that the Confederate o*. ic:: ration is the only

it lives and breathes by too will aad powers
of the Constitution atone and to preserve tno

In this eoutory it is diatlnguishafi '
Iren tbi militia by express provision in the
Con-'-iiiutioa to raise armies and to callout
the militia, being distinct grants of power.—
The power to raise armies may be illustrated
as to its meaning, and intention, by a brief
glance at the military laws of ©theraalions, to
Dee whether there is such an idea ns ciaasliica
tion, on aceourrt of disease, or physical inabil
ity, recognised by them, or whether any but
abi- bodied men sonstituse the ar ::y.
In Russia, not only arc invalids exempt, but
nvbiliiy clergy, magistrates, students and mer
chants of particular guilds. In Prussia, the
cor--: iplion takes every citizen eapabie to l-.ar
arms, to serve at twenty years old lor thiee years
then two years in the Reserve, after whi.hhe
j--i.. the madwher;in wLich,beremans, subj .-ct
I to caii in time of war, until his thirty-Becond
I yfcae, aud in the second Bau, until
j when be goes into the Laadsturm. In I ranee,
j adl citizens betwesn twenty aud twenty-six, are
1 liable to conscription besides Reserves, and
j vrheu Nspole-m, whose memory stills floats over
| the world like an inspiration was gripplibg
' the military power of the world, he only took
! me able-bodied i .a or aimies from France.
In Belgium, the Burgher Guard, as distin
guished from Troops of the Line, is composod
,>f ablebodied men. In England, conscription
;is unknown. The military power of Austria
" . of a standing army, and army of Ke
-he exemptions ard numerous
.rid no provision maxe for other ih-ai
abltbodied men, 6xccpt as in England—those
vho havo been disabled in active service. In
Turkey, the army is organized on European
principles; there are six orders or divisions,
: einbra-.;i0;4 and divided into Active and Hi
/.--u;i uod Redif or Reserve. The Urban and
ur .ic dre madr up oi musselmen voluu
,like the English Constabulary,
ia - ~ itx.erland there is no standing array,
i hut. every Canton contributes a fixed contin
ual! when called on, the ages between twenty
| four and thirty-four forming the term of ac
: five service, and between thirty-four and forty
i four the reserve In Spain tho army consists
i regulars and reserves. Ia Germany all the
. ;-..ic3 act fedeiatively, and tho contingent of
j men and money each Stats must give in time
! of war is fixed according to population. In
! Osnmark the army is recruited by conscrip
: -ion—i s period of conscription commencing
j ot twenty. Four years in the lino and sou- in
the reserve; alter this they remain in the Fest
! ico.,: n, assimilating the Prussian Landwebr,
! : r.V/i-jt to call up to their forty-fifth year. In
;:• jtn t*: a.my proper is raised by enlist
j m -ut, s-d the reserve by conscriptica. In
.. jrv.-ay, Japan, and the. Netherlands, there
| nro standing armies. IJafe enough has been
! glano-.-u at to illu.-,irate the view we present,
l that the term :my throughout tho woild has
| bu.f one meaning, and,- while men are cTassi
;i.(i as * >a:re, ihcra is no second class from
j physical - - ability ; besides, the army does
not include the reserve forces until they are
I-called oiu. ihe militia in this country occu
| --r-s tb*. plp.ee of the reserves, and is not re
j garded properly “the army.” When we speak
of the army, wo mean the army of fighting
men, or the body of men armed for war. The
term dots not embrace hospital cooks 'or
nurses. It implies able-bodied men, wherever
and whenever used. Even in Siam, where
|t, -ry man is linhie to b 5 called out at tho will
of bis chief, under tho direction of the “sacred
I r.d oflives,” or .“owner of all,’’ “tho most
exalted and infallible lord,” the people have
this protection, that none but “able bodied
men” can be forced into servic.
The power to raise armiei, in our judgment
as granted toy the Confederate Constitution,
, limited in its t.ppiicaticn to the irising rrf
armies, and armies aro madeou; of able bod
ied men—men capable of bearing arms
loir view is strengthened toy the fact i.hat,
under our system of Government, the only
.'■vice tho citizen owes to the-Confederate
Government 'is military service. In military
o'i vi. ; there in opened the ; id to glory—the
private may aspire by noble deeds to wear r.
wreath of stars, his her,'.siu may lift him to
honor and embalm bis name to posterity—and
being capable of these services, his country
may command them; but to assign a man to
mental service, unfit to earn distinction in his
country’ll cause, is to robe him in a .soldier’s
garb awl rob him cf a soldier’s glory. Wo
i ll' '.-to and recogui:«,.tho condition
oi ml.- eourliy. We know, with Mignet, that
■'too true author of a war is not he who de
cli.iv. 1 1, but ho who renders it necessary.’’
iS. xi’ov/ tha struggles of our Gcvcrmmmt, in
•lefondiiig iib-rty and free Government, what
it has had to meet. But we feel sensibly the
eurc.it way to tho end is to walk by tho light
oi tho Constitution, the public spirit upon
which ail power is founded, may be led to en
thu.-.brain and warmed with patriotism by a
just regard for the laws of tho land,
Uao ol' the indispensable qualities of a
Government, says Mr. Thiers, in his History
of the Revolution, ”is to have that good
reputation which defends it from injustice;”
losing this, “there remains no longer the
faculty of governing.” In the history cf
Napoleon, wo may read lcsrona of tae r.dtessi
ty oi adhering to the law rather than to power
*n all h:s acts ” he gave the civil order
pre-eminence over tiic military ovderes
Louis Napoleon ] A General had no power
rest an obscure criminal. Thibaudteau, vol.
P. 170. -In IS:)#, the Duke de Abtantes
tiieu Governor of Paris, was accused of viola
ing the Game Law. Ha set at ilenanse the
authority of courts. Ho was obliged to settle
the matter to avoid an execution. Thibau
deau, vol. 5. p. 218. After tha birth of
young Napoleon, the Emperor eontempiated
erecting r. superb palace, to be ealled the K ing
of Rome’s Palace. Upon tiro sits selected
stood a poor cooper’s hut. Napoleon offered
forty lime tuts value But the owner, spfiCii.'atlng
so the necessity, rose higher. Tho noble
imperor, in this, as in all other acts of greut
nefis, surpassing the world, abandoned the
design, a .id let the cooper’s hut, in his out!
immortal language, remain as a monument
of his res eet tor the law.
.With too view we entertain of the necessity ,
cf i .voi-rg down and discarding “war mens- j
i tiros and “warpoliey,” when inconsistent with *

