The Test Act and Perjury Twin
Sisters.

The writer OF the following article has
ever been opposed to the doctrine of seces-
sion. and has exerted his influence against
il to the extent of his abilities; and, since
the war commenced, has borne arms against
the rebels.
The Constitution of the United States
As at first adopted provided for the estab-
rshmen, of an independent Judiciary; it
forbade the passage of &c post tacto laws and
provi ded that tie trial of all crimes, ex-
cept in cases of impeachment, should Re
by Jury. So far as criminals alone might
be concerned these provisions would have
been amply sufficient to have secured them
q fair and impartial trial. But when the
Constitution was published and submitted
II the people for their ratification, the states
men of that day, the most OF whom had
been raised up under the British Govern
ment and knew from experience IN this
country the extent to which they had been
deprived of their rights and liberty by tie
enactments of the British Parliament, de-
termined to guard still more yigilantly
than had been done by the old Consti-
tuition the right of trial by jury, for they
knew then, as well as it is known now, that
liberty has no permanent existence under
any form of government where the right of
trial by jury is not strongly guarded against
legislative oppression. Fer this reason
alone it is very justly considered and called
q sacred privilege. The history Of the world
informs us that without this check majOri
ties will trample upon the rights and liber-
ti,s of minorities, for the protection Of
whose rights governments were instituted.
Maiorities can take care Of themselves and
when they disregard or trample over this
check the result in the end may injure
them as much or more than it did the mi
nority at first. Accordingly in the year
1889 they adopted the 5th and 9Th amend
meuts to the Constitution for the express
purpose Of forming more permanent check
or barrier against eucroachments upon the
rights ard liberties Of the people by
American Legislatures, or of any tampering
or interference herewith In these amend
ments it is provided that mo person shall
be held to answer for capital or other
wise Infamous offence unless on . present.
mept or indictment of grand jury"
.Nor shall be be compelled in any crimi-
nal case to be witness against himself;' y
"nor Be deprived of life, liberty or property
without due process Of law" In all prose-
cutions the accused shall enjoy the right
"to speedy and public trial by an impair
t;aI ;ury of the State and District, wherein
the crime shall have been committed;" and
to be Uniformed of the nature and cause oi
the accusation; to be confronted with wit
nesses against him; to have compulsory
process for obtaining witnesses in bis favor
and to have theassistance OF counsel for hi:
defence" Thus pointing out the course to
be pursued in all criminal cases so clearly
that school boy canreadily understand it

A WASHINGTON dispatch says several
bodies of refugees from Richmond have ar

report that the rebel authorities within the

Longstreet's army.
DISPATCHES from Knoxville to the 2lst

winter quarters at Morristown, and were
in force at Strawberry plains. They had
