Next came the attempt of the .Republicans to annul that provision of the Constitution which ordains that bo money shall be drawn from the treasury but upon appropriation m.ade by law, and to induce the executive officers to put their hind into the treasury at discretion and takeout the money.

Here, again, the Supreme Court stood by the Constitution and the liberty of the people. The Republican party, however, to phow it approval of the doctrine of arbitrary arrest, and to make it the istie in the coming election, immediately nominated JuJe Ray their candidate for Jutte of the Supreme Court, thnwing that it U a part of their policy to tenure a Court that will, as they expect, renter Executive and I'roroat Marshal edict. The Republican, in the coming canvass, have thus planted thempelves Squarely upon the platform of arbitrary power, and invite the people to uphold them upon it, and thus surrender to them their liberties. We hall fee if they will do it. A" J ?amp!e of tho operation of government by arbitrary power, we give the following case, derided by the Supreme Court, and which we take from the '21ft volume of Indiana Reports, now pn!!n through tho pres.

In so doinc. akl Deputy Provo-t Marshal Skeen. pprehe:iuii:g that iKilerick M'nkfimer htd to!eu horse belonging C the United States, arrested said Monkeimer, tnrro mnttt, and took him to jail ia Ripley county, an I required the jailor to c;Tme hini therein, which said jailor refused to d-; whereii;on ?id Deputy Provost Marshal Skeen required the ji.ir to surrender the ke 4 of the j til io hiui . hi h the j li'or did ; and thereupon ?i:d Deputy Provost Marshal Skee v l.okel s .'kI Monkeimer up in a cell of the jail.

We have said all thai we desire to ar on the general question raised of jurisdiction in the Ohio and Mississippi Railroad Co. t. Fitch.

We can- j not assent to this doctrine. It wonli establish' the most terrific derotism the world his ever witnessed. And it is not imrrorer to dd here the remark that Indiana has uer been in a con I dition to justify, aecordirg to any esublished i principle ot law, the superceling of the judicial by the military power, iu the prosecution and t punishment of crime; yet it is now matter of amazement, when we look back and see to what ; extent this baa been practiced, and the rights of ; personal libertt and personal security disregard- ; ed.

Anothrr I'tagr of IIitor'. It ij sometimes eurious as well as instructive to loiik back. We find out-ide of (Jeneral McClcllan's Report, a piece of history which is illus trative of some of the points in it. When on that memorable 2d of September. 15C2, the President and Gen. Halleck fought him at his house and begged him to save the capital and the nation, the radical faction who bad accomplished his overthrow and disgrace a, few days previous, were in the highest excitement. The indignation which they expressed was uot measured by any ordinary terms of language. A very curious circumstance, which took place that day. may serve to illustrate the tear in which the Administration stood of these radicals who had surrounded and pocssed them. The order restoring (5 et:cral JlcClell m to the coin man l of the army, and placing the fate of the nation in his hands, was made in writing, probably after the interview of the President with him. In the Report this order does not appear. It is 'ivin in i foot-note in the New York edition of JSIieldon Si. Co. Hut the curious fact id this. The order was telegraphed to the New York pa per.s on the evening of the 21 of September, l!-62. We published it the next morning, im uUaneou-dy with other newspapers. It was as follows: HrapQfARTFRs or the Army, AxvifTANT General's Office. Washington, Sept. 2. 162 Ry direction of the President, Major (Jeneral McClcll ui will h ive commind of the fortification. of Wahington, and of all the troops tor the defence of the capit il Ry order of the Secretary of War. K D. Tow sr.Np, A. A. Gen.

It woul'i seem so. tor tlie order wm re p?jS limbed in an 'ueiide! form, suppresin ihe names of the President and Secretary ot War, and si !r relievinsr them frtrri .inj itr'xrent con nectinn with the restoration of McCltlhn to tlie cimni aiid t; the .11 of September a dispatch came from W.!iinttn stating that the order fbould read as follows: War Dii'artment, ) AnJfTANT Gkneral's Ofiict.

