nied; and T express my views as well as
am able without that assistance which I
link they ought to have rendered. i
No one denies that a Federal, as welt as}.
a State officer, acting without constitutional
authority to the injury of any one is liable
to be sued for his acts in the State courts,
and I am quiteunable to discover that there
is any distinction in such cases between pre-
ventive and redress.ve remidies. As at
present advised I cannqt doubt that the
State courts, having authority to determine
the rghit in such eases in the first instance
they may exercise it according to any known
remedy that suits the cage, legal or equit-
abe.
No ordinery well eduonted man can doubt
that.independent of the Federal Constitution,
such universal juridical power is inherent
in the States ‘and might by them be as-
signed to their judiciary, as is is in our State
in the.authority to enjoin egainst all acts
contrary to law and prejudiced to the rights
of individuals ; and, therefore, this power
remains to the ‘States unless it is taken
away by direct prohibition or is otherwise
incompatible with the Federal systin.
No one that I know ~f pretends that it
has been directly taken away. Indeed £o
far a8 the Constitution itself goes, it is ex
pressly left to the States and therefore to
the State courts ; for the Constitution aclu-
ally institutes no court but the supreme |
Court ; and it gives £0 it no origipal jurie-
diction except 1m cases where 2 foreign
minister or consul, or a State is a party.
Yor all other cases within the Federal pow-
er, it gives only appellate jurisdction.
And, es there may be no other than
“State courts to try those cases, the appellate
jurisdiction of the Federal Supreme Court
necessarily leaves an original jurisdiction
of the Federal Supreme Court necessarily
leases an original juri diction in them.
True, the Constitution authorizes such
inferior Federal courts as Congress may
think proper to establish , bu the authority
to establish such inferior courls cannet di-
vest this original State jurisdiction; for
Congres3 might never exercige its authority
or it might not assign it to them exclusive-
ly of the State courte. The very frame of
the Constitution, therefore, admits that the
States may have the original jurisdiction
of such cases snbject to the appellate jurs-
diction of the Federal Supreme Court, and
no Federal law has yet forbidden it to them
even if this may be done.
And such a judical system was not at all
strange to the fathers of the Constitution,
andis well known in history. Ii was the
very system of the colonies before our inde
pendanze. Our colonial courts had authori-
ty to try all kinds of cases whether arising
wnder colonisl or under imperial law, and
the only remedy for misjudgement was by
appeal or writ of error to the proper imperi- become the visibla index to the workings of
al courts in England ; and so it was in Ire-
land before the Union, And so it is every-
where with courts and other authorities
that are merely local in their constitution
and junsdietion ; they administer even the
general law of State, but always subject to
the appellate authority of more general
jurisdiction. And this appellate jurisdic-
tion was in general considered sufficient to
preserve the Anglo Saxon cour!s in due sub-
ordination to the royal courts after the Nor-
man conquest ; though certiorars to transfer |
causes before trial was also in use, and no
Norman was bound to abide the judgment
ofa Saxon court to whose jurisdiction he
chose to, object. No doubt a similar prac.
tice can be traced in every country, not
purely despotic, where different State organ-
izations or different people have been united
under one general government. In many
cases the paramount law international law
and yet sectional or State courts may de-
¢ide what 1t is, subject to the appellate
risdiction of treaties or of armies.
With all this present to the minds of the
fauthers of the Consti.ution, it seems to me
that they could not have intended a depart- |
are without giving expression to their inten-
tion, and this they have not done. They
eoem even to express the contrary when
they declare the Constitution and the laws
made under it to be not merely Federal law
but “the supreme law of the land,” and
require all State officers to be sworn to
support it. That mere Federal authority
does not exclude State action is very well
illustrated by this very subject of the militia, |
where the Federal authority to legislate has
never been regarded as preventing actual
8tate legislation. And the danger of con-
flict between Federal and State authorities
is not different in ito character from that
which may arise between different depart-
ments of the same Government, and lead
to results that are quite insoluble. Mutual
trust and respect, and a carefnl adherence
to the Constitution, can alone save ug from
such dfficulties.
It is with very real distress that I find
my mind forced into this conflict with an
act of Congress of such very great impor-
tance in the present juncture of Federal
affairs ; but I cannot help it. Possibly,
and the question is so presented that I can-
not evade it, an argnment from the counsel
of the Government might have saved me
from this, if it is an eror ; and it may yet
roduce a different result on the final hear-
g, which I trust will take place so soon
that no public or privafe injury may arise
from any misjudgment now and here.
Certainly, in this great struggle, we owe |
nothing to the rebels but war, until they
submit, unless it be that we do not let war
so depart from its proper purposes as to
force them to submit to a constitution and
system different from that against which
the
bi other, to minorities and individuals,
that no part of that sacred compact of Un-
son shall become the sport of partisan strug-
les, or be subjected to the anarchy of con-
fictiog moralities, urged on by ambiiious
hopes veiled in the back ground. Our sol-
emn oaths and plighted faith have made
that compact the shield of State constitu-
tions, institutions and peculiarities, and of
their right to their own fiee development,
against all arbitrary and intermeddling ac-
tion of the central Government (# hich in all
free countries represents a party), and I ven-
ture to Lope that that shield will continue
to afford its intended proteciion,
What I have written, I have written un-
der a very deep sense of the responsibility
imposed upon me by my position, and with |
sn easnest desire to be guided only by the
Constitution. Very many will be dissatis-
fied with wy conclusions, but I submit to |

