THE ATLANTA WEEKLY. SUN THE DAILY SUN Thdbsday Mobnixg. .. July 27. The Louisville, JKy., Courier- Journal Agaiu. get the power, to set them aside ? If you do, how will you do it ? In tlie issue of the paper (which heads this article) of the 22d inst, is an editorial addressed to us in a tone and a spirit which commend it to our most serious consideration. We re gret that our space will not allow its reproduction in full in our columns. This is always the Lest method of securing full, free and fair discussion upon all subjects where the as certainment of truth is the object. It is the course we usually adopt, but in this case we can, for the reasons stated, only allude to the general line of argument pursued by the Courier- Journal, and then reply distinctly to the two categorical questions pro pounded. The Courier-Journal, then, argues as if our object was Revolution, and maintains that the setting aside of the “ fraudulent amendments” to the Constitution would be Revolution. To this we say, by no means. It , would only be the arresting of a Rev olution concocted, designed and noio Icing carried on to overthrow the entire fabric of free institutions on this continent. Were not the whole Reconstruction measures, of which these 14th and 15th Amendments, so called, are but the iniquitous offspring, openly and avowedly Revolutionary in their char acter ? Did not over two millions six hundred thousand of American free men so declare at the polls in 1868, (the editors of the Courier-Journal in the number) ? Did they not pro claim that these measures were “unconstitutional,Revchttionary, null and void ?” And world not three hundred thousand more of the same freemen have pronouneed the same stern judgment, constituting a majori ty of the voters in the United States, if they had not bee®, wantonly and grossly disfranchised by as unserupu lous usurpations of power as are to be fonnd in the annals Of civilization? Is this rhetoric, or is itifact? Then, if these three hundred and more thousands of freemen, now no longer disfranchised, shall go to the polls in 1872, and with the unbroken phalanx of the undaunted cohorts of their comrades of 1868, and such patriotic aids as may come from the ranks of their opponents, who now see clearly wliat they did not in 1868 —the real designs of the Revolution ists—shall pronounce a popular judg ment against these acts of usurpation, and their authors; how, in the name of reason and justice, can this be said to be a Revolution ? It will, indeed, be a Revolution in one sense. A Rev olution of had. mm out of. office and good ones in their stead. It will be such a Revolution as Hampden, Pym and Coke effected in England when they arrested the levy of sliip money, abolished the Count of Star Chamber and restored the writ of habeas cor pus—such a Revolution as Jefferson and the Democracy effected in this country in 1800, .when they put the seal of everlasting condemnation, upon the infamous alien .and sedition, acts. • ilt will be such a ^Revolution ist the (entire body politic &s was effected in the person of the one from whom the •devils were driven cut ? As he was restored to his right mind by the Revolution thus effected in him, so will .our country, now distracted by, the evil spirits tormenting it he re stored .to its right mind and right ful action by that sort of Revolution we propose. But, says ike Courier- Journal We mean that the people of the United States at the polls shall refuse to vote for any man for any office, high or low, State or Federal, who hold the doctrine that the Constitu tion of tlie United States has been, or can be rightfully or validly amend ed by * gross usurpation” and ac knowledged “fraud, perfidy and vio lence /” We mean that when a ma jority of the House of Representatives in Congress shall he elected on this sound Constitutional basis that they shall pay not the slightest regard to that flagitious crime against the Constitution and the liberties of the country, known as part of the 14th Amendment, so called,which attempts to fix other “ qualifications” for mem bers of the House than those pre scribed in the Constitution. Lord Coke said: “Parliament cannot create disabilities.” So we say, and so we would have each House of the Congress of the United States to de clare ; and we would have the four millions of the voters of the United States, who hold the same opinion, so to declare their judgment at the polls; and vote for po man who does not hold the same opinion! Just so with the office of Chief Magistrate. We mean that the same overwhelming majority of the people of the United States who feel and know that these “ interpolations” in the Constitution are nothing but the results of usurpation and fraud, shall vote for no man who holds that the Constitution can be rightfully or val idly so amended. In like manner, precisely as the Democracy did in 1800 in the election