Public order.

1t is remarkable that whenever a European
ruler undertakes 70 put his foot a little heavier
on the necks of the people. he always does it in
the name and Oh the pretense of securing public
order" Ii was on this tyrants' plea that the holy
Alliance united to suppress the rising spirit OF
liberty in Europe. The following item of foreign
news tells its own story:
1.-THE Emperor of Austria has addressed an
autograph letter to the Chancellor Of Hungary,
saying that the disloYalty in the Hungarian
municipalities menaced the public order in such
a dangerous manner that the public duty requires
the raising of strong barriers against such ex-
cesses; that as the cOnvocatiOn of the Hungarian
Dict in q constitutional manner appears impracti-
cable until order is re established. all the existing
authorities in the districts and communities are
abolished, and The Chancellor ordered to elect
persons TO replace them, and to take care that the
administration of public affairs suffers no inter-
ruption Al persons charged Icifh erimes against
the public safety shall be tried By military tribunals.
In conclusion. the Emperor expresses the earnest
wish for the establishment of public order, ana
the future maintenance OF the concessions he has
granted Hungary"
We leave the reader TO run the parallel be-
tween this Austrian rule snd that of "ihe party
of iree3om" in this couniry.5Delroit Free

The Republican War I'm wayne
County.

There is a big fight in progress between the
Mortonites aud The Julianites in Wayne county.
The following article from the Centreville True
Republican, the Julianite organ. will give some
idea of the character of the war:
The two short horn Holloway organs at Rich
mond, the Palladium and Telegram, take great
exception to the paragraph from the Connersville
Union, copied into our paper two weeks ago,
which states that the Concressional committee
found that Mr.. Holloway chad been the means
of swiudling the Government odt of a large sum
of money!" and that their report shows the fact.
The short horn organs say this cannot be, because
the same committee say they are not satisfied
that Holloway intended the swindle. Neverthe.
less 10 were easy 10 demonstrate that the Unions
statement was strictly true, Irrespective of the
intention of the guilty party. The sole question
is as to the fact whether the Government was
swindled as alleged. The report of the commit.
tee shows that IL was-that over thirty eight
thousand FIVE hundred dollars was lost to the
Government by Holloway's misconduct and NAL
administration The committee. of course. could
not Judge oe the intentions Of the guilty party,
except as his acts revealed them, and leaned to
the side of mercy. But W n any sensible man
saw that the loss was any the less a swihdle upon
the Government? or can he escape the obvious
conclusion that Holloway vas the means. whether
intentional or unir'cruonal, of consammatiDg
this swindlef
The richest part of the Palladium's defense"
of Holloway is the plea that if the report of the
committee is to be understood ms it reads. or as
finding him guilty. the President would "immedi-
ately dismiss him in disgrace from the Patent
Office" We think he ought to do SO: but he has
not done it-and what does that prove? Simply
that he is the same good. easy man who suffered
himself to be imposed on in the appointment of
such men ms Simon Cameron, d. P. Holloway.
&c and being honest himself. he is slow to re-
cognize the knavery or incapacity of his appoint
ees. and has thus chung to some of them as he
did, for instance. 10 Gen Mcclellan. with a long
suffering faith, shared in by hardly anybody else.
That Is our explanation of his forbcarance with
such men as Holloway. and we think it is a much
more satisfactory one than that Of the Palladium.

restoration of the Union and
the Tiggcrhead and COPperhcad
Press.

