tremble, for they are the portents that
threaten universal ruin. If the present
disturbed, unsettled, lawless condition OF
affairs continues, the earthquake is fnev-

lent and delusiye fabric Of credit and
Inflated prices and Imaginary wealth
must collapse like a bubble. Il will give
+" the country generally great satisfsc-

continuance Of their hollow prosperity.
Therefore it is, and because the con-
tinuance of a military despotism will
ensure the dlsintegration Of Radicalism,
and The triumph Of the Democratic party
on the fields of all It's old victories, that
it Is announced to the South that they
are not to be allowed the poor privilege
Of passive submission To The edicts Of
tyranny.

Wepublished on Sunday, without COM
ment, the report Of q speech made by
Major General Pope, at a grand ban
que" recently given by the citizens of
Atlanta to that officer as commander Of
that particular military district " in
which the late State Of Georgia has
been submerged. We propose now to
"oTsr = few iemarks" upon the whole
affair.
Georgia is one of those Provinces, in
which the widows aud orphans of those
heroic men Of the Common People, who
had no interest in slavery, and less stiIl
in the fortunes Of those politicians who
were ready, in 1860 and 1861, ''to eat
fire and drink the orontes dry are
starving, as the people Of ireland DO oc-
~casionally, and those Of India, and in
behalfof whom constant clamorous, pit
iful, wailing and whising appeals for
food are necessarily shOwered on the
rabble OF the North, to be responded TO
by Scaliwagton on Lake Michigan. and
Porkopolis on the river Ohio, by ribald
iests and scurvy contributions, fang to
them contemptuousiy, as .p0rtly negroes
cling bones to NANCY dogs. 1t is ia that
State, and in the town whose people the
great hummer General SHERMAN drove
to the Ohio, as the Brazilians drive cat
tie over the Pampas,-it is in the State
Of TOOsBS aud STEPHENS, a State
which still pretends to have anees
trail %glories. and a right to cherish
the memories Of MACON and TRoUP,-in
that State which, in 1857, placed at the
head OF her commissions TO her dele
gates who were to sid in making { Com
stitutioual Compact Of Government
between Sovereign States, the proud
words, ''THE STATE or GEORGIA, sY

declaring his motto to be "audacity =

campaign, he was Consigned to merited

the grace OF ANDREw JoBssoN, emerges
from obscurify 10 eomrnaod the Military

THE PAsT. rHE GREAT TEACHER.
THE SENATE.

SENATE.
In the provisions Of the Constitution
concerning the Senate, the divine right
Of numbers to rule was utterly d;sre-
garded. Not only vas each State to SIT
there by her two Senators; but these
were to serve for six years, one-third OF
the Senate was to go out every two years,
and the Senators were to be elected not
by the people Of the State, but by the
Legislature. Now, by force Of the term
itself. an election BY the Legislature must
be held, as an act or joint resolution must
lie passed, By it as a Legislature, that Is,
each House, il there be two, sitting in its
own chamber, organized and acting as q
House. and the action of a constitutional
usiority OF it being in law the action Of
the whole body and Of every member oi
IL. When it was directed that the SEN
ators should be elected by the Legisla-
tire. it followed that each House must
vote separately, and that, as in passing
laws. the vote Of the Upper branch,
though il were the less numerous
body, would count just as much as
that of the Lower branch; that is,
each House would virtually give one
vote, determining within itself how that
vote should be given. II the two Houses
met aud voted in joint convention, and,
all the votes being counted together, a
majority Of the whole elected the candi-
date for whom they were cast, then it
might very well happen that the person
elected might receive less than half the
votes OF the members Of one House
present, or there might not even be q
quorum Of the members Of one House
present; in either of which cases, it is
evident, hat person would not receive
ihe vote Of that House fthe Legislature,
and there would really be no election
by the Legislature" but only in part
10y its members, not organized and acting
as \ Legislature. Legislative action is
on. thing, and individual action is an
other. II a bill were voted for in joint
convention by every member Of the two
House, it would still be no law, because
It would not have been passed by the
Legislature. Al Legislative action is
the action OF the two Houses, each act
ing separately, a quorum present, the
House opened and in session, the presid-
ing officer in the Chair.
This equal vote in the senatorial cleo
tons, intended to be retained by the
upper branch Of the Legislature in each
state, was Of the more importance and
significance, because then, in many Of
the States, the basis Of representation
for that branch was not merely the
population Of districts; bat in some, to
some extent, it represented property or
merely extent Of country. The term Of
office Of It's members was In general
longer than thst of members Of the
House, and might even be for life, il the
state laws a. Gt 50 to provide; and its
members might not be elected by uni
versal suffrage, tat by q limited number
q voters, possessed Of particular qualif-
cations.

