getting wind of it, sent rumor that Gov.
Morton, of Indiana, and Gov Yates, of
Illinois, accompanied by large delega-
ton of Republicans, with bands of music
ETC., would pass through at certain hour.
Immense crowds of enthusiastic Republi-
cans repaired to the depot, hats in hand,
ready for the expected cheers When the
train thunderedsin, an aged and venerable
owner of a pair of fabulous ears stuck his
head out of a stock car and gave vent to
"a long agonizing hee-haw that fairly shook

not only opposed to the genius and organ
lzatlon of our civil government, but they
have caused disaster in the conduct Of the
war ~.
While the War Department set aside
the authority of the Judiciary, and over
rides the laws of States, the Governors of
States meet to shape the policy of the
General Government, the National Legis-
lature appoints committees to interfere
with the military conduct of the war, and
Senators combine to dictate the Executive
choice of constitutional advisers. The
natural results of meddling and intrigue
have followed. While our armies have
gained victories in fields remote from the
Capital, within its influence the heroic
valcr of cur soldiers and the skill Of our
Generals are thwarted and paralyzed.
STATE RIGHTS.
Not only must the National Constitu-
tion be held inyiolate, but the rights of
States must be respected as not less sacred
There are differences of. opinion as to the
dividing line between State and National
Jurisdictions, but there can be as to
the existence of such separate Jurisdictions,
each covering subjects of legislation and
Jurisprudence essential to the public Sc
curity and welfare A consolidated gov
ernment in this vast country would de-
stroy the essential home-rights and lib
critics of the people. The soyereignties
of the State, except as they are limited by
the Constitution, can never be given up.
Without them our Government can not
stand.s 1t was made, and it can be chang
ed by State agency. This is shown by
the following provisions of the instru-
ment itself:
{ "Ihe ratification of the conventions of
nine States shall be sufficient to the estab-
lishment of this Constitution between the
States so ratifying the same.p stsoa
l.l Again, thres-fourths ofsthe States can
add to or take away from the powers of
the General Government by demanding
convention in which amendments can be
proposed, which, if ratified by three
fourths of the States, become parts of the
Constitution. Fga
While they can thus take away or add
to its power, the General Government can
in no way touch one right of the States or
invade their jurisdiction.
The obligations which rest upon the
States to represent the Constitution, laws
and authority of the General Government,
also demand that the General Government
shall show equal respect for the rights
and constituted authorities of States.
To State legislation and authorities, we
look for the good order of sociefy, the Sc
eurity of life and property, the protection
Of. our homes, and all that is nearest and
dearest to US, in the relations, duties and
actions Of life 1t is dangerous and
demoralizing to show contempt for State
authorities and law It undermines alike
foundations OF State and national Gov
ernment, by breaking up the social sys-
TEN. If home laws are not respected, the
more general authority will not be re-
gardod. .z@sS -

LIMITATIONS OF POWER.

There are not only obligations resting
upon our people toward our authorities,
but under our political system there are
limitations between the departments of
the Government and between the States
and National Governments, which must be
observed to secure the public safety At
this time these warning words of Wash
ington have peculiar significance: 80 -
G 1t is important, likewise that the hab-
its of thinking in free country should
inspire caution in those interested with it's
administration to confne themselves with
in their respective constitutional spheres,
avoiding, in the exercise of the powers of
one department, to encroach upon the
other. The spirit of encroachment tends
to consolidate the power Of all departments
in one, and thus to create, whatever the
form of government, real despotism. A
Just estimate OF that love of power, and
proneness to abuse it, which prsdominates
lin the human heart, is sufficient to satisfy
us of the truth of this position" 'iG
The Legislative, Executive and Judicial
Departments are cS-o d nate It's equa ly
|treasonable to resist the rightfu autho ori-
ty of either. To overthrow the power OF
either Department is revolution Exeeu-
tive right, Executive power, and judicial
independence are alike sacred. Disregard
for the limits of State and National juris-
dictions, and the interference ofson De-
parsment with the duties of another, are
