Wben Louialho fourteenth declared lfimsc-lf Die State, li introduced anew principle which oveitbrew the liln:ities of Europe. Prior to this, the European nations under the feudal system, were, in fact, semi-republics. Tlmy were hut confederacies of the great Baronies, into which the European Kingdoms were divi ded after the fall of tho Unman empire. The sovereignty, the government of the State, was lodged in tho great Barons, with their vassals and retainers, who with the King as chief Feu. datory, as Lord Paramount of tho realm, de clared war and concluded pe:ic», and exer cised other powers and functions of sovereign ty. Each of these baronies was a sovereign State, within Itself, often exercising the rights ol sovereignly, even to lire extent of levying war on if; own account. Without the consent of his J 1 irons, who often defied his authority, the King could neither carry on war, nor con dude peace, for they furnished and command ed the annies which fought ids battles. Louis in Grand, having, in tho protracted wars which distinguished Ills reign, organized a vast standing army obedient to his behests, struck down at one blow the sovereignty oi the Baronies, the States of the realm, and ab t- a bed in his own person all lie: powers of the Kingdom. “1 am the State,” was his impe rious declaration. That declaration embodied ganisation, and what remained of republican liberty. Then -forward, the King was supreme and absolute- lie was emphatically Iho Stale, the government. Centralization, consolida tion, absolutism, rose on the ruins of the Feu dal republics. Europe languished ’under tho baleful shadow of despotism, it has only been through tho (Ires of revolution, th it slie has been able to regain any portion of her lost Jilierticri. Ever since Louis the Fourteenth uttered that tapioudeclaration, a controversy has raged between the champions of two opposite theoiies of government the theory of absolu tism, tint the King is the State, that Ihe Exe cutive of the nation is the government ; and Inc*. cu..-.-.e.i fcarvunts, (;• :i> :. • ta. iv..poi;.-.oi» . the execution ol ihe iiusi.. The Stalys oi North America, which threw olf the British yoke, adopted the latter theory, in stituted a common government—a common agency for their common benefit; defining and limiting flu powers liy a written constitution- Ignoiing the true theory of this government, a party at tho North claimed for it absolute power, in contempt of tho lights and sovereign ty of Uie Slates. This servile and fanatical party sets up the tho monstrous assumption that tho servants <Jr.men by the people, the agents selected by the States to administer tho common government, are themselves tho gov ernment. As. IV lie . :i corolla,.-}-, tlioeK «]■•- phunts of power assume that any opposition to these servants and agents of tho people —any criticism of their acts % however un constitutional, by those who appointed them, and to whom they’are responsible, is opposi tion to tlu government —is treason ot tho deep est dye. Ami for such treason, newspapers have been •suppressed and citizens, without process of law, immured iti bastiles, or banished to foreign lands. Like Louis tho Fourteenth, Lincoln declares: ‘‘l am the Bbilo, and whoever opposes me, whoever calls In question my acts or my policy, is an enemy of tho State, and a traitor to its government.’' But we are happy to know that there is a groat and growing party at the North, which does not admit that Abraham Lincoln is tho government, and which we trust will in November next, overthrow the usurper and his absurd pretensions. \Vo luvo a patty at the South atul hero in the State of Georgia, which sM.s up identically the same pretensions fur the agency, the ad ministration at Richmond, with equal ignorance, impudence, and arrogance that it is the Government; and that any op position to its measures, or criticism of Its acts, is opposition to tho Government. Either through mental "blindness and imbecility, or a willful ami deliberate intention to subvert the cardinal principles of our political system, these champions of arbitrary power fail or roltise to draw the obvious distinction between the Confederate Government, the government al machinery which the Slabs havo'oreated and own, ami tho men whom they have selected to run that machinery, to administer that Gov ernment. Adopting the style of the Lincoln organs the truculent and subsidized progs of the Northern usurper, they perpetually talk of the administration at Richmond its the Govern ment, and affect to denounce opposition to any of its mentbow, or even subordinates, as hostility to the ftovornraent itself. In the columns of the administration organs we observe this perpetual confounding of things and terms entirely distinct—the government and its agents constantly spoken of ns identical, and any animadversions upon any of their acts, denounced as hostility to the government. Even the Governor of a sovereign State is hec tored and nbused, for daring to entertain or express an opinion at variance with the Itich_ mondofficials, lie, too, forsooth, is belabor, ed as an opponent of the government. In their lind adoration of a centralized power, they see but one. government—the ndminlsiration at Richmond—losing sight of the fact that there is. also, a government in their own State, which has some rights and some pretensions to sovereignty. It is the government, reiterated with fulsome aud sickening adulation—meaning thereby not the constitution, not the balanced powers and departments which it lias established, but the President, as si lie. tho chief of only one of its departments, wore tho government itself. An enlightened people, jealous of their rights aud sovereignly, wilt visit with prompt condemna tion, this ini lions 'attempt to subvert the fun damental theory ct their government, and ..live it .» •mn power— a centralized ana ' -poiisiu.

