At this time Mr.. Curran announced the
return Of Tones father with message that
General Craig refused to obey the writ OF
habeas corpus.
Chief Justice-'Mr. Sheriff take the body
of Tone into custody. Take the provost
marshal and Major Sandys into custody,
and show the order Of the court 10 Gen.
Craig.
1t was now universally believed that the
military authorities who had thus presumed
to trihe with the powers OF the Kings Bench,
would have Tone executed on the instant.
Lord Kilwarden. great constitutional judge,
was very much affected. His agitation,
said Curran, was magnificent 1t soon
traspired, however, that Tone, indignant at
the menaced degradation Of bis death, had,
with small penknife which he had man
aged to conceal, inflicted such wound on
bis throat that be had little to fear from
this worlds jurisdiction. The Chief Justice,
however, as a matter of precautiou, ordered
a writ to be issued suspending the execution,
1t is said on the surgeon expressing an
opinion that, as the carotid artery bad es-
capped the wound was not necessarily fatal.
Tone family muttered, 4 am sorry then to
find that have been so bad an anatomist.'
He survived, however, in silent agony for
seven days. when the same surgeon, seeing
that he was sinking, whispered to an attend
ant, You must keep him as quiet as possible.

1.-THE Miller of Harz."

A miller of Harz on long Summers day,
Fell asleep in the shade of his mill,
And dreamed of sure and speedy way
His coffnrs with riches to fill.
cracking old wheel that his forefathcrs built,
And the force of stream turned around,
For century past had driven the mill,
And the grain for century ground.
But it happened this day that the brook was low,
And the noisy old wheel stood still;
So the miller for lack OF something TO 10,
Fell asleep in the shade OF the mill
AS soon as he woke he at once began
To follow the plan of his dream,
And in spite of all that his friends could say,
He turned the course of the stresm
The Summer had passed. cold Winter was nigh.
Still the miller could grind no corn,
And the neghbors who laughed at mis- useless
work,
He answered with bitter scorn.
The dam was finished, but not that year,
The people had ceas-d to go
To the little mill whose idle wheel
Was buried beneath the snow.
To the miler's joy, the Spring time came,
And the torrents poured into the glen
Filling up to the brim the pond he had made,
And turning the wheel again.
But one night as the villagers safe at home
Heard the sobs of the driving rain,
The dam gave way, and down the stream
Went the miller, the mill and the grain.
How many man in every land
Like the miller, has followed q dream,
And sooner or later, with mill and grain,
Like the miller, gone down the stream.

One Of the Brute's Loyal Transactions.

During Buffers occupation of New Or
leans bis brother A. J. (siuce deceased }
loaded two schooners with goods for the
Confederates, both clearing for Matamoras,
and further provided with the Beasts pass
or protection. One schooner was overhaued
by Capt Cbas. Higgins, in command Of the
Pamrero guardship on Lake Ponchartran;
the other schooner by Capt. Higgins of the
gunboat Kiusmap, 10 Sabine Bay, and the
facts reported to Admiral Farragut, who in
structed his officers to let the schooners go,
Ibut to watch them, as he did not wish to
come in collision with Butler. The vessels
were watched-one discharged its cargo at
Ponehartrain, 40 miles across the Lake; the
other ran into Sabine Pass, Texas, and each
returned loaded with cotton. These are facts
which can be proved beyond the possibility
OF . doubt. The military career () of But
Ter in New Orleans is made up of just such
brilliant incidents as The above, checsered
With spoon stealing, Ship Island banisbing,
and women Insulting.

AMUSING CoMpARlsoNs--Ihe gravity Of
the Supreme Court was somewhat shaken
on the 17th Of April, during the argument
of the Massachusetts liquor cases, by Attor
ney General Reed, of that State, and Mr..
George Sennot. The latter appeared for
the liquor dealers, and in the course Of bis
argument used the following illustration:
The State of Massachusetts monopolizes the
liquor trade and also the liquor; and they
say, through their Attorney General, that
they do so according to the Constitution.
Why, on the same principle, do they not
monopolize the female sex, and insist that
none shall marry except State Commist
sioner and some we'll selected agents9 They
might then select our wives for US, as they
now select our liquor, aud deal out the pleas
ures of the family as they do those Of the
table. Boston would then lay claim to the
title of the "Modern Sparta" iu addition TO
the title of the "Modern Athens" Mr..

mony caused the whole court to roar, in

Ills the Government a Failures"

Some of the Radical papers are discussing
the proposition: "Is the Government fall
urea" and appear to lean to the opinion that
it is If tho Radical Congress, which has
controlled public affairs for several years, is
to be considered "the Government" as ito
partisans insist, we are free to confess that
it is not only miserable failure, but acurse.
We admi, that the administration Of Govern
mental affairs for the last six years has been
deplorable failure, except to the mischief it
has done. In evil results its success has
been all that its most ardent admirers could
have desired, but it is not fair to Judge Of
the excellence of our form Of Government BY
the present condition of the country. II is
that in the Radical hands it has degenerated
from q government Of the people to one of
party, and only class Of party at that.
1t has been converted into a machine 10
grind Ne poor and extort money from them
for TIE benefit of Radical shoddy bondholders
and nabobs. 1t has created ali immense
public debt for the poor to pay, and has con-
verted ten States into disorganzed Terrific.
ries, requiring large standing army costing
hundreds of millions Of dollars, to keep them
in subjection. Stateright and personal lib.
erty are no longer respected. Crime has
greatly increased and all the indications
show that we are on the high road to ruin.
This, however, is not the fault Of our system
OF government, but of the miserable corrupt
and incompetent hands into which it has
fallen. Up to the time the Radicals came
int o power, embracing three quarters Of
century, our Government was the most
splendid success the world ever saw. Under il

scattered along the Atlantic shores with little
wealth and few facilities for commerce OK.
cept those provided by nature, to thirty mill.
ions spread across the broad face OF the con.
tnent, with territory greater than all
Europe, watered by splendid rivers and COW
cred with a network Of railroads. Our com,
merce had expanded to enormous proper
tions, and every sea was whitened with sails
of our merchantmen. Agriculture and other
branches of industry were in the most -four
ishing condition. The Government was I'D.
mnisiered for the benefit Of all. 1t owed
nothing and exacted little of the people.
They were free, prosperous and contented.-
What better Government could have been
desired9 1t was success so grand as to bs
the admiration Of all the world, and terror
to tyrants. Is not the part Of wisdom for us
to return to that Government The road 10
still open to US and easily travelled. All that
is necessary is to return to our allegiance 10
the Constitu ton, and restore the good old
measures which crowned us with prosperity.
If the people will insist on strict construc-
tion of the Constitution, demand that State
and individual rights shall be respected; re-
quire the enactment of laws establishing
free trade and reducing taxation, we may be
happy yet, and the good old ship of State
will sail on many a prosperous and glorious
cruise Vanguard.
