For the Press. “The Constitution as it its and the Union as it was.” "Who rely upon the phantasy, that only an un warranted, illegal, and fanatical bulletin of emanci pation of the negroes can save the Uuion."—[Argu*. We have shown that only last year, the Ar gus as a representative of the concessionists or compromisers, was opposed to the Consti tution as it is; and in favor of a dissolution of the Union, unless the constitution could lto al tered in such a manner as to spread slavery by the infamous Crittenden compromise. We have also shown that although the constitu tion has not been altered, it is not possible to restore “the Union as it was.” In this I am hap py to find myself confirmed by so intelligent a man as Hon. T. M. Hayes. He says: “The legitimate purpose of this war cannot be to re store the Uuion as it was, for this is simply im possible.” There Is a large body of men in this coun try, calling on the President to proclaim the emancipation of all the slaves of rebels, who shall come within our lines for protection in accordance witli the confiscation act. Promi nent among them is Horace Greely. There is another large body of men calling on the President, to proclaim the emancipa tion of all the slaves in the Union, or at least, of all in the rebellious States as a war measure; as the readiest, if not the only mode of putting down the rebellion. To both those classes the Argus and its par ty are hostile. By that paper both are repre sented as fanatical, and their proposed mea sures as illegal, unwarranted, and unconstitu tional. Jefferson Davis, Benjamin, Floyd,Vallandig ham, and Charles A. Wiekiilfe, also profess to regard both of the proposed measures as ille gal, unwarranted, and unconstitutional. But the President does not regard either of them in that light. He says: “If I could save the Union without freeing any slaves, I would do it” Well, he has been trying to do that for eighteen months without success. In spite of all efforts to con duct the war, in such a manner ns to hold all the slaves in bondage, it has not been possible to do it Many slaves have been emancipated, and yet the Union has not been saved. More than a million soldiers for the Union,have been raised; yet the Union has not been saved. Many bat ties have been fought; yet the union has not been saved. Probably 200,000 men have lost their lives, or limbs or health, in this war; yet the Union has not been saved. Again the President says: “If I could save the Union by freeing all the slavcs,I would do it.” Here the President claims the power and the right to emancipate all the slaves in the country, for the sake of saving the Union. But he has not tried this method. The Argus thinks this method would be illegal, unwar ranted and fanatical. But the President thinks it would be entirely constitutional. Yet the Argus professes to be the special friend of the President, and accuses Senator Sumner and the emancipationists, comprising the most of those who voted for Lincoln, with the, crime of treason, and places them in the same com pany with the secessionists! Hon. Thos. M. Hayes also, thinks it would be entirely constitutional. He says: “The purpose of this war is to defend and maintain the supremacy of the Constitution, and the national Union,—if in accomplishing this high object, State lines, institutions, tra ditions, habits, or ideas oppose themselves,they should be swept away like the chaff of a sum mer threshing floor.” If slavery stands in the way of maintaining the supremacy of the Con stitution and the national Union, as we all know it does,it must lie swept away. Mr. Ilayes has no doubt of the power. This war is legal and constitutional on the part of the government. The slaveholders raised a great insurrection or rebellion in the cotton States. By the constitution, Congress was author ized, to “raise and support armies; to pro vide and maintain a navy; to make rules for the government of the land and naval forces; to provide for calling forth the militia to exe cute the laws of the Union, suppress insur rections and repel invasions.” Congress has raised an army aud a navy, and has authorized the President to call forth the militia to suppress the insurrection. By the Constitution the President is made “the Commander-in-chief of the army and navy ol the United States, and of tiie militia of the several States, when called into the actual service of the United States.” Under these provisions of the Constitution, the army, navy, ami militia of the States have been called out, and put in action, to suppress the slaveholders’ reliellion. The Constitution does not in terms declare that the President may use