WEDNESDAY MORNING..JUNE 10 1863
INTERESTING LETTER FROM JUDGE
BITER.
The Albany Argus publishes the following
interesting letter from Judge WILLIAM ALMX
ANDRE NEE; L. L. D., author of "Lectures on
the Constitutional Jurisprudence of the United
States," and formerly President-of Columbia
College. The letter is one of the ablest expo
sitions of the peculiar condition of the country
we have seen, and the suggestions it throws
out and the advice it contains are well worthy
the serious considerat' of our people. We
presume the letter w dressed to the late
il l
Albany Mass Demoora meeting:
OSWEGO, May 20, 1863.
Gentlemen—l received some time ago your
letter inviting me to attend the public meeting
called to vindicate the right of the people to
express their sentiments upon politionl ques
tions. It was not in my power to be present
at the meeting, and illness has prevented me
until the present moment from answering your
letter. I answer it now, though late, both to
explain my apparent incivility, and also because
I think that in the present crisis no loyal citi
zen ought to shrink from the expression of his
opinion.
The action that has taken place since your
meeting *as held, convinces me that it is the
intention of the President and his advisers to
crush opposition to their acts by means of
forcer and terror. For this purpose they have
established and do now actually enforce martial
law in . several %pal States, and they will
doubtless do the same in New York, and every
where else, unless they are made to know that
the people will not submit to it:
To many persons the words "martial law"
do not convey any very definite idea. They
know that it is something very harsh and rigor
ous, and summary, but they suppose that it
bears some resemblance to all other laws of
which they have ever heard or read, in this re
spect at least : that it defines offences and fixes
their punishment. Andl cannot but suppose
that many of those who clamor for its estab
lishinent are ignorant that it is nothing in the
world but the absolute and unrestrained will of
a military Chieftain. Permit me then to give
a description of martial law upon the authority
otthe highest judicial tribunal of our country.
The language is that of Jndge Woodbury, in
delivering the opinion of the court, in a case
determined by the Supreme Conft of the Uni
ted State : ".49,y it," says the court, "every cid
zen, instead of reposiny under the shield of known
and fixed laws as to his liberty. property and life,
aidtB With a rope round hie neck, subject to be hung
up by a military despot at the next lamp poet, under-
Me sentence of some drum-head court martial."
It is true that Republicans have reason to
believe that they will be safe from the horrors
of this law, under a Republican administra
tion. No Republican or Abolitionist has yet
been arrested, imprisoned or banished, and
they may reasonably calculate that none ever
will be. Such persons are permitted to stig
matize the Constitution as a league 'with hell,
and insist that the war shall be prosecuted,
not to restore the Union, but to - destroy it,
without being regarded as guilty of any "dis
loyal practices." The- only sufferers, so far,
have been Democrats. Indeed, the very pur
pose for which 'the establishment of martial
law is sought by the managers of thn, clubs and
leagues, is to destroy the Demoortio party.
And we find it declared in an officlifdoeument
emanating from the War Department, that to
support the Democratic' party is to support the
cause of the rebels. This terrible engine,
I then, is to be set in 'motion by one political ,
party for the persecution of another, aiming
neighbor against neighbor; and setting issues
in every household. 'The machinery is pee
-1 pared. Already the secret societies are in mo
tion, bound by what oaths I know not. That
they who design these things design all their,
dreadful consequences I do not believe; but
they know little of human nature and little of
history who cannot dieoern thew- Under a
single despot there is equality;. from a 'single
despot there may be hope of escape. But the
worst form that despotism can assume is that.
of the tyranny of party over party; and if
anything can add to its horrors 'it is when the
dominant faction is inflamed by fanaticism and
led by priests.
What matter!' it that these men are eonaci..
entious ; ihat they act under a sense of duty,
of religious dety 1 .1 do not impeach their
motives. The more ponseientious they are, the
