[From the Richmond Enquirer. .
STAND BY THE CONSTITUTION.
The qoi'slion which the country is now de
ciding, and in the decision of which the South
is called on to take a part, Is of an importance
beyond calculation or comparison. Ccvnstitu
'itonal Government is in issue. Constitu
tional government is now suspended ; and the
question is, Shall the sleep be death ? The
will of the majority in Congress this day, is
reared above all other authorities and all op
posing prescriptions; and it is attempted to
establish it permanently as the supreme and
only Jaw of lhe land.
This usurpation is tolerated because its im
mediate aim and object are in harmony with the
passions o» a majority of the Northern people.
Bot against nothing does history sound a more
emphatic warning, thau pursuing a temporary
purpose through a fundamental change. The
expedient contrived for tbc oppression of the
South to-day will hereafter be turned in full
force against other quarters. In all popular
governments majorities are fluctuating. The
triumphant party or faction of yesterday is the
vanquished party of to-day; and the expedients
of persecution which it had employed, when in
power, pass from she oppressor to the op
pressed, for a reverse application. The only
safety for him who sits on the summit of
power, is to improve his opportunity to hedge
authority within strict limits and guards, so
that he may be able to resign it without unea
siness or peril.
The. people of this country are not acting on
this .rule now. The party in power are sacri
ficing i.hc future to the present. They are in
venting engines ngainst their opponents which
will, in turn, be their own destroyers. They
ara breaking down all barriers and restraints ou
the power of a Congressional majority, and re
ducing all other authorities, State and Federal,
to its absolute sway. They are reducing the
Government from a constitutional Republic to
a despotic oligarchy, all the worse for being
elective, because, therefore, ever changing and
ever hungry. They are doing lor the Uuited
States what Nero could only wish for as to
Rome: They are making one. neck of all the
people, and putting the sword in the hands of
Congress.
While the majority in Congress are thus eul--
ployed, they have numerous revolutionary co
workers among those otherwise opposed to
them. “We have no Constitution now,” is the
cry on every hand. l * It is vain to oppose Con
gress any longer. Better pay no honor to the
Presidential office or its incumbent; for Con
gress will persecute those who treat the execu
te authority with the least respect. Make no
appeal to the courts for the protection they
were ordained to afford—for it will irritate
Congress, and draw from it fresh violences.”-
Thus, from-lawless ambition on the one band,
smd timorous compliance on the other, the
. r.- —— 7 7
— / / \
£ri-uUccklii * 1 " Constitutionalist
multitude of all parties are uniting to recog
nize and enthrone a revolution in our system
of government more fatal than the despotism
ofßultanor Czar, and more disastrous than
the combined horrors of war, pestilence and
famine.
Suppose the overthrow of the Constitution
and the despotic sway of Congress be recog
nized and established—what then ? Alas and
alas for the country thenceforth ! The issue
on which the party at present in [lower has
maddened and misled the country, cannot be
made available forever or much longer. Some
new question will divide the people, and the
present outs will become the ins. And they
will come to the rule smarting under the
wrongs and indignities they have suffered, and
burning with the spirit of retaliation. These,
in their turn, will finally give place to their ri
vals, with their wrongs to redress and fresh
cruelties t.o indulge.
In short, the country will be torn by com
peting tactions, alternately triumphant, and de
veloping fresh feuds and growing bitternesses
by their retaliations and revenges. The coun
try, under such a rule, would be like a boat
locking under the rush of the crew from side
to sido alternateljq soon to dip, and finally to
founder!
Suppose the opponents of the Radicals were
to come into power to-morrow. It would be
a marvel of public virtue and disinterestedness
were they to proceed at once to repair the bul
warks and defenses of the Constitution, and
restore the rule of the law. Mr. Seward has
tinkled his little bell in many ears that have not
forgotten it, and long to treat him to similar
music. Stanton has sent many men to prison
who are burning to revenge it. The leaders in
Congress have expelled too many men for their
opinions, and have abused the forms of the
Constitution to personal ambitions and perse
cutions, too often and too long, not to provoke
retaliations. The representatives of Radical
States liavu maria too free with States whose
political complexions did uot suit them, not to
have taught their adversaries a similar mode of
pursuing party advantage. “ New England
will suffer for all this, some day!”—is the* cry
alreadi'. The plea of popular government
will he sufficient to justify the running of the
six New England States into one, when the
Constitution shall cease to guard them ; for if
the States arc hut as counties, they should be
represented in th'e Senate as in the House, ac
cording to numbers.
