What more can that usurping eon- clave do? lias it not already Woken down all the const it ulioiutl safeguards, Ihr the pro tection of nroperty, life and liberty? Ilavo they not olditerated the sovereignty of the States? Have they liot destroyed the fed erative feature of our government?—its character of cnmpndt between eo-eoital States, nnd converted it into an unlimited and irresponsible despotism ? Lot us glance at the provisions of the Sherman programme of reconstruction. It authorises the suspension of the privilege oftlp* writ of habeas corpus, in the midst of prolouud peace. It clothes the military commanders, in their respective districts, with unlimited judicial powers in the face of the Constitution, which declares “that the judicial power of the United States shall be vested iu one Supreme Court and such in ferior Courts as Congress tnav, from time to time, ordain and establish.It author izes the denial of the “right of a speedy and public trial by an impartial jury, M by invest ing the military commander with power to organize military courts lor the trial of of fenders. It authorizes any civilian, in flic ten proscribed States, to be held to utiswer lor crime upon a mere military order, in di rect contradiction of the express language of the Constitution. It authority* searches, seizures and arrests, without ‘warrant or ■worn accusation, whereas, the Constitution declares “the right of the people to ho securo in their persons, papers and effects against unwarrantable searches and seizures shall not be violated, mid no warrant shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, mid particularly describing the place to be searelied and the person or things to he seized.” It authorizes the ab rogation of all legal process,and substitutes, ill its stead, the irresponsible order of the military commander; whereas, the Consti tution declares that “no person shall be de prived ot life, liberty or pvopevty, without due process ol law.” It abrogates, in ten States, their governments, republican in form nnd the establishment therein ot inill- f g •ess should adopt a more rigorous men sure, * what move vigorous can human wickedness devise ? Il is threatened that they will add confiscation. That will lie utterly impossi ble, if they attempt it under the forms of law. They may plunder;’they may rob* they may spoliate, by military power; but evciy linn of common sense knows, and •fudge Chase has so decided, that property i a lino- he legally eon ft scaled until after trial tin* honor to nc- 1 a, 'd conviction, and lie will be compelled to I vour leil. r ol* the I decide, whenever the question shall hi* made, i,,im- o| the 1 th* 1 * nny act of Congress, for that pur|M>sr, will be uueoustilntional, because “ox pout facto.” I hit siippo-e the worst—that Con gress shall attempt t<» confiscate, whom will it linrt? It will hurt only those who have properly, nnd wlm are not willing to hold on to their perishing treasury, at the price of hotter mid freedom. To such, property is dust, when weighed iu tin* balance with ]constitutional liberty. Little property is I left to the true men of the South. Asa gen* 'eraI remark, such men have emerged—/roin_ I the war with nothing left hut poverty and tary despotisms, although the Constitution declares that “the Uttitetl States shall guar antee to every State in the Union, a Repub lican form of government.” It subverts the sovereignty of the people of the States, and denies their reserved rights, although the Hon, mu) cull for Hie money; for then lie will Iiolil Constitution provide* that “the powers not ilmi nil who have voted for it by seudiiif up their delegated to the United St:i nniues, will he under obligations lo subscribe for ......

