The Croand of Southern Opposition to the
Amendment.
The Legislature of Georgia yestorday
refected the Constitutional amend mont, by a
vote which as to all Intents and purposes
unanimous. As the ground-work on which
they base their action, th Conmltteo on
Federal Relations subbmittid a report, of
which the following is the substance:
"First. That the States of the United H'n'e
aloue are authorized to corn! ler Constitutional
Biiipndinents.
"Second. That such amendment must ba
proponed to Congress by the Legislatures !
two-thirds of the State.
"Third. That Georula was one of the oritriiial
State, and must always have continued such
unless she reserved the riuht to recede, or pave
the Federal Government the rfcut to eject her."
The argument then goes on to declare that
Georgia and the other States a-e integral
parts ot Congress; and no constitutional
Congress can be convened while such Inte
gral portions are forcibly excluded. Itsav3
the adoption of the emancipation amend
ment was no precedent for the adoption ot
this, the Southern States having at that tima
no delegation to be received into Congress,
as now, when denied admittance. It con
duces by saying that, as the amendment in
question was not proposed by two-thirds of
the constitutional Congress, the committee
recommends the adoption of the resolution
above given.
It will be noticed that the cause for the
refusal to ratify has not been tound in any
Injustice on the part of the conditions pro
posed, but merely on the illletrality oi the
manner in which they were submitted. No
one is prepared to deny the first assertion.
In regard to the second statement, we do not
understand very definitely what it means.
The Legislatures of two-thirds of the States
do not propose amendments to Congress. On
the contrary, two-thirds of Congress must
propose them to the States. Let us look,
however, principally at the deductions as set
forth In the third place.
We "grant that Georgia was one of the
original States but we deny that Georgia
as it stands to-day is the same Georgia which,
in 1789, ratified the old Constitution. The
chain of continuity has been broken. In
1861 ail the officers and all the people of the
old State forswore their allegiance to the
United States. For four years they main
tained by force of arms their independence.
During that time all of the officers elected
under the laws recognized by the United
.States had ceased to ba officers by the expi
ration of their terms of offlco. Supposing even
that some of them hud been loyal, and were
loyal public servants, they would have gone
out of office by the time for whicli they ;vere
elected having passed. So that when the
Rebellion was subdued in Georgia, the old
State had no officers and no citizens . There
was no Legislature, no Governor, no Sheriffs,
no public officials of any kind. The citizens
by her rebellion, had also forfeited their lives
their property, and all their rights. No one
will deny that, had the Government seen fit,
it had a perfect right to confiscate all South
ern property, and execute or exile any Rebel.
The State ot Georgia was, therefore, in 1805
a name, not a reality; an essence, not
a creation. A number ot people in
habited the territory called Georgia
but no more constituted the old State
than did the Normans, when they had
subdued England.continue the old Saxon king
doms intact, In this extremity, the Presi
dent of the United States proceeded to recon
struct, not restore, the States. He did so by
virtue of his power as commander of the
army. His action was a military necessity,
and his newly created States were no more
States, legally, than is an army a Congres
sional district. Before these new creatures of
the Executive will could be entitled to civil
rights and representation, they must be re
cognized by Consress. With the Legislative
power rests the right to recognize new Slates ;
and, to all intents and purposes, these recon
structed States are new Commonwealths.
Congress has not yet recognized them, and
until it docs, they are not equal States, en
titled to all the rights of their loyal shtcrs.
If this argument he true, the State of
Georgia, which is now proceeding to deblare
Itself the old State founded in 1770, is not
that State at all, by a creation which dates
back into the summer of 1805, and which was
formed by the action of but one branch of
the Government of the United States. As
such, it had no right to be allowed a voice in
the adoption of the Constitutional amend
ment; and that its ratification Is asked is
rather that we may have a pledge from her
of her loyal spirit than vhat her assent is
necessary to make the amendment the su
preme law of the land. If this be true, then
wty submit the amendment to the Southern
States at all ? We answer, simply, that so far
as its being a law Is concerned, we do
not deein that their assent or refusal has any
thing to do with the matter. But it is an
Inchoate contract, one which does not go Into
orce, so far as one party Is concerned, until
the'aaaent ot that party is secured. When a
Territory demands admission into the Union
as ft fetate, Congress Imposes certain condl
tiona. No one can deny that Congress could
pass ft law embodying these conditions, and
make It bbiioj oa tu Territory. But as a
THE DAILY EVENING TKLEGKArn TUU'I.K SltKKT.
