He has been indicted for simple treason; and even this indictment has not been obtained at the instance of the Govern ment.

Of course, thi s pardoning power was never designed to be used for such a purpose, but only to operate in ex ceptional case's, where the regular course of justice would be inei pedient. i ' The termination of a rebellion is ja case calling for a wholesale elevation from the ordinary methods of crim fcialprbceelurt. Congress, therefore, took care to re lieve the President from any delicacy or eloiibt about trespassing on their prerogative ot repealmg laws, by expiressly jiuthori?ixng him to pardon by proclamation, vx advance lofjany trial, and to any extent he might think expedient Soon after the close of the war, Pre sieleiutJ.oHXSc x exercised this powejr by publishing an ajmniesty whidh included the rank and file of the rebel armies, 'anil the great body of the inhabitants of the Southern Stales, but reserving for separate and I subseqteDt consideration certain enumerated clas$esr consisting of officers of? rank and men of wealth.: Thefce he has since been pardoning, at inter vals iou their bwn application: but it seems to us that the time has. jome when he ought to exempt himself fi on thje trouble and annoyance of such applications by aj nejiy riinniestiv, including everybody .except the very iifw inaiTLUiuiis wno are to De triea ior treason. W ie. cannot kloubt that the President intends, and the eouiUty exports, that all, or nearly all, of the excepted ciivsse s win sooner or l-ater be pardoned, ii ths is to ue i mi:u rtsuii, iiie sooner it is consummatc-ci tno better. The persons yet unpardoned are the men of wealthy the-mjen of enterprise, the men whose capital aaiu Uusmss papiicity are needed to relieve toe South fiojii Hh in duf trial stagnation, anx renew its- prosperity. Woyf can thega men mt their property to profitable usea if thf y kjnow not whether it is; their own ?

How cr.n ihey Dorrpw money when tie security they would (ai.ejf lsjsuujccwo tno same iianinty.f. xne great want pf the South, for the revival of itsl prosperity, is the introduction of Northern or European capital. pHt sud ventures will not be made without security, and the Imefci v.hojshonld liaturiilly give it cannot hypothe cate thir projperty for the paymenVof loans so long as thcv irirp uupiudoned. The cases j are all so' nearly ajikeJ the crime is so precisely the same, not diSerincr ni all in nattnfe and but little in degree, that there is no gpot reason AThy every case should U"ee;eive a sepAiate exanmnauon at the hands of the President. A new amnipsty proclamation for the immediate relief of all classes, jSs one of the fittest things tho President could eieciutel ' j . -? 1 j Another reason for getting this whole business of pardion$-,olEhis hands is, that it renders the President obnoxidup, to damaging charges by his "malignant and unscrupulous! enemies. The fct that there is a great body of wealthy men who could s. afford to paxy hand somely lor parttons, exjwses him to :the suspicions ot the captious. A situation whicha. comipt man would covet and povfld easily turn to great 1 profit, is one in wluch an hoiiost man should not wish to be placed ; and yet; in thp present cas-e, it is one which it requires mor courage! to abandon than to. hold.

Austria, in 1816, put to death thirteen of the Hungarian leaders betrayed into her hands by the miscreant Georgery; but she tried them by drum-head court-martial directly after their surreneler, and had them all hangetl and buried within forty eight hours.

M. to night and four A. 31. tomorrow, divested of nil theoretical hvDotheses. if looked at in its true light, it will be seen that the occurrence this year is not one that should excite our cu riosity alone.' It has a very serious import; one, in fact which should be regarded by aU. men now living, and who have been merciful lv spare'd from eudden deaths and calamities that lead to a bad end, as a neaveniy aeimo- nition that this old world of ours has grown its full growth, and must like all things hu man have an ending, xiiat tno meteoric shower, so called, is the simple result of a certain given course of the earth through a certain planetary region, there can be no doubt, but one must loolc beyond tno simpie abstract conclusions of tsavant to find not solely the origin but the absolutely certain consequences that are shortly to follow this great event of the hour. I need not go to the Bible to show vou how the many prophecies concerning the end of the world prove that the "clashing of spheres" is not far distant, but I will call your attention to one prophecy that is to be heeded. In the year 8G7 a great Roman zavant named Lauticus, in the most minute manner, described, in a treatise called "De Mundi Collapsu" the various meteoric displays that were to lake place in' years fu-fn-o f-v 4l,nf tiin ' TYr pfirh rlisnliw descri- bUi V M.A. V-4A VAii V V A AAAX- ' I " bed he gave a c&lculateii date, and up to the year 1833 tho prophecies of Lauticus have all come to pass. The last display -that was. to be had, according to him, was in a year during which groat wars would have been, waged over almost th& entire, face of the earth; arid when one great empire would rise in its might anel swallow up. many surround ing nations; when from one end of the globe men could converse of the disaster that befell them to those who dwelt in the other. Can that great empire not bo Prussia, and tho means of distant intelligence the cable? At that time, says the writer, there will be great commotions in the heavens, "for that will be 1,000 years from the present perioel, when men who scorn to believe will be made to suffer for unbelief in heavenly admonition? The j commotions may last for several tlays, not ex ceeding five unseen by mental eyes, anel then ' all will be chaos." I neeel not say more, sir. "Who knows that you or I, or any- man living may not be involved inthe general crash at j tho enel of the "several days-, not exceeding live?" If all Lauticus' prophecies have been fulfilleel, what hinelers the last one to be eqvallv as well fnlllileel? We may not pray that Heaven may avert a fixed event, but we may suppliate for mercy, and be ready- for the dread hour when it conicth. . i I Pirv. J. H.
