~ The Constitution must be made Of
gum elastic If it can stand all the twstings
and strains put upon it by Copperheaded poll
ticians. 1t is stretched to cover slavery and
to protectlrebelion; to Justify secession and
to make despotism more sacred than freedom !;
but it is found AS unyelding as cast iron when
il Is required TO discountenance rebellion and
to put stopper upon traitors. The Consttu-
ton allows the suspension of the habeds cor
pus act In cases OF invasion and rebellion, but
while Copperheads deny the President the
right to suspend it in such emergencies, they
also deny the right of Congress to authorize
him to do so. According to their authority,
Congress must remain in session the year
round or there may come times when, even TO
save the Union, the hdbeds corpus act cannot
be suspended. This is consoling doctrine
to rebels; and to those who, here at the North,
are counseling resistance to authority, and
suggesting the argument Of the bludgeon, the
revolver and the torch as fitting response to
the demands of ajaw Of Congress. But we
doubt IL an Intelligent people can be misled
by such bubbles. The truth is precisely
as we have before stated; with Copperheads
inetiiciency, In war measures, is the only sign
Of constitutionality; and to secure their APP
proyal, a measure must fall harmless upon
armed traitors at the South and their equally
guilty but more cowardly allies at the North.

yarmouth Erectr-of Course.

The election In Yarmouth came off on
Monday last, and the Argus chronicles the
event as follows:
YARMOUTH EREcT.-A DISPUTED QUEs-
TON SETTLED BY THE VoTERs.-We have a
letter from old Yarmouth, which district had
two claimants for one seat in the legislature
the Charcoal, of course, getting the seat
against right and justice-giving the result of
the election yesterday. and the rebuke admin
istered, as follows:
"Yarmouth's contested seat is decided by the
voters of the town. n. Gooche was elected mod
orator. Selectmen all democrats, with all the
town officers by thirty to ninety majority. The
Charcoals bid twenty-five dollars for votes.''
A gentleman from that town, who was
present at the meeting, and participated in its
proceedings, informs US that on the test votes
for Moderator and first Selectman the Copper
head majority was precisely tpenty-eight. Last
September the Copperhead majority claimed
to be sufficient to overcome the Republican
majority in North Yarmouth, which was forty
seoea- How much reason for Copperhead re-
joicing has been afforded by the great falling
Off we need not say.
II Mr.. Hewlett, in his speech at the City

convincing our Copperhead neighbor on Ex-
change street, tina. Rum and Rebellion" are
legitimalely connected, we are assured that
the most ample proof was afforded at Var
mouth that Rum and Rebellion were practi-
caily associated last Wednesday. The most
shameful use was made of the bottle argu-
ment, or our information is sadly at fault.
We are further assured, that even men who
wear good cloth, and hang out the outward
signals of responsibility, outraged all sense of
decency and proprety, insulting Republican
gentlemen, by proposing them for situations
deemed low and disreputable Ii is charitable
to believe the bottle had got the better of
their brans--to vndicate their honor at the
expense of their sobriety.
1t is not true, that Mr.. Gooch-the man
whom the Legislature, by nearly unanimous
vote, gave leave TO retire from his seat-was
elected Moderator. 1t was S. &. Blanchard
who was elected to preside. Mr.. Blanchard,
It Is said, by turns represents and is represent
ed by the Coppery fraternity of that town,
and would have actually presided at the meet
ing even had Gooch or any other Copperhead
been elected to the place.
