To ths Ifoum of Hspre*ntnt>i*A : I hew*
with return to vour honorable body, in wliifli
it originated, the bill entitled “an act to pro
vide for a special election for Govern* r, lo
fill the unexpired term of Rufus B. Bull*** k.
late Governor, and for other purposes/* wftli
tuy diaaent lo the tame and the reasons there
for.
I have not Adopted this course without the
greatest consideration.
Ah the object of this bill to to fill the or.ex-
pired term of Governor Bullock, which at
the time of hia resignation devolved by the
Constitution upon myself, my personal pride
would impel nie promptly to affix my signa
ture to it, since to refuse eo to do, is to p it it
in the power of those disposed to judge
harshly to attribute my action to interested
motive*. But however much I may feel in
dined, by giving the bill my awM iit, to repel
such imputations. 1 must in this, as tn ait my
official actions, be guided by my judgment
rather than my pride.
Indeed, it cannot but occur to every think
in* man that if the Constitution authorize?
unseemly a proceeding as that present*d
by the 1411 under consideration, in which the
Executive of the £tate is called upon to nit in
F'demw judgment upon tbe question of the
pr pri y or impropriety of terminating hi*
own otiicial existence—tbe Constitution is in
tliih respect, at least, anomalous. It is a set-
0*4 rule, both of law and of common sense
that »wo man thould be compelled or penult
not only
tors leads one to lodge in his own favt
brcaiMie a proud man would prefer to sac ri
fie- bis own rights rather than subject him
seif to the suspicious of ungenerous critics]
In ho important a law as that now proposed!
tie- people are entitled to the free judgment!
of both the legislature and tbe Executive.
Nothing in more carefully guarded against
in the Constitution than the happening r.f a
contingency in which a public officer shall be
come personally interested in the exercise of
the duties of bis office.
If the Governor be impeached, even, the
President of the Senate is, upon the trial, to
vacate his seat, since, if conviction takes
place, he hocoiu'8 clothed with the functional
tbe Governor.
The Judges of the Supreme Court, if ini
tereated in a case Wore them, are tempora
rily displaced by Circuit Judges selected by
the Governor. If a case arise in which d
Judge of the ^Superior Court is interested
the luw provides that he shall not preside]
And, generally, by tbe Constitution and laws,
by the rules of legislative bodies, t
common consent of all publicits, it
l*i* vc said, a settled rule that no one shall be I
I>ei milled or compelled to exercise bis public I
functions in a matter directly involving his
own interests. Were die duty imposed a
mere ministerial one, in which I was called
upon simply to do an act, in which ll M
bound by my oath of office to exerc ise my I
pidgment, the case would be different.
I have said thus much liecause I cannot but
feel that the General Assembly in ti*e pas
sage of this bill has not fully considered the
pwllH in which it places myself; and be
cause I cannot think so strange an anomaly
as its presentation to me for my signature
was ever contemplated in the Constitution r '
the State.
The Constitution, article four, section one
paragraph four is as follows: “ In case ol
the death, resignation or disability of the
Governor, the President of the Senate shall
exercise the Executive powers of the Govj
eminent until such disability be removed, p
a successor is elected and qualified. Ami
case of liie death, resignation or disability
the President of the Senate, the Speaker I
the House of Representatives shall c^ejcifl
the Executive powers of the Government tic]
til the removal of the disability, or die elec]
tion and qualification of a Governor. Tin
General Assembly shall have power to pro
vide bv law for filling unexpired terms by »
special election.”
Without doubt it is upon the last sentence
of this quotation from the Constitution that
this founded.^^^^^^^^^^^^^^H
Tbe bill is entitled “an act to provide for
a special election for Governor, to fill the
unexpired term of Rufus B. Bullock, late
Governor, and for other purposes.” ll pro-1
vides that an election shall be held ou u
fixed day, to-wit: The third Tuesday ill
December, eighteen hundred and seventy-]
one, for that jnirposc.
In my judgment, the clause of the Consti]
tut ion referred to does not authorize, oi
justify, such a law. The language is, “Thu
General Assembly shall have power to pr<»-L
vide by law for filling unexpired terms by a
*j*cciai election.”
It was contemplated that the General As
sembly should provide, by a general law, not
for filling a particular unexpired term, hut
for tilling MOM terms iremrally. No