His raiding experiment has proved an iguoiaiuious failure. Out glorious army, commanded by the intrepid and invincible Ilood, opposes a living wall of de fiant valcr to bis further advance. He-has reached the termination of bis campaign, though not the goal of Lis ambition. It is supposed that, like Grant, he has com menced mining—the dcinier resort of a de feated Yankee General. But digging will not accomplish his purpose. 'I lie spade .will not avail him. Supposing, even, that he may succeed in effecting a breach in our line of for tifications, it will likely prove a deadly breach to him, as it did to Grant at I’eten burg. Our unconquerable troops are ready to meet him in the breach, and fill up the chatm he may make with the dead bodies of his negroes and foreigners, as did the gallant Maiione. En filading fires may mow down his ranks, and pile up hecatombs of dead Yankees to the Nemesis of Southern vengeance. Or-if lie should gain the rear of our fortifications, he will then have a battle to tight which in a!! probability will result in a disaster to his arms, more stupendous than any tint has yet covered them with defeat and disgrace. We feel an abiding confidence in tho success of G>m. Hood, and tho safety of Atlanta.

Wn antici pato for them a brilliant career, and doubt not that they will continue to add to tho laurels they had previously won on other fields. Largo additions have also boon made to the cavalry force of Gen. Hood's army, from other departments. And* the full supply of horses and accoutrements, taken from the Yankee raiders, will facilitate the remounting of many more. This important arm of tho service will hereafter be sufficiently strong both for offen sive and defensive purposes. Tho utility and effectiveness of cavalry aro becoming more apparent as the war progress es. The feats of Gen. Forrest, and Gens. Hampton, and Lac, have shown that they can. light baltU'R as well as infantry. Drill' das in fant iy, they can fight as such whenever occa sion requires,and with their celerity of move ment, they can strike unexpected blows, and inflict incalculable injury on the enemy.

Lawlessness or Rei-i-blican I.kVpebs —Wm Lloyd Garrison, one of the original abolition ists, is now among tho recognkred leaders ot tho Lincoln party, lie goes vehemently for Lincoln's election, and (ho other Lincoln or gans applaud his talent and influence. Garri son says: “ As to any fears that Judge Taney will un dertake to nullify tire proclamation, they seem to me groundless. Why, if Judge Taney, or the whole body of the Supreme Court together should dare to pronounce it null and void, Maryland herself is so tar changed in senti ment that she would strangle them and throw them into the Potomac.” This K,b said in a speech at a Lincoln meet ing in Boston, and the sentiment called forth “loud applause." The applauding of such a declaration by a large audience, composed of the men of the party in power, shows what frightful havoc lias been wrought upon the political morals of that party by three wissera blo years of blended anarchy, tyranny, mis rule and corruption.’ 7 The Central Railroad. — We are informed that the train which leaves here in the evening for Mason at a quarter to seven, arrives in it e y the next morning about nine o’clock.

Canadian Aitaiks.—lt appears from late Canadian advicet that tho Constitution of Canada is to be changed and that a Federal. Union between the Stales composing the Brit • ish Province in America is to be established. Here is what the correspondent of iho New ioik.Ti ibune says on the. subject: An event has occurred ot the gtcatest possi ble importance to the Province, and of some consequence to the neigboring States.* For two or three years the opposing parlies in the Legislature have been veiy evenly bal anced, and several successive governments havs endeavored to administer affairs with very small majorities, tha present administration, at the head of which stands Sir E P. Taebo, and which includes among its members Messrs. Cartier,Galtaud John A. Macdonaid, was de feated in tite House of Commons about, a week ago; and.it became necessary either to dis solve the House, or to strong then their position in it. Preferiinc the latter alternative, Hon. George Brown, editor of the Toronto Globe, WMS ilj'pCOMUhed, unt! tiic icnTinrTTt^-mrgA/ctxrtivurr with iiim is, that a Federal Government is to be established lor Canada, with provisions for the entry into the new Federal Union of New Brunswick, ‘ Nova Scotia, -Newfoundland, Prince Edward island," aud the Red lliver Ten itory. Tory little is known as yet of tho precise ti'a turo of tho scheme to bo devised but it appears to bo this, that members are to be elected to sit in flic Federal Assembly in numbers bearing some proposition to the population and re sources of tho several provinces, these mem bers to deal with general questions while sit ting to together, and then to resolve fhfimselves in the same place, (Oitawit) into local legisla tures,, dealing with local questions.

