exampIed, with military edicts cutting of our cir.
~culatlon in whole States and districts, threatened
with total suppression, personal imprisonment and

stood by the Democratic flag and gave expression to
its tenets. Twice burned to the ground within thlr-

EXCISE NOT AREAsON.

The country was astoninished when
the name of Reverdy Johnson was seen
recorded in fayo- of the bill Of abomina
tons imposing military despotisms upon
ten of the States of the Union The
astonishBent is not lessened, nor the re-
greet of those who once esteemed him as
a faithful and yalient champion Of con-
stitutionaJ liberty, removed, by his at
tempts to explain his position. His brief
speech in opposition to the veto Of the
President may pass for an excuse, but 1t
can never be taken as the reason Of a
statesman The sanction Of PROPOSE
ton which is condemned By the judgment
as subyersIre Of the constitution, and des~
tructive 90 sacred rights, upon the plea
that il is most as bad as it might have been
made, is dishonest and cowardly in one
entrusted With a part in public affairs
Il ia base abandonment Of conscience
to expediency. 1t is desertion of duty
in thehour of danger which no profession
of soiicinde for the good of the country
can paniate
We are panied to speak thus Of one who
has d0ne well, but such derehctions are
objectionable, and in men possessing the
weight of character Of ReTerdy Johnson
borders closely upon crime It iseyidence
at least that he has outliyed his usefulness
as a public man, and the sooner he retires
the better for his fame

The paper presented by Mr.. Brooks, OF
New York. in the House of Representa-
tives on Monday, will arrest general at
tention. 1t is the protest of tlirty-onc
members of the fortieth Congress against
the organization and proceedings which
may take place in the representative
branch Of that body while seventeen
States (nearly one-hah Of the Union)
are unrepresented, and One-third Of the
Representatives are unelected or refused
admission. This action is timely and
web taken, and should be adhered to.
The body that assembled Yesterday is not
the Congress Of the United States con-
ternpIated by the constitution 1t is an
unlawful and usurping assemblage, and
can do no act Of legal and binding force
upon any American citizen. We are
informed that the President notified its
committee that he had no communication
to make to them upon the state Of the
nation. Whether he did this in the view
that they4Were not a proper BODY to re
ccive Executive suggestions, or from the
fact that he did not deem it necessary to
make one, is not apparent But wateyer
his reason, his course was right A mes
sage from a President of a constitutional
government to revolutionary conclaye
is a mockery. If sent, this body would
not heed it, and it is therefore useless.
BY holding official relations, he would
impart more or less Of sanction to It's
lawless course. He has acted judici-
onsly.
The prompt course of the Conservatives
impeaches, in advance, and before the
whole nation, the rump Congress, and it
is the duty Of every true Conservative
to take up the contest, and urge an I'M
ceasing warfare upon it The power of
that Jacobin cabal must be broken, or
before the ides Of another March, the
Executive and the Supreme Judiciary
will be overthrown, and its unbridled will
will take the place Of law. The last
eighteen months has verified the fears the
fathers Of this government felt in regard
to Legislative usurpation The danger is
imminent, and unless an immediate and
vigorously sustained effort is made by the
people in support of the coordinate de-
partments, it will eliminate, and con
clude the most hopeful experiment yet
made in free government, in a tyranny
without parallel in ancient or modern
history.

THE PRESIDENTIAL. PROTEST.

We publish this morning the secOud
section OF the army appropriation bill
and the protest of the President which
accompanied his signature. The inser
ton Of this feature, and that in the sixth
section, emasculating the States of their
inherent and constitutional right to ems
ploy their own militia in self-defence, in
an appropriation bill, was a MASTER
peee Of interruptions state craft 1t
was a machiavellian mode Of accomplish
ing part Of the grand scheme ofecon-
solidation which looks TO the subsection
Of the States to prov nces, and Che lodg~
ing of all the powers Of the government
in the hands Of the Legislative majority
The adroit trick reduced the President to
the alternative Of yetOing the necessary
supplies to the maintainance OF the mil
tary establishment or of approving their
revolutionary proceedings. The former
he could not do without placing himself
in the power of his implacable enemies
who seek to impeach him He chose
therefore to sign the bin, but with his sig
nature sent the message referred to, pro
testing against the propriety and the con-
stitutionality of such legislation. There
are no means too mean for radical desper-
alton. Force, fraud and chicanery are
used without scruple or hesitation. Can
such a policy long prevail without des-
troying the government or arousing in
the people timely sense of danger
