SUPREME COURT.
Important Decision.

Chief Justice Chase rendered, on the
18th Of April. with the concurrence o:
y majority Of his associate Judges. in
the Supreme Court Of tho United
States, . decision that should attract
the attention OF all our citlzsns. II,
embraces the verdict Of that high
Court upon the greatly agitatcd quea-
ton whether, after tho acts Of Srccs-
sion passed BY the Southern States.
they were In or out Of the Union, and
whether the present forms Of govern
ments in the unreconstructed States
should DO entitled to recognition ;
while It in reality cmbodics, though
not an actual decision on the question.
the conStitutionality Of tho reconstruc-
ton measures Of Congress. In refer
ring 10 the constitutional clauses
against the doctrines Of secession, it
says: at is difficult to convey the
idea Of iudissoluble unity moro clearly
than BY these words. What can be in
dissolublc if perpetual Union made
more perfect is not" And conccm-
tratcs the argument on this point by
affirming that tho Constitution, in all
its provisions, looks to ON indestrurti.
bic Union, composed Of indestruct:blc
States. = The union be.
tween Texas aud the other States was
as complete, as perpetual, and as in
dissoluble rs tho union between the
original States. There was no place
for reconsideration, or revocation, cX.
cept through revolution, or through
consent OF the States. Considered,
therefore, as transactions under the
Constitution, the ordinance of scccs.
sion adopted by tho Convention, aud
ratified By majority Of the citizens OF
Texas, and all tho acts of her Lcgisla'
ture, intended to give effect to that
ordinance, were absolutely null. They
were utterly without operation in law
The obligations of the State, as mem
Der of the Union, and Of evory either
Of the State, as q citizen Of the United
States, remained perfect and unim
paired. 1t necessarily follows thatth'
State did not cease to be State, no
hor citizons to be citizens of tn
Union" But the decision goes on AM
says, that" all admit that during thi

From the Chemistry OF Common Life.
In the life of most persons period
arrives when the stomach no longer
digests enough of the ordinary ele-
ments of food to make up for natural
daily waste of the bodily substance.
The size and weight of the body be-
gin to diminish, more or less percept-
ibly. At this time tea comes in as a
medicine to arrest the waste, and to
keep the body from falling away so
fast, and thus to enable less energetic
powers of digestion still to supply as
much as is needed TO repair the wear
and tear of the solid tissues.
No wonder, therefore, that tea
should be favorite. on the one hand,
with the poor. whose supply of SUBJ
stantial food 10 scanty; and on the
other, with the aged and infirm,
especially of the feebler sex, whose
powers of digestion and whose bodi-
ly substance have together begun to
fail. Nor is 1t surprising that the
aged female. who has barely enough
OF weekly income to buy what are
called the common necessaries Of
life. should yet spend a portion of
her small gain In purchasing her
ounce of tea. She can live quite as
well on less common food. when she
takes her tea with IT; while she feels
higher, at the same time more cheer
full and filter for her work, because Of
the indulgence.

many sharp things in his own pecu.
liar style. but we think he never tlid
squeeze quite 80 much nsnsenslcal
good sense, In. an -.artiele Of thiA
length, before:
liz husbands could be took on trial
az Irish cooks are, tew-thirds of
of them would probably be returned !;
but there don't seem tew be emmy
law for this. Therefore girls, wa
will see that after you git q man, you
hay to keep him, even If yu lose on
him. Consequently, III yu hav got
emmy cold vittie in the house try
him on them, once in while dur
ing securing season, and liz he swal-
lers them well, and sez he will take
sum moro, he liz u man who, when
blue Monday Gums will wash we'll.
Don't marry a pheller who liz nj.
wuz telling how hiz mother duz
things. It liz az hard tew suit theze
men az IL Is TO wean young one.
fla yung man kan beat yu play
ing on a pianDer, and kant hear O

count oy the musick that liz in him
he might answer to tend babe. but il
yu set him hoeing out the garden,
you will find that yu hav got tew do

But j must say one thing, girls, or
spile. If yu kan find bright eyed
