A Word lo the Democracy.
No truer human maxim ever was ut
tered than that “ the price of liberty is
eternal vigilance.”
Now if the time when this max
eminently applicable to the true friends
of the rights of the People, and the rights
of the States, under the Federal Consti
tution, everywhere.
The country is passing an important
crisis. The Party in Power is aiming at
the overthrow of free Government in this
country, and the substitution in its stead,
of a Centralised Despotism—a Govern
ment without regard to Constitutional
restraints—without regard to the free
dom of the Press—without regard to the
freedom of person—without regard to
the sacred right of the writ of Habeas
4 Corpus, and trial by impartial juries ; a
Government without regard to the inal
ienable rights of tho Peoplo in the
States.
The day approaches, and will soon
open upon us, for the arraignment
before the people, of this Dynasty,^for
their high crimes of Usurpation and
wrongs against tho Constitution and
public Liberty.
It is the mission of the Democracy to
lead tho Grand Impeachment. If this
bo dono upon an open and square issue,
tho result of a signal condemnation is
already seen and felt by the culprits. As
Belshazzar of old, they havo already
seen, and read, tho "handwriting upon
tho wall,” and are trembling in their
High Places.
The only hope of escape they aud
their accomplices have, is, by some such
strategy as that by which Troy was en*
ttred, to dccoivo tho defenders of tlio
citadel of all that is dear to Freemen;
and by some wiley schemo to induco them
to quash the Iadictment—not to proceed
with tho arraignment—but to be satisfied
with some delusive promises of Reform.
Will tho Democracy sulTer themselves
to be so docoivod and mislead in this day
of peril? In the namo of all that thoy
hold most sacrod pertaining to their
rights and liberties, we invoke thorn to bo
on their "watch and guard. ”
Wo address tho masses as well as their
loaders, or those in positions of sentinels.
We tell them t.i bowaro of their Arch
Enomies, who aro now approaching them
with such guiloful words. If tho country
is to bo reformed, who can do it so well—
so certainly and so efficiently as the Party
which has ever stood by tho Constitution?
To ono and ail of this Party
wo most earnestly say, be not deceived by
tho artful and cunuing cry raised aud
seutubroad, that they are in the minority,
and hare no prospect or hope of doing
better than defeating ono Radical Impe
rialist by aiding in electing another ;
that they cau do nothing better for them
selves and their oountry in this contost,
than to aid in the defeat of Grant, l*y
electing some other mau of tho same
Dynasty, "trained" in tho samo "ideas”
and "policies.”
Never were more deceptive aud ruin
ous counsels uttered than these alluded
to, siuce the day that tho great Tempter
said to Eve, that if she would but eat of
the forbidden fruit she wmld "not surely
die 1”
The great truth is apparent to every
ouo who is awake aud understands tho
real condition of popular sentiment in
this country at this time, that an over
whelming majority of the voters in
the United States arc now ready
to pronouuco judgment of condem
nation against the usurpations aud cor-
ruptions of tho present Administration.
This, many of tho heretofore prominent
leaders of the Radical Party see and
know; hence their wiley attempt not
only to cseapo popular condemnation
themselves, but to induco the Democracy
to aid thim in saving their principles!

Mr. Jefferson's Anuivrrsuvy.
Last Saturday there was nu iuformulc
gathering in the city of a chosen few of
tho disciples of Jclfersou, who met to
confer together, and to commemorate
the anniversary. It was not thought ex
pedient to make any public demonstra
tion, but to confine ourselves to the cir
culation of the tme ideas of liberty and
its constitutional protection, which aro
so tlrrnly grounded in the basis of our
institutions, aud which are forever as
sociated with the great patriot’s fame.
Thero seems to be a settled conviction
tuning Jeffersonians that' we will have to
meet the dang.rs of the crisis by a resort
to his example. Ho was compelled to
encounter them in bis day without much
assistance; indeed, a handful of disciples
was all that ho could summon among the
statesmen of his day, while of all the
score of States, only Virginia and Ken
tucky stood op for that interpretation of
the Constitution which he and Mr. Mad
ison demonstrated to be sonnd.
lint wo have concluded to abide onr
time, whoa, after the Cincinnati and
Philadelphia Conventions, it shall have
been found that all evasions and compro
mises have been barreu and deceptive,
perhaps the common mind will find ont
that the tme leaden are thoao who do
now, and have always insisted that there
was no safety in any but the well-knwwn
principles of the State rightsschool, "ml
in thu selection for President of s repre
sentative of those principles.

