States unoqun nre not kniivn wtlie Constitution; In its oHgtaal lor- So pprfecl equality was secured. I hey were .-ranted the same representation in the Senate, sii(| n the same right to representation in the House of Hcprcscotativcs, the ditforcncc in the latter bo ilregulated only by the ilitlerence in poptj a- 5 Bui every State, however small its popula tion, was secured one representative in that branch. Each State was given the right, and he same right, to participate in the election of President and Vice President, and al alike were secured the benefit of the judicial department. The Constitution, too, was submitted to the peo ple of each State, separately, and adopted by them in that capacity. The Convention which framed it considered, as they were bound to do, each as a supreme sovereign, that could not be subjected to the Constitution except by its own consent. That consent was consequently asked The equality, therefore, of rights was the con dition of the 'original thirteen Stales before the Government was formed, and such equality was not onlv not interfered with, but guaranteed to them, its well in regard to the powers conferred upon the General Government ns to those reserved to tiie States or to the people of tltc States. The same equality is secured to those which have been admitted into Ihc Union since the Constitu tion was udopted. In each iustaneo the State admitted hits been " declared to tie one of the United States, ou an equal footing witli the orig inal Slates in all respects whatever." The Con stitution, too, so fur as most ot tl.e |towers it gate . therefore, of every Slate owes the same allegi- nice to the general government, und is entitled to the same protection. The obligation ot this allegiance It is not within the legal power of his State to annul or evade. It is made paramount ami perpetual, and for that very reason it is equally the paramount duty of the general gov ernment to allow to the citizens of each Statu' the rights secured to them, nod the protection necessary to their full enjoyment. A citizen can no doubt forfeit such rights by committing a 'vlcflim. crime against Ute United Slates, upon: convl tiuru bylaw, anje- fir Utah- turn was put Mown ny menus or turn power, Hint being tlm only bm? eoiiferred' tipbn Congress to Unit end, that proposition is the otic on Width Mono It can ho pretended tlm Southern Staton rit-e not in tlni .Union now ns well ns nt first. Tho idea tlmt lho war power, ns such, Ims beert used, or could have 'Iton-usdi!, to extinguish tho rebellion Is, in the Judgmcnt'or the tlndcislgffcj, utterly without foundation. That power wiis given for a diilenmt contingency—for tlio contin gency of ncoqliict with other governments; an international ConftioV ll'it fliUl 'bqpu .thought that that power was 16 Wrosorteil toUisuppiVls a dmuestic strife; tlici words appropriate to flint end would have been used, lint so far from this having been done, ip the same section that con fers It tin express provision'Is inserted, to .rnept tho exigency of a domestic strife or Insurrection. Whether fri tho progress of the effort to suppress art Insurrection, tho rights incident to war us bc- tweou the United States autl foreign nations may not nriso, is a question which lit no way choughs tho character of the contest us between the gov ernment arid (he Insurrection. Tho cxerciso of such rights ni.iy lie found convenient, or become necessary to the suppression oftlio rebellion, but tho character of tho'chrifllct lft in no wny chong- etl by n retort tb tltom. Tlmt remhln&na It wjts at first,' and must, from its vory nature, duriug its continuanto, remain a more contest in which tho government seeks, aptl enn only seek, to put ap end to the rebellion. That nchloved, the original condition of things Is n( onco : restored. T wo judidnl decisions . havo been made by judges'of cmlncfit nblllty and unquestioned loy- nlty, which hilly sustain our view. In ono, that of tltc Amy Wnrbick, -before tliw United States rights which it was conceded belonged to the government during the rebellion, in giving It wlton suppressed, the rights of conquest declar- liMbrtn suhtioia that t Ihl 'iJv6rt?mfcfA have the right of a belligerent then, after the re- bolllon is suppressed -it will have tho rights of conquest, and tlmt a State and its inhabitants may b6 permanently 'divested of itll ftolitfcal ad vantages and, treated as foreign territory con- ucrcd by arms. This is an error, u grave mlted -sovereign Tights; but no nation over makes such a conquest of its own territory, If a liostlloPowcr, however, trom Without dr wjlli- In, takes and holds possession and dominion over any portion of its, territory, and tho nation by force of arms expels or overthrows the .enemy nml suppresses hostilities, it acquires no new title, and merely regains possession of that of which it has been temporarily deprived, Tito nation acquires no new. sovereignty, hut simply maintains Its previous rights: When the United States bikes possession of n'tobcl district they merely vindicate their pre-existing title. Under despotic governments tho' confiscation may Ite unliurilteiU tail uhd6rbur;g6vernMnt t)ic right of sovereignty over any portion ol a, State is given nud limited by the OonsUtntion, and will be the same after,the wnr as It wit9 ! bcl6ro" In the other, the application for the. habeas corpus to Mr. .lustfco Nelson, onoof tlm Judges of the Supremo. Court of thu United States.; by James Egan, to be discharged from ah imprison ment to which be Itnd Itccu sentenced by a miii- btrg commission in South Carolina, for the of fense of murder, alleged to have been commit ted in tliiU'State, the discharge was ordered, and in nn opinion evidently carefully prepared among other tilings tltc Judge Said “For nil tlmt appears, the civil, luodi courts of the Sbtle of South Carolina were in the foil ex ercise of their judicial functions nt tltc time of tltis trial as restored by the suppression of the re bellion, some seven months previously, nnil.by tile revival of tltc laws nud the rcorgnnizntioti ol the Suite government in obedience to nud iu con formity .with Its coiistltui' oral Union, i ludqpl, visional government President, of the attain,-where aueu toriuiti mlenily passed, is umilu a part of (lie pun meat. But a State cannot, in its corporate cn- pneity, lie made liable to sucli a