OBr leaders to-day a "Critical
Notice” of this publication, by Hon.
Charles Beemelin, taken from the Cin
cinnati Commoner, of the 9th insL, in
which it appeared The beat eridenoe of
our full appreciation of tSe closing re
marks of Hr. Beemelin in his review of the
pamphlet is our rqplpduetion of his entire
^MWM»#i.tftthe two points eu which |
he dMala opinion from the views pre
sented in the pamphlet, we think it pro
per to submit a few remarks:
First: He objdkts to the eiastidca
tion of law as given in the pamphlet
This general classification is into Muni
cipal, Federal and Tntsrnatimul Law.
The objection of Hr. Beemelin to this
classification seems to he founded entire
ly upon the grounds that it is new, and
not in oonformity to wbat are considered
standard authorities on the subject
Vattel, for instance, as well as Grot*fend,
Heftier, and Klueber (later German writ
ers) he says, considered Federal Laic, in
tMr afassttcation, ass branch of Inter
national Lav. In reply to this, wo have
only to say that Vattel, and the writers
to whom he refers, did not mean by Fed
eral Ism,tM is meant by it, and what
it is dtftUtfioDO in the pamphlet. The
truth is, nothing of the character of Fed
eral Law, as defined in tbo pamphlet ex
isted when Vattel wrote. This neic fea
ture in Government therefore, and new
kind qf lair, (springing from it) re-
quaped a name and a classification not bo-
fore known in political or legal nomen
clature.
This was the neu> feature presented iu
the American Federal Union — (of author
itihg, in the Constitution, the Fetleral
Government to cxerciso direct leg
islative powers on specified subjects,
over tho civil conduct of the citizens of
the several Stetoa composing the Union)
—which so excited the admirntion of
DcTocqnoville, and for which he said
there was no proper name. It was this
new feature which also so exoited the ml-
miration of Lord Brougham.
Now, the definition of Federal Law
in the pamplilot, does not refer to the
compact of Union l>ctween the States, to
which Vattel refers, and which is very
truly within the purview of the Law of
Nations, as he states, but to those leyitlatiee
acts qf the Federal law-making jioirer,
which regulate, to a limiteil extent, the civil
conduct qf the cilitcnt qf the eeteral State*.
This woe feature in the American systom
is what DeTooqueville said required a neir
tiame, and, of course, a new classification.
This new name and neic ctassifi.cation is
wbat is given to it, iu the pamphlet
While it was not expected that this ad-
vanoe step in political or legal nomencla
ture would pass without criticism (as no
snch advance step ever docs in uny De
partment of Knowledge), yet, wo must
confess, that more apprehension wus
felt from objections, on the grounds that
Federal Law, as dafinod in the pam
phlet, should bo considered as a branch
of the Municipal laws of the several
States, than from the objection of Mr.
Beemelin, that it should be considered os
a branch -of International law.
We feel well assured, however, that tho
more the subject is discussed and studied,
the abre general^ .will it bp seen ami
nokttbtrledgef thtiriho definition find
eladsiAeathtn "in vhfi pamphlet, though
both neic, are both right
Hr. Bsemelin is in a slight error in
stating that the pamphlet attributes to
Lord Brougham, the assertion that "our
wonderful system" "is mainly dne to the
genius of Thomas Jefferson." That is the
statement of Uia author of the pnmphlgt
hiiCff. fie onttfiive idea at the whtlr
ajaU oJUfrXm 7 the brai/of Mr. Jef
ferson, and was first embodied in "lan
gaaged thought,” (so far as the author
of Uia paiapWet has been able to dieooeer,

are not thorn "oompteta," from which
Federal Law emanates. Ion nded upon the
“natural tight*" of then free States,
aa clearly shown in the pamphlet? Is
not its source, therefore, natural right?
We can bat think that upon a reconside
ration of the subject,-J^r. ltaamotin wifi
aee that thif- doctrines of the pamphlet
are correct jo maintaining that the source
of aU just human laws, and the basis
upon which they rest, (whether Municipal,
Federal or International, pr in whatever
other classification they may be ar
ranged) is natural right. JL H. 8.

We clip the abovo from tho Chronicle
and Sentinel (Augusts, Ga.,) of the 14th
iuat. We have not seen the issue of the
Savannah Republican from which the
Chronicle gad Sentinel mode the extract
But Why either of our oo temporaries
referred to should reproduce these few
disconnected words from “a recent" Edi
torial of Hr. Stephens in The Sun, with
the accompanying comments made upon
i, is a matter of some surprise to us.
