THE NEW STATE OB' COLORADO.
Perhaps the ino9t wonderful of the many
rand events to which this enlightened age
as given birth, is the rapid match of civili-
ation and the arts over the magnificent >vil-
lerness country extending from the western
onlines of Arkansas, Missouri and Kansas
0 n o the distant shores of the Pacific. As, ap
parently, the result of the creative power of
u *ome mystical influence, we find the repre
sentative agents of a new polilical organiza-
i >n knocking nervously at the doors of each
uccessive Congress tor admission. A new
illustration of the truthfulness of this remark
,s even now trauspiriug at the Federal Capi-
:ol, in the arrival of two gentlemen, bearing
with them credentials, in due form, entitling
them to seats as United States Squalors from
kjthe new State of Colorado. The sudden ap-
stpearance of this new star in our Federal con
catenation of States marks an era in the his
tory of our mining region. It. is the first
?tate formed from this region whose waters
in good pan flow eastward to the Missouri
and the Gulf; it is on the great highway
across the continent, soon to be traversed by
the iron track ; even without this, it is more
easy of access from the older States than any
other region abounding in native gold and
^'silver ; its chief mines being now reached in
a ten days from New York; while those of
"Montane, Idaho or Nevada require a journey
0 at least twice as long and far more tediou 8
“ and perilous.
( Yet, says the New York Tribune, Colorado
t has increased not so rapidly as some of the
j other Territories in population, production
* and wealth. Lying chiefly on the hither
* slope of the Rocky Mountains, it has sent
5 thousands of its pioneers to the war, while
i the other Territories sent few or none. It
* has for two or three years suffered from a
! visitation ol grasshoppers, equal in number
and voracity to the locusts of the Orient,
whereby its infant agricultute has been all
but annihilated. And eveu its mines—rich
as chemical analysis has often shown them—
have proved less productive than their dis
coverers had ample reason to expect.
The Tribuue, in its explanations of the
reasons for this, says the gold-bearing quariz
veins are heavily charged with baser miner
als, especially with sulphur. If any heating
process be tried, these sulphates readily fuse
into a vitreous mass, which defies every
effort at chemical solution, and whereon
quicksilver exerts no influence whatever.
Thus piles of ore proved and known to con
tain 8200 per ton of the precious metais,
have often yielded to the miners’ stamping
and separating processes hardly a tithe of
that amoum—not half enough to defray the
cost of mining.
It is stated that processes aud combina
tions recently invented have overcome these
difficulties, so that ores treated by the best of
them now yield very largely. However this
may be, it is believed the true solvents will
be ascertained and applied, and that the new
State of Colorado is soon to enter on a new
career of growth and prosperity.
tbolic; his subjects are partly Catholic and
partly Protestant. There is an old feud be
tween them. Religious parties of the worst
kind might break out, and a struggle for power
would ensue, were these parties not kept in
restraint by the influence and neighborhood
of powerful monarchies. It was by the com
bined influence of England and France that
Belgium was separated from Holland and
erected into an independent kingdom. It
was an achievement of Lord Palmerston’s
diplomacy that constitutes the principal tri
umph of his foreign policy. The two states
men who on that occasion broke the spell
of the old dogma, that England and France
were natural enemies, were Palmerston aud
Talleyrand. The first of that change was the
entente cordiale, which was pronounced a
forced and unnatural arrangement, but has
endured now for upwards of a quarter ot a
century.
The safety of the B dgic kingdom and the
continuance of the dynasty of that branch or
the House of Orange, of which Leopold the
Second is the inheritor, will be perpetuated
While the entente cordiale continues betweeu
England and France.
THE PROPOSED COTTON CONVENTION
The committee appointed by the New'
York Chamber of Commerce have reported
against the memorial presented by Mr. A.
Penfield, ofj Washington City, directing the
attention of the chamber to the importance
of increasing the production of cotton in the
United States, asking it to recommend the
bolding a of National Convention to devise
means f.w securing that end, and suggesting
the propriety of governmental interference.
The committee express their approval of the
end suggested by the memorialist, but dis
sent from the means recommended. They
are aware that the devastations of war have
destroyed much of the capital hitherto em
ployed in the cultivation of cotton; ‘‘that
the abolition of slavery has for the present
greatly disturbed the pre-existing relations
of capital and labor throughout the cotton
growing region of our country; that the
diminished production duriug the war has
more than quadrupled its market value; and
hence, that its cultivation for some years to
come presents a most inviting field for the
investment of labor and money."