guarantee on tlte part of Uie apoticant, it
waives ita right to exact, snd as'm as a con
dition of admission the adoption of certain
principles. The moment that the applicant
accepts these propositions, the contract is
binding on both parties, and the new State is
entitled to representation. '
So It is with the Constitutional amendment
reectcd by Georgia. She has a perfect right
to reiect the proposition the same right as
a Teiritory has to reject the Constitution
submitted to it by Congress, as Congress has
also ti e right to refuse admission until its
terms are agreed to. And Congress, having
that right, will exercise it, it the South ex
cludes iteelt until the last trumpet Bhall
sound.
If the Stale of Georgia, so called through
courtesy, should accept the amendment, she
would be at once admitted. The precedcut
in the case of Tennessee renders that certain.
She would once more enjoy all her oldrlghU,
and be a full State by the recognition of Con
gress. But let her beware. The door is not
always open, and the easy conditions now
submitted, If persistently scorned, will be
succeeded by others which will compel her to
pass under a yoke to which the Iron collars
forged on the necks of Roman slaves will
appear, by comparison, as golden ornaments.
The loyal spirit will not always chide with
traitors, and they who now refuse the prof
fered hand may ere long ba compelled to kiss
the rod.
Popular Acquiescence in the Decision o
the Rallot-Box.
Tni TtK is oue thing about our country that
foreigners can never understand, and that is
how it is possible for the people to become so
wrought up with excitement previous to our
elections, and then so instantly to relapse into
quiet when they are over, and the decision is
made. In other countries such a condition
of popular agitation would be the precursor
of revolution ; but with us it merely indicates
the recurrence of our usual and established
occasions for determining the popular will.
Never has this phase of American character
been more signally illustrated than in the
elections this fall. Probably no previous
elections ever held in our country . ere more
hotly contested, or called (ortu m 3re interest
on the part of the people. Certainly public
meetings were never more largely attended,
and public and private discussions were never
more sharp and exasperating. But the elec
tions have passed, and we behold the entire
country return to its accustomed quiet. The
verd'et of the people, lawfully expressed, is
accepted by all parties. Our party journals
turn to the discussion of questions ot finance,
public, improvements, literature, art, and the
thousand other things of every-day interest
to the community ; our stump speakers cease
their patriotic and Inspiring harangues to
the masses; our political clubs lay aside their
torches and tiansparencics until some future
contest shall call them forth; the defeated
candidates philosophically reflect upon the
uncertainty of all mortal affairs in general
and political affairs in particular, while the
victors quietly "accept the situation," and
enter upon the performance of their duties.
There is something very encouraging in all
this to the believer in popular self-government.
It shows a reverence on the part of
the people for the established methods of
deciding political questions, which is of the
highest Importance in agovernment like ours.
Indeed, we may say not only that it is im
portant, but absolutely essential; for without
this prompt, cheeiful, unhesitating acqui
escence in the decisions of the people at the
ballot-box, popular self-government Is im
possible. We have never had, in our whole
history as a nation, but one attempt to appeal
from the decisions of the people, lawfully and
constitutionally expressed; and that was in
the late Rebellion. The result of that experi
ment should be a lesson to all those in the
luture who may be tended to repeat it.
Our popular elections are vital to our sys
tem ot government. The ballot-box is the
palladium of our liberties. Hence, it is to
the interest of every citizen that the utmost
safeguards should be thrown around it. The
popular acquiescence in the result of elec
tions, which is so gratifying a feature of our
political character, is due very much to the
general conviction of their purity. And as
a great fact, taking the whole country to
gether, probably no elections are held in any
other country which can compare with our
own in freedom from alt corrupting influences.