The object wc do not understand; but we
have no hesitancy in saying, Hint these
words, if reproduced at all, should have
been given in their proper connection, if
Ike purpose was to represent Hr. Ste
phens fairly, either as to what he lias
been making "a hard fight' for, or
his position in that “fight" from the
beginning to tho present time. From
the comments made, the purpose seems
to be to impress the pnblio mind with tlie
idea tliat Hr. Stephens, in “arecenl” Edito
rial, has modified, to Bomo extent, at least,
the position at first taken and heretofore
maintained by him. If that realty was
the object, we have only to reproduce these
words with thoir abutext, in the "recent
Editorial" alluded to, and compare them
with tho words used by Mr. Stephens in
his 'fiiwt Editorial on taking charge of tho
political columns of The Sun.
Tho words in the “recent" Editorial
otauds thus t
“fraudulent amendment*" w* existing faett, while the
administration of tha Government la in tho hand*
of thoae who are clothed with power to enforce
thorn i hut who do not endorse them wm finals tin. Wo
hail wm friend* all thoae who acquiesce in them an tie
facto, but uot Ur jure part* of the organic law.
Now wherein does this language vary
from tho position assumed by Mr. Ste
phens in his Salutatory, of tho 17th June,
when he Minted :
With regard to tho pant usurpation* and revolu
tionary measure* of I'ougre**, finer the restoration
of the Union in 1866, by the resumption of their
obligation* to the Union under the Constitution, by
all tho RtaU'M which had attempted to withdraw
from it, and for the prevention of which attempt
alone, the war was professed to have been waged
against them. Th* Bon willodrlw and ei\foin utrlat
obedience to all aett of ('ongren and acts of State leg
islature* noth r them, which have the/onur of law, a*
expounded by tho Court*, Htate and Federal
enforced by tbown la wutbortty, clothed with ]»>*
execute them.
After atari ug how those usurpations
could bo rectified in a peaceful manner,
by a resort to tho proper inalrumeulalUlea
of tho Constitution, tho Salutatory wont
on to say:
» people devoted to Constitutional law
expect to secure a rectification of admitted
iih of jtowpr, by granting, in advaiu
general absolution to the perpetrators of them.
Now wo submit to our cotemjxiraries,
uud to all readers, whether there is any
diffcreuco ns to our position iu the mat-
tor of acquiescence in, and giving strict
obedience to, ntl tho acts of Congress hav
ing tho form* of law—even tho “fraudu
lent amendments”—bo long n« they,
fad, shall bo held to lie law, by those in
authority, clothed with power to execute
them; between the “recent Editorial” and
tho first, or any other ever penned by us?
What wo want, in all discussions on
these subjects, is fair dealing on tho part
of tliodo who may differ with us.
But if tho Savannah Republican aud
Chronicle and Sentinel really think there
is “very little difference” between us and
“tho people we are fighting,” then wo
say to them, they had better wake up from
their slumber, aud learn something more
of the momentous issues involved in the
controversy, than they now seem to bo
aware of. It is the difference between
simply obeying and conforming to an
nnoonatitntional measure, so long os it
is enforced by those clothed with power
to oxccutc it, but with a protest against
its justice or validity, by one party; and
tho acceptance and imbrtemenl of the
iniquitous measure, by another,
with the declaration that it in all
just and right, and should never
horoaf ter be questioned or even discussed.
Tho “peoplo” we are “fighting” wish the
Democratic Party not only to iH*aecahly
acquiesce in these Radical usurjmtions, so
long os tho present Dynasty is clothed
with power to execute them; but to give
their solemn sanction to their validity,
rightfuluesN and continuance for all time
to come. This is a difference which,
ttiink, “tho people wo are fighting” look
upon as oue of very great importance in
view of the objects they are aiming at
that is, the centralization of tho Peoples
of these States into one Consolidated
Empire; and hence tho earnestness with
whieh they “fight” us. It is no “twee
dledee” and “tweedledum” business,
either with them or us, os much as our
haH a-aloep ootomporuries of Savannah
and Augusta may he disposed so to eon
sidcr it A. H. S.

Critical Notice—Alexander H.
