be responsibility Of the frost confded to him. The
rmers of the Constitution knew that ancient Re-
Dublics had fallen because the control OF the military
power had been vested in eeuGte or IN an
olpareby or in different heads, aud hey, therefore,
tanned this provlsiJn of the Constitution Of whicn
Judge Story says that the powers are obviously
of an executive nature. The Supreme Court had
passed opol this question. President foik exercised
the power in reference even to foreign tern ne
the civil by the military law III Mexico
under which he regulated the payment OF duties,
and ChiefJ Justice Taney, in pronouncing upon the
legality Of that action, said that Is power and duy
were purely military; as Comnander-in. CMei, lie
was authorized TO direct the movements OF the MILL
tary forces placed by law at his comnanr, and 10
employ them in the manner which he might deem
most proper to harass and snbdue the enemy: Aora-
BAN Lincoln, as the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS ol ,t .he
Army of the United States, on looking over the
whole field, says: After the experience OF eighteen
months, find that these slaves OF the
Rebels are their principal support. IND
that by this involuntary servitude they
are sble to furnish Thousands of men to dig
their dtehas aud do the work which Otherwise thei
white troops would be obliged to do, 20 keeping
them fresh and ready for duty. lie Gays: find,
further that when all the men from ID to 30 are
pressed into the rebel army, they can leave their
slaves at home to do their work. Now here, lie
says, if here were great place for the deposit OF
rifles and muskets, no man could doubt that could
use the whole power OF the nation 10
take it away from them. Ab. but it
is urged the Constitution does not allow IT without
due process of law. j suppose the President has
right through the army to arrest Rebels without
worran. issuei by Justice OF Peace, or 10 shoot
them down without an indictment, and by the same
power, he says, he has the right to say, will bring
The whole military force Of tus nation against this
institution of Slavery that sustans AID encourages
this Rebellion. Loud and long continued applause
and waving of fhandkerchiefs That mil tary order
is binding upon every officer and soldier Of his army
and rejoice that the papers of to-day have furnished
all order issued by Gen. Mcclellan, In which he
shows that he understands Lis duties as an officer,
