Our Answer to " Liberal.”
It may seem to our readers to he
ing “a tilt upon a tombstone” for us
argue with a politician who still
for the State right of secession, or
believes that that is yet a cardinal
ciple of the Democratic creed (for
we cannot tell w hich our correspondent
driving at—it seems to depend upon
party he goes with.) But it may be
well right here to say t hat the Democratic
party of the South no longer contends for
the constitutional right of secession, and
if “Liberal” is yet travelling in that old
rut, he is the least “reconstructed rebel"
that we have yet had to encounter, The
new constitutions of the “late rebellious”
States distinctly renounce all claim to the
right of secession; that of Georgia does
so in the most unmistakable and emphatic
terms. There are two tilings which the
entire people of the South (with the pos¬
sible exception of our correspondent and
a few other impracticables) do accept us
accomplished results of the war, aud
these two are the abolition of African
slavery anil the renunciation of the right
of secession.
But it by uo means follows that be¬
cause the right of secession is given up,
the States have no rights which the Fed¬
eral Government is bound to respect.
They ha ve great and improtant rights, and
we have said, aud still say, that the Ohio
Democratic platform, in a general man¬
ner, claims aud insists on them. We are
^his convinced that it is sufficiently explicit on
point to satisfy the Democrats of the
South. A platform which “declares its
support of the Federal Government in all
its constitutional authority,” aud at the
same time demands for the States and
the people all their inherent or undelega¬
ted rights, will bo acceptable to the Dem¬
ocrats of the.South, even if it does “op¬
pose nullification and secession.” Wheth¬
er, therefore, the Democrats in I860 ac¬
cepted Mr. Douglas’ declaration that the
Constitution of the United States was the
supreme law of the land, or not, is now
immaterial, since it is clearly so admitted
in the new' Constitutions of the Southern
States aud by tlie Southern people gener¬
ally. But a constitution may be supreme
and not exclusive-paramount and not. ab¬
solute or unrestricted. This is the light
in which we regard tho Constitution of
the United States fix strong!hond by the
results of the war. Atm it this is a cor¬
rect view, each may he “sovereign” in its
sphere, though oue is paramount to or su¬
preme over the other in matters affecting
the jurisdiction of both.
Our correspondent, we are convinced,
“reckons without his host,” when he im¬
agines that the Democrats of the South
are going to turn back and butt their
brains out against tho mile-stones which
the_y have passed in the progress of revo¬
lutionary events in the last ton or twelve
years. They will not lose their chance of
accomplishing great reforms that are at¬
tainable by demanding impossibilities
which are unattainable. The next great
political contest in this country will not
be for stripping the Federal Government
of any of its constitutional powers, but
for restricting it to its constitutional lim¬
itations;' and the Demudi V of Ohio have
so defined it with a distinctness that can¬
not be misunderstood.
SUEIM ME COURT DECISIONS.
Wo find in the Atlanta Constitution of
Thursday, a number of decisions render¬
ed by tlie Supreme Court of Georgia, on
Tuesday. As our limits will not permit
our copying .them entire, we gloitu from
the reports points which strike us as of
general interest or probable common ap
preeiability.
In Hunt vs. The State, from Cobb, the
Supreme Court decided that the Court lie
low erred in limiting the defendant’s
counsel to thirty minutes in his argument
before the jury—such limitations being
in conflict with the constitutional guar¬
anty of benefit of counsel to every person
charged with au offense against tho laws.
lu Alexander vs. Maltbie, from Gwin¬
nett, the Supreme Court sustained the
decision of tho Judge below, that the ten¬
der of Confederate notes in payment
of a debt did not create such an equity
as would authorize the jury to reduce the
amount of the judgment, which was upon
notes dated in 1861 and 1862.
In ltuff vs. Phillips, from Cobb—A pri¬
vate nuisance may be abated in this State,
under the provisions of sections 4023 etc.,
of the ltevised Code, provided the appli¬
cation is made by the party injured.
To make a business a nuisance it must
be such to people of ordinary nature * 1 1
condition, it is not sufficient if it be sim¬
ply offensive to delicate and sensitive or
ganizations.
