t Georgia?
THE QUBmO* DECIDED BY THE SUPBXSIZ OOUXT.
I From He Atlanta Intelligencer, of the 23d.]
On the qnestion of toe legality, under the
I laws of Georgia, of the intermarriages of whites
■ and persona of color, the Supreme Co net yi
I lerilay rendered the following deciaion.
(.hief Justice Brown stated that in the case
I Charlotte Scott,
Plaintiff in error, 1 Indictment for adultery
I __ „ ▼*- > and fornication. From
I The State of Georgia, Dougherty county.
Defendant in error. J •
■ the following wero the points decided by the
I Court- . '
1st. The Code of Georgia adopted by the new
■ Constitution, forever prohibits the marriage re-
■ (ation between white persona and persona of Af-
■ riran descent, and declares such marriages nuB
I and rtiitl.
I This section of the Code is not repealed, by
I nor is it inconsistent with that part of the Con-
■ stitntion which declares that: “ The social
I status of the citizen shall never be the subject
^ h gislation." That dauae of the Constitution
9MT«s)iutely denies to the Legislature the power
■ to pass laws in future regulating tho social status
I «r compelling the two races to nnite in social
I intercourse. As the lava then in existence al-
I lowed chnrchea, for instance, to determine for
■ themselves who should occupy their seats, and
I where they should sit; and permitting railroad
I and steamboat companies, and hotel-keepers, to
■ classify and asngn places to those using their
■ accommodations, according to social status and
I grade as thej might think proper; the Conati-
I tution puts it beyond the power of the Legisla-
I tore to enact any law compelling them to make
■ different classifications, or to group together in
■ social intercourse those who do not recognize
■ each other as social equals.
I As the social relations of citizens are not the
I proper subjects of legislation, the Constitution
ft Ims wisely put the matter at rest, by denying to
I tho Legislature the power to repeal or enact
I laws on that subject.
I TIIE IHIEV JUSTICE DEUVXSZD THE OPIXIOX AS
FOLLOWS: .
I. The record in this case presents a single
I question for the consideration and adjndicatioir
I of this Court. Have white persons and persons
I of color the right, nnder tho Constitution and
I laws cf Georgia, to intermarry and live together
I in this Htato as husband and wife? Thexjues-
I lion is distinctly made, and it is our duty to
[ Mtoet it fairly, and dispose of it.
The Codo of Georgia, as adopted by tho new
I Constitution, section 1707, forever pn&ibit* the
ninniage relation between the two races, and
declares all such marriages null and told.
With the policy of this law we have nothing
to do. It is our duty to declare what the law
is, not to make law. . For myself, however, I
do not hesitate to say, that it was dictated by
wise statesmanship, and has a broad and solid
foundation in enlightened policy, sustained by
sound reason and common sense. The amal-
gation of the races is not only unnatnral, bnt is
I ulwJfys productive of deplorable results. Our
1 daily observation shows ns, that the offspring
F of these unnatural connections, are generally
j sickly and effominato; and that they are in-
i ferior in physical development and strength, to
the full blood of either race. It ia sometimes
urged that sncti marriages should bo encouraged
for the purpose of elevating the inferior not.
The reply is, that snch connections never ele
vate Uio inferior raoe, to the position of the
superior; but they bringdown tho superior to
IJhatof the inferior. They are productive of
e l and evil only, without any corresponding
nd.
T I do not propose to enter into any elaborate
discussiop of the qneation of policy at this time,
tint only to express my opinion, after mature
consideration and reflection.
Tho power of the Legislature over the subject
matter when the Code was adopted, will not, I
oppose, be questioned. The Legislature cer-
sinly had as much right to regulate the mar-
I riaga relation, by prohibiting it between per-
| sons of different races, as they had to prembit
I it tietween persons within the Leviticsl degrees,
I or lietween idiots. Both are necessary and prop-
I or regulations. And the regulation now under
I consideration is equally so.
Bnt it baa been urged by tho learned conn-
■ s«l for tho plaintiff in error that the section of
I tho Code under consideration is in conflict with
I the eleventh section of the flint article of the
I Constitution of this State, whiah declares that
I •• The social status of the citizen shall never be
I the subject of legislation.”
In Kb far as the marriage relation is coimect-
I cd with tho social, status, tho very Yfivene is
I tree. That section of tho Constitution forever
r prombits legislation of any character; regulat-
Mffig or interfering with, the social status. It
I leaves social rights, and status, where it finds
I them. It prohibits the Legislature from ro-
I pealing any laws in existence, which protects
persons in tho free regulation among themselves
of mattere properly termed sooial, and it also
I prohibits the enactment of any new laws on
that subject in future.