worse. All 'fanatics are conscientious, and it
is this ilia, makes their tyranny, of all tyran
nies, the most insufferable.
What we .cati and ought to do, beyond the
mere e,xpression of• our sympathy, in aid of
our oppressed - countrymen in Ohio; Benlinclty
'and Indiana, is a subject upon which it may be ,
as well at present •to say nothing. , Let:us wait,
the course of events. We have an immediate
questions toidetermine for oureelves,snd that is
whether we will permit the establishment of
the same species of government in our own
State—a government which not only no En
gliahman and no Frenchman would endure,. but
against which the very laszaroui of Naples
would revolt. • I do not speak of exceptional
cases of en extreme public necessity, such as
we may imagine, though their occurrence is
not at all propable ; but I speak of systematic
acts, done under claim of right, without neces
sity, upon false pretences, acts which are not
only flagrantly unconstitutional, but utterly
subversive of liberty and of law, and of which
the manifest tendency, if not the purpose, is
not to maintain the Union, but to destroy it.
I am sure that we will not submit to this, and
we ought to say so plainly. I have no faith
in any petitions, protests or remonstrances
that fall short of this. There is danger in
leaving the President ignorant of our purpose.
I am got sanguine enough to hope for anything
from his sense of justice or respect for the law.
The powers that control him, whether spiritual
or terrestrial, will do to us whatever we will
suffer, but are not likely to attempt that which
they know we will not suffer. '
At the same time I deprecate all resistance
that is not strictly constitutional. Let us not
only submit to, but support all proper autho
rity. The Pfesident claims the constitutional
power to establish Martial law over the body
of the people in the loyal Staten. We deny it.
Let the courts determine the question. The
judicial authority is vested ig the Courts, and
not in the President, the Congress, or the army.
It is as much the duty of the President, as of
any private citizen, to submit to that authority,
If he resists it, he becomes an usurper, and
may himself be lawfully resisted. And, on the
other hand, if any court or judge, acting under
the forms of law, shall sanction his monstrous
assumptions, let us in turn submit; not be
cause there may not he judicial as well as ex
ecutive usurpation, and the same right.in ex
treme cases to resist the one as. the other, but
on account of the condition of the country, ,en d
the double dangers that assail us. In this.
way there feLay be occasional acts of tyranny,
PRICE TWO CENTS.
as has been already, but upon the whole the
restraint of the judiciary will be found ade
quate to our protection, if the President him
self will respect it.
But if any citizen of this State shall be ar
rested or imprisoned by military men, or by
provost marshals or other officers, acting un
der the authority of the President, and the
court before whom the question shall be brought
shall determine that he is entitled to his liber
ty, then, if in spite of this decision, force shall
be used to detain him, there ought to be no
hesitation to support the judiciary in opposi
tion to military usurpation, and I should re
gard it as base and cowardly not to do so, un
less In the face of such a force as should make
resistance quite hopeless. If it be said that
such action would impede the successful pros
ecution of the war, I answer that it is better
that a nation should lose a portion of its terri.
tory than its liberty. And if for this cause the
rebellious States shall succeed in establishing
their independence, the fault will . be that of
the administration ; and the people, driven to
choose between two evils, will have wisely
chosen that which, beyond all comparison, is
the least. •
The times require, in a very high degree,
the exercise of the virtues of courage and of
prudence. Moderation in our counsels will
give us strength and unity in action. Let us
accept as our leader, him whom not less merit
than position designates, (the Chief Magietrate
of our State,) and follow and support that
moderate and patriotic, but not feeble or un
manly, policy which he has recommended and
enforced with so much dignity and success,
and I shall yet hope that the Union may tri
umph over both classes of its enemies—the
Southern Secessionists and the Northern Abo
litionists.
I remain, gentlemen,

