More Corruption coming 20 Light.

The report Of the Select Committee OF the
lower House OF Congress, appointed to invcsti.
gate the accounts Of the late Superintendent Of
Public Printing, disclo,es another series of frauds
that, IN any other than our own democratic '
government, would create the most intense cx-
element Mr. Seaman, who was appointed aud
fo.appoint,d by Pierce, at salary Of $4,000 a
year, to watch other people and keep them with.
in honest bounds, sccietly connived with En-
gravers, Paper Makers, and all others with whom
he had dealings, to swindle the Government, his
employer. We will cnlcavor to give some of
the facts In our next, or at an early day. The
rottcnnes aud corruption of modern locofoco
oficeholdcrS is without precedent, either in this
or any other government Men elected TO Office
by that party, seem TO think it their first, last,
aud only duty to plundor the public treasury
aud rob the people of their just and equitable
rights.

Important Resolutions.

Both branches OF our Legislature have passed
the following pointed and pertinent resolutions ::
WHEREAS, The Supreme Court Of the United
States has assumed appellate jurisdiction IN the
matter of the petition OF Sherman NJ Booth for
n writ of habeas corpus presented and prosecu-
ted To final Judgment IN the Supreme Court of
this State, and has, without process or any of
the forms recognnzed by law, assn med the pow
to render the Judgment In a matter involving
the personal liberty of the citizens asserted by
and adJudged 10 him by the regular course of
proceedings upon the great writ of liberty. Sc
cured to the people of each State by the consti-
tuition of the United States,
WHEREAS. Such assumption Of power and au-
therity by the Supreme Court of the United
States To become the final arbiter of the liberty
of the citizen, and 10 overrule aud nuIify the
Judgment of the State Courts declarative thereof
is in direct conflict with that provision of the
constitution Of the United States which secures
10 the people the benefit of the writ Of habeas
corpus therefore,
Resolred. The Senate concurrinr. that we re-
gard the action OF the Supreme Court OF the
United States In assuming the jurisdiction in the
case before mentioned. arbitrary act of
power unauthorized bv the constitution. and
virtually superceding the benefit OF the writ OF
habcas corpus. and FRUSTRATING the rights and
liberties of the people, at the tooi Of unlimited
power
Resoirci That this assumption of jurisdiction
by the federal Judiciary. in the said case and
without process, Is an act ui uude leCated pow er
and therefore without authority, void aud Of 10
force.
Resolred That the govern ment formed by the
constitution of the United States was not made
the exclusive final Judge Of the extent Of the
powers delegated 10 itself: but that as I'm all 9TH
or cases of compact among parties having no
common Judge. each party has an equal right to
Judge for itself. well Of infracioiis rs of the
mode and measure of redress
Resolred. That the principle and construction
eontsBted for by the party which now rules ia
the council. Of the nation. that the general gov
ernment i the exclusive judge of the extent oi
the powers delegated To 1t stop nothIn g.short Of
despotism since the discretion of those W no al
minister the government. and not the Coas'it4-
ton would be the measure of their powers that
the several States which formed that INSTRUMENT
being sovereign and independent. have the un-
questionable right 10 Judge Of its nfraction. and
that p9sitire defGHcs by those soverrignities of
all unauthorized acts done, or attempted 70 be
done. under color OF that instrument is the right
remedy
The people will endorse these resolutions at
the polls on the first Tuesday Of April next.

MEssas EpIToRs:- There Is a good deal OF
twaddle of late in your paper about schools and
school houses. Your correspondent "P." in
particular, has discovered mares nest which
he parades with great gusto. He complains of
the miserable filthy cellars, surrounded by a
compound of villainous smells, that are used for
school rooms; and of the want of proper aPpli
ances for carrying the work Of education.
Now, Mr.. Editor, what does all this TRADE
against the school rooms amount to? Do not
very many of the parents themselves spend
their whole lives In just such cellars? What Is
the harm in little mud and what If few
oiors not altogether ambrosial do occasionally
salute the olfactory organs of the children? 1t
is but educating them to an endurance of what
they must bear through life. Must we indulge
the rising generation in magnificent and richly
furnished schoolroons. and thus cultivate their
desire for luxurious living. while their Poor pa
rents obliged to live IN their much more
humble and uncomfortable abodes? Then as to
their unhealthiness, would ask, do the poor
people who live in sguali1 dwellings suffer
very much more i'll health than the rich who
live in luxuriously furnished palaces7
When / was boy | was content TO learn IN
a school room scarcely better than any in this
town, and it was to find any much better.
In those days it was thought there no roy
al road TO knowledge, but what we learned, we
learned by hard work and with many hard
knocks. Now We are told we must have ap-
planes in abundance. Education must be
made easy and pleasant The school room must
be made place where children viii delight
to go. Is there no danger that under such IN
duences, they will correspondingly hate their
Oh humble honest
1t there parents who think school
rooms unfit places for their children, and
can afford them more comfortable places at home
they can send them to the SEMINARY. There
/ by paying for them. they have large, airy
rooms. and all the "api liances that modern
! education demands. But | don't see why the
| whole community should be taxed to build fine
! houses fer few fastdieus people who are not
/ content with such school houses the rest Of
US think good enough for free schools.