It Is to the Interest of all of us that they
should continue to be so ; tor whatever tends
to pollute the ballot-box pours poison into the
very fountains of our civil lite.
It is, perhaps, too much the fashion among
our people to dwell upon that aspect of the
suffrage question in which the elective fran
chise is regarded as a right rather than as
a privilege. No doubt it is a right, but H 1
also ot the nature of a solemn trust. No man
has any moral right to use that trust except
for the highest good of the whole people ; and
it is the imperative duty o the Government
to throw around its exercise such safeguards
as shall the most effectually secuie such a use
of it
In the light of this discussion, every good
man must deplore certain practices which
are growing up connected with our elections,
such as the use of money, promises of office,
betting on elections, and the like. All ot
these things tend to render our elections less
pure, and to diminish the binding character
of their results upon the people. On the
other hand, we must rejoice at the more
stringent safeguards, such as registry laws
and the abolition of night hours for receiving
votes, which are now being generally adopted
In all the States. To preserve the purity of
the ballot-box ought to be the aim of all par
ties and of every good citiwa.
The Citent Meteoric hhowets.
pRorEesoB Nkwton, of Yale College, and
other scientific men of this country and
Europe, have predicted that on next Wednes
day morning the earth will pass through a
nebulous group of wandering bo'lics. or aste
roids, and that the testlt will be a gtand dis
play of meteors, or rboDtin stars. In order
that our readers may be fully apprised ot the
character of this magnificent display of
heavenly fireworks, wo publish ou our eighth
page to-day a carefully prepared and illus
trated article, which gives the history o
similar phenomena in the past. It wiil well
repay perusal, even in caso the shower of
stars should not come off according to the
programme laid down for it.
But so oufldeiit ars. the savans who have
predicted the tri-ccntttinial recurrence of the
meteoric phenomenol on a grander scale
than any heretofore witnessed, that pre
parations are being made to observe it
throughout the world. Owing, however, to
the intricacy of the calculations on
which the prediction is based, together
with the insufficient liata of a reliable char
acter at their command, the wise man have
been unable to say mat the exhibition will
occur at any precise point of timo. It will
therefore be necessary for those who wish to
witness it to be os the lookout on Tuesday
morning as well as on Wednesday. The
authorities of Bostot have determined to save
its citizen? the necessity of this prolonged and
wearisome ninrht- wat.b by announcing the arri
val of the stars, whenever it may occur, by the
general ringins of the fire-alarm bell. This
suggestion is a good one, and we would call
the attention of our own authorities to the
subject by requesting them to make a similar
arrangement fof arousing the people. When
the whole heavens are on fire, there can be
no objection to sounding a general alarm.
The California Terminus ol the Pacific
Ilnilroad.
The public are getting pretty well posted as
to the progress of the two Eastern terminal
branches of the Pacific Railroad. It is in
teresting to know that the work is being
vigorously prosecuted on the California ter
minus. Ihe President of that portion of the
road has just made a report to the Secre
tary of the Interior, from which we
learn that the road is in operation as
far as Cisco, within twelve miles of
the summit ot the Sierra Nevada, a distance
of ninety-four miles from Sacramento. The
work near the summit is of a heavy and diffi
cult character, involving the construction of
two tunnels, respectively 1600 feet and 000
feet in length. The heaviest grade thus far
made Is one of 110 feet to the mile, and lor a
distance of only three and one-half miles.
It Is believed that Salt Lake will be reached
from the California side during the next tour
years. From present indications, tho same
point will be reached equally soon from this
side. We shall not be surprised to behold
the cars running through to San Francisco
before the 1st daj of January lt7(.
Horace Jree!ey Proposed (or the Senate.
