The Times and Sentinel Enforcement
of Federal Laws.
The Columbus Times & Sentinel iu reply to
an article of our’s pute forth this proposition:—
"It bona Sovereign State in convention assembled
declares a law of congress unconstitutional, and
t he re fore void, wo bold the Federal Qovernmemt
has no right to enforce obedience U> the law so i
nullified by calling out the militia, as the Pkkss i
suggests, or by the use of the army and navy of I
the United States.” —Per con ha: The Imleptndent j
dSess holds that the Federal Government has the I
,power, first from the constitution of the United j
States, and 2dlv from the law of nature to enforce
obedience on the part of the States to its laws. Now
to the law and the testimony.
I. —Section vm of the Constitution of the
United States defines the powers of Congress. —
We iiud iu this section the following:
“Congress shall have power--
30.—T0 provide for calling forth the militia to ex
ecute the laws of the Union, suppress insurrections,
and repel invasions.'
Now it is to oo noticed that the very tirst power
-mentionedhere is the power to execute the laws of
the Union, and the next mentioned is the power
to suppress insurrections. In this we see the wis- !
doiii of tiiose who organized our constitution: — j
For without the power to execute its own laws j
a government is not a government—its constitution
and laws mere ropes of sand.
It is to be noted 2dly, that the constitution does ;
not speak ol executing the constitutional laws ol
the L moil, but simply “me laws of the Union.' — !
When a law is passed by Congress it is presumed •
by the emisiit itiou to oe passed in accordance |
with its provisions, auu is dc judo the law of tiie j
land, and must be executed, as such, by the “mi- j
iitia" if necessary, unless indeed it bo declared ,
void by a court contemplated by the constitution. j
This is the only constitutional or utsvaxi way of ai- i
rest.ng ite action long as it remains ti|»oti the j
statute re uno jil 1 . menus ol . .est- *
logits /peration, .vin.-'Ui its - .-•uinboiiai repeal. ■

bv n.eaus oi the “militia” does not say “unless j
those ia..3 oc uuliiued by a state,” but says simp- 1
Iy "to execute me .a--s oft,. Uui>n And upon j
what provision of- the constitution does the limes 1
St Statius'; found tin. power of a state to nuihly a '
lav, oi tic Union i Upon the clause which re- <
•• i
serves tiie rignts not delegated, and asss m tri- i
uinph, “Uu.eas t.ns veto power is conceded to a i
state, ’.. cat is me meaning of mat clause of the ;
connotation wit ten declares that 'all powers not i
delegated to the United state:-, are reserved to the i
States respectively or to the people ?’ ” Now, how i
any sane man can derive a power to nullify under j
this clause, we are at a loss to know. It simply
means that Congress shall pass no law contrary to :
the constitution, or m derogation of the common I
rights of the people. Does any reasonable man
suppose that if tiie framers of our government had i
designed to elotlie a citato with tiie power to mil- |
lify a fide:a! la-/, it would not have none so iu :
terms not to be misunderstood ? Wot; and they have j
left it to “implication, the oid federal heresy ?” Our j
cotemporary places tiie power of a State to veto a j
federal law, along with the power of the president \
to veto one. Why was not the constitution, then, ;
equally as explicit as to the power of the State to. i
veto, as to that of the president to veto? It is ;
paying tiie founders of our government but a j»oor j
compliment to suppose they would not have said
in terms a state may veto, if they hail intended to j
convey that jic rer. .i body ol tools would have |
done so—much more the body of wise men who i
adopted our constitution.
