SUPREME COURT OF THE UNI
TED STATES.

1t appears that majority of the .Su-
preme Court Of the United States are
getting back to the good old times Of
the Dred Scott decision A decision
was recently promulgated that Milligan
and Bowles, two OF the Indiana con-
spirators, who had been convicted by
a military commission, had been illegally
convicted, and should at once be set at
liberty, Now DR.. Mudd, O'Laughlin
and Spangler, who are confined at the
Dry Tortugas for the murder of Presi-
dent Lincoln, are to be brought back
and tried in a civil court, bya jury of
rebels. All know what the result will
be, This august tribunal have also de-
cided that the Missouri test oath is un-
constitutional, aud this also gives the
rebels great comfort. 9d7
The Civil Rights Bill, and the Con-
stitutional Amendment abolishing sla-
very, are set at naught in the slave
States, and no doubt the Supreme Court
viii hold both these void,
The following dispatch will show how
slavery is dead in Maryland, and how
long it will remain dead issue:
BALTIMORE. Dec. 24.--Four negroes, convicted
of larceny, and ordered 10 be sold BY Judge Ma
gruder, at Annapolis, were sold on Saturday.
Some 20 or 30 farmers were present at the sale.
The first one sold was John Johnson, who bid for
himself and theauctloneer taking his bid. Inc was
finally knocked down TO himself, and became his
own purchaser, for e87 Another man brought
sS5, and two girls brought respectively s2z and
$50 each.
There was an officer of the Freedmen's Bureau
1t the sales, and il was thought the bidding would
have been more spirited but for the fact that an
impression seemed TO prevail that the officer in
question was about to interfere with the right Of
The purchasers and release the negroes from the
custody Of the purchaser.
The officer, Major Yandelip, was, however, only
present for the purpose of making an affidavit 50
that Judge Magruder could be brought TO trial,
before United States Court, under the Civil
Rights bill. The affidavit was made before the
United States Commissioner, and the case will be
leard on Wednesday, probably.
The people, and their Congress, must

oreme Court checkmated, Or this old

HARD PLEASE.

The first session of the present Con-
gress took great deal of time to delib-
crate, and months were passed in debate
and speech making A great howl was
raised by the rebels, North and South,
that Congress did nothing but talk,
while the country was going to ruin.
The present session went to work at
once, and passed those measures that
had been SO thoroughly debated at the
last session. Now the cry is raised that
Congress is despotism, and that all
discussion is cut off. The fact is, these
traitors would grumble at anything.
They would complain at being hung
the very thing that ought to be extended
to all those leaders who took up arms to
overthrow "a Government that they had
sworn to support, '''''. '.'...

ARIGIITEOUs MOVEMENT.

We notice in the proceedings of the
House Of Representatives, when acting
upon the appropriation bill, that a reso-
luton passed that no assessor or collec-
tor should be paid, unless he should be
confirmed by the Senate, when such Of
hcer had been appointed for political
purposes, and whose predecessor had
been removed because he had been true
to principle. This Is a most righteous
movement Last summer Andrew
Johnson said he would kick out of
Office oil the true men who had been APP
pointed by Abraham Lincoln, and who
refused to turn traitorto theirpriuciples
And we are very sorry to say that there
were men mean enough to sell out Gor
these Offices, and go around the country
grinhing and showing the whites of
their eyes, nnd threatening that true
men should soon lose their bread and
butter" Now let Andy johnson pay
these fellows, or lot them go without
pay. The Congress ofthe United States
have control Of the nations money, and
Andy johnson and his "Satraps' may
yet learn that there is a God in Israel.
