To strike st single blow ;

This war, according to Mr. Lincoln's Inaugural,
arose out ol a claim on one side and a denial on
the other ol constitutional right.s. "All persons
profess," said he, ''lo be salislicd with the Constitution, provided their rights sue respected. Hut
what are those rlgfctel Upon quest ions of which
the Constitution bas not expressly spoken we dl~
Yido into majorities and minorilcH, and if the in in
orlty will not submit the majority must,''
Of course, in u war arising tml. of a   dispute  o1
conBtrutttJodt one would suppose that the regular
government would be most Intensely scrupulous of
these rights actually expressed In the Constitution
and which (according to the same inaugural) "it
is difficult to conceive any one audacious enough
to viohtte ;" but such has nnt been the experience
ol tfift eeuntry, Cau any man Had any constitutional authority lor Uie proposition to the loyal
htave Slates to compensate emancipationi Can
any one find any such authority for the admission
of Western Virginia, or for the partial representation Of Louisiana 1 We do mil. brie Usui fault wllu
not exercising the Constitution over rebels,hut for
USUrpatlOQB over ourselves. We sire to be governed by lhe representatives of a bogus State, to be
legislated for by lhe members whom a military
governor has caused to be elected. These measure
hurt not the rebels ; they Injure us. .So tbe arbitrary as sestS n-vri look a in nil from this enemy, but
they outraged and iu suited every man in th
community.
Those acts, for which lhe President is specially
responsible, are acts which exclude the hope of
peace by submission more effectually than aolumns
of speeches exciting fratricidal hate between tlse
free and slave States. The great fear ol the South
was thai the love of and great respect for the Constitution biiei died out of the Northern heart.
Therefore ttie lirst great principle of this war
should have bu*jii to prove to itieui Itie mistake ;
bul instead of thut the epithets of Traitor and Copperhead are applied to Northerners who recognize
laws us their sole rulers, and are parly men only

Ttie following bit of court gossip is given   by   tbe
London correspondent of the Birmingham Pest;
"01 course the charming young Dane is a princess born, but sliil of a modest and comparatively
humble house. I am told that, like Penelope, she
is not unaccustomed to embroidery, and that, she
is rsilher proud, indeed, of her cleverness with her
needle, There are many well authenticated stories
of the simplicity of manners at our pure and well
Ordered court, but what would Mrs, Grundy say if
she were assured on Indubitable authority that a
certain young princess actually offered in a playful
mood, to show a proof of her nimbtenesa of finget
by newly trimming the bonnet of a Queen regnat?
When, after much entreaty and a great deal of
laughing, the desired permission bas been given,
ihe hnlie-sin wailing, remarked that the ehapeau
when it is brought back is much lighter and more
cheerful looking than before, Their quid; ey
Boon discover that it has been divested of a grcsit
deal of crape. Perhaps it certain royal personage
made tbe same ditcunery. Perhaps the young
Princess stood timid atid trembling, Wondering
whether the loving hint, would be kindly taken.
A little bird has whispered that after a momentary
sigh she received a hearty and affectionate kiss
end '.bul. several pairs, of loving eyes, by a not unnatural coincidence, brimmed and ran over at the
same moment."
A lione JuDtsi;.—In tliu U. S. District Court in
Chicago, oil tbe 3d nil., in granting a motion by
counsel for the Chicago Times establishment,
which hud been peized by order of General Burns-tide, Judge Drummond took occasion to use the
following Isold and (as the world goes) treasonous
language.    Said he :
"1 may be pardoned for saying that personally
and officially I desire to give every aid and assistance in my power to the Government and Administration in restoring tbo Union, but I have
always wished to treat the government as a Government of Luw and a Government of the Con-
sli union, and not us a Government of mere physical
force. I personally have contended, and shall
contend, for Ihe right of free discussion and the
right- of commenting, under the law and under the
Constitution, upon the acta of the officers of lhe
Government," Three mouths ago that, speecli
would have landed Judge Drummond in lhe deepest and darkest dungeon in Van Lafayette; and
would now consign biui lo the gallows if lhe minions of despotism dared to farther provoke tbt
long-slumbering hut partially aroused spirit ol
tbe people.

