The eighth declares that it is tho dirty of the Administration at this crisis, to abandon party jilatfornis, to step forth upon the broad platform of the (Jonstitution and to expel corrupt men from office. Any objec tion to that resolution? W e presume the Demoornt lias an “ internal!” objection to this particular one ; but will it speak for it self? 't’he ninth admits the necessity of martial law .md summary processes among insurgent opulations, bat it protests againk the arbi- ■ary and illegal abuses of power of which the Executive has been guilty, in destroying sundry newspapers, airesting various individ uals without regard to law or legal forms, and Sanding them to prison without trial or even exam ination; and it also protests against the ridiculous doctrine of the Presi^ dent that the States derive their authority from the Federal Government. To the adoption of this resolution we frankly con fess we are opposed. And we among others labored with the Uommittee to have it stnick it before the resolutiona were reported to e Convention. The Committee did strike by a majoi sibly the tiorjs to this add to them. from our coteraporary on the subject. To the correctness of most of the positions set forth in this important resolution we cheer- faliy certify. But our' objections in brief were that the moti-cc of the protest against the Executive usurpations was lia’ole to misconstruction ; and that it is of vital iraportaneo at this critical juncture to avoid even a setnl/lance of division among the Peopie of tho luyal ates on the question o f putting forth their lolc power to crush this .great Rebellion.— For that reason— we preferred to leave the incontrovertable truths embodied in that res olution uaasserted for the present. But the Convention preferred to assert them; and we are by no means sure that tho Conven tion wag not right. W e should say. however, that the suspension of the writ of habeas iurpus by tho Execiitivo in sundry cases has net our hearty .approval—in cases where it hrs but too evidently been counted ol the refu; cases the K: sibility; but it is one in ’ ’sustained by every loyal dangerous of the uiurpat are) embraced nnd cond.?rnne< lutioii, is tiurt of authorizing 1 citizi.-ns by tha IY*< warrant i him into d on as one 1 .