Large farms have thus been wholly robbed of labor, and the crops now go to waste, i'ho ne groes have been made to believe that it they volunteered that they would not only obtain, their own freedom, but would receive lour hun dred dollars bounty, thirty days’ furlough, with tlie privelegc oi going and bearing away their families ; that they would all remain in Kentucky, and In the course of six months the war would be over and they free. Thus tliousnnds have already been removed from the fields where the growing crops rc quirod their labor to the various camps es tablished for reception. This, too. in excess of what was due to Kentucky. And in South western Kentucky an officer, using gun-boats and Government transports as aids, was ac tively engaged with negro troops in forcibly taking hundreds of negroes from the fields to his camp ; in many instances taking all the hands on large tarms, leaving the crops to perish for want of cultivation. ~ As soon as Lincoln received this lotter.be issued a’proclamation announcing that martial law was in force in Kentucky.

Fbaskvort, Ky., July 4. Mr. J. W. Hour, Urbana, Ohio: DcarSii: : Yours of tbe 10th ult. together with LYhaua Union of the Tlh of January aud Bth of June reached me some days since, hav ing been delayed by the interruption of our mails consequent upon Morgan’s raid. The national policy advocated by you in the Urbana Union sent (o me, is the same consis tently held by me from the beginnigof the rebel lion to the present, time. Not being sufficient ly mobile in principle to change with the moving current of radicalism which now threatens to merge our national life into a war lo pi rpetuate a sectional, party ascendancy, 1 find myself in direct antagonism with’and as sailed hy radicals anil robe's. Having received no new light, I shall adhere to the sentiments ami views of jxdicy which im pelled me to give myself and my two sous to the service of my country. T o suppress the re bellion and restore the national authority over tho revolted states; to preserve the Union created by oirr Constitution, with the equality and lights of She people and the States, has been the paramount object which I have kept in view. All loyal men have held that the war was forced upon us by the rebellion, and that our object should bo the restoration of the nation til authority, and the preservation of the Union, witli Ihe equal rights of a'l the States and peo ple. No truly loyal maa ever conceived the idea of agreeing witli the rebels in proclaim :ng ihe t nion destroyed, anil tho necessity of having a “reconstruction” before we could have a Union. Loyal men hold to the faith of an unbroken Union ; that the peace of the country is broken by rebellion, and the national authority sus pended or interrupted in the revolted districts, but that tliiqUuioncontimfes to exists ns formed by the Constitution ; and Hie restoration of un f.ionai authority is all that legitimately awaits our efforts to suppress the rebellion. But anew war cry has gone lorth, “down with slavery ! v The rebellion is nothing—sla very everything. To reach it, the war must bo carried forward to its extermination. Tho doctrine that, by rebellion, States cetise to exist as States, and can only have being at the will oi the conqnerers, is started to sub serve this nefc- phase of the war. All who do not subscribe to this rebel dogma clothed in radical dress, are denounced as disloyal. I have lived and shall die in an adverse be lief. 1 bold that tho power is in Congres (Hot in tin: President) to admit Stnlos; and that no power is anywhere granted to exclude them -—but that onco a Stale, always a State in the Union, is the constitutional and loyal doctrine. No secession ordinance—no act of Congress, no proclamation of the President, can destroy the constitutional existence of a State once ad mitted according to the Constitution. Rebel lious citizens may be punished even with death; but the life of a State can only be reached by successful treason or usurpation. Natioanl au thority should be exerted to preserve its own just powers, as well as the “poweis reserved to the States respectively, or to tho people;” and tho people and States should exert all their powers to maintain each in its sphere. Unless this be done, disintegration by secession, or centralization by usurpation, will bo the re sulf, and the loss of our liberties the eonse seqence. Tho great purpose of restoring the national authority and preserverving the Union with the equality and rights of all the States, is now laid aside or abolished hy those in power, for tiie mere engrossing object of freeing the ne gro. This madness which substitutes an inci dent for an object, and a contingency for an aim and end, is one cause for protracting the war which yet go angrily crimsons our land with the warm heart’s blood of our noble sons, “fc'hoildies’-’—officeholders and office hunters —fanatics and rebels arc conjointly engaged against the present peace and future glory of our country. Like Jonah ihe curse of their, presence on board our bhip of State awakened the storm, and keeps alive the wrathful ele ments of rebellion, which threaten to engitlph our hopes in the common grave of ruin. Let the people whose sons are to bo victimized*-to tho mad schemes of radicalism, in the modes secured by our Constitution, cast these Jonahs overboard, and the wave will subside, and with the Union and the Constitution we will attain glide upon the peaceful and glorious voyage of coining ages. We want a President who will “control events” to just and safe issues, and not one who is “controlled hy events.” Believing the powers conferred by tho Con tio W-lNfOßti anti /.»ovuij-vmxn gency, we do not desire the Constitution vio lated under pretense of saving if, We- want the Union created by the Constitution,, and not a Union formed by orders or of a President. We desire a President wbm'ffiiHf not leave the helm of State to the guidancX»fli evenls, but who will the more firmly dirH* the rudder as the storm jjjiickens," and bravely battle against the destroying tempest of rebel -1 ion and radical ism. I nm profoundly grateful for the very kind and commendatory article of my old friend and companion-in arms; but really regret that my name was ever associated in connection with the second oilico. Trying as l have been, to serve my country and people to tho best of my abilities. I find lbo presentation of my name has been the occasion of renewing acts of an noyance and injustice to tho people of my State by those in power. But we are too well grounded in iho faith of our fathers to permit acts of maladministration to make us enemies of our Government. Such ncls may embitter the people against those who inflict the wrong and make them mot e ear nest in their determination at the proper time aud in the l ight way, to cast off those who thus abuse their powers. Tho ;ff(>iid spirit of my .people cannot ho broken to kiss the band that smites them, nor can they be driven into rebel lion. They know tho difference between the Government and a President, anil will not like radicals nnd rebels, confound tho two. Yours truly, • Tnos. E. Buaiilette. j-oiu ilia. THE DANISH WAR.