of Mr. Jefferson, on the validity of the alien and sedi tion acts. Just as the Democracy then triumphed and rescued the Govern ment in its fatal tendency to central ized despotism, so we mean that the Democracy in 1872 should do. This is their high mission, if they could but prove themselves to he equal to its grand requirements. This is how we propose to get rid of these great frauds called Constitutional Amend ments. the Democracy of the Union to rally as one man in the great struggle of 1872. It is not for or against“negro suffrage,” or “negro civil or political gbts,” the rally should be made; but against those who are for tearing down the whole frame work of Feder al Institutions. In this struggle, in onr judgment, the motto of the Democracy, em blazoned on their every banner from Maine to California should be the ords of Chatham on a memorable occasion. This was on the ques tion of the “disability” of the House of Commons pronunciamento against the right of Wilkes to hold a seat in that body. “A breach has been made in the Constitution; the battlements are dismantled; the citadel is open to the first invader; the walls totter! “What remains, then, but for us to “ stand foremost in the breach, to re pair or perish it ?” A. H. S. IL Mr. Stephens; after you have got rid of the amendments, what do you mean to do with the negro? Having de prived him of the guarantees contained in the amendments, will you deprive him of suffrage and civil rights? And, in this latter event, what is your general idea to the disposition that ought to be made of him? SUN-STROKES. — &§?* It is officially announced that dark hair is again about to como into fashion. (.1 Mormon: Politics in Arkansas. The Dardanellee {Ark.) Chronicle, in a late issue, amongst other like sentiments, utters the following: If the Northern Democracy choose to accept the late “so-called” amendments to the Constitution, they can do so; bnt we are still opposed to them, at all times and under aU circumstances. If they choose to abandon the old, well-tried, time-honored landmarks, they can do so; we will not now nor ever follow after them. If they choose to become Republicans to defeat Republicans, or Radicals to defeat Radicalism, they can just do so; we will none of it. If the Northem'people are too corrupt, too ignorant, too unfit for self-government, and must needs have a strong government—a government chang ed from what it was in 1861, a govern ment consolidated and centralized at Washington, in a Congress or in a Presi dent, they can just fix it that way; we will spurn it and spit upon it {still, and call aloud for heaven and earth to witness the betrayal of constitutional liberty.

We waotdigliter taxes. W-e-want a less expensive .and less corrupt administra tion. We want a more national and tol erant spirit. We want to eheck the course both of .corruption and revolution by that' neeessary displacement in the governing party which, whilst furnishing occasion and material for reforms, re minds leaders and public men of .their .dependence on the people and their «obli- igation to the State. To this we say, iliat is exactly what we want to do. We want to check the course both of corruption and Revolu tion by the necessary displacement of A the governing party, &e.; bnt we ask, in all earnestness, can this be ex pected to be done on any rational principles, by indorsing, approving and sanctioning the admitted Revolu tionary acts of the Governing Party ? How is the Revolution, then, in pro gress, to be checked by sanctioning its worst acts, and following in shouts of approval on the line of its progress ? Now to the Courier-JournaVs spe cific questions: * I Mr Stephens; tell ns precisely what yon mt-Mii hy refusing to recognize the validuv of tlie Fourteenth and Fifteenth am**ndDo you mean, when you We mean to do with the black popu lation just as with any other class of 1 the population in the country—that is, leave their status—their rights, civil and political—with the States wherein they reside respectively.— Their freedom is forever guaranteed, to them hy the 13th Amendment to the Constitution, which was right fully and validly adopted by all the States most deeply interested in the subject. As to suffrage and what extent of civil or political rights shall be extended to this class of popula tion, these are questions for eaeh State to determine for itselfi Con gress has no more rightful control over them than over woman suffrages, Indian suffrage, or the civil or politi cal rights of any other class of popu lation in the respective States. This is our view of this subject briefly given. Our general idea as to the disposi tion of this class of population is that it ought to be dealt fairly and justly by, in all the States; and that all rights, civil and political, ought to be secured io them by eaeh State respectively, as they shall prove themselves fit lo have