orial in the Columbus Morning Journal
one day last week:
DISPOSED OF.
We are rejolced to hear that the bill Will ch
passed the Lower House of Congress- restricting
the constitutional powers Of the Supreme Court,
will probably be killed In the Senate Judiciary
committee. We are not aware that there are
any Republicans In the Senate who are In favor
ofthis preposterous bill There are certainly
none In Ohio. SO we shall have one load less to
carry.
The bill above spoken Of, requires a
majority Of two thirds of the judges Of
the Supreme Court to declare an act of
Congress unconstitutional. Is there
anything wrong in that7 A jury of
twelve men must be unanimous in their
verdict when sitting in the U. s.
Courts, before they can convict a man
for counterfeiting five cent piece; yet
five judges can declare an act of Con-
gress void, and say that one hundred
and sixty lawyers in Congress, who
have sworn to support the Constitution
of the United States, have committed
perjury, Eminent lawyers like Be1ja-
min r. Butler of Massachusetts, VIM.
Pitt Fessenden of Maine, Samuel Shell
labarger and John A. Bingham of Ohio,
and scores of others, will take an oath
to support the Constitution, and then
pass an act, which five or six judges
can set aside as being in violation Of
the constitution. And who are these
wise judges Not half so eminent as
the Members of Congress-
The rebels fully expect to set aside
all the reconstruction acts of Congress
by decision of FIVE judges of the Su-
preme Court. The McArdle case,
which is to test the matter, has already
been advanced on the docket by these
old fogy rebel judges, and will be heard
early in March. ! would modestly ask
the Journal where these judges get the
power to annul the acts Of the repre-
Sentatiyes ofthe peoplei Here is all
the Constitution says about the Supreme
Court

April has searched the winter land,
And found her pstted flowers againj
She kissed them TO unfold their leaves,
She coaxed them with her sun and rain,
And 1lled the grass with grecs content,
And made The weeds and clover vain.
Her fairies climbed the naked trees,
And Sc: green caps on every stalk
Her primroscs peep bashfully
From borders of the garden walk:
And in the rcddencd maple-tops
Her blackbird gosslps sit and talk.
She grects the patient ey6Fgreens,
She gets store Of ancient gold,
Gives tasselled presents TO the breeze,
And teaches rivors songs Of old
Then shakes the trees with stolen March winds
And laughs 70 hear the cuckoo scold.
Sometimes, % fret the sober sun,
She pulls the clouds across hls face: nf
Bat finds snow-drifl in ihc woods,
Grows meek agaIn, Aid ptays hia graeea
Waits till the last white wreath is gone,
And DROPS arbaiusln tho place. e..
Her erocuses aud sioiets
Give all the world gay Good yearf''
Tail iiiscs grow tired Or greeh,
Add get themselves parpIe gear gt
And Tiny budsslha, lic anlsep
On hifl assi Ecld Der saasm6as hear. fs.
She rocks The saucy meadsweeaps
The sunsc,'s hcariS anew shr dygs.
She Wills The dask of deepest eood,
With vague, sweet suashInS and surprise
Add wakes the periwinklcs up
To watch hsF Nilh iheir wIds, blae eyek
Atlasi she deems her work 4 dsne,
And aods a wilew tockias chair,
Done spectaeiss of apple buds,
kerehisf asd cap of aimeRds rare,
And siis, yery grandmother,
shifting her faashinc- aecdles, there,
Asd when she sees ihs deeper suns
That usher IN ,ha happy Mag,
She sighs 10 thi"k her time is past
AHd Rerps because she eannot stay,
Aad Leaves her tears upon The ssass,
And iurns her face. aad gsides away.

In seven years ten States haveibeen.
ruined aimillion Of men have persisted
by war, seven taousand million of fweaIth
destroyed, and debt cont acted which Z
has 10 parallel in history, when the li
timoini which itgwas ipcurfed is taken
into the account. - Thisfs the evil fruit
Of bad governing; hut bitter as it is,
posterity may profit by reading the sad
lesson Of d people who trusted their
welfare in the hands of men untitled for
tho trust. What has caused all this2
A departure from the principles, teach.
ers, aud examples Of The founders OF
the Republic. Twelve years ago a par
" arose which planted itselGnpon the
false and pernicious doctrine of the ab-
solute equality Of races and Of meu.-
Cautious at 6rst, il protested only oppo-s posl
sition to the extcntion Of slavery and
exclusion from alrthe territory or the,
United States not included in the limits
Of the statos whore slavery did already
exist. Failing in It's FIRST attempt to
get possession and control Of the GOV.
efnment, in 1850 Il renewed It's efforts,
and nominated a man forPresident who
declared Chat the States could not exist
half slave, aud half free, and who, of
course, was pledged By the utterance Of
opinion at least, 70 cause them all to
become free, through the actioh Of the
Federal Government, and 10 wiolStiona
Of the Constitution and laws of tho,
States. Owing TO the divisions in the
Democratic party, il triumphed, aud
flushed With success aud greedy for the
exercise Of power, IL needed not thel
mutterihgs ofithe9gathering storm, res
fused to listen 10 the apprehension Of,
those whose fears had. become aroused,
whose interests woro endangered, and
whose safety was thfeafcncd4by thnti
success, Dsregarding the example of
the fathers aud founders OF the Repub-
llc, the representatives Of that party
spurned all compromise Of differences
and refused 20 give any guarantees for
the protection OF person and property
aud claimed absolute obedieuceito their
will, as it should be manifested in leg,
islaiiye and executive action. War
was the consequence This party
waged three wars at one and tho same
sime. A. war against the Southern
stales,a war against their political op-
ponenis, aud a war against the Consti-.
tuition Of the United States. In the
prosecution Of these wars they were
guilty Of almost every offence for thes
commission Of whichlour fathers do,
elarcd their independence Of the Brit
ish crown, aud made war to secure that
Independence. M v LMlolI.a
