Atlanta How for an antboritative an swer. We think it best that Ur. Steph ens should be permitted to answer for bimaalf in a natter so pertinent to bis present position and put political views. We thank onr ootemporary for allow ing ns to answer for oneself in this mat in. It is always a pleasure to ns to anwer in all matters pertaining tt> onr put or present political views: 1. In reply then, to tbe first question ot “Wisp," we have to inform him, and onr contemporary, if he did not know it before, that we did not advise tbe Democratic members of tbe Legislature to vote for tbe ratification of tbe 14th Amendment We gave no euoh advioe to a single one of them, either for the reeeon etated by “Wiep” or any other. Onr advioe then was in substance, as it bai been ever Ain00, to toooh not taste not handle not thie nnolean thing. A more utterly unfounded statement oonld not be fkbrioated, than that intimated by tbe inquiry of tbia correspondent of the Chronicle anti Sentinel. X To the aeoond question of “IVUp," we answer with equal emphasis that we are not now opposing the only, or any candidate that is for “self-government"— but we are opposing all candidates who are not for it. It U not because Mr. Greeley U in favor of self-government that we oppose Aim, bnt ohiefly bocause he U against it. “Wisp” seems to be as ignorant of the position and principles of Mr. Groeley, and his ideas of solf-governmcnt, it be has shown himself, by tiis inquiry, to be in regard to onr position and prinoiplcs. Ha seems not to know that Mr. Greeley was one uf me chief aotors in imposing this very 11th Amendment upon ten States by “fraud, perfidy and violence I ” That it wad at his instance Georgia was pnt nnder bayonet rule I Is that tbe sort of self-government that “WUp” wishes us to advocate! Is that tha sort he wulies to see established in thaw States! Are the principles of Mr. Greeley, upon which that sort of self- govarnmeut wu founded end U now by him justified, the principles that he wishes to see established in this country! We will not do “Wisp” the injostioe to suppose either. We think he U simply u ignorant in regard to Mr. Greeley u he U in regard to us. In advocating Mr. Greeley's election in the hope or ex pectation of thereby securing the greet right of local self-government by the States of IhU Union, he simply knows not wbitke U doing. Xbo aelf-govcnKueut which weadvo eate, U tho great and inestimable—if not inalienable—right of the people of each of the SUtes of this Union, to govern them selves u thgy please,under their own SUte organic laws,within the limitation of the Federal Constitution, and not, as Mr. Grseley or the Federal authorities may please, in tho exercise of usurped power, outside of these limitations ! We are for the self-government of the fathen—the founders of our matohless system of State and Federal Govern ments. Mr. Greeley it for that sort of radical, imperial aelf-governmeut, exemplified in all the Iteoonatruetion abominations, including tbe infamous usurpations by which the 14th and 10th Amendments have been proclaimed to be parts of the Constitution, and by which the Enforce ment Acts—Ku-Klux — Election Bills, and other liko outrages have been im posed upon the oountry. As we opposed these principles of Mr. Greeley ia 1867-8, ao wa oppose them now; and aa we should not have rapport- ad him then, bolding the prinoiplaa he did, so we will not rapport him now,still holding, aa he does, the aame principles he did then. His kind ot loan! self-gov ernment bat not grown in favor with as from tha experience ot tbe lest five yean. We, moreover, trust never to live to see tha day whan we shall either beeome so lost to onr sense of liberty as to look op- on ft with favor, or so crushed by power m to giveit onr aaaotion. A.U.8.

