What is Martial Law.

At the present crisis the significance of
term so much used, and with so little &C.
curate sense of its meaning, becomes unu-
sually important ...... .s
Bouvier defines martial law as Ga code
established for the government of the army
and navy of the United States. whose prin.
cipal rules are to be found in the articles
Of war, prescribed by Act Of Congress-
But Chancellor Kent says this deiiuition
applies only to military tar, while martial
law is quite distinct thing, andis founded
on paramount necessity, and proclaimed by
a military chief. Martial law is generally
and vaguely held to a suspension Of all or.
dinary civil rights aud process, aud assuch
approximates closely to military despotism.
1t is an arbitrary law, originating in emcr-
gencies. In times Of extreme peril to the
State, either from without Or from within.
the public welfare demands extraordinary
measures. And martial law being pro-
claimed, signifies that the operation Of the
ordinary legal delays of justice is suspend
cd by the military power, which has for the
time become supreme.
1t suspends the operation of the writ Of
habcos corpus, enables persons charged with
treason to be summarily tried by court mar
tial instead of grand jury, justites searches
and seizures of private property, and tho
taking possession of public highways and
other means of communication. Involving
the highest exercise of sovereignty, it is, of
course, capable Of great abuse, and is only
to be justified on emergencies of the most
imperative and perilous nature.

nett, says, in the issue of the Goth: =, 3D..
Mr.. Lincoln, We suppose, means we'll
CROUCH, and is not traitorous to the country.
We cannot, therefore, get rid Of him; but
he can very easily get rid Of bis Cabinet,
and appoint vigorous Administration in
its stead. That is the legitimate course,
and which ought to be Immediately adopted.
During the last two days there is pain.
ful and growing impression upon the pub
lie mind, and particularly among the chiefs
of the Republican party, that "honest Old
Abe" is not equal to the emergency in
which he is placed-an emergency sufd.
cient to try the intellect and the courage Of
a Napoleon. The merchants of New York
are detected and dispirited, fearing, not
withstanding the sacrifices they are making,
and the glowing enthusiasm which has been
evoked at the North, that all will end in
smoke, aud the expedition to the South re-
suit in failure. They dread, not without
some reason, the approach of Jefferson Da-
vis and his able Lieutenant, Beauregard,
and the subtle craftsmanship Of Stephens.
They are, therefore, holding numerous Sc:
cret meetings, as so many committees Of
public safety, each independently of the
others, from the common instinct of self.
preservation; and We understand that sim.
liar meetings are being held in Philadelphia,
where the same distrust prevails as to the
competency of the Administration. In
both cities they speak Of organizing force
at their own expense and upon their own
responsibility, to keep the direct route to
Washington open at all hazards. It is pro,
posed to organize an army of $4,000 men
in each city, to arm aud equip them, to
collect provisions, and send with them a
commissariat for their sustenance.

The Apocalyptic Walls Opened.

If one will pause and take view Of the
world at this moment, he will see what was
never more perfectly seen upon the face of
the earth. The world is convulsed, as it
probably never has been since the creation,
with wars and rumors of wars, by famine
and desolation. History does not present
such a general tumult of nations as We now
see. It would seem that the vials of the
Revelations were opened and that discord
and blood were rained down upon our gen
Grafton. What tie issue will be of all the
dreadful entauglements which now environ
the nations, time only will show Certain
ly no one can divine it. Within a few
years We have beheld the most magnificent.
ly dreadful wars of which history has any
record. Nations have been conquered and
subiugated to the caprices of ambitious and
tyrannical sovereigns. Indian revolts, Sy-
rian massacres, and murderous sieges have
sapped the life.blood of millions. Europe
is lust DOW convulsed from centre to cir.
cumference. Poland and Hungary are ripe
for revolt. Russia has emancipated her
serfs, and annexed large tract Of country
lately derived from China, whose coasts are
still infested and guarded by English and
French fleets. Sardinia stands demanding
Venitia and Rome, and Austria and Ger
many proper, resist her. France holds Sy-
ria for the Sultan of that wretched country,
but is ready to appropriate it to herself
whenever Emperor Napoleon thinks it poll.
cy to do so. England and France are ft-
ting out naval fleets for the coasts Of the
United States, and the United States them

The Real Sentiment of Cincinnati.