And the committee conclude, in that spirit
ol non interference which is best adapted to
the genius of our government, “that any in
terference on the part of the United Stales
Government, save for the preservation of
order and the protection of the relative rights
of capital and labor, would mar rather than
facilitate the Increased production of cotton.
Nor can they believe that a National Con
vention would be productive ol beneficial
results.
“It would be likely, as all 3uch popular
movements are, to discourage individual
efforts through the fear of competition, and
by exciting expectations of co-operative ac
tion, which, in the end would, judging from
past experience in similar cases, be almost
certain to prove illusory."
BELGIUM.
The greatest hazard to the stability of mo
narchical institutions since the revolution of
1348 has been the death of the ruling sover
eign, except where traditionary attachments
have become stronger thau the.popular de
sire for chauge. The monarchies of the con
tinent of Europe underwent a violent shock
in 1848. The monarchical principle has ne
ver been viewed with the same sentiment of
veneration since as before that revolution
which drove nearly every monarch in Europe
from his throne. The sentiment of loyalty
so deeply Implanted for centuries in Europe
has never since taken such deep root in the
public mind, nor will it ever while there is
room afforded for any freedom of discussion
through the press and legislative assembly.
We date the establishment of representa
tive Institutions from the day that the.Em-
peror of Austria, the King of Prussia, and
the lesser powers of Germany were forced to
concede to their subjects the right of repre
sentation by annual parliaments. This has
established a new eara in political history.
The change that menaces dynastic interests
Is the demise of the ruling mouarch, and the
play that is thence afforded to political pas
sions—to the ambition of rival factions or
parties, unless where it is the interest ot
surrounding and powerful States to sustain
s n existing government aud the hereditary
succession.
Such is now tbe position of Belgium- The
death of the Belgic king affords such au
^opportunity. Leopold the Second is a Ca-
TIIK SOVEREIGNTY OF THE STATES.
This is a phrase which has lost its signifi
cance amidst ‘the clash of arms and the strug
gle between the North and South. Occa
sionally, but very rarely, a consolidationis 1
is met with in some Northern magazine or
newspaper contending for the doctrine he de
lights to advocate, but the feeble echo of
whose voice is scarcely heard amidst the din
of party conflicts. It seems the highest grati
fication, however, of some old followers of
the school of Alexander Hamilton to renew
his principles in order to keep alive those
rules of constitutional construction which
formed his peculiar creed of politics. A
writer of this school, whose lucubrations
have formed a place in “The Nation, a
clever periodical published in the city of New
York, who is determined that the con
troversy shall not die out, of which
the basis was the sovereignty of the
States. This writer, who dates his commu
nications from Florence, Italy, has evinced a
pervertt d ingenuity in tracing historically
the successive phases which the Constitution
has assumed. His theory is, that at no stage
in our history could sovereignty of the States
be predicated. In fact, he attempts to prove
that the word sovereignty is meaningless, as
applied to the Slates—that the phrase sove
reignty of the States cannot be brought with
in any precise definition. In this he discards
the uses which have been made of tbe phrase
in the discussions which have taken place in
the convention that formed the Constitution,
between Madison, Hamilton, Patrick Henry,
Luther Martin, and the other members of
that convcntibn—in out courts of highest
judicature, Stale aud Federal, presided over
by John Marshall, Parsons, Kent, Spencer,
aud all tbe lights which have illuminated our
jurisprudence.
The writer commences with attempts to
lay the foundation of his argument in this
wise :
“I have said that the point under discus
sion, the sovereignty of the States, was a
pending, practical, vital question, and it
seems to me that, unless the view I am taking
nf the subject is sound, neither the emanci
pation proclamation nor any other of the
leading measures of the last administra
tion, nor even the plan of reconstruction
now in progress under President Johnson,
can be sustained as having any legal force
or validity. Every one of the measuies in
question involves the exercise of powers by
the National Executive and Congress which
are utterly inconsistent with the notion of a
substantial sovereignty in the States. So
vereignties are either co-equal or, with refe
rence to each other, they are non-existent ;
tor “a sovereignty subordinate to another so
vereignty” is a contradiction in terms, and
the true relation of the inferior to the supe
rior can never be expressed by a proposition
which shall ascribe that attribute to both,
with whatever qualifications it may be
guarded. We may indeed say, loosely, of
the United States and the several States, that
they are sovereign each in their respective
spheres. But we may, with equal truth and
comprehensiveness ot meaning, say the same
thing ot the United States and &uy chartered
corporation-Dartmouth College,lor instance.
