CONSTITUTIONALIST. AUGUSTA. CCA. SUNDAY MORNING, DEC 6, 1868 AN EXOELLENT WORD'FROM THE NORTH, If we are not grossly deceived by the signs of the times, we can perceive a steady and beneficent promise of political modera tion in almost every quarter. Granting that these symptoms are not illusory; and trusting that no rude klasts of excessive bate or vengeance may bring them, if really existing, to an untimely end ; wc have fairer hopes of a more quiet destiny in the years to come, it may be that the people are too far gone in corruption to become suddenly magnanimous; it may be that those who have thus far fattened upon agitation will continue to stir the hell-brotli of discord; but it cannot be denied that, for the mo ment, there is a pause in the storm, and that men’s minds seem wholesomely bend ing to considerations of peace. We know that such desires prevail extensively in the South. That they are not wanting in the North, let this manly and masterly article from the New Haven (Conn.) Register amply and feelingly testify: “ SECESSIONISTS—ABOLITIONISTS. “ As time roils on the real attitude of the Southern States towards their sister States be fore the war will he more perfectly understood than it is now by the masses of the. Northern people. In these days of passion and preju dice probably not one man in a thousand un derstands the real starting point of the late calamitous civil war. It is believed that the South took up arms for the sole purpose of fighting*the North and taking lo themselves the government of the Union 1 Yet the seces sionists had no such thought in their minds. Writhing uuder real and fancied wrongs, and lull of apprehension in regard to the future safetv of their domestic institutions, they grew fanatical upon tire right of peaoeable secession. — ♦ This right thiy believed to be consli utionhl, and they felt ibat if they werb.assailed by force of arms in its exercise, toe would be the aggress ors, and they would be simply acting upon the defensive. It was for this reason that they so Ion" hesitated before they advanced upon Pennsylvania or any Northern State. ‘ Lot us alone, and we will let you alone,’ was their motto, until tjiey thought their existence de pended upon anew position, that of the offen sive. When these facts aflord no justification for the course of the South in attempting to leave the. Union without the consent of the North, they should, nevertheless, be remem bered ns a part of the history of the war, and they should inspire the'victors in the contest with the more, leniency towards the vanquish ed, arid with more faith in their promises to come back to their allegiance as good and true men. That we are right in these, views, we give no less authority than that of Henry Chy, (a Southern man,) a great statesman, and a true Union man. He said in a letter to the. New York merchants, in 1851, aa follows : “ The alleged right of secession is, 1 appre. liend, sometimes confounded with (lie right of revolutions. But Us partisans mean a totally different filing. They contend that it is a peace ful, tawful, and it not constitutional remedy, that it is not forbidden by the Constitution. They insist, that, it is a State right, lo tic recognized and respected ; and that whenever exercised by a State, tar from being censured or condemned, the State, if neceesa-y, if entitled to the co-op eration of other Slates.” “ How few Northern men, even among the intelligent, understand this tiling in this way. Instead of regarding tlielr Southern brethren as deluded by a false theory, a wrong principle, they hold them to the responsibility of attempt ing an aggressive war upon us, whereas they always insisted that they were only protecting •tfifeniSeiVPS against our coercion— the constitu tional right, of which they denied. Mr. Clay showed that they were wrong, that secession avas nothing tess (linn revolution. But this does not affect their motives or intentions. Yet, now that the war is over, their error in theory should not be treated as if they intended a destructive war upon us ! • “ Then it shonld be remembered that an or gan of no less influence than the New York Tribune, at the moment when the secessionists were deliberating npou their right to withdraw peaceably from the Union, used the following language: “ ‘lf the Cotton States shall become satisfied that fijey can do better out of the Union than in it, we insist upon letting them go in peace." * * « IVe hope never to live iu a republic whereof one section is pinned to another by a bayonet.’ “ Such language as this, coming from sueli a source, had a prodigious effect in pushing for ward the schemes of the secessionists. But Mr. Greeley was not alone in thus cncouragiug the movements which resulted in 1 the butchery of eo many gallant men, North and South, and the loss of thousands of millions of treasure. Even Benjamin Wade, iu his place in the Sen ate in 1860, said : * “ ‘1 am not one of those who would ask them (the South) to continue in such a Union. Yon canuot forcibly hold men in this Union ; for tbc attempt to do so, it seems to me, would subvert the first principles of the Government under which we live.’ “ fs it not, then, cruel to put all the respon sibility of this civil war upon the excited Southern men, when we read such declarations as these from the acknowledged organs of the Republican party, who, having led the seces sionists into their terrible troubles, now, in stead of trying to heip them out in the easiest way possible, seek ic> trample them under foot, and otherwise degrade them! “ But what say the abolitionists ? They have not the poor cxeufig of the secessionists, lor they do not pretend that their conduct is ex cused by the Constitution! They declared that sacred instrument to be a ‘league with death and a covenant with hell.’ Wendell Phillips is not a TOter, because he refuses to take the oath to support tiie Constitution. Yet the seeessiou ists, who were deluded, are persecuted unto death, while the more guilty abolitionists are permitted to hold the reins of government! But justice cannot be forever deferred. THE CASE OF EX-PRESIDENT DAVIS. The division of the Circuit Court at Richmond, on motion to quash the indict ment against Jefferson Davis, virtually, we presume, puts an end to that vexatious and unprofitable law case. As Chief Jus tice Chase favors the motion to quash and Underwood opposes it, it is hard to be lieve that the intelligence and honesty of the North will side with a caricature of Justice rather than with the embodied rep resentative Justice of the “ Nation.” THE GREAT PROBLEM. The editor of the New York Freeman's Journal, who is one of the boldest and most philosophical thinkers in this country, brief ly disposes ol a question which now agi tates the minds of men. Speaking of Gen. Grant and what he may do, Mr. McMas ter says: “ We can hardly conceive of the occurrence of events in which General Grant will take tile initiative in doing the country, or its liberties, any injury. The graver question presents it self to us: ‘ Will General Grant da anything to protect this demoralized people from still farther destroying their own liberties P ” That is, indeed, the rub. From presen appearances, if General Grant seriously desired the ruin of popular freedom, he would have very little trouble in getting the people to do for themselves what many predict he designs to accomplish in person. AVc think, then, that the task of destroying Constitutional Liberty is comparatively easy; the task of saving what little there is left may strain the energies of forty Grants. [Special Correspondence Baltimore Gazette- From Washington, MU. DAVIS’ TRIAL —CHIEF JUSTICE CHASE — . GEN. (UtANT AND THE SITUATION. Washington, December 2, 1868. Additional interest has been excited here within a few days past in respect to the case of Mr. Jefferson Davis, now under con sideration of the United States Circuit Court at Richmond. In intelligent quar ters it has been known for some time that the law officers of the Government would again resort to pettifogging and delay, and it has been whispered that in case of failure of postponement an attempt would be made to withdraw the cause from the civil tribu nals, and, through the influence of the law yers with the satrap of Virginia, throw it over to a court martial under the recon struction aets, on the ground of that State, not being yet in the Union ! In reterring to this matter, a Washington journal charges tiiese movements as being i nstigat%) by the “ Government,” and there is not wantibg evidence that the parties aiming at this end are endeavoring to evade the odium by casting the responsibility upon the Executive. This view, however, must be altogether erroneous, as will be seen by a brief reference to the history oi the case. It will be remembered that the President, for the past two years, has been incessantly working to bring on the trial, with the avowed object of testing import ant constitutional principles—involving the legal question of the right of secession and the present status of the States which at tempted a separation of the South from the North. To this purpose he invoked the ac tion of Congress, and very recently took the opinion of the Attorney General as to whether he possessed further power in the premises, the exercise of which would facili tate a decision by, the civil courts. It is now evident that the' theory that the fourteenth amendment to the Constitution has been adopted effectually prevents the accomplish ment of the President’s original desire of bringing the important legal points referred before the Supreme