Several Of the measures and resolutions introduced
the present session of Congress bear their face the
conAic, intentions of limiting Of extending the
Executive authority The provisions of the Constitu-
ton in the main plain and clear. A liberal con-
struction-A little stretching beyond,-is insisted upon
on the side strict adherence to the letter of re-
strant IL jealousy demanded the other. The con-
situion OF the Executive Department infinitely the
most difficult part in creating present government
To give it such power as should make it usefUl with
such restraints that it sheud not become dangerous 10
make it efficient Independent and strong, yet prevent
its subverng everything BY itS union Of military and
civil power by Its influence Of patronage office and
favor waI not "a easy talk It il in the WAtcbfulness oil
Executive power aud the preservation of every restraint
and guard which the Constitution has provided that our
security lice Good motives should always be supposed
TO exist till the is ascerained Good intentions
may be the plea for the assumption of power but what
ever ourassurance OF their existence cannot justify it.
To guard against the dangers of good Intentions real
or pretended is the aim Of the Constitution. Yet shall
cmS-so fair, so plausible, and patriotic, whose objeo
Is alone the public good, meet with unresisIiug compl-
Ancei The extension of Executive authority f2ds no
advocate in the list of champions Of human freedom
Their uniform and steady purpose has been to limit and
restrain it. Popular aud representative right have ever
been at war against prerogatVe It's contest for 'geS
has been to liberty from the grasp Of Executive
power, All that could be gained from the mprudsncs
the weakness, the neceSies Of this power has been
gathered and boarded the very jewels of liberty Let
u, net disregard constitutional restraints for pretenceS
of public safety or high public interest. Limitations
and qualifications of authority and the just divisions of
political power the very essence of republican in'
situtions The separation of departments as far As
practicable, and the preservation OF clear lines OF
division bstWesn them, is the fundamental idea OF our
ConSti ion. Shall We attempt now to simplify the
necessary complications of our government which 's-

SUPPORTING PRISONERS OF WAR,

To ne Ed'tor Of ths Whtg:
Il has been frequently asserted to be without hisor-
cal precedent that prisoners of should be supported
by the Government from whose hands they were CAP
tured This is = mistake. The Emperor Napoleon re-
csived regularly from the British Government money to
pay for supplies to British prisoners in bis hands
was also actually made subject of complaint against
the French Government tina. 1t made 10 provision for
French prisoners in British hands. These facts are
folly detailed in Allison, Sd VOL Goth chap.
In the last chapsA volume it will be seen that
Prussia Austria Bavaria ana indeed every other power
except France sent supplies to their prisoners in the
hands of Russia, 7,
