THU <0NSTITlTI0X.lL AMENDMENTS.
I prectl or lion. Wm. S. dronbrrk.
We copyao much of lion. Wm. 8. (vroeabeck'
great apcecb, at Steubenville, Ohio, on the nth
is Pint, a* relate* to the Conatitntional Amend
metis and the attitude of partlea nnder thorn.
Tlo rent of the xpeech wax a powerful expos!
tijn of the program of despotism under Grant’
adminintration:
Mr. Groealieek, after a few preliminary re
mark*, local to Ilia occasion, proceeded at fol-
Important change* have lieen madelnonrpo-
litical condition daring the last ten yoarg, ntul
not a few nf onr very l>ftnt citizen* lielicvo we
have gone downward. I don't wonder nt thi*.
The condition of onr people, prior to 1861. was
one of extraordinary contentment and qniet-
ne.«». The peace of the nation bad never been
broken, and the Conalitntion had always com-
a.stub'll respect. Nona of onr aacred right*, a*
wc call them, nneb a* liberty of tho portion, free
dam of apcecb, and the like, had been violated.
I believe the writ of hnhta* carpu* hail not been
suspended prior to 1SCI. Wo sought to admin-
i,t.r I ho Federal Government for general pur
pose*, and tbo State Government for npi .-ini and
home purpose*, and neither bad aerionsly in
vaded the jurisdiction nf tbo other. As onr
father* started, so wo had gone on, peacefully,
steadily, and withont any notloeablo depart
ure. The Governments over ns did not era
Urrsssns. They were in no sense a harden,
and taxation fell as lightly npon onr homes as a
gentle anew. It was a most happy condition
for all of ns who enjoyed the privileges anil
imtnnnilies of citizenship. lint all did not en
joy these privileges and iinnmnities. There
wa* slavery in the land, atmnt one in every nine
of ils inhabitants was n slave. That was onr
danger, troubling onr fathers in the beginning,
and troubling n* always, and more and more.
This bring* mo to notice Iho resolutions of
r.nr recent .Stale Convention aid tho changes
that have taken place in eur political condition
dnriug tho last ten years.
They ore of two kind* :
First.—Changes in the Conatilntion of the
United Slates.
Second —Charges in tbo maimer of adminis
tering the government
What are the changes that have been made in
Ihe Constitution ? They ore threo in number.
Tlie first is this i
No slavery shall exist in tho United States.
KtatEnv cr.EAr.XD away.
When tlie Constitution was ndoptrd slavery
was everywhere, in the North as woll as in ibe
South, and therefore tbo Constitution did .not
forbid it Very soon, however, and from time
to time, the States themselves, acting sepa
rately, abolished it within their respective juris
dictions, till it was to bo fonnd nowhere lmt in
Ihe Sonth, and at lost it was diatnrbod and
threatened there. The Sonth rebelled at this.
War came, a long, bloody, eoally civil war, anil
Ilia rebellion was overwhelmed and slavery <lo-
stroyed.
T Lin resnlt is now declared in tho Constitu
tion. Sncb a declaration was to be expected.
The result* of sncocnsfnl war are always doelar-
rd in somo binding form. If it be a war bo-
Iweon nation*, tbo results appear in the final
treaty; if it be a civil war. they usually appear
in nemo modification of the fundamental lew
conforming it to the now condition of the gov
ernment. Snch ia onr case. Tbo recent Con
stitutional Amendments Blond for tho final
treaty of onr civtl war.
Look nt tbo question in another aspect. IIow
do the Slates now regard slavery ? Ohio has
declared there shall l>o no slavery within her
jurisdiction. Now York has declared it in her
Conatilntion. Pennsylvania has declared it
Every State in the East tml in tho West and in
the North has declared it. Not only this. Every
State in tho Sonth has declared it, and remem
bering onr post, it ia arise and proper that onr
IVdersl Conalitntion should also declare it. Lot
this tronblo be pnt away from ns so that it may
never oorno again.
Till OTIIXR AMENDMENTS.
What ia Uio second change ? In substance,
this :
All persons bora or naturalized in tho United
State* are citizens of the some, and of the Stato
in which they reside. No Slate shall abridge
Ihe privileges or immunities of cilizon* of tho
United States, or deny to any person tho equal
protection of its lairs.
There is also in this amendment a clause dis
qualifying certain citizens for bolding any office
nn.ler the United Slates, or nnder any State;
and another olanse affirming the validity of onr
pnhlic debt, and the invalidity of all rebel
debts. Whit is tho third?
The right of citizens of the United Slates to
volo shall not bo denied or abridged on account
of race, color, or previous condition of servi
tude.
These arc the changes made in onr Constitu
tion daring the last ten years—the famous
am-ndments of which wo have heard so mneb,
and which are so often referred to, even now.
The Thirteenth Amendment, abolishing
slavery thranghont the United Buies, is accept
ed hv all, and in the Sonth a* unanimously os in
the North. The doubt and hesitation have been
about tho Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amend
ments, because of Ihe means used to proenra
their adoption, and because of the change they
make in the relations which bad always existed
