packages and freight for Charleston, Savan

the rest of mankind."
WHY COMPLAIN 1
There are many in the South as well as
in the North, who exhibit the most bitter
feelings of enmity towards those who form
what they are pleased to term, “Southern
aristocracy.” All this bitterness arises from
a misunderstanding of the true oharacter of
these Southern people. There is, nor never
were a more generous-hearted, noble-spirit
ed, hospitable class of beings in the world,
than these self-same Southerners. It is an
undeniable fact that there are a few brainless
coxcombs, who have nothing else but their
wealth to carry them through the world, but
as a class, the Southerners have been woe
fully misrepresented. There never has been
a time, since the years of our majority, but
what a man of honorable principles, and one
who would hold himself above the vices of
the world, could find his way into the very
best circles of society, no matter what was
his pecuniary status. This is an assertion we
know, that many will doubt, but it is never
theless true.
There are grades in society, not only in
the South, but every where. They exist of
necessity. There is no system of govern
ment, no set of circumstances that can pro
duce amalgamation of these grades, and
make them one. No powor ean obliterate
the lines of demarkation, which an inexora
ble fate have established. Therefore it is
folly to complain.
There must be. some one to carry the
“hod,” as well as some one to furnish the
capitol, or the house never can be built.—
Such has ever been the case, and so it must
ever remain. Therefore it is unmanly
to complain of your birth, your training,
your employment, your hardships* Never
fancy you would be something if you only
had a different lot or sphere assigned you.
God understands his own plans, and knows
wLat you want a great deal better than you
do. Therefore accept the position he gives
you without a murmur, and drive out that
develish envy which gnaws at your heart,
because you are not in the same lot with
others. Roger Sherman was shoemaker,
Henry Clay was an apprentice to a saddler.
Their origin and position was no disgrace to
them. The remark of the illustrious street
sweeper of Thebes, that “it is not the office
that makes the man, hut the man the office,”
we would commend to your consideration.
Jf you are faithful in that which is least,
then shall ye be entrusted with that, which
is greater hut dont seek to pull dt>wn others
that you may he elevated, yourselves.
Many are rejoicing to-day that this
“ Southern aristocracy,” as they call it, has*
been humbled and broken down by the
freeing of the slaves. But they much
cnistake the spirit that fills the hearts of
these men, if they dream that they can
thus *be crushed. It is true, they suffer ‘
some inconvenience for the present by the
taking away of their servants, but it is
only temporary. There must be “ hewers
of wood and drawers of water,” and if
the black race is taken away, some other
race must be substituted.' Somebody has
got to c&rry the “hod.” We accept the
pbofefen of slavery as a necessity, and bow
to this .dfeppfisation of Providence sub
missively, But as tp crushing our spirits
and breaking up our social positions, is an
THE “CITIZEN SOLDIERS’ PARTY.”
The New York Herald, assuming that
the “pro-slaveryDemocratie” and the “anti
slavery Republican ” parties are “exploded,”
and fearing, perhaps, without a party, to
be left out in the cold itself, with its char
acteristic penetration, has looked through,
the mill-stone, and discovered that the but
tered side of its bread, politically, is the
“ citizen soldier” side. In other words,
that there are over a million and a half
of soldiers, who, if they will be ruled by
the Herald, will go to work and build up
a soldiers’ party, and run the Government
machine on their own hook, aided by the
sagacious counsels of James Gordon Ben
nett, and propelled by the mighty enginery
of the New York Herald. Now it is not
at all unlikely that the soldiers, who have
done the fighting and endured the hard
ships of the war, will claim some prom
inence in the field of politics. They are
justly entitled to a liberal representation in
the halls of legislation and to a partici
pancy in 'the honors and emoluments of
office, and, for ourselves, we would be wil
ling to entrust the interests of State tc* the
hands of men who have been four years
gallantly contending in the field * for the
rights and honor of States. But for a
special “soldiers’ party,” or any other
party which will array class against class
in this government, we have a repugnance.
Now that the war is over, the good soldier
will return to his duties of citizenship, and
just in proportion to his integrity as a sol
dier, will be his faithfulness as a citizea.
But the simple fact of a man’s having made
a good soldier does not involve the certain
ty of his high qualifications for statesmanly
position, nor should the soldier base his
claims to political elevation upon meritori
ous services in the field alone. In times of
peace, civil policy should be the predom
inating one in our government, and the
citizen soldier, without the formation of a
distinctive political organization, should
direct his attention and give his support to
those men and measures, irrespective
party, which are calculated to elevate the
country nationally and bless the people
socially. Let the good citizen and good
soldier mutually co-operate in the forma
tion of a political party that shall have for
its leading principle the restoration of fra
ternal affection between the members of the
lately distracted States and the determina
tion of all questions of doubtful construe,
tion from which sprang the recent war.
Let the soldiers, North an 4 South, East
and West, who have suffered so much
within the last four years, look to it that
the Government policy henceforth shall be
one of peace, and open, manly frankness
towards the people of all sections. Above
all, reject the counsels of radical men, poli
tical stock-jobbers, and those who would
elevate themselves to power even at the
expense of a nation’s happiness. If this
war shall have put an end to fanatical, dis
tracting, hale-engendering isms, it will not
have been entirely without good results.

