What Form of Government.

The Augusta Chronicle and Sentinel pub
fishes an article upon "Thc Form of Gov
crnmcnt," Southern States are 10 adopt.
We extract one paragraph:
Some of the wiscst and best citizens
propose II hereditary Constitutional mon
archy; but however good that may be in
itself, the most important point to dis
cover is, whether or not the people are
prepared for it. 1t is thought again by
others that we shall be able to 90 on for a
generation or two, in new Confederacy,
with additional safe guards-such for in
stance as an Erecutire for Htc, uastly re-
Sttcted suffrage, Senators elected for Wc, or
for long period, say hoenty-onc yearS, and
the most popular branch of assembly
elected for seen gears, the Judiciary abso-
lu.ely independent, and for life, or good
behavior. The frequency of elections
and the universally of suffrage, with the
attendant arousing of the peoples pas
sions, and the necessary sequence OF
demagogues being elevated to high sta
tions, are thought 10y many to be tie grea,
causes of trouble among us. We throw
out these suggestions that the people
may think of them, and act as their in.
terests require. Our own opinion is that
the South might be the greatest nation
on earth, and might maintain, on the ba
sis of African slavery, not only splend
id Government, but secure Republican
Government. But still our fears arc
that through anarchy we shall reach tn,
despotism of military chieitains, and fin
ally be raised again to monarchy.

SUFFERING FROM THE WANT OF MONEY
The greatest hardship, it is stated, prevails
in New York and Brooklyn among naval
officers, sailors wives and others, owing to
the non arrival of the usual monthly
money from the United States Treasury.
Officers have been insulted by butchers,
grocers, tailors, &C.; sailors are daily re-
buked by hungry land-sharks and suffers,
and poor women, whose husbands, away
on the ocean, have left them half pay,
are suffering ieariully because of their in
ability to fulfil theirpecuniary obligations.
No pen can Adequately describe the wretch
edness which even weeks delay of pay
ment causes in the navy. The money
for the Savannah's crew was received and
paid TO them at Brooklyn on "Wednesday

A Unconstitutional Monarchy."

If the Federal Union is broken up,
what sort of Government shall we have
in the South? 1t is well CROUCH 10 con-
slider this question. a distinguished citi-
zen of Georgia, Mr.. Barlow, is represent
ed as having suggested, recently, in a
speech at Milledgeville, an obliteration
of State lines, and consolidated govern
ment. Since, a writer in the Columbus
(Ga.) Times (Breckinridge democrat) has
proposed a Monarchy. We give his COM
munication below
Let us Reason Together.
Permit humble individual to lay be-
fore you a few thoughts that are burned
into his heart of hearts by theirvery truth.
The first great thought is this, t,S,,...,
stitution known as the "Federal Govern.
ment." established by the people of the
United States of America, is q failure
This is q fact, which cannot be gainsaid.
1t has necer been in the power of the
Federal Government" to enforce ALL its
own laws within its own Territory il has
therefore, been measurably failure from
the beginning, but its first convincing
evidence OF weakness was in allowing
one branch OF its organization to pass an
unconstitutional law 1.-THE Missouri Com
promise.) Its next evidence of decrepti-
tude was Its inability to enforce a Con-
stitutional law, (the fugitive slave law, J
the whole fabric being shaken to its foun-
dation, by the only single attempt of en-.
torcement, made by its chief officer,
president Pierce.)
l need not enlarge in this direction
The Federal Government" is future.
What then? The States, of course. re.
vert to their original position, each sove.
reign within itself. There can be no 9TH
er just conclusion. This, then, being our
position, the question for sober, thinking.
earnest men is, what shall we do for the
future?
take it for granted that no man in
his senses would advocate the remaining
in so many petty sovereignties. We
should be worse than Mexicanized by
that process.
What then shall we do?
In the first place, | would say, let us
look around and see if there is a govern
ment of an enlightened nation that has
not yet proved failure, but which is
now, and has ever been productive of
people.
If such a government can be found,
a government whose first and only OBJ
ject is the good, the REAL GOOD mot tcmc;c,i
good, an ignis. tat,ns which fear both our
fathers and ourselves have too much run
after in this country of all its people, il
such government exists, let us examine
it carefully; if it has apparent errors, las
what human institution has not) let us
avoid them. Its beneficial arran gements
let us adopt. Let us not be turned aside
by its name, nor be lured by its preten-
sions. Try it by its works, and adopt or
condemn it by its fruits. No more erperi-
nicI,tS.
81 speak as to wise men, judge ye what
say"
am one of few who have ever dared
to think that Republicansm was failure
from its inception, and have never
shrunk from giving my opinion when it
was worth while.
| have never wished to see this Union
disrupted, but if it must be, then | raise
my voice for return to
CONSTITUTIONAL MONARCHY.