between the Federal Government and the State
governments.
In tho language of oar reoent State Conven
tion, the means uaod to procure the adoption of
these two amendqnnts were extraordinary, vio
lent and unsatisfactory. There is no thinking,
right-minded nun who desires that a single
otbor amendment may be nude to tbo Constitu
tion os these were made; for it is impossible to
preserve iU sac redness nnder anoh treatment.
THE srrnXME CornT CANNOT SET THEM ASIDE.
The Constitution should never he lightly
dealt with; nor ahontd it be altered for mere
party advantage, and any amendments pro
posed should be fairly submitted to a free and
unthreatened judgment. Snch was the cose in
reference to all amendments previously made;
such is not the cose in reference to tbeso two
lint I do not care to darell npon the history of
the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments, for
I see nothing in their history that arill destroy
their validity. Yon cannot invalidate legisla
tion by showing it is tainted with frand. It
may be admitted that an act of Congress was
was passed by undue means; that coercion,
bribery, and all kinili of oorrnption wen applied
to effect its passage, and yet the Court cannot
act it aside. The validity of a statute cannot
be impeached on anoh grounds, nor can tho
validity of a constitutional amendment No
ooart boa jurisdiction to inqnira into the eir-
cumsUnces nnder which either area passed.
The only question is, wen they in feet passed.
If they were, all Courts most recognize them.
Could I go into onr Supremo Court and impair
the vitality of an act of Congress by showing
that enough Congressmen to change the resnlt
had boon coaroed to vote far it, or bribed to
vote for it! Clearly, I could not, nor could I
successfully attack a constitutional amendment
on iheae grounds. The Supreme Court has no
supervision over the action of Congress in pass
ing a statute, or over the action of State Legis
latures or State Conventions in adopting a con-
StitatiODlI imPTi^mAn^
It arcnld be unwise to confer npon tbo Su
premo Court snch extraordinary jurisdiction.
The fanlt it not in the mocbicezy of the govern
ment It is os complete as it should be; bat it
is not oooplote enough, and human invention
cannot make it perfect enoogh to prevent or
correct every possible abase, and wo mast de
pend, at loot for the light management of many
important political oonoeras npon the good con
duct of the people themselves. This ia for bet
ter and safer than to trust unlimited power to
any department of the government.
We may not look to the Supreme Court to de
clare these amendments unconstitutional; it
hot no jurisdiction over them. We may not
look to the States to annul them by a farther
amendment; it requires three-fourths of them
to concur in snch a movement; that number
not concur in such a movement. And wo
may not took to the people to oombine to over
throw them in some other way; the people have
already accepted them. Tho destruction of
•laveryli acknowledged and approved by all,
and our oolored population has voted in every
State of the Union, at onr local and general
«.tciions, again and again, and withont chal
lenge or molestation. TLeso amendments will
Suffrage, once granted, cannot be
called; suffrage that has been practised will not
be surrendered. I approve the action of our
recent convention on this subject I regret the
00 unfairness and spirit of domination in which
tome cf these amendments wore carried, and
00 this unfairness and force should always be con
demned, lost they beoome a precedent for the
future. I regret also the tendency to encroach,
ment npon State sovereignty manifested in theee
amendments. Bat the Stale is not destroyed,
and we may yet preserve it, if are have the good
sense no longer to araste oar strength npanqt
Uoos that have passed to final judgment
THE AMENDMENT* AOE GOOD IN THEMSELVES.
The changes, stated in the fewest words, are
theee: No person shall be s slave, and oil bon
or naturalized here shall be citizens, with equal
civil and political rignts.
When bnt a mere Handful of oar colored pop
ulation was free, and tbo great mass of them in
slavery, ths question of their civil and political
rights wa* not before ns. Snch a question could
not properly arise till slavery arts removed.
Now all of this population are free. They are
a great ranltitndc—about one-eighth of onr peo
ple. I do not think it good atateamanahip i
snch government* as ours to make so large
mass of freemen a subject doss, or to hold them
permanently in an inferior or degraded condi
tion. Slavery was alwsya a danger. This other
oondition of the colored people wonld be a dan
ger also, ever troubling ns and threatening onr
peace. Many of yon will remember when the
parly now in power endeavored to distranchiae
onr foreign-tmra population. It aneceeded for
a time, lint Democracy at lost triumphed and
saved the political right* of onr foreign-bora.
One of the reasons that jnatified ns applies to
the ease of onr colored population. They a
more numerous than onr foreign-born population
was in the dsys of Know-Nutbiogism; they are
just as free; the Constitution no longer restrains
