MILITARY COMMISSIONS.

The recent decision of the Supreme
Court OF the United States decreeing
the unconstitutionality of the Militia
~ Commissions, which were called
into being by our necessities in de-
Tending the country against the re-
bellion, is Of more Importance than
the casual observer is let to infer.
Judge Miller, of Iowa, who was ap-
pointed by President Lincoln, became
recreant to his avowed principles,
and it is said, that it was through
this detection that the majority in the
Court was obtained. While it is our
bounden duty to submit to this deci.
sion, we cannot but regret its oc-
currence Not that we are in favor
of these Military Commissions, or
any other extra judicial tribunal for
! the trial and punishment of criminals,
in times of peace, and when through
! the Civil Tribunals all offences can
be reached but in the present con-
dition of the late rebellious States,
this is not the fact, as every Impair
tial reader must know. We have
Onl Y to look at late case which oc-
Cured in Richmond, and it is one
among thousands which have taken
place in the South within the last
year.
The facts, as they have been stated
are of the most hagrant character.
Two families in Rockbridge county
one Of Dr.. Watson, the other of Ma.
ior EchOls-were on a Sunday driv-
ing to church, in their respective car
riages, each with negro coachman.
In a narrow part of the road, the
driver of Major EchoPs carriage at
tempted to get ahead of the other,
notwithstanding the remonstrances
Of DR.. Watson's coachman. A col.
lision ensued, which broke one of the
wheels of the Doctors carriage, and
made the horses manageable
They ran away, and the carriage was
broken to pieces, though, fortunate
ly, without injuring either of its oc-
cupants. A few days afterwards DR..
Watson, who was then absent from
home, returned, and learned what
had taken place. He Immediately
rode over to Major Echols's, and find
ing the negro coachman in the field,
told him he had come to chastise him
for what he had done-and thereup-
on began striking him with stick, |
which the man wrenched from his |
hands, and attempted to run away
The Doctor commanded him to stop, |
Or he would shoot him; and, as the !
negro did not heed him. be fred bis |

MORALS were presented in reference
to the tariff question for increase

and of certain Government employ
ees against the contraction of the
currency ; for the repeal Of the law

bill to set aside internalrevenue pro-
ceeds of the Territories for the cree.
tion of penitentiaries therein was
passed. 4 bill to extend Govern
ment aid by grants of land, for the
construction Of a railroad in Iowa
and Minnesota, was referred The
bill to change the mode of appoint
ing pension agents was discussed.
The amendment requiring all officers
of the Government whose salaries
exceed one thousand dollars to be
confirmed by the Senate was lost.
The bill was then laid aside. and the
bill to regulate the tenure of office
was debated, but without result. An
executive session was held. Ad-
journed.
HoUsE.-A resolution was read
and referred, directing the issue of
certificates of discharge to all volun-
teer commissioned officers who have

UNITED STATES SENATOR.

The Republican caucus on Thurs.
day last, nominated Hon. SIMON CAM
ERoS as the candidate for U. S. Sena
tor, by very decisive vote, which
will be found in the letter of our
Harrisburg correspondent. He was
undoubtedly elected, on Tuesday, but
as we had not yet received the action
of the Legislature, we defer our COM
ments until next week. We shall
then have something to say about the
uniustifable warfare which has been
made upon Gen. Cameron by his op-
pouents.

s@ The Supreme Court of the
United States Monday pronounced
the test-oath of Missouri, and the
test-oath prescribed by Congress for
attorneys who, having taken part in
the rebellion, ask to be re-admitted
to practice, unconstitutional. As,
however, the four judges, including
Chief Justice Chase, who dissented
from the recent decision in the Indi-
ana case, also dissented from the de-
cisions delivered yesterday, it is evi-
dent that we are suffering from q
new Dred Scott experience, and that
partisan views, rather than respect
for fundamental principles of law
and justice, regulate the action of
the court on questions connected

RECONsTRUoTToN.


1t appears that some of the more
intelligent and reasonable of the reb
els in the Southern States, are doing
their utmost to have their respective
states adopt the Constitutional Am
endments, urging that if these am
endments are not speedily sanctioned,
harder conditions will be imposed by
Congress +; and there is apparent
good reason for these fears. Mr.
Durand, and a large number of other
loyal citizens of the rebel states,
have lately petitioned Congress on
this subject, taking strong grounds
against reconstruction on the basis
Of the amendments, alleging, that if
the rebel states are SO admitted, the
loyal union men in them will be en-
tirely powerless, and at the mercy of
of the rebels, as they are now, and
they demonstrate this very clearly.
This memorial has had great infu-
ence, as it should have, on the ma
iority in Congress. Besides this, the
prosecutions of the loyalists in the
rebel states, especially the blacks,
has strong tendency the same way.
In debate lately held in Congress,
Mr.. Stevens read and extract from
the Loyal Georgian newspaper of the
Sth Of December, showing that at
the late Equal Rights Convention held
in Macon, the delegates representing
fifty counties, reported an hundred
and fifty murders ,Oithia the last taoo
months, AND IN No INSTANCE DID THE
CIVIL AUTHORITIES ATTEMPT TO BRING THE
MURDERERs TO JUSTICE.
And in consequence Of the at
tempted revival of slavery in Mary
land, Kentucky and Florida, the low
er House of Congress has directed
its Judiciary Committee to inquire
whether slaves are still sold in the
Southern States. The Constitutions
. Amendment abolishing slavery per
mits it in cases of conviction fol-
crime, and in the States above named
this has been done for trifing acts o.
misdemeanor, trumped up for the ex
F press purpose of selling the adjudg
ed offenders into slavery. These acts
are having their effect upon the coun
try, as well as upon Congress. And
while large majority of the loyal
masses of the nation, were, at the
last election, in favor of re-construc
tion on the basis of the Constitution
al Amendments, the bad conduct Of
the rebels has proven them to be sc
unfit for citizenship, and 80 unsafe tc
the nations quiet, that the belief is
rapidly gaining ground that it will
be extremely unwise to give the reb.
els any political power, either as in
dividuals or States. For these rea
sons, the bill organizing North Caro-
lima, without regard to the presen
State authorities, or the rebels, anc
placing it into the hands of its loya
population, is fast gaining strength
If this State can thus be placed int
the hands Of its loyal people, ant
then brought into the Union again
the same course will be adopted will
the rest of the rebel States.
