GOVERNMENT.
We conclude in this number what we de
sired to say, at present on the subject ot
government. England is the fairest speci
men in Europe of the kingly form. The
jxditiciaus of that country boast of the
freedom ot the people and yet, at tills very
moment, wo see how they are oppressing
the Irish; denying to them the privilege to
bear arms and authorizing their houses to
be searched at any hour of the day or
night. Our thoughts shall be confined to
Republican institutions. France is now a
Republican government and yet, at this
vory time, some of her people, at a few
hours notice, aro driven from their country
because of their religious opinions and
journalists aro lined and imprisoned if
they dare to speak unfavorably of ttie
President or other officials. Let it be
borne in mind that Franco is a centralized
Republic, such as the Republicans of this
country are seeking to make of our Confed
eracy <>f States.
Is it not absolutely true that political
opinions, in this country, which were form
erly adopted upon the clauses of a written
constitution, framed upon and by the con
sent of tlie people of free sovereign and in
dependent States—nations in truth as they
were—are now solved by the passions of a
large portion or the people, or their sup
posed interests, without regard to the com
pact of Union, or the bargain which they
made, cemented and confirmed by the
sanctity of oaths. This condition of things
is at once humiliating and frightful.
Within the first century of the existence
of the confederation, nothing, laid down iu
the compact of Union, was safe from vio
lence—no right was sacred against tiie ef
frontery of the most revolting injustice.
The facts, to prove tills, we have repeated
ly presented and instead of being disputed
by argument, liavo been met by mockery
and derision. Nearly, if not quite, every
northern State, passed "Liberty Bills," as
they ware called, to prevent the en
forcement of a plain provision of the con
stitution conferring the right to reclaim
fugitive slaves escaping into Northern
States. This was a plain profanation of the
national honor. John Brown, who sought
to excite the southern slaves to murder
their owners and burn their dwellings,
they have made a martyr, and to this day
ho is held to be a saint in the Northern po
litical and religious church. Subsequent
ly, without a shadow of right, the majority
of the States made war uponithe minority
for seeking safety out-of a Union so de
spicably profaned, when New York and
every other State reserved the right to
withdraw and take their original places as
nations of the earth, should they deem it
necessary for their safety and happiness.
We pass over ail the atrocious acts of re
construction, so memorably known alike
to the people of the South ami North and
all of the civilized nations of the earth.
Political, moral and social comity demand
ed of the people of the North, who intro
duced olavery into this country to leave
that question to the operation of polemical
and moral discussion for ils ultimate solu
tion. Thero wero men in the South who
believed slavery to be a wrong, still it was
recognized by the constitution which was
framed for the people of all the sovereign
states. It was not so great a wrong as the
burning of poor creatures in the north as
witches. Some of the slaves wero subjec
ted to tlio lash for supposed disobedience.
So were soldiers in the armies of every civ-
illzed nation. Our writers and orators
wrote and spoke eloquently of Ancient
Greece and Rome, magnifying their achiev-
ments in arts and arms and their devotion
to liberty and human rights, but never de
nounced them for their institutions of
slavery (most of the slaves being white
instead of black,) sixty millions of whom
were in bondage when Jesus Christ was
upon the earth. Neither he nor his apos
tles ever denounced the institution ns be
ing "a league with hell and a covenant with
death", as did the northern abolitionists
or this country. They taught the slavos to
bo obedient to their masters.
The question may be reasonably asked,
why did not the people of the north reason
with the people of the South and submit to
the constitution, until public sentiment
should be ready for their release from sla
very? Why did they not propose to pur
chase their freedom. They, once, wero
slaveholders and what did they do? They
brought their slaves to the South, sold
them, pocketod the money and sneaked
back to their northern homes to villiTy the
very people to whom they had sold them!
We do not hesltato to Say that ono-half of
the money expended by the North and the
South, during tho war, would have set free
every slave In the South. Why did they
not try nn' "al suasion and the persuasive
power of money. They seemed to have
preferred the most gigantic system of
robbery that is recorded in the annals of
history—tho sweeping from tlieir brothers
in the South of at least two billions of dol
lars at one foil stroke. The English set
free their slaves by paying for tliem, buf
in this American land hundreds of thous
ands were reduced to penury by the war,
unauthorized by the constitution, stamped
Indelibly with the crimes of injustice and
perjury.
We have referred to these facts and
could cite many more to show what cen
tralism can do. These acts were centralis
ts usurpations. Why need we show fur
ther the dangers of a centralized union. If
theee crimes were committed by centrai-
l»m, without authority, what may we not
•xpect should centralism be acknowledged
* 8 "*• rightful characteristic of the Gov
ernment? Does the reader comprehend
the force of the argument? Does he see
the danger that threatens? We desire to
impress upon all our readers the nature of
this change, and, if persisted in, the dread
ful results which will ultimately follow.
