THK UNION OF THE STATES, AND THE SUV EH Elll NTY HE THE STATES. Tie Disregard us the Black KepuUian Pari) fur Law It has been wall aud truly said that “ the law is the concentrated majesty of tho voice of tho people.” lie who violates a law, therefore, not only insults, but commits an offence against the people. Tn this flovornmont, especially, arc we called upon to yield obedience to the laws. In no othor way can tho llepublic oxist. Wo have a written Constitution which our fathers made and which wo must observe, if wo expect to pre servo our liberty, our independence, and our Union. That Constitution says: ” No person hold to sorvice or labor in one State, under the laws thereof, escaping into anoth er, shall* in consequence of any law or regula tion therein, be discharged from such service or labor, but shall ho delivered up on claim of the party to whom vueh service or labor may bo due.” Under this provision, tho Congress of 1793 passed, and Hen. Washington approved,a hill for the rendition of fugitive slaves. In iB6O, Con gress amended this bill insomosligbt particulars, not altering its main features, or violating the principlo of the Act of 1793. The man who re fuses to yield obedience to tho Constitution and this law. as well aa othor laws made under Its authority, Is an enemy to his country. Tho Constitution also established the Supremo “Court as tho court of last resort, to interpret the laws of the land, and makes its docisiou obliga- tory upon every cltisen. Uo who, therefore, re fuses to obey itx decision, is an enemy to his country. This matter caunot bo dodged or eva ded. luculcato in the minds of the people a dis respect and contempt for tho laws and decisions of the courts, and our Hoverumcut is destroyed, und might takes tho place of right. Striko down tho bulwarks of the laws and tho courts, and where is the security for lift and property ? Hy what title, then, would tho farmer hold his land, the mechanic his tools, the uierehaut his goods? Hy that title only which the mountain robber of Scotland proclaimed, when bo said that while one shock of grain remained, or cattle grazed on low-land plain, the Haul, to mountain and hea ther heir, with strong urtu will take his share. How important it i* to every citizen that the Constitution and the taws of the country, should be observed and obeyed. The infraction of one inevitably to the infraction of another. It'ono man is Allowed to violate one law on the gr<>und*tbut it conflicts with his ideas of duty under a “higher law,” another man will violate I another law on the sauio pretext, until no law I will be observed, and al! the barriers which Gov ernment has creeled for the preservation ofthe lives aud property of its citizens will have been j broken down, and tbe law of force will then be } inaugurated. Is it not clear, then, that the man who refuse* obedience to tho Constitution and j laws of bis country is an enemy to the. Republic j JuJgod by this standard, where at mid- the Rc j publican party to-day. We ituswer, their candidate for the presidency i not only refuse* tuyicld obedience to tho deels iou ofthe Supreme Court, but actually declares ; his lu tqplion to disregard that decision. In hi ! Chicago speech, July 10, l£h&, he said: j “If 1 were in Congress, and a vote should come j up on a questinn whether slavery should be pro- j hibited in anew Territory, in spite of the Dred Seott decision, l would vote that it should.” Having thus set the example of disobedience t” the Supreme Court, it it uot strange that his i subporters should runoff in the same channel. - Mr. Hnmner advising resistance to the fugi- ‘ live star** mw in a m nvxmi, t>. { said : “The good eituon, a* lie reads tho require- I incuts of this act (relative to fugitive slaves,) is j tilled with horror. * Here the path of dutv i* (dear. I am bound to \ disobey this act.” * * * “ Sir, X will not dishonor this home us the l’ilgrim.H, and of tho Revolution by admitting I nay, I cannot believe that this bill ho executed j here.*’ Again in the Senate of the United States, wo sec him again reiterating his determination not to obey the law. Mr. HutloV, of Smith Carolina, a.-kod, “Ifwe repeal the fugitive slavolaw, will Massachusetts execute the provision of the Con stitution without any law of Congress ? Will this honorable Senator [Mr. Sumner j tell me that he will do it I'” To which Mr. Sumner replied : “ I* thy MVtVnt a dog, that ho should do this thing’” Mr. Duller continued. “Then you would not obey the Constitution. Sir, standing here before this tribunal, where you swore to support it, you rise and tell me that you regard it tbe office of a dog to enforce it. You staad in toy presence as a co-equal senator, and tell uio that it is a dog's office to execute the Constitu tion of the United States?” To which Mr.Hum tier said : “1 recognize no such obligation.” -Thus, sir, tbe thriee execrable fugitive slave law, with its catch-pole bevy of slave-hunting commissioners and debuty marshals, bucouiss a nullity and uuisancu--tbo villiunou* coucoction of slave-holding usurpation and dough faced sub serviency—*nd dissolve* like stubble before the devouring fire.” The Hon. Hidnt-y Dean, of Ohio, in his speed) in the Ilouae, July 23, lHifl,gpoke iu the same strain: “Tho fugitive slave law is dead, it needs must die, sir; the Christian men in the model Republic will not be bloodhounds to catch men. X tell gentlemen, in tho honest convictions of my heart, that my constituents, neither iu thought, word, nor deed, will ever ac qucsce in thus branding our national charac ter with infamy, and will nev r, for themselves, be made the political or personal monstrosity in Republicanism.” On the 11th of March, 1 Hit), Senator Seward, of New York, thus spoke in the Senate : • “All that is just and sound; but ussutniug the same premises- to wit: that all men ato equal by the law of nature and of nations—tbe right of property in slave! falls to the ground , for one who ■ equal lu itie other •unot bo tbo owner or property of that other. But you ans wer that the Constitution recognises property