Tl.cy ore m a w'io.j terrible m iloriune it has betn to be b-ni aid bred under a system the most crul and demor alizing tht world ever saw. The wisest cf those who hr been subjected to such a surrounding have confessed it evil power.

The nan must be a prodigy "bo can retain hi manners and hii morals under such eircuai stances." ( -Note'," P. 270.) These are the babitea! result's cf the system. To what incredible excess fti occasion al outbursts may run wt have frightful cvl dtnees dally eom'ng before ; scheme of wholesale incendiarism, Involving deaths by the thousand of women and children ; schemes to poison, by the malignant viru! of the yellow favtr, an entire community ; deliberate plant to deitroy prisoners of war by insufferable bardthlps ami slow suffering ; plot!, too seceestfal, alas I to sbroad a cation la Dwarolog by asiasiica tloo.

If this last class, wbenoe have come the sturdiest Union mc in SectHioedom. con illtutcd, like the mechanic of New Kog. land or the farmer of the Weil, a large proportion of the population, we might hope that It would leaven and redeem the extreme of society around It. Hut It la found spurn and in inconsiderable num bers, except, perhaps, in Kastern Tennessee nnd (be northern portion of North Oaro lisa. The poor whites, of whom the eiuy- eating pine-lander of Georgia and other Gulf States is the type, fir outnumber them. Of this last das, Mrs. Fanny Ktmblt, In that wonderful book of bers. " Journal of a Residence on a Southern Plantation,' gives, from personal obser vation, a graphic description : 'They are. I suppose," tbe rays, "the most degraded race of human beings, claiming an Anglo b'axoti origin, that ein be found on the face of the earth filthy, lazy, Ignorant, brutal, proud, penniless savage, without cut of the nobler attributes that have been Mod occasionally allied to the vice of savage nature. They own no slaves, for they are. almost without exception, abjectly poor; they will not work, for that, as they conceive, would reduce them to an equality with the abhorred negroes ; tbev squat and steal and slant on the outskirts of this lowest of all civilised societies, and their countenances bear wile to tire squalor of their condition ami the utter degradation ol tbeh natures."

Lmii omnia vlnolt Labor conquers all Who has the power to declare tbe writ of Aaceos corpus suspended, or lo declare martial law ! This question has perplexed srcod and great men. and great differences ut opinion have existed, and still exist on the sabji-et. This question can be best solvul by the aetioti of the Govtrcnstai and tbe commanding officers. We have shown that tbe writ wee las ponded by the Ceetinental Cengresf. and martial iuw enforced by Geneml Washing ton, General Scott, General Jackson, Gen. cral MeCWIan, Governor Stereos, and the rebel Jeff. Davit. Hut It may be mid that General Wash ington ordered court mart la Is umler the old articles of confederation ; and therefore, It is not good authority as r precedent for the guidance of the President and com mandlng General under Ihe Cowtltutlon.

In .1 letter to tbe commander or the army, lie ay : " I consider this insurrection as the first formidable fruit of the Democratic Socic ties, brought forth, I bellett, too prema turely for their own les, which may contribute to the annihilation of litem. 1" mat mese societies were iniiiiutcu by the artful and deigning member (many of their body, I have no doubt, mean well, but know little of the real plan), primarily to sow among the people the seeds of Jealousy and distrust of the government, by destroying all couDdeuce In the admin titration ef It, aud that these doctrine have been budding and bloning ever lnee, Is not new to any one who is acquainted with the character of their leaders, and has been attentive to their maneincr. 1 early gave It as my opinion lo theconuMin tial characters around me, that if the so cletiee were not counteracted, or did not fall into diicstrem from the knowledgo or their origin, ami the views wills nhich thry lud been instituted by their fulher, Genet, tut purposes well known to Ihe government, they wouU shake the government to its foundation."
