The country will learn with a feeling on

World that a part oil the order having been
revoked, he (Blrnsidel had revoked the
whole, and that no further restnint would
be placed on the Gil culation of that paper
Ia his department.
This Is triumph for law and order over
despouc authority that speaks sell for the
splrit OF the people, and augurs well for
the future. The men in authority ut
Washington have walked rough.shod over
the provisions Of the Constitution aud
the rights Of tho people with so little res
Hponse from the country that they, seem
TO have supposed that anything hey or
their satraps saw fit 10 do would be silent>
ly acquiesced in. They appear TO have
discovered their mistake. The unpard on.
able outrage against the cause o; liberty,
in the person of Mr.. Vallandigham, had
thoroughly aroused the whole country TO
the dangerous course of the Administra,
ton, and the impudent order of Gen.
Burnside to suppress n public journal,
and exclude another from his department,

course adopted in some quarters, that It
seems like the enunciation of o new Dec.

may. The course adopted by the Admin.
lstratlon at the West is calculated 10 bring
about revolution, and some trifiing occurs
renee might at any moment light up the
hres OF a cofict that would sweep over
the whole country. Nothing but the ira
aitlonaI respect for law, so deeply instilled
INTO theh hearts of the American people,
has prevented an outbreak but the Adj
mlnisIratlon has been reversing the edu
cation Of the people, by holding up before
their eyes an example of reckless disre-

men at Washington to pausel The people
love peace, and dread anarchy. but will
not submit TO an u~nreasoning and erratic
despotism, conducted in the interest Of
partisan malice and personal ambition
and the sooner the President and his adj
visers are made aware of the fact, the
better for all concerned. Let Mr.. Lincoln
obey the law and respect the provisions
OF the Constitution, and all viii go along
quietly and peacefully. But If he and his
agents attempt 10 crush out the Unborn
right of American freemen to canvass the
acts of their public servants, and TO con-
denim where condemnation is deserved, it
is easy TO see what will be the result. As
long rs Mr.. Lincoln supports the Governs

organized it, he will find the people ready
TO support him when he attempts 10 set
up his own person as he Government-to
assume unlimited power, and ignore the
coordinate branches of the Government,
he will have taken a step toward n forma.
ton of parties never seen in America

hear no more OF the Rascalls and Buru>
sides, except in the line Of their duty
