^wnmtsn m TUHWHfH, Wth NoTember, 1871.
senator Morton Smoothing Uis
War <4 imaperUtlism.
Ttt, Morton delivered s lecture in
PittvUeoae last Bhtarday evening. It
was an inaidioua argument, by Preaident
Grant'a ohief ooanaelior and champion,
fur toeaking down alt barriers to tha es
tablishment of a oentraliaed imperial
deepotism in tho United States.
'Ac Stic given by Senator Morton to
hit address is
“TUB NATIONAL IDEA,”
and ita profeaaed object is to oornbat the
doctrine of “Bute sovereignty.” This
was a aingnlar choice of a subject. The
events ol the fact ten or twelve years
have identified BUte sovereignty in the
popular mind with nnlliftoation, seces
sion, and rebellion, and have covered it
with so much odium that rational and
temperate defenders of SUU rights
shrink from going beyond the printed
text of the Constitution for arguments.
To argon against the old Southern doc
trine at present would aesm aa needless
aa to throat the body of a dead soldier
With bayonets. But the ooafldential
champion of Ulyaaea the First known
what he U about Entertaining no donbt
of Grant'a re-election, he tbinka thia oc
casion opportune for taking advantage
of the settled hostility of onr people to
seoeesiau, and pushing the duo trine .of
Federal aopremaoy to its utmost extreme,
with a view to eleotiug Grant for a third
fan, wad Anally reconciling the people
to
a central duputum.
I tor the purt«ae of atretohing the
auti-8UU •euuni.rot to extravagant
lengths, than can be no explanation of
Mr. Morton’s choioe of a subject and hia
overstrained invectives against Bute sov-
mUg*M- The following extract from his
lecture gives the gist of tbe new theory :

CENTRAL AUTHORITY.
He, at least, made an odd odlootion of a
plsoe for promulgating this new gospel of
centralism. It 00 hsppofis tint Rhode
Inland afford* a decisive ted of tbe
soundness of hi* doctrine. Fora period
of fifteen months after tbe organization
of tbe Federal Government and the
inauguration of Washington, Rhode
Inland stood outside of tbe Union ami
acted as an independent nation. Both
Rhode Island and North Carolina were
treated as sneb in tbe early legislation of
Congress; as witness, for example, tlx
following section of an act passed Sep
tember 16, 1769:
Hoc. S. And be it farther matted, That *11 rani, loaf
•agar and chocoUU, manufacture! or made in Un

deace mentation*, and imported into the United
,Stales, ehall ha deemed aad taken to he mibject to
like dotief Mgood* of the Use kinds Imported from
any forWjn state, kingdom or country.
Not even Mr. Mcrtox will maintain
that the Federal Government had any
authority or jurisdiction over Rhode Is
land, until she at least came, by her own
voluntary consent, into the Union. Dur
ing the period while she stood outside,
she was an independent, sovereign na
tion, treated a* nob by tbe Federal gov
ernment, From whenoe did she derive
her tovereign rights? Not from tbe Fed
end Constitution, wbioh she took no part
in framing aad declined to ratify, but
from
ORIGINAL INHERITANCE
through the Declaration of Indepen
dence. If anybody dispates that the
States wen originally aovenign, tbe his
tory of Rhode Island is a conclusive ref
station. She was treated as a sovereign,
independent nation by tbe Federal Gov-
eminent itself. That State is a beautiful
spot for promulgating tbe new doctrine
that tbe States were not originally sov
ereign ! She furnishes tbe very example
by which original State sovereignty
most unanswerably proved.
Mr. Morton aaaeits that tbe Conven
tion of 1787 formed tbe national gov.
eminent In point of fact that Conven
tion merely prepared tbe draft of an in
stroment, wbioh bad no force or validity
until ratified by the separate States,
each of which was just as free to reject
as to adopt it If only eight of tbe thir
teen had ratified it, it would have fallen
still-born. The consent of nine States
was made neoeaaary to tbe organisation
of the new government; and if only nine
had adopted it, tbe remaining fonr would
have been
INDEPENDENT SOVERIIONTIBa.
But according to Mr. Moiton's new im
perial theory, the Convention of 1787
drar u*. dooms* ol awls *oT*roi*at,; ft* as
ad power to bind tbe whole thirteen
States, and grout to them, or withhold
from theng whatever rights it pleased I
A theory whioh is in such glaring oonfiict
with history must have been invented ior
some sinister purpose. Its object is to
take advantage of the prevailing public
soutiment againat secession for absorb
ing all political power into the national
government
Mr..Morton says
It j« not enough lor. pvt j to dour the right or

occasion allows It IT ws were to adatt that tha
Stale* war* aororalta, than wa would be boimd to
say that Wabater did not answer Hayna.
We stand by the doctrine of Web
ster; but Mr. Morton repudiates it. Un-
lik Morton, Webster did not question
that the States were originally sovereign.
Nay, ha admitted and maintained that
they preserved under the Federal Con
stitution all that- part of their sovereign
ty which they did not formally and spe
cifically surrender. Webster's theory
was just tbs reverse of Morton’s. Instead
of making Btate rights a grnnt from tbe
national authority, aa Morton does,
Webstar made the Federal powers a grant
by the people out of the previous sov
ereignty of the States, In that very
speech against Hayne, to whioh Morton
lias the assuranoe to allude, Mr. Webster
said;

Why is not Mr. Morton oontent to rest
in this sound and tenable doctrine of the
igreatest of onr constitutional lawyers?
It it only because he wishes to remove all
obstacles to tbe establishment of a great,
overshadowing, coutral imperialism ou
the rains ot the political system whioh
Mr. Webster expounded and defended.
Nothing else ean explain either tbe un-
of thia strange dieemyae, or
WILD EXTRAVAGANCE
of ita positions. Even if it were true
that tho States have no rights whioh the
general government may not withdraw,
whatoooasion is there for preselling this
doctrine at present, if not to lay the foun-
datiou and prepare the way for the ex
tinction of State rights ?