in slaves. It would bo sufficient then, t reply, that ibis Constitutional obligation must be void, be cause it is repugnant to the law of nature and nations.” Again, in hi# Speech at Albany, New York, Uotober 12, ISo-, .Mr. Seward said “It is written intho Constitution of the United Htatek, in violation of tbo divine law. that wo shall surrender tbo fugitive alavo. You blush not at these things because they are familiar as house-hold words.” Still again, in his speech in tbe Senate, March 1869, Mr. Reward thus assailed the Ifred Scott derision and the Supreme Court: “ The Supreme Court also can reverse its spu rious judgment more easily than we can reconcile the people to its usurpation.” “Tho people of the United States never can, and they never will, accept principles so unconstitutional and so abhorrent. Never, never. Let the court recede. Whether it recedes or not, wo shall re organize the court, and thus reform its political sentiments and practices, and bring them into harmony with the Constitution and tho laws of nature.” To the same effect is tho address of the lie publican State Convention of New York, in Oc tober, 1868. “ It if one of the most lamentable features of the present Democrat degeneracy, that It has in vaded even tho sanctuary of justice, and from tho scat once honored by Jay, Rutledge, Klls wortb, and Marshall, now sirains its equity through the sieve of sectionalism, in accents as barbarous as they are disgraceful to the nation to which we belong and the age in which we live. The infamy of tho Dred Scott decision if but a legitimate sequence to the efforts that have been put forth to seclionalize and pack a tribunal in which onco was centered the respect and confi dence oi the nation!” Senator Wilson, of Massachusetts, seems to have beeD a pioneer in tbe cause of assailing the Supreme Court. It will be remembered that In 2855, in the city a band of abo- COLUMBUS, GEORGIA, MONDAY, JANUARY 7, 1861. lUlonlsts, with Passmore Williamson at their head, rescued a fugitive slavo from the custody ofthe officers of the law. For this* he was tried condemned; and imprueued. Referring to this matter in his speech in Now York, October. ISJo Mr. Wilson said: “ We shall change the Supreme Court if tho l nited States, and place men in that court who believe with its pure and iiumnculate Chief Jus tice, John Jay, that our prayers will be impious to Heaven while wo sustain and support,huuin slavery. We shall free tho Supremo Court of the United States from Judge Kano. And here let too say, there is a public sentiment growing up in this oouutry that regards Passmore Williamson in bis prison, at Philadelphia, as a martyr to the holy cause of personal liberty. I here'is a pub lic sentiment springing up that will brand upon the brow of Judge Katie n mark that will make him exclaim, ns his namesake, tho elder Cain, * It is too great for mo to bear.*” Juilse Appeal, lo tho South. A few reasons now why tho South should quit the Union, and a few answers to the arguments against it, and I have doue. A secession us tho Southern States will insure to thorn domestic peace and rocurity. This is a consideration of infinitely more Im portance than it is generally tuken to be. Lot it lu remembered that disquiet has made its way into our families, and has been increasing fur some time past while we aro in the Union ; and where it will end r if we remain in it, Hod only knows. With every recurring Presidential elec- tion it is to bo renewed, if wo take any part in the contest. It is the everlasting stump speak ing in behalf of rival candidates for Congress and the Presidency, the indiscreet table-talk which it naturally suggests, the inflammatory extracts from Northern xpeechoannd editoriuls constantly paradod in the .Southern press, which bring un easiness in our families—not tho things said and done by the fanatics afar ofl. Now, all this ends w horo tho separation begins. The force of this argument will be tested at tho next mooting of Congress. Mark, if you please, the change und tone of manner which the rank est and most defiant Republicans will assume in that body. If one anti-slavery measure is pro posed by any of them—if ono thtest, or taunt, or dare is thrown out by the rudest and moat rampant oftbetu all, iu contempt of “the pcuuli ur institution"—call mo uo prophet. Our Con gress Halls will no more resound with this topic. Here is a dangerous leak stopped. But 1 have a better argument than all this, it is univer sally understood among nil classes here, that South Carolina will secede from tho Uuion ; uud the effect upon the slaves in this section ofthe State, (L know not how it is bolow,) is just as 1 I said it would boa year ago; and just us it bus J been iu all ages, (aeo Prof. Reynolds’ admirable j article in the lust Delia to .•) and just ns it ever i w ill he, if we treat our servants as Hod’s Word j requires us t > treat them. Seeing cockades j mounted every where, and continual parades, they I think that war is coming certainly ; and nuiu ; hers of them are inquiring whether they will nut |bo permitted to fight with their masters. If not, I they propose to accompany their masters as wait [ ingmen, cooks, Ac. I suppose they think Black Republicans are i negroes, (no great mistake, seeing they love each other so desperately) and tho idea of a parcel of negroes coming hure tu fight “white people,’’ is j against ali their notions ot delicacy, decency aud ! common sense; aud hnving internal evidence | that they are certain tube whipped, they desire to take this honor off their master's bands. Do | thin as it may, all is quiet hero. Tho coral hymn of several of them ha* just died upon mine ear, and l would have no more fear of intrusting my | wife and daughter* t > their euro thau 1 would have in committing them to a brother’s caro. — j (Jet us away from Republican influence* aud wo ! shall dwell together in peace on earth, and i mingle hymns in heaven, is there any thing on this earth, not to say in this Union, which could coinpeuiatc mo fur one week’s alarms ofthe ten- I dor ones of my household?
