So long as the cause which called it into existence continued, and no longer. What was that cause ? This act, and all acts passed by Congress on the subject, declares that it was to suppress an insurrection when it should be so formidable^ that the laws of the United States could not be enforced by ordinary judicial coarse, and this fact was left to the judgment of the President, whose duty ft is to see that the laws of the United States are executed. The President, by Proclamstion, has declared the rebellion suppressed, that peace reigns throughout the United States, and that the laws can be enforced by ordinary judicial course. In other words, that an insurrection did exist on the part of a portion of the people of several States of the Union, that the insur rection has been suppressed, and that the whole peo ple of these States are now (as a portion of them al ways have been,) ready to render obedience to the laws of the United Stares. No treaty followed the suppression of the insurrec tion, because a Government does not treat with^ indi viduals, and the Governraeut of tlie United States throughout the whole of this contest has refused to treat it as a contest with the States, and again, because the people hitherto charged with being .in insurrdk- tiou were citizens of States already bound together by a compact known as the Constitution of the United States, which has never been abrogated ur overthrown and has lost none of its vitality by an unsuccessful attempt to overthrow it, and which is, therefore, now the supreme law of Georgia. By virtue of its power, the Congrt ss of the United States, acting upon the theory of the indivisibility of the Union, treated the State as a State in the Union. The 2d section of the article of the Constitution which declares “represen tatives and direct taxes shall be apportioned among the several States whioh may be included within the Union,” did on the 5th day of August, 1861, pass an act **that a direct tax of twenty millions of dollars be and is hereby annually laid upon the Uuited States, and the same shall be apportioned to the States re spectively in manner, following: Tae State of Georgia, $554,367 for, and a proportion ate amount to each State and territory of the United States, distinguishing as the act States from territo ries; and on the 13th of Jnly, 1862, by an act to amend the judicial system of the United States, the districts of South Carolina. Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi and Florida, were constituted the Fifth Circuit of the United ’States. There are several other sets passed during the rebellion deriving all thefr foroe from the Constitutimi, wherein it defines the legislative power of Congress over tho States of the Union, and which, but for the fact that these States were regarded as in the Union, would have been wholly inapplicable to them. Tho whble theory adopted by Congress and the Executive, aud maintained throughout the entire war, was this: The Union is indissoluble; the practi cal relation of the States to the Federal Government is interrnpted by a rebellion. The whole power of the Government must be used to suppress the rebel lion, that the States may be restored to their practical relations with the Federal Government. Had the peo ple in the disaffected States returned peaceably to their abodes under the first proclamation, the States would have been immediately restored to their prac^ tical relations, and the result followed whenever the President declared the rebellion suppressed. When ever the laws could be enforced in the ordinary judi cial course, the Union was restored, and the Constitu tion proclaimed the relation of the States to the Fed eral Government, rendering legislation on the subject by Congress not only unnecessary, but unwarranted. We have thus endeavored to show that the right to se cede is denied by the General Government, and its construction has been maintained by the sword, and is submitted to by all the States. Has Congress the right to erect a State ? The powers of legislation are defined in the 8th section, and no power is given to Congress to legislate a State out of the Union. And, while by the 3d section oi the 4th article, the Con gress may admit a new Slate formed out of the Terri tory of the United States or foreign territory, there is no clvuse of tl^t instrument by which Congress or any other power can transform a State into a Terri tory. Then, as Georgia was one of the original thir teen States which formed the Union, and could nei ther withdraw from it nor be legislated out of it. her Federal relations were only suspended during the re bellion. She must necessarily continue to be one ot the United States, and as such her relation to the Fed eral Government and to her sister States is defined by the Constitution oi the United States. And this relation cannot be changed, nor the terms of the Con stitution altered in any way, except in pne of the modes provided in that instrument by ^he States themselves. 2d. Are these amendments constitutionally pro posed ? By the 5th article of the Constitution of the United States, two modes are presented for proposing amend ments, one by application oi the Legislatures of two- thirds of the States to the Congress—the other by a vote of two-thirds of the Congress. If proposed, they become amendments when ratified by the Legislatures of three-fonrths <5f the several States, or by Conven tions of three fourths of the States, as the one or the other mode of ratification may be directed by Con gress. Have these Amendments been proposed by two-thirds of the Congress of the Uuited btates? Georgia in conjunction with her sister States, by the 1st section, 1st article of the Constitution declared that “ all legislative powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the Uuited States which ahaii consist of a Senate aud House of Representa tives. The second section prescribes the mode of electing members of Congress, and declares that Georgia shall havo at least three members of the House of Repre sentatives and two Senators, and that her Representa tives shall be increased from time to time on a certain basis therein named, upon which basis of representa tion she is now entitled to seven members in the rep resentative branch. By the 5th article it is provided that she shall never be deprived of her equal suffrage iu the Senate without her consent. Then, by the Constitution of the United States, in virtue of which instrument alone has the Federal Government any right to interfere with her external or internal political relations—the Senatorsand Repre sentatives from Georgia form an integral p&rt of the Congress of the United States. The same reasoning applies to the other ten States whose practical rela tions to the Federal Government were for a time in terrnpted. They were, like Georgia, either •original States by whom the Government was created, or States since connected upon terms™ equality, under roles prescribed by the original. Third. During the war, Congress could be constitu tional! v convened without the Representatives of these States,*’because they were voluntarily absent, and the States failed to elect Representatives. It waa for this reason that the amendments abolishing slavery were constitutionally prepared, and in ratifying them Geor gia yielded no political principle—a material sacrifice was asked of her, and she laid it as a peace offering on tbs altar of our common country. Sinoethe organization of the State Government, Georgia has elected Senators and Representatives; ao hasr every other 8tate. They havo'been arbitrarily re fused admission to their seats, not on the ground that the qualification of the members elected did not con form to the fourth paragraph, second section, first ar ticle of the Constitution, but because their right of representation was denied by a portion of the State* having equal but not greater rignts than themselves. They have in fact been forcibly excluded—and inas much as all legislative power granted by the States to the Congress is dellhed, and this power of exdusion is not among the powers granted expressly or by im plication—the assemblage at.the<»pital of Represen tatives from, a portion of the States to the exclusion of the Representatives of another portion, cannot be a constitutional Conaress, when the -representation at each State forms an integral part of the whole. This amendment is tendered to Georgia for ratifies- tion trader that power In the Goll.titntioD which au thorizes two-thirds of the Confiree. to propose ameniL nents. We have endeavored to establish that Georgia had a right, in the first place, as a part of theGon- grese, to act upon the question: Shall these amend- •nnvifu Via npniinihlflB 1 F,Vl*fV OthCl Fashionable 1 CLOAKS AND SHAWLS, ■ Dress Goods, Hoods, - nd Marseilles Oolite, . -White, Opera and Plaids, Tweeds, Jesus, Cassimeree and Cloths, Bleached Shirtings and Sheetings, Table Damasks and Towellnge, HOfie chUd a " Mni1 * IOr L * dlea '’ Cents’ and A Terr large stock of the abov« goods for sale at the lowest cash prices by ®aWITT A MORGAN, PQl2 137 CONGRESS STBEET.' * insurance.
