( lYS or OUT OF THE fUNIoR.szC ClhcfJusticc
Chase rendered on Tuesday last with the CON
currencc of majority of his associates in the
Supreme Court, adecision which will challenge
the widest attention. 1t Involves tile verdict
of the Court on the much vcxed questions
whether, after the acts of Secession and Re-
beliion, the Southern States were or were not
States In the Union and whether the existing
governments In the eluhreconstructcd States are
entitled Ia, legal recognition while II intim
atcly Affects, without absolutely undertaking
to decide the consdtutiouality or the Recon-
str,sclion measures Of Congress- The decision
is marked by all the lucidity OF thought and
tcrseness Of expression characteristic of It's all-
thor. II says of the constitutional clauses
quoted against the doctrine of Secession +" II
Is difficult to convey tho idea of indissoluble
unity more clearly than by thosc words, What
can be indssouble IL II perpetual Union made
more perfect Is noty" And II sums up, tho ar,
sument on this point by declaring that-The
Consultation; IN all its provisions, looks to an
mdestrpctblo Uuion composed OF rin,lestruc-
tiblc States, The union bctw een Texas and
the other States was as complete, as perpetual,
and as indissoluble us theunion hetween the
original States. There was no place for re.
consideration, or revocation, except through
revolution, or through consent of the States.
Considered, therefore, as transactions under the
Consultation, the ordinance of Secession adopted
by the convention, and ratified by majority
Of the citizens Of Texas, and oil the acts Of her
Legislature, Intended to give effect TO thnt or
dnance, were absolutely null They were ut
tcrly without operation In law. The obli-
gs!ons OF tile State, as member Of the UpIon,
aud of cyr;,S cltizenof The united States, ref
mained perfect anu nnimpaircda Unnecessarily
follows thdt the State IA not cease to he, a
State, nor her citizens to be cil:Ey:sof the Uni1

Indiana Railroads held recently, meeting in
Toledo 10 consider plan and terms of con-
solidation Should the arrangement as con-
templated be perfected, the new organization
will be knownas the Lake Shore and Michi
gan Southern Railway, and extend from Erie
to Chicago, a distance of 45l miles, and be un-
der one management, with headquarters at
Cleveland. A call has been issued for the
stockholders Of the Michigan Southern and
Northern Indiana to meet in Toledo on the
2Sth inst, when the plan of consolidation will
be submitted TO them. On the 9Th prox. the
stockholders Of both companies are to meet in
Chicago and take action upon the question:
Such an arrangement will make this potent
and controlling line, and place 1t upon such u
footing as TO render successful rivalry doubtful
and difficult This statement of facts gather
ed from our exchanges, seems to render the
statement from the Tribune published last
week, that the Erie company had effected a
temporary arrangement with the Mich. South
ern, little doubtful. The hopes of the Lake
Shere stockholders that began to droop in
view Of the first statement, will be revived
with the prospects now presented. .....

The HUMAN FIGuRE.-The proportions
of the human figure are strictly mathemati-
cal. The whole figure is six times the
length of the foot. Whether the form be
slender or plump, the rule holds good, and
deviation from it is departure from the
highest beauty in proportion. The Greeks
made all their statues according TO this
rule. The face, from the highest point Of
the forehead. where the hair begins, to
the chin, is one-tenth of the whole statue.
The hand from the wrist to the middle
finger is the same. From the top Of the
chest to the highest paint in the forehead
is seventh. If the length Of the face
from the roots of the hair to the chin be
divided into three equal parts, the first di-
yison determines the place where the eye
brows meet, and the second the place Of
the nostrils. The height from the feet to
the top Of the head is the same as the dis
tance from the extremity Of the fingers
when the arms are extended.

True q I'd Touching.

A young man and his wife wcro
preparing to attend Christmas par.
ty at tho house of friend somo milos
distant. lHEY,. ut5irrs7s
"Hcnry, my dear husband, don't
drink too much at the party to-day
you will promise me, won't you
said slo, putting her hand on his arm,
and raising her eyes to his face with a
pleading glance.
"No, Millic, l will not you may
trust me-" and he wrapped his infant
boy in soft blanket, and thcy do
seconded.
The horses were soon prancing over
the turf, and pleasant conversation
bcguilcd the way.
,"Now don't forget your PROMISE"
whispered the young wife, as she pass-
cd up the steps.
Poor thing she vas the wife Of Il
man who loved to look upon the wine
when red. But his love for his wife,
and their labc whom they both idol
lied, kept him back, and it was not
often that he joined in Bachannalian
rcvcricS.
The party passed off pleasantly, tho
time Of departing drew near, and the
wife descended from the urpcr cham
Der TO join her husband.
A pang shot through the trusting
heart as she met him, for lie had bro
ken his misc--hc was intoxicated.
Silently they rode homcward, sayo
when tho drunken man broke into
snatchcs Of songs, or unmcaning
laughter. But the wife rode on, her
babe pressed closely to her gricvcd
heart.
Give me tho baby, NIillic, con't
trust you with him." said he as he ap-
preached II dark and somewhat swell
len stream.
After some hesitation, she rcsignod
her first born, her darling babe, close
ly wrapped in the great blanket, to
his arms. Ovcr the dark watcrs tho
noble stocd safely bore them, and
when they reached the bank, tho
mother asked for the child.
With much care and tenderness lie
placed the bundle in her arms when
she claspcd it to her bosom no babo
was thcrc! 1t had slipped from tho
blanket, and the drunken father knew
it not.
4 wilk shrick aroused him, and ho
turned just in time to see the little
rosy face rise one moment above the
da.k waves, and then sink forever.
This is no fiction, but the plain
truth. The parties were known by
the friends Of the writer, and it SHOULD
be warning to those who indulge il,
intoxicating drinks, and resist tho
pleading of loving wives.
