This act of lc'61 is defective in not defining what an appropriation is. aa a guide to the audi tor in regulating his action ; but the very fact that the legislature enacted no definition argues that they must have supposed that an approprta tioit was something palpable, distinct, recouni table, clear in iu own expression so that it could not be mistaken. Can it be possible that this thin of an appro priatioo, so important as to L made the subject of a distinct constitutional prt vision, and the mis tatin oi it oy an oincer. a enannal onenee. is anything, everything, and nothing, according to circumstances ; something to he ascertained by conjecture, or created bv imagination ? ' As, then, the treasurer cannot transfer the money to the state aent without a warrant from the auditor, and the latter cannot wsue the warrant without an appropriation, the whole question in the case turns upon the existence of that fact. The auditor necessarily decided this question for himelf on the application for the warrant, and he decided against the existence of an appro priatiun. and refused the wamnt. Thereupon this proceeding was instituted against him by creditors to compel the issue of the warrant. The court below ordered the warrant to issue. The auditor appealed. The application for the wrif was not premature, and if there was an approbation on which it might issue, the judgment of the court below was right.' Was there an appropriation ? There was none in any act purporting to be an appropriation bill. Can one be constructively created out of other acts found in the statute book TThis leads to the inquiry what constitutes an appropriation within the provision of the conti stutioii prohibiting payment without one. What is meant by this constitutional inhibition, this limitation upon executve power; why was it made a part of the paramount law of the state ? Why werf not the executive and administrative officers left to their own discretion iu the use of the public revenues t History answers these questions. The restraints contained in all the American state constitutions, and in the con stitution of the United States, upon the pow era of the different departments of Government were imposed with a view to provide agair.t some abuse of such powers which had been practiced in England, the country from whicii our fathers came, the country, indeed, from which they He I to escape the evils flowing from abuses of the powers of government. Most of the provisions of our A merican constitut'ons, containing the restraints mentioned, were taken substantially from certain solemn declaratory acts or resolution of the British Parliament, passed at certain times in the history of Great Britain when the people claimed and were asserting their rights, or were attacking abuses, and which acts were regarded as enunciating great fundamental principles, the observance of which by the Government would secure their rights and correct those abases. Magna Charta extorted from King John; the prtition of right from Charles the First; the haleai corpus act under Charles the Second; the bill ef riqktx declared to William and Mary after the abdication of James the Second, and the act nf settlement of 12 and 13 of William the Third, are the principal of the great acta deciara tort of, and designed to secure and perpetuate the libei ties of Englishmen. Among the principles of government thus settled in Great Britain was this: That the Kinir, or Executive Department, should not use the money in the national treasury except as specially apnroprirted by Parliament. In the earlier period of Engl'ish history, it appears that the King both levied, or imposed, and expended the public revenues by his own authority. He was thus independent of his people, and. as a matter almost of conrse, was tyrannical and wasteful in ad minis tration. See Black. Comm., chat. 8. The first important check on this money power of the King was the establishment of ihe great princple "that without the sanction of Parliament no tax of any kind cau be imposed." This principle rendered the King dependent upon the legis lative power for the amount of money he might eipend.but still left it to his discretion, or that of his officers, to spend the money raised by Par li tment at will that is, to npplj it to such claims made upon the treasury, a he or they chose, to the neglect of others, The money was used where self gratification, favoritism and corrnp tion could be best accomplished while just demands upon the treasury were left unpaid "While Danby was at the he.id of the finances, the creditors had received their dividends, though not with the strict punctuality of modem times; bnt since the victory won by the court over the Whigs, not a farthing had been paid, and no re dress granted to the sufferers till a new dynasty estnblished a new system." (Macaulay, vol. 1, It. 224 ) Till that was done Ihe public creditors, le says, were plundered, and the public revenues wasted in extravagance and corruption by