The Real Sentiment of Cincinnati.
An immense meeting was held in Gin
cinnati on Friday evening, in which Gov.
Dennison's suggestion that the shipment Of
provisions and arms to Southern States that
have not seeded, ought not to be interfered
with, was repudiated. .ss ..yra.. 'e
Mr.. Eggleston, the President, said
"Kentucky cannot remain neutral any
more than Ohio-a barrier between the
traitors and their deserts. When the Pres.
ident orders US to march through Kentucky
to chastise the rebels further South, we will
do it. Tremendous applause, and cries of
'that's so!'] Those States are not loyal
who impose even a passive resistance to the
Government, and Kentucky must form no
exception to the rule He would not let a
musket or an ounce of ammunition and pro-
visions 60 to Kentucky we we'll know
where there destiny is, if once they cross
the river" .r. .."
Gen. s. +. Cary said that in Louisville
expeditionsin in aid of the Southern Confed-
eracy were fitted out openly, and the men
who pretended to be for the Union did not
rebuke them. n IF there be Union men in
Kentucky, they should come outaDd let ns
know who they are. Unless they speak
now they are traitors. We can only recog-
nize as friends those who are active for the
Government. Let those who are neutral
have neither aid nor comfort. Cheers =
The passage through all parts Of the COM
mon country must be kept open. Let Bal.
timore be laid in ashes, and Maryland con.
verted into free State if this will only
open the way to the capital. [Cheers. @
Our work is greater than that done by
our fathers, for it is more difficult to sus.
tain than to erect a government. This re-
bellion must be crushed at any cost, even if
the country be converted into bowling
wilderness, to be inhabited by better race
of men. .... So s.>..t -. s.. ~.
The meeting was addressed by many other
speakers in similar train, when the fol-
lowing resolutions were most emphatically
endorsed: .... .,.-a, --e.e-.. .asss-s.. ss-''
Resolred, That any man or set Of men,
in Cincinnati or elsewhere, who knowingly
sells or ships one ounce of flour, or pound
of provisions, or any arms or other articles
which are .contraband of war, to any per-
son or any State which has not declared its
firm determination to sustain the govern
ment in the present crisis, is traitor, and
deserves the doom of q traitor. ....
General Cary offered the following, which
was adopted with one hearty and unanimous
"aye:" ..-.
Resozrea, Thatif the Union men of Ken
tucky will stand by the flag of our country,
we will stand by and defend them, now,
and when the war is over.
The following was adopted unanimously:
Pesolre0, That in the sense of this meet
ing, earned neutrality" by any State Of
this 1'nion is rebellion to the Government.
DR.. Jordan offered the following, which
was adopted, after which the meeting ad-
iourned s
Rcso7sc7, That it is the opinion of this
meeting that no more troops should be
marched around the city of Baltimore.

PRESIDENT DAVIS AT THE NORTH
The Cleveland (O) P9oindeo1er, in speak.
ing Of the South and its rulers, holds the
following complimentary language Of Pres:
ident Davis: @>,"s..l %. %. "".@.'... 80.
"The South have got plenty of talent
and pluck. There is no discount on that.
Davis is one IF the best military men in
the world. He is literally son Of Mars.
The sou-in.law of Gen. Taylor, educated
at West Point, had command in Mexico,
was aftcrward Secretary Of War, be knows
from books, all the theories, and from prac-
tic, all the arts of war. He knows all the
military men ofthe North and of the world.
We never shall forget the first time we
called Oh him, merely to pay our respects,
while Secretary of War under Pierce. AL.
though total stranger, he took us to a map
hanging on the wall, representing the Crl.
mean country, on which he had traced in
red lines the eucampments, works, ditch
iugs, and other operations Of the allied ar
mies then besiegiug Sebastopol. His coun-
tenancc glowed when describing the feats
of geueralship there displayed, and We
learned from him in that short interview all
the peculiarities of the English, French
aud Russian modes of warfare, their militia
ry discipline and military men. He evil
dently sighed then to be Napoleon" s
