SI. Tn. toe Supreme Court to-dav Hon. James Hushes, on the part or the United States, moved lo dismiss Mwiv.rrVtp rni for want Muris'l icHou. It will be recollected that tbe court has set npart the flrsr -Monday in Afarch'nPXt to Jicar the argument as to why the-ease was advanced on the docket.

Bwrbes said the pe tition of McCardle, appealing lroai the ae-nic? nfihunnnrt. is fonnded od the assump tion thrt the reconstruction laws are uncon stitutional. tnnrAo wncbflld under these several acts. The petition asserts that he ie not charged with nnv inilitnrv offense, but when lie comes to explain the occasions tor his arrest, say.s lie wuu oppuaiu iuuouu tion actsoi' Coneress. Hughes then quoted nrififn whifb thft netitioner-had published in bis paper, the Vicksburg showing violence of language the military au thorities and strong conuemnauou in uw i-cojstruction acts.

The whole tenor and tone of the recon struction act of Mareb, 1S67, contains -no pavino- clause, and givesno jurisdiction to any tpTTniti-d Stutes to interfere with tbe habeas corpus. The act rather tscludes the idea that it was to be a football between courts of the United Slates imd the military power of the United States, between circuit i-nnrtH and Maior Generals, and between nnnirw-is tinI hft Snnrcme Conrt. The military power of the Government, the war-making power, is reserved to' Congress alone by the Constitution. Having wairedla war for four years, and the Supreme Court having recognized it as a solemn war, the United Sttites, as here represented. 5ay that tlie nation in nncstion does not recognize the right of the judiciary to interfere with the political power new exercised in the late seceded States; does not.

recognize it as having power to interfere in interval Irom the close ot the war until now, when the work ol reconstrnctiou is progress, Mr. Hughes, in support of bi3 argument, referred the Court to various legal authori ties. Hon. Jeremiah S. Black expressed his sur-nri that a motionhad been made to dis miss this case, as the Court bad already, set a time to hear argument on the subject.

On former occasion counsel for tbe United States were opposed to considering the case at nil, but now they go off halt cocked. Tbe editorial articles which had been read wfire caleulated to make the Iriends of Gen. ffd feel indio-nant. bat bis private opinion was that the epithets against that officer were not deserved. If it be true, as asserted by the olher side, that neither mis court or me Circuit Court of Mississippi has any juris diction over this suDject, men cue American people ore in the precise condition the French people were uuimg iin: uiuunnuj, ucu any man coma no put in pnnuu mm thni-fi nniil he died or was iorcotten.

Mr. Black said the very law from which Mr. Hngbes had quoted, expressly says that the several courts of the United States and rhRiiida-es ofthese courts shall have determine exactly such cases as this one, and iurtber authorizes tnem 10 issue wnu ui hiibeas corpus within their respective in cuBefc. ot persons wuo suau compiaiu ui ok-inc detained or held in prison contrary to the Constitution ana laws 01 tu uniiau biuu-s. Where there 13 no exception, a laiio within the ceneral rule.

The Dublishinsrof editorial articles was not a military offense, and could not be marie by simply so n. as uju cu; uujuuiujjlcu in a Circuit Court, it should be 6ettUdin the Supreme Court. Where doubts exist about tbe meaning of a law, it is the universal practice to give tbem to the complainant lor his benefit, in order that the mischief might repaired as iar aspossiuie. Jimgc conclusion, condemned the Jaw, which he declared struckdown ten independent states. The court here adjourned.

Tbe argnment will be resumed next Friday by Senator Trumbull for the military authorities and by Judge Sharkey ior petitioner.

The houe of refuse at fssay, France, has just tost its oldest and most interet-imr inmates. 11ns is a woman uamed Virg'mia Uhesqnires, who was just 300 years old at the time of her Her history is particularly distinguished by the following romaaiic incident: During one of the cam-rjaisns under the first empire, the colonel ot the Twenty-seventh was mortally wounded, and the regiment nearly cot off. When t1 colonel lell," the men, burning to revenue his death, with redoubled fnry, and made their way through the enemy's ranks, in-8 dieting heavy loss. But as he foe fell back and the regiment was congratulating itself on its honorable safety, a little serceant, with an air-intensely alert and wide awake, stepped forward aud exclaimed, "We are not through yer, my boys; we must bring back the body of our Colonel." Two men volunteered to accompany the sergeant, hnt tbey were shot down on the route, and the little hero arrived atone beside the dead body of bis chiel. He tried to lift it on las shoulders, but his force was not equal to his spirit Two English officers rode up on horseback, and one flred at the sergeant.

