The Hun.
Daring the present year a President
and members of Congress are to be
elected.
Libertj must be preserved or lost. The
Corruptionists of the Dajr—the Bond
Kings—the ambitious enemies of free
government—are artfully, persistently
l>aving the way to the overthrow of the
Federal Republic, founded by Washing
ton, Jefferson and Madison, and the es
tablishment of a Centralized Empire and
a Dynasty in its stead.
THE PEOPLE can prevent this if
they wilL They can retain their free
dom, or they can become slaves. The
destiny of this country is to bo decided
by the people's votes l
If the Democratic party will but stand
firmly upon its time-honored platform,
and erect the standard of Liberty, and
honesty in the administration of the gov
ernment, a glorious triumph will be
achieved. Victory is within our grasp.
The enemy is giving way—i* receding
from his utter disregarded of law and
constitutional guaranties. Now is the
time for a vigorous charge upon his wa
vering lines.
This Sun, has been sowing the good
seed of truth. It has already brought
forth good fruit. We shall continue
to sow the seed, and shall expect a rich
harvest to be reaped in the triumph of
honest principles in the next election.
We trust our patrons will aid us in ex
tending the circulation of Tub Sun. Wo
have entered upon our enterprise to assist
in the great work of redeeming the coun
try from the control of robbers, tyrants
and money-changers, who are infesting
the temple of Liberty. Their tables must
be overturned and public opinion must
scourge them from the public prosence.
Wo shall give all the news from the
State Capital—proceedings of the Legis
lature—decisions of the Supreme Court,
and all important news and events con
nected with the State Government; and
shall endeavor to make The Sun a wel
come family visitor.

MARTIAL LAW IN THE SOUTH
Suspension of the Charter of
Liberty.
Conclusion of the Speech of Hon.
John V, Conner, of Texas.
We published yesterday morning tho
greater portion of a speech delivered at
Noblesville, Indiana, on the 18th of No
vember, by Hon. John C. Conner, Mem
ber of Congress from Texas. Tho con
cluding portions of that admirablo ad
dress we have reserved for a separate
diopter, and they are given below. They
refer especially to tho great wrong inflic
ted upon the people of certuiu sections of
tho South, by the suspension of tho writ
of Habeas Corpus, and the subjection of
civil to military authority. Mr. Conner
speaks forth tho words of truth and so
berness, and what ho &ays is worthy tho
most careful attention of the readers of
The Sun. He deals some terrific blows
upon Radical doiugs in Texas—blows
tliut will be felt because they are armed
with the truth.
Mr. Conner said:
Speaking of martial law, calls to mind
the fact that tho futhers had somethin a
to sav upon that subject. You all under
stand that a declaration of martial law
involves the suspension of the privileges
of *
THE WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS,
with all civil courts uud civil tribunala.
And wlmt is this writ of habeas corpus ?
It is everything. Without it no man can
be a freeman, and human liberty becomes
extinct Janies Kent, the great Ameri
can commentator, *uya "it is a writ of
right, which everv person is entitled to.”
It is the base of Euglish freedom and is
older than the Government of theUnitod
States. It was extorted by our auco^tors,
the Barons of England, when they gath
ered around tho throne of their King at
Rnnnymedc, long before the establish
ment of a white settlement on this conti
nent; and when fleeing from British op-
premion, they came to settle in the w ilds
of this Western laud, they brought with
them that sacred guarantee of English
freemen, and finally, having achieved
tlieir independence of the mother coun
try—having carved out a nationality with
the sword, they framed a Constitution
for tlieir government, and iu it they
placed those words:
‘‘The privilege of the writ of Aafaau twina shall
uot be suspended unless when in cams* of rebellion
or iuvasiou the public safety nay require if
That, uiy countrymen, is the language
of tho Constitution, aud tho Supremo
Court of the United States lias decided
in a case that went up from your own
State, that even in cases of rebellion and
invasion, when tho public safety might
require it, as expressed in tho Constitu
tion, there is but one power in this
country that can suspend tho writ of ha-
boas corpus, and that is tho Congrees of
the United States. The President can-
net legally suspend tire writ of habeas cot -
pus, though he is usurping that power
every now and then. The language of
the Constitution of the United States is
copied, word for word, in tho Constitu
tion of the State of Texas, with the ad
ditional provision that in the contingen
cy of rebellion or invasion, the Legiala
lure alone has the power to act In the
faoe of these expressed constitutional
provisions, both Bute and National, we
have Grant suspending the habeas corpus
in Booth Carolina, and Governor Davis
declaring martial law in Texas. And
when we ask them why it is that
they do tbeee things, they will answer
that it is all done in the name of lawxaud
order. f
LAW AMD ORDER!
I know of no two words in the English
language that have been so outraged and
abused by the paid emissaries of despot
ism os those words. "Law” and “order ”
Whenever Uiere is afresh crime to be
liemotratea, or a new aggreasiou to be
nume upon the constitutional guar-
anfe of personal freedom, it is always
“«e necessary, say these advocates
or friends of despotism, by the demands
of law and order. It was in tho name
*«*d order that the second
I mllip made a graveyard of Belgium.
It was law and order which struck Po
land from the roll of nationalities. It
was law and order that tempered the axe
for the head of Madame Roland. It was
law and order that erected the scaffold
npon which the youthful Emmett stood.