EresS.
The radical and copperhead journals of this
city are making a great fuss about the mode,
manner and conditions of the restoration of the
Union at the end of the war, and they are specu-
lating whether the army now being raised by the
draft Will be sufficient for the purpose. They
might as well save themselves the trouble When
the military power OF the rebels is completely
desiroyed--as il soon will be-there will be no
longer any question at issue. The insurgent
States, by virtue of the Constitution, whose
authority is above that of Congress aud the
President, become Internationally States of the
Union again; md they have only 10 send their
Senators 20 the Senate Chamber and their Rep
resentatives to the other hall of Congress, and no
power eau keep them out. IL needs no proceed
ing of Congress. no act of amnesty, no proclams
ton of the President, to give validity to the res
toratiOn OF The Southern States To their legal and
constitutional status in Congress. Nor has Con-
gress or the President any power to interfere
after the close of h~ostilities with any of the
domestic institutions or municipal laws OF the
South
The contscatiOn act and emancipation act are
null and void by their unconstitutiOnality, and
the only emancipation which can hare any effect
is that which has taken place by the acts of the
Generals within the liues of the army. All out
side is legally untouched bv the Presidents proc
lamation, which is, as he himself described il,
only like the Pope's bull against the comet. The
war being over. military lines cease to exist, and
every State right and institution revives by the
force of the Constitution. This was the plat
form laid down by Congress in its declaratory
resolution in the extra session, proclaiming the
fundamental law OF the land; ami all parties may
as well make up their minds at once that this
constitutional principle will prevail over all
etotchets aud Revolutionary ideas. The people
are determined 60 have it so, and that settles the
matter, as AL the world viii find out by the re
suit of the next presidential election.-lNew

rhe s.emocracY of na.ne,

The following is an extract from the letter of
the Hon. B. BRApsrRY to the Democratic STATE
Convention of Maine, which nominated him for
Governor:
But opposition to the present war policy and
war measures of the Administrations is not op-
position to the Government. The Adm;nistra-
ton is not tie Government. Those in authOri-
ty are tut the agents of the people to carry on
the Government under the Constitution. They
may exceed or prevent their constitutional pow
ers--they may destroy the Constitution Itself.
Under such circumstances, TO oppose the Ad-
miri>tration is to support the Government.
To uphold the Government, to maintain the
Constitution. to restore the Union "a il was-is
the first duty OF every citizen. To fail in the
duty is to be false 20 ourselves, to posterity and
to the great cause of constitutional liberty. and
IL is equally a duty to protest against a policy
calculated to prolong the war and subvert the
Constitution. Very truly yours,

General S J. ANDERSON.

c- We see now what Governor Andrew of
Massachusetts meant when he said that the PEG
pie of that State in a certain contingency would
'.swarm the highways" in response t. the call of
the Government. He anticipated that the call
would be in the shape of a draft. that there would
be a $500 exemption clause and exemption for
physical disability. and his idea was that the
people would swarm the highways toward the
Collectors Office to pay their $500 and toward
the Surgeons Office to obtain certificates of.
physical iufrmity. This certainly must be what
he meant. for such has turned out 10 be the fact.

example of all the other bounties-that of Berk

English View of the Struggle.

The struggle in America has undoubtedly en-
tered upon a very critical period The North
has certainly gained successes which might check
the energies of Ia people not thoroughly determin
ed to fight to the last. The possession of the
Mississippi for the time so completely that a yes
sci has been able, at least for once, to pass down
il from St Louis TO New Orleans entirely unmo-
Tested, is no doubt in itself a great achievement,
and may have important political Effects on the
attitude of the great States of the Northwest.
But this achievement is obviously still more i'm
portant in The effects it probably will have on the
campaigns in the Southwest.
From all these considerations it can rot be
doubted that the South may have to meet an Or
gained invasion on the largest scale into the
heart of the Southern States, from Tennessee on
the north. Mississippi on the west. and perhaps
Mobile or the Gulfcoast on the south It does not
appear at TIE present that they have the means of
successfully resisting such an advance. Ii is ac-
knowledged by Southern journals that the force
under Johnston will not be able to check the ad-
vance of Gen. Grant. and that it is probable that
be will be able TO effect a junction with Rose
Grams The result OF such a movement. as the
Southern journal confesses, would be the estab-
lishment of an army of 100. 900 men on the soil
Of Alabama or Georgia: and if they could retain
such a position. IL is felt that inieriority in the
field would be the least of the consequent disas-
tiers TO the South. Even if no battles we're fought
such a force would ravage the whole country and
destroy the crops, and while the blockade is kept
up the South can not import sufficient grain for
its necessities. 1t is clear that the Southern
journals themselves feel that if such a combined
force as we have indicated bv the forces OF Gen.
erals Banks. Grant and Rosecrans can be made,
it would drive the Conlederacy to great extremi.
ties.
But the same journals which made these adj
missions show no signs of ~faltering in a determi-
nation to continue the struggle to the last.
