We have faithful Carriers in Savannah and at Hilton Head, and through them we always serve regular subscrioera first. PRESIDENT JOHN SION’S VIEWS WITH REFERENCE TO THE EQUALITY OF THE STATES. It has been observed, doubtless,by tbe rea ders of this paper that we have studiously av, ided the discussion of political subjects, or other topics of a partizin or excitiug nature, during »lae eventful period in which the South has been painlully and anxiously engaged in the < rganic process cf reconstruction. Tue reasons which in duced us to adopt this course in the con duct oi the Ht.RALD.we so obvious to tbe pa triotic and intelligent reader as not to re quire either recital or elucidation. That it bus been the duty of every good citizen, and more especially incumbent upon con ductors of the press, to abstain irom all in dulgence in inflammatory and exciting ap peals to tbe passions and prejudices of the people at a time of great peril, and to es cape which, demanded the exercise of their best judgment unaffected by political con troversy or sectional animosity, must be conceded by every true citizen who has at heart the peace and prosperity of our com mon country. We do not propose to depart from tbis rule even now, by indulging in strictures or denunciation, when we feel that we are called upon to notice some grave political er ror, the practical recognition of which by our National Government, would iuflict a grievous wrong i ion the States lately in re bellion. Recent political demonstrations at the North indicate the existence of a paitv ■which denies in unequivocal terms, the equality of tbe States, in the proposition to exclude from the Union for an indefinite pe riod tbe seceding States, and maintaining at the same time that it will ultimately receive the sanction of President Johnson. The fal lacy of the proposition itself, is so patent, and the statement that it will be endorsed by tbe President, is so devoid of probability that but a few remarks will be necssary to expose their wicked attempt to deceive tbe people. At the called sesssion of Congress, in 1861, tbe following resolution was offered by President Johnson, then in tbe Senate, and pressed by him with much persistence: -Resolved by the Senate, That the present deplorable civil war has been forctdupmi the country by the disuniunists ot the S mtli ern Siatts, now in arms against the constitu tional Government and in arms arouud the capital ; that in this national emergency. Congress, banishing all feel ugs of meie pa siou or resentment, wid revolted only bs duty to the whole country ; that this vvat it not waged on their part in any s irit ot op pression, or tor any purpose of conquest or subjugation, or purpose of overthrowing or interieriug with the rights or established in stitutions of those States, but to defend aud maintaiu the supremacy of the Constitution, and preserve the Uuiou with all the dignity, equality, and rights of the several States uu impaired ; and that as soon as these objects are accomplished the war ought to cease.’’ The last lines of this resolution defined the object for which the military power of the Uuion was called into requisition, and the terminus at which it ought, iu tbe opinion of Mr. Johnson, to be laid down. The Presi dent has so often declared that be stands by his antecedents, that it would be doing him injustice to suppose that he inteuds to abjure an opinion expressed in a manner so formal, with an emphasis so solemn, and having such ditect relation to the particular stage in our uflairs at which be becomes the chief actor. The objects for which Mr. Johnson declared that lecourse was had to the mili tary power of the Union, are three in num ber ; the first two of widen have already been attained, but the third not yet. Tue three are these : lit. The supremacy of the Constitution. 2d. The preservation of the Union. 3d. The unimpaired equality of the several States. The first two of these purposes having becD accomplished. President Johnson has disband ed a large portion of the army ; and to judge him by his own words, the war-like powers which he continues to exercise, are exerted only as a means of superintending and in suring the accomplishment of the third and final end of the war, which is the restoration ot the States to a condition ot unimpaired dignity and equality. This done, he is bound by his own declarations to relinquish all powers not exercised in a state -ot peace. It is always of advantage to keep the end clearly in view, and to make it a criterion for judging ot the means adapted for its furtherance. If the unimpaired equali ty of the States is the only remaining pur pose for which military authority continues to be used, it is clear that the war power cannot be employed to break down State equality. Tne radicals are trying to spur on the President to subvert that equality of the States, which, as a Senator, he declared it to be the finai object ot the war to restore un impaired. But logic, statesmanship, and common sense are all on the side of the President—supposing the President to stand by the position of the Senator. The equality of the States being thus un deniably established, the whole ground is cu l away from under the Radicals. They have nothing to stand upon. Nothing can right fully be demanded of any State which is not enforced upon every other. If there is a pro position relating to the Federal system which may be considered as incontrovertible, ii is this, that the Slates in the Union are equal in dignity and rights. There are some sub Jetts on which it may be difficult to defiut the precise question of power which the States have given up to the Federal Government or ret&lu for themselves ; but wherever the di v d!bg line may be drawn between State and Federal powers, it is certain that whatever powers may be retained by one State, are equally retained by all. This results from the single instrument of surrender, without •uy bice inquiry into the memory of its parti- color clauses. Tim cohrtitulion titclatsa that oil p*iw- rs not delegated to it by tbe General G vernon nt, nor by it prohibited to the S ab-*, are re tri ed. ‘ Now,’’ in the language of ano I tr, "thedelegations of power.and the pr bibit.