Military improvements.

General AMEs, commanding the State
of Mississippi, has ordered his subordin-
ate officers under no circumstances to
obey any writ of habeas corpus. 1t used
to he regarded as one of the distinctive
festures of our Government, that in no
emergency could the military be made
superior to the civil power. That old
fogy and altogether intolerable notion
we are now happily rid of. The civil
izing and liberalizing tendencies of the
war have brought US to that better and
higher state from which we can view
with patriotic pride the overthrow OF
the worn out safeguards of personal
liberty and the substitution of the plain'
practical, simple and satisfactory rule
of the bayonet in their stead. If Cen
eral AMEs desires to thrust some con-
tumacious platter into guard-house
for not employing worthy and "loyaP
negroes, the General is at liberty to do

Courts and iuries do not stand in his
way. If he wants to crafty harmless
taste for fun by hanging or shooting
some brawling ex-confederate without
the intermediate nuisance of trial, he
is at perfect liberty thus to amuse him
self. There are none to say unto him,
"Why or what dost thoup In all the
royal privileges of Government he is
Independent and free to pursue
his royal pleasure with the property,
people and other appurtenances of Mis-
sissippi. When we reflect upon the vast
simplification in the mode of ruling
and exercising authority the benefcent
doiugs of the war have brought about,
we wonder at the stupidity which so
long prevented these military improve
ments upon "the best Government the
sun ever shone on"

An Extra Session

STONES wants an extra session of Con-

see. His purpose is to set the State
back on the Georgia P!Sn and gave her a
Jew years OF meditation and repentance
and modification of the flesh under the
gentle sway of himself, BALDY STOKES.
He says that the Tennessee Legislature
will 60 back on the Fifteenth Amend
ment. To prevent so disastrous con-
summation, he warts Congress to come
together about September Goth, and by
a salutary reconstruction of reconstruc-
tion, head off the Legislature, which
does not meet until October lst. As
Congress does not seem to have much
else to do but to legislate Radicals into
office, it might be well to fall in with
the STOKES proposition. Then if Ohio
and Pennsylvania should happen to 60
wrong they could be set right in a
speedy and satisfactory manner. There
is nothing like preparing for all emer-
geneies.

TIE remark of STOKES that the Re.
publican party of Tennessee has gone
to Tophet is worth consideration. In
the first place it explains the sudden
disappearance of the party in question
The late Tennessee election showed
them to be gone somewhere. They were
not at home to vote for STOKES. In the
next place, no man would be more likely
than STOKES TO be able to give informa-
ton concerning the new or the old ten
ants of that heated locality. In the
last place, as fresh fuel makes hotter
fire, we get from this important state
ment an inkling as to the cause of this
roasting August weather. Yes, that's it /;
and STOKES on his last trip left the gate
open.

THE wOman-suftragites give it as the
chief reason for female suffrage that
the ballot would enable unmarried or
widowed women "to obtain honorable
and remuneratiye employment" OF
course every male voter has this sort OF
employment" right at his command,
and of course the ballot enables him to
command it. The most ignorant voter
imaginable, the man who don't "know
hawk from hand-saw, must accord
ing to the advocates of female suffrage,
be able to control the labor market, to
dictate It's prices and select the first and
fattest things for himself. If not, then
the ballot will not enable women tC

I,atfer-Day Wonders,

A certain wise man had occasion to
remark some centuries ago, that there
was nothing new under the sun. Doubt
less the remark was quite true of mat
ters and things in his day; but had he
been a living witness of the political
gymnastics of our generation, he would
have found reason to modify, if not to
change entirely, his position. For ex-
ample, the Massachusetts, Democrats
have nominated JOHN QUINCY ADAMS
for Governor of their State. How will
that do for the phenomenal department I
Then he has accepted in speech pledg-

The chief objection that reflective

The chief objection that reflective
men can make and which probably has
done most towards rendering unpopular,
with scholars and thinkers, the common
wheelbarrow, is that while both hands
are occupied with the handles, the nose
is left entirely exposed, especially in
"fy time," to vicious attacks and an-
noying and vexatious affiliations from
all manner of insects. Much stoical
philosophy and some contortions of
couDtenance are required to rush bar
row load of cord fodder steadily over
knoll, with some persistent entomology
cal specimen, that one can't even have
the satisfaction of putting the Latin
name to, buzzing alternately in either

Went frem Washington, some OF the
papers think that the President and Cab
met ought always to be at their posts,
and that their absence is very much
out OF place. The truth is, however,
that none of the elements of this Ad-

place as when in the places to which
fckls fortune and the folly of the Re-
publican party have assigned them.
