1 a i.- is perhaps no subject upon which our
people are so -completely befog*,-d and lost in
•be inlet i.t words, ns in tho qauction of bouna
:iy between State aud Cunloderato authority-
AU men know that there must be a supreme
power somewhere, but whore is it V In Eng-
I ui.l the unwritten constitution is but the im
memorial customs of the land, and few have
i*...«*d-to intriage those rights of which “the
memory of man runneth not to the contrary. ’’
I mil power v.h ,-U lives so silently in English
records and English hearts, lives in this coun
try in a written document called the Constitu
tion; jnd because men dared to tamper with it,
tho old Union is in ruins.
Cw;ar kail his Brutus, CUnrles the First his
bb: inand Confederate leaders may profit
by tticir example.
Hu: this power behind the throne which is
so much greater than the throne, is not the
active but the silent power ; it is not combat
ive but conservative; and tho question then
is, not where does the supreme power exist,
out vv 1 ere is (lie supreme power exercised * In
England, the Parliament is supreme, aud be
ing the Supreme Court, it is above the Judi
cinry; and being the expounder of the Consti
tution, it is above’he throne. That same tu
preme department of Government exists here,
and must exist; not because the supreme law
of tiie land creates some grand central power,
bat because there must be a supreme expounder
Os tho supreme law. That power in the United
States and in the Confederate States resides in
tho State Legislatures. The simple law of the
limit of power can be expressed in a few wouß
The Congress of ihe Confederate Stales can only
do ishat ihe Constitution allows lhem to do, (he
Slate Legislature -s can do all that the Constitution
does not forbid ihini to do. That is, the General
Government, as the agent of the States, cannot
do anything but what the States have said in
writing that it may do. Tno States can do
everything but what they have promised in
writing not to do. But why insist upon this,
aud why uphold the absolute and ultimate
sovereignty of tbe Stales, and why hold the
agent down to the letter of the contract ?
Because these smaller territorial divisions
called States, are the best aud only means yet
devised to secure the libel ty of the people.
Every while person who is born, is absolutely
and entirely free, but his “ life, liberty and
pursuit of happiness” are not inalienable
rights. There is an implied contract among
all men, each gives up some poytjpr; cf
his nafm.it and personal rights, for the better
preservation of the political and general rights
of tho whole community. Therefore the ht™
of tho strongest which eixists among savages,
gives placo to the civilized law of the “ great
est good to tho whole ueople;’’ and for this
purpose, and this inly, ‘-are governments in
stituted among men, deriving their just powers
from tho consent of the governed.’’
But long exper'enee hath shown an inrane
disposition to paraphrase the wise maxim, of
“the greatest, good to the whole people,” and
to substitute the tyranny of the majority; and
that > dangerous creed of demagogies,
“tho greatest good to tho greatest number.”
True statesmanship denies Unit any trivial
right of any human being should ever be sac
riliped to any nioj >rity or any power for any
purpose, “
| Tiio eonscqnonco of the error has been that,
the “greatest number’’ in a Republic have al
ways claimed the rljjht to protect their own
nal or fancied rights at the expense of the
iri’n udy, and to advance their own interests
.to ih.:> ruin of .he few. How can that tenden
cy to tho law of tho strongest—tiio wish of the
many to oppress the few, bo best counteract
ed : In communities, punishments allixed to
equitable laws, secure iheir keeping;* but how
control vast bodies which defy prisons and cxe
rnt lons ? The general interests of the people sec
tlonal'ne, an I locality, soil and climate, create
dhrmitics. Consequently the sections of the
Confederacy called States, erabohy the local
interests of ail the parts; and when the majori
ties atlempt to oppress, <he minorities seek
shelter behind the reserved rights of the sev
ered States, and when thejn.jorlty is obstinate,
the minority nullifies or secedes.
For example, in t' e Union theXew England
States, for a teim of years wanted all the rest
of the Republic taxed to pay tlioft- fishing
boon!ice; Fonnsylvania wanted a tariff on iron;
tho great West wanted vast grants of land and
other appropriations tor internal improve
ments, and the whole North warped protection
t i hquie industry and river and harbor bills.
They united all their interests tor the purpose
of-secuTing the public plunder, and succeeded.
The vast agricultural minority of the South
grumbled but stilt paid for the articles on
which profit or duty was realized.
