WHAT Is MARITAL LAw?-At the present
time the significance Of term so much
used, and with so little accurate sense of
its meaning. becomes unusually important.
Bouvier defines martial law as "a code
established for the government Of the army
and navy of the United Statee,n whose
principal rules are 10 be found in the arti-
cles of war, prescribed by the act of Con-
gress. But Chancellor Kent says this de-
fnition applies only to military law, while
martial law is quite distinct thing, aud is
founded on paramount necessity and pro-
claimed by military chief. Martial law
is generally and vaguely held to be sus-
pension OF all ordinary civil rights and
process. and as such approximates closely
n military despolism. 1t Is an arbitrary
law, originating in emergencies. In times
Of extreme peril to the State. either from
without or from within. the public welfare
demands extraordinary measures. And
martial law being proclaimed, signifies that
the operation Of the ordinary legal delays
Of justice IL suspended by the military
power, which has for the time become 50.
preme. II suspends the operation of the
right Of habeas corpus; enables persons
charged with treason to be summarily tried
by court-mattial instead of grand jury;
justi6es searches and seizures Of private
property, and the taking possession Of pub
lie highways and other means Of commu-
nicaiion. Involving the highest exercise
Of sovereignty, il is, Of course. capable Of
great abuse. and is only to be justified on
emergencies Of the most imperative and
perilous nature.

New YORK CrTV.-The London Times
sneaks Of New York City as follows:

New YORK CTY.-The London Times
speaks of New York City as follows;
The city s certainly the most remarkable
result Of wealth and enterprise which the
world has known. In an incredibly short
space Of time il has risen from the rank Of
tenih-rate town TO the third city in the
world in population and riches. In the last
ten years the larger part has been entirely
rebuilt; marble and freestone edifces OF
great size, beanty and costliness have been
substituted for the old brick houses Broad
way has been extended for miles a vast
park Of nearly eight hundred acres is being
laid out in what will be. before long, the

enterprise, and II the administration Of the
city had been in honest hands the result
would have been far more extraordinary.

CAsEs or LONGEvITY.-Many remarkable
instances Of long life have been mentioned
10y the press lately out ii ancient authori
ties are reliable. we are far behind them in
cases of unusual longevity. One account
mentions SO deaths in Great Britain, of

20 who reached lab years. Seven others
are mentioned. whose lives ranged from
$50 10 us years. A mulaIto man, ain

But MaiTans, who wrote a history of the
Indies, carries oil the palm in this respect.

named Mumas de Cugna, who died in 1866,
aged $40. This man was living history

The Traitors in Ba .tmore.

Marshal Bonnafont of Baltimore has APP
piled to Gen. Scott and Secretary Cameron
for permission to make arrests on his own
responsibility, without a warrant, as other
people will sue his bail for damages
Marshal Bonnafont SAYS that the Commits
sioners appointed by the United States Dis
trict Court are reluctant to grant war
rant, and will not, unless the application is
backed by strong affidavits, how ever great
the presumption. A warrant Is refused un-
less the facts are proved.
The Marshal does his best to stop the ex-
pOrtatiOn of arms, but has not a sufficient
force, and cannot depend on the police He
says that forty tons of gunpowder were
carted away from Baltimore some DAYS ago
through Montgomery county, to Harper's
Ferry that the rebel allies have 600 to
5000 stand of arms slowed away in private
houses of the city; that 5000 Stand more
are buried in the Eighth Ward.
Every man has his gun; arms are now
making and nightly going out of the city
in chests, being unstocked for the couve-
uience of packing. Disunionists from Har-
Per's Ferry are constantly going and COM
ing out Of and into the city. Forty &.riv-

more, but his observations and experience
there constTain him to say that should the
fortunes Of war favor the rebels in a single
battle, the scenes which will follow in Bal
timore will test the truth of his assertions.
He says the secesionists are ouly waiting an
opportunity to hang all who have proved
themselves loyal to the Union, and that
they are now aiding the insurrectionists

Rights men are determined to hold their po-
sihOn, though they should be in a minority.
A circular addressed from Nashville to
the Union men in Tennessee, condemns the
course Of the Government, and advocates
the raising of troops, deplores secession as a
course, urges them to place Tennessee by
the side of Kentucky, to keep out of active
party position in the war, and says that
late information leads to the hope that by ii
manly effort they will succeed, and a large
vote swill be polled in Middle and East
Tennessee.
