TO DEFEAT HIS POLICY.
Worcesteb, September 14, 18G5.
The Massachusetts Republican State Con
vention assembled here to day and is largely
attended.
The Convention permaijtly organized by
electing Charles Sumner president, and two
vice presidents from each Congressional dis
trict, and a large number from tbe State at
largo. Among the latter is Major General
Benjamin F. Butler.
The several committees ou tesolutions,
finance, &c., were appointed.
SENATOR SUMNERS SPEECH.
Senator Sumner, on taking the chair, de
livered a long, prepared and printed speech,
commencing at the very outset by denounc
ing the policy of the administration, declar
ing that tbe ship of State was drifting upon
the lee shore, and that apologies or round
about phrases were out ot place when danger
threatens. The following are extracts from
his speech :
EMANCIPATION NOT COMPLETE SO LONG AS THE
BLACK CODE EXISTS.
When last I addressed my fellow citizens
on public affairs, at the close of the late
Presidential election, as we were about to
vote for Abraham Liucoln and Andrew John
son, I undertook to show the absolute iden
tity between slavery and the rebellion, so
that one could not end without the other. As
I finished that address I said to ti lends near
me, that it was ‘my last anti-slavery speech.’
X so thought at the time ; for I anticipated
the speedy downfall of the rebellion, carry
ing with it slavery. I was mistaken. Neither
the rebellion nor slavery is yet ended. The
rebellion has been disarmed : but that is all.
Slavery has been abolished in name; but that
is all. As there is still a quasi rebellion so is
there still a quasi slavery. The work ot
i- liberation is not yet completed. Nor can it
l be completed. Nor can it be completed until
the equal rights of every person once claimed
as a slave are placed under the saleguard of
hyeversible guarantees. It is not enough to
strike down tbe master ; you must also lift
uu-tiie slave. It is not enough to declare
that slavery is abolished The whole black
code which is the supplement of slavery,
must give place to that equality before tue
law which is ibe very essence ot liberty. It
is an old principle of the common law, re
cognized by all our courts, as announced by
Lord Coke, that “where the law grantelh
anything to any one, that also is gianted
without which the thing itself cannot he. So
also where A piece of laud is granted, which
is shut in by the possessions ot the grautoi, a
right of way is implied from common justice
and the necessity of tbe Lntiiallis
done in every particulai and beyond possi
bility of question, it is in vain to say that
emancipation has been secured. The good
work is only half doue. It must he contmued
to its assured consummation. He dwell to
some extent on Russian emancipation, and
then turned to the
PU'l v OF MASSACHUSETTS.
In asking that we shall do likewise, I fol
low the plain suggestions of reason, whether
we regard the interest of the lreedman or our
own. But justice to the freedinan is now
intimately linked with the national security'.
Be just and the republic will be strong. Be
just and you will erect a barrier against the
rebellion. On this question Massachusetts
has a duty to perform. Now, as m times
past, her place is in the front, ion will not,
i trust, be disturbed by criticism, even if it
become invective. Throughout the long
conflict with slavery and the earlier conflict
with the mother country, Massachusetts has
become accustomed to hard words, find,
even at a more ancient day, as lar bacU in
coloniel history as 1691, we find an ill tem
pered critic, with a strange iumb e ot
metaphors, crying out against our tatneis,
“All the frame of heaven moves upon one
axis, and the whole of New England interest
seems designed to be loaden on one bottom
and her particular motion to be concentric
to the Massachusetts tropic. You know
who are wont to trot after the hay horse.
If others trot after the bay horse, it is simp
ly because Massachusetts means always to
keep on the right road, and, by unerring in
stinct, knows the way. Error proceeds
oftener from ignorance than from malice.
Obviously, at this moment, the great Ulffl
culty is that people do not see clearly what
ought to be done. .
From this he passed on to national secuii
to, then gave an exposition according to the
radical creed of
NATIONAL FAITH.
There is another object, kindred to securi
-ty, or, perhaps, embraced in security ; and
that is the national faith. This, too, must
be placed beyoud cavil, or even “suspicion.”
No nation cau be powerful enough to disre
gard this sacred bond. Character, fame and
prosperity itself are all dependent npon its
observance. But the national faith is solemn
ly engaged, first to the national freedmen,
and secondly, to the national creditors. No
undertaking can be more complete and in
violable, because it constituted the considera
tion for those services and supplies by which
the life of the republic has been preserved.