Stephens on the Study of the
UY C.
There are persons whose apparel is bo
•Indionsly proper as to attract attention
to the slightest spot, and so there are
public i»er»oii8 whose onimoua are usu-
•Qy no rightful as to make the least de
viations from truth conspicuous. Mr.
Stephens, of Georgia, is 6uch a public
man, and his letter to his law students,
of which we have a copy before 11% lse
piece of writing open to Such a notice.
The author aud the pupils addressed are
persons of distinction, aud the subieot is
of great importance; moreover it is dis
cussed with great ability, and if space
permitted it, we should spread it before
onr leaden. As things stand, we must
coniine ourselves to the less agroeable
task, that ol pointing out thorn portions
that deserve correction in our opinion.
The find we will notice is the classifies
tion of fate into three branches, viz: mu
uicipal, federal and international law.
OomiMjaing criminal, commercial and
other civil law branches under municipal
law, hs u the sanction of Blackstono, and
though we think it a defective classifica
tion, ret wo shall not animadvert on it,
beoauae no sanctioned, anil for the further
reason, tliat it does not do much harm. It
is otherwise with tho separation of feder
al law from international law, for that
subdivision deprives the student of the
fundamental truth, that federal law if an
integral part of tho international law,
and it must be studied from that basis.
Vattel divides international law into
threo kinds—(vide \ 27,) to-wit: volunta
ry, conventional and customary, and he
saya: “They all proceed from the voli
tion of nations, tne voluntary law from
their presumed consent; tho congression
al law from an e^peets consent; and the
customary law from a tacit consent.” lie
adds by way of caution tliat he “care
fully distinguishes from them the natu
ral or necessary law of nations,” and ho
/artlic-rmere, Jor further warning, says:
“As to tho laws introduced by treatu-s,
there is no room to fear that any one will
confound them with tho natural law of
nations.” Federal law is conventional,
or treaty made international law; it ii
jus strictum, that is to sry, it requires
the express consent of tho Htatcs or no
tions. It differs from all other law iu
this, that it is not obligatory on any
body, unless the express consent of a
State or nation can be shown for it In
short, using Vattel’s words, “it is not a
universal, but a particular law.”
Mr. Htet)hen8 loses sight of this dis
tinction when he says, after dividing law
into the three departments, as already
stated:
“These several departments of law all
emanate from the sumo source, and
rest upon the same basis—that of natu
ral right.”
The law-writers of Germany avoid this
mistake. Qroteteud, the latest federal
jurist, kujh:
“The compacts that create federal law
emanate from conventions of indepen
dent and mutually free States, and fed
eral law appears only as international
law—it is a part of the positive inter
national law.
“Tho sources of federal law must
never be assumed to be the principles of
general, philosophic (natural) law, nor
tho scientific deductions therefrom.”
lb titer, also a German federal Jurist,
says: “Federal law is pure treaty law; it
is not made by a higher legislative au
thority; hence it is not to be completed
or added to from general principles of
civil law, nor to be construed like other
laws, hut us international treuties.”
Klueber, who wrote a very good book
on international law, says:
“That general or natural civil law, or
legal analogies drawn therefrom, can be
federal law, is an oft-repeated error of
doctrine.”
These extracts, aud their application to
tho history of federal politics in this
country, will satisfy every one that we
must even deny that tho source of federal
luw is “natural right.”
We may readily admit that universal
international law has for its basis natural
reuson; and Vattel says so in his terms;
for he declares that it is “common to the
whole human race,” while federal law
applies only to the nations or States ex
pressly creating it, by erecting a Federal
Union.
Our revolutionary Congress declared
tho new-born Federal Union subject to
the law of nations, and by this, the
grandest act of our then newly-United
States, they recognized themselves bound,
as to all other countries, by tho natural
reason of maukind, or if the words of
Mr. Ktephens suit better, by tho nuturul
right evolved and recorded in the univer-
fim law of nations; but wlicu several years
thereafter they made the Constitution of
tho United States, they made a particu
lar international law or treaty, or federal
law, by which their conduct between the
States of the Union was to bo regulated.
Our readers will now seowhy we are so
tenacious of tho distinctions presented in
the foregoing remarks, and they will also
perceive why wc except further to the
following passage iuMr. Stephens’ letter:
“The government of the United States
preseuts tho federal form iu greater per
fection, than it was iu any model of the
kiud over before exhibited.”