We cannot shut our eyes to the facts al
ready alluded to, and, in them, we see noth
ing but that which is unfavorable to free-
■dom. Already has our Federal Govern
ments gone ahead of any European Gov
ernment in acts of atrocious tyranny. It
is moving In its aphelion from the old revo
lutionary doctrine, from the sun of freedom
which glowed in splendor, warmth and
glory, upon the thirteen new nations of
this American continent. If not checked
in its wild wandering course it will reach a
period of obscuration, in ruins, as fatal as
those of ancient Greece and Rome. Tho
party and the men who have inaugurated
this change have caught their ideas from
the despotisms of Europe, and with them
believe, that the people are incapable of
self government. But the people must lie
kept down, and to do that large military
forces must be kept under arms in every
section of this vast country. We are not a
prophet, nor the son of a prophet, but we
have as much rigiit to prophecy as any one
else, and we tell you now, that in less than
fifty years under a centralized govern
ment, additional taxation will be Imposed
upon you to maintain a standing army of
five hundred thousand men. We shall be
dead and gone, but we ask sucii as arc liv
ing now and may be living then, to remem
ber this prophetic warning.
A many beaded tyranny is worse tiian a
single one. The paramount authority,
claimed for a majority of States, will soon
er or later give rise to anxiety and turbu
lence in other States, and this will afford a
pretext for the equipment of a hundred
thousand men. This of itself will create
additional excitement. Popular institu
tions will grow weaker and weaker. The
money kings of the country, fearful of
revolution will favor the ambitious tyrants.
To effect this, the acute and crafty leaders
of the centralistic power, will hint at stars
and garters, dukedoms and earldoms, and
other high-sounding and glittering titles.
What are the Republican leaders, now, but
cunning casuists and ingenious sophists
in political matters. It has bean by crafty
arts, alone, that millions of people havo
been misled from the cardinal principles of
our original institutions. These wily lead
ers will advocate general education, meas
ures to increase the weaitli and commerce
of the country. They will favor the con
struction of railroads, the digging of ca
nals, the improvement of rivers and har
bors. They will foster tho interests of tho
agriculturists as far as legislation can ef
fect it and they will be the most outspoken
and blatant defenders of liberty so far as
words can go; and why ail this? To gain
the popular esteem, and add to their le-
sources, for more extended taxation. The
more money they can gain, the greater will
be their power, the larger their armies and
the greater their ability to check resis
tance to their centralizing policy. When
the people are prosperous, have a plenty
to eat and money to meet their varied
wants, they are not so .apt to tie on their
guard about their rights; and a self-satis
faction may causo them to imagine that
everything is working right though their
political liberties may be slowly and surely
becoming more unsafe. Many do not re
member that there is a difference between
political and civil rights. The people of a
State might really enjoy satisfactory civil
rights, under an administration which de
nies them political rights. Mr, Garfield
may be kind and friendly to tho people of
Georgia, whilo denying the sovereignty
which they claim. We have extended our
article beyond the allotted limits and will
add only two or three points that are ne
cessary to givo fuller force and vigor to tho
thoughts we wished to express.
One is, wo cannot admit that our fore
fathers Intended to strip themselves of the
robes of sovereignty. They fought and
bled and died, in vain, if that is done. The
people of the colonies united to fight for the
separate independence of each. The king
of England treated with each (not all in a
body,) for the separate nationality of each
one. They established free government for
themselves and entered into a bargain as
free States. No man can show tiiat either
one of them ever yielded its sovereignty
to the majority of States. Without the
possession of that sovereignty, tho Slates
cannot enjoy tho pleasure which a con
sciousness of freedom bestows, and will
sink into a degree of hopeless scivilitv.
They will bend the proud crest of inde
pendence to the bidding of a master,
whethor hvdra-headcd or single-headed.
No patriotism or wisdom can supply the
proud place of their own; the spirit of lib
erty droops, however mild and merciful
may be the civil service of the master. To
each state, the government becomes as ar
bitrary as that of a monarch. One admin
istration may rule benificiently, another
unkindly. There will not be a succession
of Tituses and Antonines. Caligulas and
Neros will sometimes bo at the head, and
thus history will repeat itself and proud
America will sink into degradation and
ruins.
Of all absurdities that is the greatest to
suppose that absolute rulers, whether sin
gle or many, will be wise or patriotic. Wo
can see no redeeming feature in centraliza
tion, nothing but dangerous and discor
dant elements to weaken and finally under
mine our democratic Institutions.
PRESIDENT GARFIEL»*8 INAUGURAL
ADDRESS.
The last week’s cotton receipts are as
tounding. There wero received 137,755
bales, against G4,264 for tho same week
last year; showing an increase of 73,491
bales! This has had tho effect of reducing
the price materially. The best informed
now put the crop of tho last year at about
C,200,000 bales. Farmers can seriously
think of this before putting in a heavy crop
of cotton this year.

Strawberries in New York are six dollars
a quart
lire. Garfield is the only mother who has
witnessed a sou’s inauguration.