The national faith is pledged to the national
freedmen, not only by the act of emancipa
tion, which, in its very essence and from the
very nature of the case, is a “warranty of
title ” but also by the plain and posiiive
promises of the proclamation, that “the
executive government of the U nited States,
including the military and naval authority
thereof, will recognize and maintain the free
dom of such persons.” Words could not be
more binding, and the history of tMr intro
duction testifies to their significance and
efficacy. ‘ ’ 1
They were not in the original draft by Pre
aident Lincoln, but were inserted at the sug
gestion ol Mr. Seward, when the proclama
tion was read to the Cabinet; acd there they
stand without any limitation of place or time,
binding this republic in its national character,
through its Executive, including the military
and naval authority, not only to recogDizc, but
to maintain the freedom of the emancipated
slave; and this is to be done, not in any
special locality, but everywhere, and not tor a
day or a year, but for all time. Our obliga
tion to the national creditors is of the same
validity, approved by successive acts of Con
gress, ratified by tbe popular will, and fixed
beyond recall by the actual enjoyment of
those precious huits for which the debt was
incurred. Repudiation of our bonds, whether
to the national creditors or to tbe national
treeumen would be a home and a crime ;
and the national faith is irrevocably plighted
to the two alike. Here is the proclamation
and here is the Treasury note. Look at the
signatures and look at the terms. Tbe former
is signed by the President himself, Abraham
Lincoln ; the latter is signed by an unknown
clerk, whose name I cannot decipher. The
former is stronger and more positive in its
terms than tbe latter. Tbe Treasury note
simply says that it is “ redeemable after a
certain date,” and that “this debt is author
ized by act of Congress. ” The binding terms
ot the proclamation, which I have already
read, are solemnly enforced by that memor
able invocation at the close: “And upon
this act, sincerely believed to beau act
of justice warranted by tbe constititution
upon military necessity, I invoke the consi
derate judgment of mankind and tbe gracious
favor of Almighty God,” Thus religion
comes to confirm the pledge with sanctions
of its own. That pledge is as enduring as
the republicitself.
Passing from this poiut he dwelt a short
time on tbe dikes of Holland, dikes in general,
the condition oft be rebel States —in which lie
gave tiie position ot affairs just as the rebel
armies were surrendering—and ignored re
cent developments; charged tbe South with
a determination to repudiate the national
debt, accompanied with an argument against
the assumption of the rebel debt. Then came
a chapter on guarantees of all kinds, then
laid down what may be termed the real creed
of his radical Jacobin faction, under the
head of
WAVS TO OBTAIN GUARANTIES.
He asserted that time is necessary. There
•must be no precipitation. 'Hrae is the gent
lest, but most powerful, revolutionist. Time
is the surest reformer. Time is a peacema
ker. Time is necessary to growth, and it is
an element of change. For thirty years and
more this wickedness was maturing. Who
can say that the same time will not be need
ed now to mature the conditions of perma
nent peace ? Who can say that a generation
must not elapse before these rebel communi
ties have been so far changed as to become
sate associates in a common government ?
Plainly, this cannot be done at one. Wel
lington exclaimed, “Would that night or
Blucher had come!” Time alone was a sub
stitute for a powerful ally. It was more
through time than battle that La Vendee was
changed into loyalty. Time, therefore, we
must have. Through time all other guaran
tees may be obtained ; but time itself is a
guarantee.
PRESENT EXCLUSION OF REBELS FROM POLITI
CAL POWER.
Meantime we must follow Congress in the
present exclusion of all rebels from political
power. They must not be voted for and
they must not vote. On this principle I take
my stand. Let them buy and sell, let them
till tlse giound—and may they be industrious
and successful. These things they may do;
but they must not be admitted at once into
the co-partnership ot our government. As
well might tbe respectable Mr. Ketchum re
instate his son at once in the firm which he
lms betrayed, and invest him again with all
the powers of co-partner. The father re
ceived his son with parental affection, and
forgave him, but he did not invite the crimi
nal to resume his former desk in Wall street.
And yet Edward Ketchum, who had robbed
and forged on uu unprecedented scale, is as
worthy of trust in the old banking bouse ai
our rebels in tbe government of the country,
long probation will be needed before either
can be admitted to his former fellowship.—
The state of outlawry is the present condi
tion of each, and this condition must not be
hastily relaxed. Congress has already set
the example by excluding from “any office
of honor or profit under the government of
United States,” and also by excluding as
counsellor at law, from any court of the
United states, every person who has given
“aid or countenance” to the rebellion, or
who has “sought or accepted any office
whatever” under it, or who has yielded to it
any “voluntary support." This exclusion,
thus sanctioned by Congress, must be the
pole-star of our national policy.
