If change be brought about, it must be done by an adherence to constitutional forms and usages, with out which a popular movement becomes insurrec- tion, and not legitimate action for the purpose of producing constitutional reform. He then proceeds to that “the constitution does not proceed on any ground of revolution: it does not proceed on any right of revolution but it joes go on the idea that within and under the con stitution, no new constitution/ can be established in any State without the authority of the existing gov ernment. This cannothelpthc gentleman's argument much Vypnsr his own case fells within the same range. He has proved, be thinks, that there, was an exist ing government a paper government at- leasts rightfulgovernmentmb be alleges; Suppose ittobe rightful. Suppose three-fouilhA of the people of Rhode Island to have been engaged in already to'sustain it What then? 1 How is it to be done willmut the consent of the existing government?— Because if that holds on, and will not surrender till displaced by fori*, and if it is threaten by force, then the case of the constitution arises, snd the United aid the government h.m » in, because an attempt to displace a govern ment by force is “domestic violence." It is the case provided for by the constitution. 1 If the ex isting govefnmentliold on, maintain its post, though threofourtlis of the State have adopted the new con- stitution—is it notevident enough that an exigency arises in which the constitutional pqwer here must go to the aid of the existing government ? Look at the'law of 2Sth February, 1795^—1 n A’oL I. of tbs statutes .at large, page 4Q4:.*‘andin case of insur rection against any State, oragai/ut the government thvrtofy it shall bo lawful for the President; bn ap plication of the legislature, .to call out the militia of other Slates, as he may judge sufficient to sup press such iosurrectioa." Insurrection against the existing government is to be suppressed. Now this is the view 1 take of what 1 have call ed'the American system.. .These are the methods of bringing about ebauges' in government. Now it is proper to took iuto this record and see what the questions are, that ore presented by it, and consider. . 1. Whether the case is One for judicial, invest!- galioa at all —that is, whether this Court can try tbo matters which the plaintiff has offered to prove in the Circuit Court below,-—and 2. lu the second place, whether many things which lie did offer to prove, were not nets of criminality, and therefore uo justification; and 0. Whether all that was ottered to be proved 1 wonld-siiow that, in poiot of feet, there had been established and pul in operation any new cottslitu | tian to displace the old charter government, of , Rhode Wand. i ;• • . . j I The declaration is in trespass.

The d«>fwn»teht unswerslhat large nembersof men, in arms in Ultbde Island for the purpose of over throwing thtr government of the stale, made war upon it; tliat for, the preservalipq of,the 1 govern* j meat and people.martial law hod been proclaimed by the Governor, Under an act of the Legislature on | the 25th of June, 1812.

J ! andthatfae lbaag*tb»bad a right to cocamt «*< | pad, yon most 4 *The main ground upon which tip prisoner sought far • justification was, that a .constilotioo r>xt heea adopted by a majority of jadnlt. . -population of this State,, voting for their primary or. natural capacity or condition, and, that h«LWa* .subsequently elected and did the acta charged, as Governor,.under it, -He offered the vote* them* selves to prove its adoption, which were also to be followed by proof of his election. This evidence we have ruled out Courts and juries, gentlemen, do mjt count votes to determine whether a constitu tion has been adopted, or a Governor elected, or not, Courts take notice, offered frotn the bar, what the constitution is or was, and who is or was the Governor of their-own state. It be longs to the legislature to exercise this high duty. It is the Legislature'’ which in the exercise of its delegated sovereignty, counts the votes and do* dares whether a constitution be adopted «r a Gov ernor elected or not, and we cannot revise or re- •rse their acts, in this particular, witliout usurp* ing their power. 