TUESDAY, AUGUST 14, 1860
Adoptio . rt of the Constitution.
ram= ARTICLE.
We have already sketched the history of the
struggle in three of the four principal States..
The trial which the Constitution underwent
in Massachusetts Is entitled to equal attention.
There, was not a State in the Union—at
least, none beyond the bounds of New Eng
land—disposed to resist so stoutly the adop
tion of a National Government that would
limit and subordinate the powers of tbe State.
Compared with the Intense democracy of Mas
sachusetts, the colokty of Virginia was a rank
aristocracy. Every 'town was complete in its
municipal organization ; they were all of equal
rank in the governmental policy ; and the most
'absolute equality washeld . by all the citizens;
the "Town Meeting" directly expressed the
popular will, and every man was fairly repre
sented in tho General Court or Assembly, tilie•
representation being irklao ratio of the num
bers; the representatives wore chosen annu
ally by the freemen; and were subject, pesides,
to the instructions of their constituency—a
representative government but a single re
move from the purest 'form of a democracy,
or the direct administration of their 'affairs by
the people in their primlYaseemblies. To
tit the people for self-government, so nearly
absolute, education was not only provided,
but enforced upon all the inhabitants as early
as 1671; justice was breught to every man's
door, and promptly and cheaply dispensed. In
the infancy of the province the English rule of
primogeniture was abolished, and the distri
bution of estates under the Intestate laws *hs
so nearly equal that an aristocracy of wealth
was prevented. Equality, political, social, and,
economical, was provided fok and secured, as
nearly as human laws can effect. All the
necessities of the community wore met with
the least possible surrender of individual
rights, and no people under the sun were more
alive to their political and personal liberty;
none more jealous of power, or more obstinate
in resistance to its possible encroachments.
Their religious intolerance was a simple
and direct democratic despotism—democratic
to desperation, their churches were all Inde
pendent—despotic, they guarded the faith and
practice of the Gospel with a vigilando so fear
ful and ferocious that banishment or death was
the penalty for heresy, and they ordained, In
1654, that no printingbe done and no press es
tablished, but with the permission of legal
approvers, and this, too, about he time that
the profits of the fisheries were granted to
found a free school!
Very far from " Federalists" were these
people, as that term was popularly' understood
at the time when the word filet came into
common use, or for a century before it. Vir
ginia and South Carolina disliked the Union
as much for the fiat equality of political power
which New England would bring into it, at
for any other reason. The restrictive provisions
of the old Confederacy, which the now Con
stitution was designed to remove, in order to
effect an efficient organization of the Re
public, came from hfassachusetts. In all their
smaller combinations among themselves for
external defence and internal order, the New
England States had never entrusted thnii:'
commissioners with any power beyond that of
deliberating, and proposing measures; OW-
Colonial Assemblies and the Town Meetings'
always reserving the right of definitive action..
The new Constitution had, therefore, ' a
rough road to travel through the Yankee (kn
ventions. In Massachusetts the most resolute
defenders of State rights were Joan HANCOCK,
SAMUEL ADAMS, and ELDRIDGE GERRY—they
wore the "Republicans," par excellence, of
that day of struggle. They and their party
were, however, well counterpoised by tho
merchants, and the great body of the lawyers,
and of the clergy, who bad a shrewd guess at
the benefits, and a generous notion of the ge
neral blessings of Union. These were led by
such mon as Ltscoau, Bnooffs, BOWDOIN,
CABOT, HIGGINSON, PARSONS, SEDGWICK, Cons,
Poem Ants, RUFUS KING, and NATHANIEL
GORHAM.
FRANCIS DANA, ELIIIIIDOE GERRY, CALEB
STRONG, NATHANIEL GOntrAW, and Rt , 11.78
wore appointed delegates to the Na
tional Convention of 1787. ,DANA did not
take his seat, and Gunny refused his assent to
the instrument, declaring that (chi) Should
consider himself a traitor to his country, if ho
did not oppose the system there, and also
when he left the Convention."
