Judge Grier Of the U. S. Supreme Court has
rendered decision which, it is understood.
foreshadowsa unanimous opinion ofthis "high-
esttribupal ofour country" that the Presidents
Pr ,clamation of Emancipation and the Confs-
ca ,on Law are constitutional and valid; not
on'y so, but practical and salutary. The right
ct the President to copfscate any and ell prop
erty in time Of war, is admitted as corolary.
The matter as to whether the rebels are alien
enemies and subject TO the constitutional PEN
alties, is set 10 rest at once, BY saying they are
enemias Of king tbs worst, and liable to the
highest penalties known to the Constitution
In the same decision the distinction sought 10
be made between the Administration and the
Government, is set to rest At ol.ce, by saying
that all constitutional acts of the Administra-
lion are acts of the Government, to oppose
which by force, is treason, and that in times OF
extreme hazard during war, the Government:
may order seizure and punishment for aiding,
counseIing or advocating treascRab!e persons or
conduct. Judge Grier has been looked upon
as a shaky one, like fancy, but this clears him
of doubtful imputation. The case grew out OF
some payaI seizure. In his charge he defines
war to be 9that state in WHICH nation prose-
cptes its rights by force" after which he treats
the several ya'landigham inventions as so much
chat.

! The Richmond papers of the 20th con
tain the following. Southern editorials
are devoted t. news from the Mississippi
and are very Responding in their tone.
The Sentinel Of the 10Th says, it is re-
ported that the Confederate authorities
have determined to detail one Federal Cap
tain and one Lieutenant with the view OF
retaliating in kind for the hanging of Con-
federate officers in the West by order OF
Gen. Burnside.
A Brandon, Miss, dispatch of thes17th
to rebel papers says that two gentlemen
rode to jackson to-day and trayersed the
city, which the enemy evacuated at 2
O'clock, it is supposed to the number Of
10000. They retreated towards Vicks-
burg.
Firing was heard in that direction and
it is supposed that Pemberton is in the
rear
They burned the Confederate House, de-
pot, penitentiary, two factories, the foundry
block of buildings, medical, surgeons and
other offices. Several miles of the rail-
ROAD track was destroyed, and both bridges
over Pearl river.
The rebel papers confirm Mobile des
patches Of the 18th. stating that specials
reported to the Ad0ertiSer from jackson
on the 18th, says the Catholic church was
destroyed and the 4NtsSissippian printing
office Quilted the type and presses were
thrown into The street and river; and three
hundred niggers joined the Yankees.
Farmers estimate the damage done by
Federals fires at tea millions of dollars
Much suffering prevails.
The last of the Federal reaFguard left
about 2 o'clock, when the rebel cavalry
dashed in killing one Federal Colonel aud
capturing two Others.
The Yankees captured and paroIed 200
South Carolin'ans and Georgians.
A dispatch from Gen. oohnston to the
rebel War Office, dated at BrunsvilIe on
the 18th, saws that Pemberton was attack
ed on the morning OF the 18th, near Ed
wards Depot. After nine hours fighting
he was compelled to fall back behind the
Big Black river.
A Jackson dispatch of the 18th says:
There was a heavy and indecisive battle
near Edwards Depot Saturday. We fell
back to our entertainments. Gen. Tighl-
har was killed.
The Federals sent flag Of truce on the
18th for surgeons. The officer in charge
of the flag saws the Fe,lerals lost 5000
men and took sixteen guns.
The rebel troops fell back across the
Big Black river, destroying the bridge.
They advanced eight miles northeast on
the morning of the 18th and found john

Indiana Trontles.

There was State mass convention Of
Copperheads at Indianapolis on Wednes-
day last, called to synlpathize with Val
landighaif and others who have been sent
South as rebel sympathizers. The meet
ing was large of course, $4,000 to 10000.
though the union men also assembled in
large numbers and came near voting down
their resolutions. The meeting ended 10
uproar. Their resolutions profess as usual
strong fidelity TO the constitution-with
just such constructions Of its meaning as
the rebels agree to. They denounce oil
that has been done in the war against the
rebels, but don't denounee any act Of the
rebels. They denounce arbitrary arrests,
military usurpations and the war ofsubju-
cation. They denornce the CONSUMPTION
act, Proclamation of Emancipation, arm
ing the negroes and the public debt and
revenue laws.

GOVERNMENT BoNDs.-There is brisk
stir among money holders to invest their
surplus funds in Government fve-twenty
Bonds. Persons having two, three or
five hundred dollars to let cannot possibly
DO any better with their money than to SO
use L. We believe N. Corwith at Galena
is an agent of Gov eminent to dispose of
these bonds, and will make no charge for
trouble. They draw six per cent. interest
in gold, payable every six months, run 20
years. unless Government chooses 10 re-
Dean them aooner; such securities are not
to be taxed, and will always sell for what
they cost. The privilege of purchasing
them ceases the first of July next. E,
Bayley, Platteville, Richard Meyer and ].
A. Barber of Lancaster have already in
vested their surplus in such securities;
when such men can do no better with
money we rather guess it will be hard for
others to do any better--for they hold aud

eratiag the machine that are known in
the whole scope Of invention. PERSONS de-
sirous ofingestihg money in five twenties
may transact their business Through E.
Bayley, j. A. Barber or with US and soon

CHINca BUG.-We do not bear that
these annoying insects have commenced
their ravagas; perhaps the tare ground
and bard freeze Of last winter laid them by,
though we doubt it. A late Insectarian
affiSms that "each race of swarming insects
bsgets its cannibal to devour its parent
kind,"-which, being translated from poe
try into tolerable English, means that
when any race Of beings becomes exceed
ing numerous, therefore wicked and de-
serving of extifpation, there arises in the
family some Napoleonic-Jeff. Davistic-
Cyrushorsehy who proceeds to bis work.
The rule certainly holds good with the
weeyil and other destructive insects we read
OF, and which at lines appeared with q
destiny to deyour the substance of CONT
nents. ahe rule of the poet that "each
race begets It's cannibal," DC, is certainly
true 10 respect to the human species; and
as nature Is uniform in her System Of pro-
duction, degradation and means Of des-
trne,ion we must infer that the chinch bug
family must SO follow 10 the track Of all
rs,in,al creation and SO 10 eternal smash.
The chinch bugs have now had more than
y seven year run, we guess in Grant Conp-
IT, over ten year existence, which is more
than the Mosaic allowance TO any insect
lest except Pharsoah's locusts. So far as
known the .chinch bug made its first APP
peararce on MFR. Rays farm il Smelser In
tie year 50. Since that year their bounds
have widened TO great part Of Wisconsin,
iowa and Illinois and in parts Of the coun-
tsy nothing has f'gted ppon laoa Lat the
