Courts, except before jury in the Constitu-
tional District Courts of the United States;
or to subject such persons to such trial, except
upon the Indictment Of grand jury. These
rights are guaranteed 10 every person, under
all circumstances, by the Constitution itself
And we fully believe that the loyal people of
the United States are worthy Of their fathers,
who framed the Constitution, and will be
found unwilling to surrender rights so sacred
and so essential to their Liberties.
We believe that the Executive acts of
which we complain, were done rather in inad-
vertency by subordinate officers, than in the
deliberate purpose of subverting the Consti-
tuition, or with the sanction of the President.
The stretch Of power, however, is too great
and too dangerous to the liberties of the peo-
pie, TO pass without the protest Of the free and
loyal Democracy. If done as part of full
and deliberate policy, they strike at the root
of American liberty, and we are drifting
from the safe anchorage of the Constitution
into an unknown wilderness of cruel waters.
Let whatever may come, the Democracy
will abide by their time-honered principles.

will neither surrender our rights, nor forsake
them. We viii maintain our constitutional
liberty at all hazards, and as a nc cessary step
towards that end, we will maintain the Union
in Ike manner. We are for the Constitution
as it is, and the Union as it was"
We cail upon our brethren throughout the
State to organize the party for the coming
election of members of Congress, and of the
State Legislature. We call upon them to
nominate as candidates tried and true Demo
Gratis, on strictly party principles, inviting the
support OF all persons, but acting in afhliation
with no other party or faction whatever. We
call upon them, for the sake of "liberty and
union. now and forever, one and inseparable,"
to exert all their constitutional right and
power to elect conservative men, who viii not
blasphemously assume to do any official act in
the name OF God, which cannot be done under
the sanction of the Constitution So doing
the Democracy of Wisconsin viii best serve
the cause Of the Union, and give the highest
proof of their loyalty to the Constitution.
We claim the right on their behalf and our
own, to censure the political acts of the Ad-
ministration, when we think that they deserve
1t, and TO do all lawfully within our power to
sustain the supremacy of the Constitution in
all places North and South, and over all per-
sons in Office, and out of it. And so that end
we devote our hearts, minds and estates to aid
the Administration in the most vigorous and
speedy prosecution of the war waged against
the Union by the revolted States We believe
that in so doing we fulfill the most sacred
duty we owe 20 the Constitution.
And to this, we solemnly pledge the faith
of our party and ourselves, until the war be
ended and the Constitution restored, as the
supreme law of the land, in every State of
the Union.

Mr.. w. IL. HUELBuRT, the well known cores
pondent of the New York Times, who suffered
Imprisonment at the hands of the rebels from the
time of the breaking out of the rebellion up to
few weeks ago is writing series of letters for
that paper giving the result of his observations
in the South. With reference to the negroes,
upon whom the fanatcal theorists count so conf.
dently to aid IN crushing the rebellion. Mr. HuRL-
BURT gives the following informatiOn:
OF course there are negroes, and not a few of
them. who. by their natural good sense, or their
accidental advantages of education, enabled
to understand enough Of passing events to make
them associate the name of the Yankee" with

horror and dislike which time and experience will
no doubt wear away, but which must be expected
to CO operate with the natural docility and the
cat-ke local attachments of the negro race, in
making the negroes subseTvient TO the war policy
of their masters, wherever the armies of the Union
fail actually to fix themselves, and TO supersede
the old social order by new. Even the intelli-
gent among the blacks, those who comprehend
the meaning of the freedom they desire and
willing TO do their part toward securing H. are too
intelligent not to recognize the fact that there is

The following paragraphs are respectively
from two New York papers OF the same date,
the one conservative, the other radical. That
the warning contained in the first paragraph Was
timely appears plain enough in the second para
graph;
From the New York World, Sept. II.
While there is unfortunate difference OF
opinion as to the effect Of the Presidents procla-
nation, there ought to be none at ali as 70 the
necessity of hurling all military power upon
the rebels IL once, 10 as 10 end the war il posi-
bic before the time designated for the issuance of
the final emancipation proclamation oi the Presi-
dent. Ii there is any holding back low on the
part OF the radicals in delaying the filling up OF
the armies, or in impeding and embarrassing the
movements of Gen. Mcclellan, it will be because
thev care more for the emancipation prociama-
ton than for the Union. Let them be watched.
Every consideration of public policy now de-
mands that the war be pushed on with the utmost
vigor.
From the New York Tribune, same date.
Let then, our Generals stand on the defensive,

why the RebeIs were not followed
Thursday.

One of the war correspondents OF the world
writes as follows
The most weighty military reasons existed for
the failure of Mcclellan to follow up the victory
of Wednesday and to renew the battle on the sue
ceednc day Two-d of such terrific fighting
as that on Wednesday Is not in human capacity.
Many of our General officers were killed and
wounded Our ranks had suffered such losses as
to need some reorganization in many places Our
men were tired. though Lot dispirited, and need
ed day for rest. The rebels might have bad
large numbers of fresh troops in reserve. and our
victory might have been reversed in favor of the
rebels Hundreds Of dead anu wounded were 20

some of which by themselves would not justify
the DELAY, there was the additional and more i'm
portant fact that we had not enough ammunition 10

but those disposed to disparage the brilliant and
successful management of Mcclellan against the
invaders of Maryland, can with justice complain
of his failure TO do more than he has done IN

within five miles OF Nashville, and encamped in Il
beautiful grove to refresh themselves and horses.
After brief rest they were in the saddle again.