To secure the rejection of the Constitution,
it was proposed in tho Legislature that it
should be considered in the Town Meetings.
When the members were chosen to the State
Convention, it was believed that two-thirds of
them were hostile to adoption.
c' It wore long to tell, and tedious to re
late" the measures and devices of the oppo
nents in the Convention which assembled in
Boston on the 9th of January, 1788 ; but New
England democracy displayed itself so in
tensely that some of its points cannot well be
suppressed. SAMUEL ADAMS assailed the re
presentative term of two years as utterly re
pugnant to the proper control, and the duo se
curity of the people. Annual elections had
been the practice of the State since its first
settlement—they were the only safeguards of
liberty. The stress laid upon such a matter as
this by such a man as SAMUEL ADAMS, is, per
haps, correctly explained in a letter written
at the time by RUFUS KING to JAMES 3fAUISON.
Re said: "An apprehension that the liberties
of the people are in danger, and a diatrust of
men of property or education, have a more
powerful effect on the minds of our oppo
nents than any specific objections against
the Constitution." SEDGIVICH replied effec
tively, but a part of the speech of FISHER
AMES, who followed and supported him, is
especially well worth reading. Alter striking
the distinction between a pure and a repre
sentative democracy, and defining the differ
ent objects of national and State legislation,
he said : cc Biennial elections appear to me
an essential security of liberty. These aro
my reasons : Faction and enthusiasm aro the
instruments by which popular governments
are destroyed. We need not talk of the power
of an aristocracy. The people, when they
lose their liberties, are cheated out of them.
They nourish factions in their bosoms, which
will subsist so long as amusing their honest
credulity shall be the means of acquiring
power. A democracy Is a volcano, which
conceals the fiery materials of its own
destruction. These will produce an erup
tion, and carry desolation in their way.
The people always mean right, and it
time be allowed for reflection and informa
tion, they will do right. I would not have the
first wish, the momentary impulse of the pub
lie mind, become law ; for it is not always the
sense of the people, with whom I admit all
power resides. On groat questions, we first
hear the loud clamors of passion, artifice, and
faction. I consider biennial elections a secu
rity that the sober, second•thought of the peo
ple shall be law. There is a calm review of
public transactions, which is made by the
citizens, who have families and children, the
pledges of their fidelity. To provide for po
pular liberty, we must take care that measures
Shall not be adopted witiont due deliberation.
The member chosen for two years will feel
some independence in his seat. Tho factions
of the day will expire before the end of his
term."
The constitution of the Senate received a
thorough and very able examination. In tho
speeches of Anus, KING, and Belmont, this
feature of our Federal system was so pro
foundly and conclusively unfolded, that they
might claim the merit of giving it an authori
tative exposition, it the Federalist had not
anticipated and, probably, instructed thorn.
The light afforded to the best minds in the
country by that great commentary upon the
Constitution, and the service rendered by tt
to people of that day and all future times of the
republic, Is quite beyond estimation. it was
not too much to say of it, that "the extraordi
nary forecast with which its luminous discus
sions antioipated . the operation of the new in
stitutions, and its profound elucidation of their
principles, gave birth to American constitu
tional law, which was thus at once placed
above the field of arbitrary construction, and
in the domain of .legal truth. Those papers
made it a science ; and, so long as the Con
stitution shall exist, they will continuo to be
resorted to as the most important source of
coutemporaneons interpretation which the
annals of the country afford." —Curtis' Hist.
Cons!.
GITIZOT goes farther. He does not limit the
teachings and the service of the Federalist
to the time and country which gave it birth.
Speaking of HAMILTON—who is understood to
have written sixty five of its eighty-five num
tiers, distingnisluble by the characteristics of
his authorship from those of MADISON and JAY,
who wrote the other twenty—he says c; HAM
MON must be classed among the men who
have best known the vital principles and fun
damental conditions of a government; not of
a government such as this, ( the Frene,h,) but
.of a government worthy of Hi Mission and of
its natio,. There is not in the Constitution of
the United States an element of order, of force,
of duration, which' he has not powerfully con
tributed to introduce into it, and to eause to
predominate."
