Jwdge MepkMi’ Letter.
We need not in-rite the attention of
onr readers to the important communi
cation of this distinguished gentleman,
tor it will be attentively perused by all.
It it addressed to onr neighbor, the Era,
in reply to its strictures upon the article
of our correspondent “S,” on the sub
ject of electing e suoceesor to Oov._ Bui-
look, and the assumption of the Era, that
Judge Stephens was the author of that
communication. Judge Stephens has
kindly furnished us with a copy of his
letter to the Era, that it may appear in
Toe Sun at the samo time, as the subject
is one of special importance, and a eon
tinuanoe of the discussion begun in our
oolumna.
This letter, like everything from ite
distinguished author, is clear, able and
exhaustive of tho subject-matter. It is
so direct and conclusive, that we do not
see how the oditor of tho Era can attempt
even to dodge it; and he oertainly can
not esoepe the crushing force of the un
answerable argument.
Our neighbor fell into quite an error in
attributing the authorship of the article,
by our correspondent “ S,” to Judge Ste
phens, whioh article it attempted to reply
to, but in the attempt made a signal fail-
asm, as it will, if it attempts a reply to
Judge Stephens, for Ms truth is ogaiust the
Era's view of it

The Gubernatorial Vacancy.
Sfaxta, 7th November, 1871.
Ta the Atlanta 1few Era i
la an editorial of the 4th iusk, com
menting on an article signed " 8.,” whioh
appeared in Tun Sun a few deys ego, on
the subject of especial election to fill the
present vacancy in the office of Governor,
you allude to me in a way whioh entitles
me to a reply through your columns.
Yon hold mo forth to the public as the
author of the article, and at the same
tune characterise it as diaoourteous, un
worthy of my talents, and inconsistent
with my well known principles.
If the article to indeed unworthy of
my talents, and inconsistent with my
well known principles, then its own in
ternal evidence ought to have preserved
you from the discourtesy of imputing it
to me. Thiajtnterns! evidence, surely,
was not overcome by any credible exter
nal evidence; for, in point of fact,
am ikN the author of tha article
in question, nor did I ever see it,
or heer of it, until I saw it in Tux Sun
newspaper. Do you think you are quite
■a careful to refrain from discourtesy as
you are prompt to oomplein of it f Or,
are the “rules of disputation known end
reeognined among gentlemen of eduoo-
toon,” -tooaetraad" by you ee a restraint
upon others, bate lioenai to yourself,
yon to hull chargee of dto-
peraonalin
consistency, not only without evidenoe,
but against svtdenn, and against tho
troth of tho asset Do not understand
me, howevar, at dissenting from either
the conelutioe or the reasoning of “ft 1
At to the epithet of “stupid,'' which was
applied to yen, it was amply aupafta-
ana. After the cogent and eenvfncing
argument of “8.," it might safely have
been left the publjo to apply the proper
epithet to yours.
I must ask tome additional Bpsce in
reply tp your oommenta oh my views of
‘/ftript- construMioo.'' And, first of all,
in discussing a con-
n, appeal to my princi-
oouatrucUon," rather than
question, a]
uJpBt "strict oouatrui
to your own party's principle of most
latitudinarian ” construction I—so
“ latitudinarian" as to have got
entirely “outside" of ell the Consti
tutions, Federal and State, and overrid
den them all with the bayonet during
more l) an four years of profound peace?
The public will be apt to believe that you
have abandoned your party’s favorite
principle of construction, only because it
would serve your present party neces
sity. You are most weloome, however,
to all possible benefit, whioh you can
legitimately derive from the rule at con
struction held by the constitutional
school to which I belong. All I ask to
that you shall abide by it, after having
appealed to it, and that yon shall have it
oorrecliy Mated.
It ia a great mistake to suppose, as
your reasoning assumes, that the doe-
trine of “strict construction” has an
universal application to ail parts of a
constitution, without regard to the char
acter or subject-matter of the different
parts. It is oonfiDed to such parts as
confer powers to be exercised an the peo
ple, and is not at all applicable to such
parts as provide machinery for the exer-
oise of powers, by the people. These
latter are purely remedial in their nature,
and, like all purely remedial laws,
should bo so ooustrued as to ad
vance the remedy. Here the rulo of
ooustructiou is liberal, and, if you please,
'latitudinarian,” stretching tho remedy
even beyond the scopo of the words,
when tho object in view, or tho reason
of the provision, would otherwise fail.
Now all those ports of our State Con
stitution whioh relate ta the elections of
Governor, quadrennial and special, ore
remedial, and should be so construed, as
ia facilitate the people in the exercise of
the elective franchise, rather than to de
bar them from it. Ia tho remedial parts
of the fundamental law, fnrnishiDg rem
edies, or machinery for enabling or fa
cilitating the people in the exerciso of
rights and powers, all parties have, in
tho main, agreed as to the rulo of con
struction. Thoso who have been known
as “latitudinarianB," bate insisted that
this same rule of liberal construction
should bo applied alike to all ports of the
fundamental Jaw, while the strict con-
structionists have manfully struggled to
keep it confined to the remedial parts,
insisting that all powers, which arc to be
exercised on the people, shall ho rigidly
limited by tho scopo of the words em
ployed toilescribo them. It is, howover,
an enormous mistake to suppose, os
your reasoning again assumes, that
the rule of “strict construction ” holds
these powers to be limited by nothing
but the words, and to be always and nec
essarily co-extcusivu with the full scopo of
tho words.
