rebel cause 1t predicted and virtually de-
manded President Lincoln ssassination it
exulted, and still exults, over that fiendish
crime; and it day by day denounces the
National Debt huge, atrocious swindle,
which is to be wiped out as soon as the De-
mocracy gets into power. Here Is one Of
its latest bricks
'.Rebellion crime" Liar in your throat Phil
Sheridan! Every hour justifes the acts eff those
who, from Bull Run to Richmond through four
years of battle and blood, sacrifices and strug-
giles, labored suffered fought, died. for the cause
of civil freedom. Every passing day proves the
soundness of their judgment, the wisdom of those
who strove for independence. Every revolving
year makes the 'lost cause more sacred to the
lovers of liberty dearer TO the hearts of those who
were faithful to it from its inception its tempo

What do our brave soldiers think Of
that? How do they like to hear Little
Phil. called liar because he asserts that
rebellion is a crime?" How do they like
to be told that the lost cause" of rebels is
more sacred than the preservation of the
Union. How do they relish the asse rtion
that "every hour justifies the Staying of
their brave comrades at Bull Run, the Will

clare the policies fthe nation be maintained,
or shall it be usurped by one manP Besides
this overshadowing issue, all questions Of the
Presidents private character and habits, all
his foolish speeches, all his partisan removals
from office, sink into the merest insignia
canoe. They are but the incidents to this
great question. They are but the offShoots
of that giant trunk of usurpation known as
''My Policy"
We Will add but single remark. This
issue must be met. 1t cannot be evaded. The
usurpation continues, and stands in the way
of all attempts to restore. order and pros
perity to the nation. Congress is fighting a
greater battle for popular rights and tor our
constitutional form of government than has
ever before been waged on this continent.
Behind it is a waiting nation, chatting under
the base betrayal of its confidence by faith
less Executive, and impatient at his pro-
longed attempt to usurp those supreme func-
tions which the people have reserved to
themselves alone.

No MORE VETOEs.-There is a rumor cur
rent in Washington which has at least the
semblance of probability. 1t is authOrita-
lively stated that the President, in view of
the uselessness of the exercise of the veto
power, has concluded to allow all acts which
have not his approval to become laws by the
lapes OF ten days without his signature. As
he has thus allowed several bills to which he
is opposed to go into operation, we think
it not improbable that such is his determina-
ton. If it is, we congratulate the country
on the change of base. By it considerable
Government paper is saved, and also the time
consumed in reading the message to the
House, and calling the roll to secure its final
passage. 1t is not only idle and iactiOus in
the Executive to try to interpose his autho-
rity TO stop the expression of the will of the
people, but it is a criminal exercise OF power
entrusted to him as check to hasty legisla-
ton, and not to enable him TO override the
utterances of the popular voice.

Mr.. MINISTER" CowAN.-From all sides
we hear condemnations of the selection of such
a man as Edgar Cowan to represent our
country at first-class Court. The Nation, a
paper never Influenced by partisan malignity,
thus speaks OF such SELECTION
"Mr. Cowan has been nominated as Minister
to Austria III place OF Mr.. Motley, who, Mr.
johnson says, resigned, but who, Mr., Sumner
says, has been removed expressly to make way
Tor MIR. CoWan. Mr.. Sumner has therefore very
properly called on the President for the cor
respOndenCe in the case, and should it prove
that man like Motley has been turned out of
the public service to make way for a man like
CowaE, we trust the Senate will do its duty, ana
see tha' the arrangement Is never carried out.
The Pennsy lvanla Legislature Is highly indIg.
nant at MI. Cowan's ppOintment, on the ground
that, after they have pronounced him undt to be
senator, it is an insult to The State TO make him
national representative abroad. We sh Jud
share i'll this view II Senators we're never turned
out except for bad behavior, but unfortunately,
they are so often dismissed SIMPLY for
the rurpOse of giving some one else "a
chance that dismissal does not necessarily
carry with it moral or political stigma. Mr..
Cowan has lately laid down his own views on
the subject of tenure of office, in which he pro.
mulgated the doctrine OF rotation in office in the
very form IN which every trickster, intriguer,
vagabond, knaVe, and adVenturer loves and uD-
holds 1t. We trust, therefore, he will get no
place OF honor and profit, and that the Senate