The Constitutional Amendments,
We publish tho lucid exposition of
Reverdy Johnson, one of the great legal
luminaries of our country, as to tho tenor
and effect of the fourteenth and fifteenth
amendments. The subject is of abiding
interest to the people of tho whole coun
try, and especially of our section. But it
is not new to onr readers, nor is it here
presented with greater force than has
been brought to their attention hereto
fore.
The lion. Linton Stephens, in hi:
argument before Commissioner Swnzey
at Macon in 1870, presented tho whole
subject in all its bearings in a masterly
manner. Nothing 1ms l>< en said since
that can add strength to Ins argument.—
It effectually killed tho proseoutiou tin u
instituted against our distinguished fel
low-citizen.
FEDERAL CSUBPATIOM0.
Wash i kg toe, l>. C., April 10.—-Tho follow-lug i*
tbo argument of tho lion. Keverdy Johnson before
the Supreme Court ou the point of the constitution
ality of the Knforcement act in the Ku-Klux cases:
In tho consideration of all questions of this kind
there sre certain rules to bo borne la mind. Thru a
are, in substance, that the Government of the United
States is a government of enumerated powers. Ther •
be ng no antecedent government, consisting of all
tho people of all the States as an aggregate body. It
cau have no derivative powers. The difficulty which
the convention felt, itself under, wss to determine
wliat powers of sovereingty the States would agree
to surrender, and in all thu debateu in the conven
tion it was admitted that no powers were to be con
sidered as surrendered unless such powers were
delegated to the United States, aud every member of
the convention therefore admitted that tho Govern
ment, to be organized under tho Constitution, would
havo no powers except such as were delegated or
h delegate
o implied:
prevailed in each ono of tho state conven
tions by which the Constitution was afterwards rati
fied and has ever since been recognized as the true
view by tho courts of tho United States as well as
those of the States. It Is clearly stated by Marshall
in the case of McCullough rt. Maryland in 4th
Wboatou.
It necessarily follows from this doctrine that nil
tho powers of sovereignty before existing in tho
States, or tho people separated, unless they aro in
cluded in those granted to tho General Government
or expressly taken away, belong to them now. And
the people were so jealous upon this particular point
that, almost coeval with tlm ('oiihtitution, amongst
other amendments intended to restrict the power of
tho Goneral Government and to guard the rights of
tho States and the people of the States, they ratified
tho tenth amendment, which declares that “the
powers delegated to the United States by the Con
stitution, nor prohibited by it to tho States, are re
served to the States rospoctively or to tlio people.”
TUB ELECTIVE 1 KANCUIhE.
Did they surrender by the Constitution their
Jurisdiction over the elective franchise? Until lately
this has never been pretended. First, because thero
Is no such grant; second, because the Constitution
itself, as originally adopted, recognizes the right to
be in tho States, by tho provision in the second sec
tion of the firstarticle, which states that “in the elec
tion of members of the House of Representatives tho
electors in each Btato shall havo tho qualifications
roqlsitc for electors of the most numerous brafick
of the State Legislature.” “This Is a clear coucosslon
that the elective frauchiso was intended to bn left
to tho Statos as It existed. Besides, If anything
cculd make it moro cloar, it would bo that if it had
been designed to tako away from or limit the right
of tlio States it would havo been dono by hoiuo pro
vision in tho tenth section of the first article,
which contains restrictions on tho power which
did not or should not belong absolutely to the
States. Auy other provision, therefore, to bo found
tbe Constitution as originally adopted is to be
of government to each State, contained
fourth section of tho fourth article, was designed to
givo to Cungrcaa power over tho electJvo franchise,
aud, notwithstanding Mr. Attorney Geuoral'a doc
trine as to tho effect of that clause, I shall consider
as clear that it did not, although I may have some
thing to say upon tho subject beforo I conclude.
Assuming, thou, that tho original Constitution left
tlio States in the possession of the exclusive power
over tho olectlvt franchise, 1 proceed next to inquiro
whether that power was taken away or abridged by
tho .thirteenth and fourteenth amendments, and to
what extent it was abridged by tho fifteenth amend
ment.
First—As to tlio thirteenth amendment. That simp
ly abolished slavery, but guvo tbe liberated slave no
other right but tho right of freedom a* against ins
master aud against all othor men. It clothed him with
no political right. Tho second section of that amend
ment, giving to Cougress the power by appropriate
legislation to enforce tho amendment, iH to he con
strued with reference to the object of tho ainoml-
iuont, pud to nothing olso. Thoy might under this
clause provide by law for tlio protection and securi
ty of tlio right of freedom, but they could no moro
givo to tho emancipated stave the right of siiifrsgo
than tlier could givo him the right to"bo elected to
offico in tho State, over official qualifications for
Stato offices tho State lias exclusive Jurisdiction, and
it had and still Iisn, as far as this amendment is con
cerned at any rato, exclusive jurisdiction over tho
suffrage. Any legislation, therefore, by Congress
upon tho subjoct of either right is not only not ap
propriate to accomplish tho end of the amoudment,
but is n direct interference with what had, from tho
origin of the Government to the adoption of that
amondmeut, been hold to bo exclusively vested In
the State.
