The Little Rock Ark-) Gazette saws
that a, the late elc'ion on the adoption OF
the Constitution the Radicals claimed 4
total majority Of l,679. but in securing
that majority frauds of the gravest char
acter were practiced. The Gozette says
that the Democratic Central Committee
has received sufficient accurate data 10
show that the constitution was actually
voted down By clear majority of 6,342,
and to establish their claims the Central
Committee have forwarded to the Com.
manding- General of the District a large
msss of evidence, showing that balIo, boxes
had been stuffed, that persons disqualified
from age, sex, and residence had voted
that the privilege Of franchise had been
exercised once, twice, or more, by
persons at different places; that electors,
iullv entitled to vote, had been unjnstly
cut of that ballots against the constitu-
ton had been fraujulently destroyed or
changed together with other information
valuable to the military authorities, should
they BE- actuated by desire to do justice
in the premises.

PREsBYTERIAx REUSIoS.-For thirty
one year. the Presbyteriahs of the United
States have been divided and known re-
spectively as the New and Old School,
but general Convention of delegates from
various divisions adopted, last year, a basis
for reunion, and il is row being discussed
and acted upon in the subordinate synOds
and presbyteries whose ratification is ne
cessary. The Presbytery Of Western
New York recently met at Buffalo, and
unanimously agreed to the proposed pan.
Their example will probably be generally
followed throughout the country, and as
the leading clergymen on both sides are in
favor of the measure a great breach o'
thirty years standing will at last be heal
ed. The abrogatioA of slavery and the
prevalence Of more liberal views respect
ing abstract questions of theology have
materially paved the way for the unity Of
the denomination.

was decided failure, and did not pay ex
penscs The Rev. Byron Sunderland, whose
church Grant has joined since he became
candidate for President, rendered hi:
services to open the concert with prayer.
He PRAYED that the Almighty would for
ever deprive the Democratic party Of pow
er, mentioning it by name. We wonder
what Grants pastor thinks Of the efficacy
Of his prayers since the elections in Con.
necticut and elsewhere. Perhaps he may
come to The conclusion that be and the
Almighty differ somewhat 10 the estimate

Political History.

What Jefferson said in the case of mn un-
constitutional law (the Sedition Acts) is
set forth in the following letter to Mrs.
President Adams, written in 1904:
Il discharge every person under punish
nent and prosecution under the sednion
Law, because | considered, and now con-
slder, that law TO be nuliiy as absolute
and as pslpable as il Congress bad order
ed us TO fall down and worship the golden
image, ard that ii was as much nv dutv
10 arrest its execution in every State as it
would have been 10 have rescued from the
fiery furnace those who should have been
cast into II for refusing 70 worship the i'm
age. Ii was accordingly done in every in
stance, without asking what the offenders
had done, or against whom they had Of
Tended, but whether the pains they were
suffering were Inflicted under the Pretend
ed sedition law"
And in another letter be replies to some
observations as 10 the Freedom of the Ex-
ecutive about-tbe coDsti,utionality of laws
"You seem TO think it devolved on the
Judges to decide on the validity OF the Sc
dition Law, but nothing 10 the Constitution
has given them the night to decide for the
Executive, more than for the Executive 10
decide for them. Both magistrates are
equally Independent in The sphere of action
assigned to them. The judges, believing
the law constitutional, bad right to pass
sentence Of fine or imprisonment, because
the power is placed in their hands BIZ the
Constitution but the Executive, believ.
ing the law TO be unconstitutional, was
bonnd 10 remit the execution Of it. because
that power had been confined to him by
the Constitution, that instrument Iuterd ng
that the coordinate branches should be
checks upon each other But the opinion
that gives The judges the rights 10 admin
lster what laws are constitutional ard what
are not, not only for themselves in their
own sphere Of action. bat for the legisia-
tive and executive also, in their spheres,
wonld render the judiciary despotic and
tyraDical
The opinion Of Mr Madison is equally
borough, and 10 the same effect.

