had no hesitation in avowing that if we could
escape the payment Of any part of the public
debt in constitutional way we should do it.
Speaking Of the plea that to depreclate the
bonds was to bring ruin on the State, he de-
clared that he had quite different idea
about that. Virginia was not in the market
to borrow money, and it did not make any
difference whether the bonds were worth %
or 100 cents in the dollar. They were nearly
all held outside of the State--in tue hands Of
ptiless spectators, who had better suffer
little than to be allowed to force the people
of this Commonwealth to be sold out Of
houses and homes to satisfy their memorable
demands. " q
Mr.. ANDERSON, Of Rockbridge, said that he
was one of the members of the last General
Assembly who had voted for the funding
bill, 1t was, as he believed then and now,
an act of good policy and patriotism, while
the attempt to undo it was an act OF mad
ness and reputation. He cOntended that
the resolution, If passed, was virtual repeal
and perpetual suspension Of the operations
| of that law in so far as it had not been
already executed. He read from the 10Th
section of the Sd article Of the Constitution
that "no law shall embrace more than one
| object, arhich SHAH be expressed IN ITS tue;
nor shall any law berevised oramended with
reference to its title" &c, and argued that
this resolution fell directly under that head,
inasmuch as its true purpose was con-
cealed. For his constituency, which had
suffered excessively from war and the recent
terrible disasters caused by the great flood;
he could say that this very issue had been
made in the late canvass, and the popular and
able gentlemen who had borne the standard
of the so-called "Relief party" had been de-
feated. If any people had right to CON-
plain of the onerous burden of taxation, the
people Of Rockbridge had yet they preferred
to bear their burdens, to seeing Virginia's

Martial Law In Time OF Peace.

The Presidents declaration OF war on
the people of the mountain region OF
South Carolina is ridiculously solemn and
lugubriously iocose. In one proclamation
he orders the imaginary rebels to disperse
and give up their arms. They did not
disperse because they had never assem-
bled. They did not give up their arms,
because they bad none. Therefore, be-
cause they could not undo what they had
never had, they must be deprived of al
most the only thing ofvalue TO them, their
political and legal independence, or what
is its representative, the right to the writ
of habeas corpus. It is the boast of
Britons and their descendants that no one
shall be deprived of his liberty without the
right of an immediate inquiry before a
competent court as to the snfficiency of
the cause and authority of his detention
The personal liberty of the citizen is a
constitutional right, nor can that liberty
be rightfully taken away or legally for
feited otherwise than by some serious
crime. Hence there can be no legal COM
mitment of person accused unless the
cause is sufficient and set forth in the
charge. It must always be left within the
power of the court to inquire into the ex-
istence and sufficiency of the alleged cause
of arrest and detention. Hence, wherever
the subject or citizen is entitled to this
writ he cannot be hastily or wantonly de-
prived of his liberty. This is the most
valued of all the rights of Britons or Amer

rights civic whatsoever. In the time of
war, in the immediate field of military
operations, and for obvious reasons, the
sovereign power being represented by the
armed agent of the sovereign, the p1ivi-
leges of the writ are sometimes suspended,
but never unless authorized by law.
