the subject with sadness" Considering that
nearly every party involved in this business is
Republican, Greeley's sadness is natural
enough, but his insinuations are as mean az
his own nature. The old beggar would have
had nothing to say if money had purchased
conviction, or if the loss Of the Postmaster
Generalship had not been involved in the de-
feat o; impeachment.
The particulars Of horrible affair have
just come from Orange Courthouse, Va, inn
plicating Baptist preacher named Reuben D.
Hemden in the seduction and d*ubsequent muir
der of Miss Lumsdsn and her unborn infant.
Miss Lums5en, it appears, lived at his house
and disappeared about the oath of April. a
week or two since rumors OF foul play on the
part of Remden was circulated. he then pub
lshcd card threatening his defamers. with
the vengeance of the law. A day or two since,
the body OF Miss Lumsden was discovered un-
der pile Of logs near Hemden's house, and
the fact was at the same time disclosed that
the infant had been cut from her body. Anote
from Hemden, proposing an elcpement, was
found on her person. He has been arrested,
and will be held till this most horrible affair is
thoroughly sifted.

CHARLES TO N
MONDAY MORNING, JUNE 1, 1858.
Snow, by st. Paul. the Work Goes Brave
ly On.''

The Imprisonment of Mr. WooLLEY fol-
refusing to answer the questions of the Con.
gressional Corruption Committee is imper.
tant on account Of the principle. far more
than on account of the man. 1t matters
but little who WooLLEY is, or what new
mare's.nest Congress expects to find; it is
sufficient to know that anirresponsible COM
mittee now tingles STANToN's little bell, and
that citizen Of the United States is held
in confinement, in direct violation of the
clauses of the constitution, WI =. declare
the right of the people to be SECURE in their
persons and papers, and that NO man shall
be deprived Of liberty or property without
due process of law.
Such proceeding was not unlocked for.
Congress, in assuming to itself the power
to override the fundamental Law Of. the land,
asserts its supreme authority over the per-
son and property of every man within the
limits of the United States. The powers Of
Congress are delegated to committee of
vicious, disappointed and unscrupulous men,
and Mr.. WooLLEY is imprisoned as warn
ing of what the American people may ex-
pect if they dare to gainsay the DEGREES
of their. own faithless servants.
Despotism of the most infamous kind is
now upon the people. Congress is deter
mined to be king; GRANT will be the willing
satrap of WAsHBuRNE, BOUTWELL, and WADE,
and the decree of the many-headed Con-
gressional beast will, if needs be, find fit
support in the bsyonets of % negro soldiery.
The bastile has already received its first
victim, and in rapid succession must come
the rack, the wheel and the thumb screw,
the organization of Committees of Public
Safety, q rehearsal Of the horrors Of the
greatest and bloodiest of revolutions. II
these things are not to be, now, indeed, is
it timo that the manhood of the country
should assert its rights. In the person Of
one man the liberties of the whole nation
are threatened; the conduct Of one man has
made it evident that Radical Congressional
rule is white slavery and an utter destruc-
ton of every principle of freedom. But
the disease is not yet beyond remedy. The
people still have the power, if they will
only exert it; and if the North and the
West are SO tied to their money bags and
fields Of grain that they will not dare and
do, they are but tempting the tyrants to
new violence and making certain the arri-
val of the hour when the whole people,
arms in hand, shall drive the traitors from
their seats, and visit upon their heads the
punishment which their perjury and deceit
deserve.
