Judge Lcavitt on the Constitution.

Judge bcavitt ON the CONSTITUTIONS
Judge LEAvrrT. Of the United states Dis
trict Court for the Southern District of
Ohio, in his charge to the Grand Jury of
the present term, is reported rs follows:
ale reminded them that, by the iiith
amebtlmcut Of the Constitution, II is
wisely provided that no person shall be
held TO answer for "A capital or infamous
crime. unless on presentment or indict-
ment by Grand Jury, with the exception oi
offenscs arising in the naval or military
service of the United states, on 'rh'ch nay
arise IN the emergencies Of 'odr.
II the Judge is correctly reported ms
charge to the Grand Jury was glarlng
misstatement of the law. and should sub
icct him tu the censure of every one who
respects judicial purity The iiIIh amend
mcnt TO the Constitution makes no such
exception as lac states. IL says nothing
about the 'oflenses which may arise Ia the
emergencies of war; The Judge, perhaps,
found IL necessary to make this addition,
because, on a certain memorable occasion.
the protection of his Court was demanded
by one who had committed no oilcusc, aud
was In no no wise connected with the ma
val or military service of the United
states" The protection was denied, and
for the Judge to have cited the amendment
correctly to the jury would have been to
give proof that lac had trampled upon thc
constitutional provision he quoted Tor lis

The last View of MIR. LincOln's Re
mains.

Governor OGLEsBY, accompanied by sew
cral members of the Monument Associa-
ton, visited Oak Ridge ,emetry, near
Springfield, H., few days since, and took
last look at the remains there buried of
President LINCOLN. As represented by Il
special despatch to the Cincinnati Gdgettc.
''fhe features of the deceased were scarcely
disccrnible, the embalmment seeming to
have offered but little, if any. resistance to
the encroachments Of corruption, and the
piece of clay that once lived, and moved,
and talked, and was known as ABRAHAM
LINCOLN, is being fast dissolved, rallcr from
rafter, and beam from beam and the par
ticles OF which i was curiousy COM
pounded, are rapidly returning to their
original elements.

HOP L.
When NIL around seems dark and drcar,
And sadness settles on tic heart,
And want and wrctchcdncss appear
To crush and wound the tender smart;
Hone comes to us on golden wings,
And whispers Of celestial things.
And when the mind grows grim and gray,
With memories past and gone,
And in the future shines no ray
To WOO and win us on,
Then hope, the guardian star of light,
Will drive away the shade Of night.
When doomed To roam tho world alone,
Withouta friend to cheer.
Uni aeta. .arisscA AEtdmknown.
Hope leaves her bright AMI dazzling throne
TO point us to a brighter home.
When wrongcd IL those we love the best.
And treated with diS,aim.
We weep and sigh TO hc Il, rest
From gricf, rcmorSc an,l pain
Then h"pc. sweet minister of heaven,
lids rs forgive and bc forgiven
When malice. Ikea hcinouS Spri,r,
Would r"h us ofonr maine.
And crush us down and strive To blight
With infImv and shame,
Hope, like the failed, hligltc,l rose.
Ecturns but sweetness for the blows.
When sorrow comes with Turning tc.:rs.
And claims us aS its own.
And death calls home the friends of ycn.s
And leaves us all alone.
Hope drives away the gathering gloom
Aud dark forchnding Of the tomb.
When called nj LIS, TO yield our breath,
And sink hcncal!i the w,vr
With that rcnors:lcSs stranger. death,
Down to The silcn, grave
Hope wipes the tcarlr"I,s from our eye.
And whispers il is sweet I" die.
