Drifting from the Landmarks.

While we have an arlnory of six hundred
thousand men in the field to preserve the liber-
ty and unity of this country. there is no little
danger that The foundations Of civil liberty may
be undermined and impaired by the very-means
ossensi5ly used for ITS preservation. Assaults
upon individual rights, which in less perilous
times would have agitated the whole nation,
have excited little more attention than the ar
res; oil drunken vagrant upon any OF our crow
ded thoroughfares. The boasted bulwa.ks OF
freedom, that cost ages of patient toll and suf
fering to@erect, have been battered down by the
graceful wave of a hand, and outrages upon in
dividnal rights, similar in principle to those that
cost Charles bis head, occasion scarcely per-
cepiible shudder among a people who boast to
be tha freest on earth. When the trainers of
our Constitution defined and carefully limited
powers OF the Government, they imagined that
they had constructed barriers against arbitrary
power too strong TO be broken, SO long al least
as the people renamed worthy Of the liberty
hequeathed tothem. They adopted evety pre-
caution that human foresight could devise TO Sc
cure 10 their descendants government free from
those arbitrary and oppressive features 1nder
which they saw other nations groanIng and suf-
ferng. Were the Fathers of the Republic wrong
when they prohibited arbitrary arrests and i'm
prisonments, unreasonable searches and seizures,
secured to every man the right of speedy trial
by jury, and made the haoeas corpus wT OF
rght9 Were they right in all this, or are those
who presume 20 act as if these guarantees had
no existence, rights The question is not mere
abstraction, but one that comes home to every
scitizen. II is question OF personal lioerty. If
the Constitution has ceased to become the SUI
pretne law of the land, and is no longer binding
oeon our rulers, we are living under an eXper-
iiHentd' guvrtuHIrut- we are peop!e without
law subjects, moi citizens and our future his
tory will be that of Nation that lost ITS free
dom without struggle.
A people who are unable or unwilling to pro-
tect their own clearly established rights from
invasion, may exert the physical power neces-
safy to subdue rebellion, and IN the end lose all
they are fighting fora free constitutional Gov
erRnent While suptemeiy occupied with the
armed hosts arrayed against the Constitution,
the sa2pers and miners may be quietly progress
sing with the work oil destruction, until in the
end victory is little better than defeat.

DAVIS.--In Camp Perpoint, on Tuesday
the 25th ult., OF Inflammation of the brain, pri-
vate ISAIAH M. DAVIS of Co. T. 9Th p. R.,
aged about 26 years.
MIR. Isaiah M. Davis, was known by large
number of friends in and around Brookvle and
only known 10 be loved and respected. He was
one of those rare exceptions found in mankind
who devoted his attention to his own affairs, thus
laying the foundation for long and permanent
acquaintance. HIS respected and aged parents
who reside in. Bedford County, Pa, few short
months since had to mourn the loss of younger
brother David of a disposition the same as he
we are now called upon to lament. But The
grave is inexorable and we are each moment,
hour and day, nearing the slen, recesses of the
tomb But it is only a step, short spasmodic
effort, and mortality is changed to Immortality.
He is gone. The man, the SOLDIER and the Pa
TRIor is no more, death has laid its cold clammy
hand upon our friend and taken him from earth
to the eternal camping ground above, and he is
now under The command OF the great King Of
Kings and Lord of Lords
While we deeply sympa;hse with the be-
reaved parents and the numerous friends of the
deceased and while we mourn the ifreparabe
loss By bis early demise, we recognize in our
affection the hand OF Omnipotence, and bow
submissvey TO His mandates and that not ours
but "rhy will be done o Lord.' Let us, bis fel-
low soldiers, who are LEFT behind, try TO emulate
his character and by so doing we have the as
surance that we will bel true soldiers, good ct-
lzens and exemplary christians Peace to h,s
ashes. J. PM,

the Republican PAPERS console themselves with
The reelection that il corruption has occurred

how this mtigates the enormity ofthe frauds
perpetrated by the chosen agents of the Gov

squandeEing the public money at time when
above all others It's disbursement should have
been jealously guarded. In the case of Mr..
CUMMINGS, every opportunity was offered for
the preparation Of fraud. IF the object had
been TO squander the public isnds, no better

that fraud was expected and intended. And
tbsis not an isolated case, for il seems that the
same loose system extended throughout all Gov
emmett transactions. A multitude of.ha-ples
fastened their fangs upon the Treasury because
The opportunity of plunder was literally thrust
upon nthem. 1.-The Republican party wish 10
clear their skirtsot the responsibility for squan-
derng millions OF the public money, they should
not merely expose the guilty, but repudiate and
punish them, whether they occupy high
or low places. This thing of exposing enor-
NOUS pecuations and then covering the au-
thors and agents with thin coating 0 { pol
itical whitewash, only excItes derision and en-
courages future frauds.
The Republican party made great profess
sions OF economy when 1t WAS before the coun-
try suppl!ant for popular favor, and must
stand accountable for the falsifcation Of its
promises. Read the following resolution of the

TERRIBLE STAMPEDE OF THE HORSES.
AccIDEnTs, Ero., ETC.
At Z o'clock tonight fire broke out in he
Government stables, near the War Department,
where. they had about 1900 horses, and harnss
for most of them. The stables consisted of en
separate sheds, 80 feet wide, and about 600 fei
long, in each of which were some two hunaed
horses, and so rapidly did the fire spread, ina It
was impossible 10 save all the horses.
A large number of men were soon on he
ground, and commenced libersting the horss.
Many OF them refused to leave the burning
sheds, and some rushed back, and plunging ito
the flames, laid down to die. Those reeasd
gathered in droveS and golloped irantically al
over the city.
The cries of those who were burning up IS
the FIRE reached them, we're the most piteois
we ever teard, resembling those of human h.
neS. or The ten, six were entirely consumed.
The timely arrival of Captain Dudley, witt a
battalion OF regulars, ant lieutenant MARKw.
with detachment of the Second and Third
Infantry, who SET to work, and with the aid ,f
citizens aud teamsters, tore down fcur OF tie
stables.
No axes were to be had, and the half dozen
fire engines dragged to the scene, were usleess ftr
want Oh water and capacity. There were abost
five hundred good draught horses burned aid
about Ten or twelve hundred sets of barnes.
Bit little forage was lost, as they only haveit
ground as it is used. All the stables are tohl
loss. The horses were good ones and had been
broke into hauling heavy wagons.

people were aroused. One good steam fire en-
gine could have saved seventy five thousand
dollars to the Government if it had reached
there twenty five minutes after the fire broke
out. $685.
A House and barn in the rear tue stable were
also consumed, large brick house close oy had
all the fine furniture carried out and DESTROYED
by the rough usage, but the house was unlnjursd
the people saving It with buckets of water c;r-
ried from wells close by.
The deInollshing of some sheds preveni;nr
the fire from spreading, and the wind being verv
low, is all that saved the fire from spreading
several squares down to The Potomac. The lass
is estimated, by persons competent to Judge. at
over one hundred thousand dollars.
The stampede of horses rushing through The
crowds and around the corners caused manv
serious accidents, and we hear of one man re-.
ported killed, who fell down while crossing The
street, near The National Hotel, and was. tram
PIED upon by them. Most Of the hotsessAe,e.
have hann caught. Az the late t,r,,r ~ ,Ss,
the fire sail out. and nothing remains but lonr
rows OF charred horses and piles of cinders.
