A. LINCOLN, usurper of the United

dividing the State of Virginia, and gives
as a justification Of his act, the profound
reason that he is bound to take care of his

to nothing, when compared with his high.

the interests of his political friends. A

Thad. Stevens On the RAM
page.

The special Washington correspondence
oil the Commercial, gives the followinglin
regard to a little "aare up" in the House
day before yesterday
The debate in the House to-day, created
quite a sensation. Thad. Stevens boldly at
tackled the views Of the Kentucky delegation
aud thought the loyalty Of such was a ques.
ton of inference. Mr.. kerrigan sprang up
aud denounced Stevens as a rank accession
list, followed by loud cries Of Order. Ste
vens replied that he believed that kerrigan
was 10 order, because of the restraint which
had until lately been placed upon his liberty,
After order had been restored, debate was re-
sumed and Stevens then made the startling
announcement, in reply to a question, that he
believed States in rebellion were out Of the
Union and had no Constitutional Obligations.
1t is hard to say whether this position.
which Stevens defended, astonished most his
political friends or political enemies. Love
Joy, DIN and others denounced Stevens dec
l~aration, while many of the opposition mem
bers likened it unto secession.
