The Signs of the Times.

The "Sigus of the times" indicate tho
overwhelming triumph for the Democra-
cy- The disintegration of the Republican
party has begun. The radical and conser-
vative wings are at daggers' points. The
extreme shoddyites of New England cau-
not see anything to admire in President
johnson. Ever since the war begun, they
have been plotting and laboripg for the
the total destruction of the doctrine of State
Rights. They have been fondly cherish
ing the idea of a strong central govern
ment. Consolidation has been the one OBJ
ject for which they have been working.
President johnson, however, in the most
emphatic language, declares himself
friend to States Rights. He announces
himself as an uucompromisiug enemy of
consolidation or Capitalization -; with one
sentence from his mouth he blasts the
hope Of the radicals. The lovers of mill
tary despotism-the "higber law advo-
Gates, who imagine that the Ststes have
no rights which the Federal Government
is bound to respect are silenced by sim
gle stroke of the Presidents pen. True to
his old Democratic autecedents, the Pres
ident plants his foot on the constitution,
adopts his Restoration policy in the light
of the Constitution, and intinates very
strongly that he is not to be driven from
his position by the lying statements of
unprincipled newspaper correspondents,
the well-dissembled thrusts of Pennsylva-
MIA politicians. under the leadership of
Stevens, or the open attacks of the New
England fanatics, Sumner, Wilson, ct id
om,ne genus Valley Spirit.

Which Will Ye Choose.

1t is said that history but repeats it.
self. 1t is the same with politics. The
identical question which was mooted at
the foundation Of our government asitatcs
the public mind to-day. 1t is not so
much a question Of policy on the part of
the administration as question of gov
eminent; really whether we shall have a
republican government or not.
In the convention of 1887 parties d.
vided on the issues of to.day. The Ham,
iltonians wanted strong government,
with the controlling influence at the Fed
eral head; States were to be mere prov
inces, and their Governors to be appoint.
ed by the President. State lines were to
be obliterated, and the whole country to
be consolidated into powerful, central
lied empire. The growing tendency to-
wards Capitalization led to the amend
ments to the Constitution of the United
States, soon after its formation. At the
latter date the same great question was in
issue between Mr.. Jefferson and the elder
Adams, when the triumph of the former,
with his successors in the same faith, set
tied it for long series of years. The ro-
bellion has given the power of the country
into the hands of men who bold the Ham
iltouian ideas; and they are laboring with
great assiduity to have the government re-
modelled to suit their notions.
The question of restoring the States
lately in rebellion to their constitutional
relations affords the pretext to revolution
ize our form Of government. The negro,
who was used by them as wedge to d.
vide the Union four years ago, is again
their instrument to carry out their assault
npon the Constitution. The abolition
psrsy claim the greatest possible latitude
The aegis & intelligencer. [volume] (Bel Air, Md.) 1864-1923, 1865-10-13

Tor the federal government. They give
Congress the power to exclude representa-
tatives from the South, unless their State
Constitutions are remodeled to suit the
views of the dominant party. If they
can thus keep States out of Congress, they
have the power to turn those out which
are in. The doct. iue is revolutionary and
dangerous 1t enables the dominant
party III Congress to seize upon the gov
eminent whichever they may be prepared,
by excluding all who oppose their views.
One Of the plalnest features of our gov
erument is the sovereignty of the States
under the Constitution, which if not to be
seen elsewhere, is found in the reserva-
ton of the powers not delegated. The
abolition party regard no such constitu-
tional provision. Thaddeus Stevens, in
his late speech at Lancaster, ignores tn,
States at tue South altogether, and calls
upon the government to hold them as
conquered provinces; the expense to be
paid by the federal government. He and
his party believe in the death of States,
that they can commit political suicide,
while the Democracy believe State will
never die. His doctrine is that of seoes-
sion admits the disruption of the gov
eminent, and that the South was right
1t makes the war a failure, and takes
from us all we hoped to gain from victory.
Lie yields the whole questi,n to those who
were against us. Had we no higher aim
in fighting the battles of the country for
four years !? -
The abolition party claim for Congress
the right to legislate for the States, in d.
rect violation of the Constitution. q. They
contend it can fix the right of suffrage
which the constitution expressly leaves
with the States, and thus expedite confer
on the manumittcd slaves of the South
the right to vote, and control the cleo
tions. Our people must choose between
these two doctrines. They must answer
at the ballot-box in October, whether they
will have the government their fathers
made, or stroug, centralized empire, with
authority at Washington, to override con-
situations, both State and national and all
State laws that stand in their way. The
former is economical, while the latter is
an expensive government as we'll as tyran-
nical.-Doylestown { Pa) Democrat.