Those evenings in lhe bleak December,
Curtained warm from snowy weather,
Wheu you and I played chess tofjs iher,
Checkmated by each other's eyen?
Ah, still I see your soft white hand
Hovering warm o'er Queen and Knight.
Brave Pawns in valiant battle nIhucj:
The double Castles guard the witiiis:
The Bishop bent on distant things,
Moves, sliding   through the fiitht;
Our (iuiiors louch; our glaucs meet,
And tatter: falls jour golden hair
Against my cheek; your bosom sweet
Is heaving. Down the 8eld, your Queen
Hides slow her soldiery all between,
Ami checks me unawnre.
Ah, me !  the little battle's done,
Dispersed in all ils chivalry;
Full msiny a move sisice then have we
'Mid lile's perplexing chequers made,
And many a game with fortune played—■

This, this at least—if ibis alone;—

If there is any one right of lhe Americai
pie more fully established than nnother, it
right to- discuss the measures of our rulers,
is a right as old as the Anglo-Saxon race, and it
infringement has never failed to create popular re
sentmetit, whether in a time of peace or time of
war. Only in November last, the leading spirit
of lhe present cabinet ollicinlly confessed this right
iu answering'one of the charges against the present Administration circulated in England. It was
In November Inst that Mr. Seward wrote to Minister Adams as follows!
"In this country, especially it is a habit not only entirely consistent with lhe Constitution, but
even essential loits stability, lo regard the Administration at any lime existing as distinct and
separable from ibe government itself, and to canvass tiie proceedings ul one without the thought
of disloyalty to the other."
This sediment was expressed avowedly in the
name of lhe President. By what miracle Ifl it
that ihe President, Cabinet, and whole Republican parly are now ftourUhing bayonets aud filling
prisons to repress thia "habit*' which Mr. Seward
declared to be even essential to lhe stability of
the Government? Did or did not Seward assert a
truth when he wrole that letter? What is tbe occasion of Ibis falsity to the first principles of the :
Government, of this betrayal of freedom, aud ol
this Hell-stultification en the part ol lhe authorities of the Und ? Far ourselves, we can see no
justification for it in morals or justice, |o military
or political necessity. It is a wattlon abuse of
power—an unprovoked and gratuitous assault upon civil liberty, which no circumstances can excuse and no logic pallitate.—.Milwaukee News,

"Oh, that our honest poopl« of the north could
come here and be behind lhe curtain a few weeks;
bow they would hold Up their bands in holy horror at peeing poor Uncle Sam rubbed on efrery
side by those who are so intensely patriotic thai
they would, to use their own words, hang s-frery

We have an army of these patriots here, who
imagine ihey are practicing their i aacality without tear of discovery.
gome very rich de+elopments will take pfaco
in afew days showing in what manner fortunes are
made in this department^ and how men come here
very poor and in a few mouths, leave for the north
with a pocket fuil of plunder. An examination is
now going on in regard to levying black mail thai
seriously compromises some high government officials. The proof in now belore Gen, Emory, and
it is of the rnont positive character, 80 much so
that it is impossible fof the parties abovn referee! lo
escape. They had got wind of the affair, and were
to have left on the steamer of the 29th ; hut Ihey
have been held over by the authorities in order to
await the result of the examination now going on.
The charge now under iuvesfigalion is but cue of
a series of Ihe same character, some of them Invnl
ving large amounts ot money, and I shell ba much
mistaken if you do not in a very short time have a
history of some of ttie greatest villainies ever perpetrated in this or any other country. Verily this
department tt<N(7 a den nf thieves.- A private
sale of Otte thousand bales of cotton, lately made
bare by a government official, is also (o be inretl-
igated ; for it was contrary to the law of Congress on the subject. A merchant, remarked 'o me
lhe day after it was sold that lie would have paid
one cent a pound more for the cotton at auction
than was paid for it at private sale. This would
have made a difference ol So,000 in favor of the
government."