torloliure; for a State", as such, under the Constitution, ciumot commit or be imlictcd for a crime. No legal proceedings, civil nr criiuinnl, can Ite instituted to deprive a State of the benefits of tltc Consti tution, bv forfeiting nsngninSt Iter any of the rigltU it secured to her. Her citizens, be they few nr many, may be proceeded against under the law and convicted; but the State remnitui a Stale of the Union. To concede that by the Il legal conduct of tier own citizens she can be withdrawn from the Union, is virtually to con cede the rigid of secession; for what difference does it make, as regards tltc result, whether a State can rightfully secede (a doctrine maintain ed bv statesmen North as well ns South) or whether by the illegal conduct of her citizens she ceases to Ite a Stale of the Union. In either case the end is the same; tlm only difference Is that by the one theory she cciutcs Ity law to bo a Slate of the Union, und by the oilier by crime, without and against law. Hut the doctrine is wholly erroneous. A Stale once, in the Uniou, must abide in it forever. She can never with draw from nr lie expelled from it. A UiHcrent principle would subject the Union to dissolution at any moment, it is, therefore, alike |tcrilous and unsound. Nor do we see tlmt it litis any support in the measures recommended by the majority of the committee. Tito insurrectionary Suites are by these measures conceded to lie States of tltc Union. The proposed constitutional amendment Is to Ite submitted to them ns well as the oilier Buttes. In those respects cocli Is placed on the same ground. To consult n State not in the Union on the propriety of adopting a constitutional amendment to tha government of the Union, und which is necessarily to ailed those States only comprising Ute Union, would tie an absurdity; and to allow such nn amend ment, as States in the Union might desire, to be defeated by the votes of 8tatcs not in the Union, would lie nliko nonsensical and unjust. The very measure, therefore, of submitting to all the States forming the Union before the Insur rection a constitutional amendment makes the Inquiry whether all at this timo are In or out of Ute Union a vital ono. If they nre not, all should not be consulted. It they tire, they should be, and should lie uuly because lltuy are.. Tito very fact, therefore, of sudt a submission concedes that the Southern States are and never reused to [* Mutes of tlte Union.

Tlte undersigned deom. lt unnecessary to examine the question further. They leave U upon thu oltservauonsnb- mlted, considering 1? perfectly clear tlmt 'Shitcs, tltc relations of the 8tal_ Hie General Government. On tho contrary, tlicy are to all iutenis and pur|t<wo9 as completely States of the Union as they ever were, und In turtlier support of Uti* proposition, If it needed any, we confidently appeal to tho fact tlmt tlje very immure recommended a Constitutional amendment to lie submitted lo such States, turn- wltiasticji support. For, looking to and regnrd- ingtlu: riglits ot tho other Stales, sucli a subtnls- ajon leu no warrant or fonndiuiou except upon tas.hypathtaU tlmt they nro its nlwohiioly Slates ol the Uniou as any of tho other Stales. It can never tv, under any circumstances, n " profllless • ,,1, led by umfuttvy'orfoe'TfnfteU States (am iSteffwfli tinder niurtinl law .constUufcd- the only rule of action,) for tltc sitecial purpose of changing Ute existing stole of tilings nud restoring clvjt gov ernment over tho people. In operation, of tills appointment a new Constitution wor formed, a Governor and Legislature elected under it, and tlte Stale placed in the full enfoyment or entitled to tlte full enjoymspt of all Iter constitutional rights and privileges. Ti.o constitutional laws of thu Union were thereby enjoyed nml obeyed, nnd wore ns binding and authoritative over tlte pcoplo nr tlte State us in any other portion oftlio country. Indeed, tlte moment the rebellion was suppressed and foe government growing out of it subverted, the ancient laws resumed' tlieir ac customed sway, subject only to tho now reorgan ization by tlte appointment of tho appropriate of ficer to givo them operation nnd effect. Tltis re organization nnd appointment of public ftinc- tionnrlcs, which was tinder tlte superintendence and direction of tltc President, ns commander- in-chief of Ute army and navy of tlte country, nnd who, os such, lmd previously governed -the Suite from imperative necessity Ity the forco of martial law, lmd already taken pinco, nnd tho np- cessttv no longer existed." Tltis opinion Is foe. more authoritative titan It might otherwise possibly be esteemed from its being the tint elnlxtrnlc statement of tho reasons whlcl) governed tho majority of tl|« Supreme Court at foe Inst term in their judgment of the case of Milligan and others, for tho division tlmt military commissions for tlte trial of civilians nre not constitutional. We submit (lint nothing can be more conclusive in favor of the doctrine for whicb they are cited than these judgments. In tlte one tho proposition of conquest of a Stale under a war lo suppress nn insurrection is not only repudiated by Judge Sprague, but because of the nature of our government it is considered to be legally impossible. “The right of sover eignty over auy portion of a State” will, lie tolls us, "only be tlte same after the war as it was lie- fore." In tho oilier we are told tlmt "the sup pression of the rebellion" restores tho rights of tho Slate, aud tlmt when her government is re organized site is at once in tlte lull enjoyment or entitled to tlte full enjoymont of all her constitu tional rights and privileges. Again, n contrary doctrine is Inconsistent with the obligation which Ute government.Is under to eacii citizen ot a State. Protection to each is part ot Hint obligation; protection not only ns against a foreign, but a domestic foe. To bold tlmt it is iu Ute power ot any part of tho |tcoplo of a State, whether they constitute a majority or a minority, ity engaging in insurrection nml adopting auy measure in Its prosecution to make citizens who are not engaged ill II, but nro op posed lo it, enemies of the United Stales, Itnving no right to tlte protection which Ute constitution affords to citizens wlm are true to tlieir allegi ance, Is ns illegal ns it Is flagrantly unjiist., Du ring the conflict tho exigency limy.
