SHINPLAsTERs AGAIN.-The merchants OF
Utica have generally signed an agreement to
reject shnplasters issued by corporations or
individuals outside of that city, as follows -
Whereas, Our city is fast becoming flooded
with great variety of shinplasters, issued by
unknown parties from all parts Of the State
and whereas, we are now abnndantly supplied
with small change notes issued by parties in
our city, therefore, .... ...
RssoIoed, That we the undersigned mer-
chants, wlllnot, after the 10th day of Novem-
Der instant, receive any shlnplasters except
those issued by responsible parties in the city
of Utica.
Commenting upon the above, Syracuse
paper remarks: Our citizens will be COM
pelled in self-defence, to take action of this
kind, and the sooner it is done the better
The nuisance Of foreign shinplasters, about
which no body here knows anything good,
must be abated, and we are glad to know that
some of our leading business men already re-
fuse TO receive them.
The best course that We know of for our
state at least, as we said yesterday, is for our
banks to issue bills, in fractional parts of a
dollar, while private individuals are prohibi-
ted from the shinplaster manufacture by suf-
ficiently stringent legislation. The fractional
notes of banks would circulate as generally as
their other bills, while the shinplasters of IN
dividuals are generally worthless anywhere ex-
cept in tie immediate locality of their issue,
and very often there. We do not see why
these bank notes, together with the u S. pos
tai currency, would not be sufficient to satisfy
the public. Let us have them, then; and
nothing else, until our eyes are again glad
dened with the genuine ''change"

The Emancipation Proclamation was rat
fled BY large meeting Of tho people held
in front Of tho west end Of the Capitol,
Monday evening. Stirring addresses were
made BY Mr.. Dorsey, Gen. Wallace, Gov.
Tod and Mr.. Galloway. Tho following
sketch Of the speeches is from the CONNER
cial.
g. volney Dorsey old line Democrat,
State Treasurer, was the first speaker. He
took strong and decided ground in favor Of
the Presidents Emancipation Proclamation.
All party feeling must be sunk. The Gov
erument must be sustained. Old Abe had
hit upon the right plan TO end this REBEL.

the hands Of the rebels. The rebels bad
begun to howl, which was proof positive
that they we're touched 10 tcuder spot. -

and are squirming and writhing under the
Emancipation Act Of the President. God
grant that it would do its work etfectually,
and deprive tho rebels Of their strong arm,
In Europe this act would have great moral
effect. The speaker closed amid the cheers
Of the vast assemblage.
Lew Wallace next arose, and was received
with loud huzzas. He was soldier; his
trade was to kill traitors. The Presidents
Emancipation Act was ten strike. II
was the best blow yet struck at the REBEL
ion. 1t should have been issued to take
effect list Of January, 1852, instead Of Jan.
uary, 1868. II the army had been allowed
TO use slaves the rebellion would long since
have been crushed. He closed with an in
vocation to duty at home-the army would
do its duty in the field.
Amid immense cheers Gov. David Toe
was ushered before the people. He wa
gratiied to give his views on the proclama
ton. IL heartily endorse every word Of il

The Governor retired amid cheers.
AS close, Sam Galloway is cracking his
Jokes in his familiar way, amid the shouts
of the people. Mr.. Galloway heartily in
dorsed the proclamation. Gov. DeDnisor
did not speak. He was sick, but sent 6
note indorsing the proclamation.

Important words.

The following are the concluding para
graphs Of an article in the Christian Advo.
cate and Journal Of Sept. 25th:
The great lesson of the hour contains
Gods estimate of sin. Shall we learn il?
Ooe sin only is being punished in this fiery
trial of the nation. Individuals sins may
be punished in individual loss, but all of
national loss and degradation is lifted up as
a measure of the gilt of one national sin.-
The loss Of the productive labor Of its men
in arms; the ruin OF its great national high
ways; the partial stopping Of its widespread
commerce; the making deserts of fertile,
teaming States; the enormous outlay Of its
treasure for no good end; the loss of its
vigor in strong yeomen by the hundred
thousand the turning of the love that bound
the nation together into hate; the deep hu-
initiation of tho proud land before the whole
world; the weakening of its influence as q
first power in the world; the blight of its
bright example for good, all this and i'm
meuseiy more measures Gods hate of sin
lgle sin.
Mark, too, the poetic justice by which he
measures the penalty to each. Virginia,
the mother of the system Of sin, and origin
ator of its most cursing features, has felt
the curse of war surging through its more
guilty parts, wave on wave, delnge on del
Iuge, of disasters and ruin. The whole South
incased in wall Of Ere, has writhed il
the agony of its punishment; while the
North, less guilty, but by no means inno-
Icent, has been free from the horrors Of wal
to great extent. Its sacrifice is mostly
treasure; as il God were saying, "Gold got
ten by completely with crime shall be scat
tered"
The running-title over every page Of the
volumniuous record and history of this hor-
rid war should be, @rHoUGH HAND JOIN WITH
HAND, TPE WICKED SHALL NOT GO UNPUN-
IsHED."

rhe question Of Con..l.utionaIlty.