One went to the north, the other out to sea, after a while. The Bull Rock is just to the north of Banty bay. Scnrili is an Island four miles west of Darrynane and ten north of the Bull Rock. Your obedient servant, . Daniel O'Connell. • Killarney, July 10. Lincoln has infonnedjthe Indians on the res* ervatkm in New .York State, that the anomaly of a tribe organization within tho limits of a ttate, tan no longer be Supposed to exist, and Ithat they m or breakup Uk-jr tribal their lands’among KOBBIUX UiOjSMl*. The London correspondent of the Richmond Whig gossips thus concerning matters and things in England. The letter is dated June 11 ■ Mi-. Lindsay’s motion is again postponed for a fortnight, to await further news. One other objection is, that on Thursday next it is said the Opposition will make a strong effort to un seat the Ministry—which, if successful, is all that the friends of the South desire for the pre sent, thinking that the new Mini-tiy will re cognize Mr. Mason soon afterwards. [am not of the opinion that such will be the result, even if Lord Derby comes in, unless wo are the positioned not caring for recognition by reason of Gen. Lee and Geu. Johnston having thor oughly smashed the Yankee armies. Nor am 1 at all of the opinion that the Opposition can defeat Lord Palmerston. I have been assured that Palmerston has been quite favorably in clined towards us, even to the extent of assist ing gentlemen to eradicate the known preju dice cf Lord John Russell against us. The lat ter has been the stumbling block always, and has persistently defeated all efforts cither for recognition or mediation. Tou were mistaken in charging that Lord Russell was bribed. No English Minister couid be bribed. True, Lord Russell was a poor man two years since. Now they say he is rich. But the on dit in Court circles gives another , version to the story. Cassius Clay, it is said, arranged in Russia to use the secret service fund for Seward according to tlie European system, through titled Indies in the beef society. A Russian princess shortly afterwards, for (in civility extended to her by Lady Russell, pre sented the latter with her portrait. This you will see was very correct; and as Iho picture was encircled by the most magnificent dir moods—worth a million in gold—it was still more proper. Lord Russell subsequently only did liis duly, as between us and the Yankees, and, of course, we can have no right to object to Russian princesses making presents to Lmly Russell, who has no voice in the Council! Lord Brougham, strange to say, has come over completely to our side, and is to be one of a delegation to wait upon Lord Palmerston, in a few days, to urge him to take some action in our affairs. Tho delegation will be very impos ing and will consist of a dozen Peers of distinc tion, nnd as many more members of the House. You will see that consols are now very low, and that the money market is tightening. It is difficult to see upon wliat basis tho Danish war can be settled, and it is thought that Eng land will certainly prevent the Austrian licet from going to the Baltic. There is no telling what a day may bring forth, and tins ministry, which lias quietly looked on for three years, and seen our poo pie, a kindred race to themselves, subjected to all manner of atrocities, and our bravest and best slaughtered by the hundred thousand, without endeavoring, by moral effect, to cause a cessation of hostilities, may now, at a mo ment’s notice, lavish their millions of money aud all their effective strength, in a direct con flict for a race with which they have no acu ities, and no common ancestral traditions. However, Lord Russell, within the past week, has materially changed liis views, and strong hopes are entertained by the friends of the South that he will ultimately accept their 'resolutions, and agree to act. This lam told by one of our strongest friends—a member of Parliament, who wields great influence. Mr. Mason, though denied official recogni tion, has been overwhelmed with kind alien tions since his sojourp here, and lias many warm friends. Indeed, very few strangers have ever enjoyed such social kindness as has been tendered to him. IYOKTHISKA MCtYS. Gen. Butler has been a member of the Ameri can Tract Society.

