All In the Family.Wry:

My banks are furnished with rags.
So thick, even "Salmon" cant thin 'em
I've torn up my old money bags,
Having little or naught to put in 'em.
My tradesmen are smashing by dozens,
But this is all nothing, they say
For bankrupts, since Adam, are Cousins
So, it's all in the family way.
Ny Debt ot penny takes from me,
AS sages the matter explain;
Bob owesit to Tom, and then Tommy
Just owes it to Bob back again.
Since all have thus taken to oweing,
There's nobody left that can pay;
And this il the way to keep going
All quite in the family way.
Ny Senators vote away millions,
To put in Posterity's budget
And though it were billions or trillions,
The generous rogues wouldn't grudge it.
rTis all but family hop,
twas Chase began dancing the hayi
Hands round why the deuce should We stop
'Tis sll in the family way.
Ny laborers used to eat mutton,:
As any great man of the State ioesI
And now tue poor devils are put on
Small rations of tea and potatoes.
But cheer up, "Puke, ,""Bucksye" and Padd,
"old Abe" is your father they says
So even if you starve for your Daddy,
"Tis all in the family way.
My rich ''agriculturists" tumble,
Ny poor ones have nothiLg g to ch ew;
And, even if themselves do not grumble,
Their stom achs undoubtedly do.
But coolly 20 fast EN- FAMILLE,
Is as good for the soul as to pray;
And famine itself is genteel,
When one starves in family way.

A Secretion next Budget day;
Though, perhaps, he may know it already,
As no too, is a sage in his way.

Take an instances The Constitution pro

Take an instances The Constitution pro-
vdes, in one Of the very clauses quoted by
the Advertiser, that all trials for crime "shall
be held in the state where said crimes shall
have been committed" Regarding even this
provision, the editor of the ADVERTISER TO
quote his own words, dis against everybody
who, under any pretcxt whatever" shall at
tempt to even Suspend" its operation, and
he is lor state rights in the largest sense where
federal rights are not clearly granted" If
JEFF. Davis could be arrested in Portland for
crimes committed against the government at
Richmond, or could Toombs be arrested in
Washington for crimes committed in Charles
ton, they must not be held to trial where
taken, but they must be returned to the States
where their offences were committed, there to
be tried by jury, although not judicial court
exists in either State that is not stepped In
treason, and scarcely twelve men could he
found to constitute jury who would not be
found in armed rebellion against the govern
ment! In 1905, when Gen. Wilkinson, the
military commandant at New Orleans, arrested
the conlcderates of Aaron Burr, for reasons to
his own mind sufficient he sent them TO Wash
ington for trial, and though the act was d.
rectly in the face of the letter Of the Consti-
tuition, President Jefferson approved and
justified his act.
Similar reasons for like departures from the
letter Of the Constitution may again exist, and
call for similar assumptions of power. And
here, without celebrating the idea, we will
simply remark, that it is one thing to usurp
powers not found in the Constitution, for the
purpose of subverting that sacred Instrument,
but very different thing TO assume powers,
where the Constitution may happen to be ST.
lent, for no evil or sinister purpose, but simply
to repel invasion and to preserve, protect and
defend the temple Of liberty, which has been
erected at so much cost, and whose founda-
tons were cemented by the best blood of our
fathers. One of these acts would be that of
riotism. To show that this is no novel idea,
we quote from Thomas Jefferson to j. B. Col
win, Sept. 20. 1910, as follows:
The question you propose, whether circum-
stances do not sometimes occur, which make
it "a duty in officers OF high trust, to assume
authorities beyond the law, is easy of solution
in principle, but sometimes embarrassing in
practice. A strict observance OF the written
laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a
good citizen; but it is not the highest. The
laws of necessity. of selcpreservation, Of saw
ing our country when in danger, are of higher
obligation. To lose our country by scrupu-
Ions adherence To written law, would be to lose
the law itself, with life, liberty, property, and
all those who are enjoying them with US; thus
absurdly sacrificing the end TO the means.

SKIRMISHER
For the Press

II there is lap we cannot comprehend what
justice there is in the action of the Board of
Aldermen in allo,oing certain claims for in
juries received by citizens in consequence Of
the neglect of the proper authorities to enforce
the ordinances of the city, and rejecting the
claim of another citizen who was injured in
consequence Of the same neglect. For in
stance-one man is injured by slipping on the
ice, because the proper authorities neglected
to have said ice removed, and is allowed 500
damages. Another is run over on the side
walk. and severely injured, by an engine be-
longing to the city, running on said walk in
violation of law, and the Aldermen allow the
petitioner leave to withdraw privilege he
possessed before. A third is injured by der
rick, also belonging to the city, and the Alder
men vote him $3.50 damages. We do think
that no jury could be found in the country
that would call such doings either law or JUS
tiee.
If this question is not properly settled it
should be carried to higher Court. We trust.
however, that the Aldermen, at full board,
will yet do justice to all concerned -

RATIFICATION MEETING. - Monday, at 2
o'clock, Faneuil Hall was crowded to its full
est extent, to respond to the Presidents Eman-
cipation Proclamation. Some disappointment
was experienced at the non-appearance of
Gen. Busteed, who was expected to be present.
The great speech of the occasion was by Hon.
Charles sum ner, which was published in full in
the evening edition of the Journal and Trav-
eler. The Journalsays the speech was char
acterized by his usual argumentative force,
and oratorical merit. 1t is needless to say that
it was delivered with graceful power, amid
few dissenting demonstrations-of its hearers.