In return he shot dead the other, whose gun was yet loaded, and with his bayonet dismounted the first, succeeded in raising- the body ot the Colonel to the horse, and rode off with him in triumph. By one of the mitacles that -are the inle in couuection with such romantic stories, the colonel was not dead, hut, when brought into camp, ws revived by the care lavished upon him. It was then discovered that the boy who had saved his life was himself wounded in the breast. He obstinately resisted the surgeons who wished to attend to the wound, but was ultimately compelled to submit to authority, and the discovery was then made that the heroic little sergeant was a -woman'. -This was Virginia Cheaquires, who hadalien her brother's place at thecoo-scription.

She was honorahly discharged from the service and lived to be 100 years old, I yesterday. And after au animated discussion it was agreed to 104 yeas, 43 uays. 1IUUUL CU tiling YUlC Ull iwuiutn; election case, the House fOKIEGI. Atlantic Cable Telegrams. European Obtrusion in South America.

The opening of that gentleman's remarks was startling. He said he saw in this srmnieniental bill the overthrow of remibll- can government in ten of the Southern and many other alarming tnings, out he reminded. him very, much 'of the fiish member, Sir Rnvle Roche, who said in -Parliament: "Mr. Speaker, T-smell aTat I see hini float ing in the air; but 1 shall nipliiminthe bud. rT.ivrto-hter.l There was abbttt as much need, for serious alarm in the sentences of the Senator, but the people were quite competent to place the proper estimate upon the.

language he.made use of. After' alluding to.lMr. T)oolittIe's change of course in politics, he asked "Where; was his colleague's commission for standing here in the Senate as the. champion of the Caucasian-race? He denies disloyalty of the white race in the and says they were dragooned into the rebellion by the radical majority, and the Caucasian white were overcome bv their leaders, Then he turns round and accuses the black men of being rebels. He recounts the losses and suffering ot the whites; and then quotes example in the case of tbe Roman province of Latinum, which buL was treated by tne emperor uzmuius wmi mao-nanimitv after beine conquered, and its people were not compelled to submit 10 the control 01 ineir mu-vcs.

xic now uuuwuu-ed tbat no-: Emperoj ot Rome treatd rebels with as much kindness and mag. natiimity as the United States liOveroraeiit treated the Southern traitors. But it was said the Republican party wanted to strengthen themselves by enfranchising the blacks and disiaHchising the whites; yet it was tried to prevent that party from asking these white rebels to come into the organiza tion. The Democrats had nothing to offer them, for they were poorer than the rebels themselves. rJut no such mfltive impelled the Republican the supremacy of the (jovernmcut and laws of the United States was the paramount consideration.

In selecting loyal DiaCKB upon wuoui iu cuuier nui ui Mil-Trace, we came to the conclusion that the black men should have a voice, a' place in the local' government of the Sonth, and we are determined in the interests of, the very inteerritv of the republic, thatEiich a consum mation shall be effected.

Mr. Howe, in conclusion, said all on the other side of the chamber had closed their lun-finwiicR.

with terrible threats and nronhe- cies of disaster to the Republican parLy in the coming autumn, ne aia not iear tnemt Dut. were it so, the contest suonia not then be ended. He said no man could consistently rn in his closet and prav to his Creator for other objects in this struggle than those for which the republican wid vote, and closed by eulogizing its euorts nitiiccto, charging "the Democratic party with the en ure responsioiuiv ior tne war, ana nreaicuno the success and triumph and vindication of the Congressional poucy.

LBpecialUorrespoudeuceol the Louisville Courier. New YoBKj Jan29, 18tiSi L1UEL.SUIT. Mr. Theophilns Callleot want's flftylhon- sand dollars from Henry 'J; Raymond for dam-' age to his character. The alleged libeLwas contained in an artiele in the Times abdrit three months ago, -when then a reve nue collector in Brooklyn; 'wa? brought hp with a sharp turn by the men in Washington, for collusion the whisky swindlers.

The charge in the.Times was ap one simply that Callicpt sold himself to the Re publicans some years ago, for twelve hundred dollars. He was elected to the Legislature asaDemocrat; 'but he-got there he suddenly changed- sidesi and bis detection mrew tne organizauon ui tuu nouse into Ihc hands' bf.the Republicans. The "story is quite old. and the charge was made a hun dred times papers Deiore nay-mond Dubiished Mt but. Callicot never thought of holding any one accountable for it until it appeared in the imes.

