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." (Journal, p

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.
General Washington not only held court

The Plaintin demurred.
Per. .12, Ofnn "Act" passed Junnnry,

U not questioned tint tho Inxe for the year

of restoring the civil authority, Washing