But, notwithstanding the precedence of the
Federalist in point of timo, and its absolute
superiority over the attainments of its great•
est disciples, it 11111 s !, bemnderstopd thatAmss,
KING, CAner, 5500 wicx, and Bowomse; by their
own proper force overruled the great majority
of the Massachusetts Convention, and carried
the final decision of the adoption in

Senate, AXES Tim State Governments

cy to their preservation. The Senate repre
sents the sovereignty of the States; in the
other Reese, individuals are represented.
They are in the :quality of ambassadors of the
States. If they were chosen by the people at
large, they Would represent not tho legisla
tures,' but the people. This would totally
obliterate the federal features of the Constitu
tion. A consolidation of the States would en
sue, for who would defend them against the
encroachments of the Federal Government
Tho State Governments nro the safeguard and
ornament of the Constitution. They will
protract the period of our liberties. They
will afford a shelter against the abuse of power,
and will be the natural avengers of our violated
rights."
Kota' defended the long term of service
given to the Senators, by strongly insisting
upon the check that there is in the right of in
struction held by the legislatures over their
appointees. He held that this power in effect
made the Senators mere tenants at will of their
offices, or kept them in close obedience to
their principals, notwithstanding their election
for a term of six years.
All the powers conferred on Congress wore
thoroughly discussed—on that of taxation, in
effect exclusive as to foreign commerce, the
protection to domestic manufactures which it
provided for was held forth as ono of the great
duties, and the most important benefits of a
National Government. The opposition depre
cated the power of taxation as destroying the
sovereignty of the States. Samovicx an
swered that all the sources of revenue ought to
bo in the hands of the government who were to
protect us; and that the powers to effect this had
always necessarily been unlimited. Congress
Would exert those easiest to the people—an
itepost first, then an excise ; last, a direct tax,
as being difficult and uncertain. 1301TDOIN, at
,the close of a masterly review of the whole in
atrument—the powers included and excluded,
its checks and. balances—said: 4 , The whole
Censtitution is a declaration of rights, which,
primarily and principally, respect the general
government to be formed by it. The rights
of particular States, or private citizens, not
being the object or subject of tho Constitu
tion, they aro only incidentally mentioned.
In considering tho Constitution, wo roust con
sider it, in all its parts, upon those general prin
ciples which operate through the whole of it,
and are equivalent to the most extensive bill
of rights that can be formed."
At the close of the general debate, HAN
COCK surrendtred 1113 objections. He urged
1 the adoption, with certain amendments which
ho submitted. SAMUEL ADAMS moved the ac
ceptance of the amendments, and, with this
condition, argued for the adoption as the only
means of preserving the Union. One of these
amendments declared that all powers not er
pressly delegated to Congress aro reserved to
the States; a second restricted the control of
Congress over the elections of its members ;
a third restrained the power of direct taxa
tion to tho supply of revenue only after the
proceeds of impost and excise should fail to
bo sufficient; and a fourth required an indict
ment before trial, and juries in civil cases be.
tween citizens of different States, at the re
quest of either party.
The first of these proposed arnendnients is
obviously one of those impracticable caution
ary suggestions which spring from the bewil
derment of fear. Tho ninth and tenth amend
ments to the Constitution, adopted by the
States in 1791, admit and allow implied
powers in the Constitution, from the sheer
necessity of the case.' Moreover, these two
amendments aro themselves instances of su
perabundant caution, for they do not, in Met,
change or limit the original instrument. They
are only the necessary construction of
its provisions, put out of the reach oh
debate, and ready for quotation. The
second of Ilmteoex's series could get no
countenance from a jurist or statesman. It
does not appear among the amendments
adopted by the States. The third deserved
and shared the same fate. The fourth was
better warranted. It can be traced into the
fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh amendments
which were afterwards added to the Constitu
tion.
