Georgia Rejects the Constitutions Amend
mont.
) AUGUSTA, November 9.-The Legislature has re-
jaotcd the Constitutional Amendment The re-
ieotng resolution reads as follows: ssTho Lcgis-
kturo of Georgia declines to ratify the amendment
adding 14th sootion to the Constitution Of the
Unitcd Statos." It was originally moved in tho
Senate 10 postpone the consideration to somo
future day, but was altered to tho more adoption
of tho above resolution, and this passcd-yeas 3s,
nays none-a full Senate voting. In the House there
were yeas 1s1, nays 2-ELINGroN, of Gilmer, and
HUMPHREYS, of Fannin.
Tho Committee who reported this resolution
accompanied it with along argument, in substance
as follows: First, that the States OF tho Unitod
States alone arc authorized to consider. amend
ments to the Constitution. Second, that such
amendments must be proposed by two-thrds of
Congress, or two-thrds Of the Legislatures of the
states Third, that Georgia was ono Of the origi
nal States, and must always have continued such
unloss She reserved tho right to secede, or gave
tho Federal Government tho right to reject her.
Tho report adduces the legislation Of Congress,
tho prooamations Of the President, and the issues
made during the war by the Government of the
United States to provo that it was hold by that
GoTornmcnt that no State could sccede and that |
war only interrupted tho practical relations of the
States, and that the suppression of the rebellion
WAS TO restore these relations fully, and the Con-
st;tutioa then became tho supreme low of the |
Land.
Tho argument then goes on to say that Georgia |
and the other Southern Statos integral parts Of
Congress-, and that no Constitutional Congress can
b. convonod while such integral parts arc forcibly
excluded. 1t says that tho adoption of the Eman-
eipaton Amendment no precedent for tho
adoption OF this. Tho Southern States OF that
tm9 had no delegation to be received into Con-
gross, as now whom donod admission. It then
concludes by saying that as The amendment in
question was not proposed by two-thirds of O Con-
stitutional Congress-, the committee recommended
tho adoption of tho abovn resolution
