The AcTs OF MILITARY DEsrorrsM.
The frauds and oppression that have
characterised the course Of the Ad-
ministration, since the suspension of
the Habeas Corpus, and the substitu-
ton of Military Commissions for Ju-
dcial Tribunals, and Courts Martial
for Juries, have grown to so monstrous
a height that the supporters of the
Administration begin to recoil from
them.
Senator Hale, of New Hampshire,
in the recent debate on the Conscrip-
ton Act, spoke eloquently on this sub
joct. He said.
If trial by jury is overthrown in this
country, take the rest. / would not
lift my hand, nor open my mouth, nor
counsel one of my constituents TO shed
a drop of blood, or pay a dollar of
treasure, II, the Constitution is to be
preserved einasculated Of this great
safeguard Of liberty. In these times,
when so much is demanded, and so
much is at stake, with generous con-
fidence l would give TO the Adminis-
tIatioff almost everything that they
want. / would consent and / have
consented, that the habeas corpus may
be suspended, and these extraordinary
tribunals may be erected. aud institu.

Voluntarily comes forward .anD Con-
meets .hiihself with the ptt4Aic service.
But Sir, If You are gVing to throw a
drag-het over thsland, if you are
going to bring in this whole people
and subject them to the pendties that
may be inflicted by military .tribunals
and those court-rnartials, then the last
step in the humiliation and the degra-
dation of the country is taken, and
we shall beleft fit instruments for any
despotism that tho bold and tho law
less may see proper to establish ,over.

ally assemble in Mecca and and upon

the cholera, or as the government prefers
to call 1t cholerina, was added TO the custo-
mary pests, and is said TO have carried of
twenty thousand people at Mecca and upon
Gebel Ararat within the short space of two
months. Private accounts place the loss OF

In alexandria have no more exact details as
to this terrible drama, which made no extra
ordinary impression upon the pilgrims
themselves, who, In their religious fanati-
cism, believe every one certain of Para disc
who dies during pilgrimage. The country

medical men the meagre reports we have are
derived from few Egyptian military sur
Reons, ordered by the government TO ac-
company the pilgrims from Egypt"
