r.nMER XS LAw

The House Of Misrepresentatives ol
the Tennessee very Common Council,
has preferred articles of Impeachment
against Judge FRAZIER, Of Davidson, by
a vote Of forty-three to tweHty-one, be-
cause he issued a writ Of Habeas Corpus
to the Sergeant-at-arms ofthe House, for
the body of a member of it arrested by
order Of the House for absence without
leave.
The House of Commons of England,
which has been supposed to be a body Of
about as much dignity and Importance
as the Hoyel Of misrepresentation ofthe
e~masculated State of Tennessee, once I'M
dertook to discipline the Court of Kings
Bench, when Chief Justice Holt re-
leased a person imprisoned illegally by
order Of the House. The Speaker pro-
eeeded to the Court in person, bearing
the mandate of the House and the an
swer Of the Lord Chief Justice was,
=" Mr.. Speaker, yoHSad better return to
the place whence you came for if you
should again come hither on a like
errand, 1 will commit you to the Fleet,
if you had the whole House Of Commons
in your belly"
That was in ENGLAND, whence the
forefatherS of Tennesseeans came, and
where it was supposed that it was essen
tial to the liberties Of the people that the
great writ Of Habeas Corpus was one Of
RIGHT, which no jadge had any power
or discretion TO deny. We have lost our
English liberty, and gained, instead,
that Of the reign Of The Mountain - in
France. Instead Of the government Of.
the Law, we have that Of Force. or.
course, as always, it follows that not the
wisest and best, but The basesl. rule.

GOOD Thing.

A jokist, OF Somerset, Ky, tells th,
Cincinnati Commercial that the follow
ing took place in the Kentucky legisla
ture a few days ago:
A member from n of our mountain
counties, full OF conservatism, and ;
strong advocate Of the Louisville Jour
nal, each morning as he would take hi
seat in the house, as business opened
would commence reading his favoritt
paper and about the same moment some
member would move 10 dispense Will
me reading of the journal, and our noun.
tam member would lay down his paper.
he slood lhis for some time, when. rising
from his seat one morning after the usnal
motion, he exclaimed at the top of M
voice:
"Mr. Speaker, pve sot here in mvsoa,
fur morn a week and submitted - ~
tyranny Of this house. Somebody ever,,
morning, o TO dispense with tbSs
reading Of the { Journal and Pve Lost
every paper I've bought for a week IN,
it, and no man has ever moved TO dis
nense with the Democrat or CONNER

Here the balance WA lost in the gene

MOVEMENTS or MEXICAN BELL9G.
EREET%

All the interest of Mexican news now
centers in the movements Of the two
belligerent armies. Both have taken the
field aud are rapidly moving toward each
other. The advance forces of the impe-
~rialists were at last accounts in Quere-
tarO. They number three to four thOus-
and men, under command of Gen. Meiia,
the'ssme who held MatamOros so long
against great odds. He occupied Quere-
taro Immediately after the Withdrawal
of the French, and expected to get many
volunteers there. A letter says:
The spirit which animates the pOpUla-
ton is remarkable. Although Quere-
tarO is not a military place, If any enc
my approaches, oUr generals can count
upon strong reinforcement from the iu-
habitants.
The feeling is about equally bitter
against the French and the liberals.
!. Gen. Mendez had left Morelia with a
brigade in the direction Of Guadalajara,
and it is said that it is a part Of Mejia's
plan Of operations to reeapture that city.
Near Guanajuato there had already
been a skiTmish. Gen. AntillOn, in
command of a battalion Of cavalry, had
made a dash upon it but, after a few
shots, retired. A similar affair had
taken place at Salamanca, and the
Juarista forces, commanded by AntiliOn,
were compelled to retire. Gen. Liceaga
was ordered to reinforce G~uanajuatO with
his brigade.
Gen. .Bustsmente had, at last accounts,
5000 we'll armed men at San Luis PotOsi,
and was inforcing the conscription with
the ultimate object Of moving forward TO
the scene of conflict.
The forces of both armies were rapidly
concentrating, and it is probable a gen.
eral engagement, that will decide the
fate of the capital, cannot long be avoid
ed. The general opinion Of gentlemen
who have recently arrived here from the
interior of Mexico, is hat after the
departure of the French, !the imperialists
hold out long against the coneenI
armieaof he north. But in any
case, il is believed; the decisive engage
will be fought far enough from the
for Macmillan to make his es-
if it gOesa gainst him.