11. —But we hold that the federal government j
has the power by the law of nature, and from the j
very essence of government to enforce obedience on
the part of a state to its laws. Instead of offering ar- !
gument, just now, to support tlds proposition, we j
will merely quote authority. We take it fer grant- ;
«*d that Mr. Jefferson is good authority with our ,
■ cotemporary. In a letter to E. Carrington, he ■
holds the following language:
“It has been so often said as to be generally be- !
lieved, that Congress have no power by the Con
federation to enforce any thing; for example, con
tributions of money. It was not necessary to give
them that power expressly; they have it by the law
■of nature. When two parties make a compact,
there results to each a power ot compelling tiie
other to execute it. Compulsion was never so easy
as in our case, where a single frigate would soon
levy on the commerce of any state the deficiency
of its contributions; nor more safe that, in the hands
of Congress which has always shown that it would
wait, as it ought to do, to the last extremi
ties, before it would execute any of its powers
which were disagreeable.”— ll Jefferson's Works,
203.
Now does not this look like forcing a state, aud
that too with the navy ? This, too, was under the
Confederation, much weaker than our present gov
ernment. Mr. Jefferson says a state may be forced,
even if the constitution does not confer the power.
How much in >re may it be forced, when, in ad
dition to the law of nature, the Constitution ex
pressly provides for “calling forth the militia to ex
ecute the laws of the Union 1”
As farther'authority we will quote from a speech
of Mr. Giles ujh>ii the subject of the Embargo—Mr.
Giles who, our. ootcuiporary says, did not consider
his (our cotcrnporary’si ideas aerial and transcen
■deutal:
“i am now approaching a part of this subject
Mr. President, which (ills me with regret.
♦ * * * * *
-I allude, sir, to the execution of the embargo laws;
,or, rather, sir, to the suggested incapacity of the
government to enforce their observance. Iho
gentleman from Connecticut, (.Mr. iiilihousc,) tells
ais directly that the government has not power to
•enforce the execution of these iaws. The gentle
man from Massachusetts, 'Mr. Lloyd,) even points
out the mode of r ‘siatunce, He tells us they may
be resisted, first, by town meetings, than by peti
tions, then by legislative resolutions, and, finally, by
insurrections and rebellion.
* * * * * * *
“But, Mr. President, I believe this government
does possess power sufficient to enforce the embar
go laws. The real character of our government
iseems to be entirely misunderstood by foreigners,
and not fully appreciated by some of our own
citizens. It has all the strength of execution, with
the most despotic governments upon earth. It is
aided too, by the knowledge of every citizen that
"yfii/ia its will is pronounced, it is the fair expres
sion of the will of the majority. The chocks of
.this government arc exclusively upon its delibera
tions, not upon its powers of execution. Ho far
from it, that the constitution has expressly provid
ed, that the government should possess all means
necessary and proper for executing its specified
powers. There is no limitation, whatever, upon
the means for executing the general will, when fair;
j ,ly and deliberately pronounced. Nothing could be
more absurd than to suppose, that after so many
chocks had been imposed upon deliberation
in pronouncing the public will, after that will was
.thus pronounced, that any means, whatever, lor
jts execution should bo withheld.”
// U. 208—0, 400.
| U. S. Government has power to execute the lawß
I of the Union, not only when resisted by-individuals.
J but when resisted by a State.
' Our cotempoHlry Embargo laws wore
I never declared unconstitutional by a State.’’ As
against our cotemiioraiy’s assertion we quote as
follows: j
“In most; of the State legislatures of New Eng
land. there was a systematic purpose to deleftt the
measures of the general government, especially in
preventing the execution of the law last enacted
for enforcing tho Embargo.’’
I Statesman s Manual 16d—4.
“The legislature of Massachusetts pronounced
it, [the Embargo.] an unconstitutional Act.
I Garland's Life Randolph, 2 GO.
