CREITED FREE AND EQUAL
he Commercial, of the afterno3u ci
Thursday, the last day of the old year,
discovered that it had been mis-quoting
the Declaration of Independence, and eu
deavored to cover up its ignorance by an
nouncing that it did not wean to quote
that instrument verbatim, but to give ex
pression "to a self evident truth"—that
all men are "created free Eir. d equal."
But our astute contemporary goes farther
than this and knocks the brains out of
its own Abolition digmas. Here i 3 it.
conclusion:
"We think, in all candor and honesty,
that an individual possessed of an Intel
lect sufficient to conduct the intricate and
complicated machinery of the Post, ought
to be able at least to approximate to the
meaning and intention of the author, and
see that he is referring to the rights of
man, as they exist under the law of tie
ture as distinguished from the law of man
—or that he is speaking theoretically and
not practically. And in this sense it i 2
True and always will be true, that all
men are created free, or "all men are
endowed, by their Creator, with certain
inalienable rights; that among these are
life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness...
But a pigmy will be a pigmy—an
Egyptian pyramid cannot be manufactur
td out of a mole hill."
If the Declaration of Independence
merely gave expreesion to an abstraction
when it speaks of men being "created
equal,'' why have the Abolitionista Leer
, 4,0 long torturing it in order to app!v
practically for the benefit of an itli - rnor
rack ' But the men of the revolutiou whu
tramed the Declaration of I n dependence,
were not speaking theoretically when they
declared all men created equal. They
were speaking tar t healaelves and their
countrymen, the same blood ad those
against whoa' tyranny they were about
to revolt. They were about to risk "their
'l ves their lottunes and their sacred bon
"ors,ta a contest for their Cherries
, rw ast a Government whose tyranny.
after years of remonstrance, compelled
them to revolt. The Government they
succeeding in establishing was a white
mane Government, having no reference
whatever to the African or the Indian.
rind the men of the revolution included
men of all all colors in their declaration
of equality, or had they been 80 under—

luded. We accept the pyramid, as an
apt figure of speech, designating the Co
iossal and mighty intellects and "gifted
minds" who have shone so luminously in
the discussion of nepotism, through the
Commercial's columns. But comparing
our neighbor to a pyramid, is unnecessary:
it is like piling Pelian upon Oven. We
never look at it that we are not struck with
its brilliancy and power, and reminded of
what nn inconceivable thing is the mighty
mind cf man, which enables "a gifted
mind to soar into the clouds, and cross
the " swollen waters of the angry dee;
swallows fly the air. — The only draw
back to this figure is that such mighty
minds should be contained in such huge
pyramids of frail, dross like mortality.

Desperate Legislation In the Rebel
Congress.
SPEECH Oi* SENATOR BROWN
In the Confederate Senate, on Thurs
day, Dec. 24, the resolution& offered on
the 10th inst.. by Mr. Brown, of Miseis
appi, indicating the measures which, in his
opinion, Congress ought to pass—being
the special order of the day—were then
taken no.
Mr. Brown then proceeded to address
the Senate.
He said that the two greatest needs of
the country wero to strengthen the army
and improve the currency. If the legiela-
I branch of the Government and the
Executive power will give themselves en
tirely to the country, these results may in
a short time be accomplished.
The question which addresses itself
most carnestly to our consideration i. sim
ply this: "Shall the Confederacy stand or
fall?" If it is to stand, the pedestal meet
be built with all our hearts. All crimina
tions and recriminations and differences
between the different branches of the Gov
ernmeut must cease. We must determine
to stand together in the common defence,
or fall together in one common grave.
Our success is certain if the patriotism
of the people holds out to the end. Oar
ph,,d reliance in this contest is in the
hearty and earliest patriotism of the
ple
At. the request of Mr. Brown, the Sec
retary read ihe rcacAriti, - ..ns which he had
submitted.
Mr. Brown then proceeded to consider
the constitntional objection which the op
ponents of these measures may uree. He
had this settled conviction, that when the
States conceded the war making power to
the control of Government, they gave
every identical power to make the main
power effective. The framers of the C 313-
.nzion were hilly vindicated from the
' •v of getting us into a war and then

