esced in by this Government and by the people of
the United States that the Constitution can be
over borne, that this Federal Government can
usurp powers which are not delegated, but are
expressly reserved to the States, the days Of this
Republic are already passed the days of the en-
pire have begun we are preparing to re enact,
on perhaps IA greater scale. the history Of the de-
cline and fall of the empire of Rome. THE
maintenance nviolate Of the rights of the States,
ard especially the right Of each State to order
and control its own domestic institutions accord
ing to its own Judgment exclusively, is essential
to that balance OF pow r on which the perfection
and endurance OF our political fabric depend"
Without that, they cease 10 be States ut ALL and
the Federal Government becomes one vast consoli-
dated empire. This was as true in the beginning
rs it was in 1860, when we made it the pledge up
on which we come into power and it will be true
forever, whether men in the heat and passion of
this hour shall heed it or trample it under their
feet
This Constitution of ours gives to us all the
powers which are necessary to meet even the cyi
gcncies Of civil war. 1t is just as perfect in this
as in every other respect. 1t meets all the neccs
sites OF our situation whether of war, insurrcc-
tion, or peace The idea that at any time, for one
single hour this Constitution, because civil war
exists, is dissolved or gives way to martial law,
as to something higher and above ITSELF at the
discretion or caprice of the President or Congress
or both together, is hcresy as fatal to free gov
ernment and rs full of all evil as the whispcrings
OF Satan to Eve in the garden of Eden. No. sir
no. The Constitution is Just as much above mar
tial law rs it is above civil law. From it alone
are derived all the powers OF the Government. and
under it alone can they be exercised.
The spirit here has manifested and the
views expressed are such as beft patriot a
statesman and freeman; they are SO differ
ent from the spirit and the views of Mr..
Doolittle's Chicago speech as light is from
darkness or as patriotic maniness is from
partizan seryility. The contrast or the con-
tradction is instructive. 1t shows how thor.
oughly within the last year the radicals have
subjugated the conservatives OF the Republic
can party, and how bow much the hope Of
the people and of the Union depends on the
overthrow Of that runous party at the ballot
box. The Republican party is now out and
out radio al party-an abolition party--a
disunion party. Upon its overthrow at the
baI'ct-box depends the suppression of the
rebellion, the salvation of the coutrv, and
the welfare of the cause of human liberty
Let every patriot in the land, whilst faithful
y doing his utmost against the armed foe in
the field, GRID his soul from the great civil
struggle which is upon us; and let the friends
of public freedom in all other lands send up
their prayers for the success of its votares
here at the ballot'box no less than in the
field.

1t will lie observed hat in all this organi-

pledges his life, his fortune, and his sacred
honor, to support the administration uncon
ditlonally, 10y the arms furnished through the
Adjutant general Of the state. This is what
Thompson Campbell, and other leading re
pubcans mean when they say that the State
government shall not pass into the hands Of
the democrats, whatever may be the result Of
the election.
Citizens of California; are you prepared to
surrender your Liberties and your right of
suffrage to secret conspiracy, armed though
it be, which aims at the subversiou Of the
Constitution and the erection of military
despotism in its stead You now know their
designs, and you will be false to Yourselves
and recreant to your heritage of freedom if
you permit it, A people who will allow
themselves to be subjugated by towards and
knaves who plot treason in secret leagues do
not deserve to be Free

SIR-There will be meeting of the Grand
Council U. L. A. for California, at the city
and county of San Francisco, on Tuesday,
the 4th day of August next, at which it is
hoped every Council in the State will be rep.

Those Councils, therefore, that have not
already done 50, will please elect their dele
gates and report to the Grand Secretary.
1t is expected that the delegates from the
various subordinate Councils will be prepar-
ed to make an exact and minute report of
the strength and condition Of their respective
Councils; the vote of the precinct where the
same is located, and its probable division at
the coming election. Such reports will state
particuarly the military capacity of the re-
spective Councils with reference to the or
ganized militia and the Home Gaurd.
AS no proxies are allowed in the Grand
Council, those delegates who are unable to
attend the meeting are respectfully request
ed to resign their positions, and thus allow
their respective Councils to elect delegates
who will be able to be present.
Only those Councils that have received
their charters will be allowed to be reprel

ordinate Councils that are now working
under dspensations are requested to report
Immediately to the Grand Secretary and