The offer of these amendments as a condition
of ratification was, after an able debate,
changed into a question of ratification with a
recommendation of the proposed amendments.
Haxeoca exerted himself to erect a harmony
on this basis, and it was carried-187 in tho
affirmative and 168 in the negative; majority,
19. Massachusetts was the sixth State that
retitled. Her influence was looked to with
much apprehension. That influence was in
effect rather equivocal. Its effect was rather
against than favorable to the adoption by New
York and Virginia, whose conventions were
hold four weeks later. The amendments in
sisted upon confirmed the resistance of the
opponents in all of the remaining seven States
which wore yet to decide the question.
GOLD ON THE TEIIVANTEPEO
brig Golden Lead, Captain Johnhon, arrivej at
New York on the 3d instant, from Minatitlan, Te
huantepec, the 4•h of July. The gold-hunting ex
pedition which left blinatillan, during the month
of May, returned Juno 27. They went to the head
waters of the Coatzacoalcos, in the vicinity of
Santa Maria Chinalapa, and report having found
gold paying eighteenth to the pan, but were obliged
to return for provisions. The gold brought down
was ten carat coarse gold, intermixed with black
sand, taken from the surface. The expedition re
turned to the mines en the let ult., with six months'
provisions. Several French residents and Mexicans
have left for the mines. Another expedition is be
ing fitted out by the principal merchants of Mina
titian to explore further into the interior. The
mines aro acceohiblo either by land or water; die.
tame about one hundred and sixty miles from Mi
natitlan. Crows are deserting meals ovary day,
with the Intention of going to the mines.
Tan Nantucket buittirer says that Mr. S. C.
Bishop proposes to connect the South Shoal light
ship; with Sancoty Head light by a submarine
cable, for the purpose of reporting vessels passing
the. light-ship, and for anticipating foreign
steamers' news; the whole plan (which was one of
the original ideas connected with his porfeeting
the conneetion between Nantucket, Vineyard, and
the main -land) Is perfectly a practicable one, and
we learn from experienced pilots and others con
versant with this matter, that there is not RS much
difficulty in making this connection as thorn was in
crossing Muskeget Channel.. The whole expense
of the connection with Mr. Bishop's line at Nan
tucket will not exceed $lO,OOO, and can bo done
this fall, so that before winter sets in all con he
finished, and Nantucket Shoal light-boat he had
in direct telegraphic connection with Boston.
Letter from Long Branch, N. J.
CorreaDondenoe of The prem.'
Lona Bnancn, , Aug. 11, 1860.
I left Freehold yesterday iliorning at 10,
and arrived at this place at 2 P. M., after an ex
ceedingly tiresome ride of four hours.' Was it not
that the monotony of the ride is relieved by a very
prettilydiveretfied country, the plessuree of the sea
shore would coarsely compensate for the ineonve-,
alarm attending that defunct Institution, yolept
stages. There is very little enterprise among the
people of this " goodlie" State. Freehold and
Long Branch should hove bad a railway connec
tion years age, but the injurious policy pursued by
the Camden and Amboy road hoe precluded the
possibility of the accomplishment of this great de
sideratum. New Jersey hoc Fold herself, body and
soul, to this corporation, and she ti now reaping
the benefit of the infamous bargain.
Nearly all the holds are full, net inconveniently
en, however, and the arrivals, though greatly re
duced from what they wore a few weeks ago, stilt
continue. There are fourteen principal betide, ca
pable of acoonimodating from five hundred to one
hundred and fifty perms each, besides an endless
ilnumber of manor houses. The surrounding
country presents a sameness of appearance whioh
'wearlea rather than relieves tbo eight; Inr
ther in towards the interior it is.inote pleturesqbe,
but in no place do we meet such grand, wild
emery as the old Keystone presents: To a person

wishes to avoid the hops, balls, and dissipation{ o 1
Cape May, Atlantic City, or Newport, this le the

for you will find it, in that casa, one of the dollesi
places in Christendom.