In Field. Adrn'r vs. Price, from Lump¬
kin—Whilst, as a general rule, the prin¬
by cipal alone can sue on a contract made
an agent, for the benefit of the princi¬
pal, yet if the agent himself have an in
terest in the contract, he may sue upon it
in his own name.
In Smith vs. King, Equity, from Gwin¬
nett—
A widow is not put to an election be¬
tween a child's part and dower until there
is administration on the estate of the hus¬
band. h;pr does the statute of limitation
run against her application for dower if
she has remained in possession of the
land until the application is made.
When the title to laud is in tenants in
common, and their several interests hav: t
become complicated and cannot be defin¬
itely ascertained and set apart at law,
equity just will entertain jurisdiction to ad¬
by one decree the rights of all.
In Field vs. Martin, ex'r, from Lump
kin
M here oue or two obligees in a bond
for titles dies, the action for a breach of
the bond, for not exeeutint* a ,i,.„,i a .

If the obligor in the bond, after its exe
cution, sell the land to a third person,
giving such person a bond for titles, puts
min in possession, and receives the whole
of the purchase money, it is a breach of
the first bond, and no demand for a deed I
is necessary before action is brought.

DEMOCRACY IS THE PAST
THE PRESENT.
Kditor Sun: I wisti to refer to your
dorsement Editorially in your last
day’s paper of the Ohio Democratic
lotions. J: is said discussion c m
injure a just cause, therefore, a piupos.
tion to look into these resolulious can
hanllv meet with objection from you.
You say they “embody a political creed,
winch if carried into effect would restore the
Government to its constitutional limits,' 1
&,c. You also add further words of sanc¬
tion and even commendation. It is indeed
surprising that your experienced eye atnl
comprehensive mind in political matters,
had not discovered even without a
analysis of them, that these
ign >re the principal plank in the
hoi: o: ed Democratic creed. State
reigniy, which has always been the
dation stone of the party, is expressly re¬
pudiated. The first, Resolution declares
“it- support of the Federal Government
in all its constitutional authority, and
pos -s nullification and secession," (they
menu the present constitution as it is,)
and consequently they, as well as all who
endorse them, consent that if these were
onc>- the foundation stones of Jefferson¬
ian Democracy, they do not now exist. In
otic r words, in contending for the “re¬
served' rights of the Slates, something
less than State sovereigny—acts of na¬
tion tiity is demanded. How much less *
Where is the line?
Tnnse resolutions express no more than
was urged upon the Democracy in 1860 in
this city, by the great Douglass when he
pro .injured, as with a trumpet tongue:
“ Tub Constitution of the United States
is the supreme law of the land, and every
citizen in every part thereof is entitled to
eqn il rights, privileges and immunities,”
etc. That was an abandonment of State
sovereignty and the right of secession. I
say “right of secession,” because it is in¬
cident to sovereignty. If there is sover¬
eignty in a State, there is, therefore, also
the right of secession, and without, sover¬
eignty, there iH no such right. The De¬
mocracy South, as a body, neither be¬
lieved nor yielded to this doctrine in 1860,
and if we may judge the future by the
pas!, they will not in 1876 nor ever.
'1 he events of the last campaign are not
to be lightly treated or forgotten. You
remember the effort at the “new depar¬
ture,” (and this is just what is meant by
these Chio resolutions) was as great as
can ho expected in the future. Its neces¬
sity was apparent and pressing upon many
thousands of our best men who had a
loathing of dead issues, and a desire to
take hold of the political questions as
they are. But tho old sure enough
Democrats—Jeffersonians, Mr. Stephens
aud others, who still think tho States are
sovereign notwithstanding the great war
—set thomsolves against it, and finally
succeeded'in “whipping in,” the party,
editor of the Sun and all; and as proof,
he, Mr. Stephens, is honored with a seat
in Congress without opposition. Well,
Mr Editor, these Ohio resolutions go tho
length of the Cincinnati platform, and
t.bui went as fur us any Republican plat¬
form on the subject of State sovereignty.
Ami it had as well bo said and settled that
all oforence in the Cincinnati platform
to State rights, meant just what this first
resolution of tho Ohio Democracy means,
our orators of last fall to the contrary
notwithstanding.
No sir, the “new departure” oar will
nor or move a wheel in the South so long
as it is left to the present organization of
the Democracy, and its old secession
leaders. Let 1876 toll.