While we admit the ability displayed in
Mr. Garfield’s inaugural speech, we are
forced to the conclusion that he is ignorant
of tho true history of our political institu
tions, or, for party purposes, or the main
tenance of the new views of the Republican i
part}', misrepresents the facts illustrative
of their original formation. We never read ]
a document, emanating from a professed
American Statesman, so full of gross mis- j
statements and absurdities. Ho speaks of I
the first century of our “National Life”
as “crowded with perils but crowned with
triumphs of liberty and law.” If wo have
read, rightly, the history of the Ancient
Roman Republic, it did not commit as ma
ny acts of atrocious violence of the princi
ples of liberty, and as many corrupt de
partures from law, in five hundred years
as occurred in the first century of the ex
istence of the so-called United States of
America. Wo want all of our readers to
know that tho writer of this article was
not born in a foreign land, but was born
and raised on a plantation in the county of
Wilkes, in tho State of Georgia. We desire
to assume tho full responsibility for what
we may say, and leave no pretext for any
one to say that tho author was born or
raised in a foreign land. Does not Mr.
Garfield know that the constitution, under
which we live and which was framed in
1787 contains this clause'. “No person held
to service or la bor in one State, under the
laws thereof, escaping into another, shall in
consequence of any law or regulation there
in, be discharged from such service or la
bor, but shall be delivered up on claim of
the party to whom such service or labor
may bo due.”
Next; Does he not know that every north
ern free State, so-called, including his
own State, Ohio, enacted penal laws for
bidding the enforcement of this provision
of the constitution?
Again; Does he not know that every
member of those northern legislatures
who passed those liberty bills, as they
were called, and the Governors-who signed
them, took an oatli to support the consti
tution of tho United States? We leave it to
Mr. Garfield to decide for himself whether
they violated their oaths, or not, in sustain
ing those bills.
Still, again; did not Mr. Garfield know'
that New York, Virginia and other States,
in express terms, and all tho States by nec
essary implication when they entered into
the Union under the constitution of 1787,
declared and claimed the right to with
draw' from the Union when they should
deem it necessary for their safety and hap
piness? And yet, ho and others, made war
upon the Southern States for withdrawing
from the Union for that purpose, the right,
to do which, was universally acknowledg
ed.
Does not Mr. Garfield know that two
States refused to enter into the Union un
der tho new constitution, and that their
right to do so, was recognized by the
States which did enter into it?
Mr. Garfield states in substance that the
Slates founu the first Union under the Ar
ticle of Confederation to be “too weak to
meet the necessities of a vigorous and ex
panding republic, they boldly set it aside
and in its stead established a National Un
ion, founded directly upon the will of the
people endowed with full powers of seif
preservation and with ample authority for
the accomplishment of its great objects.”
There is not a word of truth in this weak
statement which he copies from Story and
other writers, who are the founders of the
Republican school. The sole object, in tho
change, was to revise tho articles of con
federation, so as to grant two or three ad
ditional powers to congress, to prevent de
lays by application to the Statos for their
assent to certain measures. All of the
States in agreeingto meet for the ordaining
and adoption of the new constitution, de
clared that there was to be no change in
the character of the Government, that the
Union should continue to be a confedera
tion or sovereign States. But we pass over,
for tho present, tho many facts we could
adduce from the action of the different
States to come to that of their representa
tives in framing tne constitution, and we
may ask: Does not Mr. Garfield know that
the proposition, so persistently rnado to
establish a National Government, was vot
ed down? The convention would not per
mit tho word national to appear in any
clause in the constitution. For certain
purposes they established a Government,
but would not permit it to be called nation
al but simply the Government of tho Uni
ted Statos, and it was adopted not for the
people, but for the States. A few words to
show this. As a preamable the convention,
on tho 7th of August, 1787, adopted tho fol
lowing by a unanimous vote;
We tho people of tho States of New
Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island
and Providence Plantations, Connecticut,
New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Del
aware, 'Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina,
South Carolina and Georgia, do ordain, de
clare anil establish the following constitu
tion etc.
This shows it was done not by the collec
tive body of the people of all the States,
but by the people of each State.
As the constitution was to go into opera
tion If nine States would become members
of the Union, and as it was not known but
that some one or more would prefer to re
main out as independent nations, the phra
seology was changed from, “We the people
ot New Hampshire Ac,” to “We the peo
ple of the United States Ac.” North Caro
lina and Rhode Island did stay out for
some time and It would hare been ridi
culous to have had their names in the pre-
amable when they were not members of
the Union. Now what becomes of Mr. Gar
field's statement that the States abandon
ed the confederation, centralized tho Gov
ernment—and made the Union one nation
instead of a confederation? €
Tlieso were the main points of the ad
dress to which we wished to call attention.
But there are others that we will notice
next week, and what we will say then, is
practically set forth In another^ rticle head
ed “Government” which appears in this
number of our paper. The address is well
written ami shows much sophistical abili
ty.

PELL AGAINST A SHARP EDGE.
This is furnished by Mr. Wm. Will, 1613
Frankford Ave., Philadelphia, Pa.: Some
time since I received a severe injury to my
back, by falling against the sharp edge of a
marble step, the stone penetrating it at
least a half an inch, and leaving a very
painful wound. After suffering for a time,
I concluded io apply St. Jacobs Oil, and
am pleased to say, that the results exceed
ed my expectations. It speedily allayed all
pain and swelling and by continued use,
made a perfect cure. I really think it the
most efficacious liniment I ever used.