CITIZENSHIP.

AALALE4N2AAA
II citizens of one State were to be en-
titled to all the rights and privileges Of
citizenship in every other State to which
they might remove, 1t would have been
manifest folly to leave each State free to
make citizens of foreigners at will. 1t
was therefore wisely provided that Con-
gress should have the power to prescribe
uniform rules for naturalization. The
phrase used evidently shows that the
rules 80 TO be prescribed were rules
10 be observed and implicitly Obeyed by
the several States In ~naturali%ipg foreign
ers; and not forms to be adopted by the
General Government ia doing so. II
was certainly not contemplated that any
State would act so insolently or in such
si~nguiarIy bad faith, as to confer the
privilege Of voting foT members OF Con-
gress, or for members of a Legislature
that was to elect Senators in Congress,
or for q Governor who might have to
appoint a Senator, upon foreigners not
.naturalized. While f5reign immigration
was in some respects desirable in a new
country, Of great extent and spersely
settled, it would cease to be desirable
when 1t became excessive andthe ootes of
foreigners were in nOrespe0t TO be coveted.
II it was wise to permit naturalization
at all, it was unwise to leave the whole
subject to the discretion Of Congress, as
profitable capital for demagOgues, with
out imposing any limitations whatever
on the indiseriminate admission to citi-
zenship Of all foreigners whatever. 1t
is strange that 10 danger should have
been apprehended from this quarter.
And it was yet more unwise not to de-
fine the rights to be acquired by natu-
ralization, and distinctly to make known
how far the uaturalized foreigner should
be protected, and, under what circum-
stances, in consequence Of the ceremony
to be prescribed. So little, indeed, is
citizenship OF the United States de-
fined, as that the SIpreme Court has
gravely held that a corporation may be
a citizen Of a State, which Of course
makes il a citizen Of the United States.
Women aud ChiidCsn also are citizens.
The right to vote, therefore, is not q Of
the privileges necessarily belonging 20
citizenship. That is a privilege no.
where conferred on all the citizens Of a
state bat nevertheless, in some States
Of the Union, persons al vote who are
not citizens. To permit that is an alb
surdity, an idiotic folly, that never was
committed any where except in a North
American Stale.

THE JUDICIARY.


The judges OF the Courts Of the United
States were to be appointed by the Presi.
dent, by and with the advice and con.
sent Of the Senate. They were thus 10
bs selected by the States as equals and
they were 70 serve for life, being thus in
no wise dependent on popular caprice or
legislative chicanery for their eontin.
nance in Office. These provisions were
most ~judieious; but unfortunately the
Z Constitution provided only in what
Courts the Judicial powers should be
vested, and in what cases these Courts
should have jurisdiction without direct
ing In what the Supreme Court
should be organized, or limiting the
,umber Of It's judges, which was all the
u,ore important, because it was to have
s-as5iction. Of suits between States. and

OTHER SAFEGUARDS.


As a further restraint upon popular
impulse, and to prevent eneroaehments
on the rights of the States, which would
always be in danger where some were
so powerful and others so small ana
weak, there was given to the President
the Veto power, by which, his consent
being necessary to all bills passed by
Congress, he might refuse that consent;
and in that case the bill vetoed could
become q law only by being again voted
p o and receiving the votes Of two
thirds of each House of Congress.
And finally, if the President could not
thus prevent unconstitutional legisla-
ton, and, If the Supreme Court should
become corrupt and decide that to be 40
breach of the constitutional compact
between the States which maniiestly
was oze, then, as the last resort, ~
e~rtrenlis, the State or States so aggrieved
might ~peaceably sever the connection
between themselves and he others, ana
Withdraw from a Union that nc longer
effected the great objects for which it
was established. 1t Is only by disre-
garding the plainest rules of logic and
construction, that the existence Of this
right can be denied. One party to a
compact cannot break it, without releas-
ing the other party from it. You cannot
make any connexion or contract so in-
dissoluble, as that one party can violate

tion or Union with other States, or so
COMPLETELY merge itself in or cOalesce
with others. as not to retain the right Of
revoking its action, If the terms and
conditions coupled with, and which were
the inducement to, its action, are not
kent. Even a positive stipulation that
this iu-sreuocandi should not exist, would
be void and Of no effect like an immoral
condition. No moral condition supports
such a stipulation.
Yet the horrible interneeine war that
grew out of a peaceable exercise Of this
right, compiled as the act of secession was
with an offer of amity and alliance,
proves that it was unwise, from any con-
sideration whatever, to leave the right
in doubt, or to refrain from expressly
declaring that it was reserved.