The Coming Strugsle:
The progress of revolutions, a8 traced in
the history of all nations who bave besn zo
unfortunate as to experience their horrors—
i and what nation kas not-——18 a mystery.
| To-day, with all the lessons of the past be-
fore us, we can live and pursus the business
of life, in the mids$ of what the future will
regard as the mightiest revolution the world
| has ever seen, and scarcely notice the heay-
| ings of the volcano 02 which we iroad —
| But there is a time in the mysterious work-
| ings of a velcano when «ll know and all re.
member the eruptiona which are a8 sudden
| and irresistible as death, though few could
trace, through all the years ia whiel it ap-
| parently slept, the cavece which produce
| them. A fiery mouniain, casting forth its
burning element to terrily and destroy, may,
with justice, ba regarded as one of the
| greatest of the wonders which show forth
{
| the power of Nature's God. But the buman
| mind, as tha perfection of God's works, the
| only one of His works which knowsiis Cre-
"ator, is a brighter radiance and a gierter
mystery. For that reagen, the upheaving
| of society, which overturns m a day dynas-
| ties that time had failed to destroy in a cen.
tary, is more incomprehensible than any-
! thing in nature. When the tyrant is crush-
"ed 1a the might of the power with which he
has trifed, when the block and the scaffold
| the human mind, a spectacle is presented
| which none are likely to forget, though, per-
{ haps, none care to trace out the various
, wanderings through which the elements of
sociaty have passed to arrive at such a re-
! sult.
| The history of our own couniry for the
past two years and a-half, 18 a striking illus-
| tration of the various changes thro’ which
the mind of man passes in its progress tow-
| ards that point when all barriers are broken
| down, and the mighty torrent of human pas-
sion sweepsaway, a8 straws upon the whirl-
|
| wind, the shield which tyrants have reared,
| through corrupted laws, to protect them.--
| And the xND wilt be more striking still. As
| vain the hand of a child to check the rush-
| ing avalanche, as the calculations of those
who count upon the submission of man, be-
yond a certain point, to injustice. It is dif-
! ficult to tell just when that time arrives;
but none doubt its existence when it does
come. Men are hurled mto revolutions and
dashed about in the contending elements al-
most whether they wich it or not, almost
without knowing it; they become actors
upon a stage which the fature will drape
with biack or deck with laurel, and do not
| realize the fact that any such events are up-
| on tiem,
A great writer has wisely said: “The
multitude, in all countries, are patient to a
certain point” The masses of the people
never desire revolution ; they naturally re-
coll from the dark and terrible picture of
death and wos which is the necessary con-
| sequence, be the result ever so glorious and
much to be desired. We love to dwell upon
the bright side of the revolution which bro’s
our own Republic into being ; but we can-
not forget the seven terrible years of suffer-
ing and horror during which the eruption
| lasted. Men dislike the shedding of blood
| and the scenes of desolation which mark
| the progress of all civil strife; bat the hour
| comes when all other considerations cease.
When the mind has only the choice cf life
with chains, or death without, and the true
| patriotic heart makes the choice, then, let
the oppressor beware.
Two years ago, when the first step was
| taken in the long programme which was to
| result in the enslavement of the American
| people, how men were startled when, in the
city of Baltimore, a citizen was arrested and
imprisioned without trial ; how the hearts
of true men burned when the first attempt
was made to destroy State ;sovereignty.—
Since then, how many sand glariog have
been the usurpations of the people’srights,
by the people’s servants ; and at each new
act of despotism the mind seemed to sub-
mit more calmly to the chaizs imposed. —
And at last, when elections were carried de-
spite the will of the people, the spint of
liberty seems completely eradicated—the
genius of our Republic to have departed. —
But is such really the indication ? All great
natural results are worked out in silence

