In the Supreme Court, Monday last, Judge
Scorr rendered decision in the case from
WJandott county argued a few weeks ago,
which had attracted large share of the pub
lie attention in consequence of the supposi-
ton that it would dispose of the question of
the constitutionality of the law authorizing
the soldiers absent in the field, hospital or
camp, to vote for State and county officers
The Union candidate for Sheriff of that
county. who was defrauded of his election
by the Clerk assuming the responsibility Of
throwing out the entire vote cast by soldiers
applied to the Court for an order compelling
him to count the votes referred to, which
would elect the candidates on the Union tick
ct. The Court decided that the applicant had
his remedy in the Court of Common Pleas,
and therefore refused to grant the order asked
for-the decision of which preliminary ques-
ton disposed of the case without the question
of the constitutionality of the law being pass
ed upon by the Court.
The Cincinnati Enquirer, Medarys Crisis,
and the papers that follow in their wake, are
fsrOcious in their assaults upon the law be-
cause of the unanimity with which the soldiers
sustained with their ballots the cause for which
they sre risking their lives in front of the ene-
my. Just previous to the election the
Democratic State Central COMMITTEES, headed
by Medary, issued an address to the soldiers
in the field, urging them to vote the Demo-
cratic ticket, declaring their party had been
the especial friend of the soldier and to it they
were entitled for the privilege Of vOting.--
They had no objections to urge against the
law then but as soon as the character of the
record made BY the soldiers at the polls be-
came known, they discovered the law was I'M
constitutional, and became clamorous 70 r
its repeal or decision declaring il void
They can now see no propriety in a soldiers
voting; declare it should not be submitted to /;
and to the outrage of seeking to deprive the
defenders Of our homes and institutions of the
right Of suffrage, add the insult of charging
that these brave men, who face the cannon
and musket of the enemy in the field, are
such miserable csWards that they dare not
vote their honest sentiments, but are in this
matter entirely subject to the will of their Off
GERS These are things which are known by

ty that sustained one Of the most overwhelm-
ing defeats known to political contests be-
cause it arrayed itself in hostility to the cause
Of our imperiled country, will not improve its
popularity by advocating the Acknowledgement
of the gallant men who leave their homes to
fight our battles, and by charging that they
lack the Independence and courage to vote
their honest sentiments.

TIE NEWS.

There is nothing to chronicle IN
the way of war news. Occasional
raids and skirmishes are reported,
but there is nothing transpiring Of
Importance, nor any probability of
active operations IN any quarter for
some time to come.
The latest advices from East Ten
nessee discredit the recent reports
that Longstreet had been heavily
REINFORCED and was marching on
Knoxville. 1t is not likely his army
is in condition to make an aggre S
sive movement in the present state
of the roads and the weather.
Our veteran troops are re-enlis-
ting in large numbers, and regi-
ments from all the loyal States are
constantly leaving for home to en-
joy their thirty days furlough and
fill up their depleted ranks. These
movements do not weaken the ar
my to any considerable extent, as
the number ofrecruits going to the
field is nearly if not quite sufficient
to make good the number leaving
on furlough.
1t is officially announced that Maj.
General RosEcRANs is assigned to
the command of the Department of
Missouri, and he has started for his
new field of operations.
The desertions from the rebel
ranks are unusually frequent and
numerous of late, and are daily be-
coming more SO. The principal
reason for this is the perfdy of the
rebel Congress in passing a law
declaring the men conscripted to
remain in the service whose time of
enlistment has nearly expired. An
entire regiment attempted to desert
on the Rapidan few days ago, and
were forced into subjeetion at the
point of the bayonet.
The discomfort which has fol
some time been manifest in North
Carolina, has increas ed to an extent
that show the people to be ripe for
a general revolt against the Rich h
nond despotism; and the same feel
ing is rapidly growing in Georgia
and other States still under rebe.
sway.
Earnest movements are bein G
made in Tennessee, Arkansas and
Louisiana to bring those states bacl
into the Union as free States-and q
present appearances indicate the
success of the movements.
