This experience of real life is from a corres pondent in Illinoiv and is as good as anything we have recently read: - Your correspondent has an intimate friend, Joe ,'who was until recently cashier of Bank in the good old State of TennSsiee. Now to say that Joe was handsome, accomplished, and withal very entertaining, would be but to express the opinion entertained of htm by nineteen-twentieths of the fair sex with whom he came in contact. He was, to use a Western expressson. a "regular heart smasher among, the w'omenj" and it may not be improper to stslte, just here, that no one bad a more exalted opinion of bis capabilities io that line than the aforesaid Joe himself. As te and your correspondent were on the most intimate terms imaginable, and accus tomed, in the "halcyon days of boyhood, to unfold to each, all our ; plans, and purposes of the ; future not even omitting the delicate matter of the heart-! was not at all surprised, about a year since to receive a letter from him, in which, after referring to. our past friendship and the con fidence with which be had always consulted me on any important subject, be assured me that be now needed ray advice on a matter which, perhaps, was involved bis future happiness and destiny! I of course, felt concerned for my friend at this bnt was somewhat relieved after reading the following: And now, dear S , without giving yon time to imagibe anything very hor rible, I will frankly tell yon that I am ia love. Perhaps you will say. Wall, what if yoa are? that is nothing new; - Bat just wait until I get through. Tod see if it was a common love-scrape, such as we used to have when we were boys, I could get along with it well enough. But this time it is a little complicated a kind of doable affair. Come now; S , dost think I art a fool, but the fact i Fony L -. tbe prettiest little creature in the world.

The former I love, the latter t esteem aad admire. I think I may say, without being liable to the charge of vanity, that neither of them are indifferent toward me, bat that an offer of marriage on my part would be readily accep ted by either. Now, S , what shall I do? Mar ry the girl I really love, and remain a poor devil alt my days; or, by forming an alliance with the other, at once acquire wealth and position? Answer me? I did answer bim. Ia my letter whieb, pardon me, I do not ntean to copy here I expatiated largely upon the blessings of "wed. ded life," connubial bliss," "loving hearts" and all the other "sugar and honey" expressions I could remember; and closed by conjuring him, as he valued his happiness, by all means to marry tbe one.be loved; and as for the beautiful and accomplished and wealthy ttary W ,1 would come f4 d'ee lime to marry her myseIC 1 heard nothing more fromf my love preplexed friend for about six months, when he wrote me as follows: "Sear S I coffrted thenr both (the rich one first,) and coftda't jt either tt theart Good bye; I am going to Kansas."

Chief Jostice Taney, delivered the following decision in the ease : - ' ' -; . - " So at as my poWer goe"s, the CToari feell its duty to enforce its protest against the contempt committed. The military is subject to civil jurisdiction ; and I wilt briefly set down the coarse I intend to take. I ordered the at each n eat yesterday, because, upon the face of the return, the detention of the prisioner was unlawful, upon two grounds : Fist, the President, under the Constitution and laws of the United States, can not suspend the privilege of tbe writ of HaVeas corpus, or authorize any military officer to do so. Second, the military officer has no right to arrest and detain a person subject to tbe rules of articles of war, for an offense against the laws of tbe Union, except in and by tbe Judicial authority or subject to its control ; and if the party is arrested by the military, it is the duty of the officer to deliver him over immediately to the civil authority, to be dealt with according to lay. ' I forbore yesterday to state orally the provisions of the Constitution which make tl ese principles the; fandameatal laws of the Union, because an Oral statement might be misunderstood ia some portions of it, and I shall therefore put my opinion in writing, and file it with-the Clerk in the office of the Court in the course of this week. . . ; In relation to the present return the Court said : With relation to the present return, I would s'taU that the Marshal has the power to summon the pdiie cdmilatus, and take forcible possession of tbe party attached, but as the force is ad lafgS at the Fort at this time the effort would be oSeless. Thai being the case the Court has no power to dire'fc't the forcible taking of the party, bat only had power rfndor the laws of the land, when the party is brought before it, to force the liber ation of the prisonef by an order of the Court, imposing fine eirid Imprisonment upon theofScer making the arrest: but it. by a-.superior force the party manages to keep out of the&ch of the Court, if ca'a bul e'aler it j pfottst against it. I will reduce to wn'U'n'g my opinion ia the ca'se, and having done so shall report to the President in person, the facts, lay before him tbe bfficial documents' fa the case.