of their back dues, were paid. The rebels,
the day previous, not waiting to be paroled,
or complying in any way with the terms of
Kirby (Smith’s surrender, in large numbers
moved across the liio Grande into Mexico,
taking their arms and their artillery, which
they sold to the Imperialists at Matamo
ras. . /

In what Sente are tlie States Sovereign !
From the New York World.]
A sect of political new lights has sprung
up in toto that there is any such
as State sovereignty, and denounce
the- doctrine as a source of infinite mischief
and danger. The strong and just antipa
thy to the heresy of secession enables these
new lights to get a hearing; and people
too indolent to think, or too obtuse to dis
criminate are so frightened by the bugbear
of State sovereignty that there is a possi
bility that our government will receive a
fatal warp against the principle of local
self-government. The whole tendency of
the war has been to accumulate power in
the Federel head and dwarf the authority
of the States. The tendency will necessa
rily continue until the work of reconstruc
tion is complete. Having escaped the dan
ger of dissolution, we are now beset with
the opposite danger of consolidation. The
friends of liberty and State rights have yet
a hard battle to fight in defense of the fun
damental principle of our Federal institu
tions.
We will use no argument to prove that
the States are sovereign; because, so far
as we are aware, no American statesman
of such eminence, has denied it. The cus
tomary language of our public men will
have to be unlearned if. the doctrine is to
be discarded. We wish the political new
lights who denounce and scoff at State
sovereignty would look through the quota
tions which we here insert, noticing that
none of them are taken from Jefferson,
Madison, or any of the long line of their
Democratic disciples:
Every State is an independent, sovereign,
political community, except in so far as cer
tain powers, which.it might otherwise have
exercised, have been conferred on a general
government, established under a written con
stitution, and exercising its authority over
the people of all*the Stated. This general
government is a limited government. Its
powers are specific and enumerated. All
powers not conferred upon it still remain
with the States, or with the people —Daniel
Webster to Messrs. Barrington Brothers & Cos
October 16, 1839.
No person can maintain more firmly than
I do the principle that the States are sover
eign and independent in rogard io all mat
tors, e*oopt those i*» reltvticm tu which sover
eignty has been expressly, or by neccessary
implication, transferred to the Federal Gov
ernment by the Constition of the United
States. I have at least believed that my
non-compliance with the requisition made
upon me, in the present ease, would be re
garded as maintaing the equal soverignty
and independence of this State, and by neces
sary consequence those of all other States.
—Govemor\Seward to the Lient. Governor
df Virginia , September 19, 1839,
And now, almost while I speak, comes
the solemn judgment of the Supreme Court
of Wisconsin—a sovereign State of this
Union, made after elaborate argument, on
successive occasions, before a single judge,
and then before the whole bench, declaring
this act to be a violation of the Constitution.
( harles Sumner, Speech on the Fugitive
Slave Bill y February 23, 1855.
But this doctrine of an extraordinary ease,
to he judged of and applied by one of the
twenty-four sovereignties, is replete with in
finitely more danger than the doctrine of tho
general welfare, in the hands of all.— Henry
Clayj Speech Avgust 3, 1830.
The sovereignty and jurisdiction of this
State shall extend to all places within the
boundaries thereof.
It shall be the duty of the Governor, and
of all suhordicate officers of the State, to
maintain and defend its sovereignty and jur
isdiction. — Revised Statutes of New York }
Chap. 1, Titled.
The State of Georgia, by giving to the
hank the CApaoity to sue and be sued, volun
tary strips itself of its sovereign character,
so far as respects the transactions of the
bank, and waives all the privileges of that
character— Chief Justice Mar shall , 9 }\hea.
ton. 904
We may fairly hold ourselves excused
from arguing the naked point of State
sovereignty against the new school, until
they have condescended to explain, by some
rational or "probable theory, why it has
been so universally recognized by the
statesmen and jurists who have most pro
founlly studied the Constitution. Will
the Tribune, which, two .days ago, pro
fesaad its solicitude to see State sovereign
ty ‘ put to death” as a great “ culprit,”
pobt out what it conceives to be the source
of Webster’s and Marshall’s error ?
We propose to discuss these three ques
tions:
First. In what sense are the States
icvereign ?
Second. Wfiat are the limitations put
upon their sovereignty by the Federal
Constitution ?
Third. Are these limitations remova
ble by a smaller number of States than are
requisite to amend the Constitution ?
The practical interest of the subject lies
mainly in the third question; a question
on which there has never been any differ
ence of opinion in the North, and which
has now been decided by arms—as nobody
ever doubted it would be decided by the
Supreme Court—in the negative. Had
there been any likelihood that the tribunal
established to expound the Constitution
would have sanctioned the pretended right
of secession, the Southern States would
not have appealed to arras to get released
from their federal obligations.
