hundred men, however, will be inspected by
a duly qualified surgeon on Monday, and if
they come up to the physical standard of the
Board, they will be at once appointed on the
force. All applicants for the offices of cap
tains and seargents who wish TO be appoint

The Commissioners have resolved to do
away entirely with the "day and night sys-

| force The men will be on duty so many
| hours-the exact number has not as yet been
| determined will be off duty so many
hours There will be a regular system in
regard to these 'turns Of duty" and those
who patrol during the day one week will be
on duty the next week during the night, and

their business entirely different from the
plan of the present regime. 1t is expected
that the members of the new force will be
thoroughly under instructions and drill on

THE orators at various Fenian meetings
are mmeasured in their denunciations of
ANDREW JOHNSON, for his late proclamation
in relation TO the enforcement Of our neu-
trality laws. The President was journey
man tailor when these laws were enacted
He had nothing more to do with their pas
sage than SWEENEY or ROBERTS, or even
Head Centre STEPHENS. In his present po-
sition he is under a sworn obligation to en-
force them-he has no alternative. In do.
ing 50 he can have no other motive than
that flowing from a sense Of duty-of impe-
rious official obligation. 1t has been repeat
edly done before, by both Wing and Demo-
cratic administrations.
~ 'ao marty. of revolution and Ill --
tins temporary dIspleasure of lrishmen as a
means Of exciting hostility towards the
President, TO weaken his efforts to reas-
sert the Constitution and laws of the land,
and TO restore the Union upon them.
This trick of the Sumner-Stevens politi-
clans will have its run-in the newspa-
pers, and be made the most Of 1t will
then pass away as the rest. ANDREW
JoHNsoN's record will show him to have
been more sincere and potential friend
Of the Irish people than any one of
his traducers, and to have served them
better than even ROBERTS or SWEENEY
now propose to do. As in all things,
he relies now upon time and the sober
reflections Of the people to approve or
condemn his public course, in the discharge
of his official functions. If his justification
is not complete in after-time, then he will
have nothing to object to the judgment of
his oountrymen and the rest of mankind.
The most noticeable fact in the matter,
however, is that the very papers that have
been mos! violent in the denunciations of
the Fenians, are the first TO traduce the
President on account of his execu ton Of the
npufralitv laws

TRUE WORDS.

The people of the United States says the
Boston Post, have been educated in the ideas
of personal liberty and States rights, as
limited and regulated by the National Con-
stitutiOn. Schemes for the consolidation of
political power in central government,
and plans for the abridgment of individual
freedom, cannot, therefore, long be counte-
nanced or tolerated by the American
people. And no portion of them would be
more hostile to a policy which would
abridge the rights of the States, and restrain
the liberty of the citizen, than the people of
the New England States with whom these
schemes Of consolidation originated and who
who have now become their most
jealous advocates. What State would
be more restless and rebellious if
Congress were to interfere with her domectic
concerns-were to attempt to regulate the
elective franchise, interfere with her school
system, dictate the manner in which she
should conduct her religious worship, or even
NEEDLE with their liquor laws, than the peo-
pie Of Massachusetts And what people
would be more indignant if their personal
rights and liberties were encroached upon?
Such invasions ofpublic and private rights
by the Central Government would in theend
fail, because they are against the spirit of our
institutions, and offend the ideas on which
the American people have been educated.
All such attempts to coerce and regulate the
affairs of the people of the South will ulti-
mately fail, and will recoil in the shape of
the odium which they viii engender upon
their authors and projectors
Our system is complex, and yet its prin-
ciples are well understood by the people. 1t
comprises one great Central Government
moving like the sun in the >Dlar system, on
an orbit clearly defined, and extending its
protection and its benefcence to all; and
system of States, like our planets and their
attendant! satellites. moving in orbits as
clearly defined; both independent of each
other in their respective spheres of action;
and both combining TO make one grand and
harmonious whole. The attempt to change
the relations Of the States with the Central
Government, to give them powers absolutely
sovereign and equal to the European Gov
eminent has been tried, and most signally
failed. The attempt to obliterate the States,
and merge them all in the Central Govern
ment, will be equally abortive. 1t would
be like arresting the planets in their revo-
buttons. and hurting them back into the sun.
Ii would involve the destruction of the sys-
tenn, and the necessity OF a new creation.

IL the subioined remark recently made
by one Of the Senators from Ohio, NAV be
found the gist of the evil of the times. Du-
ring the discussion, on Thursday last, Of the
reconstruction question, Mr.. Doolittle offered
an amendment in lieu Of the Senate caucus
proposition regarding the basis of suffrage in
the States. Mr.. Sherman, Of Ohio, said "he
believed Mr. Doolittle's amendment uas riqLt
IN principle, Bat he should foic against Il BE-
oduse he felt Il has duty 10 sustain the action
agreed upon By his political friends, and he
knew il would be impossible TO arrive at
any conclusion without some sacrifice Of
personal preferences"
A Senator, under the solemn responsibility
Of his official oath, declares himself ready TO
vote against his convictions Of right in order
that his party may be sustained. That this
has been done time and again there is no
doubt but we do not recollect a previous
instance in which it has been 50 clearly
avowed. To reach conclusion satisfactory
10 his political friends" Senator Sherman
is willing to forego his personal prefer
onoes to forget his sworn duty-to sacri-
flee his sense Of right, and abandon his
principles.
When thisis the motive which nctuates
prominent men in the Government how
can We expect wise and wholesome legisla-
ton The good Of the country is made sub-
ordinate to the INTERESTS Of party, and that is
the reason the "times are out Of Joint"

CONFEDERATE Judge Noise.
in an argument Of three quarters Of an hour.
Yesterday, appears TO have demolished Mr..
Durant's very able defense Of the validity Of
Confederate notes as a consideration for a
contract. This was in the case Of the Union
BANK Of Tennessee, against Nixon, before
Judge Duplanter Oft the Sixth District Court.
The Judge refused the new trial ON the
ground Of the decision in the case ofSchmidt
VS. Baker, which bNs already been published
in this paper. IL may therefore be consid-
cred az The settled law Of this State, that con-
tracts In which Confederate money is the
consideration cannot be enforced al law

UPON our table is a pamphlet done in
elegant typography-an Grafton upon the
life and character of Henry Winter Davis,
by Senator Creswell, Of Maryland, printed,
We presume, at the expense of the Govern
ment, as the House of Representatives ded-
icated the anniversary of Washington's birth
day to listening to its delivery. As liter
airy performance it is mediocre; as a dema-
goguical appeal TO radicalism it is immea-
surably contemplate
Mr.. Davis at the time of his death, was a
private citizen He had filled public station,
and exhibited genius, but had performed
no public service emitting him 10 the special
honor which his party friends, for party
purposes, attempted to make a national tes-
timonial. They, As well as the eulogist
whose effort is before us, have overdone the
work. In their eagerness TO make capital
over his dead body, they have sent Mr.. Davis
before the tribunal Of history with a reputa-
ton which cannot be sustained, and his true
fame will suffer in %oportion. Mr.. Cres-
wells speech, feeble as it is, smells not only
OF the lamp, but Of the stump.
