PRUssLAN PLAN OF ARRANGEMENT.
II was proposed In this that during the first fifteen
days after the cessation OF active hostities French
officials should be permitted by the Prussians to
pass freely between Paris and Tours, and between
the chief towns OF the provincial departments, SO
as to arrange the prellminarea for the holding Of
the French elections.
When the election prcliminaries had been perfected
complete armistce OF the duration OF forty-eight
hours would be Proclaimed all over the territory Of
France so as to admit Of perfectly free election by
an unrestricted vote.
The condition would then, after the expiration
Of the forty eight hours return to that which ex-
listed under the first, or incomplete, armistice.

may have been elected to journey to Paris assemble

THE ABUSE OF POWER.

Extract from President Jackson's Farewell Address,
''1t is well known that there have al
ways been those among US who wish to
enlarge the powers of the General Gov
eminent, and experience would seem to
indicate that there is a tendency on the
part of this Government to overstep the
boundaries marked out for it by the Con-
stitution. The legitimate authority is
abundantly sufficient for all the purp oses
for which it is created, and its powers
being expressly enumerated, there can be
no justification for claiming anything be-
yond them. Every attempt to exercise
power beyond these limits should be
promptly and firmly opposed. For one
evil example will lead to other measures
still more mischievous, and if the princi-
pie of constructive powers, or supposed
advantages, or temporary circumstances,
shall ever be permitted to justify the as
sumption of a power not given by the
Constitution, the General Government
will before long absorb all the powers of
legislation, and you will have in effect
but one consolidated Government. From
the extent of our country, its diversified
interests, different pursuits and different
habits, it is too obvious for argument that
a single consolidated Government would
be wholly inadequate to watch over and
protect its interests, and every friend of
our free institutions should be always pre-
pared to maintain unimpaired and in full
vigor the rights and sovereignty of the
States, and to confine the action of the
General Government strictly to the sphere
of its appropriate duties. u

BLOW Ar TUE JUDTCIARY

The Radical Legislature of Mississippi
has added its testimony to that of the
Radical Legislature of Tennessee, that
the Radical party will not tolerate an
honest, faithful discharge of duty on the
part of the Judiciary, where such dis
charge of duty conflicts with the purposes
of that party. A few days ago the Senate
of Mississippi adopted the following reso-
luton:
''Resolved, That a joint committee of
three on the part of t1e Senate and - on
the part of the House be appointed to
prepare an address as provided in section
81, article ~ of the Constitution, to his
Excellency, the Governor, for the removal
from office of 7. Shackleford, the Judge
who sat at the trial of the writ of
hd6e0s corpus for the release of L.
NJ. Yerger, and that the said committee
shall report on or before Monday next
The Memphis Appeal says: "The
Radical party no where yields the consti-
tutional independence of the judiciary. A
judge may be honest his opinion unan-
swerable, and bis decision simply declare
the law. But if it crosses Radical pur-
poses, or capital is to be made by assail-
ing it, or its author, they will not scruple
to strike, and were it possible, would dis
grace themselves. Every lawyer and ev
man of sense knows that Yerger's was
bailable case. Make the worst possible
of it, it had such provocations and mihgat-
eating circumstances that no intelligent
and honest jury can ever be brought to
say on their oaths that the homicide was
with malice prepense, rather than the
effect of sudden heat, passion and human
frailty. ihe proof of murder is not evil
dent, nor the presumption great, and to
have refused bail would have been the de-
NAL of constitutional right, and have
been a cruel and shameful injustice. The
judge, passably learned in the law, who
could entertain the opinion that bail in
such a case is inadmissible, would be the
ecorn of his profession, and the forswon
slave of bloodthirsty party hounds. Judge
Shackleford has done his honest duty
nothing more. He may be deposed-but
he will be martyr to just dealing, and
his execudoners will brand themselves
with infamy.n

he was content to give notice that the.
United States Is the strongest military
power in the world, and, by way of
proving it, capturing and annexing the
Red River country. Were a Brit
lsh Peer to rise in his place

in abuse and menaces against this country

the effect, and the bulls and bears would

energetic outbursts of patriotism from

Washington correspondent of the Balti-

aristocracy on the other, of the Old

nonchalance to indicate that our
statesmen are mere braggarts, aid

self-conceit9 The latest news received

RADICAL REHAVADO.

Senator Chandler, of Michigan, trav.
eled in Europe last year, though how ex.
tensively we are unable TO say. But be
has come home big with the idea that the
great American nation can whip the
world, and he is disposed to indulge in a
little bravado, just as big lubberly boy
would do in a crowd of smaller boys.
Abo re all, Chandler entertains great con-
tempt for the British Lion, and he does
not hesitate at hurting it out, as his
speech in the United States Senate a few
days ago abundantly tesiides, and he pro-
poses giving expression to this contempt
by annexing the fertile territory Of Win
nepeg, under the very nose of this
lordly beast. The manner in which
Chandler, who is compound of "Bot-
tom the Weaver and "Ancient Pistol, "
made the eagle shrek in the Senate on
the occasion alluded 10 was most edify-

NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.
An old FaIlacF Expledcd.


Thirty or forty years ago, 1t was the fashion to
administer powerful purgatives as ''spring medi-
clnes.p Terrific doses Of salts and SIENNA, calomei
and jalap, or glaubeF salts were given TO all the
members of family, whether sick or well, by way
Of preparing them for the warm weather in pros
pect. This pernicious custom Is nearly obsolete,
but there are some old Bourbons Of private life,
incapable alike of forgetting anything or learning
anything who obstinately cling TO it still Moth ng
oOuld be more psrniciOus, more utterly nnphilo-
sophical, than such an onslaught on the vigor and
elasticity of the system. In order to enable the
physical structure to resist the enervating effects
of spring damps and summer heats, it should be
toned and reinforced, not relaxed and weakened.
The best medicine agent for this purpose is Hos
letters Stomach Bitters Its effect is to tone the
stomach and liver, gently relieve the bowels from
obstructions brace the nerves. improve the quality
Of the blood, stimulate the appetite and cheer the
spirits. In this improved condition the organiza-
ton is capable Of resisting unhealthy influences,
which would PROSTATE an enfeebled system. A
vigorous digestion is absolutely essential TO
health, and there is no danger Of the stomach
fatering failing in its important Office if this
genial vegetable elixir is taken regularly as q
stomachic. None of the tonic tinctures extracts
win supply the place of the Bitters, for the simple
reason that they operate as astringents only. In
fact in ordinary practice, Eve or six prescriptions
would be required to produce separately, the bene
| hcial results which are effected simultaneously
and tremendously by this single specific.
