1OS. {. l. NALLANDlGHAM.-Th proceed
ings of the drum head court.martial, or mock
cry of trial, by which this distinguished gentle
man was condemned and expatriated, has been
published. There was not particle of proof
that he had uttered a word of reasonable Ian
guage-if words were treasonble-or that he
had endeavored to incite the people to acts of
violence and revolution: but, on the contrary,
that he had appealed to and couuseled them
TO protect their rights and redress their griev-
ances by the peaceful but powerful remedy of
the ballot box. The fiat had gone forth how
ever, that Vallandi CHAM must be inundated,
and court of subservient officers. who dared
not refuse to obey the wishes or orders of their
superiors, faithfully carried out the programme,
Never was there more gross and damnable
outrage committed against the rights of an
American citizen, than has been witnessed in
this affair. There was a day, when to be an
American citizen, as in the purer days Of the
Roman Republic, was boast and q guarantee
for his rights; but that day was prior to the
advent of the present Administration. Wheth-
er it will ever dawn upon them again, is a
question which they themselves can alone de-
ermine.

ABOLITION QUARRELs.-The quarrel among
the aspirants for Office in the Abolition ranks
and their name is egion-commenced in the

likely to extend throughout the several coun

assemble. The "mutton- heads" and "theves," p"
as they mutually call each other-quite appro-
PIRATE terms, by the way-are wrought up to
the highest pitch of excitement and phrenzy
and handy epithets between themselves qui'e
as delicate and euphonious as those which
they employ against the Democrats. 1t is an
