lowing bills we're introduced: \ bill for erect

The bill introduced by Mr.. Hughes,
Of Highland, which has passed the
house, and will soon. become a law,
provides that no citizen, inhabitant or
resident of this State shall be sent to
any place whatever out Of this State
for trial or punishment for any crime
or offense Committed within the State,
and affixes severe penalties, including
disqualification to hold any office of
trust or profit, for violation Of the pro
visions Of this act, by United Stats
MarshaIs and other officers This bill,
which is Of course designed to cover
cases like that of Nallandigham and
Others, is an assertion Of the odiOus
and exploded doctrine Of State sover-
eighty. .-'
The constitution and laws Of the
United States are supreme, and the re-
public, in the exercise of its sovereign
ty, has the right and authority to pun
ish offenders against its laws wherev-
er and in whatever manner it sees fit.
If this State or any other shall be array
ed in insurrectiOn against the United
States, so that insurgents or traitors
cannot with safety beimprisOned with
in its limits, must hesupreme govern
ment be prevented from transferring
its, enemies to any place of security
within its Jurisdiction? How would
such a law have operated in many Of
the States during the rebellion? And
how will it now operate in the case of
cOunterfeiteTs and other offenders who
violate United States laws? 90
We believe in State sovereignty, that
is the sovereignty of the only State in
the true sense of that word that exists
within our national boundaries, the
sovereignty of the republic Itself
This United States, like the United
Kingdom of Great Britain, has rights
which it has asserted and will cOntin-
ue to assert to the end of time. When
it fails in this duty, its existence will
end in time. In the exercise of its
sovereign authority, it will pass I'M
noticed all such State laws that under
take to define its own powers and pre-
rOgatives.-TColumbus journal.

ADemOcratic Sentiment,

The La Crosse Democrat has larg-
er circulation than any Democratic
paper in the United States. This fact
proves that a very large proportion
of those who call themselves Demo-
Gratis approve its sentiments. Here is
one of its latest expressions; itappear-
ed in that paper on the 10Th of April
last: a#
ado you blame us when wesay that
God was Just in sending John Wilkes
Booth, on that dark Good Friday
night, three years ago-the darkest
and gloomiest in American history
to strike the traitor down, and liber-
ate the white freemen Of America from
the yoke of a despot? God is Just.
He struck the tyrant Lincoln from ex-
'istence at an hour when the country
could no longer bear the burden Of
