A False Idea Exposed.

The Louisville Democrat makes the fol
lowing welltimed remarks in reierece to
the idea of putting down the rebellion frst,
and then looking after our own liberties:
"No proposition is more untrue than
that we must crush the rebellion before
we try to preserve our Constitutional
rights. There is no antagonism between
the Constitution and hostility TO rebellion.
except when the Adm ministration makes
them antsgonistic. 1t it does this, we
have a right, aud it is duty, to refuse
men and money until the administration
submits to the Constitution. The object
of the refusal of men and money is to
force it to this. We must not submit to
the dogma that we shall not defend our
Constitutional rights until the rebellion is
over. 1t is gross misrepresentation to
say a people are incapable of defending
their Constitutional rights in time Of
war. They can and must do it then, of
all other times, they are most in peril -
The time is now-always now--and new
er hereafter. A people who are not al
ways jealous Of their liberties. are on the
right road to lose them. Why can not
they, in time of war, preserve their liber-
ties? Or why is the duty less urgent?-
Are they less wise? Are their liberties
less dear to them-less worth preserving?
In peace or in war. in prosperity or ad-
versity, the time for a people to hold and
maintain their liberties is now. always
now. Hereafter Is always to late"

A Remedy For The Small Pox

The German Reformed .NeSscnger has
received letter from friend in China,
in which it is stated great discovery is
reported to have been recently made by a
surg on of the English Army in China,
in the way of an eflcctual cure for the
small pox. The mode of treatment is AK
follows When the preceding fever is
at its height and just before the eruption
appears, the chest is rnhbel with croton
oil anG tarlaric ointment. This causes
tho whole of tho eruption to appear on
that part of the body. to tao relief of the
rest. Ii also secures full and complete
eruption, and thus preven,s the disease
from attacking the internal organs. This
is said to be now the established mode
of ueatmen, in China by general orders,
and is regarded as perfect success.

The Administration A Not the Gov.
ernment,

The Constitution provides that Lincoln,
Cha Sc, and the whole clan which now
composes. or at any time shall compose
tho Administration, may be impeached
expelled from office and disqualified -
When all this is done, does any one sup
pose that the Government is impeached!
Can you imagine such thing as the
Government being arranged before the
SeLale-expelled from otfice-and dis
qualified from holding office? Even the
suppostion is nonsensical. Lincoln
Chase IL Co., might all be hung as high
as John Brown, and still the Government
would en- lure, and probably suffer very
little detriment in consequence. Othe

had happily left vacant, and the Govern
nent would go on. just as if nothing had
happened. All this is so clesr-so self
evident-that it humilistes us to offer th'
argument to an intelligent and enlighten
ed people. Yet there are persons wh'
say "the Administration is tho Govern
