A meeting of the Democratic City Execu
tive Committee was held yesterday afternoon
at 2 o'clock, at the Wetherill House, Sansom
Btreet, above Sixth. Isaac Leech, Esq., pre
sided, and Eugene Woodward and A. A.
Laws acted as secretaries. Mr. J. K. Chad
wick, chairman of the special committee to
whom was referred the question of negro suf
frage, made a report, which, on motion, was
unanimously adopted by the general com
mittee. The report set forth that the Constitution
of the United States was ordained to be the
basis of the system of representative demo
cracy, by which the sovereignty of the States
could only be maintained, the Federal Gov
ernment established, and the union of these
States preserved; that the Democratic party
was created to proclaim and defend this sys
tem, and had civen to the people, for over
ball a century, constitutional government;
but through a division of that party, the ene
mies of the Constitution fa minority of the
people gained the political power in the
Government, and began a scheme to esta
blish themselves as the Government, in de
fiance of the Constitution of the United
States that since 18(10 to the present hour,
the enemies of the Constitution in Congress
and the State Legislatures have by frauds,
orimes, force, and violence, in utter disregard
cf the Constitution of the United States,
subverted the rights of the people and
the citizen, and are maintaining the power thus
gained by force of arms; that dreading retri
butive iustice. thevhave undertaken to justify
their acts by a pretenced amendment to the
restitution that the Democratic party.
iincr nn the cower of the people, does now
proclaim that these so-called amendments to
nnnRtitntion are unconstitutional, void.
and of no effect, because they are Congres
sional usurpations consummated by fraud,
.nd violence in open deflanoe to the
law and not such amendments to the Consti
tution as that instrument itself permits
hecause they were never submitted to nor
kwL States that the Constitution
ruTenkes as sovereign wid Independent
governments, but were forced upon subju
gated people by military despotism. The
report then continues:-'-r n ; M " ' :
That on behalf of ' thg Democratic party of
the city of Philadelphia the City Executive
Committee hereby protests against the frauds,
violence, usurpations, and revolutionary acta
of Congress in forcing its usurpations, under
the same of the so-called amendments of the
Constitution, on the people of the United
States.
That the committee hereby protest against
the acts of Congress whereby the Federal
judiciary has been corrupted, overawed, and
subjugated to obey the direction of this legis
lative rranch of the Government, the better
to enable it to destroy the Constitution of the
Fathers of the republio and to establish a
despotism in its place.
That the committee proclaims its abhor
rence of the fraud, force, and violence by
which Congress is usurping all the powers of
the Government; and it deplores the weak
ness, folly, and incompetence of him who
now occupies the Executive Mansion, where
Washington watched over the first experi
ment of constitutional government; where
Jefferson proclaimed the true principles by
which it could be successfully administered,
and where Jackson protected both the Con
stitution and the union of the States a
nnion the Constitution only could create
by his patriotism and his firmness.
That, as the enemies of the Constitution,
having failed to "restore the Union, re-esta
blifih the Government, and give the people
peace," now deolare that they are unequal to
the task and seek to bring to their aid an ally
which the Democratic party does not court, a
race, which is only to be, in fact, the instru
ment by which the enemies of the Constitu
tion can maintain power at the sacrifice of
the constitutional Government established by
the fathers, the Democratic party ask the
governing or white race in the United States
to save itself from the debasement of being
ruled by the negro and thus forced to live
under a system of government which Poland,
Greece, Ireland and Cuba would reject.
