1t is significant that two judges who were
the political friends and supporters of Abra-
ham Lincoln, should be made the legal instru-
ments through whom much of his presiden-
tial action should be declared despotic and
unconstitutional. The enc is Judge Davis,
of the supreme court of the United States.
one of Lincoln's appointees, from this state
the other is Judge Lawrence, Of the supreme
court of Illinois. Judge Davis decided that
the arrest, mock military trial and imprison-
ment of Milligan and others, of Indiana, was
usurpation of power in violation of the
constitution, though the proceedings against
the parties were approved by Lincoln, except
in so far as he commuted the sentence by
the usurping tyrants to Imprisonment, instead
ofdeath.
The other case was decided by cur supreme
court few days since, Judge Lawrence an
nouncing the opinion of the court. In that
case it was decided that acts of congress ap
proved by Lincoln, authorizing the arrest by
the military of citizens not in the military
or naval service, were unconstitutional hert
we have some tests of Lincoln's greatness and
craftsmanship, by his own political friends
sitting iu the responsible capacity of Judges
of high judicial tribunals and in that capac
ity, two of them, of undoubted integrity and
ability, in effect declare that he was guilty
oe usurping powers in violation of the con
stisution of his country, by virtue of which hs
held his Office.

: The new state house commissioners, TO-
gether with the house and senate committees
on public buildings, appointed to select q
plan for a new state house at Springfield,
met on Monday and chose that submitted BY
Chicago architect, &c. Cochrane. Twen-
ty-ons designs were entered, bat only twelve
were exhibited TO the committee. The DIFF
ferent architects were allowed ,twenty min.
utes to explain their plans. Senator Reilly, ,one
of the legislative committee denounced the
whole scheme Of building the new sstase
house, and protested against all the proceed
ings as mockery and cheat. He said he
voted for the bill last winter, but he was n ow
against it. He said he had heard it intimat-,
ed that the people of Springfield had spent
$4,000 to get the bill through the ieglsla-
ture. He wonld not believe the story; at
least be never got any of the money, and if
others got it, it was their duty to divide with
him. He refused to vote for either plan.
The edifce, as projected, will cost not less
than $3,OOO,OOO. No action viii be taken
in the matter of erection until the supreme
court has decided the question of legality
now pending. 49,. r.

The New York Times, which stands well
nigh alone among republican journals as
honest and independent enough to see and
criticise the glaring defects in Its own par
ty, speaks in no gentle tone of the shameless
recklessness and lack of craftsmanship which
the majority of the members of congress
display. How many of them, it asks, reflect
fairly the common sense and intelligence
which distinguish us as nation What is
the standard of an assembly the highest de-
partment of which is presided over by an
officer who goes about the country striving
to kindle the class antagonisms of the Old
World, to propagate the doctrine that labor
is an injustice and to pander to. the preju-
dices and ignorance of the most dangerous
classes in the community? Is such a man
fit to preside over the deliberations of an
assembly which we are apt to style the most
perfect law-making body ever devised? The
Times also asks whether the lower house is
a model, where each daily session is opened
with a tawdry stump speech addressed to the
Almighty, followed by wild declamations
from few uncrupulous men, who manage
to caiole or bully their colleagues into fol-
lowing at their heels. Mr. Shanks, of Indi-
ana, brought forward a resolution which en-
bodies the worst faults of our most public
men, endorsing the execution of Maximil.
ian as "eminently right and proper" which
he wanted the house to 60 out of its way to
approve. Mr.. Upton, in the senate, also
wanted "a premium offered for savage Indian
scaIps" This swhat eighteen centuries and
half of christian principles have produced
that in the freest government in the world
based ON the most exalted sentiments, men
fise to urge the readoption of the barbarous
codes which were becoming obsolete before
the time of Christ. 1t is for the people them
selves to consider these things, says the
Times. Dignity and decorum we are not
justified in looking to congress for. Men
do not gather figs from thistles. five send all
the turbulent, noisy, clustering demagogues
to congress upon whom we can lay our
hands, we can only'expeet them to say and
do things of which we shall often be very
much ashamed. And in this we heartily
agree with cur republican contemporary
The remedy is in the hands of the people,
and the sooner they assert their dignity and
common sense, the sooner will this reign OF
violence and ferocity cease to disgrace our
national congress- R#s sksR