The words “sovereign” and “sovereign
ty” are used in two senses, which, td avoid
confusion of thought, we must discrimi
nate. Strictly, that power is sovereign
which is subject to no control but its own
will. In this sense, there is no sovereignty
either in the State Governments or in the
Federal Government; both are subject to
a written Constitution conferring only such
forms as the people saw fit to grant; which
powers the people may, at their pleasure,
revoke. In the highest sense, the sov
ereignty resides indefensibly in the people,
who can confer upon their rulers as much
or as little power as they see fit. In a
looser but not unusual sense, we speak of
sovereignty as residing in the government.
The people of the United States, in the
exercise of their sovereignty, have estab
lished a complex system of governments,
delegating the exercise of some sovereign
pow r ers to the Federal Government, some
to the State Governments, and reserving
-to themselves a residuaro undele
gated power. In the powers which they
have conferred on the State* Governments,
it is beyond dispute that the people have
acted as separate communities; the sov
ereignty residing in the people of the
State, a majority of whom are competent
to declare the will of the whole body.
The people of one have no voice whatever
in forming the State Constitution and or
ganizing the State Government of any
other States, either through the Federal
Government or otherwise. In this respect,
then, the States are indisputably sovereign
and independent, being subject to no exte
rior control either by other States or by
the Federal authority. A majority of its
own citizens control the minority, in each
State, in virtue of the principle that men
are naturally equal, and that consequently
there can be no just political preponder
ance in a State but that of numbers.
In regard to the Federal Government, the
Cardinal question, as respects sovereignty,
is, whether the people from whom its pow
ers are derived, exercise their sovereignty
as one collective body in which the citizens
are equal and a majority controls; or
whether the sovereignty resides in the peo
ple of the seceral States as separate com
munities, the-States being tconsuctered as
equal, and no majorities being regarded
except internal majorities in the individual
States. It is clear that the Federal Govern
ment was neither formed nor can be amend
ed by the collective mass ot the people act
ing as one body, in which every citizen has
an equal voice with every other citizen, and
a majority controls. In amending the
Constitution, a citizen of New York has
less than one-sixth of the political influence
of a citizen of New England, and less than
one-thirtieth of a citizen of Delaware. If
the sovereignty by which the Federal
ernment is constituted resides in the col
lective mass of the people, this is not only
a great anomaly but a gross and glaring
injustice. If the “culprit,” State sovereign
ty, is to be “put to death,” let the work be
thorough. If the equality of the States is
to be broken down, then, in the name of
justice, give, us the equality of individual
men, and let the majority rule!
From Buenos Ayres.
The Tribune has papers from Buenos
Ayres containing editorial details of the
first movements of the beligerents in the
opening war between the Argentine Re
public and Paraguay. President Mitrea,
on receiving the news of the invasion of
the Argentine Republic, issued a procla
mation to his fellow countrymen, summon
ing them to their posts as citizen soldiers.
According to the press of Buenos Ayres,
the proclamation has been received with
enthusiasm, and ail political parties fiavo
been united in the determination to support
the government. The Republic is declar
ed in a state of siege.
The Times says, according to present
appearances .the war may become one of
the most important that has ever taken
place in South America. The land forces
of Paraguay are estimated at 60,000, those
of the allies, Brazil, the Argentine
lie, and Paraguay, at 75,000, but the
greater number of this force has yet to be
raised, while Paraguay’s force is already
in the field. It is thought, therefore, that
it may take a few months before the allies
can assume the aggressive. The com
bined population of the allied countries so
far exceeds that of Paraguay that the suc
cess of the latter seems impossible, Par
ngnay hopes that they will find many allies
in the Northern provinces of the Argen
tine Republic, and in Uraguay.
On one acre, within sight es Trinity
church steeple, New York, but in Jersey,
lives a man I will call “John Smith. John’s
neat cottage and acre cost him eighty years
ago, $3,000 now worth $6,000. In the
spring of 1864, he planted 12,000 Early
Wakefield cabbage plants, which, by the
first week in J uly, were sold in the New
York market at $8 per 100—for 900. Be
tween the rows of Cabbages were planted,
at the same time, 18,000 Silesia lettuce
plants, which at $1 50 per 100, brought
$l7O.
Both crops were cleared off* by July 12,
the ground being thoroughly plowed, har
rowed and planted with 40,000 celery
plants, which were sold before Christmas
of the same year, at $3 per 100, for $1,200,
making the total receipts $2,430.
His expenses were : Manure $150; keep
Os horse, $300; interest on $6,000, $420;
incidental outlay, $100; amounting in all
to $1,370, which deducted from the re
ceipts, gave him the net profit of $1,050.
John, some might call a clod hopper. He
has no particular skill, no great share of
“brains,” his only prominent quality being
untiring industry; but would bp difficult
for any one, no matter how endowpd with
skill of brains, to make more of an acre
han he did. »

It is a fact that President Johnson has
directed a suspension throughout the South
of the sales of rebel landed property for
non payment of direct taxes, ordered by
the Tax Commissioners in' the several
States. It is not known whether such in
terposition implies a remittance of the pern
alty of confiscation, or merely a postpone*
ment of sale.