Population Of Alabama.

According to the returns made, to the
office of secretary Of state, and trans.
mitted to the legislature, the aggregate
| population of the state is 1874, OF
which number there are So gS whites.
and 422,4 45 negroes. The state census Of
1860 gave, we believe, the entire popula-
ton 5 964, POI of which 526. 43i We're
whites, and 49,, 40 eOlOred. The census
just submitted, therefore, shows a de-
crease in six years Of 1857 in the popu-
lati0n of the state; the diminution of
whites being $685., and OF the colored
1926. The decrease Of the white popu-
ulatioa is comparatively small; that Of
the eolored race very large, being at the
rate of 2555 per year. Assuming that as
many negroes have come into the state
as have left during the six years, the NOR,
tality a only be accounted for on the
fact that since their freedom a very large
portion Of them have not been as well
fed aud clothed as they were in the DAYS
Of their serVitude.

The supreme court Of the United States

The supreme court Of the United States
is complimented by the legislature OF

and by the New York Tribune thus:
"NOw, then, is there one man on all
the earth who believes that these mid
night assassins of federal soldiers for
simply doing theA0Sty are or ever were
in danger Of being arrested, tried, con-
victed and punished toy the present local
authorities of South C%'arolina or of Geor-
gia? And if not, what is the action of
the supreme and district courts in their
case but a proclamation of impunity' 10
rebel assassins And is it within the
compass of human imagination to fancy
John Marshall pronouncing a decition
whereof this would be the natural re.
suit? And if mora soldiers, or other
loyal persons, shall be murdered urder

shall laugh TO seorn the suggestion of

PERII.OUs
Military Tyranny in Georgia.

We learn from the Rome Courier. Of
Saturday, that on the day before fifty
nine men of companies d and G., 10Th
United states regulars, under command
Of Capt. Mills and escorted by Capt. De Ia
Mesa, Of 1.-THE free 1men's bureau, arrived in
that city by railway train, and immedi-
ately arrested L. T. Mitchell, r. +. Hutch
ings, NJ. Pate and H.. Wells. A squad
was also detached 20 arrest Henry A.
smith and David POwtirs, but succeeded
only in finding the latter. The Offense
Of these young gentlemen, as stated by
the Courier, was that "they took part in
a charitablee ntertainmentin which atab-
leaux called The Officers Funeral was
represented, wherein a Confederate flag
was exhibited" Capt. De Ia Mesa stated
that he had orders 10 arrest all who took
part in that exhibition-both ladies and
gentlemen-but he would take the re-
spOnsibility OF executing them only upon
offenders Of the sterner sex.
The prisoners were all marched to the
courthouse and placed under heavy
gnard. Bail was refused. A writ OF
habeas corpus was then sued out before
Judge ID. NJ. Wood, Of the county court,
the result Of which had not transpired.
In a subsequent issue the Courier says
After our paper had gone to press on last
Friday evening, Mr.. VIM. Gibbons was
arrested under the following circum-
stancs Capt. De Ia Mesa demanded
Of him the Confederate flag that
was exhibited on the stage on the
Sd instant. Mr.. Gibbons told him
that he did not know where the flag
was. Capt. NJ. informed him unless he
produced that flag Immediately be
would be arrested Mr. q said he ocr,TJ
not possibly do so, as he did not know
where II WIS thereupOn Capt. NJ. or.
dered his arrest by a squad Of soldiers
he had at hand.
Mr. Dave Powers was released about
II O'Clock Friday night. All the other.
arrested were carried Off on the train

names Of these unfortunate sufferers are