The history of our Uniou shows, that
this very government had hardly been
born, before a schism arose between tho
best jurists of tho land, which finally
gathered them into two parties, respect
ively under tho lead of Adams and Ham
ilton, or Jefferson and Madison aud
which parties continued oven after
amendments had been made, that were
meant to cure tho defects, especially Ar
ticles ix and x. This schism ended in
an inter-Statc war, aud that has now
landed us in complete anarchy as to any
legitimate construction of our United
St.ites Constitution. Nor need wo go far
to find the fountain of all the strife! It
flowed from the imperfectly understood
nature of federal law. The framers of
federal government were excellent
jurists in municipal (English) law, and
they were fomilinr with tho law of na
tions, but they did not know, that
federal law is particular international
law, and must be treated as a special
branch of the law ofr nations. This ig
norance continued through all our ad
ministrations, including specially that of
Lincoln.
We have liefore us, ns we write, Mr.
Stephens’ book on the Constitution of
the United States, and also Reimann’s
excellent work on “The Transition of the
United States of North America froma
States-Union to a Union State,” whioh
latter worfc contains a history of the Con
vent ion that framed our federal Constitu
tion, aud these books indicate to us very
plainly, how the Convention groped along
without the beacon light, which a true
knowledge of federal law would have
given it; and how it finally took tho fatal
leap into the dark by stepping beyond
the fundamental logic of federal law.
They took that fatalleap under tho pre
sumption, so flattering to their pride,
that they wcr« going to improve federal
law by stepping beyond it, and by mix
ing with it municipal, natural, commer
cial ami other law Alexander Hamilton
shows us how clouded his otherwise dear
intellect was, when he said :
“A nation without a national govern
ment is an awful 8]>ectacle! The estab
lishment of a constitution iu time of pro
found peace by tho voluntary consent of
a whole people, is a prodigy, to the com
pletion of which I look forward with
trembling auxiety.”
The words Nation—national Govern
ment—whole i>eoplo, iuv significant indi
cations of tbo {Status of his mind. He
bail some instincts about federal law, but
uo real erudition. His acknowledged
model was the British government, but
it was also that of Washington, Franklin,
Madison, though they disliked it, aud re
fused therefore to become conscious of
the law reasoning which guided all their
States.
Washington was ouce carried away,
and called the United States Govern
ment “tho grandest model of a confed
crated republic,” and Mr. Stephens
quotes tliis remark, bat the real opinion,
tlio oue with which he died, was that our
federal constitution was an experiment.
Nor does Mr. Stephens help tho mat
ter when ho gives us Brougham s words,
that “to Thomas Jcffewon’s genius this
wonderful system is mainly due.” We
know l>cttcr on this sido of tho Atlantic ;
for Jefferson’s merit consists simply in
tho efforts ho made, after our Coustitn-
tion was framed, to moke our Union
retilly federal, and to instill into it sound
federal law. Mr. Jefferson succeeded in
establishing a party that, amidst much
weakness, adhered rather faithfully to on
approximately true federal luw; hut the
constitution contained too much munici-
pal or civil .law, and eatablislicd too
pointedly . civil government, to ever al
low Jefferson’s construction of tlie con
stitution to be adopted by tbc whole
country; it was merely thi platform of a
party. •
And for the cause of this political phe
nomenon, we mast take into uocouut the
antecedents, of our federal Union. IVe
arc at least in origin, more British, than
we ore any other Europcauism, and nine-
tenths of onr education bus ever hail anil
has still its rod ’U the British Isles.—
Our jurisprudence especially, is essential
ly English. We established iu theory a
federal Union, but in practice, we cod
tinued British politics. We are an ex
emplification of Professor Uaering's doc
trine, that all life is bat conscious or un
conscious memory, aud British memories
are still alivo all through this people.—
Our population never was federal in its
spirit; federal law was always entertained
by but a few, and by these few imper
fectly.
ft We have, in the foregoing, done tow
ards Mr. Stephens, what small men would
regard as a mortal offense, bat we know
that the Statesman and jurist of Geor
gia will not so regard it. He knows our
devotion to federal institutions and will
accept our strictures os a tribute to his
title to be the leader of the friends of
States rights. Even minor error beoomes
vital in lum, and for that reason wc have
objected to the doctrine, that “natural
right” is the source of federal law.