1 t '“Were the votes on the adoption of our present constitution offered here to : prove that it waa or was not adopted, or those given for the Governor under it* to prove that he was or was not elected, we could not receive the evidence ourselves, we could not pennit it to pass to the jury. And why ndt? Because if. we uid so, we should-cease to be a mere judicial, and become a political tribunal, with the whole sovereignty in our bands. Neither the people nor the Legislature would be sovereign. \Ve should be sovereign; and we should deal out 14 parties litigant, here ot our bar, sovereignly to this or that, according to laws or roles of our own making, and heretofore' unknown in courts. In what Condition would this country be, if appeals Could thus be taken to courts and juries? Thu jury might decide one way, and that another, nod the sovereignty might be found here to-day, and there to-morrow. | “Sovereignty is above courts or juries, and tht creature cannot sit in judgment upon its creator. ■ Were this instrument offered as the constitution of a foreign stale, we might, perhaps, under some cir cumstances, require nroof; of its existence, but even in that case the fact would not be ascertained by counting the votes given at its adoption butf>y the certificate of die Secretary of Slate under the | broad seal of the* state. This instrument is not offered as'n foreign 'constitution, nod this court is ! bound to know what tlio constitution of the Gov ernment is under which it acts, without any proof even of that high character! We know nothing of the existence of.the.ro called ‘people’s constitution aslftWjand there is no proof before you of its adoption; and of the. election of the prisoner #• Governor under it,' nnd you can return a verdict only on the evidence that has passed to you.” 1 Having thus attempted to state the questions os they arise, nnd hoving : referred to what has taken iu Rhode Island. I shall present what farther 1 have to snv in three propositions: Ist. I say first that the matters offered to be pro ved by the plaintilfin the Court below are not of judicial cognisance; and proof of them, therefore, was properly rejected by the Court. 2d. If all these matter* could be and had been le gaily proved, they would have constituted no defence, because tney show nothing but on iUtgal attempt'to overthrow the government of Rhode Island. ; , 3d.'No proof was offered by the plaintiff to snow that, feet, another government had gone into operation,' by which the charter government had been ;displace«L • , And first, these matter* are not of judical cogm xance. Does this need arguing * Aire the various matters of fact assembly of meetings, the appointment of riommittees, the qualifications of voter*,—h» there’any one of all these matters of which a court of taw can take cognizance iu a question where they are to decide' on sovereignty? The thing to be proved is a change oT sovereign power. Two legislatures existed at the same time,; both power .to pass law*. _ Both cannot 1 have; a legal existence. What then is the attempt! of our adversaries 1 To put down one sovereign | government and to pat another up, by facts and , proceedings in tegnrd to elections out of doors, un* 1 autliorixed by any law whatsoever. Regular pro . ceeding* for a change of government may in some cases, perhaps, be taken notice of by a court, ami the court must look elsewhere lhanoutofdoors i mid to public meetings, irregular and unauthorized for the decision ofsuch aqoestidn as this. It nat-| urally looks tolhat authority under which it sits here, to-, the provisions of the constitution which have created this tribunal, and to the law* by which its proeecdinjsaro regulated. It must look , to the act* of the government of the United Slates in its various brandies. ; * I Tliis Rhode Island disturbance, as every Ixxly knows, was brought to the knowledge of the PrCa*! ident of the United States by the public authorities of Rhode Island; oAd'bow did he. treat it! The ■ United States have guarantied to each state _-a re- 1 publican form of government And a law ofCou* | gress'bas directed tbc President, in n oonstitntiooal \ case, requiring such action to call out the militia: to ! putdown- domestic violence.aml suppress msur r jffnn- Well then, application was made to thej i Breesidcnt of the United Stales, to the Executive power of the United State*. For accordingtoonr system it devolve* upon: the Executive to-deter* mine, in the first instance, what are and what ore not'governments. The Presidency recognizes gov-, ernmeuts, foreign ] governments as they appear from time to time in the occurrendes of this change* . fuiwotkh.Theconittmioftwdjfee.Uwgjwrt emmeni of any slalc, m*kmg it necessary to appear with an armed force, to call out the militia and put it down. Two things may here be properly considered.— The first is that the constitution declares that the U. -***«♦«• shall protect every state against domestic violence; and the law of *96 making provision for carrying this constitutional duty into effect in all proper cases, declares- that **in case of an insurrec tion in amtrtaie against the government thereof! it IxgSfrful for lliq President of the United Stales to2m|out ;the militia of other stales to sn^ • press suchjnsurrectwuit!’ These constitutional and legal provisions ihakeit the indispensable doty of the -President ip decide-in cases of corarao tion, wtial is the rightfull i government of the state. He cannot avoid such decision.. _ And in this case, he Redded of course-tbat the exirting government, the.ch<«ter government, was the right ful government.''"