BuRY1Na CANNON. soldier Of an
Illinois Regiment writes home the fol-
lowing!
"A raw cavalry recruit at the Tuscum-
bia river last Monday, found two or three
newly made secesh graves. He told his
comrades he was going to dig down and
see how dead secesh looked. He did so.
and would you believe it, he found a.
pound cannon. So he tried another one
and dug up -62pounder. He then re-
ported to his officers his adventure, who
sent out party to search. They found
in all six heavy guns, all buried in graves
with headboards properly marked with
the name and regimant Of the deceased.
Since our regiments has been here, We
have found, secreted in the woods several
guns, knives and swords, some Of them
very fine weapons"

Mcdowell AND HIS CoRPs.R.-The
Washington correspondent Of the Even
ing Post says of Mcdowell and bis
corpse: II notice in several northern
journals statements to the effect that
Gen. Mcdowell, with his corps of 10000
men, has joined Mcclellan in front OF
Richmond. As the Star said last night,
this is all 'bosh.' McDowell's troops
have not yet reached Fredericksburg,
on their way from Front Royal and Ma.
nassas Junction. Where they now are,
or where they are going, it would be i'm.
proper to state, but that anybody could
make such wild statement a. the one
alluded to is surprising. Certainly no
one cognizant Of the facts could have
done it."

AGO. The following is from an article
on american Heroism," in the Portfolio,
relating to fig ht forty-nine years ago:
Daniel Glasgow Farragut-a midship-
man on board the Essex, thirteen years
Of age, was knocked dewn by splinter
which struck him on the thigh, and dis
abled him during the remainder Of the
action. While supporting himselfby the
railing which was placed around the
hatchway, on the quarter deck, an
eighteen pound ball carried away the tail
Of his coat. Several men were killed
very near him, yet not the slightest
change was perceived either in his coun-
tenance or manners. But no sooner were
the colors struck than he burst into tears.

The TOBACCO QUEsTIoN.-How few
OF US, comparatively speaking, who
chew the quid, puff the cigar, color the
meerschaum or snuff the vile dust, take
a thought that the weed has an imports
ant effect upon the proudest governments
of the earth, yet this is the case. The
present war must materially reduce the
tabacco supply, whereat the English
and French nations are not little
alarmed. The Opinion rationale, an
EN- nent French Journal, makes the fol.
lowing remarks:
England purchases from the United
States about $4,000 hhds., on which
she imposes tax Of 100000; and
France buys about 10000 hhds,
from which she obtains a revenue OF
more than 100000.
AN important deficit in the supply OF
tobacco would create grave embarrass-
ments for all the governments OF
Europe, but above all to the English,
French and Dutch. It is to be feared
this deficit will be alarmingly obvious
the coming year. An memorable fatali-
~ seems to follow tobacco at the pre-.
sent moment. For two consecutive
year, the crop has almost entirely failed
10 Brazil and in Cuba the plant has be.
come diseased, greatly reducing the
crop. Atm" time has Europe been so
mocn IN need Of the tobacco of the
United States, aud thew have NO,
en- 1%oneo Tor their own consumption.
Inc question Of tobacco is, then, the
the order Of the day, and requires a so
luton no less pressing than the cotton
question. 'e'

ABOLITION DOCTRINE.

SATURDAY MORNING. JUNE rs, 1862
ABOLITION DOCTRINE.
For the sake of seeing the kind o
stuff that the ultraists Of Congress are
made Of, just read the following extract
taken from . recent speech made By
Representative Julian, 10 Congress:
aOases may arise in phich patriotism
itself may demand that WE rRAHpLs
UNDER OUR rxxr SOME CT THE MOST
VITAL PRINCIPLES OF THE CON
STITUTlON )" and be adds that "rHIs
HAS BEEN DONE ALREADY BY THE PkE'
SENT ADMINISTRATION! -
It is not difficult to determine the
kind of man be is. His respect for the
Constitution is no more than for the
commouest piece Of school boy compo-
sitiou. He expresses the sentiment Of
the entire abolition party. Respect for
the Constitution and the laws Is no part
OF their religion. They openly declare
that it may be trampled under foot in
order to carry ont . given scheme
that is, in order to forward the ends of
abolitionism. The basis Of the white
mans government may be iguorned
and spurned with contempt when the
ultraist considers that it comes in con.
fict with what he conceives to be the
right Of the negro. Not only is this
declared, but tie author Of the above
language takes pride in declaring that
the President has already set the Con-
stitution at defiance, and thus peIjured
himself. They assume that this must
be done. They would csjole you with
the idea that the Constitution must be
destroyed in order to save it! This is
their excuse. The tissue that covers
the real intent is too miserably thin.
The best reply that we have seen for
Mr.. Julian's reasonable expression
comes from Senator Doolittle, conser-
vativc republican, and one who is not
to be hoodwinked and gagged by the
special admirers of the African race.
He said:
''1f Congress undertakes to tramplc
on the Constitution by usurping powers
not granted, it is as much rebellion As
the acts Of the discretionary States.
Ii the Federal Government can thus
usurp power, then the days of the Re.
public are past, and the days Of the En-
ptre begun"
TIA: IS calling things by their proper
raues. The man who has the temerity
80 declare that the Constitution has no
b;odiug force which he is bound to re-
spcc. 10 certain emergencies, is 10 fac,
a.ebsl agaias: it. He who would sd.
wise or in Any way connive for the dis.
regard Of any OF its provisions, is step
pias u the same tracks made By jeff
DAVIS and hi. followers. They assume
that it has GO binding force; the aboli
tionisss claim the same thing. Senator
Doolit,le is right. He enunciates The
doctrine Of the democratic party-ths
principles that must either stand ane
be respected, else the days Of the Re
public are indeed numbered, and thu
days of the Empire begun.
Where will you stand, intelligent
readers Is the platform of Jefferson
good enough for you! Are you in ia.
vor Of adopting the advice of Washing
ton when he warned the people to be.
ware how they trlAed in the least with
the provisions of the Constitution
Stand out from among all manner of ia.
natics, and declare for the Constitution
as 1t IS today. Stand up for it; work
for that idea, and see to it that it IS en-.
forced.
