of trial by jury shall be preserved, etc. This amendment, as well as the fifth, which declares that no person shall be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law, grew out of the opposition manifested to the adoption of the Constitution, because it did not, in terms, provide for the trial by jury in civil cases. It is needless to remind an American of the anxiety with which this institution has been watched. It is well described by Mr. Justice Story, in the case of Parsons vs. Bedford, 3 Peters, 446.

Price to muster and organize the militia of theid all crossed the river and pushed on to Lexington, thirty miles distant. Smith thereupon returned to St. Joseph; and Gen. Sturgis, who was advancing by another route to the relief of Lexington, being confronted by a superior Rebel force under Gen. Parsons, likewise retreated northward, with the loss (Pollard says) of all his tents and camp equipage. Gen. Pope had telegraphed Gen. Fremont, on the 16th, from Palmyra, as follows: The troops I sent to Lexington will be there the day after to-m