At hast the wise majority at the North un
dertook to trample too much upon the reserv
ed right of the South, and said that our runa
way n .r :os W.-ro free, the common territory
Ml theirs, amfour property at home not se-
•■ ure votes in Congress or John Brown
,'::i .s. \\ e tile iniuoiity became vexed at this
a.’ti.m, i*nd plainly told the North that we
would nol submit to any such outrages. But
how wore we to help oursHves t History tells
us that the majority had to use Congress or
the common agent. The minority denied any
written right to use the agent to impair vested
rigid?, ••the on-'y power conferred, being tbe
power coupled with the duty of guarding and
protecting the owner in his rights.” The few
interposed the barrier of State sovereignty
the ultimate, absolute sovereignty of the States
—between their weakness, and that wished
for “greatest good to the greatest number,”
which had culminated in the election of Abra
ham Lincoln. State sovereignty gave us the
right cf secession, the last desperate remedy
left to an outraged people. Therefore, we bold
the truth most evident that the only safuty
against the madness of the majority, reserved
to the few. is ihe separate and supreme Gov
■irmn-jot of the State.
Ho t do those plain principles apply to the
pres, nt time? We answer that a pa r ty in
pov- r, under the present Confederate Adifliais
: '..ion, asserts the right to place the peopleuu
i a dictatorship J and desperately strive to
t ’, elr own necks, by gagging the press, sus
l enJli. a the great law pf Habeas Corpus, and
putting everybody in the Rnpublv under nidi
lcry rule. How can wo keep the pwy in pow
er which urges the old fa'sei-ood, that private
right must be sacrificed for die public good
how keip thorn man do.-- ..ying ihe people

keep a cirzy n’-.i lily—it majority they have—
irom ruining themselves a;.i! the minority ?
The Barons of Koylmul to k their rig ok idem
King ‘J An wirh arms in (heir hands. Tbe
South defied a hostile Adminictratioa by -pi
rate State secession, and wa call upon the
Legislature of the State of Georgia soon to as
semble, ta interpose tho absolute sovereignty
of the State between the people and any more
bad laws.
YVemmagine the look of d.error with which
the worshipers of absolute powrr read tins
sentiments, but they are correct. Nullification
and secession are the last dread engines of self
preservation left to the States, and Georgia
having protested against any infiingeruent of
the liberty of lier sons, will sustain her pro
test to the last resort. We say the* last—for
unless rnatteia change, and unless those in
power take a different course in conducting
public affairs anil that speedily—we tear we
shall real ze all the fearful consequences of a
war within a war. . It does seem as if our Con
federate leaders—relying upon tho desperate
valor ot tho people to defeat the foe—also rely
upon their patriotic devotion of the common
cause to hide the rapid strides to centralization
and cover the despotic legislation of a subser
vient Congress.
To speak out plainly. The people of Geor
gia are freemen. Their liberties were pur
chased by the blood of honored patriots.—
Their liberties are a priceless inheritance.
They will not or part with them or allow
them to be wrested from thqy- grasp without
a struggle. They will allow no laws to be
exercised in this Commonwealth which aro
only lit Tor traitors. They will submit to no
-bonds which are only fit for slaves. They
have the remedy in tlic-ir own hands and they
will apply it.
The liberty of the people is entrusted to tho
guardianship erf the States. Let the Sover
eign Legislatures speak, and let the agents at
Richmond tremble ami obey.
On the Uh day of July, 18;5I, our respected
Vice Prc-iiiient uttered in a maiden speech some
wouls of warning, which thrill to-day like the
tones of inspiration. ITero they are ;
The alternative is new before you, and the
American people, a du-perate struggle—a res
cue of your Constitution-or a hopeless, per
petual slavery! Bo not deceived. Think me
not over-zealous. Think not that when the
General Government, shall have wandered from
i<« true path—and our liberties lost, there will
be nothing necessary but to arou.se tho people
—make them sensible of their lights—to be
free again. Thera is a principle abroad, as
false as it. is general, that anv people willing
cun be free. Bo not misled by its influence
while in possesion of liberty to place too iow
an estimate on its value. Its “price is eternal
vigilance.” And liberty once lost, is lost for
evei! Errors in Governments like diseases
in the body must be checked in thoir inception
snd tho only hope of American liberty is. tbe
preservation of all things in their
places. Fir, if power
“The wav’ring balance r'-nW
It’s rarely readjusted.” ’
It is tp.j ;ste to talk of remedies when tho
system, is slAttercd, and tho constitution is
broken. Rome was free. She became 1 emirs
—and Crew from pled upon her liberties. Aud
though Bnitus with ato v compatriots found
no difficulty in putting an end to h's ambitious
career, yet did they restore lost freedom to
that country? Let the bloody wars which en
sued that, tragical event and the number of
vilo competitors for a crown which figured
therein, specak forme, and tail to yog anfi the
people of this country, and tho people of all
countries, that liberty once lost, is lost forever!