OFFICIAL DISPATCH FROM GEN. MAURY. \ Mobile, Aug. 5. lion. J. A. Scddon : Seventeen of the enemy’s vessels, 11 ships and 3 irou-clads, passed Fort Morgan this morning. The Tecumseh monitor was sunk by Fort Morgan. The Tennessee surrendered after a desperate engagement with IKS enemy’s fleet. Admiral Buchanan lost r. leg and is a pris* . oner. The Selma was captured. The Gaines was beached near the hospital Tire Morgan is safe and will try to run up tonight. Tho enemy’s fleet has approached the ci'y. A monitor has been engaging Fort Powell all day. (Signed) D. 11. Mauiiy, Maj. Gen, FROM MOBILE. On Friday night, Lt. Col. Williams com manding Fort Powell, evacuated and blew up the fort. 'lire people of Mobile arc all ready for the fray. Great confidence prevails. Tho people are 'satisfied with the conduct of officers Buch - anan, Murphy and Bennett, of the Navy. We are painfully humiliated to announce the shameful surrender of Fort Gaines r.f half past nine o’clock, August 7, by Col. Charles Anderson of the 21st. Alabama. Tlria powerful work was provisioned for six months, and had a garrison of six hundred men. He communicated with tho enemy’s fleet by flag of truce without the sanction of Gen. Page. Gen. Pago inquired by signal what his pur pose was, but received no answer. Attention was attracted by signal guns.— Gen. Page repeatedly telegraphed, “ Hold on to you! Fort.” Tho same night Usn. Page visited Fort Gaines and found Anderson on board the Yan kee fleet, arranging terms of capitulation, 110 left peremptory ciders for Anderson on liis re turn not to surrender, arid relieving him of his command. Although Fort Morgan tignallcd Angus 8, no answer was returned except hoisting the Yankee flag on tho ramparts. Anderson’s conduct is officially pronounce nexplicabie and shameful. YANKEE ACCOUNT OFTHE NAVAL FIGHT AT MOBILE. New Orleans papers of the 9lh’have been received. They say the Tecumseh was struck by a tor pedo opposite Fort Morgan, went down and ali en board perished, including the Captain, ex cept nine persons. After passing the fort, the Tennessee came up through the wooden vessels of the fleet de livering broadsides and lookhig for the Hart ford, tire flag ship of Farragut. The Manongabcla fired and ;wn and struck the Tennessee amidships. The Tennessee and Hartford then got side In side, the former pouring broadsides into the Hartford’s port holes, causing, as the True Delta say;;, a fearful Ices of life on the latter. The L&ckawan-i and others came up and fought untiil the Tennessee surrendered. The papers report that Admire l Buchanan’s leg will be saved. lie told tlit-iu he would have been willing to die . two minutes after wards, if he could have sunk the Hartford. Gen.

H is a lesson which should bo carefully noted. There is hardly a regular battalion iu th ? while of the enormous hosts which are contending wuh such unparalleled ferocity and resolution. The veimans who are occasionally spoken cf cannot by possibility be soldiers of more than taree years’ standing. Our own volunteers hi > older troops than those under Grant or Lee. Ihe whole of the dreadful fighting has been none by volunteers, aud volunteers without us much training as our own riflemen. Yet tlier 3 raw companies, without professional spirit or regimental traditions, with captains snatched from the counter or the store, and with Gener als who were attorneys a few months ago, ai o fighting with as much obstinacy and heroism as Napoleon s Old Guard of Germany’s biaves t warriors. There may be little science in tha business, but of all that makes soldiers them is as much as iu any war of which we read. COMMERCIAL. Ai-utiaxA mahki.ih. Weekly Meport Aug. 15, P.