Second—As to tho fourteenth ameudinont. So fai
ls the amcndnicut from giving to tho United Slides
qwwor over tho suffrage, it in words concedes that
that power is in tho State. This, two, shows that
Congress did not boliovo that tho pmvor was taken
away or modiflod by tho thirteenth amendment, or
that it wav expedient to take it away. All that tho
nniendmout does is to provide that as tho Stages may
or may not oxcorciso their power over tho right of
suffrage, their representation in Congress may or
may not bo reduced. This is dono by tho second
section of tho amendment, which provides that,
when tho right to vote at the elections specified la
denied by any State to tho male inhabitants twenty-
such State, it is obvious that this doos not tako
from tho States tho right over tho suffrage, but, ou
coutray, evidently admits it, ami mere
ly provides how the oxerciso of it in a cer
tain way may affect their representation in Congress.
Now can it bo oven plausibly maintained that the
of tho a
ny s' * __
that soctiou were intended
sets. First, To declare what is « citizenship, a
moat ion about which there was thought to bo some
loubt; Second, To prohibit tlio States from making
ir enforcing any law which might abrldgo the prlv-
legos or Immunities of each cltizou, and deprive
thorn of life, liberty, or property, without tho duo
process of law, or deny to any person within their
Jurisdiction tho equal protection of tho laws. It is,
I think, clear that these clauses havo uothiug what
ever to do with tho power of the United States over
tho suffrage. Certainly citixoushlp docs uot givo
tho right to voto; for if it did, all citizens,
i, women and children, whether black
white, would have tho right. Nor is
tho right to vote a privilege or immunity
belonging to a citizen as such. It may be made to
depend upon aga, property qualification, mental
pacify or lorgth of residence. As tho power to p
scribe these qualifications, when tlio amendment
was adopted, was universally considered as bolon.
ing to tho States, it could not havo been the inten
tion ol tho amendment t * tako it away or to abridge
it; tho authority therefore conferred tQion Congress
by the fifth section of tho amoudment, to enforce by
appropriate logtalatlon iu tho provisions of tlio ar
ticle, cannot properly beoonatrued as giving authort
ty to legislate for some end or object not embraced
in the uiueudtuont; aud consequently, if the amend
ment does not interfere with tho power of the States
over suffrage, it cannot givo Cougress the power to
legislate In regarvl to the suffrage.
Third—As to the fifteenth amendment. Does tho
amendment authorize the legislation in question ?
As has been before said (i believe proved) at the
time when thia amoudment was adopted, the general
and absolute power over the suffrage was in tho
States. >Vliat, then, was tho purpose of the amend
ment? Was it to take away that i>ower from the
States aud veat it in Congress? Surely not. For if
that wsh the purposo then tho State would bo cu>
tiroly deprived of all power over tho suffrage. Usd
this been the design it would have been very easy to
have accomplished it by clear and unambiguous
lauguage—not only depriving tho Stato of it but vest
ing the power exclusively in Congress; aud if that
had becu the design and affect of the amendment it
would have been the duty of Cougress to pa** laws
regulating the suffrage in all particular*; cither
giving the right to all to vote, or proscribing tho
qualifications necessary to its exorcise. This has
uot only never bocn done, but it has not even been
suggested that Congress has any such power. The
conclusion f >Uow* that tho jurisdiction of the Statos
tho sufUmgo Is the same now as it waa before
the fifteenth amcudmvut, subject only to the limits-
■‘»u upon that Jurisdiction which tho amcndtucut
mem,
What is that limitation? It relates to one single
matter, and being so limited it leaves evory other
matter relative to tho suffrage as it was before. The
amendment is:
‘The right of eitizent cf the United States to voto
ill * **•■*-■■

radition of servitude.
Tho States, therefore, and the Uuited States, In
their authority over the Territories, posses* the
powor to regulate tho suffrage, with tho siugle res
triction that they shall not deny it ou account of
color or previous condition of servitude. Docs
this take from cither the power to make tho right to
voto dependent upon age, intelligence, reaideuce or
moral character? It will hardly he maintained that
it does.