the court. The new system referred to was established at the revolution of 108, and was regarded as of the highest importance. What it was is Ihn stated in Creasy on the English Constitution p. 233: "In addition to this important guarantee (the mutiny act.) for the regular meeting of Parlia. merit, a svstem of ettUng the roval revenue wan established in William's reign, whioh necessitated the observance of the same constitutional princi pie. The House of Commons then determined no longer to vote to the crown certain general large sums of revenues to be appliel to particular purposes, according to the Royal discretion; but they appropriated specific parts of the revenue to specific purpose nf government This principle had been previously attempted, but it is only since 16 that it has been strictly enforced." Savs Mr. llallam. in his Constitutional History, p. 555: "This great and fundamental principle, aa it has long been justly considered, that the money voted by Parliament is appropriated, and can only be applied, to certain specified heids of expendit ire, was introduced, as I have before mentioned, in the reign of Charles II, and generally, though not in every instance, adopted by his Parliament. The unworthy House of Commons that sat in 1635. not content with a needless augmentation of the revenre, took credit with the King for not having appropriated their supplies; but, from the Revolution, it has leen the invariable usage The Lords of the Treasury, by a clause annually repeated in the appropriation act of every session, are forbidden, under severe pen allies, to order by their warrant any moneys in the Exchequer, so appropriate!, from being issued for any other service, and the officer of the Exchequer to obey any such warrant. This has given the House of Commons so effectual a con trol over the executive power, or, more truly speaking, has rendered it so much a participator in that power, that no Administration can possibly subsist without its concurrence." "It is to this transference of the executive government (for the phrase is hardly too strong) from the Crown to the two Houses of Parliament, and especially the Commons, that we owe the proud attitude which England has maintained since the Revolution, so extraordinarily dissimilar, in the eyes of Europe, to her condition under the Stuarts." . The system established, was, that all the money in the Treasury was to be specifically appropriated, and specificallv applied. This new and important principle, as Euglish historians call it, thus practically establ.ghed in that country, is : adopted in this State, as a part of our fundamental law., "No money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in pursuance of appropriations made by law."; ! And the abuse lo be corrected by the establishment of the principle, was, the exet eise of officic! discretion in paying out the public money. The purpos to be accomplish!, was, ' the giving to the legislative power alone the right, and imposing upon it the duty of designating, periodically, the particular demand against the State, or other objects, to which the moneys in the Treasury shall be, from time to time, applied, and the amount to each. Opinions Att'y Gen., Vol. 2, page 670. And, it is a great and iny portant principle not to be lightly violate!. If it is doubtfnl whether the legislative power has ex ercised iu function in this particular, the officers of State should not tike the money from the Treasury. See Tha People; vs. Schoon maker. . Si Keman, N. Y, R.238. It mi? be laid down as a maxim In constitutional government, that

officers, as a ;general ru'e, should not assume to exercise doubtful powers. Such assumption is the first step in usurpation, in setting at naught, in fact, the Constitution. That step should not be taken; for if it is, there is danger that it wi'.l be followed by others in the same direction till the constitutional prohibition is entirely trolden tinder foot , There is no necessity that the State officers shoul J assume doubtful powers.' There is no necessity that the Court, in this ce, should attempt to bend the constitutional rule in order to create a justification to those officers in the assumption of 6nch powers. The Constitution has provided against this necessity by authorizing the Executive of the State to call the Legislature together to supply deficiencies in

