To facilitate this purpose, a concerted appeal is now made to the people of the free Stites through the Press, to open the way to this dar- ing innevation, beginuing in the Southern States, unbappily vow brought ander the ban by the Caibounite conspirators. With this view, itis proposed to deciare the State Govy- ernments vacated in that section when they 4re restored to the Union, and all the loyal men of the South, wkom the treason of Presidents Pierce and Buchanan, in complicity with Southern traitors, bas subjugated, are to come under abeolute submission to the representa- lives of the Nortnero States iu Congress, with- out the vestige of a State right, a State law or Constitution to protect them. Nay, ‘not even the tranchige voir to rend & single representa- live to the legislative fody to which their des- tiny is to be committed. Simultaneously, three lending organs—the Chronicle at Washington, boasting a sort of official sanction; the Missonri Democrat, the ultra abolisher, of Fremont ft, at St. Lonis; the Atlantic Monthiv, whieh lends tothe parent stock at Hoston all it ean boast of literary strength and elegatice,—have struck the key Bote Of revolution, the sheer abolition of State Constitutions In the region eaff-ring under the rod of Weé’rebeltion,- The article in the Atlantic Monthly may justly be quoted as the programme of the movement.

But it is not over the States in the hands of rebels which the abolition pro- gramme proposes to assume jurisdiction, but over the States when wrested from the usurpa- tion of the rebels and in condition to be restored to the control of the loyal people against the Political military bodies how exerting the forces ot Government in that portion of the United States in which the rebellion reigns for the time triumphant. The Union wages war, but it does hot wage war upon the loyal people, apon the Constitution they recognize, or the trae Uonsti- tution, upon the spirit and forms of their Gov- erpment, upon its archives or property. On the contrary, the whole system as part of the Union subsists and is respected by the nation, and only remains in abeyance where the rebels bold sway by force of arms. It is against this rebel orgunization, against the persons and property, the means and instrumentalities of the rebels, that the United States make war in tense of the loral men and loyal govern- ments. * The arsumption that the certain States of the South are extinct—aunihilated by the rebel- Tion—and that a Congress composed of repre- fentatives from the Stutcs in which the rebel- lion dces not exist, has the right to consider the sister republics where insurrecion for the moment prevails, as dead .bodies, to be dis- pored of as they please when they get posses- sion, is abhorrent to ¢very principle on which the Union was founded.