Charges were made against the Rev. M. F.

treatment to a negro boy. The case was in
vestigated, and the following preamble and
resolutions were adopted:
Whereas, the charge against Rev. M. Mals
by, of Assault and battery, is admitted by him
as- a Del, while at the same time he accnowl
edgss that ha did wrong, and expresses the
deepest pentienco lor the aet; and whereas,,
the Conference bclipve liira to have al’o-wiy
sufiered greatiy for the hasty act—therefore,
Resol rod, That the charge be dismissed by a
ropvimand from the for tha exhibition
of hasty and ungovernable temper.
The second charge waa not sustained—the.
evidence proving that it was an act of self de
fence.
He way. accordingly reprimanded by tho
Bishop aud his character was pas<<€d.

The Cook Committee of the Georgia Annual
Conference submit the following as their an
nual report.
The business of the Depository has been suc
cessfully conducted during the past year. The
. report of the agent, Rev J W Burke, for the
year ending October 1, 1864, shows that the
sails of the year amount to $212,320,29, "on
which a net profit of 840,4-70,23, has been re
alized, making the net capita! of the Deposito
ry at that date $97,614,8 J.
When we retrospect tho past end recall to
5 mind tha insignificant amount of capital, with
which the depository was launched into be
ing, and the manifold difficulties which have
been encountered in its management during
the last four years, we cannot but pay a fit
tribute to tho persevering industry, the untir
ing energy and financial Skill of the agent,
which, under tho blessing of God, have raised
it from a small and humble beginning to the
present commanding position, and established
it upon a Jinn and we trust an enduring basis.
The'committee recommend tho adoption of
the fy I lowing resolutions :
Resolved, That the presiding Bishop be re
quested to re-appoint Rev J W Burke as agent
tor the ensuing year.
Resolved, That the agent is hereby instruct
ed to pay to Rev E II Myers, editor of the
Southern Christian Advocate, the sum of five
thousand dollars ia Oonf derate States inter
est bearing Treasury notes for the purpose
ot assisting that paper.
A preamble ami resolutions were adopted
on the subject cf marriage among negroes,
and requesting that the Legislature be memo
rialized ia regard to the bettor securing tho,
matrimonial relations of slavis.

FORKS ,IN ITEMS,
Michelet has just published anew book in
France called “The Bible of Humanity.”
It is stated thift Pope Pius IX intends to
make a cardinal of Archbishop McCloskey, on
the ground that as there are more American
than English Roman Catholics, their clergy are
entitled to that distinction.
The spread of the biblo, in|Russia, is one of
the most gratifying modern facts, in connec
tion with the Greek Church. The present Czar,
Alexander, shortly alter Ills accession to the
throne, ordered a revised translation of the
bibie, in the vernacular, to be made, under the
direction of the holy synod, tor distribution
throughout his empire. A really nice copy of
the new testament can now be bought for
twelve cents. The bibie is now bought, in
large quantities, by the Russian serfs.
Disturbances are repotted in Albania,
Turkey. .Six hundred Albanians took up arms
and massacred numerous Turkish officials.
The Turkish troops were proceeding to the
scene of insurrection. It was feared the move
ment would extend.
Tite British Emancipation Society had pre
• stented a congratulatory address to Mr. Adams,
the American miniate;', on Mr. Lincoln’s re
election.

can Empire.
The breach between tlio Papal Government
and the Prussian Minister at Rome is \v ideli
ft ia rumored that an asylum for decayed
literary men is about to be founded near Paris

| Martial law has been proclaimed in eighteen

j ders to fire upon all assemblages which sum- i
I atoned to disperse, fail to give an instaut

; The excavations of Pompeii have just led to
| the discovery of a temple of Juno, on the
! flags of which were scattered about more than
j two hundred skeletons of women and children,
| who, during the eruption of Vesuvious, hasten
ed to the temple to implore the protection of
the goddess.
Accounts from Mecklenburg, Germany, state
- - hat an cmigtalien er. or-.?: is going on from

ers are looking forward with dismay to the
moment when they will have no hands to
cultivate their estates.
The substitution of iron for wood in the
construction of ships is going forward with
such rapid strides in tho United Kingdom., that
in seme of theoid ship-yards a timber ship is
ccar cly ever seen. It is a fact worthy of ob
.-;ervation that on-the Civde only two wooden
ships have been buiit-w.thin the past year,
out ot an aggredate of 319 vessels launched
there, or still in process of construction.
A Paris correspondent of the London

The Departures from Ireland Continue with
out diminution. One of the latest Cork pa

no effect in deterring intended emigrants
from the trail? Atian’so passage. On tht* con-,
trary, there is a steady increase in the number
of persons leaving Cork for the United States,
and the country people now say that the com
ing spring will, in all qrobabiiity, witness a
rush even greater than anything yet seem.