legislation. I here is, hence, no necessity that the officers of State should exen-ie questionable authority, and disrespect for the restraints of the Constitution be thus encouraged, or the credit of the State be dishonored. The question, then is, is there an appropriation by law of the money to pay the July interest on the State debt? If there is, the proper State officers can pay it. If there is not, they cannot legalTy do so. What, then, is an appropriation by law? What is a definition of it? Judicial decisions are not cited, to snv extent on this point. It has rarely arisen in the courts of this State, and yet it is one of great im portance in the correct administration of the gor ernnient, and ought to be definitely settled; and when it is. so, carefullr observed. There are some4hings which, plainly enough, are not sev erally an appropriation. A promise by the Gov ernment to pav motier is not. an appropriation A duty on the part of the Legislature to make an appropriation, is not sucli. A promise to make an appropriation is not an appropriation The pledge of the fiith of the State is not an ap proprtation 'of money with which to redeem the pledge. Usage of paving money in the absence of an appropriation cannot make an appropriation for future pavment. The question is to be set tied npon the meaning of the Constitution. Usage may be evidence of the'menning the administrative officers have put upon that instrument, and as such, entitled to respectful consid eration. but it is no. binding interpretation; and theprescnt usage was, in fact, probably com menced itliout much consideration. See J ewell vs. 1 he People 3 Seiden, on page 94. An excellent illustration of what constitutes an appropriation is presented in the summary of the legislation of Congress upon the subject, found in ßrightly'a Dieest, o. 42, under the title "Ap propriations. That legislation is an exposition by the legislative and executive departments cf the Federal Government of the requirements of the clause in the Federal constitution, that "no monev shall le drawn from the treasury, but in consequence of appropriations madebvUw." See Bnghtlv, p 5, note M.. and McConnell vs. W il cox. I be mm, (ills j it. jo'j. An appropriation mar be made in different modes. It may be made by an act setting apart ami specially appro priating the mouev dertveo, from a particular source of revenue to a particular purpose. Our amp land art is of this character. 1 G Sl II., 597. Dxld vs. Miller. 14 Ind . 433. Lange vs. Stoner, 10 Iod., 175. Smith, in his Wealth of Nations, speaking of exchequer bills, &c, proceeds, p 38, "when this resource is exhausted, an 1 it becomes necessary. in order to raise monev, to assign or mortgage some particular branch of the puMic revenue for the pav ment of the debt, Itovernnient has. upon diflereut occasions, done this in two different wavs. Sometime it has made this assignment or mortgage for a short period o! time only, a yer, t i or a lew years, tor example, ami sometimes ior perpetuity. In the one case, the fund was supposed sufficient to pav, within the limited time. both principal and interest of the money borrowed. In the other, it was suppose! sumcient to pay the nterest only, or a perpetual annuity equivalent to the interest, Government being at liberty to re deem, at any time, this annuity, upon payiug back the principal sum borrowed. " Appropriation, as applicable to the general fund in the treaurv, mav, perhaps, be defined to be an an authority from the Legislatur given at the proper time, and in legal form, to the proper officers to apply sums of monev out of that which may be in the treasury, in a given vear, to specified objects, or demands against the State. An appropriation of the money to a specific ob ject would be an authority to the proper officers to pay the money, because the Auditor is author ized to rlraw bis warrant upon au appropriation, and the Treasurer is authorized to pay such warran if he has appropriated money in the treas urv. . And such an appropriation may be prospective, that is, it may be made in one year, of the revenues to accrue in another, or future years, the law being so framed as to address itself to such future revenues. ' S . a direction lo the officers to pay money out of the treasury upon a given claim, or for a given object, may, by implication, include in the direc tion an appropriation. out the pledge of the faith of the State .thit revenues shall be provided in future and applied to the discharge of given claims against the State. does not authorize the officers of State, without further legislative direc tiou to apply the general (und in the treas ury to the payment of those claims; it is not an appropriation or tne money in tne general fund. We think there can be no mistake as to the correctness of this proposition. If it is not true, then we are certainly thrown back upon that very official discretion which England abrogated at the revolution of 1G8H, and which it was the design of our Constitution to aorog-tte here. Such pledges are solemn obligations upon the people and Legislature of a State, but they are not legislative directions to the officers, temporarily iu position, lo pay out the given funds without further appropriation by the Legislature. Such plcdses, in the language of Chief Justice Lowne, in Sunburry & Co. vs. Cooper, are "to be enforced by means of the moral sense of the community operating npon the Legislature, and by means of the moral sene of the civilized world operating upon both the people and the gislatnre an influence anil responsibility to which all States are subject." 7 Am.