'Esq., President; Joseph P. Walton, Es;., and
John D. Evans, Vice Presidents ; and Capt,

Secretaries.

Oberholtzer, John Miller, John D. Evans, R.
E. Monaghan, Henry Hamor, Jaoob C,

John IL Mackey, were atopointed a committee
to prepare resolutions for the consideration of
the convention, and withdrew for that purpose.
During their absence, John Rutter, Esq., at
the call of the convention, made a brier but
able speech, in which he eloquently discussed
some of the subjects at present greatly agita
ting the public mind. At the conclusion of his .
reparke, the committee reported the following
resolutions which were received with enthusi
astic approbation, and adopted by a unanimous
vote :
RESOLUTIONS.
1. Resolved, That the Union of .the States,
under the Constitution as formed and, under
. stood by the framers thereof, has cver , been
and still• continues to be the great deaire of the
Democratic party, and history must record , it
as free from all responsibility for the present
disrupting and ruinous civil war brought about
by Northern Abolition and Southern Secession--
a condition of things which would eertlunly
have, been prevented and avoided, if the lead?
ere and eontrollere of the Republican party bad
discarded sectional and yielded to the dictates
of patriotism and the wise and conservative
Counsels of Washington and JaCkson.
2. Resolved, That the life of the American
system of free government consists in the pre
servation of the constitutional rights and lib
erties of the citizens. Permit these to , be vio
lated without jusCrebuke and condemnation, •
and liberty dies; the reople become the slaves
of arbitrary power ; and extended doxiinibn
is but extended despotism. •
8. Resolved, That more than two years of.
experience cannot have failed to convince all
unprejudiced idtizens' whose first with is fertile
general :welfare of the wholevountry, that the
Republican party is utterly inoompetent te ad.
minister, successfully, the affairs of • govern
ment ; that its views and purposes are teo.?el
flat and sectional ; that its fanatical and un
practical ideas in behalf of the negroes, lesdit
to neglect the intereese and violete the rights
of
_white men. We therefore,call upon all. who
desire a restoration of the good old• times of
unites, prosperity and peace, to rally' at 'Once
with the Democratic party, and ' • again . give it
the power and control of the State and general
gevernmeets, fee it was under the policy .and
administration of That party that our country
had become 'mat among nations, and our
citizens happy, prosperous and peacefnl at
home. •
4. Resolved, That th*frequent and repeated
violations of the Constitution in its assurances
and guarantees of rights to the people and the
States, by the present administration of the
general government—especially its arrest,
trial and punishment, by military law, of citi
zens not connected with the army or navy, or
in ineurreatien or retiellion against the general
government, but residing in States where the
civil law is in unobstructed force, and United
States and State courts open—are acts of usur
pation destructive of free• governme nt, . and
should arouse the citizens to a propeesense of
the dangers now threatening their liberties.
5. •Resolved, That the arrest, trial and pun
ishment, by military power and force, of the
Hon. Clement L. Vallandigham i of Ohio, for
an alleged offence which, if silk offence at all,
was cognizable only by the U. S. Courts under
acts of Congress approved by President •Lin
coin, was an outrage upon Law and the clearly
defined constitutional rights of the citizen,
which presents some of the worst features of
military despotism, and, if sanctioned by the
American people, will prove them unworthy of
the free institutions inherited from their revo
lutionary ancestors.
[On the reading of the foregoing resolution,
the Convention arose and gave three earnest
and enthusiastic cheers for Clement L. Vallan
dighsm, three more for the cause he represents,
and three more for the petple who , support
him and his cause.]
• O. Resolved, That the conduct of Governor
Curtin, in silently and tamely permitting citi
zens of • Pennsylvania, guilty of no offence
known to the law, and esertieing no privilege
or right not guarabteed by the Constitution,
to be arrested, molded out of the State, and
subjected to unjust and illegal punishment, has
shown himself unworthy of the Gubernatorial
office. •
7. Resolved, That the people of Pennsylvania
are about entering into one of the most impor
tant civil contests in which they have ever
'participated, 'because of the influence which
the result must exercise for or against the in-

tereits of the citizens, the rights of the States,
the restoration of the Union as it wasi. avid the
cause of constitutional government. It is,
therefore, incumbent upon the Democracy to
select, as their Gubernatorial candidate, a man
whose private character and personal integrity
cannot be truthfully assailed—whose fidelity
to the doctrines and .principles of State rights
and Federal Union ve above suspicion—and
whose moral courage in behalf of right, and in
opposition to won', mai confidently be relied
on by the people, in any crisis through which
they may be called to pass: Such a man is
our fellow citizen, Nimrod Strickland; and if
the State Convention, in ite wisdom and judg,
ment, should confer the nomination upon him,
we know that the Democracy of Chester county
would unanimously ratify it and unitedly rally
with their Democratic brethren of the State,
to his support as the standard-bearer of the
true and great Constitutional Union party of
Pennsylvania.
CONFEREES
By authority of the convention, the Presi
de& appointed Col. Joseph B. Baker, Dr. E.

REPRigENTATIVE DELEGATES.
On motion, the convention proceeded to vote

Uwohlan; Middle die.—John H. Brinton, Esq.,

Morrison, of West Fallow field.
On motion it was resolved that the proceed

The convention then adjourned.
EXTREMES MEETING.
Front tin Albany Argue.
There is no more earnest and determined
advocate of a Anal separation of the Union—
no fiercer enemy of reconstruction on the battle
of the Constitution, than the Richmond Enqui
rer. As the organ of Jefferson Davila, and of
the men who, under him, have risen to power
in the Confederate . Government, it is naturally
opposed to any restoration of the Federal. re
lations, which would strip these ilea of their
homeit and coneign them to Oblivion. ,Any re
union of the States, whether accomplished by
the strong arm of War, or by peaceful means,
would be annihilation to the Enquirer and its
party. It believes' that by the Sword alone,
the reconstruction it so dreads and deprecates
can neyer,be brought about, and is therefore
willing that the war ahould continue until, ex
hausted and ruined, the North must submit to
final separation. What it really fears its lest
the Democracy in the next Presidential elec
tion should bring the masses of both sections
together again in friendly council to reason, to
persuade, to yield, and by mutual concessions
to put a stop to
. the present unnatural strife,
and again live in brotherhood under a common
Constitution and a common Government. This
is the Skeleton in Rehouse. It fears the Dent
°credo party as the only party by which the
Union can be restored add the South prevented
front accomplishing its object of a separate
Confederacy, and it does not cease to warn its

of final separation in this direction.
