Hence, the President derives the right to issue
proclamation Of amnesty. By the same
right President jackson issued his Proclama-
ton to South Carolina, to prevent war. The
President is to see the laws faithfully e1ecu-
ted. peaceably if be can, forcibly if be must.
Pierce sent troops to Boston to enforce the
Fugitive Slave Law, Buchanan to Kansas and
Utah to preserve peace. Asa question Of law
had they no right to do sos But beyond this,
as well as including it, Lincoln raised seventy
FIVE Thousand men to defend the Capital and
blockaded Southern ports, and the same has
been unanimously decided by the Supreme
Court to have been constitutionally done.
Secessionists and others who are with them in
feelings will find, that the Government has
ample constitutional power to protect, pre-
serve and defend itself against rebellous and
treason within a. well as war without. This
is why President johnson has power to issue

DAVIS ISDICTED.-The Mariposa Gazette of
the 10th has the following jeff Davis has
been indicted by Grand Jury in Washing
lon aud will have trial at on early day. The
proof against him certainly cannot be wanting;
but the defense will probably embrace some
important legal questions Already there has
been an effort chiefly made by the most rad-
cal of the old - Abolition party-to prove
that the rebels bad been recognized as bellig
erents-that they attsined the position of an
embryo nation, and that their acts cannot
properly be denomnated as treason. In other
words they claim that the magnitude of the
contest raised those engaged in it beyond the
danger of suffering for the crime, whilst they
admit that less powerful opposition to
the United States Government would have
Justly been held the essence of treason
1t is difficult TO discover any difference in the
crime, whether the revolt came near being
success, or proved mere wild and temporary
outburst OF passionate feeling. "Levying war"
against the Government is declared to be trea
sou, and the numbers engaged do not seem to
have anything to do with the making out of
the crime. To "levy war" necessarily requires
large numbers TO be enlisted in the scheme ;
and it would seem that it is no less crime for
three millions to rise in arms against the Gov
ernmeDt than it would be for hundred
thousand. Other questions will DO doubt be
raised, and the case will be thoroughly and
ably handled. The Supreme Court Of the
United States must finally pass upon all such
questions, and its decision accepted as the law
of the land.

PRIMARY ELEcTIoss.-The following from
the Red Bluff Independent is good for Union
and all other men to note, mark and inwardy
digest:
1t tis of the utmos. importance that The Un-
ion primaries be well attended. and judicious
choice made OF delegates to the County Con-
vention. The way that matters now stand, a
nomination by the Union party will be equiv
alent to an election, so that the real contest
will be decided at the primaries. as the differ
ent candidates will interest themselves 10 the
election of delegates favorable to themselves
While this is being done, we should not lose
sight of the fact that those delegates are to
express the choice OF a majority of the people,
and not their own individual preferences. The
primaries heretofore have been conducted by
half dozen individuals, who took an interest,
or had some FAX to grind" Let not this be
the case at the primaries about to come of
let the business men of the party all take an
cnterest, for the prosperity of the county de
pends, 10 q measure, upon the choice OF ofhcers
Every candidate, so far, who has been namedi
we do not recognize as having any particular
"clAim" over another. He is no true Union
man who puts forth his claims in preference to
the principles Of the Union party, and we hope
to see all these laid aside for the sake of bar
mony and consequent success. Mcclellan
men, who are sincere 10 their professions OF
Unonism, can vote and work for the success
of the Union ticket al the September election.
This will open the door for them to the Union
party organization but no one ever heard oil