In exact accord with this decision is. as we un derstand it, the case of Clendenin vs. Frazier. 1 nd . 5"3. , The act upon which that decision was made, is founl in the general laws of the Sute for 1843, at psjre CI. That all the Constitutional and statutory pro visions, except one. relied spon in this case as appropriations for the payment of interest on the public debt are but State pledges is mostsatisfac torilj ahown irrHhe opinion by Judge H anna in the case ml The State, ic. vs. Ristine, at this rm, and criticism. Lc. upon those sections need not be repeated bete It is freely admitted ; it is beyond cavil, that an obligation is created, hy inch pledges, on the part of the state, to make an appropriation ; but, in the language of judge Johnson in the great case of Newell rs. The People. 3 Seldn (N. Y.) Rep. 9, on page 104, "An appropriation is always necesary to effect actual payment, though he obligation is as complete without the appropriation as with it." Thus, the United States has, from lime to time, in the course of her history, entered into treaty with foreign, nations whereby she has engaged most solemnly to pay specified sums of money, at fixed times, which treaties, the Constitution of the United States declares were "the supreme law nf the land;" (Art. 6, 8ec 2;) and yet no instance is within our recollection where it has been contended for a moment that executive or administrative officers could pay those exactly specified sums, thus due, and on the payment of which the peace ol the nation might depend, without a further appropriation by Congress of the money, unless it had been thus appropriated in advance ol the treaty, as has sometimes been the case. We cite, as an example, the treaty with Mexico, concluded Feb ruanr 21, lt43, (Acts of Congress, p. SGlJjan.l the appropriations for its execution ; (Acts of Congres, 1849, p. 72, See 1, Benton's Deh , p. (125 ) We excepted, above, one provision of the statute as not being a State p'edge. It is the 1 6th sec. of the act of 1859. which act is entitled "An act to provide a treasury system for the State of Indiana, for tbe manner of receiving, holdiug and disbursing the public moneys of the State, apd for the safe keeping of the public moneys." 1 O, & II , p. 615. 'We have already copied the section above, bet we here set it forth again. It is this: . . "At rorae convenient period, prior to the falling due of the interest on the foreign debt of the State, payable at New York. the Treasurer shall, without making any discrimination, draw on the bank no' es in the Treasury an amount of specie sufficient to pay said interest, which he shall transmit to New York by express, or otherwise, as may be deemed most safe; but at any bank or batiks on whose notes specie is thus demanded, may redeem such notes to the extent of such dividends, by dtrtl on laew York, payable fifteen days preceding the day of pnymeni of said interest, and without any premium of exchange, and giving ample security to the Treasurer for the prompt payment thereof." Th a title of the act of which this section forms a part, says nothing about appropriations; and the section contains no direction as to whom the money is to be sent, even; nor what shall be done with it after it reaches the city, but it does direct the Treasurer very particularly bow and when he

; shall -transfer money to New York, the kind of

' funds. Lc; anil it is so clearly shown iu the opin ions of Judge Ilanna. above cited, that the sec tion reaches no further than snch directions as to ' maniier, &c. wher a previous appropriation and warrant authorize him to n:ake a transfer, that lurther eluciJation is unnecessary; but as so much stress is 1kj upon the section, we add a remark touching, it, to what has been said. It is not a direction addressed to the two officers, the Auditor and Treasurer who must concur in paying a debt, but to the Treasurer alone.who cannot perform the act required of him without a previous warrant, and it directs him in the discharge of his separate duties after a warrant from the Anditor has been furnished him, whioh warrant cannot issue till after an appropriation has been made. The section was enacted under the title nrescrib ing the manner of "keeping and transferring money. Perhaps the appropriation of money to be transferred might be so properly con nected with the subject of the title as to render valid an appropriation section in the act, had one been placed in it. This we need not decide. The question is. did the Legislature intend that that section should constructively include an ap propriation? A' ne means of answering this question, let us supTise that in the act of which that section forms a part, prescribing the manner of transferring money to New York, the Legis Kture had added, immediately following section 16, as follows: "Sec 17. And the sum of $320,000 is hereby appropriated to pay the interest on the public debt for the year 1&59, to be transmitted, i.e., in tlie mode prescribed by law." Would anybody then have contended that section 16, also, contained an appropriation of the same sum of money? We think not. Well, just this, in effect, was done by the Legislature , for four days after the passage of section 16. and before the Treasurer was to act under.it, the Legislature enacted another