., are ''abridged," and thus the State judiciary ceases -to have final jurisdiction under the local constitution and laws, .and the judicial p< wer of the St; t j li.is ceased to exist as a tribunal independent oftl e FeV.a' power. Nearly every-authority or statute of a State abridges in some form the natural rights of the citizen.) and whenever this occurs, as it must in almost tv ry instance of the exercise of State auth r 'y. or of prosecution or suit under State law, the Federal court has appellate jurisdiction and final docisioa. If the prostitute, who walks by irght, the gain1 dor wlio inveigles and destroys the youths of cities, or the ring which plunders & corporation, choose to consider their rights to do nny those things ''abridged," by the exercise of Slate authority to prohibit them, they or either of them may have an appeal to the Supreme Court of the United iStates to adjudicate and determine the question for the State authorities, and the latter must submit to such revision. The result of all this will be that the Sep "erne Court will lay down the law for all the people, as citizens of tlw United States, no longer under the control authority of the States in which they reside, except the Federal Court shall by chance concur in the decision of the State court, and all the conscqucimccs attending upon a composite form of government will follow. '1 he law throughout the country will become uniform, and the decisions of the different States will no longer be at variance, because the final detern ination of all issues of importance will be had at the hands of the some Judges." [(Ymniunicateil.] Sh?;i Continue to Pny Tribute to the Plunderer*? Mr. Editor:?In the 1. sb issue of the Journal, you have advised a course of procedure. which seems to me so ruinous in its consequences, if adopted, that I am reluctant ly compelled to ask tnc use 01 your columns, to warn the people against it. It is so entirely impracticable ::s a scheme of relief, that little fear cf its adoption need be entertained: but it is of the last importance to the people that they deceive nut themselves, b) vague and fallacious hopes of relief from the burthens of this infamous and oppressive government. You have. Mr. Editor, high authority foi your plan of resistance. The Tax-payer's Convention of last year was called on the same leading ideaas that advanced Injyoujbul prudent men failed to see the feasibility ol the suggestion, and the Convention was happy to avail itself of what seemed to he an alternative. You advise the people to pay no more taxes. Let us see what would be the practicai operation of such a course of conduct. We arc to have a stamp act which require? a stamp to all legal process, and upen all the important papers required for the transaction of the affairs of daily life. These stamps are necessary for the legal validity ol such documents. Can you, ?Ir. Editor} can any one, avoid the payment of that tax. without locking the wheels of business, and throwJ ing society into chaos? The next form ol tax is the proposed license laws. Under heavy penalties, to be j enforced by the Criminal Courts, it is prc! hibitcd to pursue any of tlie employments I named, without first having paid for and ob' tained a license from our masters, permitting j the people of this happy laud of freedom to' | transact their lawful business. Is it not evident, Mr. Editor, that this tax also must he paid, or the burthencd employment be abandoned ? This brings us to the regular, direct tax upon property, real and personal. What will be the effect of refusing to pay this tax ? As to personal property, the question is soon ! answered. It is seized by the tax-gatherer j and sold to the highest bidder, and the owner is at once deprived of his property. As to this kind of property, then, the proposed plan will not work. Real Estate of delinquents would be advertised and sold, as required by the tax law. Town property, as a whole, a..d other lands in fractions, according to the amount of the tax. If there be no bidders, the property is forfeited to the State. It is an error to suppose the purchaser to have no immediate right of possession. He will unquestionably have this right, as may be seen by reference to the tax act of September, 1SGS. Sec. 113. 117. If there be no bid. the property is forfeit d to the State, and then there i? tmriyht of rr. /rtnp'inn off nj'ci(<<1 lumls. If there was a general dJierm%a i n on the part of land holders to pay no tax, of course it would involve the add.tional resolve to refrain from bidding at tax-sales. The radicals would not bid. because they could do better, as 1 shall show, consequently the lands of the citizens would be, as a whole, fori" i ed and vested in the State Government, without liability to redemption. What would the government do with the lands? In the first p'ace. the astute, corrupt and unscrupulous persons who are sustained in power by^ the pan-j ui jMiit uiuitunj i/111o uiaiv. would make those lands the basis of extensive financial operations, whereby they would raise more money lor their purposes than they have heretofore done by taxation and the fraudulent issue of bonds. They would dispose of them to their political partisans and corrupt adventurers, who would swarm hither as vultures to a carcass of festering fatness. The old Carolina families would be turned out as homeless and penniless wanderers on the face of the earth. This is the "consummation devoutly to be wished," by the radicals of South Carolina and their Washington friends. Conjiscufion is their object, and they will be rejoiced if we can be c ltrnppcd into assisting its accomplishment. These rulers have prepared the way for it diligently. They have stimulated the prejudice of race; inflamed the malignity horn of slavery; poisoned the cars of the masses with the doctrines of the commune; taught them that all accumulation of propertyfcvas rightfully theirs; and that the property holders were but successful plunderers of the laborers whose toil enriched them. Could anything more uetigut those people trian our voluntary surrender of'tho rights of property. to fill their pockets and insure the means of perpetuating their own wealth and power'' i think, Mr. Editor, that you will agree with me that your plan will not work. What then, can we do? It is pn?pi s d to tax us ' tliis year at. the rate of about Jirc milh'oi $ of, 1 dollars?say sixty thousand bales of cotton? I more than the value of the rent of all the ! arable lands of the Slate. About ; one half the interest at scran jvr I cent upon the wlmle assessed value of ail ' property in the State, liable to taxation.? [ Shall we pay it ? Yes! it must be paid; or we are ruined, and our tyrants rejoice.? They will be gladly sustained by Federal bayonets and a negro militia if we resort to opeu resistance, and your passive poiiey will not work. There is hut the one alternative, i Let the people, therefore, pay the robbers I their subsidy, until reason ami justice resume j their sway. Prepare for it now. Estimate the needed sum, and then turn to the narrow ] mnvajK of home affairs and personal expenses, retrench and economize and save the tribute money. Dispense with Yankee whiskey. clothes, hoots and shoes, silks, satins, | velvets, trinkets and gewgaws of foreign make. They are but the gilded chains that bind us in slavery. They constitute the medium of a taxation less obvious, but equally iniquitous and galling as lliat of the State Government. Jt would be easy lbr the most of us to save enough from these sources to pay the other plunderers. Let us live as our patriotic people did during the war.? 'flu duly is quite as imperative and sacred. Thus the plain garb of honest industry, will h uorahlv distinguish our people, from their successful plunderers, clad in purple and i fine linen, badges of their infamy and shame, j Thus we will laugh at the tax-gatherer, and j defy the poverty wh'ch threatens us. Thus i we li ill cease tr emulate the vices and follies of cur oppressors, strengthen our people in i public virtue, and be better prepared to humble ourselves under the mighty hand of God, j and awa t with patience, that relief wbi.di i shall surely cojuc to those that trust in j Him.

