Republican COppcrheads.

We observe sothe Indications OF the
prevalence of copperheadism in distin-
guished Republican quarters. For exam
pie:
The Supreme Court Of Vermont has de-
clare0 the soldiers voting bill Of that State
uncOnstIt utiOual, so far as it relates to the
election of State oficers.'
Again, Senator Hale, of New Hampshire
in speaking in the Senate, the other day,
of the effort in Congress to annihilate the
State banks, said the object would be more
easily understood if the measure were put
in this form:
And be it further enacted, that all those
instruments heretofore known as state con.
situations be, and they are hereby ABOLISH
ed
And again. Senator Doulit,le, Of Wiscon.
s;n on the same occasion, said:
i do net yieM to my honorable friend
from New Hampshire 10 my sincere res
pect as well as my deep and settled convic-
tion in the necess5ty of this government, as
well as the State governments thetaselves.

the rights Of the States under the CODsti

State rights, sir that they are expressly
mentioned, reserved, protected, and de-
fenced IN tie Constitution itself. and as
they are reserved by the COnstitutiqn, pro
tected, and defended, I believe 10 those
rights, and as citizen. Of the United States
and as q citizen, Of p State, T feel bound to-
respect and defend them.'
Now. all this is apprehension 10 it's
mtst malignant form. Neither ValIaudiR.
ham, or Powell nor Fernando Wood has
ever breathed worse coppsrheadism. Can
it be possible that the Supreme Court of
Vermont, and Senator Hale, of New Hamp.
