Judge Taney has finally subSidrd, after,
for the third time endcavOring to destroy
the Government. II he again attempts
to impede the progress Of the Admins
tration, In itB effnrts to sustain the Con-
stitution and the laws, he riH certainly
be impe1chCd;; but if he be content To he
Q law-abiding citizen, he SoiU be permitted
to t0tter into the drGre s6ithUut being cti.
cially branded as u truit0r.-Nelo York
Times.
The FIRST time Judge Tansy "endcav.
Ored to destroy the Government" we sup
pose, WAS when he sustained Gen. jackson
in the removal Of the DepOSites from the
corrupt custody Of the Bank of the Uni.
ted States. The second time was when
he delivered the opinion Of the majority Of
the Supreme Court Of the United States,
10 the effect TINT neither Congress nor the
Territorial Legislatures could annul the
right Of emigration with slaves to the Ter
ritories. and that the prohibition Of slave.
ry could only be made by the States.
The third time, is the ISSUE Of the writ
Of h0beGs corpus to bring before the civil
authorities, citizen held by the military,
under charge Of treason. And for this,
he is threatened with impeachment; and
assailed with coarse vituperation by the
sensasioniSt press!
We shall not defend him in this last in.
stance, except to say that he would have
been worthy Of impeachment il he had
refused to grant this great writ Of freedom
to any citizen properly applying for it.
That Act may be delied by the military
power; but it cannot be refused by the
Judicial power. Whatever necessities
may arise, amid the cxigencies Of the war,
itcan never become the duty Ofthe Judges
to nullify the law.
We know how little anything we can
say can effect the headlOng course Of
events; and how little the depreciation Of
any citizen can call public opinion into its
old channel of respect for law, or the law
makers themselves to their duty of subor.
dinatiOn to the Constitution.
The voice Of rebuke will be needed pcr.
hapS when it comes from abroad. The
passage of the Morrill, tariff has done
much TO ALLEVIATE from US the good opinion
Of the world. We wonder why England
docs not rally to our side in the cause Ol

will not the phrase be echoed back to US,
coupled with reminders of our unwar.
rantcd and wholesale seizure Of private
papers, the Executive assumption Of power
to raise armies and navies without re
course to the representatives Of the pco.
pie, and this notification of the h0beas
corpus, without the leave Of Congress, or
the declaration Of martial law. The his.
tory Of constitutional Liberty In England
has been for these rights thus disrcgnrded
here; and the citizens Of that country
will look with wonder at our passive sub.
mission to these assumptions of power,
and with indignation at our hypocrisy in
still claiming to be the champions Of Con.
stitutional Liberty.-AiOdmy Allds and

In this City, on Tuesday morning. 18th inst
after . short but painful illness. Miss MARY Mills,
adopted daughter of Mr. John GiIlaspie, aged l6
years and months.
Death is no respecter Of persons lie visits
alike the palace Of kings the houses of the veal
Thy, and the hovels of Ioverty. He strikes down
unf-rlingly the silver headed old man and the love
" youth. He comes in hour when We think not
Of him aye. with unkinJ hand he throws open
the windows Of chambers and entering robs us
Ct our loved ones We are called upon to mourn
one of his invasions- Already the dismal sound
o the cold ciods they fall upon the coffin tell US
gone forever" But we must not mourn for MARY
those without hope, for she died christian and
only as christian can die She connected herself
With the Methodist Church about year since, and
gave proof Of her love for the church and religion
by her well ordered life and conversation She
seemed conscious of her approaching death and
spoke of it with calmaess and eomPosure. giving
the most minute directions concerning her burial
Death had no tenors for her. She passed away
like one" who gathers the drapery of his couch
about him. and lays himself down to pleasant
dreams"
The funeral ceremonies took place at the Meth
Otist Church in this city this morning. the sermon
being preached by Dr. Col burn.

Senator Douglas, in tbs debate of the

reply to Senator Doolittle, of Wisconsin,
said:
The Senator has made great profess

paeIiication ami compromise as will pre-
serve 1t. in my opinion, there is q delibe-
rate plot to break up this Union. under pre-
sence OF preserving IL In my opinion there
are as many disunionists ON this floor and
on the floor of the other branch of Cong

men who have reasoned themselves into the
belief that it Is wiser ami better to drive
the sections into collision, to force disun-

know that the use of military force. pro-

in q civil war between fifteen States on one
side, and the remainder Of the States of the
Union On the other. How can you avoid