Court; but there is not a particle of proof that his wish to have the case promptly disposed of has been in any wise altered or modified. The t ruth of the matter is, that the case has passed entirely out of the hands of the Ex eeutive, and is now, to all intents and pur poses, in those of the Judiciary and the law officers of the Government. To Chief Jus tice Chase, the District Attorney for the District of Virginia, and the Attorney General (who lias just made another at tempt to screen himself by employing Dana, of Massachusetts, to conduct the prosecu tion,) belong the whole responsibility. The public will bear in mind that power of the President is limited to absolutely pardon in..; the accused as the matter now stands, or?in the event of the case being transfer red to a military court, to interposing an objection lo the infliction of capital punish ment. The Chief Justice, it will be seen, there fore, at a glance, has in his very fortunate juncture of circumstances, an opportunity of severing all connection between himself and his former political associates. The responsibility rests upon him of overruling all dilatory’ motions, and if the accused shall be demanded by the military authori ties, to ignore that feature of the recon struction system which regards the State of Nirginiaaa opt of the Union. If the “ taw officers ” of the Government think to make their peace with the “coming mail " by turning this ease over to the next Ad ministration, J have a piece of very profita ble intelligence to impart to them. The peculiar and last friends of General Grant smv, with emphatic emphasis, that no lega cy the outgoing government could bequeath I,jinn could be less acceptable than this muddled business. Apropos of Judge Chase, 1 see some weak kneed Democratic journals are lauding him to the seventh Heavens for dispensing with the “test oath” in the case of the Rich mond grand jurors, it vyill be observed, however, that the. Judge screens himself behind a discretionary power, in this be half, vested in the courts by an act of Con gress It would have looked rather better if he had sought shelter under the decision of his own court —the highest in the land —rendered in the case exparte Garland. I have yet to see a single lawyer, deserving the title, who does not regard that decision as covering the wnoie ground, and declar ing the act of July, 186*3, prescribing the infamous oath, as unconstitutional, and ut terly null and void. People generally here and hereabouts are beginning to realize the situation, and to perceive that the new President will be wholly in the hands of the extremists of liis party. Even the National Intelligencer quotes with approbation an extract from a letter to the Cirtc'nuati Gazette, in which the announcement is authoritatively made, as follows: “ In spite of General Grant’s reticence, enough has leaked out concerning his views of the political- situation and the relations of parties, to effectually check the predic tion that Grant would .disappoint the Re publicans,- which slipped so glibly from Con servative, Ups a fortnight ago. lie has talked freely regarding political matters with sev eral prominent Republicans, and while, of course, no portion of this conversation can be published, it is not too much to say that these persons have been struck both with the clear and comprehensive view which the new President takes of public affairs and policy, and also satisfied with the'ear nestness with which he supports the gene ral features of Republican policy*. The gentlemen thus satisfied fire Radicals.” This was written by Mr. Boynton, son of the chaplain of the House, whose means of obtaining correct information of the movements of the Radicals, I have reason to know, are unrivalled. Democratic members of Congress arrive very slowly. This is a good sign. It shows that a very general inclination exists of pursuing a “ masterly inactivity” policy on their part. X. [From the New York World. Tlis Agitation in France. Affairs in France wear a threatening look, and the mind of Louis Napoleon is troubled. His reign, so tranquil for many years, may yet end in storm. Iu twenty years half a generation passes away, and a new one pushes,the grey beards from their stools. The year 1848 gave to the French man of that period a severe lesson concern ing the anarchy that might follow the de thronement. of a King and the socialism into which “ Liberty, Equality and Fra ternity ” might degenerate. But the wis dom of 1848 is foolishness in 1868, and the wise saws and prudent instances of the Frenchmen who still remember what hap pened when France last tried to govern herself, are stones of stumbling and rocks of ofl'ense to the new generation. That the latter have cause for irritation, no one can deny. They were in the nursery when their