D. Townsknu, .. A. G. Cm any one assign a euible reason for this change of a plain order, except the desire to suppress the rime of the President and Secre t.-tty of War in cotneciion with it, for the sake of preserving favor with the radical enemies of McOMIan? Whv wa the origin tl order couched in such dubious language? Kvcry one remembers that it was not till explained by telegraph tint the people even understood th a MfClelim was in command of the whole Army of the Potomac. It was nndoubte i'y ingeniously woril to ;void ti e ftorm of radical i:;diu itioti which was an ticipifed. Instejil of a frank, noble order, ex pte-in clearly the duties of the General upon whom the very destiny cf the Republic was that div re:ed, e hare tins ingenious phraseology sent forth to the nation, to deceive them into the idea thit McClelian wis only placed ia commind of the forts. Stheradicl pipers declared at the time it was only (lenenl Halle -k's order, plicnip McClelian in the fortirlcitions ji'st the work he as suitel for! Rut mark the astounding truth now first male t'ain and puMic, thotitrh our readers will remember that we lon ago in'etrel it frotn other facts. Under that order, irgeniou-dy wordel. and under no other order or word of cam mmd from Prci dent. Seeretarv of War. or Gen. Hall uk, bearing tu authority but tint hieb this tricked-up fotni of words doubtfully gave him. General McClelian led the army into Marylmd and gii.ed the victories of South Mountain and Antetam. Halleck.it will be brne in mind, exptesly tells McClelian, in h s dispib b of Oi toIer2fth. l-t3: "Since you left Washington. I have uiven vou n orders Neilher lud any one el-e. nr to the close of Antietam " Tbe simple truth was that McClelian. the only man in Washington fit for th occasion, as the inacton of every one else abundantly confesses, having been charged with the defence of the ctpital, mounted his hore when he thought the time a proper one. and went into the field to victory and the salvation of the caniial of the nation. President. Secretary of War, Haliack. all were so paralyzed as far as anything they id or did remain to indicate They lKked idly on while McCUlltn saved them at.d the country. Halleck indeed aent grumbling thunder after hin

over the wires. Thua on the 9th of Sept. HalIfck telegrsph: "Until we have better advices about the numbers of the enemy at Drainesville. I think we rauU be very cnuioat about stripping too much the fort on the Virginia aide." Ajain on the 13th be growls: "You are wrong in ihr.e uncovering the capital." Again on the Pith: "Scouts report a large force itill on tbe Virgin; aide of the Potomac. If o, I fear you are exposing your left and rear." Again, on tbe 16th. at 12 03 P. M. Hxlieck telegraphs: "I think yoj will find that the whole force of the enemy n your frout has Crosse 1 the river. I feir now more thin ever that they will recros at Harper's Ferry ore!ovT, and turn your left, thus cutting you olf from Washington." One can imair.e the smile of McC!e!lan as he read that last Cisp-.tch amid the thunders of the cannon on the evening of the 1 6:h the evening before Antietam. An I Hilleck. after all these daily fitsnf tremor nd nervounes about McClelian' uncovering the capital after dispatch on dispatch, begins McC!ella;i not to get so fir off from the capital and leave them to the invasion of the rebel; after discouraging every step of McClellan's advance in Maryland, up to the hour of the victory at Antietam, this same Gen. eral Halleck comnlains of the slow advance of McClelian in Maryland! talks about the astonishing fact that be marched only a few ml es a day! and writes an official report, assuming the credit of the campaign, ? lying thu "McClelian was directed to tursue him" (the enemy) into Maryland after Pore's defeat. A year ago we expo-ed the untruthfulness of this assumption. Now it is proved untrue. No auch direction was given, but the Maryland campiign stands out as the work of McClelian, untrammeled only because the people in Washington aere so thoroughly frightened hat for once they permitted a military man to conduct a campaign on his own plans. Rut what is to be Fai 1 of the treatment these same men gave McClelian when he had relieved them from their fright and saved the capital and the nation? History will doubtless find the truth about these matters. McClelian will be honored by the remote-t generations of Americans Silent when ill treated, swift when called to serve his country, firm, faithful, true as steel, truuworlhy always, he is to day nearer than any other man to him ho was fir-t in w ir, first in peace, and first in the hearts of his countrymen.

