T S ivannah Daily Herald. BY S. W. MASON & CO. SAMUKL> W. MASOS Editor, \V. T. THOMPSOS, Associate Editor. HOSDAY JANUARY 8. 18GC. INCONSISTENCY. The position assumed by the leaders of the radio il party in Congress, that the Confeder ate Stales haying incurred penalties of re bel i< n iij'OSt'take.all the consequences, con • fiseation of property, forfeiture of political tight-. &C , is n t deducible Irom any theory deriv d limn the Constitution or public law. Those c mvi-r-uni with theConstitutioa need not. tie lold tuat the coercion of the States f rated uo part of our political system. The proposition to this effect was voted down in the convention. General Hamilton said that the Union must rest on voluntary consent. Any other principle, he argued, was incompatible with a confederation of States. Even those ■who justified the application ol force to co erce the Confederate States back “into the Union” were compelled to assume the posi tion that the authority of the Federal Gov ernment was paramount over that ot the States; that the latter could not exonerate their citizens from tbeir ailegience to the for mer, and that consequently they are liable to tbe penalties of treason. It seems a cor ollary Iroiu this doctriue that the Confeder ate Stales are still members of tbe Union, despite the action of conventions absolving them from all political obligations to it. If the right of secession is ignored, the right to punish is perfect, let the authority be what it may uuder which the jurisdiction of the United State 0 is resisted. The right to pardon, to grant an amnesty, flows neces sarily from the same doctrine. This is easily comprehended as the consequences of the dogma that secession is not a reserved right, and ihat nothing cun release any number of the States from the obligations of the Union. The whole question resolves itself into one of construction or interpretation The moderate portiou of the Republican party who profess to be guided by tbe Con stitution are perfectly consistent, therefore, in their doctrine. But the extremists—those who attach themselves to the school of Stevens, Sumner, &c.—are grossly inconsist ent. Tiiey entirely put aside the Constitu tion while pretending to vindicate it. Their only rule of action is the law ot force, the right of the conqueror—the seizure of the possessi- >ns of the vanquished, confiscation, deprivation of all civil rights, &c. These are among the rights of conquest, but not among the penalties of treason, at a period before civilization had softened the barba rous rules of warfare—befoie international law had ameliorated the usages of nations win.se only arbiter was the 9word. Mr. Raymond, by bis speech in Congress, has placed this subject in its true light. In reply to the arguments of Messrs Stevens anti Sumoer he said that the inference from the position assumed by them was in favor of the doctrine of secession. Are the seceded States in the Uuion or not. If still in the Union, as contended by President John son, they are entitled to the privileges of States, among which is representation iu Congress on assenting to bis conditions! which be bad the right ta impose, as Com- ''tpander iu Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States. If they are not in the Union and subject to the Constitution they are io be viewed as be!ligerenls,and li ible to the laws of war, ac cording to international law, or those rules of the C 'de of naliens applicable to subjugated Slates. Be id. s the penalties of treason to Wine i ali are liable individually who bad takeD part in ike rebeiliou (the logical result of Presideui Johnson’s doctrine), they are liable to tbe pm illy of a loss of inJendence. As oue o the consequences of subjugation, as a consequence of the doctrine of Messrs. Stevens and Sumner, they cannot be liable ind vuLally to th*. penalty of treason, and collictivcly, as States, to the penally of a lo38 of independence—to the extinction of na tionality. Uuder the law of nations they Could uot be tried aud punished for treason. Under tbe Constitution they could not be re garded as communities that had forfeited their independence, which would be the con clusion if Congress has the right to remaud them to the condition of Territories, as con tended for by Messrs. Stevens and Sumner. * FCRTheh PARTICULARS op THE aries of assistant and sub-assistant eocnims- LOSS OF THE STEAMSHIP CONSTI TUTION. From Cupt.

Jo the last war he served under General Andrew Jackson as a captain, and was in command of his company at the taking of Taliabasse by tbe Indians. G neral Cone was born in Bulloch county. His funeral will take place to-day, and his remains will be deposited in tbe family vault in that county. IN GENERAL.. — Gerritt Smith has finally commenced bis libel suit against the Chicago Tribune, laying his damages at $50,000. The suit is entered in the United States Circuit Court, before Judge Drummond.

The entire community were shocked yes terday morning by the reception of a rumor that a mo.-t diabolical outrage bad been per petrated on the family of an old gentleman residing about two and a half miles from the city, and familiarlv known as Antipas Moore. He is a gentleman of excellent standing in the counry. We shall not attempt to detail the boirors of the crimes we an* about to mention, but simply make a brief statement of what we understood to be the facts. It appears that at about eight o'clock on Friday a squad of negroes, either soldiers, or dressed as such, visited the house of Mr. Moore and demanded admittance. The in mates refused to open the door, when the ruffians attempted to force it open. For some reason or other, Mr. N. G. Moore, a son of Mr. Thomas F , made bis escape into the woods, the scoundrels firing at him a9 he rau. Tbe fiends then succeeded in breaking open tbe door and entered, when they de manded money, and their exactions not being complied with, they knocked down the old gentleman and threw him out of doors, and beat him so severely that be could no longer make any resistance. They placed a guard over him aud re-entered tbe house, when they demanded of Mrs. Moore information as to tbe whereabouts of her husband’s money —they had already taken all that he bad iu bis pocket—which she peisistently retused to give. They then knocked her down, and several ot the indescribably diabolical w'retches violated the old lady's person. They also treated in tbe same manner her grand child, who is not over ten years of age. After helping themselves to what they desired they left tbe terribly abused and out raged family. No traces as yet have been found wbicli may lead to tbeir discovery. Mr. Moore and his son—the latter of whom professes that he hid himself in lue weeds while his father was being, so far as he knew, murdered, and his own aged mother was suffering a nameless outrage— were in the city yesterday, and at the Head- quarles of Col. Win. B- Giw, Post Com mander, signed the following statement : TKSTIMONV OF NICHOLAS O. MOORE. Last night six or twelve colored men, I can tell you how they were dressed, I think some of them wore short coats or jackets, with guns, and some wore overcoats, came toiny father's house, neqr Mission Ridge, about two and a half miles from town, about eight o’clock and demanded admittance into the house ; the door was not opened at their demand; 1 looked out of the door when some one or more fired two or three shots; I then fled into Hie back yard and hid myself iu the weeds.