cannon, rifle, guns, swords, pistols, shot, shell, powder, ball, horses, or waggons. It does not in terms say he may take life, lib ertv, or property, without duo process of law; it does not in terms say he may point his can non North, or South; it docs not in terms say he may take the life or liberty of a white man, or of a black man. But by the foregoing provisions of the Con stitution and the laws, the army, navy, and militia are called into actual service, to sup press the insurrection. As the army, navy, and militia, are, by the Constitution and laws, placed under command of the President, to enable him to put the insurrection down, and no spocifle directions are given him how they are to be used, they are to be used in such manner as such bodies have heretofore been used according to the laws of war among civil ized nations. He may arm the men under his command with the best armor he can obtain; he may use all the appliances of warfare of the latest invention; he may point his guns to any point of the compass; he may march the ar my over any part of the American soil, where he judges it necessary. He may go through the territory of Kentucky that has not seced ed, as well as through that of Georgia that has. He may go thro’ Baltimore as well as around, by the way of Annapolis; He may go thro' the farm of a Union man as well as through that of a traitor; he may take life,liberty, and property, without any processor law. That is what he is constantly doing with the army.— He may not hike the life of non-combatants without due process of law’. But he may sus pend the great writ of liberty, called the Ha beas Corpus, and take their liberty, without any process of law. He may take the proper ty of any citizen he judges necessary, the property of Union men, as well as of traitors. The only difference is this—in ca«e of the loy al citizen, the State takes his property, and he, as the representative of the State, under the right of eminent domain. If the proper ty of Union men is taken, they an- entitled to just compensation. But the property of tiait win linty we umru auu couuscilieu, accoruillg 10 the laws of war. The President may fake the liberty of white men or black men. He may seize Union men or traitors. If lie takes the person of a Union man. white or black, from the bands of a trait or, it can only be to liberate him. lie cannot surrender such men to traitors, lie cannot return sueli men to slavery. IJut it he arrests traitors, he may retain them, arraign them for treason, and if they are convicted, he may hang them. If black men or slaves, arc to be regarded as property, tlie President may take them and confiscate them according to the laws of war. It they are taken from a loval citizen, he Is entitled to compensation. If they are taken from a traitor, lie is not entitled. But ir black men are to be regarded as persons they may be taken a- captives of war. Though captives of war may lie returned to the enemy, or ex changed, if they are willing, in no ease should they be forced back into the bands of the ene my without their own consent. There is no more doubt that the President is authorized by the constitution to proclaim the emancipa tion of all the slaves in the country, if he judges that a necessary means to put down the rebellion, than there is that he is the com mander-in-chief. All the men and all the prop erty in the country must be at his disposal for the suppression of this groat rebellion. This great power is entrusted to the President by the constitution, in time of war, for the safety of the slate, subject only to lie re-examined before the Senate on ini|ieacliment for mal-ad ministration in office.

That for Children Cutting Teeth, if troubled w ith Diarrhcea or any irregularities of the bowels, all oth I er remedies are insignificant, as compared with CLEM’S SUMMER CUKE. That for Children troubled with Canker in mouth 1 or stomach, or mothers suffering from nursing sore mouth, a safe and speedy cure is effected by the use ol CLEM’S SUMMER CUKE. That for Coughs, Hoarseness and Bronchial affi’Ct 1 Ions, there is no remedy extant that so universally affords relief as HOWES’ COUGH FILLS. That for a Tightness or Wheezing in the Chest, Fains in the side, or a long staudiug Hack, the best remedy is HOWE’S COUGH FILLS. That as an expectorant and ameliorating agent in cases of Phthisic, Whooping Cough, aud Confirmed Consumption, the public have already rendered their united verdict in favor of HOWES’ COUGH FILLS. CLEM’S SUMMER C URE is a pleasant, agreeable decoction of Roots and Barks, and contains not a particle of Opium or Drug of any sort. It alway# does good, aud never does harm.

