Mr. John T. Watkins, through Mrs. A.
d. Eger,on, has sent to the fair an ancient
arm chair, formerly the property of the late
George Washington Parke Gusts, the father
of the wife of Gen. Robert +. Lee. This
chair was saved from the White House. on
the PamuRkey river, when it was burned
by the Federal forces during the late war.
The White House, by Inheritance belonged
TO the family of Mrs. Lee, descending from
q. w. z. Gusts, her father grandson OF
Mrs. George Washington. The interest
taken in this venerable relic is very great,
and the old piece of furniture attracts much
attention from the many historic associations
connected with it.

MOSES AND AARON.

In one of his speeches in this city during
the war, after the Emancipation proclama-
ton, and after it had become apparent to the
North and the South and the rest Of man.
kind, that the success of the Union cause
was the death-knell to African slavery,
ANDREW JOHNSON said, substantially, to
the negroes, that humble and unworthy as
he might be, if no better should be found,
he would indeed be their Moss, and lead
them through the Red Sea of war and bond
age TO fairer future Of liberty and peace.
Since then, the Red Sea of war has been
passed over, and the slave is no longer in
bonds, But it is now said that in his veto
Of the Freedmen's Bureau and Civil Rights
bills, he has gone astray, and his enemies
the fanatics and Radicals-are initiating the
bad examples of the shorts GIFTED and dis
contented descendants of Jacob, and saying
with them:
As for this Moses who brought us up out Of the
him"
At the moment of this reproach Moses was
deeply engaged in the arduous duties Of
making their future free, secure and happy.
He had gone up into the mountain of the
Lord, and not returning upon the very in
slant, was condemned by the inconsiderate
and restless children Of Israel, and to justify
themselves in. discarding him, and in turn
ing their faces on the God of ABRAHAM and
the rest of the fathers Of their faith and hope,
and 10 excuse themselves for turning TO the
practices Of the heather, and setting up a
GOLDEN Deity, to save them from danger
and uncertainty, and 10 be worshipped by
them, their historian tells us:
And when the people saw that Moses delayed to
como down out Of the mount, the people gathered
themselves together unto AARON and said unto
him Up, make us gods which shall go before us ::
for as for this Moses. the man that brought US up
out Of the land Of Egypt, wot not what has
become Of him."
The children of Israel, the chosen people
Of God, went on and made and worshipped
their golden calf; they abused MOSES; but
in due time, through sorrow and suffering,
they come to knowledge of who, through
out all their tribulations, was their best
friend amongmen, and Moses was vindicated.

Stephen G.. Burbridge, well known as at one

THE National Intelligencer in a recent
number criticises the popular and frequently
improper application Of the term "uncon-
stitutionar to a proposed bill or act of a
Legislative body, and its views are, in the
main, just, though savoring somewhat of the
hypercritical. Few propositions are made
which are ,rhoIly in violation of the Consti-
tuition, and fewer still of such character
are enacted. Some wholesome and proper
laws, too, may have an unconstitutional
feature that upon hearing before the courts
would be promptly so adjudged. But on
the other hand, there are some measures,
which having many provisions which are
technically Constitutional, yet, in one or two
leading points are not, and whose spirit and
operation would be grossly violative of the
provisions of that instrument. If the
keenest-witted lawyer in the nation
were 10 analyze one of them, he
might find nine features to which no
constitutional objection could be laid, but
one 30 pervasively objectionablein its nature,
that the practical working Of the law would
be inconAict with the wise limitations of the
Constitution, and destructive of its intent
and purpose. Such measure is 'uncon-
stitutional," and it is proper so to describe
II, both because it is fact, and because, with
people jealous and watchful of theirrights,
it is the readiest mode of reaching and
srousing their attention TO the matter.
When a government like ours, however,
is long in the control of party who pay
no respect TO the Constitution, the use or
even the abuse Of the term "unconstitu-
tionalp used as descriptive of its proceed
ings becomes of small moment. 1t ceases
to have force or significance when contin-
ued course of misrule has debauched the
popular mind, and rendered the bad reck-
less, and the good respondent Until this
desperate state of affairs is reached, however,
il is wise 10 talk and to write of the Consti-
tuition, and 10 endeavor TO impress the pub
licjudgment against every proposition not
strictly in accordance with the spirit and the
letter Of the fundamental law Once beyond
il entirely, and there is a wide, wide sea,
swept with storms, and beneath it, a depth
of wretchedness which no plummet has ever
measured.