Phe ‘iwtors ouly will have eommitted political suicide. “The man recovered from the bite; The dog it was that died.” T allow that “etis a patent and undisputed fact that (his gigantic treasum was inaugurated with all the Joris of law,” and + that the States pretended fo withdraw bodily in their corporate capaci- ues,” whica is the groundwork of the second propcsition of the programme, viz: *« That the States by their flugrani trenson have forfeited their rights as States so as to be civilly dead.” But the Fede Government is very Sar from adinitling that © the forms of law” employed by lbe r-bels, or the fact that « the States pretended to withdraw bogily,” affected in the least the lvgal status ot the States in question. Treason wae committed, pot by any State, but by the individuals who made use of the forms of the State governments, and attempted to dismem- ber the National Government. The suggestion that States, guaranteed by the Censtitution as ander the shield of the Union, bound to guarantee to each a republican form, of government, and that is a government adopt- ed by the people, for it is the essence of repub- . lican government that it shall emanate m the people of the State. The Federa) Government derives its power. from the same source, and it is on the people ard through the people that it must act asa Bationality, and not upon the States, dlotting them out of existence by @ sn; Cosng'et while their’ Constitution, laws, archiyes, property, | survive—and # loyal to give them int is thrown a Activity the moment that Eff. “The abolition progh con! } GT rainime assumes, on the that, Seca ‘violence has trodden do tate Governments and State Rights, they have ceased to exist; thiat'a loyal people in cen In any way be held responsible for this trea- fon and subjected to a forfeiture of their rights af @ Cc. neeqtence, shows the affinity of the ab- olitiontets to the nulliflers. Calhoun’s whole scheme was based on thé proposition they now ‘adopt, that the States “could withdraw bodily in their corporate capacity: | The true doc- trine, as laid down by the Fathers of the Oon- stitution, is that the employment of the forms of the State governments and the pretence of withdrawipg them in their corporate acity out of the pale of the National anthority, docs Hot shift the responsibility from the traitors to the people. ’ Hamilton, in the Federalist, marks the change on this point effected by theadoption of the Constitution. He raye: * The great and radival vice in the eonstraction of the eritting Confederation is the principle of legislation tor Stas or Govern- Ioerta in their corporate or collectiv acities and as contradistinguished {rom ‘he tudtnduate of whem they consist.’ He emphasives thie proposition in the ¢tropgest manner by the are of capitals in order to condemn the policy of acting on Statés instead of criminal inéividuals. The aim of thé abolitiobiers is now to accom- plitti this very thing in defiance of the Consti- tgtion. They demand that’ Congress shall attach the treason in the South, plotted in secret and eprung upon the nation by @ body of oath- bound conspirators, to the people of the whole region, and insist that they have forfeited their Tights in their corporate and collective capa. ciges Tor the treason of these individuals. lt asserts the power of lation over the Btates or Governments, instead of applying the law of treazon to the guilty individuals to whom alone, in the very nature of things, it is applicable. No learning is necessary to enable one to see thata State cannot be guilty of treason or apy other crime; only common sense is wanting to comprehend that guilt cannot be imparted to any but a sentient being; and only common honesty is required to perceive the injustice of disfranchising Joyal citizens on account Of thé offenses committed by the dis- loyal. jut the manifesto I am considering comes at ast to the conclusion that these modes of re- fining the States out of the Union are unsatis- factory, “I discard (says the writer) all theory, whether it be of State suicide, or State forfeiture, or State abdication on the one side; or State Rights, immortal and unimpeachable, on the other side; such discussions are oply endless nazes in which a Senate may be lost.” Verily, such con- temptuous ‘finging away of States and State Rights as ot uo better stuff than may be over- Jaid with cobwebs And dust—such filmsy ar- guments of State suicide, State forfeiture, State abdication, might, if indulged in, reduce the Senate to a lost condition. And the process of this scheme shows how readily ft might be merged in @ consolidated head. Mr, Blair proceeded to deal with the next proposition of the ‘‘ ukase” under notice, which is as follows: “ And in discarding all theory, 1 discard also the question of de jure. Whether sor example, the Rebel States, while the rebel- lien is flagrant, are de sure States of the Union with all the rights of States. Itis eocngp tor the time being, and in the absence of a loyal Government, they can take no part and pér- form no function iu the Union, so that they cannot be re@ognized by the National Govern- ment. The reasonis plain. Therearein these states no local functionary und by Consti- tutional oaths, so that there are in fact no con- stitutonal functionaries; and since the State Government is necessarily composed of such functionaries there can be no State Govern- ments,” Ju replying to’ this, Mr. Blair sald:—The ® juvolved in insurrection have malti- tudes.of Magistrates, State and. Vi Judges, and oth worn functionuries, to resume their fpnctions the moment the rebal military duress {8 removed, and the whole ma- chinery of the State: roment will be put in arehen and all civil efficers, as soon as che military Perret the Joplon hes eccomplishett its daties. n the meantimié, are not the State Governments ite fanctionaries, in the hands of their a) ponae ly ‘conalitntionst ¢ 1, when the ari of the nation is in their midst! ‘Thea, our arm 8nd its officers are at this instant executt 1% in all the States proposed to be @istranchived, ing with the loyal in each entitled to its | and | | | | | | \ | | | the election of representatives | the State authonty everywhere. In this way the moet potent recogniiien ike Union can af- ford is given to the Stuse Guvernment as mem- bers of the Union.