Tuesdav Morning, Sept. 'A lWi Slate of Maine. gnocnvi Dkpartwkst. I Augusta, August 2t>, 1802.1 AN adjourned session of the KrirHtivc Council will t»* held at tlie Council Chamber, in Augus ta, on Tuesday the tweuty-third day of September next. Attest, JOSEPH It HAI.L, aug21dtd Secretary of State. The Rebel Invnsion ol the North. On the 12tli of the present month u debate sprung up in the rebel Congress ut Richmond, on the proposed invasion of the North by (he army of the Confederacy. The military com mittee submitted resolutions thanking Gen. Lee for Ilia victory at Manassas, and also ex pressing satisfaction with “the triumphant crossing of the Potouiac by the victorious ar my” of the Confederacy, and stating that the Congress “reposed entire confidence in the distinguished skill of the commanding General, and the valor of the troops, to achieve new triumphs, to relieve oppressed Maryland, and advance its standard into the territory of the enemy.” The debate was opened by Mr. Lyons, of Virginia, who moved to strike out that por tion of the resolution which referred to the advance into the enemy’s country. He ap proved the movement of the unities thus far, and thought a resolution of thanks eminently proper; but if it were passed with the wools proposed to he stricken out, it would he an in vitation from Congress to advance Into the enemy’s country, and that was a responsibility Which, for one, he was not prepared to assume. Mr. Miles, of South Carolina, was in favor of extreme measures, and said Hie whole coun try demanded “the onward movement,” He was for retaliating upon the enemy, who had outraged all the laws of civilized community. He did not expect the army to accomplish im possihilties, but he expected it to relieve op pressed Maryland, and to march onward into the territory of the foe. He saitl: It is tlie determination of the people of the Confederate States to retaliate, to free them selves, to drive theiroppresaors hack into their own territory, and let our swords gleam, and banners float over their own territory, make them bleed, and strike their dagger to their hearts. We do not propose a war of conquest but we do propose a war of invasion. 1 do believe it is the true policy of war to strike wherever you find a weak point, within your own limits, or on the soil of the enemy. Mr. Lyons inquired of the sjteaker if he be lieved the Confederate army could safely go into the heart of the North? Mr. Miles re plied I say, promptly, yes! I was told by a Gen eral, for whose opinion I know the gentleman from Virginia has a high regard, tiiat give Jackson one-half of our present army, and al though there were 600,000 men in the Held, he would drive them all before him. I believe now is the time to strike the blow. The reg ular armies of McClellan and Pope are unable to meet onerflfth of the numlier they ought to be. If the House is induced to strike out the words indicated, it w ill create, with the public and the country, the erroneous idea that Con gress does not favor—w hat I believe the coun try desires—an aggressive policy. Mr. Conrad, of La., hoped “popular senti ment” would never be brought into the House He evidently had little foith in the cry of “On to Richmond” reversed. Mr. C. congratulated himself that Mr. Miles was not in command of Gen. Jackson’s army. Mr. Ayer, of South Carolina, believed the resolutions expressed the popular desire. He said it was the desire of-the people that the war should be carried into the enemy’s coun ry. He quoted Miraheau, who said that the only way to conduct a successful revolution was “to dare, to dare again, and still to dare Mr. Smith, of Ala., was opposed to the reso lutions popular opiniou was not always wise, nor could it a ways he safely followed. He said: Our troops have already achieved great vic tories, and the great success of our arms has been marked by triumphs unparalled in the history of nations. Yet the House was told by the gentleman from South Carolina that it must hack up the resolution of the administra tion. 11 in a question yet an to whether we shall be able to hold Maryland. H> ha re nit er been invited to enter Maryland, and ire do not know how we nhull be received. When our armies entered Kentucky, where we had been invited to go, we had to meet Kentucki ans steel to steel, and knee to knee, and ice were driren out by Kentuckians. This ill-fated move lost us Nashville, and led to a series of other disasters, until the great valley of the Mississippi was lost. It was an old saying that “whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad.” The jieoplc go mad twice a year, when they have any tiling to go mad about. No w ar of invasion liad ever been successful except it was for the purpose of col onizing the country which they invaded. Several other gentlemen participated in the debate, when the motion of Lyons was voted down, and the resolution passed by a vote of 66 to 1:1. Before this time, probably, the van ormg of Miles ami Ayer lias somewhat subsid ed, and the