As illustrations: The laws in force when the
CoBStitution was adopted, left tho churches in
this State free to regulate matters connected
with • social status in their congregations, as
they thought proper. They could say who
should enter their church edifice's and occupy
their eeats, and in what ordor they should bo
classified or seated. They could say that females
I should sit in one part of tho church, and males
in another; and that persons of color, should.
■ * “ ’i seats as were set
ected
_ i now
I I'onstitutiOn forever guarantees this protection
I M' .lonying to the Legislature the power to pass
f ray law withdrawing it; or regulating the social
I status in such assemblages.
| And I may hero remark that precisely tho
same protection ia guaranteed to the. colored
churches, in the regulation of social status in
their assemblages, which is afforded tho whites.
S'cithcrwan ever intrude upon the other, or in
terfere with their social arrangements without
their consent.
The same is true of railroad, and steamboat
companies, and hotel keepers. By tho law in
cxistenoe at tho time the Constitution was
cd, they wore obliged to furnish comfi
and convenient accomodations, to tho oitent of
their capacity to aoeommodato all who applied;
'without regard to race or color. Bnt they wero
-not compelled to put persons of different races,
I or of different sexes, in the cars or in the same
apartment j or to seat them at tho same table,
t This was left to their own discretion. They had
I power to it-gnlateJkaccoiding to their own no-
I tions of pfoprie^^fcid to classify their guests,
1 ssongers, according to race or sex; and to
E th'em at hotels in difterent houses, or dff-
t parts of the same house; or on railroads
IJLm different ci^S; or on steamboats in different
I parts of the vessel; and to give them their meals
I at different tables. When they had made pub-
I he these regulations all persons patronizing
I them were bound to conform to them. And
I those who did not like their regulations must
I seek accommodations elsewhere. There was no
I law to compel them to group together m social
j Connection, persons "who did not recognize eacn
I other as social equals.
I To avoid Cnlliipnng and strife, and to preserve
I peace, harmony, and good order in society, the
| new Capitation hag wisely prohibited the I'Og-
I islature from enacting laws, compelling these
I. companies to make new social arrangements
I among their patrons or to disturb those in exis-
I tenoe. •Jhel aw fthall stand as it is, says the
f Constitution, leaving each to regulate such mat-
I ters as they thiuk best, and there shall be no
l legislative interference. All shall be comfort-
E accommodated, bnt yon shall not be com-
| Tilled by law, to force social equality, either
upon your trains, your boats, or your hotels.
I The same remarks apply to the regulation of
! social 8tata3 among families, and to the social
intercourse of society generally.
This, in my opinion, is one of the wisest pro
visions in the Constitution; as it excludes from
in nnomer; «mu uiuv
if thoy attended, occupy snch seats as were
apart for them. In all thin they were proto
l>y the cotnmon law of this State. The
tha halls of the Legislature, a question which
was likely to produce more unprofitable agita
tion, wrangling and contention, than any other
subject within the whole range of authority.
Government has full pow£r to regulate civil
and pobticid rights, and to give to each citizen
State, as our Code has done, equal civil
political rights, as well as equal pro-
toction of the laws. But Government bag no
P owe ^ to regulate social status. Before the
laws the Code of Georgia rank a# all citizens
oqnal, without regard to raoe or color. But it
does not create, nor does any law of the State
attempt to enforce, moral or social equality be-
tween toe different races, or citizens of toe
State. Such equality does not, in fact, exist,
and never can. The God of Nature made it
otherwise, and no human law can produce it,
and no human tribunal can enforce it. There
are gradations and classes throughout the uni-
▼«ree- From toe tallest Arch-Angel in Heaven
down to the meanest reptile on earth, moral and
social inequalities exist, and must continue to
exist throughout all eternity. -
'While the great mass of too conquering peo-
plo of the States which adhered to theUnion.
during the late civil strife, have claimed toe
right to dictate the terms of settlement, *r»d
have maintained in power, those who demand
that the people of toe States lately in rebellion,
shall accord to the colored race equality of civil
rights, including too ballot, with the same pro
tection under toe laws which are afforded the
white race, they have neither required of ns
toe practico of miscegenation, nor have they
claimed for toe colored race social equality
with the white nice. The fortunes of war have
compelled ns to yield to the freedmen toe legal
tights above mentioned; bnt we have neither
authorized nor legalized the marriage relation
between toe races, nor have wo enacted laws,
or placed it in toe power of toe Legislature
hereafter to make laws, regulating the social
status, so as to compel our people to meet the
colored race on terms of social equality. Such
a state of things could never be desired by toe
thoughtful and reflecting portion of either race.