The word sovereign signifies just as much in
one case as in the oilier, and it is an abuse of
language to employ it in either. The appli
cation of tbe predicate “sovereign”—a defi
nite and well understood technical term of
ttie vocabulary of political science—to tlie
States of the American Union, is precisely
one of those cates where, as Coleridge ob
serves, “by familiatiziug the mind to equi
vocal expressions—that is, such as may be
taken in two or more different meanings—
we introduce confusion of thought aud
furnish tbe sophist with hia best and
handiest tools. For the juggle of
sophistry consists, for the most part,
in using a word in one sense in the pre
mises, and iu another sense in the conclu
sion." Iu the minds of the framers of the
confederation, “sovereign, 1 ’as applied to the
several States, conveyed a totally different
idea from that expressed by the same word
as applied to the United States, or to other
independent powers, as France or Great
Britain; and this douole use of the word,
this ‘‘juggle” of Southern sophistry, has
roved the “besUand handiest tool” of the
itate-right disorganizers.”
In this elaborate effort to prove that sove
reignty cannot be predicated of what be calls
subordinate authority,the writer assumes the
point to be proved—the subordination of the
States to one supreme head, which was the
people of the United States collectively, aud
not of tbe States separately. No one dis
putes that tbe people are tbe supreme head
of all authority. But the writer fails to es
tablish that tbe Congress and Executive of
tbe United States, in whom he centres all
authority, from the Revolutionary Congress
to t he present, represents the will of the whole
people. In reaching his conclusion he of
course ignores the fact that tbe sovereignty
of the States is, and was always represented
in the Senate aud in the electoral body- But
be also ignores the facts of history. The se
parate sovereignty of the States was recog
nized by name in the treaty of 1783, by which
tbeir separate independence and nationality
was also recognized by the very power against
which they had revolted.
We would not have noticed this writer
bnt to show what rapid strides the doctrines
of consolidation are making at the North.
We are satisfied that he' represents a large
party in that section who are resolved on
totally changing the character of the Consti
tution, if not by judicial construction, at
least by amendment of the instrument. The
liberality of their concession to the South
will be judged by the following sentence of
tbe writer, who, after mentioning various
dedatory provisions, says: “/ would leave the
States unshorn of every prerogative, and in the

\V. M. DAVIDSON,
Agent for Massey, Collins & Co.
It is unnecessary to say anything regard
ing tbe qualiiy of my Ale—its reputation was
WELL ESTABLISHED long before the
war, throughout GEORGIA, ALABAMA
and FLORIDA.
This Ale is brewed expressly for me at an
EXTRA COST, and I flatter myself that with
TWENTY-ONE years’ experience in tbe bu
siness in THIS CITY, 1 know what kind of
Ale ia best suited for this market. My CEL
LARS are the best in the City; which fact,
together with my knowledge of the man
agement of Ale, enables me to assure my
friends of a constant supply ol Superior Ale
the year round.

CONSTITUTION
LIFE SYRUP,
COMPOSED OF IODIDE OF POTASSIUM,
WITH THE COMPOUND CONCEN
TRATED FLUID EXTRACT OF
VALUABLE MEDICINAL
ROOTS AND HERBS.
Prepared by
WM. H. GREGG. M. D.,
Graduate of the college of Physicians and Surgeons,
New York; Jbnnerly Assistant Physician
in the Blackwell's Island Hospitals.
CONSTITUTION LITE SYRUP
Has produced a revolution in Medicine.
What may seem almost Incredible is, that many dls
eases hitherto considered hopelessly incurutde are fi e
quently cured in a few days or weeks; and we cheer
rally invite the investigations of the liberal minded and
scientific to cures which have no parallel at the pres-
sent day.
Daring the past five years we have contended with
obstacles and overcome opposition as herculean as
were ever encountered by any reformers.
RAPIDITY OF CURE.
Some say, "Your cures are too qnick,” while others
doubt their permanence, and think that diseases cun
only be cured by tbe “slow, recuperative process ol
Nature."
This Is our reply: In health, the body, like a well-
balanced scale, is in a state of equilibrium Bnt when,
Irom any cause, down goes one side of the scale, we
have the effects of disease. What is requisite, is to re
store the normal balance of tbe scale.
CONSTITUTION LIFE SYRUP
Is a positive and specific remedy for all diseases orlgi
noting from au impure slate of the Blood, and for al
thereaitaiyj diseases transmitted from parent to child
PARALYSIS.
It is eo universally 4dm It tod that Constitution Life
Syrnp Is the only effective means of restoration in the
various forms of Paralysis, tltat we need not reiterate-
that it is emphatically the Great-Life-giving Power.