'ihc birtls were sold as a part of tho personal estate of Colonel Fisk, and wore two j hundred and lii'ty in number. The captives scorned to bear their imprison incut cheerfully, I and almost drowned the voices of the auc. tionccr and bidders, in their effort to make i most noise- There wcro fully live hundred ! persons present, and as the birds were guur' j anteed to sing, the bidding was quite active. The favorite of the lot, "Colonel Fisk. Jr.," f was knocked off to 13. F. Kolsey for $10 50. 5 This bird was so tame that it was seldom , caged, but wandered at will about the steamer Proci'frncc and the docks. The birds named aftor 31. 11. Simons. Jay Gould, Dr. Pollard, ' Bqp. B Ian chard and Commander Tilton, 1 were each sold for $12 to Mr. Keith. Gen. Sheridan, a remarkably sweet songster, , was sold to Scixas for $13 10. Frank McI Gowan, Charley Kimball. Gus Fuller and Charley Mcintosh, birds for which much larger sums have been refused, were bought ' by Mr. Seif, an officer of the Narrnganset V line, for from $8 to $10. I - ! iiiiwi i i IIBW ?

"What are they worth?" asked the clerk, who, in making out his account, desired to know what was the risk. Tnc young man hesitated a inomont, then clearing his throat from u certain huskness, replied: "Well, I can't say exactly, but a few weeks ago 1 thought they were worth about four hundred thousands dollars."?Lrxini/tnn prc&.

They belong to the musty past. Nobody that understands tiie chemistry of the hair and the philosophy of its growth thinks of using thcui. Instead of clogging the pores of the scalp with thick ongucnts, and thus obstructing the insensible perspiration which is essential to the health of the f bers, we now tone the suface of the head with an invigorating nj plication which penetrates to the roots of the hair and stimulates them in the same way that the fertilizing agents spreads over the meadows stimulate the grass routs and cause the blades to spring up in uiyrads, coating the earth with verdure The in vigorant best adapted to this purpose is Lynn's Kathairon. It may well be called the JbtiHzi r of the head. To the b.irrcn scalp it communicates vegetative powers. If the hair is dropping out or becoming dry and 'withered, it .'trusts the process of dilapidation or blight. The hair thickens and becomes % glossy and flexible under its genial operation and as a dressing it is unapproachcd by any preparat ion thai has yet bee laid on tho toilet of Fashion. If youdesire rosy cheeks and a complexion fair and free from Pimples and Blotches, purify your blood by the use of Dr. Pierce's Golden Aledical Discovery. It has no equal for this purpose. CARRIED.

What Dyspepsia may end In.?Indigcstiou is not dangerous, say the faculty.? Perhaps not in itself, while it remains mere indigestion; but look at the consequences to which it may lead, and often docs lead when ! it becomes a chronic disease. A spark of j fire is a small thing. A pressure of the foot I will put it out; a breath will extinguish it. Vet it may fire a powder mill, or kindle a flame that will consume a city. In like manner indigestion may produce gastritis, cancer of the stomach, congestion of the bowels, apoplexy, liver disease, and many other dangerous maladies. Is it not wise, then, to cheek it in the germ'( Nothing is more clearly and indisputably established than that llostettor'a Stomach Bitters will eradicate dyspepsia in all its stages. The true policy, however, is to extinguish it in the first stages with this wholesome, powerful, and infallible tonic arid alterative it is easier to quench a spark than a flame, and it is easier to cure dyspepsia when it is first developed, than when it has made headway by neglect, and be come complicated with other ailments. There is not the shadow of a doubt that the bitters are as directly antagonistic to dyspepsia as water is to fire. There are thousands of eases on record proving this fact. The remedy is safe at id agreeable. All the liquors of commerce prescribed as stimulants leave a st ing behind. ]>ut the sting is taken out of the spiritous basis of this great remedy by vegetable medication, and, moreover, the stimulant thus medicated is of exceptional purity. Of all tonics taken as safeguards or remedies for fever and ague, bilious reuiittants. and other epidemics, it is the only one that can uniformly be depended on. IN ORDINANCE.