There is very little oxeliement in the pollticsl
world, though as soon as the hot weather is over the
campaign will be opened in earnest. As lam on
politica, you Would i • no doiabt; like to know the
feeling of the pride hero. %yell, I will tell you, I
passed ono week in Freehold, and with one or two
exceptions found every ono expressing a determine•
tion to vote for Douglas and Johnson. The taverns
and atoms afford' a convenient plea° for idlers to
pass their evenings, and it was here that I die
•covered a unanimity of sentiment well worthy of
the good cause in which it Is engaged, and those
who protest] to know the political complexion of the
State feel well secured that New Jersey will never
apostatise (if you will allow the word) herself to
either Republicanism, or •the sootional Nathan of
which Brockinridge and that vagabond Jo Lane
aro the hoed.
The new railway between this place and New
York oily ft doing a flourishing business, and mo
nopolises all the travel from the Northeast. Ned
the Freehold and Jarnesburg Beltway extended
their road here t hey still would have maintained
this travel, which is now irrevocably lost to them ;
and I am not certain but that a large proportion of
the Philadelphia and Sodbern passengers will
prefer the new road—though the fire is a little
more, an,ftho time consumed in getting hare rather
longer—to a tedious journey of twenty miles by
stages, drawn by just such looking animals as used
to ho sold at five dollars a head at the old horse
market at Bosh 11111.
The indioations discovered last Tuesday of the
supposed Murder still remain a profound mystery.
Tho Diatriot Attorney for the county arrived here
Wednesday morning in company with the coroner,
and iramediatelyoommenoed an investigation. So
far, the results have not been very satisfactory,
but the knowing ones—there are always such people
ready for every emergency —!assert that suspicion
points towards certain parties, rim., Jto.
The friends of the straight Douglas ticket, in
Monmouth county, announce their Intention of issu
ing a campaign paper during the coming contest.
It will oppose the f' Union," or Fasten" ticket,
;and rapport what it believes to be regular De
mooratio principles, and advocate the election of
regular Democratic candidates." Tho Democrat
" disagrees with them entirely in regard to the
policy they are pursuing, believing it calculated to
defeat the object they profess to be laboring to se
mire ;" but as members of the great Derno•
matte family," graciously allows the Straights two
of three of its columns for " artiolos favorable to
our cause." I have heard the honesty of the De
mocrat, in its warm support of Douglas, ques
tioned, but believed the rumor false till now. It
is also said, but I cannot vouch for its truth, that
the editor of the Democrat will himself contribute
an occasional article to this campaign planer."
Let us keep 'an eye on these fellows; they are
pia" ing a deep game. MALTA,
Letter from Delaware.
Correspondence of The Press.]
Witstztrarox, Del., August 11, 1860
Oa Wednesday last the State Convention, called
by the Executive Committee of the Democratic
party, nom:Oiled in Dover. Tho regular De
mocracy made no effort to send delegates, and in con
sequence it was merely a Breekinridge meeting. I
believe there was but ono Douglas man in the Con
vention, and be was pat on the delegate ticket by the
Diaunionlsts themselves, for the purpose of giving
a tinge of nationality to their proceedings. The
Committee on Buaineaa introduced straight-out
Breckinridge and Lane resoluthea. After they
were rend, Mr. Eli Saulabury, a brother of the
Senator cf that name, introduced a series favoring
a fusion electoral ticket. Ile did so In eccordanoe
with the Instruetions of the Convention by whose
authority he wan a delegate, as well as (es be said)
n accordance with his own feelings and convic
tions Ile made an excellent speech in support of
his remln lions. Ile denounced the Straight-outers
as factionists and rule-or-ruin men. Mr. Thomas
F. Bayard replied to them, and repudiated
the chdrge of factioniste, and made a very
extraordinary speech Ile was much excited.
