The language of the Constitution on the sus-

lows:
Art. I, Sec X, Clause ? The privilege of
the writ Of habeas corpus shall not De suspen-

1t will be seen that in this case the Constitu-

iers the power of suspension directly upon nei-

A great outcry j. just now being raised
throughout tn State over the removal Of DR..
Tappan from the Presidency Of our State
University. Meetings have been held at Ann
Aroor. and elsewhere. to protest against the
action Of the Regents A preliminary meeting
Of the Alumni Of the University has heen held
TO be followed by a convention Of that inAuen
tial class Of our fellow citizens which meets,
we suppose, for tie purpose Of per-uading the
Board Of Regents to retrace the steps they have
taken.
II l. charged. generally that the Board were
actuated solely by feelings Of personal malice
in the removal Of Dr. Tappan; that this act
was col-ummat-d at an improper time namely.
Iu-t a. the Bard we're about TO vacate their
pos tons and after they had been repudiated
by The people Of the state. It is claimed. at
least we understand it 50. that Dr. Tappan is
the only man 6t to hold the high position Of
President Of the University. aud therefore.
should bis relations with iha, Institution ter
inmate by death. or from any Other cause, the
place must necessarily remain vacant.
We nave rNttAHN tll- Nl-Hf VIC AAit-As -.@..
but shall not presume TO decide upon the merits
OF the quest on al issue at least for the pres
cut The action Of the Board Of Regents has
been vigorously a-sailed by its opposer- but
ihe Board have not yet been heard IN their
own defense and 10 is always fair TO hear both
sides. But there are few considerations per
tain.ug 10 this question, which. If We felt ever
50 deeply on the subject would restrain u
from any violent ebuli.tion Of our feelings:
lst The Board Of Regents are the chosen
guardians Of the interests Of the University
they are clothed with administrative power
over it, Affairs aud it should not be presumed
that they would act from mere motives of per-
soal revenge TO the detriment Of the educa
tional interests of the State. without positive
proof to that effect.
% While the friends OF DR. Tappan are
highly incensed at bis removal. they are IN
able to bring objections against his successor
either from biz want Of learning character, ex-
per.ence. or ability.
81. II the appointment OF Prof Ravens be
bona hde as we think 10 Is and If be also ac-
cept the position 10 good faith. az We believe
be- has done. then the interests o. the University
and Of the cause Of education throughout the
state demand that be should be sustained.
We have a high regard for President Tappan
and appreciate his great services in building
up the University and making it what it Is,
but we have been brought reluctantly TO the
conclusion that the action OF the Board in his
case is inalty, and that the storm OF indigna-
ton raised against it will be- unavailing.
If anything can reconcile the people Of the
State to the removal Of DR.. Tappan, it is the
appointment Of such a man as Prot Ravens in
his stead. We believe the appointee en-
nenty fitted for the position, and that the
University under his administration, will not
only maintain the proud position it now occu-
pies but will go on increasing in prosperity
aud usefulness.