The question OF COnstitu1onnlttys
In the full report Of the late speech Of
Charles Sumner at Boston, we find the fol-
lowing review Of the constitutionality Of the
emancipation measure:
"But it is said that all appeal to the
slaves is unconstitutional; and it is openly
assumed that rebels who make war on the
Constitution, are not like other public en-
omies, beyond its protection. But why this
peculiar Tenderness whenever Slavery is in
question: Battalions may be shot down,
aud property may be taken without due
process Of law, but Slavery must not be
touched. The ancient Egyptians, when
conquered, submitted easily to the loss oI
life and property; but when Roman sol
der happened to kill cat in the streets
they rose on him and tore him limb from
limb, and Ibe excitement was so violent that
the generals overlooked the outrage, for
fear Of insurrection. Slavery is our sacred
cat, which cannot be touched without feaI
Of insurrection. SiF, am tired and disgust
ed at hearing the Constitution perpelually
invoked for Slavery. According to certain
persons, the Constitution is all for Slavery
and nothing for Freedom. am happy tc
say that with me Just the reverse is the
case. There are people who keep apothe-
cares scales 10 which they nicely weigh
everything that is done for Freedom. l
have no such scales where Freedom is in
question; nor do l hesitate TO say, that in a
case OF Freedom, all such nicely is uncon-
stitutionaI. The Constitution is not mean,
stingy and pettifogging, but itisopeu hand
cd, liberal and Just, inclining always 10 favor
Of Freedom, aud enabling the Government
in time Of war, not only to exercise any o
the rights Of war, including the Liberation
Of slaves, bat also to confer any largess OF
bounty-it may be Of money, or, better still
of Freedom-foF services rendered. l do
not now dwell on the unanswerable argu
ment by which John Quincy Adams ha.
placed this power beyond question. What
ever may be the provisions Of the Constitu
ton for the protection Of the citizen, they
are inapplicable 70 what IS done against !
public enemy. The law Of an Italian city
prohibited the letting Of blood under penal
ty ofdesth, but this was held not to apply
70 the surgeoa who opened Vein TO saw
the life Of q citizen. In war, there is nC
constitutional limit TO the activity Of the
Executive, except the emergency. Tb'
safety Of the people is tho highest law
TheFs is 10 blow which the President ear

the ssbslIion. which Is not constitutional
OnAy inaciion can be unconstitutional"

M. z. C. Pearson. shipowner, Of Hull, is
"una5ls 70 meet bis hcceptauces."1 In
plainer language. he Is bankrupt. Mr..
Pearson, who was apparently merchan,
10 good line Of business when our war
broke out, went largely into the "Southern
trade which seems 10 have q curious charm
for John Bull. He saw before him the
shadow Of an immense fortune, and, like the
dor 10 tho fable, he dropped what he had
already secured, and plunged over head and
ears into the guilt Of Southern trade, after
the aIluring shadow. On The FIRST Of this
month he emerged, dripping, proper, but
We trust, wiser Bull
The liabilities Of Mr.. Pearson were stat
ed, whom tho steamer LEFT, at four hundred
thousand pounds sterling g--ebout two mil-
lions Of dollars. The profits Of tho South
srn trade arc great-but they are hard tc
get. The Southern merchant just now de
mands long credit; he likes to owe, bu
he does not like to pay; hO is apt to put Of
the evil day, and has = gentemanly aver
sion to squaring accounts, which arises, per
haps, from the habit Of taking the labor o.
his slaves for nothing. He exclaims with
the chivalric Pistol, "base is the slave thai
pays"
OF al this Mr.. Pearson might have go
at least some hint, il he had been pruden
enough to make inquiry 10 New York o
Philadelphia as 70 the commercial charac
ter and standing Of the "Southern gentle
men," But he choose to ask nobody's ad
vice. He was not to be cheated Of his ia
vorite gold mine; he was not 10 be baulkeC
of the fortune he saw within his grasp. HI
would have his own way, like genuin
Bull-and be has now had it.
Il is iugeBuously stated, that while som
Of Mr.. Pearson's ships have been captured
from the cargoes Of others, which safely raj
the blockade, he gained heavy profits; bu
'his agents find difficulty in transmittin,
the proceeds with safety and punctuality.

Il is reported that the rebel authorities
have forbidden the publication Of the Presi-
dents Emancipation proclamation in the
southern papers, aad that the rebel soldiers,
fearing the effect Of the promise Of freedom
upon the slaves, have already begun 10
demand permission to return TO their homes
TO protect their families. There are striking
indications Of the good effects of the Presi-
dents new policy. Il is home-thrust at
the rebels. and they squirm as vigorously
as an eel which has been impaled upon the
spear that is to land him high and dry on