separate section, under the proper title, makinsr the appropriation. ' This was Ihe clearest kind of coiemporaneous exposition. See t ;e opinions i Judge Hanna, tupra. Now, if section 16 was not an appropriation section when the Legislature enacted it, it has not become one since that time. .We will briefly notice one other section of the ft itute : ; The third section of an act entitled "An act in relation to applying certain funds therein named to the pa v ment of the public debt, "approved January 13, lfc'32, U v follows: "That all the revenues derived from the sale of any of the public works belonging lo the State, and the net annua income thereof; and any surplus that may remain in the treasury derive! from taxation for general purposes, after paving the ordinary expenses of Government nud in'erest on the State stocks, other than ihe oritin 1 londs not surrendered, and t!.e State Bank bonds, be applied towards paying the principal of the State debt, aa hereinafter provided " (I. G & II , p. 5.13 ) Re enacted. (Acts 16G1. p. 10S.) . "This .section profe-ses to dispose of any surplus there is in the State Treasury after paying the ordinary expenses of the State government and the interest on ihe State debt, bnt it does not make appropriations for either of those purposes. The money in the treasury is first to be applied to the expenses of th Government, next to the payment of the interest on the State debt, and finally to the principal of the State debt. "If this section appropriates money to pay the interest, it is equally au appropriation to pay the expenses of the State government, and no legislation is necessary for any State expense. . "If it be answered to this, that it can not fi tve this effect, because the expenses of the State can only be ascertained by legihlation; the reply is immediate and sufficient, that if the State expeu sescau not be ascertained because the Leuiwla lure have passed no appropriation bill, then this section can not be an appropriation of interest, for it is not to be paid until after the ordinary expenses of the State government, and until that is ascertained, it can not be kuoaii, in any ligal form, whether there will rem iin any money in the treasury after the ordinary expenses are paid. "Tins section cleirly does not appropriate any money upon either of the two first mentioned ob jects." . By the section, if it is an appropriation, all the moneys iu the treasury are appropriated first to the expenses of the State government, and the State officers are left to determine what should be considered as .such expenses, and would be justified in pay-in? out every dollar on State expenses, such ns extra nes-iotis of the Legislature, increas ed xuiliti a ex;icnses, arsenals, now ordinary objects ol State expanses, &c, and as the State expenses ruu through the whole year and no interest could be pVid till all the State expanses were paid.thrre could be no p i y ment, under this section, of the July Interest, which comes before, not after the paying of the expenses of the Government The construction of this section contended for, revives the worst habit of official discretion in the use of the public mcn.eys, prac'ked in the days of the Tudor nnd Stuarts. The section was never intended but to as.-ert a principle, to make a pledge. Ifthesect-on lud specified a fixed sum which might le applied to the expenses of the State, as it would have dune had it been intended to ni ke u appropriation, especially from year to ieir, tor all time, then the officers could have known, a July, mhviher there waa money in the 1 rei.-ury to meet other uid Liter appropriations for imprest, t.

A New York paper makes the following com ments upon the interruption at the great Vallasdigham meeting at Newark, New Jersey, on Saturday lust: : The scenes attending the Vallandigham sympathy meeting at Newark, on Saturday evening last, will arrest the attention of the whole country. It will be seeu that the military authorities did what they could to provoke a riot, and that a scene of blood did not ensue is due only to the wisdom and firmness of the Mayor and the for bearance of the attending- thousands. It would seem, from what has receutly taken place in va rious parts of the country, that the authorities are doing what they can to provoke a collision between the soldiers and the Democrats, with a view'to setting the army against the conserv tive party. So far the Democrats have not fallen into the trap. It is an entirely new thing iu this country to place armed soldiers on guard over public meetings to overawe the speakers, and it would naturally be expected that when first attempted, especially when attended by ctuel insults to unarmed civilians, it would provoke an outbreak. Thanks to the political tmining of our people this has not yet occurred, and we hope that no provocation, however great, will Umpt Democrats into the fatal mistake of committing any even . the (lightest breach of the peace. Nine tenths of the army, as we now find by the returning solders, arc with the conservative party of the North, and nothing must be done to create any antagonism between them. . Patience, forbearance, and a strict regard for the law must mark the conduct of all conservative men in this trying crisis.

Tlie Malt Debt Interest Question.