Thcophilus citnarucuianv sore about that time, on ac count of his little difficulty with the revenue authorities, aud it eailed him to see one of 1 the men ne uaa soia out turning upon mm wneu ne was, in irouoic. me irouoic tea to his removal trom ihc office of col-, lector, though all tbe Republican big! guus in Brooklyn interested them selves to have mm retained, and as soon as he cot official responsibility off his hands he commenced the suit; Raymond. The case was briefly areucd in tue oupreme uourt (Brooiuyuj on aionaay, but no decision was rendered. Callicnt's counsel made the point that a man's patriotism was something that" should be held acred. Quite true.

But suppose a man has uo patriotism -or if he thinks he has, what consiitutes patriotism? Is it patriotism to become a Republican "candidate for Speaker alter beimr elected as a Democrat by Demo- crats.r as 11 patriotism oc au-ngur wuu the whisky swindlers when one holds the office oi levcnue collector? it patriotism to make all one can out of the Government. and rank A 1 among Mr. Btccber's aint Oi course I don't know, and, like RoscDartlc in "David Copperfleld," I merely ask for information. CONSTERNATION ITf THE LOTAE. LEAGUE.

Miles O'Reilly. has thrown a horrible b'ouib shell right into the parlor of the loyal league, and the "narrow-minded blockheads' are dancing abont in a frisrbtlul way on account of it. The last number of the Citizen (Miles'- paper) had a double-leaded leader raking Grant lor his treachery, and calling upon the people to stand by Tlien the Tribune came down suarpiy on jvtius lor going oacK on firant and sonndhnr the tocsin of alarm, and Miles next astonished" the Tribune and everybody else by blurting out, in his humorons way, the fact that the, article was written in the Loyal League cluh-bonie, and sent to him from that sanctuary of nueb richt-. eons. Quite naturally this disclosure produced great commotion in Union Sonar and the members of the elub are feartnlly anxious to know who among them has turned traitor nnd trained his guns upon Grant.

Miles won't givy tnem the least einer to the culprit, so their chance ol finding him out is very sum. The miseniei oi it is that an thes aristocratic follows in Union Square ate eon sidered big Indians iu the Radical camp, an is so mortnying to una one oi tnem (ana a smart one, too, lor the article -in the Citizen was a rousing ene) trying to smasu tue urani. machine and -rally-1 the neor.lc to Johnson's' standard. If they ever light upon him, he won't get off so easy as Greeley did, for tbe wrath of -the Leaeuers "Is, lull? aud nothing short of the immolation of the traitor will appease iL WIIO WKOTE "THE t'LAUNTKG-I-IK! In the same letter (the disclosure is mado in a letter to the Tribune) Miles says several funny- things, about "rhe-riaunting Li that, was published several years ago iu the Tribune, and the authorship of which has been distinctly disclaimed by the editor. Horace savs it was written by a rammany In dian, aud Miles says he has beeu looking for that lndiau.

ever since. Miies, my uoy, are you sure you men to get on ine rigin ran? I have bsard some men about, town say they could, put their fingers on' that Indian without troiner ten block's from the Vitisssn office. To be sure, they may be mistaken, or it may be one- of their jokes, but really, Allies, they say you know much about ''The Flaunting Li any man in New York. What wits' the use of your smelling' around the Evening Post, it you knew the Indian was not there? Come: now. Miies.

uouor Drifrni, urn you wruc 'The Flaunting Lie" yourself, om ita slander to say you -did? it was lively, put. not uaii so eood as the general run of your muse-in and your friends would like a flat contradic tion ol the storv that "'ibon-art tbe man. Speak ont, Miles, ma boucJial, and clear your conscience. II yon did not write the poem, and I hardly think yon did, it will do you good to get rm ot tne Miispicion tnat some oi these joKers nave oeen iastenmg on you AMONG THE NEWSPAPERS. The World and Tribune have dropped thei ouarrel about circulation, each iourual main taioing to the last that it was going ahead fastest, and satisfying the public that there washubing on some side, unc thing, how ever, is certain: the Tribune, vast as its cir culation is, is the least profitable large daily in New York.

Its expenses are enormous. and the" dividends to stockholders are barely as much as the capital would bring in any ordinary Investment, Three-fourths of writers now employed ou it are new hands iu the Tribune office, but ils political tone is so uniform that outsiders would never suspce" the changes behind the. enrtain In 'tact, rotation seems to have become the rule on the daihr press. The Herald has sev eral new editorial writers, but as each gets his cue trom headquarters, and must follow it to the letter, the readers ol lhe paper don't know bnt. the articles tbey smile at are written by the same pens mat nmused tuem twenty years ago.

