tle MOI u oT0Fe, ahu encouragement from
Prussia and RuSsil, thinks itself now in q
position TO act on lis own account. This
result was not difficult to f~oresee, and
this is precisely what with good reason
makes the European Cabinets anxious,
even those ones who have s@trlven, in the
hope of serving their own ambitious
views, TO prepare it and render it newt
able.
LA Correspondence du Nord- EST
All the south of Russia is transformed
into il vcritable arsenal; the fortresses Of
Bender, Oczakow, and Nikolaieff are being
armed in haste with cannon on a new
system, and depots of ammunition and
arms for an army of 200, 900 men are
being established there; the regiments
which are TO compose that army are ar
irving little by little, either by the rail-
way from Kief to Odessa, which has Just
been completed, but which is only used
for the transport of troops, or by sea in
the case of thoSe who come from the eau
CaSuS.

language of the superior Russian emf loy6s,
civil and military, leaves no doubt as to
the intention of the Government, for they
say openly that the moment has come to
avenge the defeat of the Crimea, and that
Russia is resolved on attacking Turkey
aud Austria, while her ally, Prussia, will
keep France in check on the Rhine.
| am assured that, all along the Rou-
manian bank of the Danube, Bulgarian
Greek bands, formed and commanded by
Russian officers, are all ready to invade
the Turkish territory.
According to the advices the Porte has
received from the Governor of Bulgaria,
they expected an incursion of those bands
about the goth of January; but the severe
cold during the FAST few days has raised
insurmountable obstacles to attempts of
this nature, and as the Danube is en-
numbered with ice and communications
are interrupted, we are without positive
information about what is going on In
Roumania. The situation, however, is
pretty grave there. Do not be surprised
If a storm bursts out soon on the Danube.
The people who know Bulgaria we'll
assure me that the inhabitants of that
province will not take part in the lnsur-
r%ection; but as the Porte has armed the
Circassians and the Bashi- Bozuks of the
vilayet of the Danube, we may fear, in
case of an invasion, that these half-savage
soldiers may commit excesses which
might end in exasperating that pacific po-
pulation even.

itself amongst the Mussulmans of Con-

He introduced into it a fermenl of insub-
ordination which causes the Government
great anxiety, so much so that at the pre-
sent moment there are no longer but two
regiments on whose fidelity Prince Charles
can count. All the others are gained over
for the revolution which is preparing.
In this con %uncture, a friendly Power,
interested in The tranquility of Roumania,
would have thought it well, we are told,
to make overtures to Prince Charles to
offer his Government armed support in
case Of interior Disturbances or Insurrec-
ton. If the party of action wished to
seize Office at any cost, and if the Govern
ment did not find a sufficient point d'appui
in the conservative forces of the country,
and could not or dared not accept The
help of an intervention from without, say
our correspondents, Prince Charles was
advised to withdraw and address to Eu-
rope "A manifesto, in which all the facts
would be explained, as well as the motives
for his temporary withdrawal.
The party which is agilating at Blu
charest believes itself all the more certain
of success as it has prepared everything
at Athens for IL revolutionary crisis. The
kind of deadlock in which King George
finds himself, who does not dare, in the
presence of the warIike excitement of
mems minds, to accept the declaration of
the Conference, and also at the same time
understands the impos>ibility OLA struggle
against Turkey, supported by the assent
of the great Powers, appears to the revo-
lutionary party an excellent opportunity
to effect a coup after its own fashion, and
thus SETH motion all the inSurrectionary
elements which have been organized in
the East during the last two years. 1t
promises King George the support Of all
The revolutionary forces, and strives to
drag him into war.

in the sense contemplated by the
Supreme Court in its decisions
heretofore? Mr.. Hoar indicates
that it is not, "a thing very difficult
of comprehension by ordinary un-
derstandings, and then proceeds to
rest his case upon the reconstruc-
lion act of Congress of March 1,
1867, establishing military govern
ernments in the ''rebeI States" etc.
Upon the constitution ality of these
acts, or any part Of them, the gu
preme Court has not yet decided,
and perhaps never will have oeca-
sion to do so now. The celebrated
McArdle case, It viii be remembered, |
was dismissed by the Supreme
Court for want of jurisdiction. Afc- /
Ardle was editor Of E- Mississippi |
paper, and was arrested and tried
by military commission in 1867 for
printing ''seditious articles in the
Vieksburg Times The United
States Circnit Court in Mississippi
granted writ of habeas corpus, bnt
held that the reconstruction act,
which it considered to be involved, /
was constitutional, thus deciding
that the prisoner was subject TO ar
rest and to trial before q military
commission. He was, therefore, re-
manded, and the case came into the
United States Supreme Court on
an appeal from this decision, with
the result above, the court not un-;
dertaking to decide the question of
constitutionality. That which at
one time would have been looked
upon, especially in matters in which
theliyes and liberties of great COM
munities are concerned, as the first
and most vital point to be settled,
is still held in allegiance, and the
will of Congress, until the Supreme
Court shall decide any particular
statute unconstitutional, remains
the supreme law. 1t needed no ar.
gument of Mr.. Hoar to establish
that, under the reconstruction acts
Of Congress, military tribunals in
Texas, Virginia and Mississippi
have the power to take away any
mans life or liberty until the unre-
States adopts constitue
tons in conformity with the recon
acts; and in addition he
might have added, as later re-
guirement, the fifteenth amendment
10 the constitution of the United v
States. The question of constitu-
however, notwithstand-
ing the Attorney Generals opinion,
IS one which has received the sane
ion of very few juriats, though the
Supreme Court has not ventured to
affirm what ought long ago to have h
been ammo unced, if a majority of
hat tribunal believed it. The Su-
oreme Court said in the Milligan
Ease, "a guaranty of freedom was
broken when Milligan was denied
rial by jury" The war is not ended,
,ut actually prevails in Texas, else
he same guaranty of freedom must
De broken in regard to Weaver.