The Legislature of New York, at its next
session, will have a United States Senator to
elect. The New York Herald, in a banter
ing, half Berious article, proposes the name of
Horace Greeley as a candidate. The State
of New York might do a great deal worse,
and could hardly do much better, than to send
Mr. Greeley to the Senate. On the grounds
of party services he is eminently entitled to
tie seat, but on the higher grounds of fitness
for the duties of the position, a wise compre
hension of the demands of the age and coun
try in which we live, and especially as the
life-long foe of official corruption, extrava
gance, and dishonesty, should we rejoice to
see Horace Greeley in the United States
Senate. His election to that office would be
a matter of public congratulation throughout
the entire country.

A bold uunor.ARv.
Yom tiif Olron Tonm avd Fryman, Xavenibrrl.
The banking ottlco of Ktowcll, Chamberlain & Co.. ot
this village, was eutered tbls morning about .1 o'clock
by burglars, tbe Sa e being blown open and rifled ol lis
contents about SloftU cunency and a latge amour t of
tioverutnent Holes Honda etc. A llneiai reward will
be ollered lor the apprehension of the burglars and re
covery of tbe stolen oiopeny.
'I be office was evident. v entered by forcing the nortli
window, by means ot a Jimniv" In the lorin ot a ioiii
blnnd wedge or chisel and lever, tound ou.side. Tbeu
the ontslde door was opened by drawing screws on In
side trnm that poriiou ol the door lock Into which the
boltsl'oes in locking. All the windows were thoroughly
"blinded," by tasteolnv inside, beiore the windows,
with shoemakers' Kw a and tacks, pieces oi rubber or
oil cloth, so that no light could be seen from wiihouL
Wlthitucse precautions, the burglars could conduottbetr
operations with comparative safety. The Sa was one
oi Llllie's Fire and liunilnr Proots, but appears to have
been entered with silgbt ditlloultv. A hole a little
larger than a common clay pipe-atem was diil ei Into
oue ol the outer doois. near tbe lower corner of the
door furthest trom tho hinge, in which, alter exesvat
ingsnfllclentlv, gnnpowdcr was lutroduced and a tnsa
insorted, a portion ot which remained in tbe hole when
the robbery waa discovered. The ellcct ot ihe explosion
seems to have been to burst sounder the outer and
Inner plates ol tl.e door and to break oil' the lower
hlnvca. j be locks o' the doors were uninjured.
'l he Inner door of tbe Sate was drilled and exploded In
the same manner as ihe ouu-r. Ihe banc will lose bv
t'lecpvratlou probably n t far Irom aUlsi as the amount
of currency en hand, about 'l, was unusually small.
m r. stowe I hsvlua gone to New l ork with a a jnaider
able amount tbe evening n evlous.
'l be loss in bonds, notes, etc., by special depositors. It
Is impoxfible to ascertain cttlui ely as no account waa
made by the bank, except a mere memorandum of the
packages. ThefO losses ol course, will be tue loss ol'
the depositors, as ihey were merely deposited tor sale
keeping, ihe bauk not becoming responsible.

was a double one, made by Lewis Lll . ot Troy, ot the
largest size, weighing many thousand pounds, 'tbe bur
glars obtained an entrance Into the ortlco by prying
open one ot the windows with a limmv. In the lower
left band corner of tbe right band outer door of tbe saie,
which waa two Inches thick, a hole was drilled, tbrough
which powaer was Introduced. It wu blown open,
separating tbe outside from the bolts and inside casing,
rendering It a complete wreck. The lower binges oi
both doors were broken off Tbev next attacked the
Inside sale, which was two feet high, extending the
wldib and depth of tbe inside ot the main sate. This
safe waa one and a half inch thick, made with foWmg
doors. Ibey drilled another bole through the right
band door in nearly tbe aame point they bad on tbe
outside sale, blowing open both doora This gave them
access to the money and bonds amounting to twenry
flve thousand dol'ara, which they carried off. The
larger portion ot this belonging to special depositors.
Ihey also took valuable papers belonging- to tba urm.
leaving In their flight a bag of gold and silver also a
hundred dollar bill. This safe was made to order by Mr.
Llllle, of chilled iron, and was supposed to be burglar
proof, as It waa a double safe, one Inside of the other,