awarded them. As a Georgian, we have no disposition to interfere in the slightest degree with the policy that Massachusetts or Connecticut, or Kentucky or Pennsylvania, or New York, may adopt, each for itself, in regard cto this race. We only protest that neither nor all of these States shall interfere with that policy which Georgia, tether “wisdom, moderation, and justice” shall determine is for the best interest* of both races, within her limits and jurisdiction. She has her self, by her owsj act, and in good faith, ‘orever, guaranteed their freedom; aad we doubt not will also forever award them all their rights which they may prove themselves to be fit to exere^e for the best interests of soci ety. These are questions, however, which, in no way rightfully belong to Federal politick—and the taking ju risdiction of them by the Federal Government, is iteelf the essence of centralism. It is against this usurpation of Power—gross, wanton and destruc tive to our American system of local State government, that we would have If they say we only mean to quiet onr own people by crying out "dead issues,” “accomplishedfacts,” “acceptingthesit- uation,” the till democracy can get control of the government, and then they will set about changing what they pledged themselves to acquiesce in and abide by; what we have to say is: that all this is worse than telling lies, it is acting lies in the face of the world, and we, for one, will have nothing to do with it. The South is too pure, too virtuous, too pat riotic, too intelligent, too republican, too democratic even, to be caught in any such company, or of being guilty of any such duplicity and falsehood. Such log ic is too shallow and too inconsistent to deceive her, for her to give it up, for any earthly consideration whatever. * * The South falls into the arms of her ben efactor, who chastens her, as loving and loved children are chastened, but she will oommend herself to this same great ben efactor, by clinging on to her birthright of constitutional liberty, and never, nev- | ee will she give it up or yield it only with her last agonizing, expiring breath. Never will she yield her principles of fi delity to the glorious old Constitution of onr fathers, till her trne sons have Bkown to the world that there is a people who prefer principle to policy—that there is a a people {who yield not only slaves and property, land and money, but life itself, sooner than betray liberty, sooner than violate a -covenant, sooner than permit her covenant violently to be broken. *-**'* The wealth of North ern Democrats, the keen sagacity and cunning of Northern Democrats, have contributed their part to our woes and onr misfortunes, and their cowardice since the war has become proverbial, for they profess one thing and practice another. They tell us the amendments are uncon stitutional, and then eat their own words by crying out pitiably, “‘We accept the situation.” H©=The "Wisconsin Democrat has select ed Hon.

Columbus. The Sun sets about proving that Columbus is not “a dead town,” and offers a few -convincing arguments, as follows: Since 1866 everything has has been re placed as it was. Many large business houses have been erected. • At least $3,- 500,000 have been invested in cotton and iron establishments alone. The cotton factories ran some 30,000 spindles; the iron works employ some 200 hardy me ehanies. Since 1866 Columbus has ex pended some six millions of dollars re placing and improving what the Yankees destroyed for her, and she has done it with her own capital and that of this sec tion. She has not been aided in the least by the North. Her water power, as regards volume, accessibility and cheap ness of availability, is unrivalled. At Co lumbus the present dam will ran ISOjOOO spindles, and in a space of three miles above, millions can be operated. Host. Alex. H. Stephens of Georgia, has a Sun.—Columbia (Term.)

Cotton, it says, promises abont half a crop. The latter disaster, howev er , should make little difference, as the leaf crop of cotton will bring about much money into the country as a whole one would.

The laws are as fully enforced as they were before the war. His law practice, ho said, covers the counties. He stated, from personal knowledge, that the negroes enjoy all the privileges of the courts, and juries seem rather inclined to favor the negroes. He prosecuted a white man for killing a ne gro, who was convicted of manslnghter and sentenced for the full term of the law. The same court convicted a white man for killing a negro, and he was sen tenced to be hung the first Friday in September. While these trials were pro gressing Twelve V/lflr .Men of Washington Counts/ were arrested and carried one hundred and thirty miles from their homes to an swer before a Federal commissioner, for assault on negroes and, after imprison ment for several days and much expense, they were acquitted.