On the contrary, the strict construc
tionists, wbilo insisting that tho words
shall ulways constitute ru absolute limit
upon tire power, yet agree with the “lat-
itudinarians ” that the words themselves
are to bo restrained and controlled, and
tho power limited l>y several other things:
For instance, by the particular subject-
matter about which the words arc used;
by the consequences to which tho full ef
fect of tho words would lead ; and liy tho
general object in rim; or, in other words,
by tho reason or spirit of the provision ;
it boing a universal rulo of construction,
applicable alike to all laws, ortmiual and
olvil, constitutional and statutory, that
the mero words shall never carry the law
beyond the objeot or reason for which it
was made, when that object or reason is
satisfactorily ascertained by any means
whatever. “ Cessanle ratione legis, cessat
Ur,"
Tho doctrino of strict ooustructiou, os
applicable to oonstitutions, has a perfect
illustration and elucidation, in the same
doctrine as it to applied to, and univer
sally understood in, criminal law. Crim
inal statutes are never to be extended be
yond tbe scope if the tcords, however plain
may be tho object, or rooson of tho law ; or
however absurd may be tho oousequeuoes
of stopping at that boundary, Aud just
bore is found tho rule of strict construe
tion.
Thus the statute of Bolognn, mention
ed by lllackstonc, enacted t -at “whoev
er drew blood in tho streets should be
puuished with tho utmost severity.”—
This law could not ho applied to the
most wanton murderer who might kill
his victim in the streets, if tho killing
should bo douo by strangulation, not
drawing any blooil; for tho tponls do not
oover such a cose, although tho case is
quite ns bad as if blood wore drawn in
tho killing, and is os clearly witbiu the
reason of tho tow. Bat it is equally true
that howover clearly a case may bo covered
by the words of a criminal law, yet tho
words will be restrained and limited to
the object in view, or by any absurd con
sequence whioh would follow from their
unrestricted natural force. And just
hare coatee in the rale of liberal construc
tion. Thru, the words of this same Bo
logna law clearly covered the ease of a
surgeon who bled a man in the streets to
relieve him from a fainting fit; but it
was held to be not applicable to that oaae,
because the infliction of death fora truly
benevolent action would be absurd—I
will not offend you by saying “stupid.”
The sum of the matter is, tho consti
tutional school, to which I belong, holds
that oonxtituSona are to be construed
striotly, or liberally, as the one construc
tion or tha other will operate in favor of
public liberty, just as criminal laws are
to be oonatnad, strictly or liberally, aa
tha ana oonatruotion or the other will op
erate In favor of personal liberty.
Your argument to that a special elec
tion, to fill the praaant vacancy in tha
office of Governor, finds an insurmount
able obstacle in tha one word “Bvxnr,
which oooun in parapraph II, section I,
article IV, of tha Constitution, directing
that the returns for “Eyeby” election of
Governor shell be laid before the Senate,
the day after the organization of the two
Houses. That day to already passed,
and your ooudusion is that, Oterefore, tho
election of a new Governor cannot be
now declared, nor tho Governor qualified
on tbe day prescribed by the Constitu
tion—not even under a special election—
which, according to the expreaa terms of
asubsequoot part of the Constitution,
may be provided for by statute; the statute,
of conrse, regulating tho whole matter,
returns and alt. Your one great word
'Evany, ” occurs where tho Constitution
is providing for the regular, quadrennial
election. Judge Blackstone says “words
are always to be understood as having a
regard to the subject-matter, for that is
always supposed to be in the eye of the
legislator, end all his expressions direct
ed to that end." The subject-matter is
tbe regular quadrennial election, and all
the words, including this tremendous
word “Eveby,” must be considered as
‘directed to that end,” and limited to it.
Tho subjeot-matter of a subsequent part,
is special provision for vacancies, the
Constitution itself providing that the
Execntive powers shall be exercised by
other officers during the vaeanoy; but
leaving the Legislature to provide by law
how the vacancy shall be filled, and so
ended. The Constitution itself makes
complete provision for the regular quad
rennial elections, but makes no provision
for the special elections, only empower
ing tbe Legislature to make it—to make
it complete ia all respects. Is a
single word in one part of the Conatitu-
tioimiatiug to ouo subject-matter, to de
stroy tho unlimited power which is
given to the Legislature in another part,
in relation to tbe different subject-mat
ter ? One part of the Constitution pro
viiles that the Governor shall hold his
office during the term of four years.—
Does this apply to a Governor who comes
in to fill an unexpired term ? Does it
apply to your so-called Governor Conley,
who is exercising the Executive powers
ex-officio, without having any office by vir
tue of which to exercise the powers qf an
other office f Is this general provision
violated by the removal of a Governor
on Impeachment, under a special provis
ion in another part of tbe Constitution ?
Such are the absurdities into which you
aro betrayed by attempting to use the
doctrine of “etrict construction," with
out understanding what it is, or even
professing a belief in its soundness.
The precedents which you cite in the
cases of Qovernor Rabun and others, can
have no possible application under our
present Constitution; for tho simple rea
son that the Constitution under which
they occurred did not empower the Leg
islature to provide by law for filling va
cancies in the offioe of Governor by spe
cial election. This feature appears in
our constitutional history, for the first
time, in tho Constitution of 1868. The
precedents occurred when the Governor
was electod by the Legislature, and not
by the people. Linton Stephens.