/ a Co.
The biggest Bing or combination that
ever was formed iu America to operate
upoa a single State, was that of Kimball,
finllock, Blodgett, Henry Clews t Co.,
and those interested in the Brunswick
aad Albany, aud Cortoisville and Vau
Wert Railroad swindles. Clews’ impu-
deut claim deserves the severest rebuke,
and Clews himself deserves punishment
for a conspiracy to defraud the people.
And we are sorry to find that some
person., in Georgia are trying to manu
facture public opinion, and manipulate
the Legislature iuto an allowance of this
claim, and farther to give him all the ad
vantages which tbe unlawful H fraudu
lent acts of the iaat Legislators were in-
tended to oonfer upon Kimball; and tbe
of the Carienville and Van Wert
Railroad.
We rejoice that the day ha* oome when
the people of Georgia will ne longer tol

nected with or benefitted by them.
We shall hereafter give special consid
eration to these Bings, and tke persons

Democratic Convention—Hon.
J. M. Baaitb,
LaGeanoe, December 4, 1871.
Mr. Editor: On Wednesday next a
Democratic Convention assemble*ia year
oity to nominate a candidate for Gover
nor. A responsibility devolves upon that
Convention that cannot be over-estima
ted.
Tlie people of Georgia, aa yell aa the
other Southern State*, have, einee the
war, been robbed and plundend ol mil
lions of dollars by Radical carpet-baggers
and their aiders and abettors, some of
whom are “native and to the manor
born."
Money, almost beyond calculation, ha*
been drawn by Bollook from the Treas
ury, upon warrants bated on tbo famous
“India rubber" section of the Appropria
DEMOCRATIC MEETING IN

CotutTBus, Ga. Dec. 2d, 1871.
A meeting of the Democracy of Mus
cogee was held to-day in the C-nrt
House to appoint delegates to the Dem
ocratic Stat, Convention, to be held in
Atlanta, on Wrdnesday next,to nominate
candidate foi Governor.
On motion of Fon. M. J. Crawford,
A K. Lamar, £*u., was colled to tbe
chair, and Cnpt. W. D. Chipley elected
Secretary.
Judge Crawford offered th* following
resolutions, which were unanimoealy
adopted:
1, Resolved, That it is oar earnest wish
that the Convention, soon to assemble,
may select an naneat, able and perfectly
Ututworthy Democrat aa onr standard
bearer—a man ot integrity, aad devoted
to principle—one who, if eleoted, will
beer himaelf like a true man in bis gnat
office, and who will bring tha adminis
tration of our State government beck to
' e auoiest landmarks of the fathers.
2L Beaolved, That we consider tbe
Hon. James M. Smith, Speaker of the
House of Representatives, sooh a man
a* herein described, aad m Iris friends
and neighbor* who know him well, and
without disparaging the eixinix and qual
ification* of any gentldman whose naaae
ha* been mentioned i* thk connection,
we earnestly propose turn as an emjnent-
oper and saitaM* . parson for I

tion bill, and applied to illegitimate pur
pose*. Property belonging to tbe State,
worth hnndreu* of thousands of
dollars, has been disposed of, un
der pretended claims, aud the proceeds
divided and distributed, “ Nsccm dm
artem" ot a Radical Legislature and its
outside manipulators, some ol them
holding high official positions.
Railroad bonds, without number, it
•aid, have been indorsed by Bollock,
and put into the hands of the plunderers,
before, perhaps, a mile of the rood, in
some cases, was completed; certainly be
fore the requisite number of miles, un
der the law, to entitle them to aid, were
finished.
Any number of gold bonds have been
issued, under the law of the last Legisla
ture, and put upon the market, and the
old*bond* for wnioh they were to l*
an in exchange, hava neves found
way into the bands of tke proper officer
for cancellation.
The genuine and fraudulent indebted
ness qr Georgia, to-day, like that of
South Carolina, is unknown. The prob
ability is, that outside of Ttxilrr*ul in
dorsements, it will resell fifteen millions
of dollars. •
Bat, to expose these frauds, and to
rectify, os far as practicable, these wrongs,
it is neoeasary, not only to have an hon
est and independent Legislature, but tbe
Democracy must nominate and put into
the Executive chair, a mao, hoimat, firm
competent, and above all, faithful to the
interest* qf the people.
Without auy disparagement to others,
whose names have been mentioned in
connection with the nomination, per
mit mo to say, that haviug known
him long and well, in the Hon.
James M. Smith, of Muscogee, the
present Speaker of the House of Bsp-
resentativeo, we have just such a man;
one who, if nominated aud elected Gov
ernor, furnishes, in his post life, a guar
anty that he will sc conduct the affairs
of State that, at the end of his term of
office, he will receive from a grateful
people the plaudit of “Well done, good
and faithful servant Troup.