| and it is only at the moment of their ac
comphishment that the terible effects attract
he attention of all. The production of clec-
tricity and the motion of clouds is all in si-
lence ; but the hour comes when the thunder-
bolt crashes and all nature bows in the
breath of the storm-king, Who shall re-
sist the lightnings of heaven, and who shall
stand in the might of an outraged people’s
vengeance! There is a point where forbear-
ance ceases, when submission is cowardly,
when neutrality 1s suicidal ; and that point
is now almost upon us. Should the last
pound be laid upon the camel’s back, and
the freemen of America be forced into meas-
ures upon which they now look with horror,
there is no occasion for fear upon the part of
our own old Keystone State ; for it is writ-
ten as plainly as any lesson of God in ma.

Their Purposs:
To us the policy of the Abolition party
80 plainly manifesting their object to be the
entire overthrow of our present system of
government, is nothing new. Our only
hope hay been that they would present to
to the American people some eoxcase for
submitting to their administration—some-
thing to excuse us in the eyes of posterity
for electing to and, continuing in power
men who have only succeeded in damning
themsalves more completely, and disgracing
the nation which gave them birth. We ho-
ped that, although the President had mot
the ability for a great statesman, he might
at least have given proof of his titles to be
called a man. That hope has been disap-
pointed sad with it our last hope of peace
or prosperity for our nation in the present
or of anything to preserve us from the con-
tempt of future generations, But our opin-
ion as to the ultimate designs of those who
eontrol the military power of the govern-
ment has not changed since ths first blow
was struck in this wicked, useless strife.—
We beleived then as we do now, founding
our opinion upon the expressed sentiments
of the leaders of the Abolition party, that
their object was the destruction of the
American Union and *‘slavery with it, the
entire overthrow of the republic as it ex-
isted under the Constitution, and the estab-
lishment of a northern oligarchy, with the
leaders of Abolitionism as 1ts head.
The only credit of which they are worthy
is thas cf consistency ; for, from the firs$
hour of the existence of the Abolition par-
ty it has had but one purpose, which it
pursued with the utmost pertinacity, and
never once swerved from the pelicy first
laid down: For proof as to what that pur-
pose was we know of no one to whom we
could refer as higher au hority than Hor-
ace Greely, Controling as he did a paper
with a circulation alinost unprecedented in
the world, and through in the whole party
of which it was the organ, we know of no
one more competent to declare their purpose
than he. Inthe Tribunas of July 25th 1554
he says: ‘‘ WE CONTEND THAT THE ABOLI-
TION OF SLAVERY IN THR STATES I$ THR
REAL OBJECT OF TB REPUBLICAN PARTY.”
Therd in language to plain tobe misunder-
stood, we have the declaration of this great
leader 83 to the object for which onr peeple
have suffered as few people have even be.
fore suffered,
By the most flattering promises, Demo-
crats have been induced to enter the army,
and suffer, bleed and die, while their famil-
ies suffered scarcely less at home and for
what purpose ? Simply to wrest froma por-
tiow'of our people thier Constatutioanl rights
and reduced them to slavery, while the so-
called slave is turned lovse to pillage and
destroy, Such, the history and acts of
the party that is hurrying us to ruia proves
In all great wars of which history or tra-
dition gives vs any account,a plain object
has been in view by those conducting it and
line of policy calculated to bring it about,
followed consistently until it either succeed-
ed or failed. Ib this the greatest war the
world has ever witnessed, we find an object
declared on one side, while the other pre-
tends to be battliog for a dozzen different
ends. one of the leaders for the ‘Union as
it should be,” another ‘for the Union as
it was,” another for the ‘‘abolition of sla-
very’’ another for the “subjugation of the
South’’ and so on ad infinitum, When
such is the case we are bound to accept
their acts as an index of their object. These
bave tended soley tos centralization of
power, the destruction of State sovereignty
the abolition of ‘slavery” and ths entire
overthrow ef our fr ee institutions as they
existed under the Constitution. The fin-
ances have been so managed as to put all
the money into the hands of Abolition spec
ulators. and to rapidly create a New Eng-
land Aristocracy which is to lord it over
the people when the gavernment has been
subverted.
Their acts prove, and many of their pub-
lic speakers declare that their object is not
the restoraticn of the Union under the Con.
stitution, and it must therefore be the de-
struction of the the Union and the Consti-
tution to-gether ; such were theirjdeclared
purpose years ago, and we do them the
czedit to believe that they have persued it
consistently.
And what shall be said of those who
once were Democrats, who have sold them-
selves to such a puapose for paltry dollars
or been terrified into supporting a war for
purposes that their soul must detest. Like
Judas their money is the price of blood—
the blood of their fellow-men, and of liber-
ty, and their imagided security is but
the pi-Tude to their certain destruction.
Justice will eventually triumph and the
only safety 18 in adhering to the right
though all the powers of darkness are com-
bined against us.