or embarrasses ns, and onr very Democracy
requires that wo should act now as wo did then.
And why should we not ? Have this people ever
wroDgcd ns ? IIow or when ? It is they who
have boon wrap god. Shall Democracy point its
guns npon lb? lowly and unfortunate ? It would
be an unmanly warfare. Foint yonr guns yon
der, npon the national Capitol—at. the high
places, against imperialism and absolutism.
There i* your danger, and there is to be yonr
straggle.
NEl.&O KLTKUAOE WAS TOO MCCH HASTENED.
I must believe that tho extension of the right
of suffrage to that part of oar colored popula
tion jnst emancipated was too mneh hastened.
Accoiding to the theory of onr Government,
all should mako some preparation for the re
sponsible duties of a fall citlzonobip. To this
end, we delay the foreigner by onr naturaliza
tion laws; to this end wo open schools for alL
lint the work is done, and wo shonld make the
best of it. Depending npon the school and the
chnrcb, and summoning them to their utmost
exertion, let ns go forward, hopefully and brave
ly. After all, it is not the most learned that do
Ihe best voting. The farmer votes as wisely as
tho professor, and tho humbio are quite as true
to freo government as the exalted and assuming.
THE CONSTITUTION STnx EXCELLENT.
These are the changes made in onr Federal
Constitution daring tbo lu*t ten years. I have
boen requested to notice them. I should have
noliood them without request; for thoro seems
to bo an apprehension with many that the old
Constitution has been spoiled or pat aside. Far
from it. That same Constitution which onr
fathers had, and to which the Democracy has
been so faithful through all onr biatory, is onr
Constitution to day. Theso amendments have
been added to it, and that is all. The Consti
tution remains still an excellent Constitution,
and tlie Stato remains with ample sovereignty
to do its proper work. Wo have no right to des
pond as if all wore lost, nor shonld wo spend
onr strength in a vain straggle to get back to i
condition which can never bo restored. Ad
minister tho Conatilntion as amended, accord
ing to tho terms and directions contained aritbin
it, and all will bo welL Tbo mischief is not in
the Constitution.
TITE STATES AND TUE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.
Now, as heretofore, our Union is a limited
government, with only snch powers as are del-
egatcfl to it; now, os heretofore, ail powers not
delegated to it are reserved to the States or the
people; now, as heretofore, and under the
Constitution as it is, the States hold ample
sovereignty for the management of all their
home interests. This dootriuo cannot be aban
doned. Alas for ns if the State aa onr fathers
made it shall evor disappear front onr system
of government. Tho peril so recently cnconn-
tered enables ns to realizs what a calamity it
wonld linvo been if the war hod destroyed onr
Union. Not less disastrous would be the ca
lamity if the States, as snch, ibonld bo destroy
ed or changed into something else and less.
Our Fodaral Government and onr State Gov-
crliments, nnder the Constitution, make to
gether one complex system. Each is limited,
anil noilber complete enough to do all we need
to have done. Tho Federal Government is to
have tbo charge of interests that are common to
nil; the Stato Goveramenta of interests that are
special, each Slate taking charge of ita own in
terests. Tho Stato shall not do the work of the
Federal Government; the Federal Government
shall not do the work of the State. Each is su
preme within the limits of ita power*, and tho
people are supremo over both. We worship
neither, for they are Ihe work of onr own hands,
and made to serve us. We hoar, on the one
hand, that the States owe their life to the Fed-
oral Government, and, on the other bind, tbit
the Federal Government owes its life to the
States. This is taking on high sirs. In the
irosenoo of tho people, they are both clay in tho
lamls of tho potter, and in the truest sense,
neither maile the other. The people made both.
What did tho people mean when they made
the State; or, rather, what is meant by the
sovereignity of tho Stato? It is meant that
the Stato has cxdosive authority and power to
manage its own internal affairs. Nothing more
than this, bnt nothing leas. In homely phrase,
the doctrine is this: Each of these organiza
tions shall mind its own business, and neither
rneddlo with that of the other. This is as sennd
doctrine for onr government as for onr indi
vidual daily life. This is the doctrine which
makes freo men end free communities, and
which underlies all onr political institutions,
ovon to the moat insignificant. The Constitu
tion of the United States acknowledges it, every
State Constitntino ia foil of it, and every oonn-
ty, township and city thranghont onr wide land
ia daily practising npon it. It started far back
with onr colonial ancestors; they grew and
strengthened with it; they cherished it; they
fongbt for it—fought seven years for it; they
trinmphod with it, and laid the foundations of
these governments npon U. We, too, arill
cherish it; we will fight for it; we arill triumph
with it, and the party that violates it shall be
gronnd into dost.

