To the judiciary U asfe'incd the c-xjo-ition of the fuml4tn;uUl Uw a well as of other Um. The fund-tmenUl law denei the power, duties, right, oUigtlion and relation of the govern Dent itiul citizens. If the lezi.-Iiture huij transcend it authority and pas.- "w contrary to the Constitution, it would eem to be pretty clear that it oul.t not be the jode in cae of its own wron. ' ALiXANbcu Hamilton, who. of all the frv roer of our Cor.fctitution, fcuppoed to be the moil strenuous adrocate of li-tt is cnlled a ftror; government; yet le terj cirurtly arue the necessity of rj Independent judiciary, a-i e-en-tial tu guard the rights of the citizen and to defeud and maintain the limitations of power declared by U.e fundamental law. He mj (Fed eralisi I'-per. LXXVIII): "The t omplete inde pendente -of the courts of justice ia peculiarly eutiiI in limited constitution. Hy a lintired constitution I understand one wliich cunUins certain rpecified ezcention to th IcoMn; . - - thority; uch for instance ts that it rlull p.-s no bilU of attainder, no ex pott fact Uw, and the like. Limitation of thin kind can be preserved in practice in no other way than through the medium of the courts of justice, whoelnt v it mu.t be to declare aU laws contrary to the manifest tenor of the Constitution void. Without thi II the re fer at. on of parti:ular rights or privileges would amount to nothing. "Some perplexity respecting the rights of court to rronouiice legislative acts void be caue contrary to the Contilution ln ri-en from n mzuii)n thai the doctrine wouU iinfly a Miprioiity of the juliciary to the lej;ilitite power.

As this doctrine is of treat Import :nce in all the A met ie in Ciitiiutioi,s, a brief i!iHHsi.Mi of the KrounJs ou which it re?ts eantiot be un iccept ab'e. "There is no position wliich depends on clearer principles than that, every act of delegated autlw.i ity contrary to the tenor of the cominiiun votier which it i exercised, 'u void. No Icialatite act, therefore, tontr try to the Cotistiu.tion, Can bo valid.

From tbe Hrrtst'nr( Tatriot ant Union.1 Amt Keiidrtll on lte Crlala LtTTta v. To the l'ricondttiontl Union Mm of the United Slates For the purpoe of making more palpable the character ol the I'res'dent's plan ol re onstruclijt, let us look a little into the wtrneture of our irovernment. To rreenl a raiseot.struction as to the ineauiii of the Cou.stitution, the tenth ameud nieut win a.Jo-jted in the following word. viz "The powers not delected to the Ut.ited States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the blale. are reserve-1 tv the sttei leipectively, or to the people." Suffrage is the bais ol all our free iustitu'ions. Through that rilit the people tlect, directly or indirectly, h1 our rulers. State legidatori, governors aiid ju lire?, members of Congress, rresideiil and tee I'resiiient, I-eiierai iudven. rnJ all the army of oftire-holders under the State and National (Joverumeids. The power to regulate sullrajra. who declare who in iv vote and who miv not, "is not delejrated to the Unite! States by the Constitution, nor prohih:tt: by it ;i the States It is therefore "reserve to tiiu States or the t eop'.c" There U no such thing as Cn'tel States votcts on the contrary, the whole t.iijtic ol tf.e general govei ntueiit i bu.lt upn State sull'rage Ait 1 , fee. 2. f the (oustitution, provides as f d'ows "The lIoue of Uei resent itives shtl! be com p-oed of iiietntier chosen everv recond year by the people f the several State, and the elec ors (voters) of cacti st ite shall hive the quahlioi tion.s requisite for elector-s of theiot numerous branch of the state legislature. In other words, all the people of the several Suied who are qu Jitied by their Strife couflitu lions and law to vote fr members of the most numerous branch ol their Srnte legislatures, and no others, haiea light to vote for members ol the Housi of Representatives. Setiators of the United States ate choeo by the State legislatures, who derive their iower from the same voter The elecluraof I'resiilent and Vice Pres ident also derive their existence and power directly or indirectly from the aarie voters. Thus ii m. that through the exercise of a power "reserved to the States or. to the people," voters qualified by the Constitution and laws of the several States form the found it inn uf our entire system of cerumen t Ha who Louies into the Con fetitution of the United Stites for any grant of pOwer, expre ;r impltel, utliorizii, Coijjrrs ur the Executive to prescribe qualihc ttions Tr voters, liether voting tar State olJicers, members of Ci:rcss or l'rcsioetit and Vice 1'resident, will not find it. No futh power was given or intended to be given, and tt.s assumption is a 6oir at the heart and life of constitutional liberty. Now let us consider the net of the President in connection with these principles ai,d the state of things in Louisiana. The 1'resident recognizes that State as a State in the Union. Its constitutions and lows, constituting its government and regulating ttie right of suffrage, remain intact, not hnvii.g been abolished or altered by the re bellion They hive been so far rescued from rebel grnp that the people in a large portion of the State might exercise that right unintimid ated by armed rebels, liut they are restrained; nut bv the rebels, but by the artnv ot the United States. The President assumes that the covernmetit ol Louisiana, has been subverted by the ret-eiiimi of some of her sons, ami that, as a consequence of that rebellion, all her pons hare loit the right of sulTi-jige an assumption without reason or law. He then proceeds to grant the riht to such of them as will take the oath pie'scribel by him wo say giant, lor however obscured by tunning phniseol.igy, it ainou'its to crniit. The essence of the transaction is more clearly expressed in the following ords, viz: "Whereas, by reason of the rbi!in of a portion of the people of Louisicni, all the citizens of aiid State have lust their riht of suffrage; now 1, Abraham Lincoln, President ol tlie United States, by virtue of (what?) do hereby :ive, grant and c-tnvey to so manv'of said citizens as shall lake the oath aforesaid, the riI.t tit vote for State oCicets, members of Congress, electors of President and Vice President; to have and hold s tid rights as long as they shail kce:t the oath an 1 no longer." Now, by what authority is this yrant made? But one pretext is U tig alleged for it, and that is scarcely worthy of notice. It i h lii it the Pre--ivlent his a light to grant an amnesty, and to annex conditions tit that amnesty. We concede the pi mcipie, with the reservation that the con diliuiis must in themselves be lawful We admit that when a citizen lias forfe.ted life and property by icbebion, the Piesident may spare inside by amnesty, and leave his pnqcily to confiscation.

A f-rce of two bundled thousand men, of the class now in the service, would be m;re eilective than a million ol the new levies which will hue to be rthed upon to conduct the j coming campaign. I'etween disease, disaster I and i'jefSciency, which mut he aeiiously aggravated by the apT'illir.s: cwisjiou-ness of having to'confront an army equal ia all the attributes of soldiers to any that the world has ever .seen, the nrt numerical result of a million of such material mav not unreasonably be set down at three hundred thousand men. Pursuing this rdio back to the agj-regVe standard at which Northern eitinntes tix the inimetical force o I the Yankee army in the next campaign, we find but little, if anything, to ju.stilv the shadow of a ho'e of their withstanding the overwhelming onslaught of our noble army.