Ir n.av he safely assumed that nineteen•
twentieths ot these people are engages in
traffic. They are the men who run the
blockade. depreciate our currency, and
appreciate the Yankee currency. The
man who wce.B becret!y to New York'or
any other Yanke. city. ar.d brings goods
here knowing that in doing so he violates
our laws, that man is not to be trusted in
trinking communications to the enemy,
HP would rather this day have a regiment
of Vanke.es turned ;nose on this city than
longer tolerate the presence of Ruch
people.
Mr. Brown next discussed at length the
prrposition that the Government should
r.rovide for the wives and children of des
titute soldiers in the held.
There wit', he said, ben Lurthen cn
the Government if you enact wise laws.
and have them faithfully administered.
Bait if sou hesitate every time a little
doubt as to power is raised, he would not
he responsible tor the consequences. In
the mdls, the wives and children
of our foldiere are starving and their limbs
are exposed to the blasts of winter. Will
Congress arouse from its lethargy and ap•
ply a -remedy ? How long will the farmers
of Virginia he allowed to extort the whole
month ti pay of a soldier in the field for a
bushel of meal ? This is done by men who
are allowed to remain nt home " that the
army must be fed. - How long are we to
tolerate this state of tEnga ? He would
say to these farmers, Disgorge, you
cannot Is allc.wtd to stay at home while
others are in the army. and, under the plea
of a ' depreciated currency,' wring from
the soldier's families their last cent."
Mr. Brown said he would commence by
picking those tne'o and poking them into
the army. This proceeding would, no
doubt, surprise these grandees, who think
they have grown too great to servo the
country.
Mr. Brown then discussed the currency
question. If there is to be any substantial
improvement of the currency let us stop
this tinkering with it. No government
ever yet established its credit by taking
up notes that did nct bear interest, and
issuing bonds that do bear interest. That
is the j.roposition cf the Secretary of the
Treasury. Never could he be brought to
vote for any , ull. uropositi , in He (Mr.
Brown) proposed the ri , nritcr rropoeition
of lev7 f lng taxes upon the property of the
country. Ilr agreed with the President

about twenty five per cent., and the man
who assessed should collect the tax. To
avoid the concealment of the notes, he
would appoint a convenient time and
place for the notes to be present 'd. Let
the agent retain one-fourth as a -1X and
stamp the other three fourths. All notes
not no stamped shonld, at the end of three
months, cease to be currency. By this

found the p3artr tc , do this in the necessity
of sustaining the public credit- It is non•
sense to tell him that the framers of a
piece of political machinery designed that
►t should run down like a clock, and none
to have the power of winding it up again.
Without a strong atm', and a Found cur
rency, what is the Constitution worth?
We are nut living ut.r a eanstizatLon
which requires us to sacrifice our liberties.
he had an oath to support such a
Constitution, he would disregard it be—
cause he believed there was no such C)n
stitution. - He had sworn to support a
Constitution which gave to the Gov
erninent just such powers as would enable
it to conduct the war to a successful con•
elusion.
I.3stly, he proposed to declare these
laws war measures, and no.fke those viola
ting them amenable to the military courts.
He was unwilling to submit legis'ivion
upon which hangs the destiny of th,s Con•
federacy, to the judgment of every little
petty State Judge, who, by his dec•ieinne,
may turn loose the flood of Yankee des
potiem to overspread the whole land.
He believed that all of the laws he had
advocated were absolutely necessary to
sustain the country in its impenledpondi
tion. In one State, they might be susTained
by the enlightened judgment of the Court.
In another, they may be overthrown. If
the people violate them, he wouldn't
trouble Judge Lyons' Court, but would
make punishment follow rapidly upon the
heels of the offence. We can't get along
in the struggle much longer without re
sorting to strong measures.
Mr. Brown said, in conclusion, that
unless Congress yes prepared to adopt
such laws as these, the country would be
brought to the eve of destruction. When
the spirits of all the long list of martyrs
who have fallen in this war, and the un•
told thousands who shall hereafter fall
shall cover this Capitol as with a cloud,
and demand to know the authors of all
this mischief, he, for one, at least, meant
to say, •'1 did not do it: shake not thy
gory locks at me...