The object of the amendment only being then to
deprive the Stato or the Uuitcd States ot the
to deny tho right on account of race, color or t>i
condition of servitude, tho evident mcamr_
the provision was that they should not do this
their political character as States; a different iutei-
pretatimi would givo to the United States the cxcln-
bo made ao by Congressional legislation. The Statos
are not, therefore, at liberty to prescribe the qualifi-
catlouH of voters in all other particulars than those
prohibited by this amendment, nor can they pre
scribe the manner of voting whether by ballot
or viva voce, or of making the returns, or of
purging, or of setting them aside as their laws may
provide, nor to punish a man who votes more than
once, or one or more of their citizens who may pre
vent a legal voter from voting.
The argument of tho counsel of tbe Government,
in their brief as well as at the bar, is that the word
“State.” as used in tho fourteenth and fifteenth
amendments, is uot to be understood as only refer
ring lo States in their political cbwwcter,
idles equally ' '

personal violence, often extending to
mu;.’. ,. They terrify the witnesses.
They control juries in the State courts
and sometimes in the courts of the Uni-
ted States. Hystematic spying is one of
the means by which tbe prosecution of
the members is defeated. From infor
mation given by tho officers of the States
and of tne United States, and by credi
ble private sources, I am justified in af
firming that the instances of criminal vi
olence perpetrated by these combinations
within the last thirteen months in tbe
above named counties could be reckoned
by thousands. I received information ot
similar import from various sources,
among which were three joint committees
of Congress on Southern Outrages, the
officers of the State, the military officers
of the United States on duty iu South
Carolina, the United States Attorney and
Marshals and other officers of the
Government, repentant and abjuring
members of those unlawful organizations,
persons especially employed by the De
partment of Justice to detect crimes
against the Unitad States, and from other
credible sources. Most, if not all, of this
information, except that I derived from
tho Attorney-General, came to me orally,
and was to tho effect that the said coun
ties were under the sway of powerful
combinations, popularly known us the
Ku-Klux Klan, the objects of which were
by force and terror to prevent all politi
cal action not in accordance with the
views of the members, to deprive colored
citizens of the right to bear arms, and of
the right of a free ballot, suppress tho
school in which colored children were
taught and to reduce the colored peoplo
to a condition closely akin to that of
slavery; that these combinations were
organized and armed, and had rendered
tho local law ineffectual to protect the
classes they desired to oppress; that they
had perpetrated many murders and
crimes of minor degree, all of which
were unpunished, aud that witnesses
could uot safely testify iu tho courts
there until tho most active members were
placed under restraint.

citizens of a state acting iudlvulual-
_ s combination with other citizea*,
iting a citizen from voting ou account of
fils race, color or prwloua condition of servitude,
when his right to vote in admitted by tho law of tho
State. For this they rely upon the esse of Texas ti.
White (7 Wallace, 720). There la nothing in the
opi lut'ii of the Chief Justice in that case which was,
l think, the slightest foundation for this doctrine.—
I have uot time to examine that point of the opinion
relied upon by tbe Government, but it seems to me
perfectly evident that tbe meaning of the term
••Stato,” as found in the Constitution, is a State of
the Uulted States, aud of oourse that term is uot used
us synonymous with the people of s State in tbier
aggregate capacity, or with any portion of the people.
Alter referring to the different meaning# of the term,
as given by publicists, as sometimes applying to
tbe peoplo aud sometimes to tbe territorial limits
within which they located, and sometimes to the
government which they may have established, and
sometimes as meaning all throe—people, territory
and government—rand stating that iu the latter sense
the word is generally used iu the Constitution, tbs
Chief Justice at Ids that “a State, iu the ordinary
souse of the Constitution, is a political community
of free citizens, occupying a territory of defined
boundaries, aud organized under a government
sanctioned and limited by a written constitution,
aud established by the consent of the gov
erned. It is tho Union of such States under a
common constitution which forms the distinct
and greater political unit which that Constitution
designates aa tbe United States, and makes of ths
people ami Slates which compose it ouo people aud
ono country." If the counsel for tho Government bo
right, that the word State, as used in the Fourteenth
aud Fifteenth Amendments, applies to any individu
al or number of individuals; tbeu, instead of their
being thirty-seven States, there may be thousands
or millions of States. To couslruo these individuals
to bs States in order to puuiah them, and to deny
them the privileges of States, would seem to bo
grossly unjust. The doctrine, however, has no sup
port in thcConstltutJon, and is glaringly unsound—
and I would nay absurd, if it did uot come from such
high authority.
