SUBSTITUTES = THE $500 Clause
There appears TO be no difficulty in Phila
delphia about procuring substitutes. They
are to be had at from 500 to 1915, and
rarely over $500. The fact seems to be DEM
onstrated that the $500 clause Of the Cen
scription Act has effectually killed the sub
stitute brokerage business, put limit to
prices. and saved poor men from the swim
ding abuses to which they were subjected
under the old system. The result of the
$500 Limitation IS directly opposite to that
predicted Of it by the copperheads, at least
in Philadelphia. and it viii probably hold
true of the country at large. II keeps down
the price Of substitution, and makes il pos
sible for men Of limited means, who are

The small 6bers of young trees, in order
20 grow and be effective, should be kept
moist from the moment they are taken up.
Tree planters usually allow them to be ex-
posed to the air for several hours, when they
become completely dried and of no subse,
quent value. If the trees are young and
vigorous, a new set of fbers is soon thrown
out, and the only detriment is little loss
of time; although the successful growth of
the tree would be more certainly insured by
retaining and carefully replacing all the small
fbers, in the new locality.

ARBITRARY ARRESTS.

On the 9Th of January, 1916, the late
Stephen A. Douglas made a speech on the
floor Of Congress concerning military ar
rests in time of war; the sentiments of which
are worthy of consideration The bill under
discussion was for the indemnity of General
Jackson. who was fined for making an arbi
trarv arrest while he was commander at New
Orleans He said, substantially:
1.-The necessity, and the glorious effects
resulting from the course which that neces-
sity prompted, were acknowledged by the
whole country, and he would even say by
the whole civilized world Then, as far as
this bill was concerned, he Mr.. D. cared
not whether their acts were legal or illegal.
If his acts were necessary to the defense of
the country, that necessity was above all
law.
General Jackson hazarded everything;
ne hazarded life and reputation on that
step, which might render him immortal if
it saved the country, or, on the contrary
make him ignominious and byword and
a reUroach; and the man that dared to do
that deserved the protection and the piaud-
its of his country. He did not envy the
feelings of that man that would get up and
talk calmly and coolly under such circum-
stances about rules Of court and technical
tiles of proceeding and the danger of exam
pie, while the city might be in flames and
the utmost barbarity might be committed.
What were rules of court but mere cob
webs, when they found an enemy with his
cannon at the doors of their courts, and
when they saw the flames encircing the
cupola? Talk then about rules of court
aud the formalty of proceedings The man
that would do that would fiddle while the
capitol was burning. (Sensation.) He envied
not any man the possession of such stoical
philosophy. Talk about illegality! Talk
about formalities
"Why, there was but one formality to be
observed, and that was the formality of d.
rectng the cannon, and destroying the en-
envy, regardless of the means, whether it be
/ by seizure of cotton bags, or the seizure oil

THAT RESOLUTION,

.We herewith present the Crittsuden
resolution introduced in the Democratic
.cauou., by a Union delegate, and which
caused he coppethe.ds to leave without
further ceremeny; as.s.,,,s,
ResolUed, That the present deplorable civil
war has been forced upon the country by the
disunioists of the Southern States, now in arms
against the constitutional government, and in
arms around the capital; that in this national
emergency Congress banishing all feelings of
passion or resentment, will rccollect only its
duty to the whole country that this war is not
waged on, their part in any spirit Of oppresslon,
Or interfering with the rights or institutions Of
those States, but to defend and maintain the
supremacy Of the constitution, and to preserve
tho Union, with oil the dignity, equality and
rights of the several States unimpaired; and
that is soon as these objects arc accomplished,
the war ought te cease
If nothing else were given, it ~ould re-
quire but comparison Of tho above reso-
luton with the mutilated portion which
appears in the first section of the Demo.
cratic platform, to convince all good citi-
zens Of the disloyal proclivities Of the ru.
ling members Of the Convention. ~.
It will be observed that the beginning
is entilel y suppressed comprising all that
reflected in any way on the revolutioaists
of the Southern States. The portion
thus left out was the salt that could alone
save the balance Of the resolution; fol
what remains Is merely Of a conciliatory
nature.
One will look in vain throughout the
whole platform for an expression to show
that the Del.ocracy of Minnesota, as rep
resented in. this Convention, think the
traitors in arms against the Government
ure guilty Of any wrong, OF for any Ell
dence that they wish to see vigorous
prosecution of the war to bring the rebel
lion to close.