We publish this morning the opinions of Judge Hassa and Judge Pcbkixs. of the Supreme Coert, upon the question presented to the Court whether the Auditor of Sute has any authority to" issue a warrant upon theTresc-y for the pay ment of the semi-annual interest upon the State debt due on the 1st of Julv next, or tbe Treas urer of State to pay' said interest out of the funds in the Treasury without a warrant from the An ditbr. The Court are unanimous in the opinion that there is no law authoriziug the payment of tbe interest or which would justify them iuso do ing. As this is a matter in which the good faith and credit of Indiana is involved, we trust the opinions of the Court, w hich we regard incontrovertible, will be carefully read and considered by every citizen of tbe Slate In 1S46 (the State having failed to pay the iu terest upon the public debt for some years) i compromise was made with her creditors, they releasing one half of the indebtedness for new obligations and for the other the Wabash and Erie Canal and the lauds unsold which had been appropriated by the General Government for its construction the State pledging its faith for the punctual payment of the interest on the new bonds.. In 1659, the Legislature, in view of the loose manner in which the financial affairs of the State had been conducted, enacted a strin gent law prohibiting the , Auditor and Treas urer oi state from withdrawing any money from the Treasury uuless in pursuance of appro priations made by law. The General Assembly of that y ear placed its construction upon that act by providing for the payment of the interest upon the State debt for the ucced;!ig two years, in the general appropriation bill. . In lt6l the Leg islature passed what is known as the embezzle ment law, providing heavy penalties for any vio lation of the law establishing a Treasury system, hich bad been enacted two years previous The General Assembly of lc61 also provided for the pa jmeiit of tbe intereft upon the public debt for the tvo succeeding year iu the general ap propriation bill. There was a majority of Democratic members in both branches of the Legislature of 1663, which assembled in January last. They wereconstitn tionaliy elected, and represented the sentiments of a majority of the people of Indiana.. Several bills upon maasures of public policy were ma tured by ' the majority of the Legislature, and were presented for its consideration. Some of thee were objectionable to the minority. . The Constitution requires that no law can be enacted unless a quorum of each House shall be present, and it is made to consist of two-thirds of the members of each branch of the Legislature. The Constitution restricts the sessions to sixty-one days, and all Ijwd must be enacted within fiftynine days Thirteen day previous to the expira tion of the Constitutional term of the Legislature and before the appropriation bills necessary to sustain the State Government and provide for the payment of the obligations of her creditors, a sufficient number of the Republican members of the lower House to break a quorum,, bolted, left the city, and thus blocked the wheel of leg islation and prevented the adoption of necessary laws to meet the indebtedness of the State to her creditors. A. minority of the Republican mem hers seceded with the full knowledge that their act would stop legislation. A Republican mem ber pronounced this proceeding as mean treason, as violative of the' constitution, as the with drawal of South Carolina from the Union. The seceding Republican minority of the Legislature went to Madison, on the Ohio river, so aa to be able to get out of the jurisdiction of the State in case any measures should be adopted to compel them to return to the discharge of their con stitutional obligations, and they remained away until after the time had elapsed for the constitutional enactment of laws. The apology of the secessionists for bolting, was their fear that a military law would be adopted, which they declared to be objectionable on partisan grounds not only, bnt unconstitutional. But in tins regard they are without ex cuse. If they had remained iu their seats they could have defeated this bill by constitutional legislative expedients, and they were also ad vised that it could not pass the Senate. And if the proposed bill was unconstitutional, as alleged, the courts could have so decided, and thus inideit a nullity. Such being the case, it must be conceded that' their action was revolutionary, and without , justification. Wheu they bolted it was with the full knowledge that their act would defeat the passage of the appropriation bills, and thus jeopardize and involve the cridit and faith of the State. They left with these facts stariug them in the face The seceding minority bolted with the knowledge, advice and approval of Governor Morton. He counselled them to, and justifies them in this violation of their oaths ofoifice He is more guilty than they, lor they would not have taken thia revolutionary step without his agreement to stand by and uphold them. The time is near at hand for the Treasurer of State to place funds in the city of New York to to meet the accruing July interest upon the State debt. The Governor, too, under such circumstances, atdtcd the Auditor aud Treasurer of State to assume the responsibility of withdrawing money from the treasury fur that purpose, aud argued that the laws compromising the State debt were in eilect a continuous appropriation which au thorized them to do so. They could not place uch a