*" i In the next jtloce, if eventsbad made it necessary to call out the militia, ahdtheofifeers and soldiers of of such militia, in protecting the existing govern ment, had done precisely what the defendants in ihis case did,could Enaction have been manifested against them 1 ? Jr* • ■ In replv to the requisition of theGovemor, the President staled thalhedid not think it was yet time ;fi)f the application of force; but he wrote a letter to the Secretary of War, in which be is directed tn confer with the Governor of Rhode Island, and, whenever it should appear to them proper, to vail \ out from MaAsacausetts and Connecticut a militia force snflicicnl to terminate at once the insurrec tion in Rhode Island. We are at no lore to know | how the Executive government treated the insur- j rection in Rhode Island. ’ It was regarded a* to be put down. That is manifest from the President’s letters to the Secretary of War and to Governor Now the eye of this Court must be directed to the proceedings of the Government, which had its atteiitiuu called to th« which did insti tute proceedings respecting it, and the. Court will learn from the proceeding* of the Executive branch of the government, and of the lwi»Cham bers ulxjye us, liow the disturtranccs inTthode Island were regarded,—wltcthcr they wcrelooked upon as the esufolishment of any government, or as a mere, pure unauthorized, unqnalified Miwrrtfiois against lie authority of the existing gore mm cut of the state. , , I say, therefore, that, upon that ground, these facts are not foci* which this court can inquire in to, or which the Courts below could try, because they are facts going to prove {if they prove any thing,) tbo establishment of a new sovereignty, and font is a question tobesettledelsewhere andother wise. From the very nature of the case it is not a question to be decided by judicial inquiry. Taka for example one of the points which it involves; My adversary Offered to prove that the constitution was adopted by a majority of the people of Elude Island, by a large majority, a# be alleges. What does tins offer call on your honors to do! Why to ascertain by proof! what is the number of citixens in Rhode bland, aud how 1 many attended the meet ing at which delegates totlie convention were elec ted, and,then you have got to odd them all up, had prove by testimony the qualifications of every one of them to be an elector. It is enough testate sueh a proposition to show iu alwnrditv. As none such was ever sustained in a court of law, so none such can or ought to bio sustained. Observe that uiinute* of proceedings'can be no proof for they were made by no authentic persons, registers were kept by no warrantedfifficers, clmirmcn and moderators were chosen without authority. In short there was jio official record, there is no testimony in Iho case but parole.' I‘think that Chief Justice Durfee was right in hU interpretation of tlie law. Rut. again, l say you cannot look into tho fact* attempted to be proved, because of the certainty of the continuance of the old government till the legal constitution went into effect on the 3d of May, ISI2. To prove that tliero was another constitu tion of two.days length would be übsuriL And I *ay that tho decision of Rhode Island herself} by | herTLcgisiaturo, by her Executive, by the •judi cation of her highest court of law, on tbo trial of I iJorr, lias shut up the whole case. Do you propose | —1 will not put it in that form—diut would it be pro per for this court to reverse that opinion! -That declares that the Judges of Rhode Island know nothing of the ‘•People’s Constitution;” is it possible then for tins court or the court Wow, to ktww of ll 'lt appears to me that; if there were nothing else in the case, the: proceedings of Rliode Island her self most abut every mouth, tn tbs court and out of it. Rhode Island is competent, to do cldc the question herself and every body else ought to lie bouud by her decision. „ And it U but a branch of this to say, according to my second proposition,— . 2. That if every odereu had been proven, if in the nature of the case these (acts and. pro ; ecedins* conhl have been received aa proof the court could not have listened to them,because ev err one of them is regarded by the stale in wlucb they took place as a criminal act. Who can de rive anything from acts declared to bo criminal? The very proceeding* wluch are how set j up here •how that the nhw constitution was Ibunded upoa acU which the Legislature of the state, bad provi ded punishment for* and which the ccmru of the stale We. punished. ‘ All, therefore, which the plaintiff baa attempted to . provo here,; are heta which he wha not allowed to prove, because they wot criminal in themselves, and have been ao (xttsted aud punisbedjso lar aa the stale Govern ment Id its discielkm thought proper. - : IiTWCy and lastly, I say that there ia noeri iehen offered, norla* any dMilc»aßas»rion>on Mde;thal Ihera wan anucttalgoMmnienl tiUb.