Mr. Bayard, a Federalist, and opponent of the
Embargo, stud in reply to the speech of Mr. Giles
already quoted:
“ We all know that tho opposition to the Embar
go in the Eastern States is not the opposition of a
political party, or of a few discontented men, but
the resistance of the p-oplr to a measure which
they feel oppressive and ruinous;”
II Eloquence U. S., 508?
j So it will be seen that although there was a syste
matic opposition on the part of the legislatures of
most of the New England States to the Embargo—
though Massachusetts pronounced it unconstitu
tional, and though the people ot tho Now England
States resisted it as oppresive and ruinous, dill Mr
Jefferson, the founder oi' the republican party, asked
for and obtained a law at t ic hands of a republican
Congress to force obedience on the pad uj these nulli
fying States and people. Aud ns we asserted be
fore, if wc are not mistaken, Messrs Giles, Kppes,
Macon, Calhoun, Crawford and Troup voted for Mr.
Jefferson's force bill. A rid yet our contomporarry
wishes to bring in Mr, Jefferson, and these men, as
supporters of his aerial notions of State sovereign
ty.
But the Times tfc Sentinel says that “ Mr. Cal
houn was one of the most strenuous opponents of
this system of (Embargo) measures,” and intimates
that he did not vote for Mr. Jefferson’s force bill.-
It is very true that Mr. Calhoun was at first an op
ponent of the Embargo: But it is equally true that
he finally voted for it.
“The Embargo failed on the first reoonnneml.i
tion; but at the next session, being reeoinmeuded
again, it succeeded. Mr. Calhoun at the earnest
entreaties of friends, and to prevent division iu the
party when their union was so necessary in the
success of the war, gave it a reluctant vote.”
Life of Calhoun pp. 13, 14.
From the authorities which we have hastily ex
amined, our impression still is that Mr. Calhoun
also voted for the act to enforce the Embargo, not
withstanding it was declared unconstitutional by
Massachusetts.
And now, having examined the main i sues, it
remains for us to notice some of the-random asser
tions. and promiscuous talk of our coteinporary.—
And surely wc have already shown that he has
made some very random assertions, or what is the
same thing, asserted some tilings very much at ran
d- .i). We will proceed seriatim.
Our cotemporary quotes against us tho Virginia
Resolution which says that a Stale may interpose
"In ease of a deliberate, palpable and dangerous
exercise of other powers'not granted by the consti
tution.” And for what does our coteinporary
quote this resolution? For the purpose ot showing
that we are wrong in assailing tiiat tiie President
may use the army and navy of the United Slates in j
enforcing the .fugitive slave law. even though .'“ki
lled by an abolition State: For the issue tendered
by us iu our other article to the Times and; Sentinel
was this—that the constitution empowered the
federal executive .ouse Urn army aud navy to en
force tiie fugitive slave law. With this assertion
our coteinporary joins issue, of tuis puts himself up
on the country, and brings forward as law the Vir
ginia Resolution alluded to ai>ove* Hence we are j
to infer tha. our cotempo ary Relives the fugitive i
slave law to be a “case of deliberate, palpable, and i
dangerous exercise of powe. r.ot granted by the j
constitution.' 7 This it must believe or must see that j
tiie law brought to bear upon the issue joined, is j
applicable to some other case than the c-Tfo at !
bar.
Our cotemporary 3113-3 that if we do not admit its
idea ot state sovereignty, a-rial as it may be,” we
would have bad to join the Northern militia against
•our State in the days of “Troup and the Treat}',”
aud have had to hang that old hero. Not so! Not
sol We would have joined Troup, but would not
have put our safet}- upon an abstraction, but have
depended upon the “stout heart” of Troup, and
the “ strong arms ” of Georgians. As to tho
hanging part, we do not hold that a person resis
ting a law, constitutional or unconstitutional
1 j
under state autnority, subjects himself to treason
aud the Halter, but morel}' to tho chances of war. i
The Times & Sentinel alludes to the tide of an- :
ti-slavery feeling at the North, the probability tha t i
Die abolitionists will get control of the federal govern
| ment, aud wield it against Southern slavery, and
says, “There is but one barrier behind which the
South can throw herself—and that barrier is th 0
impregnable rampart of State sovereignty, which the
Independant Press is so anxious to break down.”—
Is the Times & Sentinel really so unsophisticated
as to think that its idea of State sovereingty would
afford the Soutli any protection in the event it con
templates? Does it think a mere abstraction
thrown around the South will guard her against the
darts of her enemies? Does he think tiiat mere
theoretical nullification is a sword like that which
guarded the entrance to Eden, to protect the rights
of the South? If the abolitionists should obtain
control of the federal government, doc-sit believe
they will be deterred from their purposes by its theory
of the constitution, when they d.sregard tho plain
letter of that instrument?