man ran read this language of the Constiiul
tion without feeling that it is a very strained]
construction, to say the least of it, to hold
that it authorizes a special law for a spt-ciail
case. The language is unsuited to such an
idea. The word terms indicates clearly that!
a general law is meant, passed in view of the
general public jpiod, and looking to future
vacancies, and nffit to one that has already
occurred. The action now taken can only
la* culled a law by courtesy. It is rather an
order than a law, as is indicated by the con
stant use of that term when speaking of it in
common conversation. It dpcs not provide
for future events, but for one past event.
I'pon ilie resignation of Governor 15:. l lock]
I was informed thereof by the Secretary ol]
State, and. on the 30th day of October of tins
year, in pursuance of section one hundred and
twenty-seven of the Code of Georgia, I ap-
1 eared at the capitol and took the oath of of|
lire, and the same was entered upon the min
utes of the Executive office, as required by]
the section of the Code just cited. That oath
was in these words, as pit-scribed by the Con
stitution. “I do solemnly swear that l will!
faithfully execute the office of Governor of
tiie Slate of Georgia, and will, to the bestr
my ability, preserve, protect and defend the
Constitution thereof, and of tl
f the United States
of America.
At the time I took said oath there was no
law in this State for filling unexpired guber
natoriat terms by a special election. The
Constitution was the only law. That con
ferred the office upon the President of the
Senate, until the regular election for a Gov
ernor, in the inode' and at the time therein
provided.
Is it competent for tho General Assembly,
under the clause authorizing it to provide by
law for filling unexpired terms, to order an
election, by a special act, to fill a tenu al
ready filled according to the Constitution?
Section twenty-six of article one of the
Constitution provides that “Laws shall have
a general operation, and no general law, af
fecting private rights, shall be varied in any
particular case by special legislation, except
with the free consent, in writing, of all per
sons to be affected thereby.”
At the time Governor Bullock resi/Tisd,
and the oath to “ execute the office of Gov
ernor of the State of Georgia” was admin
istered to me, it was the general law that the
President of the Senate should exerrU<‘ :be
duties of Governor until the regular election,
and It is not competent for the General As
sembly, by a special law, to vary this general
law so as to affect a case occurring before the
enactment.
Now, is there any significance in this argu
ment ? in the use of the word “special elec
tion," in the danse referred ta The Consti
tution. in article two, section eleven, provides
that the election of Governor, mem tiers of
Congress and of the General Assembly shall
be held at the same time, to-wit: on the Tues
day after the first Monday in November.
The election of a Governor is also provided
in article four, section one, paragraph two of
the Constitution, to be held on the Tuesday
after the first Monday in November, quad
rennially, at the places for holding general
elections. Anv election to fill an unexpired
term, must necessarily, though provided for
by a general law for all such cases, lie a
“s-pecial election,” since it is held at a differ
ent time from the “general election.” tow it:
some time regulated by the law for tilling
unexpired terms.
Had the intent been to authorize the Gen
eral Assembly to provide for filling a panic
ular unexpired term, after it had occurred, it
seems to me the language used would have
been very different. The Constitution would
have said. “Tbe General Assembly shall have
power, by special law, to provide for filling
an unexpired term by a special election "
A power to provide by law for filling un-
expired terms by a special election, net Wa
rily involves a general survey of such case*,
and especially, does it involve the free cxer
cisc of judgment by the Legislature and by
the Governor. This free judgment cannot
be had in a special law for a special case,
when the passage of it involves the official
existence of the Executive. He can give no
free judgment in the matter, since he is ne
cessarily interesttnl in the event
No proper provision can be made law for
such a cast. after the occasion has arisen, be
cause ooe A the elements of every law—the
live judgment of the Executive upon it* pro
priety—c -.nnot be obtained, and because ib*
pflfltftge involves the violation of that clause
«*f the Bill of Bights which prohibits the
varying of a ge neral law by special enact-
m*nt, when private rights are thereby to be