Under tho abovscaption will Iw found below, an editorial ot our highly es teemed ootemporary, tho Home Courier of the 13th instant, which we should have noticed several days ago, but for s severs renewed attack of bodily indispo- siton, from which wo havo cot yet recov ered to tho extent of our usual nulTei ing condition. We now, however, uvail ourselves of an interval between the paroxysms of pain, to say a few words in reply to our ootemporary. 1. Our friend says: In Mr. SteptikSA* tsUiual* of Uie powers ul Constitution them ma be no atBorouc. belwswn II we UDOkraUsO hint rlsbUp, bk Isolde Uset ell Use powers, vested ia Ui« Constitution, we derived front tbe H tales; that tbe whole force end effect uf ito pro- viaj oi>» are firm by tbe Bf*to« tod by tbe HUtee cad be amended, altered or iWvrkad. Thie we adroit.— Tku nobody denitt, not Morton, CarpmUr or UttlUr, else they would not have required tbe bayoneting of the Southern Bute* in tbe adoption of tbe amendments to five them tbe semblance of thority and legal validity. We have italicized a few words in the above extract to call special attention to them, because it ia on tbia point tbe great and wide difference between Mr. Greeley and the Pennsylvania Democra cy arises. , We say to our friend, most respectful ly and earnestly, that while he and we agree fully on this point, yet Mr. Mor ton, Mr. Carpenter, Mr. Duller and Mr. Greeley, with the whole Badical Central ising party, do most positively and di rectly deny tho great truth on which he and we arc so perfectly agreed. They emphatically deny that any power hat-been vetted, delegated or given by the States. They maintain that the Constitution was not made, formed, adopted, or ratified by the States They hold that this wss the work of tbe people of the United States as one matt or nation. This has been the creed of the Cen tralists from the time the Government went into operation, under the new Con stitution of 1787-89; while the creed of ths Democratic Party has ever been that all the powers which tho Federal Gov ernment can rightfully exercise are held by delegation/rom the Statee. This is the great historic truth set forth by Mr. Jefferson in his oelebrated Kentuoky Resolutions of 1798, in arrest of those centralizing principles npon which the infamous Alien and Sedition Aots were formed. From the Jeffersoni an Creed, thns announced in 1789, the Democracy have never yet departed. As to the oourse of Mr. Morton, Groe ley A Co., in requiring the Southern Statee, under bayonet rule, to adopt the 14th and lDth Amendments, eo-catted, to the Constitution, ho it sufficient to say, that they wero compelled to do obeisance to the truth by motions of their lips, in the forms of their proceedings, while in their hearts and by tbeir acts they utterly denied it nnd trampled it under foot! Their conduct was as indefensible on their own principles os it was shameless in its outrages upon pnblio liberty ! 2. Another remark ot our esteemed cotemporary, is in these words : But kSmittlns Ihkt the ConkUtutlon tl'tek dartre it, eowerk from tlie blktek, eua rra-raing to tb» bleu, lb. power to ch,ugo or revoke itk provielol ra.nr., doo« It follow, ttiet. beckueo of tbit ,tok krk not kubjoet to the Couatitatioo 1" By no means, so far as the potters dele- gated extend! The States ami their citi zens, are subject to all the powers right- fully vested iu, or nnder tho Constitu tion. But theso powers are specifically enumerated—they are limited—and herein again is disclosed the great and wide difference between the two Besolntions. Mr. Oreeley recognises no limitation of the Federal Powers According to his creed they extend to every thing that may be deemed neoessary, in his judg ment, for the good government of any State, city, village, or township in the nation—to every thing, ineluding the regulations of hotels, roads, schools and elections t Bat the Pennsylvania Democracy, on the other hand, as Mr. Jefferson, recog nizes the obligation of tho Constitution npon the States and their citizens only to tbe extent of tho powers specifically delegated. Beyond these, they hold that any power exercised by the Federal Government is a usurpation. The difference between the Constitu tion of a State and tho Constitution ol the United States, is this: The former is in tho nature of a sooial compact, entered iuto by tho peoplo of one politieal com munity, as ouo mass or nation; while the latter is a Federal Compact, entered into by, or “between" separate communities, distinct States or nations, bat in either, any exorcise of power not dele gated, is a usurpation. Tltia is all we can aay to our friend to day, except to expreas our hope that he clearly perceives the vast difference which we have endeavored to show, exists be tween the Democratic principle* of tbe Pennsylvania Resolution and the Rad- ioal centralizing manifesto of Mr. Greeley. A. H. S. Mr. Stephens, in Ths Atlanta Sun of the 9tb, hss done us the kindness to an swer the query propounded by ns in onr issue of the 6th instant, which austrer we give elsewhere in full. The difference stated by Mr.Stephens is: X. ret PkltltkylrkBlk Rraolution (llrtioctly .fflna, the croak IrvUi Utkl tbk OonaUtiittoa of Utk Uattkd Mate.

