grant further that II Ia treason TO vote against
che Abolltionists, and It logically follows that
free elections should share the fate OF the
habeas corpus, II now appears that the radicala
admit this consequence Of their strange princi-
ples, but they have hit upon more artful and
refined method of giving them practical eifeot'
They have decided 20 try their chances OF sue
Gees at the polls, and then, If they are beaten,
prevent the officers elect from entering on the
discharge OF their duties. The plan 10 clearly
developed In the following extract from letter
honored with q conspicuous place In the ISnes
of Sunday:
"With European recognition, and constant
efforts, open or secret, to aid the South, the
Government at Washington will need all the
unity and efficiency contemplated in recent
proclamatons. II will require million of
men and proportional supplies. Martial law
over the entire North Is o national necessity. -
II the Governors Of the Northern States mani
feet facsious spirit, the Provost Marshale. 1t
Is presumed, will have the power to keep them
| In order. II State Legislatures should under.
take to interfere with the action of the Cen
eral Government, necessary to tho prosecution
of the war, they will come under the action of
martial law, and II the action of any political
party shall threaten to change or paralyze the
movements Of the Government, IL will doubt
less be competent for the Provost Marshal in
any State to suspend political meetings and
postpone elections. If the Constitution Of the
United States Ia to be construed according to
the necessities Of civil war Of vast proper
tioDs, the Constitutions of individual States
can not be allowed to etsnd in the way of Its
vigorous prosecution
"Englishmen are In great trouble at the ille'
gality aud unconstitutionslity of the acts OF
President Lincoln. They havo q great tender.
nees for the Constitution and the laws. and feel
very badly that the Northern people, while con-
quering the South, should lose their own liber-
ties. They tell us that the President cannot do
this ard that--that his proclamations are only
waste paper. They appear to have very little
idea of what the Commander in Chief of the
Army and Navy Of the United States can do.
A man of firm and resolute will, with million
Of man in arms to support him, can do pretty
much what he pleases. They have to learn that
paper Constitutions, however convenient they
may be, can be amended when necessary, sus-
pended, or laid aside altogether, and that it is
no longer a question 10 America what this or
that Constitution authorizes, but what is neces
sary to be done to make Of thirty-four States
and vast territory one nation."i

to Almighty God, for His goodness and mere

pccially at time like tho present, should al
good citizens unite in laying aside the ordinary
business of life, at least for day, and deVot'

The effort made by the legally constituted

the gallant sons Of Ohio have borno so con

Our Heavenly Father can console the dis

such wisdom to all the people OF the earth, as
will enable them 10 conform to His Laws, to the

From the War Bulletin. To- J. W. Tucker, Esq, of Missouri and the "People of the Confederate States

I have read, Mr. Tucker, your address in behalf of Missouri, ito the people.of the Confederate Statos,' dated Springfield, Deer. 24, 1861, and published in the Ar kansian. of this town With much of that address cordially agree; but on reading that portion referring Cthough not by name) to Gen. Ben McCnloch, | invoIun- tarily exclaimed, in the language of the be- traved CmSer, "Et tn Brute" l felt that it was the crowning act in a series ot un- inst and untrue allegations against one oi the bravest of the brave, truest of the true. and noble~t of tho noble men of these Con- feleratc States:-and so feeling was sur prised and grievod that you sir, of alfthe patriots in Missouri, should lend the influ ence of your name to give them currency. beg to say that paragraph in this 5ulle- tin, under your name. was written and III type betore I saw your address. It is pub lished sincc. itr rtTi,t' rtT,t same spirit in which it was written; and trust, Is sufficient guar anty of the estimation in which you, as brother patriot, are held by me.
 You say
 "With the exception of the battle of Sprinfeld, not q sword has been drawn for the release of Missouri, except by her own sons. Mr. Tucker seems to have forgotten the battle of Belmont, fought and glorious ly won by Polk. Pillow and Cheatham with Arkansas, Tennessee, Mississippi and, La. troops At the memorable battle of Oak Hills the Confederate comman- der was asked for the assistance of the three regiments to pnrsuca defeated and disorganized foe, where 1000 men and Sl.- 900 900 worth of property were within our reach but Gen. Price asked in vain. So his requests were responded to when he went to fight the battles of Dry Wood and Lexington. Not man, not gun, not . percussion cap, for the want of which lat ter article he was compelled to fall back 200 miles with an army of 20 000 men!- During the period, within which the State could have been disenthralled, our Confed- crate allies have maintained their camp on our southern border in inglorious likeness not even protecting Missouri from Kansas Jahawkers We know these allied troops are as brave men as ever wentto battle, and that they chafed like caged lion to join the Missourians in their we'll sustained ress- tance: but these troops had no order to move. Can this be explained? There was no enc my 10 fight in Arkansas, and the army of Missourians was in every action and move mont guarding the gates to Arkansas, Loui- siana and Texas"

plan by which cattle and horses may be fed on corn aione without hay or fodder and will grow fat on it.
 The experiment., which VIC have seen others try and which we have tried ourselves, IS simple and cheap. Take two barrels that will bold water, (where there are many cattle, the best plan is to have hogsheads, or large ciserns, or vats made,) and fll these with corn on the ear, and then with water. Put in the barrel q few pounds of salt, enoush to give th water s..,tsh sast for five or six days waen you commence feeding. When one barrel is empted, re6l;tand feed from the other. Your horses and cows will eat corn. cob aud the shuck entirely up. Indeel, ii you offer them cobs thus soaked in salt water, with, out corn, they will eat them greed.ly Cattle, thus fed, receive . soft and glossy skin, their digestion end appetite arc in goo order, they
 increase in flesh and strength and the cows give more milk, and Of superior quality. Horses are healthier and sounder. The cob thus soft ened and eaten with the corn is analogous to the bran in wheat, which, eaten with it, makes
 it twholesomer To people living in towns, who keep COW or horse, this plan is one that will save them third if not onehalf the cost of keeping, and they will have better and healthier COW or horse, as the ease may be. There Is no danger of the animal eating too much salt.--- Animal chemistry shows that it is an i'm portant ingredient of the stomach, and eagerly sought. No nutritiSe Rrs9erfy of the corn is lost by soaking it, while it is rendered more easi ly digestibe and this process is facilitated by the cob, which is eaten with 1t. Let our readers try the experiment once, even fit be with g bucket full, and they will see that their cattle will thrive fiaely on half of what they now consume.
