This It a qauction of fact; and It ulalmed that under the ponstltuflpn.of the. United Spates. Congress is the only arbiter with th*1uga) power to settle U Jji some shape or other every State gov. ernneut must have the sanction of Con grass, or of the United States. The ori ginal thirteen, as a matter of course, eaak approved the governments of tho other* the formation of the government, and aa each now government ha* been formed Its Constitution has been submitted to and approved by Congress; and by that aot Congress lies contracted to guarantee It as Republican Oovarnmcnt. As any State has titered Us State Government through the regular constituted authorities, and kept up the chain of succession' from one government to tho other, the original sana tion of the United States may he said fairly to continue, since the government guaran teed by tbeUqlted State* osoent to tb* new organization. Prime facia, at least, ought to bo assumed that a government sanctioned by tbs Ualted States as entitled to the guarantee, would not then turn over Its authority to a new government, not en titled to the tame guarantee. But the case entirly different when In any way tb* State loses Its legsl organization alto gether; when there la In the State no gov. ornment having the guarantee; when the chain of succession has beeu broken, aud there exist no old legal guaranteed organ! ration to sanction tbe new aud transmit to the sanction of tha United States.

Tho State of New York la now In eon ventlon at Albany, and that Convention may alter very materially the Government of the Stele. Now, Inatmuch aa that Con vention area called by tbe State Govern ment rtoogniaed by Congress, and Inas much a* tha pretont Government wlU. doubtless, without a word, yield to. and thus sanction, the now organisation, It may frirly be said that tho new. Govern ment wlU be St least prima foci a recognized, by tht United States. But suppose New York were to set tip a monarchy, sod that monarchy to go Into fsnSnl operation, and the old Govern ment to disappear; .sfippas* the United States wars by force to OvWturn and asm! hUato that monarchy, and there* were no legal State organisation, either to call a Convention or to sanction any nsw Gov ernment that mlffot In any way arise; sup pose tbe lint of sscosslan wore broken; It It not clear that the new Government would requite the sanction of foe United (Bate* before It could rightfully claim to exercise the powers of the State under the Constitution, or would be entitled to the guar an toe the United States Is bound to give to ovary State—a Government repub lican In form. Noty, Just this is the case with Georgia. By a rebellion against tbe Utilted States tbe State Government recognized by tbe United States was lost; and after live years of bloody and disastrous war, tho State was, In May, 180S, without any organiza tion recognized by tbe United States, U l» true, la the foil of 1884 an organiza tion was got up under the supervision of tho President, but It never was organized by direction of the constituted authorities of tlie States; It Is not the regular sue- ssor of the legal State organization which tiud the recognition of the United States, ami It follows that, before It can rlgbtfidly.cxcrels* tlie powers of tho State and claim the guarantee provided for by Article 4, section 4, of the Constitution, It. iipist bo sanctioned and accepted by the United States, a* are the Government* of all t£e other States of tbe Union. Nothing it more absurd than the oft re peated statement that tha United State* has no right, under any circumstances, to luterfore with an organisation claiming to bs a State Government. It Is a right sanc tioned by tbo express terms of the Consti tution ; It la a right approved by the Su preme Court of the United States; aud It is a right necessarily growing out of the very tutor* of tho Goverumeul. The United but os Is a Government formed of msuy governments—“E Pluribus I'mini," and the Constitution place* upon each of the States various restrictions a* to their power*, and one of those restrictions la that tho Government of each State shall be Republican In form, and It aaoaasarUy fol lows that, at all times, the United State* have tha right to examine Into a B**tc Govern meat and a* If U meets tbe OansUttitlonal condition.