If rebels cannot be officers under our gov
ernment, they ought not to be voters. They
should be politically disfranchised, purely
and simply as a measure of self-defence,
and in order to prepare the way tor those
guarantees which w'e seek. “Vipers cannot
use their venom in the cold.” These are
words of political wisdom as well as of
scientific truth, and a great Italian writer did
not hesitate to inculcate from them the same
lesson that Ido now. Still further, in ob
taining guarantees we must look confidently
to Congress, which has plenary powers over
the whole subject. Congress can do every
thing needful. It has already begun by ex
cluding rebels from office. It must con
tinue its jurisdiction ; whether, through the
war powers, or the duty to guarantee *t re
publican form of government, or the neces
sity of the case, as in territories, as a matter
of little importance. It is of less importance
under which of its powers this is done, than
that it is done. Contineing its jurisdiction,
Congress musts upervise aud fix the condi
tions of order, so that the national security
and national faith shall not suffer. Here is
a sacred obligation which cannot be post
poned. All mese guarantees should be com
pleted and crowned by au amendment of the
constitution of the United States, especially
providing that heiealter there shall be no de
nial ot the electoral franchise or any exclu-
sion of any kind on account of color or race,
but all persons shall be equal before the law.
At Ibis moment, under a just interpretation
of tr.e constitution, three-fourths ot the
States actually co-operating in the national
government are sufficient for this change.—
The words of the constitution are that
amendments shall be valid to all intents and
purposes “when ratified by three-fourths of
the Legislatures of the several states,” or,
to practical sense, by three-fourths
of the States that have Legislatures. If a
State has no Legislature it caunot be counted
in determining this quorum, as it is not
counted in determining the quorum of either
house of Congress, where precisely the same
question occurs. Aty other interpreta
tion recognizes the rebellion and plays into
its bands by conceding its power, through re
bellious contrivance, to preveot an amend
ment df the constitution, essential to the
general welfare.
He then urged the President to follow the
sentiment ot Massachusetts and Congress,
and concluded as follows: .
For myself, fellow citizens, pardon me if I
say that my course is fixed. Others may
hesitate; others may turn away from those
great truths which make the far-reaching
brightness of the republic; others may seek
a temporary favor by a temporary surrender.
I shall not. Tbe victory of blood, which has
been so painfully won, must be confirmed by
a greater victory of Ideas, so that the re
nowned words of Abraham Lincoln may be
fulfilled, and “tbls nation uaOat God shall
have anew birth of freedom, aud govern-'
roent of the people, by the people, and for
SAVANNAH. GEORGIA, FRIDAY. SEPTEMBER 22, 1865.
the people, shall not perish from tbe earth.”
To this end I seek no merely formal Union,
seething with smothered curses, but a prac
tical, moral and political unity, founded on
common rights, knit together by common
interests and inspired by a common faith,
wbeie our constitution, interpreted anew,
shall lie a covenant with life and a league
with Heaven, and liberty shall be every
where not only a right but a duty. John
Brown, on his way to the scaffold, where lie
was to atone with life for a deed of self-sac
rifice, stooped to take up a slave child. That
closing act was the legacy of the dying man
to his country. That benediction we must
continue and fulfil. The last shall be first;
and so, in this new order, equality, long post
poned, shall become tbe master principle of
our system and tbe very frontispiece of our
constitution. The rebellion was to beat down
this principle by founding a government on
the alleged “inferiority ot a race.” Taking
up the gauntlet I now insist that the insolent
assumption of the conspirators shall not pre
vail. This is not the first time that I have
battled with the barbarism of slavery. 1
battle still as the bloody monster retreats to
its lost citadel, and, God willing, I meau “to
fight it out on this line if it takes” what re
mains to me of life.
Mr. Sumner spoke about one hour and a
half, and was listened to with marked atten
tion and applause.
Photography as a Drawing-Room
Amusement.
HIE LATEST PARISIAN FASHION.
The Paris correspondent of the London
Morning Star writes : “Dubroni is the name
of a young and most promising engineer, a
pupil of the Ecole Polyteclmique. Laid up
for several years with bad health, his mind
remained as active as ever. Amidst the
most intense bodily sufferings he applied
himself, night and day, to the study and
perfection of photography, hoping to initiatc
the masses into its mysteries by symplify
ing tbe manipulations and turning photo
graphy into a drawing-room amusement
within the reach of every purse. In this,
Dubioni appears to have been quite suc
cessful, inasmuch ns his ingenious appara'us
entirely does away with the necessity of an
operating chamber. You have no longer to
dread any stains or spots on your dress or
hands, as the chemical operations are all ac
complished with tne pipette, a small instru
ment by means of which you can introduce
into the camera obscura, through a little
orifice, the different chemical batb9 which
the plate must undergo previous to its bear
ing a picture. Dubroni, after having pursued
bis experiments with unabated ardor, is
certainly entitled to the honor of attaching
his name to the scieoce of photography.
Another distinguishing feature of his lillipu
tian apparatus is the readiness with which it
can be set up for use and repacked in a box
which does not exceed in size a lady’s writ
ing desk. Among the notabilities who are
amusing themselves during their summer
vacations with the a/ipercil Dubroni are the
well-known diplomatists, Marquis de la
Valette and M. de Persigny,, and no
less a personage than Prince Napoleon him
self.”
