indirectly seek to accomplish by it, which could
not be approved
No one of the Northern States, constituting as
they together do, a decided majority OF all the
States, desires to overthrow the Constitution of
the United States, or to withdraw from under its
operation; nor do any considerable portion,
perhaps not any, of the people of such States
manifest any desire to resist the legal execution
of the Constitution and laws Resistance to
illegal arrests aud mob violence Is not necessarily
resistance to the government. The courts, IN all
the Northern States, are and have been open.
But the Southern States are attempting, by vio-
lence, to2sever the Union, andt the Government of
the United States and the people of the Northern
States are attempting, as they assert, to prevent
the severance of the Union of these heretofore
united States. Such is the object, on both sides,
of the war: not to maintain orovcrthrow the old
legal Government of the United States. but, on
one SIDE to continue the existence of, and on the
other 10 sever the territorial unity of the nation.
| And the opposition to the Administration, mot
the Government in the quiet, law-abiding States
of the North is not forcible but peaceful differ
ence, and conflict of opinion and argument as to
the cause of the rebellion, and the measures
which should be pursued as best calculated to
restore territorial unity, under the government
of our fathers, with the least destruction
az property. the least sacrifice of life and const-
tutiona liberty and in the shortest possible time.
And the question now is, does such peaceful
conflict of opinion and argument justify the Adj
ministration in subecting those who differ with
it to the military powers For the case at bar,
though perhaps not of that description in it, facts,
vet rests entirely upon the principle, as we nc
marked at the outset, of governing by martial
law; as it would not be pretended that the mill
tary could make snch arrest Of the citizen as that
involved in this case, in time of peace. We shave

Hungarian Grass or Millet.

These plants, says the AgrieuZturist, are
of the same species (Setaria Halica,) diff
fering from each other as different kinds of
Maize vary. The Hungarian grass grows
much shorter, has purplish green head,
very briskly like the fox tail or bottle grass.
Both are excellent fodder crops. The Hun
garian is best sowed June 1st to 25th, pro-
duces hay much like rank Timothy, but
sweet and much liked by cattle. 1t should
be cut in blossom The millet, sown at the
same time, is coarser, but if cut while the
grain is in the blossom, Or in milk, makes
good hay also. On the whole we give pref
erence to the Hungarian. It is also good
fodder crop, and is treated in the same way.
Hungarian grass is said to prove occasion
ally fatal to horses and this is attributed
to the bristly envelop which surrounds the
fully ripened seed.

fell, instantly killed by three musket-balls,
even while asking that his life might be
spared as he had fought them manfully

motive for this murder seems to have been

An exchange very reasonably remarks
that the first thing that Congress ought to
do is to repeal, at the present session, the
duty on foreign paper and foreign coal.
The paper manufactures and coal dealers
are taking advantage Of the public which
can only be checked by opening wider
door to the free importation from abroad OF
foreign coal and paper There is no reason
why paper, fit for newspapers, should sell
for anything above twelve cents pound,
aud yet it is now held at eighteen and up
wards There is no better reason why the
hest coal should sell for over seven dollars
a ton, and yet it now brings eleven and a

press the great public, in order 10 ill their

cause why these two great necessaries OF
life now rule at prices full fifty per cent.

ties public opinion, and Congress alone has

combination of paper manufacturers shall

companies shall no longer have it in their
power to withhold coal from public use ex-

In our columns this week will be found
the advertisement of the 1910 I. 5. Bonds,
thus called because they have forty years to
run, but may be paid after ten years. A
cotemporary says, We know Of no better
investment than these for small or large
sums. The $50 six per cent Bonds are
already selling at ia to 10, and few can
be had The 10-40 Bonds are relatively
more valuable, because having longer time
torun. In England, three per cent. per
manent Government Stock IS considered a
good investment, though the National debt
is still tx ice our own, and the ability 10 pay
very far less. With our National troubles
settled, as we hope and believe they soon
will be, all Government Stocks viii stand at
q high premium. They have pledged for
their payment the whole property Of the
country, and take precedence Of al other
debts If the public faith should ever fail,
no other security would have any value.
The increased confidence In the triumph aGd
stability OF our country Is already creating
a very large demand for our National
Bonds, and with the return Of peace, this
demand will 50 increase as TO cali for large
share Of our National debt, to be returned
only as we demand the privilege Of paying
it. The longer running l0-40 Bonds will
be most sought after abroad. The present
prospect is, Shat this 200 million Popular
Loan viii soon be all taken up. This may
be followed by 3 per cent. loan if more
funds are needed. People so well under
stand the security and convenience of sta
bie Government Bonds, the interest paya-
bic at regular periods in gold coin, and the
interest coupons being everywhere eQuiga-
lent to gold, that even 4-per cent. Bond
would be preferred by many, to 6 or I per

sdered, we say to our readers and the citi-
zens Of Iowa County, subscribe for this