Wo shonld not underrate the wisdom of past
ages or despise tbo lessons of experience. Bat
this is an ago of development, and the suprem
acy of mind over matter, and the tendencies
are to still higher achievements in that direc
tion. I need not remind yon that in order to
keep pace with advancing civilization, yonr
sons and daughters must bo educated. But I
wish to impress upon yon my views of the im-
I lortaocc of practical education, to prepare each
: or the sphere in which he or she is to move.
I do not objoct to, bat would cnooarago the
higher degrees of mental culture when they are
attainable. Bnt they are not within the reach
of thonsands of our best and most nsefnl peo
ple. If yon have a son whose taste and talents
fit him for a mechanic, direct his education in
that channel best calculated to develop those
talents. If he is to be a manufacturer, why try
educate him for the pnlpit or the bar? If he
to be a lawyor why train him for a doctor or
civil engineer ? If he ia to be a fanner, why
not make him one worthy his noble calling?
The arorld is made np of classes forming one
harmonious system, and between whom there is
real oonflict You all hay* to take your part

when it comes to the conduct of cases and the
exposition of law, yon regard these as the pre
rogatives of lawyers and Judge*. When onr
fellow creatures are afilictod are are ever ready

manity. Bnt in matters of pathology and treat
ment, wo stand aside in favor of those learned

terest in public morals, tho prosperity of the

administration of holy ordinanoes and the ex

their sphere*, can oontinne among themselves
and shape a policy for the good of all, and it ia
unmanly in one class to despise or underrate
the others.
Yon, a* a class, have made some mistakes.
One has been in standing aside and invoking
speculators, upon visionary theories, to lead in
yonr agricultural literature, and to do the think,
ing which yonr ora calling imperatively de

to make farming a practical succea* to the
