The Charleston Evening News says that
“the venerable widow of the immortal Cal

after so much delay, that the stockholders

their part towards forwarding the work.—
The resolution which passed unanimously in
6vor of the County Aid plan, is a step to
the right direction, and if carried out will
enable the county to stand op to its former
pledges to the company, without the least
difficulty oa bnrdSlo any one. Indeed, the
County Aid plain of taking stock in a Rail
road, we look upon as the true and proper
cue forali counties that desire a Railroad.
We understand from the officers of this
company in this city, that a eonveution cf
the stockholders will immediately be called,
and at which Convention we see no reason to
doubt that perfect harmony of action will
prevail in its councils. Wo hold with the
Franklin county people, that the time has

be settled by the President and Directors."

The Power of Bank Monopolies—Bank
Power.
Power, only in the bands of ths just and
generous can be relied upon to protect ths
interests of commerce, of agriculture, ot
the mechanic arts, and of personal rights.
Monied power is as much to be dreaded in
the-States of this Union, particularly in the
shape of Bank ts- nopolies, an is, political
power in the bands of ambition* dema
gogues bent only upon their own personal
advaserment. To bank power, almost
without an effort the people yield, as did
their representatives in the last Legislature

When upon motion, a committee often
was appointed to report matter for tho ac"

Whereas, the subject of tho Airline Rail

command onr warmest and most cordial sup.
port, that we ora willing to mako any reu,

when we look at ound us 'and'see-thsembao-

that a large number of onr stockholders,
cannot pay tho instalments tin their stock
without a sacrifice- of-tbeir prop, rty, and
believing as wo do, that it would be the
part of wisdom to Ece the prospect of the

Be it therefore resol.rd. That in order to

the President and Directors proceed as early

action of the Federal Government] but by
its every day practice. Treason to an offense
committed against the political sover
eignty of the government. Where is alle
giance due by the" citizens, to the Federal
Government, or to the United Stales? Tbe
obvious answer would be, that allegiance is
due wlierevor the sovereignty resides. The
constitution declares that troasau shall con
sist, in lovying war against tbo-UaUed.
Stales, ur in adhering to their enemies, giv
ing aid and comfort and not in levying war
against tho Federal Government. Tho Aot
of 1790 punishing treason, declares, 'that if
any person owing ullegiouce to the United
States of; America, shall levy war against
them, or khall adhere to ihclr enemies, giv
ing them aid and comfort, &o., shall be
guilty of treason against the United States.

Court i sites, not in the name of the Presi
dent of the Federal Government, but in the
name,of tbe President of the United States.
Whoever heard a mandate, or an order is-
sned by, or to on officer of the Army, or
Navy, in tbe name of the Federal Govern
ment? Such orders always issue in the

both civil, and or mir.nlproeels, issuing from
tho Courts, in tho name of the U. States,
where too sovereignly resides. The flag
of tho Union, the emblem of sovereignty, was
designed, not with one star representing tbe
Federal Government, but with thirteen stars
representing the sovereignty of tlio thirteen
United States-ond wherovor that Dug fl at i
on the land, or the sea, it to an emblem Of
the sovereignty oftbi United State).
-When that Dag was raised upon the ter

Those most familiar with bank operations
in tbe paat, have warned tbe people
against it. When, in 1832, Nicholas
Biddle, famous aa a financier, and as Presi
dent of the o!d United State]. Bank, was
called before a Committee of the Sense of
Representatives, of the (. regress of tbe
"United 8talei, ted was questioned with
reference to a paper circiistioa, so as to
prevent injuriom effects upon trade and ag
riculloro, be tain:—
“What is wanted it this! First, to widen
the bails of tbe metallic circulation by
abolishing the use of small note) s > as to
allow coin to take tbe place of them, aa
inevitably wonld; and wcond, to annex to
(fee non-payment of specie by tbe banks,
so bear/ • penalty, say an intorett of
twelve per e*nf, as ia the Bank of the U

tbe New England baokej or* forfeiture

that territory, it must be done in a lawful
manner, aud under tho authority cf the fl
ailed states. The inhabitants ol" Kansas
have it is understood, token tho inintory
steps to provide a government for thent-
icln-s, by calling a convention to frame a
constitotion for thoir government as an in
dependent State, to assort their political
sovereignty in subordination to tho laws
and authority of the United States. This
they bad the undoubted right to do under
the act organising that territory, which d:-
dares, that the people thereof shall be
‘ perfectly Iree to form and regulate their
domestic institutions in their own way, sub
ject only to tho Constitution of the United
Slates.
Tho question of slavory it is understood is
or was to be submitted to the people, by the
convention for their ratification or rejection.
There was no more nccofslty for submitting
that question to the people under the or
ganic act, than any other question, bat the.
convention having submitted it, I shall not
complain, whatever the result may be, so
fair play (hail bo allowed ; it has bcendono
in their own way, nnd if they "had refused to
have submitted that question to the people,
in tbeii
such refuial, wonld buve been done in their
own way alio, and nobody outside of tbe
territory, would liava had any jnst cause of
complaint. Whether the constitution
which tho people of Kansas shall adopt and
send up to Congrcs, undor tbe authority of
the United Slates, shall tolerate or prohibit
slavery, is not tho qaestion (the question if,
whether the expressed will of toe people of
that territory in convention assemnlea, un
der the authority.of the United States, shall
ha respected, and carried out in good faith