“After the first flection, the Governor shall

sembly, on the Tot-day after the first Mon

by law, which election ‘■hall be held at the

ia prescribed for the election of mem
beraof the Ofsttil Assembly.

Iffy, in such manner as chad be presented by
law.”
1 am aware of the claim that tfce9c provi
•ion* do not apply to special elections to fill
unexpired terms; since it is contended tbe
power to provide by law for filling such
terms includes the m«xle by which the result
f those elections shall be ascertained and
^closed. But nothing Is more clear to my
rind than titnt all parts of the Constitution
re to lie considered together—that no f art
thereof is to be ignored. Jl will hardly be
tended thst this power to provide by law for
filling unexpired terms is to be construed as
(bough it stood alone. May the General
Assembly, in the exercise of this pow
who sliall vote at the election ? Who should
eligible to the office? Who shall ope
the returns, declare the result and decide tbe
controversy if there lie no majority, or if the
election be contested ?
It seems to me that the clause conferrin
the power to provide by law for filling unex
pired terms by special election,is to i-c read and
understood with thia qualification—that the
General Assembly, in the exercise of the
power, is to be rcstrainedand counteracted by
an}- other part of the Constitution aj>| licahle
to the mailer. As the Constitution fixes tb<
3 unifications of voters, the eligibility of can
idateg and the mode of transmitting and
opening the returns and declaring the result
as it provides that the person elected shall
have a majority of the votes cast; and what
shall happen if no one receives that maj<
ly ; and also provides what body shall decide
die controversy, if there be a contested elec
tion. As all these things are provided for ‘
detail in the Constitution, and are, by the ex
press words used, declared to apply to every
election for Governor, it is a very unfair con
•traction to say that th< y apply only to th
regular quadrennial election, and not to the
special elections to lie provided for by law
for filling unexpired terms.
The true rule of construction would lx*,
I think, that every provision in this para
graph not positively inconsistent with the
clause authorizing the General Assembly
provide by law for filling unexpired terms,
intended to apply to the case of special elec
tions. There is the same necessity for ail
provisions in one case as in the other, and I
can sec no reason for them in the case of a
general election that dors not apply equally
to special elections.
in this way only can all parts of the Con
stitution he made to stand.
The pr*ragraph I have quoted requires the
returns of every election to be transmitted
to the Senate on the next day after the or
ganization of the two houses. The two
houses are organized twice in every four
years—once with the incoming regularly
elected Governor, and once two year- There
after. A special'election may lie held and
the returns transmitted to the Senate as pro
vided by the Constitution, on the next day
after the two bouses shall have been organ
ized, only if the vacancy shall happen during
the first two years of the quadrennial tern*.
Here is a solemn provision of the Con-dilu
tion. Wlmt right liras any one to say that it
to to be ignored, especially in a case in which
it can lie obeyed to the letter, and the power
to provide by law for filling unexpired
terms still exist.
True, the powerwiTl lie much restricted, as
it will !»e confined only to such unexpired
terms as happen within the first two years of
the quadrennial term. But if the Constitu
tion can tie obeyed in no other way, the con
clusion is irresistible that such was the in
tention of the framers of that instrument.
A brief sketch of the history of thl- clause
for filling unexpired terms, will indicate that
this was the probable meaning of thc-e who
introduced it
The Gubernatorial term 11:4! long been but
two years. Tbe male of making the 1 eturns,
declaring the result, etc., was a part of the
old Constitution and was in harmony with
the term of office prescribed. It harmonized
with the election, and meeting, and organiza
tion of the General Assembly. Und r pre
vious Constitutions there was no power to
provide by law' for filling unexpired terms by
a special election. The term being but two
years, it was not thought necessary to have
an election in case of a vacancy.
The Comtitntion of 1868 extended the
term to four years, and this clause was ad
ded, no change being made in the inode of
transmitting and opening the returns for the
simple reason that it was not intend- -1 there
should be & special election unless tht. vacan
cy occtured within the first tw'O year* of the
quadrennial term, so that the returns could
Ik* transmitted to the Senate on the x;.-xt day
after the organization of the two Houses,
elected at the end of two years from the
commencement of the quadrennial tc. in.
There was, too, an obvious propriety in
having this limitation of the power granted
to stand. For, whilst there w’as great reason
for having a special election by the people, if
the vacancy occurred during the tiist two
years, there was but little reason for ii if the
vacancy occurred during the last two. Be
sides, in one case the vacancy could b ■ filled,
the returns opened, the result declar* d, and
the Governor elect inaugurated at the meet
ing of the General Assembly at the regular
time, whilst, in the other case, a special ses
sion of the Legislature, with all its attendant
expense#*, would be necessary.
This brings me to an objection to the bill
based upon the great expense necessary for
its execution.
The regular election for a Governor occurs
under the Constitution on the Tuesday after
the first Monday in November next, less
than a year from the time fixed by ibis bill
for this ’election.
Should the election contemplated by this
bill take place, the returns can hardly be made
before tbe first day of January 1872, w hich
leaves only abont ten months for ih Gov
ernor to be elected to serve.
It does not become me to say that the du
ties of the office can be as well performed by
the present incumbent, but it cannot escape
the reflection of any man, that the expense
of the election, and more especially, the ex
pense of a special session of the Legislature
to receive the returns, declare the result, and
inaugurate the u-w Governor, will be a large
item and outfit only be incurred for some
very necessary und pressing exigency.
Should the present session be protracted
till that time, it cannot be done at a has ex
pense than ouc hundred thousand dollars,
and should it adiourn to meet again, say by
the second Monday in January, the expense
of mileage and pay of members and • fficers
for the extra session cannot be less ah n one
hundred and fifty thousand dollars. .( the
extra session continue only for a L days,
which is not at all probable*
To incur ao great an expense in the pres
ent embarrassed condition of the finances of
the Mate, for the single purpose of changing,
■for a few months, the incumbent of the Ex
ecutive chair, might, it is true, under some
circumstances, be a public necessity; hut I
may be pardoned for saying that, in my
judgment, such a necessity does no: now
exist.
In looking more closely into the bill under
consideration, I perceive that it is b;> d en
tirely upon the idea I have cndcaw.id to
combat. It takes for granted that the de
tailed provisions of the Constitution for
making, transmitting, opening and < -unting
the return?, etc., do not apply to ap« c i^*l elec
tions, and the bill therefore*purports to pro
vide for said details by enacting that such
proceedings shall be had*as is provided in ar
ticle four, section one, paragraph three of the
Constitution ingase of a regular election for
Governor.
1 assume that this provision would not
have been in the bill unless the General As
sembly was fully satisfied that these provis
ions of the Constitution did not apply to the
case of a special election; and that without
a special adoption or re^-nactment of them
for a special election, there would be no law
at all to provide tor tbe case. I present for
your consideration another objection to the
bill presented for my eigi atore.
By some stio&ge mistake, only noticed by
rovself since tue body of this message was
writ en. and therefore too late to call atten
tion to it in lime for its remedy, it will be
seen that the reference in the bill is to article
our, section one, paragraph three of the Con
stitution. That paragraph provides, not for
making, transmitting and opening the v<*
turns and declaring the result, hut fixes who
shall be ineligible to office.
if-tifft-toM wrreWrbe ilguMlW
anomalous case would present itself oi a law
elect a Governor with no provi.-ioii for a
tribunal to open the returns, declare tae re
sult and announce the same, bkouid article
four, section one, paragraph two, of the Con-
ution, apply lo the case, the law would
that the returns are lo lie transmitted to
the S nate on the day after the two Gomes
shall have been organized. This it is impo
ssible to do, as the two Houses cannot b** or-
guniz«xi umii after the Tuesday after the first
Monday in November, 1872* ut which time
the regular quadrennial election for Governor
takes place.
For these reasons I refu^ to sanction the
hill and respectfully re-turn it.