The isrue is wiade:— We must choore one or the other. His plan is simple. He would diehabiiitate thé reb-Is, and their usurpation ceed a Confaderacy of States; apd rehatilitate the loyal men and their States and Republican Governmenis. To do this he ust break the power of the conspirators; ciueh or expel them from the region of Mnsur- Tectlou, restoring Mm the persons of loyal citi- “ps within the confibes of their respective States the Republican Governments which Low have their administration committed to our loyal armits sud loyal citizens, who have their protection.

Kentucky, temporarily paralyzed by the treachery of her Governor, was goon put right by the people when furnished with arms by the Government, carried to them by the la- mevied ind gallant Neleon. In Maryland the attempt to turn her over to the Rebels was crushed by the arrest of treasonable legisl: tors. Virginia wae everwbeimed for a time; but Western Virginia being delivered from the simed brigands, called a Convention, elected a vislature for the whole State, (the greater pirt ot it being ell held by the Rebele,) was recognized a6 the law-making power of the sie State, as such divided the State and set i new Suite in the west. is exemplifies the President's mote of suving the Union. He saves the States put- ‘ing the powers of the Government, as soon as they ere red: emed, into the hands of loyal men; ana then the State resumes its place in the councils of the nation with all its attributes ardrigits. He has signified his purpose of in- viling Tepnessee and Lonisiana, now in pre- Parutiou. to tellow these examples, and every other State, as soon as they can be rescued from e Retel armies, will be aided to come in and te integrate the grxnd family of Republics. Now, whut is the pretext for abandoning this fe und healing policy of the President! So fur it bas worked well, and secured the appro- bation of all well-wisbers of the coantry. The Atolition programme shows somewhat of the motive for converting Staws into Territories to carry them back into colonial bondage, to take law trom Congress without representa- nu. The rrasons assigned are “slavery (stys the programme) 1s impossible within the ox- Civsive jurisciclion of the National Govern- ment.’ For many years he had had this con- viction, and he had constantly mantained it. The moment that the States fell slavery fell also, €0 ihat, without any proclamation of the Picsident, slavery ceased to have a legal of constitutional existence in every Rebel State. In cencert with the elaborate article in the Atantic Monthly, a Department organ, the Chronicle, at Washington, strikes the key-note of Stute aunihilaton im a leading editorial. “There” (says this print) “ig a conflict of nuhorities—of State and Federal! authorities— Sind it 1s clear that one or the other must be an- uihilated, 1f the State succeeds, the Federai uutbority is gone forever, nothing can restore i", Loteven the State iteeif which destroyed it; ier in this case the Federal authority woul bi coe subordinate to the State authority and be poGovernment atoll. For the same rea on if the kederal authority uils and succeeds in putting down the rebe. ns States must the State xuthority be destroyed.” And then tho case is put ot the preeent conflict, “in which eereral States combine against their common Fedeial Government, Here the power to be overcome is not only greater but ina moral point of view far more dangerous to the Fed- eral Government. Hence, when such a rebel- hon is subdued it is not ouly mecessary to de- stroy the treasonableelement in such rebellious Sta es, but aleo the power which these States —— to combine agaiuet the Federal authority,” wc. in conjunction with these movements at ‘Warhingion and Boston to annihilate the State governments which preceded and helped to create that of the nation iteelf, the coadjuators of Presidential schemes in St. Louis and through- out Miseouri are endeavoring to throw that State into the cauldron of revolation, that it, top, may be apnihilated or declared vacated. Dces uot the extreme anxiety evinced in certain quarters in theee forced efforts to prevent the Staves dropped out of the Union by conspirators from returning under the posplcre of the Prea- ident, the patriotic army of the Republic, and the loyal citivene who would, through maintain their own and the rights of the 8 in_ question, indicate someihing of a design:to command @ great event in prospect by revola- tionary means? N upon ove-third ef the States, mark- iug them for exclusion from the Union, when trenson is deteated and the trai.crs expelled, pe just, a8 wise, as constitutional, as likely to spa the troubles of the country as that marked ont end purened by the it?