more sensible views of Lyons, Conrad, and Smith are found to have indicated the safer if not the popular policy. The telegraph has given the news of the dismissal from the service of Commander Preble, of the blockading squadron off Mobile, for allowing a vessel carrying the English flag to run the blockade, when lie had power to prevent it. The people w iil not complain of any necessary increase of stringency in On Navy Department. An application of equal stringency to some oilier Departments would not be ungrateful to the popular heart. With reference to this particular case, however, we feel confident, as do the numerous friends of Commander Preble in this city, that when all the facts shall come to lie known, he will lie restored to his command. Commander 1’. is a Portland I sty. was raised in this city, educat ed in our Public High School,and is known to be as true a sailor, as honest a man, and as loyal a citizen as ever stepped on shipboard, or obeyed an order. He is a nephew of the late Commodore Preble, and, like Ids old weather beaten kinsman, lias seen hard and honorable service. His friends, we repeat, cherish abid ing eonfidence that there must be palliating circumstances, which, w hen known, w ill cause his name to be restored to the service. We are gratified to see the following in the Boston Journal of last evenings: The summary dismissal ot an officer w ho lias so long and faithfully served his country is to bajustifled only upon the fullest inquiry, and he should have an opportunity to la heard in his own defense. Commander Preble we are enclined to think, has been made the scapegoat for the remissne.-s of some other officers of the blockading squadron who have really lacked vigilance, a lault w hich is not imputed to him, and however beneficial the example may la- to the service, we cannot but think that there has liecu unnecessary severity in dealing with him. The example would have been sufficiently striking, in the ease of so old and valued an officer, had there been but temporary suspension from duty.” Cboj-s.—From our observation during a re cent trip through some of tire towns in the valley of the Kennebec, we should judge that the grain crop in that region is unusually heavy. Corn is however an exception, it liv ing late and backward. Fruit is abuudqpt, the apple trees literally loaded. Plums are also plenty. The Kennebec farmers have no reason to complain of Provideutje this year.
The “Lying Auers.”—The disposition to falsify, to misrepresent, and to manufacture falsehoods from whole cloth, is a complaint with the Argus that long since seems to have become chronic. In its issue of yesterday morning, in an article headed “Gen. McClel lan and the radicals,” after giving examples of the New Vork Tribune’s unfairness towards and assaults upon the commanding General, it says: “and yet it [the Tribune] has an en dorser in this tery city—the Daily Press." Considering the spirit and intent of this re mark of the Argus—that it was intended to make its readers regard the Daily Press,which they do’not see, is a malignant assailerof Gen. McClellan, we pronounce it a base, malicious, malignant unmitigated falsehood, without one element of truth to redeem it, and the author of it a vile culmniator and iniscliief-maker. lie lenoics better. And while we are thus com plimenting this delectable sheet,we will add, that within the last ten days we were told by a leading Democrat of the State; a man whom that paper supported for office at the last elec tion a man who is a cordial friend of Gen. McClellan, and who can exhibit credential of good standing with his party, that the Argus would find it difficult to match;—by such a man we were assured that, the Eastern Argus was the most infamous and unprincipled pa per that he knew of in the State; that it is con trolled by a set of malignants, of doubtful loy alty, and that he will do anything that is hon orable in itself to destroy it« pernicious influ ence in the State. The Argus is welcome to this compliment, which it will have repeated to it by the gentlemen himself, be fort' many W'eeks, unless we greatly mistake his spirit. One word more: the Argus has,on frequent occasions, polluted ibs columns w ith the foul lie that the Daily Press is guilty of assaults up on Gen. McCl ellan and the administration. The readers of the Press know better; they know our ground,—that the administration must be upheld, and to this end, the military command ers kept in the Held by the administration.must be sustained. In pursuance of this policy we have not only refrained ourself from severe criticisms upon our commanders, but we have peremptorily excluded some correspondence having that bearing. As yet we have not kept back articles complimentary to our military men. We have published the most eulogistic praises of McClellan and others; when the general tide set bard against McDowell, we gave place to a w arm article in his favor, and we have desired, if we erred at all. to err by over praise, rather