South Carotins Bankrupt
Our unfortunate *.i?ter State is undoubtedly
bankrupt, if she undertakes to pay the debt
which the scamp Scott and his confederates
in crime are endeavoring to fix upon her.
The debt, according to tlie admR-ion of
these rascals, t Item selves, amounts to the
enormous sum of $JG,fc&7,000, and nothing to
how for it
Besides this, we see, by the late news, that
a claim for one dollar has been refused pay
ment at the Treasnry at Columbia, for want
of funds.
In this alarming state of things the tax
payers of this State are beginning to inquire
what is the remedy ?
We are glad to see a communication in the
Charleston Courier, from Hon. A. P. Aldrich,
of Barnwell, colling upon the chairman of
the late Tax-Payers Convention to recon
vene that body.
We hope this convention will meet again
and take decisive measures.
There is but one course left, and that is for
the tax-payers to make common cause, and
refuse payment of taxes, and then let the
law take its course.
In the communication above referred to
Judge Aldrich gives some very good ideas as
to tbe practical working out of a refusal to
pay taxes.
But we b< g to add a suggestion or two.
Suppose ail tax payers refuse to pay. Then,
as a matter of course their property would
be levied on and advertised for sale. Then
let a committee be ap]>ointed in each county,
to select a dozen or more insolvent men to at
tend the sale, and when the first piece of
property is put up for sale, by the sheriff, let
these insolvent men commence to bid on it,
and continue to run it, even to Bullions if
necessary, until the lawful hours of sale ex
pires, when the sheriff would have to suspend
until next sale day. Thb would prevent
even the fint piece of property from being
sold, and, of course, the sheriff could not go
any further on his list.
If the tax lists were re-advertised for next
sale day, repeat the process, and so on ad in
finitum.
I; is no new idea of onrs. A similar thing
was done long ago in this county, where an
administrator undertook to sell out n large
part of this city under an old claim, and was
defeated by our citizens by tlie process de
scribed above.
There is in this no resistance to 1 iw, but
simply the tax payers availing themselves of
their legal rights We make the suggestion,

Melancholy Poets.—A gentleman lec
turing on “cheerfulness” says that most
American poe’ry is of a melancholy charac
ter. ‘Our poets arc sad and dusky winged
birds of song. In his experience with the
manuscripts of yon ns? poets, lie bad been sur
prised to find how many under twenty years
of age had wrote on melancholy themes, of
which he gave examples. 4 The Closing
Tombs,’ ‘Th** Bleeding Heart,’ ‘The Wretch
edness of Life,’ ‘To Hetodius on Receiving
the Head,’ ‘The Worm and the Bud,’ ‘Crush
ed Affect ions.’ This mode of amusing the
people is at least peculiar.”—Aye.