Mr. Saulsbury very coolly replied to him
that his remarks were not intended to insult
any one, but he thought that Mr. Bayard's re
marks were " unjust and ungentlemanly, and I
hold myself rearinnsible, bare or el:ewhcre, for
what I say." I don't believe that there will be a
fight. The Convention nominated an electoral
ticket and a candiatte for Congress—one Benjamin
F. Biggs. Mr Diggs was an aid line Whig, who
came over to our party a few, years ego. Ile is a
man of no legislative experience whatever, and of
very ordinary ability. Those men did not expect
to elect him, but merely gave him the nomination
to lay him on the shelf. From all I can learn it
was nothing but an assemblage of the old party
leeches that have been running the party for their
own benefit for many years. John C. Breckinridge
will not obtain tho veto of this State; our people
have beard from Missouri and Kentucky.
In the Delaware lnquiter of to day a call ap
pears for a Convention to nominate en electoral
ticket, composed of mon who will vote, if eleete I,
for the nominoes of the Democratio party, and a
candidate for Congress who stands upon the non
intervention platform; the Convention to meet
on the 28th of this month. We will also run regu
lar tickets for every Ace. It is necessary that the
party organization should bo maintained. This
evening we nominate our candidate for Mayor and
city officers, and we hope to elect them. lam op
posed to fusion with traitors, and I endorse ovary
word that has appeared ig Thc Press on that sub
joot. The Democratic party never compromised
before, and there Is no necessity now. It would be
rank treason, however, to coalesce with the Die
unionists under any circumstances. A few weeks
ago, it was said there were no Douglas tuen in
Delaware, now they aro like the " leaves in Val
lambrosa," and the cry is, still they come. Dela
ware will not be ashamed of herself after the elec.
Bon, we are well satisfied. Yours truly,
ON Monday morning, 6th, about 3 o'clock, a
most singular acoidebt occurred at tbe Clarendon
Hotel, in Buffalo. The Republic says: "A colored
waiter in the house by the name of Leroy Mon
day, with the rest of the servants, sleeps in the
fourth story of the building over the dining-hall,
his bed close up to the window. The night being
very hot the window was open, and in his rest
leseness ho rolled out. Ho fell a distance of some
forty foot, in his descent striking the window-sills
of ono of the lower stories, causing the sash to fall,

A PALERMO letter gives the following anec
dote of a sister of charity : "A young patriot,
named Francisco Rise, was killed on April 4th,
during a popular demonstration which took place
before OaribaldPa arrival. On April 20th his
father, Giovanni Riso, sixty years old, was shot by
the Bourbon soldiers without so much as Ito form
of a trial. On the very day that Garibaldi en.
tared Palermo a young and beautiful nun, Ignacia
Rise, the sister and daughter of this two Elsos
above named, left the convent, and amidst a shower
of halls and grapy shot, a cross in one hand end a
poiguard in the other, placed herself at the head
of OaribaldPs column, crying, Down with the
Bourbons! Death to the tyrant! Vengeance !'
She kept her place as long as the fight lasted, and
her courageous attitude oleotrillad the volunteers.
Ever since that day the name of Unsafe Else has
been held sacred. When she passes in the streets
the soldiers bow law and bless her with the most
profound respect. Garibaldi himself pays her
great attention, and loves her as if she were his
own daughter."

his speech is given in the Locomotive, which
says:
" We were present last night at a vary full

eloquent and argumentative speech of about two
hours in length. Ile discussed the most import

—The Secessionists are very unfortunate in their
political literature. Opposed by every leading
journal in the country except the Washington Cox
stitution, Philadelphia Argus, and the New York
Herald, some of their desperate efforts to mould
opinion through a paid press are amusing. Thus,
at a town in Ohio called Eaton, they have ventured
upon the experiment. The organ bears the follow
ing formidable title: National E Pluribus
Ununt Democrat Its motto is highly original—
" Principles, not Men," and in sire it it said to
rival a baby's bib. According to the N E. P. 11%

the Battery, and along the New York dooks to
