have been, cannot have the effect Of destroy
ing its political existence, or Of affecting its
rights in any respect, because their action,
call it secession, or rebellion against the Con-
stitution and laws of the United States, or
by whatever name you please, is in conflict
with that provision Of the sixth article al
ready quoted, which declares that the Con-
siitution Of the United States is "the supreme
d" law of the land anything in the
" Constitution or laws Of any State to the
" contrary Notwithstanding" Therefore, the
ordinance Of secession, intended by its trainers
to sever the relations of the State with the
Union, must be null and void, and an at-
tempt at usurpation, and for the same reason.
We have already seen that The President
is required to swear that he will preserve
protect and defend the Constitution of the
United States to the best Of his ability, and
that among the duties specially imposed on
him is this he shall take care that the laws
be faithfully executed.
1t is the Constitution which declares that
all legislative power is vested in the Con-
gress Of the United States; it is the Consti-
tuition which declares how that Congress
shall be organized, and Of what it shall con-
sist to wit: two Senators from each State,
and at least one Representative. When for
any cause Congress denies to State this
right of representation, in the Senate and
House, 1t violates the Constitution, which is
the supreme law of the land. Whose duty
is it to see that the laws are faithfully exc
cuteds Is this duty less imperative because
the transgressor is Congress instead of the
State of South Carolina? Will the Post
answer?
We propose to continue this discussion in
our next issue.

sTATUETTE OF ABRAHAM LIN.
| COLIN.

A most excellent model for life size or
colossal statue Of ABRAHAM LINCOLN is now
on exhibition at PHILP & SoLoMoYs'. It is
not LINCOLN at a banquet or after hearing Of
the first battle Of Bull Run, nor entertaining
a party with "lttle story" but it is the
LINCOLN whom we often saw on great occa-
sions, standing erect and patiently and
thoughtfully listening to some address to
which he was expected to reply. Those who
never saw Mr. LINCOLN at such q time would
not be impressed with the truthfulness Of the
artists production. But, in fact, the statu-
cite not only gives good idea of the tall,
gaunt form, but the likeness is excellent,
and the peculiar expression Of the face is to
to us perfectly natural, as Mr.. LINCOLN ap-
Feared on state occasions.
The artist has made one mistake in the
selection Of dress. Mr. LINCOLN never wore q
cloak like HENRY CLAY and ANDREW JACKSON.
During the progress of the war he walked
almost daily from the Executive Mansion to
the War Office, where he was in the habit Of
conversing with his generals in the field by tel
egraph. On these occasions he frequently
wore q large checkered Scotch shawl, at
other times surtout'-a long overcoat
which buttoned close to the body. Artists
prefer a cloak for paintings and statues,
because they think it little more classical,
its folds set off the work little better But
that should never be done at the expense Of
an important fact SO fresh in the memory of
oil who knew Mr.. LINCOLN, as is the one to
which We refer. As the statuette Of Mr..
PARKS is only a model for proposed col
lossal stature, the alteration to which we
allude can easily be made. That the artist
has studied his subject SO far as the form,
features, and expression worn by Mr.. LIN
colin are concerned, there can be no doubt
in the mind Of any person who knew Mr.
LINCOLN

TRIALS OF THE FENIANs.

Prccipitnte Action OF the Canadian Govern
ment-A New Batch of Fenians Indicted
-Conplications Thickcning.
TORONTO, Nov at not being understood that
any Fenian would be tried, the attendance at the
opening of the court was not very large; but upon
Daniel Wheelan's being placed in the dock, the
court rapidly filed and tho room became crowded
Mr.. Mckenzie asked for a postponemsnt Of the
trial until the 18th of next MONTH and after dis
cussion the 18th was fixed upon.
Mr.. Mckenzie then said he was ready to proceed
with the trial of Barriss but the Crown witnesses
not being present. it was postponed until Tuesday
next. -
The grand jury then entered the room with true
bills against Thomas Coonsy. Thomas schoal, VIM.
Duggany, and John o 0'Connor, all Fenian prisoners.
Cooney was then placed in the dock, and pleaded
not guilty. His trial was fixed for the 18th inst.
Scoal was next placed in the dock. He claimed to
bo an American citizen, and pleaded not guilty.
His trial was fixed for the 10th inst. Duggan
pleaded the same, and his trial was also fixed for
the 10th inst. Mr. Mckenzie then applied to have
the indictment quashed on the ground that the
different counts charged the prisoners with being
foreign subjects and British subjects. He sub
mited that they could not be both, and II held to
be British subjects they must be indicted for trea-
son. The judge overruled the objection for the
present. Mr.. Mckenzie gave notice he would
move the Crown to elect whether to try them as
British subjects or American citizens. His Lord
ship remarked that he thought 1t INTENDED that
the motion should be very proper one, but he
would leave the jury to say whether they were
British or American subjects. A similar notice
was given for Jno o'Connori and the Court then
adjourned until tomorrow, when the Rev. Mr..
| Lumsden's case comes up.
