retired from the chamber, by psrmis-
sion of the people, on the fourth Of

ator, "Mack" says;
Poor McDougalI, known only for
his hSlfs ana his follies. Yet with
enough Of natures nobility underneath
them 10 ft out half a dozen sons of
temperance as gentlemen, and with an
intellect bright enough to strike
through the foggiest fumes of alcohol,
and put the most abstemiops of schol-
ars TO blush-it is hard to tell what
will become OF him aftNr the close of
his Senatorial career, on Monday next.
he iS said to have impoverished him
self within the last few years, and he
certainly is in q poor way to make a
living out ofa profession of which he
was an ornament ten years ago.
There are those now in Washinton
who remember HIM as one of the most
prominent lawerr in IllIaois, and still
later as successful rival TO the best
in California. To soc him lounging
around the bar-rooms Of Washington
NOW you would think him the last
man in the world to trust as an advo-
cate or counselor, and you might SET to
wondering how the California Lcgis-
laturo ever came to elect him to the
Senate of the United States. When he
was elected more than six years ago,
no was by no means total abstinence
man. / doubt if he ever was that
since he Vas old enough to tell good
whisky when he tasted it. He was
member of the House ten year ago,
and was then neither better nor worse
than his associates in his BAcch analian
deVotions.
"McDougall is, in many respects, an
extraordinary man. He has repeated
ly entered .hs Senate Chamber in a
condition, to all appearance, of abso-
lutte stupor, top.heavy and heal-hSavy,
unable to walk straight or stand
straight, and after listening a few
minutes to what was going on, risen
to reply to an argument no seemed
scarcely in a condition to comprehend,
and delivered a speech which, for
force of reasoning and beauty of die
tion, would do to transfer unaltered to
the pages of school book"

ZION,
Our correspondent, "a Veteran Oh
server" in a letter published IN yes
terday's Times, drew attention to the
changes in the construction of the Con-
stitution which the rebellion has
brought about. He comedies that the
Constitution of the United States is
not noW what it was believed and bold
to be ten or oven hve years ago. "Ths
Constitution" he says, "muSt be con-
Strued TO meet the wants of the people
hence it is practically changed accord
ing to the ideas and wants Of the day"
This may be perfectly true. But it
is equivalent to saying that tho Con-
stitution is a sham-that our system of
Constitutional Government is fail
ure, and that "the wants of tho pso-
plS"-the "ideas and wants cfthe day."
constitute tho only fundamental law
of tho land. England has just such
Constitution as that. The opinion of
Parliament, the votes Of the House Of
Commons, the will and wants of the
people, constitute the "unwritten Con-
stitution" by which England is gov
erned. Our Government is tending TO
precisely that result. Our Constitu-
tion in its theory was intended to be
the supreme law-limiting and re-
straining the action Of the Government
In every department, and putting
checks and restrictions upon the wants,
wishes and will of the people whenever
they should transcend its provlsions.-
This is the theory Of our form of Gov
ernmont. This Is the only object and
use of a written Constitution: When
il ceases to serve that end-whoa it
ceases to interpose barrier to popu
lar passion Or TO regulate and control
the action of Congress or tho Exscu-
tive o. the Judiciary, it ceases to per-
form the practical duty for which it
was ordained. t.t.ss
Our correspondent says these are
not changes in the Constitution, but
only in the construction put upon ;ts
provisions. Either this is a distinc-
tion without a difference, OF else the
Constitution is too vRkRe and unmean-
ing in its terms to have any practical
meaning whatever! The Constitution
says, for example, that "the writ Of
kabeas' corpus shalt mot be stspendsd
except when, in ease Of invasion or re-
bslliOn, tho public safety may require
it" Congress has just authorized the
suspension Of that wri. in ten States. -
There is no lnvasion-thsre is no re-
bsllion--and the public safety does not
require III yet the writ is suspended
all the same. IL thm mere difference
Of construction There is no room for
any such difference. The language is

we will state that the game is played

The player, after receiving the mar
bic, bears the number in his mind, and
his game is to pocket balls enough,
the number of which, added TO that on
the marble in his pocket, will make
the number which wins the pile.
Tho other night an old oltizen Of
one of our Western cities, who was
occasionally given to "chance," came
home rather late. Hiswife was asleep.
When she awoke in tho morning she
found on the floor a marble, upon
which was the number "17."

"Meanp II mean ?" said no hesita-

The theory of Professor Dorwin,
that all animal life has ITS origin in

only presents the different stages Of
development, from the lowest orders to
the most perfect creatlon--man-hns
been apparently sustained by start
ling example in this city, which will
bo likely to engage high degree oi
attention by the scientific world. Du-
ring last fall, Mr.. Charles Motzer, q
German citizen, residing on Bay street,
put up large quantity of his favorite
diet, known as Sauer Trout, in the pre-
paration ofwhich he tested the effica
cy Of receipt suggested by friend
Tho experiment proved a failure, as
the introduction of some description oi
alkali had the effect Of reducing the
cabbage into mash, and causing q
strong fermentation, rendering the
commodity entirely unfit for use as an
article Of diet. The mixture was left
standing in the cellar undisturbed un-
til Thursday last, when curious cir
cumStance led to an examination OF
the tubs in which 1t was deposited,
resulting in most wonderful discov-
cry.
On the day mentioned, a cat tTnerg-
ed from the cellar into Mr.. Motzer' .
kitchen, having in custody a large rOp.
tile Of the lizard species, which wrig-
glOd violently and seemed extremely
tenaOious of life. Mr.. Motzer at once
proceeded to the cellar and found some
dozen or more Of the same description
of reptiles, which were exceedingly
lively and sought to sScrste then selves
under boards, etc., on the approach Of
a light.
While prospecting about for the
source Of these strange creatures, the
tubs in which the ssuer krout had been
deposited were examined, and pre-
sented sight truly startling. The
substance had been transformed into a
mass fife and animation, and the
curious reptiles were observed in ev-
cry stage of development, The small
est specimens were about two inches
in length, and seemed to be acquiring
the least degree of animation. OF
these, the bodies we're quite transpar-
ent, with slight yollOwish tinge, and