fathers, protected by bayonets, voted to place absolute power in the hands of the Emperor. They had nothing to do with that grant, and there are tilings about it that iu no wise please them. Throughout all Europe they see no absolute government save that of Russia and of France. In all Germany, in Austria, in Hungary, in Nor way and Sweden, and even in Spain, they see more freedom than they enjoy, while across the channel they are irritated by the spectacle of a nation which is a republic in all but the name. It is the age of consti tutional and responsible governments, in which the people control the ministry and the ministers control the sovereign—why should France be content to remain in the leading-strings of absolutism ? No one who has observed what has happened in Paris since the Spanish revolution can have failed to see that all the elements of hostility to the Emperor are growing in ac tivity and boldness. The Orleans party plots with*greater zeal; the Moderate Imperialists declare that unless the Emperor consents to the formation of a responsible ministry, a controlling Parliament, *and a free press, they cannot be answerable for the conse quences ; and the Republicans, who per haps make up in noise what they lack in numbers, are rampant, The Dews from Paris for the last fortnight has been chiefly made np of accounts of the doings of these zealous patriots, and the unhappy quarrel into which they have managed to drag the Emperor and the newspapers. On All- Souls’ Day, or “ Day of the Dead,” the Re publican politicians and the Republican workingmen of Paris went in crowds to Montmartre, where is the tomb of the depaty Baudin, a Republican member of the Assembly who was killed by bullets, of Napoleon’s troops at the storming of the barricades on the memorable 2d of Decem ber, 1851. They strewed the tomb of the martyr with flowers and shouted “ Vice la Republique /” It was as ff some of the adhe rents of the *5 Lost Cause ” had gone out to Bull Run, decorated the rebel graves with garlands, and returned to Washington over the Loug Bridge, shouting, “ Harrah for the Confederacy!” The next day the Liberal newspapers of Paris announced that a monu ment would be erected to the memory of Baudin, and promised to publish the names of subscribers to the fund. Subscriptions poured in, and the lists began to be pub lished. The new press law, which was pro mulgated as an act partially “crowning the edifice” of French liberty, contains a provision enacting that fine and imprison ment may be imposed on the conductors of journals who “ practice manoeuvres with intention to excite hatred against the Gov ernment.” No sooner had the Avenir Na tional, the Tribune , and the Discussion pub lished these subscription lists than their editors were summoned before the correc tional tribunal for a violation of -this law. While their cases were pending, the Sie.de,. the Opinione National, Le lemps, and some provincial papers committed the same of fense, and the Emperor saw himself not only insulted but defied. A few days be fore this the Moniteur had published a note prohibiting the newspapers from “ discuss ing the powers of the Chief of State,” and this is the way in which that warning was received. Meanwhile, the agitation spreads among the workmen. Taking advantage qf the recent law which "permits them to hold meetings for the discussion of trade interests, they assembled day after diy at the 8a He dc la Redouteaud discussed every thing else but trade interests, winding up at last with something very like a riot.— “ 0 peuple de Paris /” exclaims la France , iu referring to these tumultuous assem blages, "tu pretends etre le peuple le plus spirituel du monde! tu n'es quele peuple le plus leger et le plus intolerant! et, de plus, tu esiepeyple plus ignorant des chose.s pratiques qui soil sur la terre Whet her the people deserve this stinging rebuke any one who knows France may determine for himself. But it can scarcely be thought judicious in the Government lo provoke a.quarrel with the press at this juncture. Instead of re viving the unhappy memories of the past, as such a quarrel is sure to do, one would say that at this moment everything should be done to cause them to be forgotten.