Tho question, thorefore, 1s, how doce ths of Cougross actusliy stend in relation to this ¥ The act of Congress of Jan 20, 1813, enacted ‘that no pereoo un ter the age of twonty-one years should De enlisted without the consent in writlag of his parent, ian or master, Tue act of December 10, 1814, au- ing recruiting officers to enlist pereos between the ages of cighteon nad Ofty, deciared that tt snouid be abso- Jute and binaing upon all persons under the age of twen- Ay-one years, a wel! as nyo persous of full age, and so much of the act of 1313 as required the consent of tho pa- Tent, guardian, or master, was repeaiot. If there ware no further iegislation by Congress oa this subject, tha ea ‘Metment of s minor avove ths age of 18 wourl be vaild. Bat tho act of Septembur 25, 1550, makes it the “ duty” of the Secretary of War to order the discharge of any eo! of the army of the Ucicod Stites who, at the ums of enlist nent, was aoder (ho of 21 years, upon evi dence being produced that the eniwtment was without the consent of hw parent or guardian =e not tais virtwally & restoration of the law a it siood uncer the act of 1813? Does this Congress by this injunction declare that uo one wan be eulisted, or retained in the army, if, at tho time of bin ealistment, be “was under the age of 2 years, or does it merely give authority to the Secro ‘of War to order the qiacharge without giviog any to the recrait to bs discharged? Ti the resrat hag Deen enlisted at au ago not sapciioned by Congress, there oan be Little dou'e that be can be discharged by State av therity. The detention would im that case be illegal, aad A i i FE ‘whatever may be the cause of an tllora! cetention, the Courts of the Stats are not oaly capan'e, but are compelled, to afford relief. This, however, was Coutrasictad by Cait Kent, in the matier of Ferguson (9) R 238). He tained that an abuse of the authority of the Uuited States was an offencs against the Vaited States, ant exclu- ry cognizable in their courts, and that whea the State have pot jurisdiction over the whole subject matter of the imprisonment, and when the Federal courts have ifisdiction, by indictment, aa well as by habeas cor- 4 appeared to be a manifest want ofjarisdé ction in case. All the other Judges, however, although con- eurring with bim in the propriety of refasing the applica. for the writ of Labeas corpus, reserved tasm-elves as to Phe question of jurisdiction."

Tam far from saying that Venezuols is tranquil, but it is also far from being in the imminent crisis in which it was a mouth ago. We had then an army of Vandals calling at the doors of Valencia, and we had no troops to oppose them. But the impending danger produced a miracle, and the Commander-in-Chief of the government, General Cordero, owing to a delay of eight days on the pert of the enemy, marched against them, and won a very important victory. Soullo, the best friend and compcer of Monagas, retreat- 04, tiger-Ike, fighting and bleeding, tenaciously followed by Baca, whose son was assassinated by Svtillo. Two of the sons of thia ferocious chief have falienin the retreat. Aranguren, another liberal, was met, aad his troops yanquisbed, by Ramos, Aguado, encore avother liberal, Was twire routed in San Sebastian, aad Falcon (people cali bim Donna Juana, say “Mise Naucy,’’) disappeared Aiter the battle of Caracal, or Cople. Thus you sce that moet of tha chiefs of the revolution bave been cefeated everywhere. But we do not perse- cute them after the bettle; and this is our prinotpal fault, unless it is expiawed by tbe fact that both conqueror and copqnered remain go cxhansted after the encounter that tho latter aione is anxwus to move. Our victories, notwithstanding, did not prevent the re- els from attacking the town of Yare, some forty miles distant from our capital. There an old captain of the Colombian army, a nephew of Bolivar, defended himself with 30 men agaiust 250 rebels, until he was relieved by & providentia! succor, like in Lucknow.

An astouncing cisalosure was made’ aroung commercial Circ €8 yestercay morning by the arrest of Mr. %. A. Rosenthal, a merchant who has hitherto stood high in Mercantile honor and surtaived the reputatiou of an ir- reproscheble character. It the aliegationa sworn agains! him be correct, avd there seems to be no doubt as to their truth, be fs one of the boldest na9 most aacceesiul swind- lers that bas ever practiced upow that confitence 80 cus tomary between business mem, and the upholding of which is 60 ahi to the untrammelied facitity of commercial operat Itappeare that Mr. Rosenthal has been doing a very beavy business, speculating in sugars, groceries and liquors, baving bis store on the Iaveo, between Custom hougo and Biouville streets. Probably finding that he ‘was losing money, aud would be compelied soon to sus. pend, he determined to play a bsid game and secare a large amount of money by @ wholesale abuse of the credit ho poseersed. For this purpose be purchased goods wherever be could obtain them in exchange for his notes, which he passed off to the extentof at least forty thousaod. dollars, which are beld oy a large number of brokers aad merchants Among the many whom be swindled are Theo ¥F. Well, for twelve of sugar, worth $1,000; Samvel Ewing, for twenty-nine hogsheads, worth $2,082; James W. Demarest, for cight hogsheads, worth $690: Workom & Moves, for liquors worth $900; Goldsmith & Barnott, for liquors worth over $300; Pinckard, Steele & ©o., J. M. Savage, Jonas Pickles and Mr, Robertson, for groceries, and I. M Fisk, for cottoa seed oit. Baving shipped all of these goods off in diforoat direc. Hone, and realized the cash upon them, Sir. Roseuthal clored up his store last week, and after sending notes to several of bis heavivet creditors, stating that hia life had been threatcned, aud he was obliged to leave New Or. leans, be bad hisheavy black beard sbaved) off, and dressing in ared flannel shirt, cotrouade pants aod a baudanua turban, he took up his residence ou the out- skirts of Gretna, thinking to remain isc. until it waa ‘saf, for him to leave the locality. Unfortunately for him seif he came over to the city op Sunday nignt, about ter o’clock and called upon Mr. Wenck, the lawyer, at that gentleman's residence on Marais street, to ask Some to eal aivice. Some person recogvized him even through bis cisguise, and gent word to the Troms poiica officars, arking to bave him arrested. Oflicer McKay wont w Mr. Wenck 's hous» and took Rosenthal into custody. Yeeterday morning he was brongnt before acting Recorder Benit, when Meters. Weil, E and Damurest made affidavits against him for obtaining money uncer false Pretenses. He was remanded to the Parish prison, but we understand that Col. Field will get out a writ of babeas corpns before one of the district courts this morn- ‘ng, and that Roseothal will very probabiy bo discharged, as bis cresitora having voluntarily taken his notes, they Cannot base @ criminal pi ‘upon the transactions.

