The difficulty which pervades all the
States, but for illustration is confined to the
case OF Governor Holden, of North Caro-.
lima appears to be that under the laws Of
Congress Governor Holden can not
qualify as Governor; but when the Legisla-
ture organizes and adopts the fourteenth
article of the Constitution Governor
Holden can qualify, the Constitu'
tional amendment not having been
promulgated, and the State of
North Carolina having equal rights with
Ohio or New York. The subsequent pro.
mitigation of the fourteenth article can not
disturb Governor Holden or other persons
similarly in office. To do that it would
have to act upon things already done, and
be eE post facto. The logicians Of the Sen
ate are perpleXed.