William 1, Seward, a few days ago boas-
ted at Gettysburg that for, forty years he
had been in public life,” Thé condition of
the country attests the truth of the asser-
tion, and we are only astonished at the
tenacity of life of a Government which
could survive for forty years the attack of
such men as he. A quarter of a century
public attention, by his resistance to; the
Constitution of the United States, and by
open violation of oaths with which he had
bound himself in the office. where his fellow
ciuzens had placed him. Since then, his
course has been one unswerving eflort to
overturn the American Government, and by
all indications, he has at last succeeded ;
he connived at John Brown’s raid upon Har-
per’s Ferry and voted once for the destruc-
tion of the Union by peaceable dissolution,
and called down upon hishead a withering
rebuke from Damel Webster, He taught a
“HIGHER LAW” ‘
than the Constitution, and the terrible bat.
tle of Gettysburg is a slight portion of the
resuits of his teachings, A celebrated Eng-
lish writer of the cighteenth century says
that ‘The ruin or prosperity of a State da-
pends 80 mach upon the administration of
its government, that, to be acquainted with
the merit of 8 ministry, we need only ob-
serve the condition of its people. Ii we
see them obedient to the laws, prosperous
in their industry, upited at home, and res-
pected abroad, we may ressonably presume
that their affairs are conducted by men eof
abilities and virtue, If, on the contrary,
we see an universal spirit of distrust and
dissatisfaction, a rapid decay of trade, dis-
gengion in all parts of the empire, and a to-
tal loss of respect in the eyes of foreign
powers, we may pronounce without hesita-
tion, that the government of that country
18 weak, distracted and corrupt.” William
H. Seward, is,in reality. at the head of the
government, and the condition of the coun-
try, so fearfully well known to all, is the
significant comment.

of the Fast, the Czar of Russia, came oft
in New York on the 5th inst. It was at,
tended by old Bhoddy and young Shoddy,
Mrs. Shoddy and Miss Shoddy, by old
Greenback and his cormorant crew of greasy
Greenbacks, by Mr. Contractor, Mrs. Cor-
tractor and all the little Contractors. Broad:
cloths, silks, diamonds, spangles, easy vir-
tue and everything else of the kind, were
there, and oysters by the cart-load and wine
by the barrel, were hid in the capacious
maws of the trucklers to tyranny. Quite
a number of the Shoddies, Greenbacks and
Contractors of both_sexes, got drunk, ang,
we suppose, had a “lively time of it,” as
reports say the ‘great ten. of the nation’
had, over the graves of cur brothers at Get-
tysburg, [Ibe ball was a big thing, po
doubt, big for the American serfs who were
toadying to the tools of the Russian tyrant,
—big for the contemptible beings that begg-
ed a notice from the representatives of the
eastern despotism. But it is ‘becoming

This thing will go on until the white la-

all working men, white or black, must be
excluded from the polls. Just so slavery
was made the entering wedge to split the

They were hard for robbers and charletans

ogo this same Seward began to atfract about a
: Joscphine’s Ring.
Eugenie’s father, daring his service with
he French army, bad selected Paris as his
home ; and there, too, resided his. brother,
who left Spain with the ex-King, Charles
IV, and his family. Among the latter was
a girl of three years of age, (the circum-
stances occurred in 1809) of the name of
dens of the Tuileries, under the supervision
of her nurse. Oa one occasion, a little boy,
Jou: old, made her a present of a
plain gold ring, and neither of her narses
was aware of the fuct. As the boy was a
stranger; and was not seen again in - the.
arden, no inquiries were made as to the
ownership of the ring, and the little Span-
ish countess kept it as a valuable plaything.
This ring was the betrothal ring of Joseph-
phine, which little Louis Napolean, the son
‘of that Hortense whom Napoleon loved so
dearly, had taken off his nncle’s finger un-
uoticed. Napoleon soca after marohed off
to fight the Austrians, and the ring was
forgotten ; - but it’ was an evil omen for
Josephine, who, a year later, had to make
way for a daughter of the Hapsburg. Lit-
tle Maria Montijo felt an inexplicable at-
tachment for this ring, on which the name
Josephine was engraved ; she took care of
it while a child, when she grew up placed
it among her most valued ornaments.
She bad no idea to whom it belonged, or
that it was the Emperors nephew who had
given it to her. When she attained the
age of sixteen, she was married to ber un-
cle, the Duke of Pensranda, and French
Colonel of artillery, in order to unite the
two branches of the German family, and
thus becoms the mother of Eungenie, who
was born on May 5th, 1826. I: was anoth-
er remarkable coincidence that May 5th
was the anniversery of Napoleon’s death—
fue most sacred day of the Bonaparte fami-
y- 1
Eugenie’s mother had tha date, May 5th,
engraved on Josephine’s ring, in memory of
her daughter’s birth, and afterwards gave
it to her. And it is another remarkable
circumstance, that Eugenie, when a child,
visited her relations, the Kirpatricks, in
London ; and here Prince Napoleon, who
bad just arrived from Italy as a Carbonaro,
formed the asquaintance of the little Moati-
jo. Ie saw tho ring among her ornaments,
noticed the inscription, and the date May
tbe Sth explained to him, and he now knew
that Napoleons lost ring was in the posses-
gion of the Countess Eugenie de Montijo.
From this day the young fatalistic heir of
Napoleon 1., regarded the little Countess
Montijo Teba as attached to his house by
a higher inspiration, and this came to pass
twenty years later,
Eugenie, at that time had no idea of all
this; indeed, it was not until a later date,
when the mother learned the importance of
the ring, and the fatulism which Louis Na-
poleon attached to it, that the Montijo fami-
ly formed their plan. The old traditional
marriage policy of the family made ber re-
solve that Eugenie must form an alliance
with the Bonapartesso soon as a wish to
that effect was really entertained by the
other side. For the present, it was merely
a question of marrying a pretender; bat
the pretender iight have a futvre, and the
| ambition of Montijo’s wight aid in advan-
p cing it. This is the principal reason why
80 lovely and rich a girl as Eugenie attain-
ed the age of twenty-six, which is doubly
dangerous for a Spanish woman, without
being murried. She was chosen to fulfil a
“destiny,” and in 1848, the family were
doubly ambitious to fulfil it, because Napo-
leon had in the meanwhile obtained su-
preme power in France. Even before this
period the predestined couple had met
at watering places, and calumny began to
adhere to Mugenie, because it was deemed
impossible that a Spanish girl should have
attained such a ripe age without some gal-
lantry. Hence tempters and speculators
swarmed about her. But the fools did not
know Eugenie, who was a true Montijo;
they did not suspect why this glorious wo-
man allowed the freshness of youth to fade
without arranging one of tho offers daily
made to her.
Eugenie attracted Napoleon by her
charms, but not for the sake of being loved
by him, so much es to satisfy the ambition
of the Montijo’s; she promised him her
band ; but he first became a real power in
France—Emperor. Still she labored zeal-
ously in order to attain this object. She
agitated ; gained men, who admired her,
over to the Napoleonic cause; and under
the mask of an energetic woman, made all
the preparation for the coup d’ elat with the
chief leaders. On that December night
when it was carried out, she sat with Na-
poleon at the instrument. Hence, she
worked with her own hands in restoring the
Napoleonic dynasty, and Napoleon never
for a moment overlooked the fact. In the
case of any eventualities he appointed her
regent: for her presence of mind, political
foresight, which were eminently displayed
doring the Italian campaign. Io allows
her to preside at the council of State, for no
one understands as well as she does Napo-
leons inmost thought, or ean judge so well
the consequence of events. Thers is some-
thing prophetic about her ; and. ths Kmpe-
ror regards her as a portion of his fate.
She ie the head of the clerical and legiti-
mate tendencies in the Napoleonistic family,
just as Prince Napoleon is the head of the
revolutionary ideas.
Tre change of name resorted to by the
Abolitionists and bogus Union savers, re-
minds us of the story of a married couple
who had a baby named Moses. Some years
after, when they had determined to
baptize him, not liking the name, they con-
cluded to rename hin Robert. But there
was no preacher in that section, and they
finally thought they would baptize the boy
themselves, In ducking him into the water
they sang out, «Go in Moses, and come out
Bob.” So with the Republican party.