THE OHIO CANVASS.
Extract* from a Speech by the Hon. Wil¬
liam Alien, Democratic Candidate for
Governor, at Chillicothe.
It has been said that the Democratic
organization to a certain extent acted un¬
wisely iti attempting to restrain the un¬
bridled fury of tho opposition in the late
great struggle in this country, That is a
grave mistake. The passions of the other
party carried them far beyond what tlieir
sober prudence would have dictated in
their conduct of the late war, and it was
necessary that while the Union should be
preserved intact, and tho supremacy aud
dignity of the Federal Government vin¬
dicated, tho matter should not be allowed
to run iuto the channels of bloody re¬
venge; therefore it became necessary that
the Democratic party should enter pro¬
test, and that Northern feeling should in¬
tercede when those ends had been accom¬
plished, and had it. not been for this pro¬
test. on the part of the Democracy, let me
ask you where would the war have ended?
You can ansfver, in the destruction of the
whole South and the Southern people.
But the destructive feeling found its
check in tho North, and mainly in the
Democratic organization.
the time has come for action, and I say
to you, my friends, that next to the act of
abolishing a free Government would be
the abolition of the Democratic party.
What is Democracy ? Is it not a Govern¬
ment of the people? It is simply a Gov¬
ernment for the whole people, and not
for any special or particular class. We,
as Democrats, are in favor of no special
laws that in the least look to the favoring
of classes. The great point now at stake
is whether the Government shall
he carried on by the people as
a unit, or by a few persons who
live to fill their coffers and enrich them¬
selves and their descendents at the ex¬
pense of the people; sucking away at the
public moneys until they resemble the
rat in the meal-tub that hud eaten so much
that he could not get out at the bung
hole. and all these men are retained iu
office and aided in their plunderings by
the federal machinery. Not one in fifty
in the Republican party-and by Kepub
hem party I mean the masses and not
the office-holders ' V1 cry out that they
want ... things to they stand.
remain as now
No human in the United States who is not
a paid officer of the Government can deny
the fact that the corruptions existing have
dissatisfied nine hundred aud ninety-nine
out of every thousand in the country, and
the Democracy intend that they shall have
au opportunity of removing these evils.

WHAT THE SOI Til HAS LOST
— CAR EE T-Ii A(l~ It UL E.
| A correspondent ol the iNew x '
bund who has taken some pains to
,
' tigate theaetual condition of the Southern
contributes to that journal the
suit, of his labors, which is comprised in
nearly , three columns i of closely | i , punted , .
matter. His exhibit is of the most
teresting character, and shows coliclu
»iv,ly the evil effects which have followed
the so-called “reconstruction of the
Southern States under Kadic i rule in
1860, the value of property in thirteen
Southern States, not including Delaware,
Maryland and Missouri, was tive hundred
629. In 1870, deducting
dolia%> for each slave reported in 1800,
and reducing the valuation to the gold
basis of the previous decade, the valua
tion was $2,702,263,120, a loss of thirty
per cent. 'The States* of Maryland, Dela
ware and Missouri, however, fared
very differently. During the ten
years Missouri gained nearly $600,000,
000; Maryland $188,000,000, and Del¬
aware $33,000,000. The loss of property
in the thirteen Southern States was,
therefore, twelve hundred and thirty
millions in gold, a mini two-thirds as
large as the bonded debt of the United
States. Their entire property in 1800,
exclusive of slaves, was $3,993,009,(>20,
and their loss is thirty per cent, of that
sum. The loss of slaves, added to that
already mentioned, makes a total of three
billions two hundred and thirty millions!
over one-half of the entire property of
the thiiteen States. Missouri and Mary¬
land were afflicted by the waste and losses
of war quite as much as the majority of
the thirteen States, but Missouri has
gamed 134 per oent. since i860, and Ala¬
bama and Georgia have each lost respect¬
ively 41 and 47 per ceut. Arkansas and
Missouri had about the same number of
slaves, ami yet Arkansas has lost 22
per cent, ot its wealth. The causes there¬
fore that have led to this decay in ihe
Southern Slates have cost the eountiy not
only the twelve hundred millions abso¬
lutely lust but the four thousand millions
which they have not gained—a sum more
than twice as great as the wiioie national
debt. The increase in the value of South¬
ern farms from 1850 to 1800 was one thou¬
sand millions of dollars, but tne decrease
from 1800 to 1870 has been still greater,
so that the entire «alue of farms m the
thirteen States in less than it was in 18 -jO,
twenty-three years ago. And emancipa¬
tion has not caused this startling decay.