It could never promote peace, quiet, or social
order in any State, or community. No such
laws are of force in any of the Northern States,
so far as I know, and it is supposed, no con
siderable part of the people of any State desire
to see them enacted. Indeed, the most abso
lute and despotic governments do not attempt
to regulate social status by fixed laws or to en
force social equality among races or classes
without their consent.
As already stated, we are of toe opinion that
tho section of the Code which forbids intermar
riages between the races, is neither inconsistent
with, nor is it repealed by, tho section of the
Constitution now under consideration.' It,
therefore, stands npon the statute book of tho
State forever prohibiting all such marriages and
declaring them to be null and void.
Let tho judgment of toe Conrt la-low be
affirmed.
AVhcn too Chief Jostiee had delivered the de
cision—
JUDGE McOAY spoke as follows:
In the decision which has just been pronounc
ed, I ngreo with toe judgment of the court, and
with the general tenor of the reasoning* of the
Chief Justice.
I wish to say, however, in order that I may
not be misunderstood, that I place the judgment
wholly upon the ground that the law prohibiting
marriage relations between persons of color and
whites is not a law having any reference to the
social status of a citizen.
The Legislature has the same right to enact
snch a law that it has to say how close shall be
the degree of consanguinity to make a marriage
void; or, to regulate tho ages of the parties—to
say how old the person shall bo ; ana, in fact,
the regulation of a civil contract, describing
who shall and who shall not enter into it, or be
tween what parties it shall be void, has nothing
to do with tho social status of the citizen.
If the law, making illegal tho marriage rela
tion between whites and blacks, were a law
regulating the social status of too citizen, I am
not prepared to aay that it would not, by the
very terms of the Constitution, be inoperative,
as contrary to the Constitution. In my judg
ment there were no such laws in operation, and
it was tho intent of the Convention to declare
that none ever shopld bo passed. The social
status of the citizen is not the subject of legis
lation and ought not to be.
A Voice from Africa.
AH VICK TO THS COLORED PEOPLE OT T11X SOUTH.
Movkovia, Lthzeia, January 3, 1869.—I have
lived now in this home of the African nearly
twenty years; but I have not forgotten the old
scenes in Virginia, nor the kindness of many
whito friends in former days. I wish it was in
my power to return for a time, that my voice
might be heard by my colored brethren of the
Southern States.
I am anxious for their fate. As I sit here, on
toe shores of this continent filled with a native
black population, and look across the great wa
ters over your continent filled with whito men,
I cannot but be fearful in regard >to toe future
of the Yaw mill inns of people of my own blood
in the South, now left to their own resouroes.
I seo a tiilo of white men ponring over those
fields which have,heretofore fed them; a tide
coming from the overflowing population of the
Northern States and Europe. I remember how
that tide, when alow and feeble, swept off toe
native Indiana; and now, as it rushes in its
might, what is to shield the transplanted Afri
can from its waves ? I can think of but one
hope for him.
If as a body, the colored people of the South
shall identify themselves with toe whito people
who now occupy and hold too soil, gain their
affection and confidence, and becomo useful
members of their communities, they may float
above tho torrent and Stillwell in peace among
the associations of the past; otherwise they
must, in the lspse of years, be buried beneath
it, or washed, like drift-wood, into the burning
zone around tho Equator. And yet toe occa
sional letters and papers wo receive here from
tho United States tell us that political demago
gues from the North, peddling politics for their
own profit, are exciting our race to hostility to
wards too whites. If they shall become toe
dupes of such emissaries their fate is sealed.—
The scattered white men on this continent of
Africa might as well array themselves against
the native tribes of black men, with the expec
tation of meeting anything but destruction in the
pursuit of snch folly.
I feel some confidence that the more intelli
gent portion of the people of color will not bo
led astray by adventurers who will use them
while they reap any personal profit from pre
tended friendship, and desert them when they
please. But tho mass have not had time to
learn lessons of political wisdom, and toe pros
pect fills me with sadness. If I could but make
them hear me, I would appeal to them to make
common cause with tho white people of their
own land, to take advico and counsel from snch
men as have-been known to them through their
lives for their high character and honesty and
intelligence, to seek the welfare of tho people
on whom they must depend through all time for
their own prosperity, to do no act which shall
give to the white population- just cause for en
mity, and thus identifying themselves with the
communities in which they dwell, obtain for
themselves the most powerful of allies in the
struggle against those forces which threaten
their very existence. Say this much to to cm
for me. S. W. W.