< -os of power, being made in lau gutge which includes all the States alike, lucre is it" means of proving that any parti cular power does, or dees not, belong to a State, which does not equally prove that it belongs to ad, or to none. Whatever may be tht true interpretation of the constitution, it would be the height of absurdity to make the 6ame language mean different things.” There is nothing in the Constitution which applies any more to oue Stale than another, tbe very same words being used with reier ence to all. The difference between the President and the Radicals is, at the bottom, a difference as to whether tbe States are equal. Admit the Union to be indissoluble, admit tbe Southern States are still in the Union, as President Johnson insists, and the arguments for the ; President’s position are of overwhelming and irresistible force. According to President Johnson, the Southern Slates cannot be ex cluded indefinitely, and the only proper em ployment of the military authority is in re sulting what the Radicals insist he shall use it to destroy, viz ; the “unimpaired dig nity, equality and right* of the States.” NEW READING OF THE CONSTITU TION. Mr. Sumner, the Senator from Massachu setts, has recently assumed that the amend ment of the Constitution abolishing slaveiy is now part of that Constitution. He con tends for this singular interpretation of that instrument, that not three-fourths of all the States, but three-fourths actually represented are required to constitute a quorum, and that as the amendment in question has been passed by more than a majority, it has be come a portion of the Constitution. The New York Evening Post cites against this construction, so new to all constitutional lawyers, the language of the Constitution : “ The Congress, whenever two-thirds of both bouses shall deem it necessary, shall propose amendments to the Constitution, which shall be valid to ail intents and purposes as part of this Constitution when ratified by tbe Legis latures of three fourths of the several States.” The Evening Post, asks, very properly, "Now, is here meant by “ the several States? Evidently, the States composing the Uuion, which are thirty-four in number, and no one of which, by any act of its own, is capable of dissolving its connection with the Union.” Bui Mr. Sumner reasons from opposite premises. His theory is that tbe States re cently in rebellion have forfeited their rights in the Union. They have, say the Radicals, been conquered. They are part of the spoils ot war. Having forfeited their privileges, they are entitled to no constitutional rights. The party with which Mr. Sumner acts de nies that the position of reinstatement taken by the President is correct. If the States iu revolt have never been out of the Union— which is President Johnson's position—they are entitled to all the privileges that would belong to them if they had never seceded, fier their restoration. But if they have in curred forfeiture of thuse privileges, how c tn Mr. Sumner pretend to apply to them any part of the Constitution. They are still members of the Union, or they are not. If stii, members of the Union, on being restored they take their place by the side of the other Stutcs. If the rights of conquest are to be extended over them, they are entitled to none of the privileges of the Constitution Better from Alexander 11. Stephen*. New York, September 28. Jb the Editor of the Herald : I have read with great interest the remarks of the Louisville Journal aud the World con cerning the long imprisonment of Mr. A. H. Stephens. I happen to be able to bear testi mony to the efforts made by him in tue autumn of 1860 to prevent a disruption of the uuion. Alter reading the very able aud courageous speech which be made to dis suade tbe legislature of Georgia from calling a convention ot the Slate, I wrote to him Irom Boston, where I then resided, expres ing my sympathy in his efforts, aud my de sire to do everything in my power to assist him. His answer I now publish, being un willing longer to keep private a letter which iloes him so much credit, although it painful ly reminds me of the vain exertions made in the North and in the South to save the coun try from the disasters prepared for it by the extremists of both sections. Yours respectfully. Geo. T. Ccrtis. Cn Awfordsville, Ga„ Nov. 30, 1860. My De?r Sir: Your kind and esteemed favor of the 23d instant is before me. I was truly glad to receive it, and to know that the geDeral line of policy indicated in the speech made by me betore our legislature met your approval. The times are indeed perilous, and uotbing but the prompt and most energetic action on the part of the patriots in all sec tions of the country can save the republic.— Os this lam confident; but lam not confi dent or even sanguine in my hopes that even this caD do It. Still the effort should be made. South Carolina, I suppose, will certainly go out of the Union forthwith—just as soon as her convention meets and can act. My ap prehension is that Georgia, Alabama. Flori da, and Mississippi will go too. If South Carolina would wait to see whether the oi feuding States North would change their position and resume their constitutional ob ligations, I have but little doubt that Geor gia would also. But when South Carolina takes the lead, I have but little hope of either of the other named States holding back. This, I assure you, may be looked for. What s rtof an adjustment can afterwards be made to restore union or effect recon struction Ido not know. lam cer.ain, how ever t.iat nothing short of what was indi cated in my speech, to which you refer, can. Suould the seceding States be let alone—no torce used against them—perhaps an amica ble understanding and settlement of the matters in controversy might be made at no distant day. But if resort to arms is once had, all prospect of peace and uuion, in my judgmeut, will be gone forever. I write freely and frankly to you. What I say is in- tended for yourself only, and not for the public in any sense of the word. When I tell you what I apprehend will be the course of the Georgia Convention, it is only to ap pri-e yon of the real state ot things here. There are a large number of our people who will sustain my position, but I feel that the odds are against us. We will do all that we can, and should any decided demonstra tion be made in Massachusetts, or other Northern States, on the part of any leading republicans, to right the wrongs of which our people so justly complaiD, it would great ly aid us in our patriotic endeavors to save the Constitution, and the Union under it.— This is my earnest desire. L hanking you again for your letter, and bo| mg to hear from you again as to the pros pect in Massachusetts, I remain yours truly, « »r n Ai -' X<ni>kr H. Stephens. Geo. T.
