H6The following is the Abolition theory
Of our Government:
1.-THE constitution and the laws shall be
suspended whenever it is accessory.
"Of that necessity the President shall be
the judge"
This is exactly the system of government
concocted by Russia. The general ukases.
or laws Of the land, are never suspended
except when the Emperor deems it neces-
sary. His will is. therefore, the supreme
law.

Ii is true this skeleton of Congress is a
legal and constitutional BODY; technically
SO; but wise statesman would beware
how he exercised power on a question of
such magnitude, when his title 10 do IN
rested on forms, not on substance.
We are now governed by faction which
is making haste 10 change the conditions
upon which the Union has existed M to
TINS time, by exercising power that is in
their hands by accident. Sucn acts of fac.
ton. OF course, the trainers Of the Copsti-
tuition did not expect. Indeed, when a
sense OF obligation becomes so weak that n
faction will do such deeds, and the peopIe
will not apply remedy. it marks q decline
of public virtue which cannot BE provided
against If it be foreseeu.
The representatives from the South de-
serted their posts it is their fault, il NAV
be said but that doesn't excuse the major.
Ity that remain. This Union belongs to al,
the States in all time to come, and the
crimes OF one generation cannot forfeit the
rights o! those to come after them. This
Abolition faction Know that these two acts
make radical changes and that they could
never pass Congress if the whole Union
were represented. Still these men profess
to desire restoration Of the Union no.
not restoration of the Union. They want

an eye on the programme at Washington,

The history of the past proves that the

In this couptry they have ever been distin-

has been engaged in foreign war they
have been amongst the foremost to volun-

and near that u. F. Under an eminent
orator. but somewhat given 10 wine, was
to address the people. Well, the hour ar.
rived. and small crowd of people assem-.
tled but the SPEAKER did not make his an
pearsnee. The result was, after waiting
patiently for considerable while.the crowd
dispersed without being addressed by any
body. Though Snapp. and Goodbue. and
Parks, and Norton and other distinguished
Republican speakers, were in tie vicinity,
no effort was made TO have them enlisht.n
the people.
1t is whispered about that the cause of
the non appearance Of Linder was, that he
bad imbibed too large a potion of stimu
lants. We really felt sorry for the Wild
Cat bank advocates and believers in negro
equality On Saturday evening. Their de-
jected countenances, as the truth fiss he'd
upon their minds that their great speaker
was non est incentRs, were truly pitiabIe.
The truth is the opponents of the new
constitution have up hill business Of it,
Their falsehoods are about played out, and
if the returns Of to days election do not
show that the people Of Illinois have had
enough Of banks and negroes. We shall
have less faith in their intelligence.