construction upon those acts. To test this question, the President of the Sinking Fund applied for a mandate directing the Auditor lb draw his warrant upon the treasury to pay tbe interest. Judge Fixch, of this circuit, first allowed the mandate. From this decision an appeal was taken to the Supreme Court. The Judge then changed hi decision and refused to allow a mandate, and from this decision au ap peal was taken to the court of last resort. The object of these suits was to decide tbe law in tbe case. The case was ably argued before the Supreme Court by Hon. Joseph . McDonald and Messrs. Hand & Hall in favor of the mandate being issued, and by the Attorney General, Oscar B. Uokd and Hon. Thomas A. Hkndricks against its ksue. The Supreme Court, after a full investigation of the questions at issue, bare decided that tbe State officers have no authority to pay the interest unless in pursuance of specific legislative appropriations. Tbe Court in our opinion makes the case so clear that there cannot be a reasonable doubt of the correctness of their decision. Tbe Journal charges corruption uron the Court and that it has beeu influenced by partisau sympathies. When tbe Governor and bis political friends can controvert the opinions of the Court, it will then be time to make such infamous aud malicious charges. The decision of tbe Court was made early, so aa to give the Governor the opportunity to apply toe remedy at his control. The Constitution authorizes him to assemble tbe Legislature in special session whenever tbe public interests demand it. He has ample time to do so. Tbe Legislature can be assembled in ten days, early enough to .pass the necessary laws to pay tbe iuterest and place it in New fork be fore it becomes due. The responsibility cow rests with the Governor. If he does not assemble the Legislature, it will not be an exhibition of firmness, but of stubbornness. And if tbe interest is not paid, he and his party friends will be chargeable with all the disgrace which may attach lor this violation of the good faith and honor of the State they will be guilty of causing repudiation. There is no escape from this dilemmaand worse than dilemma, crime. ' We understand that the Governor is receiving the moneys due tbe Sute, and payiug them out under bis own direction and by bis own officers. This, he haa no right to do. ' We, also, learn that he has issued a circular to the officers of various counties in the Sute, calling on them for advances to him The county officer have no right to make such loans, and they are void in law. All these acts are violations of the Constitution, and every good citizen should discountenance tbem. The evils now upon the country were caused by a disregard of constitutional obligations, and they should not be repeated upon a small scale in Indiana, from the same cause. Every proposal to violate the Constitution , should be resisted, come from what source it may. .. ...... .

TELECRAPHIC.

Sunday Yighl Pispatclie. ... From New York. New YoaK.'June 7. The Times special from the army of the Potomac, dated the bto, gives particulars of our crossing the ltappahannock, The crossing was very unexpected. Two pon toons were , laid at f ran thus crossing, one mile below Fredericksburg. , As Soon as the army discovered our purpose they fired on our men from their rifle pits, but were driven out by the 26th New Jersey. Some sixty of the 2nd Florida were captured. - We lost five killed and about - twenty-five . wounded. . Our forces ad vanced cautiously, and by dark they reached the Bowling Green road and posted their rickets for the night. This audacious movement surprised mnv of our own officers not less than the ene my. It was probably a reconnoisance by which our Commanding General hoped to obtain posi tive information regarding the enemy's inten tions. This morning enough was ascertained to locate the ereater portion of the enemy's force. We took nearly 100 prisoners including one Aiftjor. : - i . During the night Lee marched two corps back from the vicinity of Salem Church to a position in I rout cf our lines. longstreet s corps rein I ore ed tne troops in Fredericksburg and slept there last night. This morning thev moved in a southerly direction, t ; By this bold movement we have demonstrated to a certainty what has become of the enemy, besides divining his purpose. The meu behaved in the most gallant manner. The movement has thrilled the army with excitement and with impa tience, n The Government to night received official dis patch from Vicksburg, which, while sUting the siege continues, makes no mention of startling importance. . Headqvabtebs, Akmt of the Potomac June 6, lb63. The Times special savs: From prisoners taken last evening I have ob tained copies of the Richmond Whig and Dis patch of June 5.

The Confederate Loan fluctuated greatly on the receipt of the news of the death of Stonewall Jackson. Reports of a probable armistice and prospect of buroxpean offers of mediation between the ?iorlh and the South, are revived ui London. The Times, in speaking of Hooker's address, says: . -. "If this document were received without an thentication, if might pass for a hoax." The Times ridicules the pen and sword of the Federal commander. Hookers style and rheto ric is not without a faux pas. American securities have all advanced: con. sols, 93g93l2, for money. The charge for advances on stock exchange was 3)4 per cent... . - A great meeting had been held at Sheffield, which favortd the recognition . of the South, Ten thousand persons were present.