Journal saya t ' p - A most diabolical murder was committed last Saturday, near Wilmington. Mr. Wilkinson, a farffier living short distance from a neighbor by the name of Mace, heard tHe report of a gun in the direction of the tatter's house, and shortly after saw smoke as if the house was on fire-Together with others whot happened to be passing by, he rushed to the spot,, to find Mr. Mace; his wifej and an orphan child who lived with them, lying dead near .the house, and it set on fire. Mr. Mace was found with his lungs shot to pieces by -the near disc args of a double-bar. reled gun j his wife had t an cut to pieces with an ax, and the boy.murde -ed with' a heavy club. Upon the forehead of Mace the marks of a blow from the breech of a gun were found, as were also fragments of tae locks, which were knocked .off by 1 theviolcnce of the blow, and which the murderers bad not taken time to remove or conceal. The Era was not extinguished, but the bodies were rescue 1, and immediate steps taken for the arrest of tie perpetrators of the outrage. Two fellows were arested on suspicion. Subsequently it was disoovc red that the fragments of the locks found 'resen Med those ' upon Mr. Wilkinson's own gnn, wt h his own son bad a little while before borrow 1 and bad not yet r& turned. Upon being as'.. .1. for the gun, be replied that He would g'o 1 nd get it." t He .wen V and has not been, seen since.:.

Certain . newspapers misrepresent that object so assiiaoosly, and their mischievous tirades are copied in the ! South with so muca avidity, as furnishing admirable fuet to feed. the flame of secessionism with, thatUhe troth cannot be too frequently or loo dl odly disseminated. The Mississippi journal-, jiinstace, contain copious extracts from the fjf ojk gribunc and the Evening Fbst of the most violent character; The Jackson Mississippian says s " " We publish these to exhibit to the Sooth the animus of her enemies. The real cause of tbe war if not to mainiin the Union' -not to 'pro tectthe Federal property nor to 'hold possession of the Federal metropolis bbt to destroy the social organization of the Southern States." It is to' guard against suchi effects th'at efforts afe very prop'erly made in official directions to show th'at this ts not a war of subjugation) that this it not ;war for. the extinction of slavery where ft constitutionally exists ; that is. is not a war waged under the auspices of the Abolition Society that it is not a "war of freedota, nor a ?war of sectioos. nor a ''wj'J dT conquest,' nor yet a war of aggression or oppression ef any other description;- It ii simply st -rrfar entered into by" h'ax portion of the American people srfro are loyal to' the -'ooostitu'tionally-elected gove rn-meut of the United States,' in order to enforce lb laws of the land, and to'maintain tlu'e natioo-alitv of the federal Union against the political heresy that is but a' tempbraray confederacy of sovereign btates. ' u-. ' '''i There -are journalists, as we have said, who labor amongst ns to demonstrate and to render it a war of the Norths against he Souh a war of servile emancipation a war to ef tfrpate the "peculiar institution from the whole ' United States. . There are pulpits, We regret to say,' which threaten to make this fratrieidal combat still more fierce and sanginary, by inculcating .the same incendary notion. There are missionaries of Abolitionism abroad who diUigeatly falsify the issue in the hope of nccompiishing their narrow jjud dishonest aim, by falsely assuming that the popular spirit of the North is as reckless as their own. But, truth is mierbtr. and wilt prevail and did we want better proof of tae non-aggresive policy or the Jb ederal Government than that afforded by its published declarations, we might torn to the proclamation of Gen. Bailer at Baltimore -we might turn to the letter of General Harney at SL Louis we might turn to the conduct of Commodore Pendergast, who sent back seven fugitive slaves who would have escaped from Norfolk in the U.S. ship Cumberland -we might turn to the recent successful application to Indiana for assistance to suppress a servile insarrectioa ia Kentacky.