Ducks AND DRAKEs WITH THE PEOPLES
MoxEY By THE MoSGPEL IMPEACHERs.-
The Impeachment trial will cost the work
ing men a round sum. 1t will be found
in the bill. 1t will count in the tax-levies.
1t is stated that The printing of the tickets
of admission cost no less than $4,000. The
expense of the trial is set down at near
100000. Certain witnesses cost the coun-
try $1,000 each. Gen. Rousseau netted
some $4,000, good job. The sum of ten
cents mile and ten dollars day, was al
lowed for attendance. THIS is nice array
of items to make the taxpayers of the
country sweat for. This is beautiful sum
total to fleece from the already overbur-
dened wealth producers. Are the revolu-
tionary spirits at the seat of government
to be allowed to 60 an from one act of in
fanny TO another, without being rebuked by
an outraged people, too long patient under
growing despotism! Rise, independent,
honest volers-strike through the ballot
box, and hurl these miscresnts from power.

SPAr BETwEES SESAToRs DRAKE AND
FEssESDES.-The WoriFs Washington
correspondent says 1T seems that in the
secret session there was quite little spat
between Fessenden ard Drake The for
mer asked to postpone the verdict for
some time, in which to read over the min
utes of the trial, especially to look into
some legal points raised by Bingham
Drake said it was strange that such mas
ter-spirit as Fessehden should want time,
when be (Drake,) the lil.lest man in the
Senate, was ready. This appeared to him
unnatural. Fessehden replied somewhat
warmly. He disclaimed being a master
spirit Of the Senate, but regarded Drake
as better authority when he drfued his
own position than when he defined the
position Of others. Drake sharply retort-
ed that he had been honest in bis remark
about the Maine Senator being a great
man. But he confessed now that he was
great only in his arrogance. If reports IN
circulation were correct, what be said OF
himself, that he (Drake,) was the littlest
man in the Senate, would soon be true OF
the Senator from Name. This caused a
decided sensation. and Sumner took the
floor and spoke for half an hour for max
ing an immediate verdict.

THE Only CURE.-The disgraceful
personalities 10 the Rnmp House of Rep
resentatives-especially those between
Washhurne and Donelly, on Saturday
the Herald tells US, naturally result
from the Jacobin violence and usurpation
of the radical faction in power, and there
is little hope of change, we fear, until
the people become aroused and ill the next
elections send another and better set oi
men to Washington

WhensRadical politicians tell laboring
men that they pay no taxes, the latter
could ask in return, how much more they
pay now for everything they eat, drink,
and wear. than they did in good old Dem.
ocratic times. Ifit costs you twelve dol
lars week to support and clothe your
family now, which it formerly cost only six,
do you not pay tax Of three hundred and

The Inpeachment.

The case was closed on Wednesday, so
far as the managers and the defense are
concerned. 1t now remains with the Sen
ate. 1t may be decided this week, or it
may be held in abeyance until after the
Chicago Brevct negro Convention.
There is a strong impression afOat, now,
that the verdict will be adverse to the i'm
peacbers. This opinion is predicated oD
the following telegram

peace and quiet is certain. Wade and

Decision REGARDING TIE Re ISSUE OF
PArESTs.-An important decision as TO
Efhe re issue of patents has been made by
the Supreme Court of the District Of Col
umbia The Commissioner of Patents had
established rule that all application for
the reissue of surrendered patents should
be publicly advertised for thirty days, aud
that testimony might be taken adversely to
the claimant. The assignees Of the Reich
man patent for an improvement in lamps
surrendered their patent fQr reissue under
the rule above mentioned !; the application
was published, and testimony taken, under
which the reissue was refused. From this
refusal an appeal was taken, and after the
hearing, Judge Fisher pronounced the rnle
illegal and Unauthorized, and ordered the
issue of the patent.