Before leaving this point I havo but a word to say
relative to the view of tho Attorney General that the
legislation in dispute, if not warranted by oitber of
the three of the last amendments, is warranted by
the clause in the fourth section of tho fourth article,
whi h provides that tho Uuitcd States shall guaran
tee to every Stats iu tho Union a Republican form o;
government. This clause evidently assumes that
there ti a Republican Government to be guaranteed.
'Die Cougress of tbe United States bad no authority
then and has tiouo now to form a government for
the States. This can only bo done by the peoplo if
tho States respectively, and in tbe exorcise of the
power they are subject to no limitations other than
those to He found in tho powers delegated to the
United States, or by tho restrictions to tho States
contained in tbe Constitution of the Uuitcd States.
If tho Attorney General Is right, then, when tho
Constitution was adopted there was no Republican
government in the States, lor iu nearly all of them
the exercise of the suffrage was not only limited to
those having property qualification, ago, etc.,
but was also confined to tho white race. Aud now, iu
Massachusetts, whoso people are supposed to have
had quite an enlarged and comprehensive sense ol
political liberty, the ouffrago is subject to su educa
tional tost. If, tlicretore, tbe law in question has any
mpport under tbo guarantee clause, it can only bo
i day lues this item:

Mr. Stephens' History.
We liavo received from tbe National
Publishing Co., of Philadelphia, u copy
of tlio Hon. A. H. Stephens’ History of
tho War between tho States, complete iu
one volume.
Unlike the mass of its cotemporaries,
which live their little hour to bo forgot
ten, this work w worthy of a fur more ex
tended review than our space will admit.
It ia, perhaps, unfortunate that the au
thor should havo clioscn tho dialogue or
colloquy form to convey so extended and
so minute u view of tho history of the
country; for the dialogue, there cau be
no question, is inconsistent with the pur-
noses of the historian, however phi
losophical ho may bo, and 1ms become
nnsuitod to the tastes of tho present
day even for dialectical disquisitions.
This, however, is matter of detail and
takes little from tho essential value of
this history, which, it is safo to say, lias
taken, aud will for generations maintain,
tho first rank in our politico-historical
literature. Mr. Stephens traces iu most
accurate and comprehensive manner tho
course of tho formation of tho United
►States Government from the days of tho
old articles of confederation, and read
ing the constitution of 1789, by the light
shed upon it by tho difficulties and fail
ures of the original confederation, he
establishes the true object aud in
tent of tho com{ftct formed and ex
pressed by that instrument. Tho subse
quent legislation, growing out of inter
preting and currying into effect that con
stitution, is elaborately displayed, aud
fiually we have a picture, drawn soberly
and with closest attention to fact, of the
condition of the Union iu the decade
befoio secession, 1850-60. Thus prepar
ing the reader for a true view of the war
between the States, Mr. Stephens lays
before him a summary of that struggle,
with special attention to tho legislative,
diplomatic and political history of the
Confederacy, and giving nu exhaustive
analysis of tho famous Conference at
Hampton Roads.
With this meagre outline wc must be
content. For in truth Mr. Stephens'
work is ono to which no review could do
justice. No citizen anxious, ns overy
itizen should bo, to Uuow tho past and
the present history of tho country will
fail to study this, tho most valuable of
our political theories. It contains a
mino of information. Aliko to the active
politician as to tbo closo student, it is
indispensable, and whatever be tbe mood
in which wo receivo Mr. Stephens’ theo
ries, posterity will bo grateful to him, for
he bus in this great work embalmed, as
it were, tho seventy years’ life of a Union
tho most marvellous—seventy years of a
prosperity tho most complete—seventy
years of a happiness tho most perfect
that can be shown by the history of tho
peoples of the earth.

last Friday:
In answer to the resolution of the
House of Representatives of January 25,
I have tho honor to submit tbe following,
accompanied by the report of tho Attor
ney General, to whom the resolution
was referred. Representations having
been made to me that in certain portions
of South Carolina a condition of lawless
ness and terror existed, I requested the
then Attorney General Aker mau to visit
tho State, and after a personal examina
tion, to report to me tho facta in relation
to tlio subject On tlio 16th of October
last lie addressed a communication from
South Carolina, iu which ho stated that
in the counties of Spartanburg, York,
Chester, Union, Laureus, Newburg,
Fairfield, Lancaster and Chesterfield,
there were combinations for the pur
pose of preventing tho free political action
of citizens who wera friendly to the Con
stitution and the Government of tho
United States, and of depriving the
emancipated doss of the equal piotcction
of the Jaws. Those combinations em
brace at least two-thirds of tho active
wliito men of those comities, and have
tho sympathies aud countenance of a ma
jority of the other third. They aro con
nected with other similar combinations
in counties and Ktitcs and are uo doubt
a grand system of criminal associations