After the storm which drove Aeneas to the shores
ofLybia. Venus appeared to him and his followers,
and surrounded them in a cloud that they might be j
invisible, and thus be saved from all harm:
At Venus obscure graiiciites aere sepsit
Jst multo nebulae eircum Dea fudit amictu:
Cernere ne quia eosneu quiseontingere posset,
Molirive moruin, nut veniendi poscerc causa's.
I Aeneidos 411—14
And Venus did with misty air surround,
The travellers then upon their journey bound—
A round their pathway guardian clouds she spread,
That fate might hurl no evil on their head.”
Akin to this serial vesture of cloud is that with
which the Times dL* Sentinel would surround the
South. Let it remember that its shield is the inven
tion of a mortal, while that which protected Virgil’s
hero, was the scheme of agodess—one who by her
beauty and blanishments had just interested “,Tovo
and fate” in behalf of her son. Let our cotempora
ry know that its cloudy philosophy will bo no pro
tection to the South. If it depends upon that it is
leaning upon a broken recd—ic hangs its hopes up
on a rope of sand.
Wo are not trying to break down the sovereignty
of the States as our cotemporary suggests. Wo
wish them to be sovereign in everything except
those powers which they have delegated to the Fed
eral Government. In these delegated powers the
general government is sovereign us the States aro
sovereign in their reserved rights.
Nor did we wait for tne suggestion of our cotem
porary to read Mri Calhoun's work on government
■"Soon after that volume was published, we gave it
our serious attention. And grand and noble lis wo
know this monument to Mr, Culhouu's genius to he,

Great Animal Show.
Agroatuulm u snow recently came off in Sprifigthna
Ohio. The animals belonged to the genus ’ot hi
(>eds, class mammal iu. The first premium for the
finest young animal, a two-year-old, or under, was
valued at, sßuo. The second premium for the next
best young two-year-old wass2oo. .The third pre
mium* was s*H>o for the finest oiie-yc-ur-old. There
was also a fourth premium.
Tho first premium was awarded to Mrs. Homme of
Vienna, Ohio, who exhibited the finest animal;
the second to Mrs. McDowell of Cincinnati; the third
to Mrs. Arthur of l'hihulophia; the fourth to Mrs.
Howe of Cincinnati.
The crack nag, Fanny Fern, was much talked of
on the occasion.
Betters were received from Mrs, Swissiielm, Mrs.
Crittenden, Mrs. Mott A Horace Grcely. Horace
thought tlmt much attention should hi given to the
deve'opement of the animal frame, inasmuch asuble
bodied animals were now worth from SOOO to SISOO
apiece.
Mrs. Mott thougt that black animals should have
been admitted to the exhibition.
One old animal was exhibited with her seven-,
tf-enth young one.
One hundred and twenty young aniinals were en
tered. They were all crowded together under a
tent to bo exhibited to the committee, and it is stated
t hat their dams seemed to be conscious of the pur
pose lor which they were brought together, ami ap
peared to take a pride in the exhibition of their
young. It is a well known fact in natural history
that these animals do sometimes show a degree of
sagacity bordering upon the confines of intelligence.
It will be noticed that all the exhibitors of stock
upon this occasion were females. We suppose this
is the result of woman’s rights. Weil if they show
themselves the superiors of men in breeding fine
animals, we suppose it is all right. In the im
provement of stock great attention should be paid
to the qualities of both the dam and sire.