CockaueS cannot save us III the crisis,
neither will it do to start q new Govern
ment on the self-destructive fundamental
idea that the election of chief officer in
it, who is obnoxious to the defeated party,
is just cause for its overthrow. This is to
strike at stability, which is the first essen
tial OF good government. And yet an
issue has been 'precipitated" -" "thc
Southern heart'has been "fired."
We insist that submission will bring
upon the South contumely and contempt,
and that the syren song of Union with
out conditions, is little short of moral
treason. Something must be DONE
Shall Alabama and other States secede
separately and thus drop out of the Con-
federacy? Then we leave most impor-
tant advantages in the hands of the
Black Republican enemy. Shall we go
out in a body through the joint action of
the Southern States in Southern Conven-
ton? Then we will have right to de-
mand division of the public property,
the public treasury, arms, munitions and
armaments. The latter course is most
likely to be a peaceful revolution" 1t
is preferable, too, because it requires de-
liberation and time, and both are indis-
pensable to wise and safe action in an
epoch so momcntous as the death of one
great empire and the birth of another
What a man shall do personally and
what man shall advise politically are two
things. Personally, every true eand South
ern citizen should burnish his arms and
be ready to fight. Politically, what would
be sound and prudent policy to-day may
be rash and reckless month hence.
1t is very easy for fiippant fools to earn
an easy reputation for Southern spirit by
saying, ''let's secede before breakfast, -
but the wise statesman knows that great
and vigorous nation like this cannot cx
pire without the struggles ard convul
sivc throes inseparable from so gigantic {
death, and that new one canrot be
erected upon its ruins before breakfast.
We scorn and reject the thought will

them to sober realization of the conse-
quences of their sectional crusade upon
the South, and when our demand shall
be solmnly rejected they will be placed
so clearly in the wrong that perfect una
nimity in the action of the middle and
border Southern States may be reasona-
bly, counted on. ...r
What that action will be assume to be
certain separation from all further con-
nection with the Northern States. But
what should follow this final dissolution
OF our connection with the North will be-
long so entirely to the sovereign will OF
the people of Tennessee, in connection

r.tord. s Ss,7s . 'sQt propose to join the cotton
1RI WI to consumate her Sc
'Session at fhe same time that they shall
have consumated theirs. If / am not
mistaken in the sentiment of Tennessee
our people require an honest effort to be
made to save the Union by demanding
additional guarantees, and that it is only
when this effort shall have failed that
they propose to resort to secession. If
am right in this understanding of the
sentiment of Tennessee, see no necessi-
ty for any hasty or inconsiderate action.
Let us move in the perilous crisis with
firmness and determination, but not
with haste. The responsibility upon the
middle over border States is greater-on
none greater than on Tennessee. If by
our prudence and frmness we can be in
strumental in preserving the Union, OF
in so maintaining peaceful relations, that
future reconstruction of govern.
ment embracing the whole or the largest
portion of the present Confederacy will
be practicable, we will have been fully
compensated for any sacrifice of feeling
we may now make in resisting the i'm
pulses to follow hastily the example oi
our more Southern sisters.