Con- Htitutiou, nor prohibited by if to tlie States, are reserved to the States respectively or to the people.” It proceedh upon the iiHhump- tion that Congress ih supreme—tho Execu tive a nobility and the judiciary “a none of wax,” and that the several States, or tlio people thereof, arc entitled lo such rights only as Congress may permit, It assumes to confer Stale citizenship, nnd prescribes who shall exercise, the elective franchise; whereas,the Constitution clothes Congress with |iower only to pass “uniform .vatl uai.- i/.ATioN laws.” It disfranchises thousands ol the best citizens of the South, as a penal ty for participating in, what Congress is pleased to term, “tlio rebellion.” It assumes their guilt without the right of a “public and speedy trial by an impartial jury,” in defiance of I lie maxim that “every man is presumed to he ittnueent until legally con victed }”and provides the punishment aki ki: the commission ol the alleged crime, despite tlie constitutional inhibition against the passage of “ex post facto” laws. If (’on- gross l»ad taxed its ingenuity to see how many and wlmt grievous infractions of tie Constitution it could compress in the fewest words, they could have originated nothing more successful or nefarious than the pro posed scheme ol reconstruction. They have outraged overy principle of Magxa Chaim a. Like Aaron's rod, they have swallowed the Executive aud Judiciary Departments, and erected the most odious form of (Jes|K)tisui upo'n the ruins of a wise, beniflcent, and nice ly balanced representative republic. Xow, suppose wo do not accept the Sherman Hill, as we are sweetly advised to do, lest Cow- pat riot ism. There are those who were blat ant lor secession in the beginning, who de nt mi wed speculation nnd speculators, whilst they enriched themselves by speculation, and who arc now willing “to bend the sup ple hinges of the knee that, thrift, may fol low fawning.” They may have something to lose by confiscation; *aud $1 they can save it, by recreancy to their homes and hearth-stones, by abandoning those whom they led into secession, by becoming false to their race, and by playing the pan-bearers at the funeral oft he Constitution, he it so,-- Verily, they will reap their retribution iu the exereratiousol mankind, lint generally the true men of the South have little to con fiscate, and that little they are willing to surrender, it need ho, as a holocaust upon the smoking altar of their country. To the suggestion that, if Wo do not ac cept the proposed scheme of recount ruction we shall not be allowed representation in Congress, I am, if nossible. more indiHcreiit. Who cares for such representation as will he foisted upon the people under its operation? They will lie representives in name, but mis represent ives in fact8. Much as 1 deprecate military government it is far preferable to such a government ns will lie probably in- augiirated under the Sherman programme. Entertaining those views, I never will up* prove, consent to, or accept tlio |K)iscne«l chalice offered to our lips, nor will I advise my fellow-citizens to do so. If permitted to vote, in view of the turn of events, I should register, and I hope every mail in Georgia who can will do so, with*the view of defeat ing the scheme for our degradation nnd the overthrow of republican government. It cannot fail to strike the mind of every reflecting man, that thecossHXT ot tlie peo ple to the proposed phy» of reconstruction is lesired by the dominant party; for haviug Attained our consent they will insist that whntevej is irregular is thereby cured, that, whatever is unconstitutional is thereby waived, aud they absolved from their sins. Then the door of redress, iu every form, will have been forever closed. Then all future remonstrance will lie vain, and its voice si lenced by tl|e retort upon us, that we con sent oil Io the sehciuc, and that the State Government aud Constitution, organized in pursuance of it, arc iu truth} aud fact, the Government and Constitution adopted by tlio people. Let its never consent, but hav ing tin* power, let us see to it that wj reject it. This we can-do only by registration anti voting against the proposed convention. Many gco.I men arc embarressed by tlie idea that the fact of registration implies con sent, and will bind them to abide the action ot the convention. There would bo force in this, were it not that the Constitution tobu formed bv the proposed convention, is to be submitted Jo the people for ratification, which clearly shown that the more fact of registering does not carry with it such con sent, but that it dopends entirely upon the ratification of the ('onstitution. Registra tion, therefore, is a necessary step for every citizen to take iu ordor to put himself in po sition to com *nt to or dissent from the action of the convention. On the other hand, it those opposed to the scheme refuse to register, is it not plain that they put themselves, their children, and the interest of the State, at the mercy of the Radicals? For, liy so doing, they can vote against neither the Convention, nor the rati fication of the Constitution which it shall frame. Are they willing to this? Will tint, tlio Radicals const rue their refttsal into an expression of willingness to abide the action of those who do register? “Silence gives consent,” they will say, and our future re monstrances will bo met by this potent old maxim. Therefore, let all register nml wield their ballot to Fave the State from utter ruin aud degradation. This is the club of Hercules, by which we can, if united and true to ourselves, crush this horrid Hydra that bask in and fattens upon the slime of Lcrucan lake of Radical corruption.

Wo ask to consent; nay, it is sought to compel us, by appeals to our fears to consent to a fundamental change in our system of government—a change which must prove fatal. Ifweconsent, our ruin is inevitable; we can be but ruined if wo refuse. I prefer tlio latter horn of the dilemma. We are afloat upon a storm-tossed sea; in the darkness and fury of the tempest wo have but one plank—the Constitution. Let us cling to that, and,if submerged ,let ns go down grasping it with the desperate en ergy of death. Property and life are noth ing without good government. We be queath to our posterity a heritage of woe, if we surrender them to the memos of des potism. We cannot ssvy_what changes Congress, now in session, may make, but it is not to be expected that they will ameliorate pend ing issues. From the temper which seems to characterize their deliberations, they will probably extract from the cup every