The Herald tall' has been cou siderablv ndneed, and is worked mdeli harder than it used to be. The cnculation of the paper is crrtamly uot so large as it was a year ago, and the ground it loses if gained by the World, which is, unquestionably, the ablest Democratic paper ever published tu New Jork, and wmcu nas upon it. Biai someot the most polished and effective wri ters in the country. The strong and rapid growth of the World is a good political sign. indicating an awakening bt the people to the importance ot reading and supporting able Democratic papers.

The circulation ul the Times is said to have fallen oh since Rav mood took to denouncing the new sional iufamica, bnt I would not vouch; lo the statement, for most oi the renders of the Times are solid men who never fly off at a tangent. Dana has got the Sun fairly started on its new course, and has certainly improved it as a newspaper. It is now one of the neaust and freshest papers in New iorK, and i am miormeo it nas aireaoy com menced to eat into the circulation of the other Republican dailies. The little Star, started bv the Snn men. is going ahead quite rapidly, and seems to have become a fixture in the newspaper nem, ruongu is oniy iure old.

THE EVENING PAPERS. We have twelve dailies printed in English and about half a dozen in other tougues; Of thft lormer. six are afternoon naners lb Commercial (Thnrlow Weed); Post (Wm. Brvant): Express (James and Erasttir Brooks); Mail (Sweeper); Telegram (James, Gordon Bennett, and News (Ben. Wood).

Only the three first can be c.illed political, papers. Both the. Commercial and the Post represent the Conservative Repuh licah wins, and 1 think they damage the Re pnblican party. The Express is well-known everywhere as one ot the stanciiest demo cratic papers in tlie country, and is by tar the liveliest ot rue tnrce. us managing editor, A.

K. McMillan, is one of the most exDerienoed lonrnaliers in New i ork. and a strong and ready, writer. The Express and Post are the only evening papers that are worth much property, the others barely paying their way, and one at least, (the Tele-ram) lurdly doing that. Thurlow Wed has inlnseda jgood dcal of life into the Com mercial, but it is said ne means to retire irom it nitfr thft Presidential election, and rest his aeud; bones on his fortune of $3,000,000 made principally by lobbying, i ue six even inz papers combined probably have enlatiou eqn.il to that of I lit.

Times, and World. THE WEEKLY PAPERS. With the exception or the Ledger, Weekly, finndav Merciirr and Harper's Weeklr. the weekly papers are not making fmncb money these times. The its own, bnt its expenses are very high" (Til-ton gets 57,000 a year for editing it), and swallow nearly all the profits.

The Round Table pays, and no more. The same may be said ofa dozen respectable, hut not particularly enterprising weeklies, half literary and half political, which are rarely seen outside ot New York, except as exchanges. Three out and out Democratic weeklies, the Day Book, the Metropolitan Record and the, Freeman's Journal, are gaining in the Sonth and West. The whole number ot weekly pspers published in New York-exclusive of lhe "little poeket-haiidkerehiet eTiop.tR issued bv tbe societies is probably not less than fifty, and the greater part" of their support, except me -uus, eumes irom oihercitiesaad the country. About tenure prosperous enough to Fell for a high figure, il they were in the market, and some ol the others would uot be considered very cheap as a gift.

The past year has been hard on most of them, but they straggle on in hope of soon leaching better times. BLACK CROOK JOPRSAIJSM. It is not creditable to the press to follow the stage, especially when the stage is on the downward track. Black Crookism is the most popular feature ot stage entertinmeuls at the present time, and it is rapidly spreading in journalism. 1 have no mind to gratify prurient tastes by describing the striking features of the sensational papers which have sprung into existence since Rlaefc Crookism became popular, but tliat they are a disgiace io journalism and a glaring social evil must be plain to every eje that sees them.

They flaunt their disgusting pictures in tbe lace ot men and women, hovs and girls, the coarse and the refined alike, ou every news stall in New York; and it a lady goes into a stationery1 store np town or down town, ten to one her eves will fall first on one of ihese abominable sheets, with its grossly indecent illustrations I attractively displayed, it is no use to inveigh asainBt these loul blotches; on literature, for people will buy tu no what is said, and until their publication is interdicted by I law '(a forlorn hope) it- is, probable that they will -continue to be printed in New York and circulated all 'over the country.
