intended to protect and does protect the rights,
liberties and privileges of all persons of every
I class who live or come within her jurisdiction ;
| and the said State avers that she has fully met
I the duties and responsibilities of an indepen-
i dent and free State by a system of laws which
' provide for the regular administration of jus-
j tice, for the promotion of industry, and for the
encouragement of all those virtues ou which
the prosperity of a people must depend.
Tt e powers and authorities of the said State
government are defined by a written Constitu
tion. and the officers chosen under it to execute
and enforce it were in full possession of said
government up to tne time when the several j
wrongful facts hereiu complained of were
committed by the defendants. The authority
of said government was universally a*-knowl-
edged, and there was no other person or com-

soverign power of the State should be entrust
ed to these persons only whose honesty and
capacity and the deep interest they had iu the j
public welfare would insure a faithful di?- j
charge of that high duty, and, therefore, while j
the just rights of all persons were carefully j
guarded, no polititical privileges were bestowed j
on children under twenty-one years of age, on !
females, paupers, negroes, convicted felons,
idiots, lunatics, sojourning strangers or for
eigners not naturalised. In effect the said
Stale of Georgia avers that she is, and of
right ought to be, a free and independent
State; that she possesses all the facilities and
powers of self-government except those ceded
to the United States; that in the exercise of
her authority she has organized, for herself, a
political system which secures to her people
and to all persons in her territory the best and
safest protection of their rights which, under
the circumstances, could possibly be given by
them.

• Perchance, when fallen in the strife,
Thy young lips breathed a prayer for life.
Perchance thy heart heaved one deep sigh
To think that thou so soon must die:
But had it been thy lot to know
The coming triumph of the foe.
Hadst thou foreseen, aii rent and riven.
The cause to which thy soul was given,
Foreseen ihe flag, thy guide, thy star,
Trailed low behind the conqueror's car,
Foreseen fierce desolation s stride
O’er the bright land that was thy pride.
Foreseen hill, plaiD, and vale, and wood,
Swept as by storms of fire and blood,
Tne clime where heaven's best blessings fell.
Changed by man’s passions to a hell,
Its homes wh< re joy and love first met
By banger’s bowling wolves bc-3et.
Its human forms like skeletons,
Its streams like ghostly Phlegethons,
Thou wouldst have blessed with latest breath
A kind God for his Angel, Death!”