Not a word about Utk Batura of tbk Okoaral ttoveromeoL or the aourew of lu powara, and oot k word about tbk "UmllaUoa" of bat in this matter we do widely rad hon estly differ. Mr. Stephana applies the teat of anaiytioe) criticism to the matter in hand, end goes nnder the rarfera to determine its true character. This is right; no superficial estimate of a qaee- tion should determine one's opinions, hat we shonld look beneath, tue outer cuticle (often tinseled with a glittering brass, to hide a rotten body) if we would know of a truth what it is w u are required to embrace. lit Mr. Stepbeus' estimate of tho pow ers of tbe Constitution, there can be no difference between no. If we understand him rightly, ho holds that all the powers vested in the Constitution are derived from the States. That tbe whole force and effect of its provisions are given by tho States, and by the States can be amended, altered or revoked. This we admit This nobody denies, not even Morion, Car|N<nter or Butler, else they would not have required the bayonettiug of tlie Southern Status into tho adoption of the recent amendments, to give them the semblance of authority and legal vi tality. But admitting that the Constitu tion does derive its powers from the States, and reserving to the States the power to ebango, amend or revoke its provisions at pleasure, does it follow that because of this the States are not subject to the Constitution; that all SUte laws mu t not be in harmony with its provis ions; that ail SUte officials must not owe it obedienoe, and all good citizens of the SUte must not accord to itz solemn rev erence aud obedience? It Mr, Stephens hud only curried his analysis a little farther be would have readily perceived the untenable grounds npon which bis argument rests. If from tho Federal Constitution he had descended to the SUte Constitution, sad applied the same test to it that bo applies to the Federal, he would have seen that in this too, as well os in the other, the Constitution holds iU powers from another and a creative source ; the peo pie. All governmenU most dative their jnst powers from the consent of the governed. The SUte Constitution derives its pow ers from the people, just as the Federal Constitution derive* iu power from the SUtes. By the citizens of tho Stute its Constitution oan he amended, at will, jo>t as the Federal Constitution can be amend ed by the SUtes at will. -But because ol this dependenoo npon tbe will of iU people, for iU powers and its perpetuation, is it to be regarded as any the less sacred to them? Do not all good citizens owe it a reverential obedienoe, so long as iu pro visions remain in effect? Can a citizen, without offense, refuse obedience to its powers? Mr. Stephens is too good a lawyer to say that he cun. No, no mat ter from where the Federal Constitution derives iU powers, so long as its pro visions remain nnamended by the power creating it, the people everywhere are “subjeot to iu solemn obligations.” There is another grave error into which it occurs to us that Mr. Stephens hint [alien. He appears to confound the Government at Washington with the Constitution, the centralizing despot ism of the present administration with the power, to which the Cincinnati reso lution declared a solemn obedience. This is unjust, the centralized powers usurped by Grant are not warranted by the Constitution, and it is against them that the Cincinnati movement is arrayed. In declaring subjection to the Constitu tion it is in fact arraigning the central power before the people for a violation nnd setting aside of the Constitution. Aud this same misUke has been cruel ly operating against ns of the South ever since Grant's election. Our opoei- tiou to his administration has been tor- 'ured unto a rebellious opposition to tbe Government; the Constitutional Govern ment of tlie United States. It is not right in our enemies to say that we are disloyal to the Constitution because we denounce Grant's administration. It is qually unjust in Mr. Stephens, to say chut we favor the central power, because wo declare our obedience to tbe Consti tution. Those two are widely apart, one is an administration, a policy; the other is a fundamental power, a principle.— The Cincinnati candidates are for the Constitution, but they are against Grant and hia central power. Between them we have to choose, and between them we choose the Constitution.

