Questions for the People to Consider.

Is it suppesable, that those who made the
Constitution, intended that it should be vic.
lated as often as a President might make
pretext Of necessity to violate it?
OF what use is Constitution, limiting the
power of rulers, if those rnlers may suspend
it when they please? Can any one tellP
Of what value is Constitution protecting
the rights and liberties of the people, if
rulers may violate it at will?
When Lincoln, Seward and the rest, swore
with uplifted hand, in the presence of AL
mighty God to protect and defend the Con-
stitution, did the recording angel, who
registered the oath in Heaven, write: "The
meaning of this oath is that these men are
to viola :e the Constitution whenever they
consider it necessaryr'
What is the difference between the Gov
errment of Russia, which has no Constitu-
ton, and that of the United States, if our
written Constitution may be violated at
pleasure? None. The President does what
ever he deems necessary, and the Autocrat
does no more: We have already adopted
the Russian system of Consumption and
exile; shall we not have the knout also?
No wonder Alexander sent to Tod for a copy
of our laws.-Logan CO., Gazette.

The State Election.


r. We hEve - yet but few returns, but
enough to indicate the election ofthe whole
ticket of the War Party. The number Of
votes cast is small. Very few Dem ocrats In
this county attended the polls and so 1t
seems was the case in some other counties.
It was undetermined thing to disfranchise
them fn effect and to overawe and intimidate
them by the bayonet. This was substantial
ly announced by Col. Gilbert when he broke
up the Dem ocratic Convention, under the
eyes Of the Governor and Legislature last
February. This willing tool of military
despotism then announced that the Demo-
Gratis should not nominate candidates, or If
nominated should not be voted for, or if
elected they should not serve. And &C
cordingly, on the approach of the election,
Burnside and his subordinates issued their
orders, intended to carry the elections by
military influences. and they achieved the
object. When we get fuller returns and
facts, we shall have much more to say in
regard to this election, which, il all time to
come. will be branded by the honest his
torian as illegal, fraudulent and tyraDnical.

protection to her citizens of whatever class,

duly organized as soldiers in the public SER
vice. The law of nations and the usages
and customs of war, as carried on by civil

public enemies.
To sell or enslave any captured person on
account of his color, and for no offeuse
against the laws of war. Is relapse into bar
barism, and crime against the civilization
of the age. The Government of the United
States will give some protection to all its
soldiers, and if the enemy shall sell or on
slave any one because of his color, the of
Tense shall be punished by retaliation upon
the enemy's prisoners in our possession. 1t
is therefore ordered that for every soldier of
the United States killed in violation of the
laws of war, a rebel soldier shall be executed,
and for every one enslaved by the enemy or
sold into slavery, a rebel soldier shall be
placed at hard labor on the public works.
and continued at such labor until the other
shall be released, and receive the treatm emit
due to prisoner of war. Signed,

Gen. Gorman, the present commander here,
keeps tho guerillas In this vicinity stirred up
well by frequente1peditions, but thus far they
hare not only managed to elude our forces
but have made several successful dashes on
our pickets. Tho cavalry at this post is made
up Of splendid material, but has become
much dcmoralIzed from the use It has been
put to, escorting cotton buyers and doing
picket buty On roads constantly Travelled bY

headquarters permitting them to pass at
all times. At the dash on our chain
Of the rebels were -recognized 'as
persons Who. had passed the sans guard
only the evening before with the fneTitah1e
pass from headquarters. When Gen. German
came here, guards to keep off our fora9ine
parties were stationed at the houses Of the
wealthy citizens for twelve miles ont, and at
the houses Of some those who were the most
blatant 6ecessionists, such as Craig and Tur-
ner, the guards were from the body guard Of
the General commanding. This has now been
corrected. One thing TINT was regarded bv
the army as commcndable, or at lenst. uneS-
ccptl0nable in Gen. Curtis. was his granting
Tree papers to those negroes TINT had been
employed in the rebel service with the con
sent ot their o6ners. As the fortificatIon8 at
Forts Pillow md Randolph were mainly con-
structed By slaves from this point, Gen, Curtis
hid great work on his hands. aud over q
thousand slaves were manumitted, many Of
whom had families. When Gen. Curtis left
here, q policy waa adopted Of returning the
negroes to the masters, and not even except
Ing those who had been freed by Gen. Curtis,
Zen. Carr put stop to this during his brief
command, and also assured Gen. Holmes, who
impudently demanded if We were arming nc
groes--a thing which he was then doing him
sel-that whatever the orders Of the Presi-
dent were, he should obey them; but when
t he last change Was made here, the old pro-
slavery rule was again in full sway, and every
citizen within twenty miles, unless he was a
poor man, had q safeguard for his property