Cau any one calmly contemplate the result
of this revolution, which the ambitious and
persecuting on the one baud, and the cowardly
and compliant on the other, are assisting to
consummate V Shall we be continually torn by
the periodical contest of parties, when the suc
cess of either brings in afresh and anew the
horrors of a restoration V Shall such factions
as for long years bathed Koine in the blood of
her chief citizens, tear and distract aud deso
late this country, by their struggles and their,
revenges V
For ourselves, we tremble at the thought,
and the prospect! And we conjure all who
agree with us in dreading an evil so enormous,
a destruction so dreadful, to unite in the only
means of preventing it- -the maintenance of the
Constitution. It will not do to abandon it in
despair of ils vindication, or iu pursuit of un
manly repose, (kiss uttered an exhortation no
less applicable now than formerly, and none
the less so because he himself eeAsed to honor
it, when he said, “ l.et us cling to the Constitu
tion as the shipwrecked mariner Mings to his
plank, when night and the tqmpcst close
around.”
No good citizen, no I rue man, can consent
to give up the Constitution, or join in treating
it as a nullity. It is a crime to do so—a crime
against law, against liberty, and against heaven.
It is our duty to respect and to support it; to
concede to others the rights it secures to thc-m,
and to demand those it secures to ourselves.
VVe have no right to abnegate our obligations
or abdicate our rights. It may be that our ef
foi ts to sustain the Constitution may be una
vailing. II may be that, the torrent of revolu
tion now sweeping away all that is valuable
and sacred, may not be arrested. But let the
Constitution be lost through no concurrence of
ours. Let us put forth efforts such as oppor
tunity may allow, and save, if we can, for our
selves and for our children, the priceless in
heritance of constitutional government , the no
ble fabric of liberty regulated and protected by
law, which our fathers found. Let us, at least,
lend no hand in tearing it down. Let this, if it
must lie doue, be the work of others. Then
ours will be, at worst, the consolation, “If
Rome fall, I am innocent!”

THE CHINGARORA
ANTI NERVOUS
SMOKING TOBACGO !
THE CHINGAROUA TOBACCO glows from
the rich soil of the “ORIENT,” and is possessed of
a peculiar delicious flavor entirely unknown to the
tobaccos of all other climes, tut its unprecedented
popularity has sprung from the fact of the entire nb.
*ence of that deadly poison Kicolin, which permeates
■very other tobacco, and which is tho one and sole
ause of the distressing nervous diseases, dyspeps’a,
tc., which most invariably, sooner or later, follow
he indulgence of tho pipe and cigar. At the recent,
umlyzation of tobacco from all parts of the world,
.it the Academy of Sciences, in Paris, the renowned
Chemist, M. Lamaureaux, declared that while Euro
penn and American tobacco contained fully eight per
cent, and the purest Havana tobacco from two to five
porccnt.of yfcolin, the CIIINGAKORA did not con
tain one discoverable particle of that deadly poison, a
chop of which, extracted, will destroy life.
Our agent at Bombay has shipped us large quanti
ties of the CHINGARORA during the past two
-.-ears, and although we have been pressed to supply
the demand lor this delicious luxury to the veteran
smoker, yet wc- are now prepared to offer it in un
limited quantities, at a price much lower than some
American U acco of a far inferior quality.
A eonnoiseur has hut to smoke the American to
bacco and cigars, winch arc invariably chemically
flavored, te he disgusted with the mediciual taste
which leaves a nauseous, unhealthy coating in the
mouth, and in time seldom fails to shatter the nervous
system.
The natives of the “ORIENT” smoke the CHIN
GARORA from morn till night, from veuth to age,
and are happily unconscious of the wild, distressing
lire which courses through the veins of ihednlialer of
the fumes of tobacco containing JVicsMh.
We invite every lover of the weed to try the CHIN
GARORA, and guarantee unprecedented pleasure in
its delicious flavor. Sold everywhere.