It was law and order that burned the
Maid of Orleans at the stake. It was
Jaw and order which, but a few months
ago. p t to death 20,000 of the best men
of Fmce, and caused tho Boulevards of
Paris to run aokle-dcep with the blood of
patriotic Frenchmen; and here, in our
own beloved land, it is in the name of
law and order that the President blots
out human freedom in certain sections of
South Csrolira, and that Governor Davis
truinpies lu.hlcHsly upon a Constitution
which he is sworn to protect and enforce.
This day and this hour there is no human
liberty in this land. We have the form
of a republic without any of its substan
tial benefits. You, gentlemen, come out
to hear me talk to-night, by no right of
your own, but by the gracious indulgence
of Ulysses S. Grant, for he, as President,
with the powers conferred by the Ku-
Klnx bill, may at any moment declare
Indiana a military camp, as has Governor
Davis the county of Limestone, in Texas.
You may close your eyes to these facts
if you will, and vote to sustain
THE GRANT-MORTON-BUTLEB DYNASTY,
with the hope that these existing usurpa
tions will always bo confined to, or never
extend beyond the limits of the Bouthorn
States, but let me ask you if such reflec
tions are in keeping with tho history of
the past ? You go into the quarry, and
it is not the first lick that burst the gran
ite rock; you pass into the forest and it
is not the first stroke that fells the giant
oak. Though each successive stroke
makes the oak grow weaker, mauy
must be stricken before the forest re
sounds with the crashing of its breaking
arms. Thus is it with our institutions.
With our increased resources and the
great industry and intelligence of trnr
people, our system of government,
though republican, becomes a strong
one. It can stand muny blows and mr iy
usurpations.
THE SCHEMES OF THE AMBITIOUS SOLDIER
who sits at the bead of this government
to-day, uud occupies the place once filled
by good and pure meu, is dreaming of
an eusy victory, aud confidently counting
upon the hour when he shall apportion
the several States of this Union as
princely dependencies among his faithful
favorites. And should he bo re-elected
President ho may realize his dream. He
knows tho people with whom he has to
deal, and like a good General, as he is,
he is vanquishing this country by de
tail. His attention is now directed to
tho Bouthcrn wing, aud when ho has
prepared that section for tho empire he
will direct his energies Northward, no
is playing a deep game. Ho knows full
weii that no coup d dot can be successful
in this country so long as tho people re
main uncorrupted or retain their respect
for Republican institutions. Hence his
endeavors to corrupt those who are not
incorruptable, and disgust those who re
main honest. This is already the cose in
South Carolina, and I will wager my ex
istence that her people to-day would wel
come au empire or any other form of
government that would or could protort
life or property, or secure them from the
organized anu systematized plundering
and robbery to which they have been
subjected for tho past few years. Do not
understand mo to say that I bclievo that
tho empire will come. I only say that
Grant desires it, and that it is possible.
THE HOl'E OF THE COUNTRY
rests with the honest people. If they
are prepared to discard passions and rc
turn to reason all may yet bo well. Rut
it must be doue by the honest laboriug
people, and they must unite. Tho lend
ers, those of them who are disposed to
bo honest, can not stay tho revolution
which they inaugurated any more than
Robespierre could stay tho proceedings
of the revolutionary Assembly of France,
though he had organized it and been its
life and spirit. Bince tlm day Charles
Sumnor was caned iu tho United States
Senate Chamber he has been the life,
spirit and rei jgnizod leader of tho Re
publican party. He gave it ideas aud
fought its buttles, when Grant drank
common whisky at the charity of his
friends in an obscure villago of Illinois.
Last winter the Massachusetts Senator
dared to oppose the San Domingo job,
which was favored by the President.
Grant issued his pronunciumento to the
Senuto, aud Charles Sumner as Chair
man of the Committee on Foreign Rela
tions, is no more. Trumbull, Schurz,
Cox of Ohio, aud a score of other lead
ers, have gone down in their party at
the nod of tho Executive, ami tho day
has passed when the political leaders can
save the country. The last hope is with
the people. The meu of toil—tho funn
el's aud mechanics, they are tho last hope
of the couutrv. The time t us come
when tho people must hold their officers
to a strict accountability.
More tbau five thousand years ago tho
allwise and the ever-living God, who
watches over the destinies ot nationali
ties and of men, proclaimed from amid
the burning heavens, as a com maud mout
to meu, theso words:
“THOU SHALT NOT STEAL.”
Let tho American people tako that for
a battle cry. Let them impress it upon
their hearts and stamp it upon their
banners, and then move forward steadily
and with a will, and all may yet be well.
Corruption will then cease, mid the plun
derers who now disgrace official positions
will leave the country, or the Btato pris
ons will claim their own.
In conclusion, it affords me pleasure to
extend an invitation to all honest men to
otMDe to Texas. I care not what may be
your party politis, if you are a good citi
zen you will meet with nothing but kind
ness from oar people. And more espe
cially do I call upon my young friends,
who am desirous of bettering tlieir for
tunes by emigrating to a new State, to
remember that thero is no spot on this
planet where honest merit is more readi
ly rewarded than in the Btato of Texas.
