Extract from the speech of Mr.. Evans
of Ohio. in the II. of r.
The signs of the times are portentous
We have reached a new era in our histo-
ry. Doctrines are promulgated, and pow
ers assumed and exercised, which go far
to change the form of our Government
The checks Of the legislative department,
upon the Executive are broken down, and
some OF lis most important powers are
wrested from its hands. The custody of
the public property is aimed TO be ex-
cluslvely in the President, and beyond the
power of Congress otherwise TO dispose
OF IT. The right 10 direct and control ev.
cry officer of the Government in the per.
Torrance of duties imposed by law, is al.
so distinctly claimed. Have we not a
Treasurer OF the United States, bound BY
oath faithfully TO discharge his duties, and
under bond TO keep the public money
saielyP Yet the President assumes to be
responsible for his conduct, and for that
reason TO have the right 10 control him
and to remove him if he do not keep the
public money where he may direct; and
where the Treasurer may think il wholly
unsafe. The legislative will is not only set
at defiance, by the frequent exercise of the
"veto" power, but the President claims
the right to execute the laws "as he I'M
derstands them" and TO be bound by the
Constitution only "as he understands itn
The judicial power TO decide the construc-
ton oflaws, treaties and the Constitution.

South Carolina. - The decision Of the Supreme
Court Of the State upon the question Of the test
oath, which has caused much excitement for
some months past, is Of great Importance. The
oath had been adjudged constitutional by the
District Court at Charleston, and an appeal taken
TO the Supreme Court at Columbia. The deci-
sion Of the latter given the I'd inst. Judges
O'Ncil and johnson delivered their opinions a
gainst the constitutionalty Of the oath Judge
Harper disscnted from the opinions Of his asscci
ates, but did not present his views at length.
This decision has caused great excitement
throughout the State, and, judging from the Ian.
gaage Of the press, party strife will be seriously
aggravated by it. meeting had been held at
Columbia, at which, among others, the following
resolution was adopted
'Reso'red, That the opinions Of the majority
Of the Court in this case, contain doctrines anti
republican, conformable 10 the infamous Procla-
nation, dangerous 10 liberty, and subversive Of
the rights Of the State
The meeting also passed resolutions request
ing the Governor to convene the Legislature for
the purpose OF passing laws defining and punish
ing treason against the State.