than by unjust censure. Gen. McClellan needs no vindication of ours. He is in a position to take care of his own rep utation. H'e think He is doing it nobly. We ask 10 one else to think so because we do. IJut j if anything can possibly tend to tarnish the I ivi I i i 11i' Ills: rltmilu untl In inn to lit.. Imml people suspicious ofhim, it is such heartless, hypocritical, selfish eulogies as are sometimes foim*l in such traitorous sheets as the Eastern Argus. Nu ord Presentation* The friends of Capt. Enoch II. Hines, in Co. B, with which lie. has 1h*ou connected as u drill officer since its formation, desiring to prove to him that his defeat in not obtaining the position of Major in the 23d Kegiinent has not changed their feelings of respect for him, on .Saturday, the 20th inst., raised a fund and procured for him an elegant sword. The pre sentation took place on Saturday afternoon in a very quiet and happy manner. The company formed at their quarters in camp Abraham Lincoln, from whence they marched, under tin* command of f apt. Chas. II. Prince, to the American House. After making proper arrangements to re ceive him, Capt. Hines was called out. lie was saluted by the 1st Lieut., Albion Thorne, who formally presented the sword with the following brief address: (’apt.

ManukACTUitrxu.—Passing through North Vassalboro’, one day last week, we noticed that workmen were engaged in laying the foundation fora new factory there. We were informed that it is to he built by the Manufac turing t ,'ompany in that place, as their present machinery is found to lie entirely inadequate to supply the demand for the excellent cloths manufactured there. The new building is to be larger than the old one, and is to In: com pleted at the earliest practicable moment. Our energetic trieml, T. S.

Johnson of the Courier hits the Press a good-natured and perhaps deserved i up for its famous Extra of Sunday. The wri ter of this claims no credit for the enterprise cvinccdin thus invading the Courier’s legiti mate Held. We were at church, fore and after noon, not asleep, but listening to capital ser mons which ought to have done us good. The operator in Boston sent word that “good news” had been received, and he forwarded the head ings put to it by the Boston press, and, the Courier office not being open, the operator here: kindly offered it to our office. Our asso ciate did not teel at liberty to withhold such news as the headings indicated would be forth coming, and^o he put on a force to put the despatch in type as fast ns it came over the wires. The next time we hope the Courier will cultivate its own Held, especially on Sun day, as we do not wish to come in for another of Bro. Johnson’s keen chastisements. City Affairs.

Camp John Pope at Bangor, is now the rendezvous of about twenty-five hundred men. The same number are quartered in Camp Keyes, at Augusta. At the latter place, a legion of visitors daily gather; some to see soldier friends, while others are prompted b an eagerness to look at the State cabinets, ol ficials,aud similar curiosities. His Excellency is fairly beseiged with men, ravenous for “loaves and fishes,” while Major Gardiner, and the Adj. General, have become almost rabid from incessant calls, by applicants for situa tions in the army. The Major has no doubt that Maine could raise five thousand men in five days,provided they could get commissions, j But to one, who is superior to self, modestly conscious if no merit, like the writer, the cabi nets atlbrd study and will repay the time spent in the State house. We often wouder why the specimens, on exhibition in the cases, are not I more valued and visited. Here is an old lock, taken trom the old Spanish house, at St. Au j gustine, Fla. This house, still standing, was built in 1559, twenty-seven years before the I erection of any other in the United States, j The walls, a specimen of which we saw, arc made of compressed mud and sea muscles. There are also to be seen, three solid shot,tak en from the side of the thirty-six gun ship Warren, blown up in the Revolution, by our people to prevent her capture by the British. The wreck of this craft now lies at Kempton’s Cove, in the town ol Winterport, on the Pe nobscot. A meteoric rock, w hich fell on IIuu neweU's Point, Phipsburg, in 1850, is an attrac tive object. In the main entrance to the Cap itol, is suspended from the ceiling, a flag tak en from tlie rebels in the battle of Williams burg, by Corp. Geo. M. Bragg, Co. F, 4th Maine Regiment, in a hand-to-hand encounter, with the secesh color guard. Silently, but grandly does it speak of the loyalty and daring of t he Pine Tree State and her brave son. The portraits of the Colonial Gov. Pownall, Ex Gov. King, and the late Hon. Reuel Williams, ornament the hull and are much admired. There are encamped under Col. Ricker, twenty-four full companies, and an election for Colonel,in one of the regiments was to take place Saturday The telegraph line, completed to Skowhc gan, fairly delights the natives thereof.