It has been discovered by the ad vaneed s-piritd of the abolition party that tlie negro is in m my importont respects the 9upeiior of the white-, and that if the latter do not forget their pride of race and blood and color, and am iljamattf with tlie purer and lieber blood of the blacks, they will die out of America and wither away in unprofi'able skinniness, meriting by their obstinacy nnd lolly tlie fate of the red man. whom thy have either exterminated or driven into the wilderness. The first to givn tonruo to the new doctrine whs the Rev. Theodore Tiltoti, the co iddjutor of the Kev. Henry Ward Beeclnr in the editorship a of the Independent, who a few months ago declared in an assemblage principally eomoosed of women possibly all of the strong minded order that it was good for white women to marry black men, an i tint the "passional" and "emotional" nature of the blacks was needed to improve the white race. Mr. Wendell rhill;ps has often hinted the same thing, no doubt to the great j'oy of the stalwart negioes who has attended bis lectures, if not to that of the shameless white women who have not thought it unwotthy of tbvir modesty to listen. The doctrine onco broached has found believers and adherents, and a little tract called "Misce genation" has recently been widely circulated, in which the whole subject is discussed for the etudy of such Yankee girls as have exhausted the sensational novels, and of fetich abolitionist preachers and lecturers as have not yet risen to the bight of this black argument. When Miss Dickinson repeated, on Monday evening1 last, at the Cooper Institute, the lecture which she delivered before the President at Washington a lortnight ago, she was somewhat late in making her appearance on the plat form, and to pacify the audience, (mostly compo-ed of women.) who were growing impatient of delay, the advertisements and laudatory notices of this 'tract were handed around for their perusal, a circumstance which suggested to many that the lecturer was either the author of the book or peculiarly interested in its sale. A few extracts from this wotk will ferve to convey to Puropean readers same notion of the fanaticism that so easily takes root in America, and of the fermentation of ideas, even of the most disgusting kind, which may be made to prevail among a people in times of social and political revolution. Tho fundamental idea of the new Anicharsis Clootz, or wotse than he. who is guiity ol the treatise, U this: "Whatever there is of power and vitality in the American race, is derived not from its Anglo Saxon progenitors, but from all the diliVrent ria tionalities which go to make up this peo;le. All that is needed to make us the finet race on earth is to engraft upon our stock the negro element which Providence has placed by our side upon this continent. Of ad the rich treasures of blood vouchsafe! to us, that of the negro is the most precious, because it is the mo-t unlike any other that enters into the composition of our national life They (the negroes) are our brothers and sisters. Py mingling with ttiem, we become powerful, progressive and prosperous; by refusing to do so, we become feeble, unhealthy, narrow minded, unfit for the nobler ofljees of freed m, and certain of early decay." The i uthor cited various wriiers to show that in marriage, people are attracted by their Ofpos ites; th it the intellectual man does not seek for iutelltet in his wife, but for ntTection. without much intellect; that the dark prefer the blonde, the hört the tall, the lean the plump, and vice versa. He then oe? on to prov, with rtn unction which might uliro-t make one nispect him ot being a inaucais j'ajcmr, why it is that tho American white race must ititcrminjOe with the Americui black race, or die out. The white people, he says, "are rerUlong for w it.t of flesh anil blood. Thej have bone and s:new; but they are dry and shrivelled fr lick of the healthful juices of life. The cheeks me shrunk en, the lips ate thin and bloodless, the under jiw narrow and retreating, the teeth are decayed and painful, the noe sharp and cold, the eyes small and watery, the complexion of a bine and yellow hue, the head and shoulders bent forward, the hair dry nd straggling." This is his picture of the men; that of the women h scarcely more llattering. "Tho waists of tne women are thin and pinched, tell ing of tcrility and consumption; the general appearance gaunt and cadaverous from head to foot. You see them," he adds, "with eye cla-e and spectacles, false teeth, artificial color in the face, attiiicial plunipne.-s to the form;" while the social intercourse of the sexes he describes as being "formal, ascetic and unemotional." "How different, " he save, "is an assemblage of negroes! Kvery cheek is plum;., the eeth are whiter than ivory, there are no bald beads, the eyes are large at.d bright, cverv ftce wears a smile, evtrv form is snlwart." Itifbort.be s.iys that American white men need contact with healthy, loving, w arm-bloo let! natures, to fill up the lean interstices of their anatomy, nnd that such natures are onh' to be found among ne'te--es. It p.'S h!e. and highly probable, that the author himself is one ot the levn. eunt, bloodless Yankees whora he so eloquently de-cribe.-. and that, failing to find a wife to his mind among the strop -mir.ded ladies of a horn Miss Anna E D.ckitwn at.d Mrs. Ileccher Stowe arethe types, he lons for a genial putner from .be Southern plantation. "What," he inquires, "does the Anglo S ixon (American) look for in a lovely woman? Her cheeks must be rounded and have a tint of the sun. her lips rnu-t be touting, her teeth white and regular, her eyes large and bright, her hair mut curl about her head and de scend in crinkling waves; she must te merry, gay, full of poetry and sentiment, fond of sorj. childlike and artle-s " " The most beautilul womn I ever faw," he adds, "was a mulatto. She was a ripe and complete wiman. Her com plexion w warm, and dark, and golden, with the heat of tropical suns, htr lips full and lus cious, her cheeks perfectly molded, her hair curling and black as the raven's ing." It is just possible that this lean Yankee if he be one, and have the me:ns to maintain a wife might find a suitable one among tbe Caucasian race in Kuropc, if lie were to try, ef-ecilly in Kr gland or Scotland, without resorting- to negre??es or mulatto girl; but there is no accounting either lor the vitiated ta(es of t.ane men or the vagaries of mad philosopher But uot for his ou individual pleasure does the American CIimjU urge his plea for more than brotherh.Kl with the people he loves. It ia for hi country,