Missouri had slaves and was the seat •> as
tierce u war as any of the other States,
and yet in Missouri the value of farms
has increased one hundred and s xty mil¬
lions !
Ascertaining from census reports the val¬
ue of farm lauds and number of acr< s, the
average value per acre, improved and unim¬
proved, and reducing the values for 187w
to gold for comparison with those of 1800,
we may form some estimate of the losses
other than in number of acres occupie i
The loss in tilth average value per acre was
in Virginia and West Virginia, $2 off,or 20
percent;"in Kentucky, $171,or 11 percent:
in Texas, 83 cents, or 22 percent; in lY-..
nessee, $-1 10, or 30 per cent; in F'ov'.da,
$2 23, or 40 per cent: in North Onioliti.i
$2 84, ur 47 per Cent; in Georgia, q-’ i. .,
of 40 per cent; in Arkansas, $5 32, or 50
per cent; in Alabama, $5 40, or 00 per
cent; in Mississippi, $7 01, or 58 percent:;
in Louisiana, $13 20, or 00percent; and in
South Carolina, $5 03,or 00 percent. Such
averages per acre, improvedand unimprov¬
ed indicate an enormous depreciation in
the actual value per acre of improved
lands. Meanwhile, according to the same
tost, the average in Missouri has risen
$3.04 per acre, or nearly 30 per cent, in
gold value. decline
It may be supposed that, the in
agriculture diminished m these States is due the only to
the production of few
great crops formerly raised mainly by
slave labor. But statistics show a gene¬
ral decrease in products. Wo find, com¬
paring the crops of 18(10 and 1870, not
only a loss of 1,300,000 bales of cotton,
but of 2,000,000 pounds pounds of wool; not only
a iums of 170,000,000 of tobacco,
but of 15,000,000 pounds of butter—oue
fourth of the production in 1806—570,000
pounds of cheese; not only a loss of 107,
000,000 pounds of sugar and 8,000,000
gallons of molasses, but of 21,000,000
bushels of potatoes, nearly one-half of the
crop of 1860 in those States; not only a
loss of 113,000,000 pounds ol rice, but of
8,000,000 bushels of wheat, 500,000 bush¬
els of rye, 110,000 tons of hay, 53,000
tons of homp, and 100,000,000 bushels of
corn! In view of a decrease in produc¬
tion so general Southern and so startling, depreciate is it
stirange that farms in
value, that half the wealth of these great
agricultural States has vanished, aud that
one-tliirteenth of the entire population
has already fled from a region so blessed
by nature and so cursed by man?
Thus far we have condensed the start¬
ling exhibit made by the correspondent of
the Tribune. We have not time to fol¬
low him through tho array of figures
which lie presents showing a loss cf popu¬
lation, etc. He perceived the effect, but
seems to lie blind to the cause, lie is
startled at. the decay of these great com¬
monwealths, but ho is puzzled to know
what has oceusioued it, and he casts
about in a sort of a maze to discover the
solution. It is written in every figure he
has adduced, every deduction that he has
made. It is bad government. It is the
effect of the knavish rule of the ear
pet-bagger anil the scalawag. It is the
effect of a movement on the part of
the Federal Government to bring about
negro supremacy in the South. It is the
result of the President's policy of keeping
adventurers in office against the wishes of
the people. It is the offspring of the per¬
secution and proscription instituted by tho
Federal judiciary at the Sou. u. In one

An intelligent gentleman who has lived
in the southern part of Texas informs the
Shreveport Times that “he has seen the
practice of building fires at night in and
around cotton fields, for the destruction
of the miller, put into successful opera
tion there. " The Times says “it will i.ot
do to “ r 8«« that the millers are in too
timbers to be destroyed. They are
greatly disproportioned to the number of
worms, for it has been estimated that one
miller will will produce three hundred or
more. Any planter going through hi:
