' A Failire. The great reformer
who set up in business at Washington
on (bo 4th of March, failed in his first
project to allow ,Mr. A. T. Stewart,
of New York, importer and dry goods
jobber, to make ten million dollar per
year out or his bocretaryship, by re
pealing an act to prevent fraud. Loil
Congressmen did not see things In the

did.
UKCONDITIOMAt SURRENDER. Both
Grant and Stewart were eomnclled to
eurrender after the first fire in the
sate engagement with the loyalists at
"Washington. The New York Herald,

At DiRTr Work. The New York
Chrittian Advocate, the leading oracle
of tho Northern Methodisla, has been
engaged for somo time in justifying
bankrupt. A tbi journal Is the
organ of th church stealers, it course
is not to be wondered at ; because, if
it is right to (teal a bouse of worship,
to which th thieve never cob tributed
a dollar, it is right to cheat your cred
i tort out of their just due. Thitreli
gious newspaper ayi! "The honest
" bankrupt who surrender all bit
' property for th benefit of hi credit-
" or la under no obligation to further
" look after hi indebtedness." That
may be Mcthodislic theology, but it s
very bad moruls and, to our view,
commerciul honesty that needs recon
structing much more then the Southern
States. Tho writer mutt be a visitor
of Allen's dance house.
Change or Tim,-Gen. Grant,
whon interfering with other pooplo's
business, is rather more military ihan
when attending to hi own. While
meddling with some pardons granted
by President Johnson, he ordered

fill offices. How many orders will be

offered '.hem just now to practice what
they preach negro equality. Try a
negro for postmaster; and if it works
well, send to Cresswoll for a cargo,
out of which can be manufactured a
burgess, town councilman, school di
rectors, etc. Ploaso try it, and quit
acting the hypocrite.
Grant' Secretary of the Treasury
offered to give to tbe poor of New
York five million dollar annually
while in office, if Congress would re
peal a certain act. Had the act been
ropoaled he might have done this
thing with propriety, as he could hove
made ten million. It is an easy
matter to pay five dollars, when you
can cheat your neighbor out of ten.

their opinion, the question of tho suiil
amendment should pot. now he notod
upon by tho legislature, but sh field bo
siihtuilteil to the people in order thai
their desire 'npon tho Subject mny bo
known slid their instructions obeyed.
We will not enter into a discussion
of tho propriety of the amendment
itself, but waving that, will confine
ourselves to what, in our opinion, is
ol inuniioiy niqro itnportanoe tlie
right of tho people t) delertniue for
themselves who shall, and who shall
not, vote.
That governments derive their lust
powers from the content of the gov
ornod, is s maxim as old as our insti
tutions, and tho violation of tho prin
ciple embodied in it was, moro than
any other, the causo of tho lievolution
and the establishment of our independ
ence. It is as true to-day us it was in
177C, that the peonio ore- to be con
sulted when any of their rights or
privileges are about to be affected or
taken trom them.
Sovereignty is in tbo people; not in
the sense in which this assertion is
ollon lightly mado, but in that sub
stantial and important sense which
makes it the very basis of our system
of government. Our own constitution
explicitly provides in the second sec
tion ot the declaration of rights, "thai
nil power is inherent in tho people."
It was well said by Judge Wilson in
the convention held in this State to
ratify th Federal Constitution, "that
the supreme, absolute and uncontrollu
ble power is in the people before they
make a constitution, and remains in
tbem after il is made. To control the
power and conduct of the legislature
by an overruling constitution was an
improvement iu the science and prac
tice of government reserved to the
American blutes. ben they have
mado a State constitution, tbey bare
bestowed on the government crested
by it a certain portion of their power;
but the fuo-simple of their power re
mains in themselves. It residet in
the people as the fountain of govern
ment; th peoplo have not the peo
ple meant not and tba people ought
not to part with it to any govern
ment whatsoever. In their hands il
remain seeare. They can delegate it
in such proportions, to such bodies, on
such terms, and nnder such limitations
as they t'.iink proper.
'This great power is not vested in
the State, nor in the United States.
Ncithor s legislature nora convention
can possess it. Perhaps some politi
cian, who ha not considered with
sufficient accuracy our political sys
tems, would answer that, in onr gov
ernments, tho supremo power was
vested in the constitutions. This
opinion approaches a step nearer to
the truth, bul does not reach it. The
truth is, thut in our governments, tho
supreme, absolute, and ancontrollablo
povor rrmiiiM in the peoplo. A our
constitutions are superior to our legis
latures, so the peoplo are superior to
our constitutions. Indeed, tho stipe,
riority in this last instance, is much
greater, for the people possess over
our constitution control in act, as i tho peoplo of the Sla'.ca are poscssed
well us right." ' (of all powor over the rule of suffrage,
Under our system the work of a Hoth recognir.e the right of the peo
convention specially delegated to flirm ! pie( and tho Legislators would be
a constitution is inoperative nntil it is
passod upon by the peoplo, and receive
from their hands its vitality. Tho
Const i lotion ol the United Blutes and
that of our own State both passed the
ordeal of tbe people and became opera
tive only under their approval. The
tendency of publio opinion Is more
and more in this direction, for of the
constitution adopted fti the United
Suttee, upwards of eighty have thus
been submitted and approved.
liuving thus seon that the consent
of the people Is a matter ol theory, of
right and of practice, wo now conie to
consider the application of these prin
ciples to tho question before ns.
The proposition contained in the
amendment is a fundamental one. By
this we mean that It was one of those
vital and important right that enter
ed dwcply into tho compromises of the
Constitution, and thai rmtrrr ocer if
M'M gicen neither to the Federal nor the
S'ate government, but that the right to
declare who ahould exercise the power
of election in tho Slate was reserved
tp the peoplo and remain with them.
Judge Wilson, before referred to, in
commenting upon the character of this
right, aay :
"All aatboritv. ef every hind, U eWeed1 iy ns

The lawa, therer.ire, which eilelih.b the right af

And. indeed, it ia ae important to rrrnlale in a
republic, io what manner, by whom.tn whom, and

We have no powerover this question.
It belongs to the people, although a
technical reading ol tho Federal Con
stilulion on the subject ol amoiidment
seems to indicate that we have the
power that really belong to the peo

this, ;

its source.

pel'lf. IS not cinten lmeit, it is ifrndilio
A fin the! WMiai.lemtii.nol the struct
ure of our government sml ol lhe pow-01-
gmnled by th people leads us to
the same t'i'.i"lusi'in.
1 ho IC..'!iitt,rs of th Stale Is
limited and controlled by the previs
ions of th Mnto constitution.' J Its
acts in violation thereof aro void. As
an indepe iidunl body,-every attempt
on its putt to intorfura with the right
of auftniK,' tir m change th rulo
thereof, is or no effect. Il may regis,
lor tho publio will, bul it can never
act with power upon a auhj ict beyond
it control. The Constitution of the
United State is s purt of the consti
tution of, Pennsylvania,, and lue con
stitution of Pennsylvania is a part ol
tho Constitution of the United titles.
Each is supreme within its sphere.
The government of the United Stales
is on i of enumerated power ; all pow
ers not granted to il "are reserved to
tho States and the peOplo." We msy
for the purpose of this report consider
it to oe-etipreine in -its -sontrol -of
doubtful and concurrent powers, yet
beyond those wide fie'dsand outside
of the rango of it authority, is found
the control of this important subject.
It is reserved to the Slates, or the
people, it is a part of the State con
stilulion, and in that reepect the pro
visions thereof are the supreme law.
Being neither an enumerated, a con
current, nor a doubtful power under
tho Federal constitution its control
manifestly is in tho State or the peo
plo. This amendment would be futile
if tho subject of it wero not beyond
the pale of Federal authority. No
ono will argue that its control is in
the State legislature, if the provisions
of the Federal Constitution on the
subject of amendment are not to be
considered, but we have already seen
that it is in do mauner controlled by
Federal authority. If it is, then the
State Constitution, tho eopreme law
upon this subject, is made inferior to
tho power of the State legislature, and
they may by amendment override it.
No such violation of the rights of the
people was ever contemplated by the
framers of our constitutions, but tbe
plain and clear interpretation of tbe
whole subject is, that this right is one
that belongs to tbe pople and oan
only be affected cr controlled by
them. . e
If by the votecf the legislatures of
three lonrth or the State tins amend
ment be ratified, and by the action of
our Slate it is rejected, then our con
trol of suffrsge in Pennsylvania is ta
ken from us by the rotes of the legis
latures of Florida and Oregon. Surely
such a result as this wss never con
templated by tho framr of the
government. ''
' If il had ever been supposed to exist,
the Federal Constitution would never
have been ratified.
For these reasons we conclude that
sovereignty upon this subject is re
served to the people, thai the power
of amendment in this form without
their consent does not exist, but that
it does exist a to all thoso matters in
which power and right are vested
by the Stale or Federal Constitution
in the State or Federal Government.
The people of the State established
this rule and it is their right to be
consulted in its change. We cannot
err in going to them for Instructions.
The Legislature was elected upon
other issues ; one political party In the
lute election maintained thai "The
question of sutTrago in all tho loyal
States properly belongs to the people
of those Stales," whilst tho position
of the other has uniformly been, thut
rocreant to Us duty as well as to the
dictates of common honesty to recant
tho express pledges involved in it
election.
The matter for us to determine is
not, shall this amendment be ratified,
but it is the far graver question, shall
tho people bo deprived of their right
to pass upon the question of il ratifi
cation or rejection.'4 W believe that
they should not, and therefore report
the following resolutions for adoption
by tho Senate ! ' '
Krvolred, That the JudiHery Cnmmtttee of the
Senate be and they are hereby inrtrueted In pre
pare end forthwith report ta tbe Senate a bill lor

chunk shortly alter th service com
menced, this morning. Th church
wss fillod to overflowing, many par
son being compelled to surd in the
aisles. The Preeident, followed by his
family, walked up tbe centre aiaU
towards the pew set apsrt for tho
President of the United Slate. When
he reached it, however, be found It
otenpied. Tho pernor. In it, inlead
of attempting to make way for the
Preeident, looking " at him, in
curious amiiteiiieiit. Grant glanced
around-the tAuuh, In-search of a
vacant pew, but nobody seemed wii

him to ono. Finally the President
turned around to hi wife, who, with
hereislersand the ohildren, was stand
ing hsliind him, engaged like himself
In looking lor a eeau luiaeeeoiee
be a signal for retreat. Mrs. Giant,
who was in the rear, immediately
turned and walked down the sisle to
wards the door, followed by the whole
party. This seemed to break th spoil
which had unaccountably for the mo
ment seized upon the congregation.
The preacher, who had manifestly
observed the whole movement from
tho pulpit, suspended his discourse for
a minute. Some of ibe officers of the
church near tho ultar.recoveiing from
tho paralyzing effect, of Grant's pres
ence, rushod down the aisle after the
distinguished party, with a view of
arresting their progress. Others set
about providing chairs io fron. of ibe
altar. The excited individual who
rushed wildly down the aisle succeed
ed in overtaking Mrs Grant and whis
pered something in her ear. She did
not stop, however, but kept straight
on toward the door, followed by the
wholo party. When '.bey had retired,
tbo preacher, tbe lXov. Dr. Uainill,
stopped hi discourse for the purpose
of saying that he regretted very much
tbe unfortunate occurrence which tbey
bad lust witnessed. There was a pew
provided for th President of the Uni

it would be reserved for him, whether
he attendod the church or not. ..Tbi