We regret to havo to differ in opinion from one whom we reteem aa the purest and beat man in the Slate of Georgia, tfcb' Tho Constitution, this (Thursday) morning, protests agaiDst the Executive Committo calling another Moss Covec- tion. The sum aud snbstanco of that protest, is that our neighbor wants— desires—tbe true Democracy of Fulton county to be misrepresented in tbe State Convention—desires Greoley mon to go there iu preference to true and -souud Democrats. This is they way it appears to us. If this conclusion ot ours is wrong, we shall ho sorry for having expressed it; with the lights before can come to no other. It still further makes tho impression on tbe minds of impartial readers that it prefers to have Greeley and the Cincinnati platform adopted by tho Baltimore Convention, to having that Convention adhere to party principles and party usago. Our neighbor argues that those who wero not at the meeting last Saturday have no right to call for a new meeting and that those who wero there and did not vote have no right to make such a call—thus excluding all the Democrats tf Fulton county from the right to make suoh a call, exoept fourteen and those who voted iu favor of the Greeley ticket last Saturday; and urging everybody to submit to unfairness and outrage upon Democratic principles and usage. Tho true Democracy of that meeting had to excroiso tho forbearanoo they did, and retire without voting, and refuse to have anything to do with a meeting converted into a disorderly mob by that faction whiah the Constitution ■sems so anxious should misrepresent the Democracy of Fulton coauty in the Ojnvcntion. This dborder could have been overcome by as lawjeas proceedings at the faction begau and were allowed to oontinue to tlie end. Tho Tree Democ racy could have obtained a fair hearing by a physical oonteat for it aud a triumph over the disorderly conduct of others by unparliamentary foroe. This they chose not to do. They had confidence in the justioe of their cause, and believed they had a better remedy—one that was peaceable and legitimate; and this tlioy have resorted to. They believe in tho power of truth, auditive chosen to pre sent it courteously, peaceably aud lawful ly, but earnestly. The Chairman did nut preserve tinier ; and the motions which were legitimately made were nut pul to the meeting; aud through such mtohiuery— such uuftir- ue*s—aa this, a set of Greeley delegates wero ileolered chosen, contrary to the wish of tho Forty; aud tho (onslitulim is mgiM the Denoerery to abide by it It Is urged that the Chairman tried to keep order, bat ooald sot, and that tbe reeeon he did not pnt legitimate motions, was that fci could oot bring tbe meeting to 1 on Sclent state of order quietly aod deoently to pnt ■ motion. Thie may be true. We will not sey; but wo noticed that be pnt to the meeting a motion to adjourn, and declared it car ried, after all the miacUtet was done. Now, it seems to ns that he onght to have left the chair, if he was unable to onforoe hia authority, preserve order, and secure to e'very man in tho meeting a fail show. It farther seem* to as that he might have made the square issue with the dis turbers and diaorganizers, and refused to adjourn the meeting till all parties had a fair showing. It seems to tu that he could, in some way have manifested, un mistakably, his disapprobation of the way things were going on, and vindicat ed himself from all responsibility for the disorder. This he did not. But we do ezoeedingly regret to be under tbe neoeaaity of discussing these things. We, however, feel it to be a saored dnty we owe to the Party and the oountry, to expose tho weakness of onr neighbor's plea, who, we are forced, with a sad heart, to conclude, prefers to have the wish of the Democratic party of Ful ton county disregarded; and prefers to have the Party misrepresented in the State Convention and prefers to let the irregular and unfair proceedings of last Saturday stand as the judgment and tbe notion of the true Democracy of Fulton oonnty. We prefer to abide by tbe will of a majority of the party, fairly and peace ably expressed. •• It is mi unseemly etrlls over spoils, snd not i noble contest furprinbiptos. It is making personal isaues the paramount question of the campaign.'* go says our neighbor, the Constitution, when pleading with the Democracy ot Fulton county to oonseut to be misrep resented in the State Convention, by men with whose avowed principles and publicly declared political views they do not agree. The Democracy of Fulton care bnt little who it is that represents and acts tor them, provided tbeir ptin- •iples are correctly npheld and carried out. It is not a mere personal issue, but one involving tbe correct representation of their principles in the State Conven tion. Old Editor. Mr. J. N.