it is for the cue of progre. it is for the world, ' is forChri-tianity, that he pleads fur amaliramuioiwitha rare which, with his purely (or in.p.jly; animal Instincts, he believes In all phyical attributes to be so superior to bia own. "Or prejudices." be sayi, "are dying out, and na&re Ii aertir.g the unity of all men. The nefo declares that he laves tbe white mm, and tb- progressive party of the North aetts the ripts ot the negro." The leaiera of progress, aoong whom we quote Wendell FbUlips and Tfeodore Tilton, urce niiscegenetic reform (analgaraatioti of the race?) The American pe !e are ripe to receive the truth. The souther! women feel the magnetism of association ' wih a tropical race. Tho mothers and daughters of the slave holding Jiristocracv are thri'.Iel with

a rnge delight bj daily contact with their m le servitors. Tlrough the firy te of war they (the Americaboth of the North and South) are bin led tdeliverance from old pride and prejudices; and ineed, the instinct of the white man has responded to the call of the negro for fraternity. Thfre wer wants in his nature which only the nego could fill. There were delects in his phy aicalorganizttion that only the negro (i. e. the negrtss) could supply. It ia a mean pride, unwortiy of a Christian or an enlightened community, that should lead any to deny this. The 9ucce4 of the anti-slavery party has proved it. so that denial of the principle la denial of facts universally known. They have touched a chord that his vibrated with a sweet, strange and marvellous music, awakening sluraberin instincts in the heart of tlie nation and the world." The author's politics are 8 decidedly black as his heart's affections "It will be a sad misfor tune," he says, "if this war should end without a black ceneral in command of a white or mixed body of troops. We want au American Toussaint L'Overture to give the black his proper position on this continent, and the day is coming! People say the rebellion is at au end; but that is not true. The South wiltfight to the list; but it ii the eternal fitness of things that they should finally be subdued by the black, soldier." After that, "the lands of "the South must b divided among the negroes, who are its only loyal popu lation.'' Were the idea of this fanatic confined to himself, they might excire laughter, disgust, or contempt; but heu expressed in more modest and more guarded language by Mr. I'iiillips or Mr. Tilton. they elicit the approval of crowded audiences of educated Auieiicatts, of whom a large preponderance are white women. The madne s of the hour in this distracted country receives a new but unfragrant illustration. If this be done in the green leaf, what shall be done in 'he dry? And through what new phases of insanity must the Americans pass before the strong conqueror booted nnd spurred, with a double edged sword in his iron grip, sh dl coc;e nt the call of the timid majority to rescue them from the shameless fanatics ?id the cruel bigots who would drive them to destruction? statu rn;?ts.

Although the attempt to destroy our office was made by a portion of the company mentioned, e do uot think tlie whole compiny should be censured for the acts of a few; nor do we think the few who made the assault should be censured too much, as they never had read . copy of our prtper, and knew nothing of our principles, but were deceived by citizens t home who wrote to them ih.it we were publishing a disloyal pper, and who when the soldiers arrived at home instigate! them to make the nttempt thev did.