— The “ law of General Safety,” which is now revived, has many exasperating reminis cences connected with it. The law was passed immediately after the attempt of Orsini to kiil the Emperor; the public mind was agitated by the emotions pro duced by that crime; and the law was not very closely scrutinized until after its passage. It spoke of new offences —“manoeuvres, intrigues, fabrication of deadly machines, fulminating powder, the possession and conveyance of these means of destruction,” &c.; and it gave to the Government the power of transporting to Africa, without judicial trial, “every citi zen who had already suffered two political condemnations,” no matter of what nature. A list of suspects, comprising thousands of citizens, had been made out, and no sooner was the law passed than it was put in force. Many Frenchmen were torn from their homes, always in the night and with secre cy, and banished from the country without a trial, without knowing the accusation ggaiust them, and without the journals bc iug permitted to make known their fate. “ Such was the law of General Safety,” says the Sie.de, in a very bold rebuke of the action of the Government in its present quarrel with the press, “and such the memories recalled by each application of Hie provisions of this measure as are still in force. We should have thought the Government would be prudent enough not to re awaken these reminiscences; that it would at least allow to fall into desuetude i lie articles of the law which it had not the happy resolution to abrogate. It appears that we were mistaken." The Salubrity of Aiken.—A correspond ent Writes by he New York Evening Jfos*: UrnhWo"now at* Aiken, from Northern States, are much pleased with the climate, and the accommodations und fare of the hotel. We are happy to notice this as the experience of many, as the, hotel accommodations at those places at the South most frequented by inva lids have not been altogether satisfactory. The climate of Aiken has proved so benefi cial to (hose suffering from any affection of the throat or Jungs, or trom geueral debility, that ] a company has been formed of eminent physi i clans to establish, on an extensive scale, at | Aiken, 'a sanatorinti). Qne of the company, I Dr. flask well, of Connecticut, is now on his j way there to make preparations lor the recep | (ion of invalids at an early day. The Rev. Mr. Cornish is also engaged in a similar enterprise for invalid clergymen, in addition to the benefits to he derived from the climate, he designs setting his brethren of the clergy entirely at ease ns to the rates ol fare by making them welcome without any charge for board. We hope his benevolent design will meet with a liberal response from ail who feci an interest in (he welfare of the clergy. He has issued a pamphlet, wiiich-eontains much valuable information for invalids. In particular, we would call attention to an article in it “On Climate.in tbc Treatment of Pulmo nary, Tuberculosis, Ac. By Amory Coffin, M. P.” The pamphlet may be obtained gratis at the hook store of Pott St Ainery, Kos. 5 and ll>, Cooper Union, or at Derby’s Alhenisiuin, Broadway. The statements of Dr. Coffin with respect to the climate of Aiken are fully endorsed by Samuel Henry Dickson, M. D., Professor Prac tice in Jefferson Medical College, Philadelphia, formerly of the South Carolina Medical Col lege, and of tiie New York University. He says : “ I am in tiie habit of expressing myself more strongly on the subject than he has lone, _aiid nave advised many patients to spend their "Winters there, and have seen numerous in stances ot unequivocal benefit from its pure air and pleasant climate.”— Charleston News. Eight Hour System. The Government’s supervising architect, Mr. H. B. Mnllett, in his report to the Secretary of (he Treasury, says he has been embarrassed also by the eight hour system oh Government , work, and he tbiuks that the operation of the eight hour rule has been to retard the progress of public buildings, and lo increase their price. He adds that not only has be not been able to get as much work in eight hours as in ten, but that his experi ence is that in most cases much‘less work per honr has been done than under the old system. He further says: It appears to me that tiie law in force up to the [passage of tiie act which authorized Gov ernment* officers to con form to the rules and prices established by custom in the different localities, was not only eminently just, but liberal; the uniform practice on all works undercharge of this department having been to pay full market rates for labor, and to give the mechanics and laborers employed the full advantages of the local customs on all points, and to avoid interference in any manner with these questions. It i3 abo, in discussing this subject, worthy of remark, that a workman can earn a larger sum per annum when em ’ ployed ou public thau cn private buildings, at Ihe same per diem pay—there being a much smaller per centnge of lost time, aud employ ment being more permanent. It appears mani fest that the system of paying the mechanic who is employed on Government work the same price for eight hours that the one employ ed by private persons receives for ten hours, work is unjust. It has, at any rate, increased tiie cost of public buildings from 30 to 25 per cent, beyond the amount for which 1 can con sent to be held responsible. [LaC'rosse Democrat.
