T HE MERITS OF THIS
Plow over others, for
the cultivation of both Cot
ton and Corn are many, but
only its lending merits: With four wing:
two small and ; wo large, it can be converted
Into Seven different Plows, all of which arc
very necessary for tho cultivation of dif
ferent < rops. And another very important
feature is durability. A Plow completed
will lust a man from two to five years, accord
ing to the soil he cultivates, and will only
cost about Three Dollars to nut it up. An
Agency will soon be established in Rome,
and then planters will be invited to call nr *

ARTICLE 1.
DECLARATION OF FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES-
1. The fundamental principles of
Free Government cannot be too well
understood, nor too often recurred to.
2. God has ordained that men shall
live under government; but as the
forms and administration of civil gov
ernment are in human, and therefore,
fallible hands, they may be altered, or
modified, whenever the safety or happi
ness of the governed requires it. No
government should be changed for light
or transient causes; nor unless upon
reasonable assurances that a better will
be established.
3. Protection to person and property
is the duty of Government; and a Gov
ernment which knowingly and persist
ently denies, or withholds from the gov
erned such protection, when within its
power, releases them from .the obliga
tion of obedience.
4. No citizen shall be deprived of
life, liberty or property, except by
due process of law; and of life or
liberty only by the judgment of his
peers.
5. The writ of “Habeas Corpus" shall
not be suspended, unless in case of re
bellion or invasion, the public safety
may require it
0. Tho right of the people to keep
and bear arms shall not be infringed
7. No religious test shall be required
for the tenure of any office; and no re
ligion shall be established by law ; and
no citizen shall lie deprived of any
right or privilege by reason of his reli
gious belief.
8. Freedom of thought and opinion,
freedom of speech and freedom of the
press, ure inherent elements of political
liberty. But while every citizen may
freely speak, write or print, on any sub
ject he shall be responsible for the abuse
of the liberty.
9. The right of the people to apfteal
to the Courts; to petition Government
on all matters of legitimate cognizance;
and peaceably to assemble for the con
sideration of any matter of public con
cern—shall never be impaired.
10. For every right, there should be
provided a remedy ; and every citizen
ought to obtain justice without pur
chase, without denial, and without
delay—conformably to the laws of the
land.
11. Every person charged with an
offence against the laws of the State
shall have the pivilego and benefit of
counsel:
Shall be furnished, on demand, with
a copy of the accusation, and with a list
of the witnesses against him:
Shall have compu'
obtain the attendance
nesses;
Shall be confronted with the witnes
ses testifying against him: and,
Shall have a public and speedy trial
by an impartial jury.
12. No person shall be putin jeopar
dy of life or liberty more than one*
for the same offence.
13. No conviction shall work corrup
tion of blood, or general forfeiture of
estate.
14. Excessive bail shall not be re
quired ; nor excessive fines imposed ;
nor cruel und unusual punishments in
flicted.
15. The power of the court# to punish
for contempts shall be limited by Leg
islative Acts.
1C. A faithful execution of the laws
is essential to good order ; and good or
der in society is essential to liberty.
17. Legislative Acts in violation
of the fundamental laws are void;
and the Judiciary shall so declare
them.
18. Ex' post facto laws, and laws im
pairing the obligation of contracts, and
retroactive legislation injuriously af
fecting the right of the citizen, are pro
hibited.
19. Laws should have a general ope
ration ; and no general law shall be va
ried in a particular case by speoial leg
islation, except with consent of all per
sons to be affected thereby.
20. The right of taxation can be
§ ranted only bv the people, and shall
e exercised only to raise revenue for
the support of government, to pay
the public debt, to provide for the
common defence, ana for such other
purposes as are specified in the grant of
powers.
21. In cases of necessity, private
ways, and the right to carry water over
land, for the purpose of mining and
draining, may be granted upon juet
compensation being first paid; and
with this exception, private property
shall not be taken, except for publio
use, and then only upon just compensa
tion—such compensation, except in ea
ses of pressing necessity, to be first pro
vided and paid.
22. The right of the people to be se
cure in their persons, houses, papers
and effects, against unreasonable search
es aud seizures, shall not be violated;

23. Martial law shall not be declared,
except in cases ot extreme necessity.
24. Large standing armies in time of
peaoo are dangerous to liberty.
25. No soldier shall, in time of peace,
be quartered in any house without
the consent of the owner; nor in time
of war, but in e manner proscribed by
bonajido all bis estate for the use of his
creditors.
27. Tho enumeration of rights here
in contained shall not bo construed to

whioli they nave hitherto enjoyed.

Constitution, and shall never be violat
ed on any pretence whatever.