Farms and other real estate being, from their na ture, more exposed than other objects of taxation, would suffer severely from the constant draft tor money, created iu sustaining the government during this war, aud they could not long endure the burden i a direct tax would impose upon them. Maine’s proportion of that tax has been liquidated j and paid. In order to provide in part for the future expenses of the war. Congress wisely determined to j raise money from the |>eople without State interven tion, and without taxing the producing c asses. To effect this object, and to make the tax equal in every State, they have passed what has Ix-en termed an Ex I cjse Act. Pa»inir hv tli«> tiirrn.r tl> ni.rlmiic tl.n fisherman. the himbennan, and many other pursuit* so essential to our prosperity as a people, this act levies its light contributions upon the we Ith, the Inxuries, the pleasures, and business of the country. It confines its operations chiefly to the cities, towns and villages, ami gathers its revenues from the chan nels in which finals the money of the country. It «!oe« not tax real estate of any description, nor with a very few exceptions, personal property. The excess ovc.* 4*» ounces of silver spoons or plate, aud riding carriages of all description*. ralueil with the harness at £75 and upwards, must be amassed. With the exception of these two Hmh» there i« not prob ably a farmer nor a mechanic in this district, within the act. These are taxed at a sum so inconsiderable that it is to be hop«*d every citizen whp desire* the Perpetuity of his government will, in this terrible cri sis of its affairs, assume cheerfully his proportion of its necessary burdens, and if he' is fortunately the owner of an article liable to be assessed, put a value upon it which shall bring it within the act. It mav In* the onlv opportunity he will ever have to contri bute a dollar for the preservation of his government. The professional man the retail tiader whose sales exceed one thousand dollars per rear—the man ufacturer of am article the sales of which exceed six hundred dollars per year—the hotel keeper—the roan whose yearly income exceeds six bundled dol lars. aud several other employment* are to be assessed. It is presumed all such are couversaut with the pro visions oft hi* act. 1 would call their attention to sections from six to eleven, inclusive, aud section fifty-eight. These sections impose the duty upon every person liable to be assess'd for a tax or license, to call imme diately upon the assistant assessor and make up aud sign their several assessments. If they neglect so to do. lie is required to increase their tax fifty per cent., and no discretionary authority is vested in the assis tant or the assessor’to make any abatement of this amount. See section 11. It will be perceived by a careful examination of these sections, that digress, relying upon the patri oti-m of the business men of the’country, proceeded upon the hypothesis that every one liable to be taxed w ould substantially assess himself, and sign the bills fixing the amount he was to pay. If the act, there fore is complied with, the assistant assessor is but a recording officer, who receives and properly enters the lists delivered him by the citizen, and his duty in relation to fixing a v a)nation upon objects liable to taxation, is rather advisory than absolute. In order however to prevent the selfish, the indifferent, or the tiaitorou*. lrom escaping their proper proportions of the public burdeu, digress has fixed the penalties lor their neglect, prescribed in section 11. Having been intrusted by the President with the duty of seeing that these tax liats are properly pre pared, and seasonably delivered to the collector of this district, I respectfully request all good citizens w ithin it to call immediately upon the assistant asses sor of the assessment district where they reside, and deliver him lists as required in the sixth section of the act. lie will give all |m>isoiis the necessary’ in formation to enable them to comply with its provis ions, aud furnish blanks therefor.