Mr. Blair proceeded to show that the iseuce Were made p between the President and the Rebels and their foreign sympathixers, who would revolutionise our Government to create & separate Government inthe South, on the one hand; and on the other hand, between the President and the ultra Abolitionists, who would disfranchise the Southern section of the country. It is not improbable that the latter, though aiming ot @ different result, will be fouud co-operating im the end with con- spirators of the South and their foreign allies. bey may prefer parting with the South to partnership and equality under the Constitu- tion. ch ot Mr. Blair was listened to with The s great attention, and was interrupted by tre- quent applause. SYKECH OF EX-GOVERNOR THOMAS. Ex-Gov. Tuomas. of Maryland, familiarly known as “The War Horse,” was the next epeaker. He commenced by adverting to the fact that in that State they were in aatate of transition; were about to take a new ition in the politics of the country. He had felt that this siate of things was inevitable; had so warned the people of Maryiand, and regretted that they had not sooner prepared themselves to meet it. Gov. Thomas proceeded to give an «. of the machinauons of the squad of nullifiers, who, commencing their opérations in a “small boarding-house in Washington,” proceeded in their raischievous work until theslavery ques- tion, settled as it was understood definitely, by the Missouri Compromige was re-opened. The party that revived that contest was respon- title for every drop of blood shed in this con- test. If Old Hickory Jackson were alive he would endorse every s*ntiment piatea by the speaker. Peet He had warned the ople of Maryland that but one issue coald Youlbw irom the renewal of the contest, and that was universal emancipation. He was catisfied that it the issue ever came up between the question of preserving the Union or — eae Rete the latter muat 0 under. jause.| . {At th ‘ ie drunken copperhead in the crowd some noise, but was speedily hus- tled out. “Oh, iet him alone,” said the speaker, ‘she does not disturb matin the least.

Hetrusted that it would be the unanimous tceling of the State to haye @ convention. The question of slavery in Maryland was, however, in his épinion, a dead one, and the law-makers of Maryland ought now to step over this dead carcase and come to live issues; see what dis- poriticn shall be made of fugitive slaves; and adapt our household to the new condition of things. [Applause.] A miiiion of slaves were fugitives, and a million more would coon beso. He had en- quired of the Register of the Treasury what it cost President Frank Pierce to arrest the fugi- trve Burnsin Boston, and was told that the sum was $27,730! Ifiu 1554 it cost that sum w arrest one fugitive, they could estimate what wonld be the probability and the cost of reclaiming one or two millioas of fugitives in the preeent exasperated state of feeling. And the fact tbat slavery had suffered by the war should not be advanced to the prejudice of President Lincoln, Henry Clay or Andrew Jackson could not haye administered the gov- ernment during this war sons not to abolish slavery. so HE from the abolition of slavery being an evil, it would be a blessing to the State of Maryland.

[Applause.} The mement Maryland is rid of slavery her lands throughout the State will be worth $10 more per acre than they are now. The speaker proceeded at some length to eit oul the immense sources of wealth M ury- ‘and has in her coal mines, and which, if de- veloped under the quickening agencies of free Jsber, Would scon amount to more than the vainue of the entire superficial surface of the State, with Ssmbo and all his posterity thrown into the same side of the scale. [Applause.} Under such auspices Washington city might be expecied to grow up to & population of 5(0,0.0 eouls, Mr Thomas concluded by pointing out the tendencies of the revolutionary disintegration introduced by cecession, and whieh must end mm our having an infinity of petty separate governments cuch as Continental Europe sLounds in, and of a size that one of Gillmore'’s guns could easily fire across, and he painted in aLimated colors the undesiraple position Mary - lund would occupy as such a petty dukedom, with the necessity of maintaining a standing army, and all the exprnsive machinery of a government. BYEECH OF COL. JOHN C. HOLLAND. Cou. Jonx C. HoLLany (candidate for Cor- sTeee) next addressed the meeting. He said hs cculd notappreciate the political casuistry tha. will tuppcrt a Government but not the Ad- Minisiration. It was our duty to igriore th rop- cUS= questions of the past, and come now to th ~ erent living question, shall slavery go unde thar the Government may live, or the Union b broken up-and slavery sustained.