The people of the North were desoribod as desutuie of every good quality ; the republicza party asa baud of robbers sod assassins, evemies of religion and traitors ageinet the government Tasy were accuasd of wiaing the invaders of Virginia, of stealing negroes, and systematically stirring up servile insurrection. Their pro. feasions of peace were branded as falsehoods, and their principles were misrepresented aad belied in the most in- decent and iveult ng manner. The repubhcans bore all this'with forbearance, the more romarkakie because they were tho most powerful party ‘on the ficor of the House. But they bore it because the House was yet unorganized, and it was desirsbie that some rule of order should be established before launching ‘upon the stormy ses of debate. New, however, thata ‘has been elected, and tho legislative business ia well under weigh, when gomo of them disposed to reply, to the insults and imputations aimed alike at them- selves and their constiuents, the same chivalric gentlomon Undertake to stop their mouths and lictate what thoy shall be allowed to speak. Mr. Lovejoy’s asaauit the slaveholding barbarism. was veboment and unqualified, but it was strictly parla- mentary. He confined his attack to the institution of Blavery, without arraigning any momber of the House. But the buily does not stand upon parliamentary punc: tito. He must needs knock somebody down; that is bis argument. and Mesers. Pryor, Barksdale (the same who was acelped in the Grow affair) and others of the seme character crowded around him to whip him into silence. Neither Mr. Lovejoy nor his republican associates were to be intimidated; they showed their readiness to defend the freedom of spesch, and the Diueterere, still true to their ingiincis, shrank away. If Mr. Lovejoy had stood alone he would undoubtedly have met with another reception; but, inasmuch as he was well befriended, be was allowed to proceed, Your “ iastinot fé @ great matter,” as the doughty Sir John used to aay. It was hardly to have been expected that a man whose brother had been mobbed and murdered for believing that siavery ia wrong should speak of that iastitution with avy great deliberavon and forbearance; and it tg probably ‘owing to this fact that Mr. Lovejoy on Taursday spoke in such plain and cutting terms of the evils of the system. ‘He ts reported to have said:—* You murdered my brother, on the banke of the Mississippi, more then twenty yoars ‘go, and | am bere to vindicate his blood and spaak my mind” The history of the crue! murder aliuded to may servo not only to show the assertion t> be true, but also to refresh tac memory of those Southern Congressmen who, not long since, pronounced Mr, Van Wyck to bi Mar and « scounarel, for asserting that negroes are burned in the South. Etjah P Lovejoy, the brother of Owen Lovejoy, was a Bative of Mame, and was graduated at Waterville Uoilege fe 1828. He practiged taw some time in St. Lou's, Mo., ut subsequontly entered tae church, became an agent of the Suncay School Union, and wis finally selected to con- duct a religious journal in St. Louis. [a his editorial ca- | re he maintained the rightof an American citizen to ree discussion; and when a free colored man was burned to death rear St Louis, be rebuked tne savage outrags in such terms as it deeorved. And for this he was driven out of the Stato of Mirsourl. He next estabiishod himself at A'ton, Illinois, and began the pubiication of a called tuo Alton Observer. ta this jouroai he avowed his opposition to the system of elavery, and published u loog exposition of bis views ou the subjec. Being on the border of a slave State, his words raised & storm of popular fury, and three times hia Office wes demolishes and his press destroyed; bat his friends promptly cxme to his assistance, aud replaced the property of which his enemies bad robbed him, in ‘violation of law and justice. The publication of the 0b- server was therefore resumed. 1a Noveruber, 1837, Mr. Lovejoy'a press having been Tocently desiroyed and a new one ordered, a meeting was ca'led ostensibly for the purpose of aliaying excitement, but really to intimidate the bold advocate of free speech. Mr. Lovejoy appeared at this meeting, and in & brilliant apd manly epeech defended the freedom of conscience and the liberty of the . Soon after his press ar rived, and on the 7th of November, 1837, it was lodged tp astone warehouse, where Mr. Lovejoy and some of his friends took sheiter, ready to defend {t againes an ex. og attack The mob aseombied the samo night and red upon the building, but failing to dislodge the ooca- Ee. they attempted to set fire to the warehouse. Mr ejoy went out to prevent them, when he was shot dead, pierced with three buckshot. Mr. Lovejoy left a wife and three childreu. Mrs, Love- Joy stood by him nobly in bis trials, and particularly during & brutal assault upon him previous to the fatal affray at Alton. When Lovejoy’s mother jest the ddwes of his on the exciaimed, “ It is weil. I had rather be ebould fallm martyr to his cause than prove recreant to bis princt 7 If the speech taade in the Bouse then, by tbe surviving brother, was denuncistory and severe, it was not a whit more #0 than the multituce of spsecbs, in which for two moovths at the opening of the session, the North was ns- railed. Compared, indeed, with the foleome diatribes of Keitt, Clay, Ashmore, Pryor. ead their sors, the invective of Lovejoy was moderate.