Enslaved France, with indignation at outrages
upon her Tights, -proclaim*d with the united
voice <4 her millions, liberty and equality, yet
that proud nation after being desolated with
the ravages of war—and her wafers crimsoned
wit Ir tho blood of her bravest sons—and - the
regions of eveiv clime bleached with the bones
of liov soldi-.-iy, was reduced to a degree, ct
despotism more id j,vt than that from which
she emerged. Thetmlhis not always pur
chased with a snuggle, ever s.o daring, boid cr
patriotic, much less is it dependent upon a
bare wish or strong desire. Were this all,
Ireland would no longer groan under a British
yoke. France would not now have u citizen
king Spain would enjoy her rights. Italy
would show w'uat Rome was. Greece would
emulate the glory of the same land in ancient,
days. And a whole wo:Id would soon lie freed |
from bondage. For the love of librriy is nat
ural—it is innate—and ill-snot, as umiti sup
pose, tiie want of this principle which causes
so many despotisms among men. Nor need we
when wo have becoino ci Staved expect or hope
by au appeal to this principle to effect our re
demption any more than other people. Our
only hope is to know onr right* and to daie
maintain them, ''he question is now before
you. Choose yen whom you will servo. If
the General Government be tup:, me serve and
obey it as such, but if your own beloved Geo;-
gia is still sovereign, then come to her rescue.
We learn that General Johnston visited
President Davis a few days ago, and that the
two distinguished gentlemeir had a very free,
full and satisfaekuy intci view, in regard to
their past differences. Wo learn also from the
Enquirer, that the President was entirely mis
infoi lin’d as to the purposes and conduct of
Gen. Johnston in (bougie., and that had the
•acts been correctly reported to him there
would have probably been r.o change in the
command of tho army of Tennessee'.—L>jr-ch
bvrg, Virginian
This certainly is a queer stab merit. A lead
ing Seneral —one who had Mho entire confi
dence of his army and tho people of the State
in which Lis army was fighting—removed upon
hearsay testimony. The Enquirer says, had
the “facts been correctly reported” to him—
the Fre-iident—“there would probably have
been no change in the army of Tennessee.''
Whose duty was it to obtain the faebs 1 1f an offi
cer acts upon hearsay reports, and his ai ts
bring great calamities upon a country, who is
to blame ? A portion cf Georgia has been
laid waste and made desolate. Tho runoval
of Gen. Johnston was the cause. It is
now acknowledged that, ho was removed for no
fault of his own. Who should r- ceivo censun*
for our late, misfortu.nej ? We blame no one.
Wo merely state truths and ask questions.
The people can answer for themselves.

The Gkoboia Miuru.—The orgtn of the
Admiiiidratiosi at Richmond has o'.jjeially ac
cused Gov. Iho-.vn. of L ying to y.ijuro the cause
by keeping moil out of the service. The sup
ple tools of the Almioistvatioa in Congress
have boldly re le -erie-.l tiie bare-faccd and.
false assort ion. The organs of the Adminis
tration throughout ihe country have caught
up the cry aud are continually rolling it over,
aud over, us a “.--iveet morsifi undos t-heir
tongues.” Our street Generals also, who am

> V "'.on Gen. Julir.ston was in command of
t’-ear.uy of Term, -zee he npoko highly of the
itiavoryof the Georgia Militia. When Macon
w;>.3 att-nckeil by Siiciiuau, it was the Militia
of ibis Slate which rendered invaluable ser
vice.!! in th.e defence et tho city. At the Oco
nee bridge Geu. Wayne kept Bhorinau at bay
for some time, as ii were with but a handful
of those men. At the battle of lloney Hill,
on S-F.ith CV.roiki-i the Georgia Militia are
fluid to have wo a for tlvunsclvca an enviable
reputation tor gallantry and haul fighting. In
a Montgomery paper of Doc. 21, we find the
annexed :
