that it is in my power or yours, or th.it

The rt so! nth-;:s cf ihe Georeia Legisla
ture, at its last session, upon the subject
ot peace, in my judgment, embodied ar.d
set i.nn very cieany iiiosq principles, upon j
which alone there can be permanent i-eace i
bet wet n the different sections of this ex- j
tt-nsive, t rice h'.ppy and proFperocs, but j
now iti.itracted couritry.
Lhsv an i perfect solutions to nil pi -sent
truubl. s. and those far more grievous
oiks w!:ie.h lot.ru in prospect, aial pt.-rtcn-f.t)iis!y
threaten in the foniini future, is
nothing more, than the simple reeoniti'.-n
of t!ni fun lan.t lital principle and truth
! noon which all Aiacrieun constituii ma!
liberty i i foun led, and upon the mamtc
risnce .of ".vhicli alone it ran be preserved
that is, the Kovereigntj-, the uhi:nate.
nbsolut sovereignty of th? States. This
d.(Ctri;:e our legislature ariTiounee J to the
people ht iL-N'Jitli ai.d to the, Wt.ehl. It
is t ho only key-note to peace permanent,
lasting peace consistent with the secur ify
of the public liberty.
The old Ceiifc deration was formed upon
this principle. The old Union was after
wards formed upon this principle. No
league can ever be formed or mai itained
between ar.y Stale, North or South,
securing public liberty, upon any other
principle.
The w hole framework of American in
Ftitut'uns, which in so short a time had
won the admiration of the world, and to j
which we were indebted for such an un- j
paralleled career of prosenty and happi
ness, Was formed upon this principle. All i
our present troubles sprang from a depar- j
ture from this principle, from a violation j
of this essenrtal law of our political or
ganization. In 1770 our ancestors and the ancestors
of those who are waging this unholy cru
sade against us, together proclaimed the
great and eternal truth for the maintenance
of which they jointly pledged their lives,
their fortunes, and their sacred honor, that
governments are instituted among men,
deriving their just powers from the con
sent of the governed, and that whenever
any form of government becomes destruc
tive of those, ends for which it is formed,
it is i he right of the people to alter or
abolish it and institute a new gove rnment,
laying the foundations, on such principles,
and organizing its powers in such a form
as to them may seem most hktly to effect
their safety and happiness.
It is needless here to stato that by
" people," and governed," in this an
nunciation, is meant communities and
bodies of men capable of organizing and
maintaining a government, not individual
members of society. The consent of the
governed refers to the will of the mass of
the community or State in its organized
form, and expressed through its legitimate
and properly constituted organs. " It was
Jupon this principle the Colonists stood
justified before the world in effecting their

of our Confederacy loimed their new com- :

T!ie idea that the old I'nien or any
Union between sovereign States, consis
tently with this fundamental truth, can
be sustained by torce is jncposterous.
This, war springs from an attempt to do I
this preposterous thing. Superior power ,
may compel a Lmon ot some sort, but it
would not be the Uniuii of the old Con-
stitution or of our new. It would be that j
sort of Union that results from despot- j
ism. !
The subjugation of the people of the !
Smitli by the people of the North would
necessarily involve the d .-strut tion of the i
Constitution, and the overthrow of their i
liberties as vvt-U as ours. The men or i
party at the North, to whem you refer,";

Since your last session, the II oody 1
drama of war has been played with urf-
paralleled loss of life and destruction of i
proieity. ijv the lavor ot IJivme Provi-
di-nee the victory has been for the most
p;irt with the Confederate arms. The i
serious lo-s to th' South is the oecu- !
pation of a portion of Northwestern Geor-
gia and the fall of Atlanta. This, though
; serious bUv, is by no means irrepara-
ole. Instead of causing a. relaxation of
exertions, it should inspire us with renew-
e l energy and courage. A calm review
of the spring and summer campaigns gives
the South no cause for -despondency or
