TTo ro- tect him in all his rights to property, lib erty and happiness.” Some pleasantry arose as to the cap ture of Col. Fannin, by the Union forces and his treatment by Col LaGrange. Col. Fannin skid that on the occasion of the. passage of the Union army through hi3 vicinity, the freedmen on his place hid l.is stock and took care of all his valua bles, thus demonstrating their attachment. Judge Bigham said he had a man, rais ed with him, who was working away from home, and who* knowing he was away, upon hearing of tlu). approach of Gen. Wilson, went two hundred miles by rail, home, to be with his family and as sist them; that he was intelligent, could road and write, but consulted him upon all that concerned liis welfare, since he was free; and treated him with the utmost kindness, deference and consideration.— He reciprocated h:s attachment, and as a general thing the attachment between freedmen and their former owners was touching to contemplate. Tiie Georgians were very much pleased with their interview with Secretary Har lan, who also expressed gratification. They went next to the Department of Agriculture, where they had an agreea ble interview with Hon. Isaac Newton, and perfected arrangements for the dis tribution of seed, to the people of their State. Mr. Newton playfully remarked tiiat if it was left to him and tlie agriculturalists of the country, the work of reorganiza tion would soon be perfected. It was replied that the interchange of such civilities and mark of care for the good of the people, as emanated from his departin', nt would have great influence.— One of the gentlemen said, “You will have to send the tidies some nice pres ents, for they were, many of them, the most uncompromising rebels we had.” “Yes,” said he “and they, will lead you all in trie path of duty, too, and set you a good example of love to the Union of their fathers. At all events, leave ’ me the names of some of the fair daughters of Georgia, and 1 will send lln-in some choice varieties of garden and llowerseed. We are expecting a large order from Eu rope in a few days, aud will remember them when it arrives.” Thus the Georgians had a»good time of it, and another link was wielded in the chain of reorganizing patriotism. head of the freedmen’s bureau.

He said there had already been a great change in that particular; that when set at liberty the negroes had flocked to onr little country towns and thronged our cities, but that now .they were returning to their old homes fcnd settling down to the idea, that they must like all other members of society, to be useful, work; that they regarded their former owners as their best friends, and in most cases they were. In this opinion Jud"-e Bigham expressed his concurrence, and said:—“By the time to which you look forward with so much concern, arrives, Mr a Secretary, our Convention will have met, and likewise our Legislature, and I have no doubt bnt that a good, safe code he feels as if a peck of spiders waz a i ^ . t &n( j liberal laws will have been crawlin up his backl -I j rame d.

Dur ing his administration he was opposed by Southern States chiefly because of his in fractions of the Constitution in the use of “war powers.” He claimed powers for the Federal Government which the jealous partisans of the South would not concede. Those who led the opposition to John Ad ams w.ere intrenched behind thc residua ry powers secured by tiie Constitution — Tiiey declared then, as the Ohio Democra cy declare now-, that these residuary pow ers were intended to prevent the estab lishment of a consolidated instead of a Federal Government. Thereupon the Vir ginia Legislature in 1798 passed resolu tions condemning the alien and sedition laws, and other measures calculated to makefile federation a nationality Plant ing themselves on a “plain sense and in tention” of the Constitution; and holding it lo be a compact among equals, they declared that in case of'a deliberate, pal pable and dangerous exercise, of powers not granted, the States should interpose and “maintain within their respective lim its the authorities, rights and liberties ap pertaining, to them.” The Kentucky res olutions were even more emphatic. They allowed to the State—to “each party an equal right to judge for itself, as well ot the infractions as the mode and measnre ’ of redress.” These are the troths con cerning onr policy, upheld by the fathers of democracy, Madison and Jefferson.— They are sufficient for onr salvation. The Ohio democracy have blazoned them on fts baLner. They stand, therefore, as a bea con to all other Spates and all other de mocracies. They are the only guarrantee for our future ^content and peace. Con solidation will bring only- discontent to the people ai*d again embroil the States. Whether the question be tariff, excise or taxing of stocks; whether slavery be ig nored or not (for slavery is not now the “dangerous element,”) these elemental principles must rule, or the alternative will be*ruin and chaos. In his late speech before the Massachu setts State Convention, Gen. Butler took the ground that the “ South has forfeited its political rights.” When he was in N. Orleans he took the ground that the peo ple uf the South had forfeited their silver spoons—and it was afterward found tc he true. There is ground for hope thar the “ rights” (not being convertible) are more likely to be returned than the silver ware. - - .
