- A GKEAT SPEECH.
It is truly refreshing, in tills' era of wilif
and iiroscriptive radicalism, an exhibited in
the daily proceedings of the American. Con
gress, to hear amid the storm that prevails
the manly counsels of one who, cmbned
with the spirit of true statesmanship, speaks
as patriots were wont to spVak in the earlier
and purer days of the republic. Of this
character was the speech of the JIbN. Mr.
Datvsox, of Pennsylvania, recently deliv
ered in Congress; 'on the present and pros
pective condition of the country ; from the
concluding part of "which we; extract the fol
lowing, and commend it to the sober thought
of every honest citizen, regardless of his past
prejudices or associations in connection with
the recent troubles of tho country :
Mr. Siieakcr, I have but a word to add
concerning the relation of the General Gov
ernment to tho States, and of the States to
one another I have listened with respect
and attention to the principles of interna
tional law as they have been discussed with
rare ability by the distinguished gentlemen
on the other side of the I louse, but I think
they have failed to prove out'of Grotius and.
attel anu i'nticnuori tnat America lias, no
laws, no Constitution, and no Union am6ng
her great sisterhood of States. "We must not
forget that we am considering a question
purely of internal administration, which
must be settled solely bv the municipal laws
of our own country, and not by the law
of nations, the question before us is,
what are the rights and obligations of our
own citizens toward their own government
in time of peace ; and not, what are the
relative duties of two foreign countries in
time of oncn and ilatrnint war 7 The law of
natfons take no cognizance of that which is
done in time of place by a single government
with its own people.
It is true that where a people divide, and
the parties become hostile to one another
and take up arms and thus make a civil
war, the common humanity of the world
will insist that the contest between them) as
long as it continues to be a military contest:
shall be carried. on according to the rules
and principles which apply to separate be!
ligorent nations.
I maintain that wlien tnn rebellion was
suppressed the law resumed its aathority.
The law was suspended during the rebellion
because it could not be executed; bat it was
not repealed, destroyed, or abolished. If
the (sovereign whose power has been opposed'
by an insurgent force is an absolute despot,
he may wreak his vengeance at will, asliu-

govern alter a- rebellion a tie did belore,
according the Jaws of tbe realm. If the
armed ODDosition wait made acainst a con
stitutional republic, It is abrard to "say that
the officers or legislators vf the government
have acquired from the rebellion a power
which the Constitution did not give them.
It is equally absurd to say that the laws
were abolished by the very war which was,
waged for their preservation. We awst re
member that this government has net. been
revolutionized by the Southern rebellion,
and I dear that it lias added one particle to
the power of any man who holm o&ee u Eider.
the United Mates'.
I believe most devoutly in the constitution
framed bv the fathers of the Heraldic, and
in that Union which was the result of the
constitution. I have no fiuth hi any other
mode of briseisg the States together; We
must still look to that conctitutioH ami the
laws for a i&sti Scat ion of all we do. and
every citizen may still plead that he owes
no obedience to mere arbitrary- power be
cause there is no arbitrary power ia exis-
tence.
I happened to rereaent a reran of coun
try which was once in rebellion against the
United State. "The mfitrrectioir "was pat
down by sfiferior military force. In those
days, under the lead ot Washington and
Hamilton, the saonMrons doctrine that as &

We mast' cow e" back,, then to" the rrtfklas&eii
tal law, wlncJi ia the true source of all power,
.and the true standard of dty for all the
people who are under or jurisdiction.
1 TJie Committee on Becdnstrtiction has'
proposed an amendnient to the' Constitution
exclftdtBg freei the basis of representatibn
all persona dented the franchise on account
of race or eolor. t This" proposition strikeaiat
the'ConsiitutiOB in its most vital particuhir,
manv advocates withont naseh coh
w deration". The whoia question of repre
sentation was settled by our fathers wkh
great difficulty, after- a most careful and
matured deliberation, It is unwise to. dis
turb it. The policy 'of amendawfif once in
tfodttced. will not atop with cmtMling the
representation of the Southern States.
Under tlw Cbnstitntion all legklativepowirs
consist of a Senate and House of Representa
tives, thi. lsktive jiowers 'of the Senate
being equal, to that of the House. In addition
to tliis the Senate is a part of the treaiy
making and, appointing power." If it is in
tended that representation shall he based
npon numbers, then we mast reaodel tljat
part of the Conatitntien which, gives' to New
England and several of the. new States! a
voice so largely disproportionate to their
population. The sir Is ew England States,
with a population lees than Nw
,YerkatAtt little, greater than I'enwyl
.vwiia liave. twelve Senatentwhile each'qf
the latter have but two. With this dispro
portionate power New England had shaped
the policy of the government to her own
advantage, in the .navigation laws; ia the
fisheries, and in the protective policy. The
great agricultural interests of the country,
and especially those States situated in' the
valley of the Mississippi and arouid the
Gulf of Mexico, have; been toiled By her
for nioro than fifty years. The instincLof
empire, stimulated by the example of amcUd-
' merit will arouse this" interest to circum
scribe a power so full of exaction and pro
hibition.. Such reform! WQahl readily com
mend itself to the judgment as well as the
passions of men, and soon become an cle
ment of party warfare. Be cartful, then,
how yon lay the hand of innovation on this
part of the. Constitution.
The idea ofa certain class of politicians,
of confiscating the lands of the South aha
parceling them 'out among negroes and ad
venturers, has for its object the extermina
tion, of the present generation of Southern
whites, and shows the barbarous ammiorof
that most impracticable party. They
would adopt that same policy of irritation
which was attempted: by Elisabeth and
James in Ireland, and which has been fruit
ful only of heart-burning and -discontent 'to
.the present hour. ,
It is not the policy of the government to
"keep it pressed upon the mind' of tho
South that tber are subject to a gallg
yoke. Neither is it right. The peoplciof
the South when they havo once, given-in
their adhesion to' the government aroiaa
much freemen, as much entitled to protec
tion in the rights of self-government, aa any
portion of the North. There ia a broad dis
tinction between power and right, and whilo
the government possesses the power, she
should exercise it in subordination to thiso
great principles pf democracy and republi
canism which constitute the basis of qur
system. It is a plain violation of' thescto
force upon the South any modification of
tier social condition, any politieai Mains not
sanctipned by her pcoplo throngh their law
malcintr assemlilira.
Such a policy may drive a people to de
spair, may prepare the fuel for lighting
anew tne names of insurrection; trat vhll
never generate lovo for the government
which thus seeks to oppress them. True
statesmanship will' not attempt to succeed
bv' such means. A strict regard for' justice,

struck out in advance of the menage has

have seen a frightful dweiavof the wild ind
reckless passions of our nature, manifesting
iron in prusenpuon, cofiuscauofl, anu an
Utter disregard of the rights of person and
property, of freedom of speech and-publsca-tion,
and of trial by jury. If we look bick
to the instructive Tecords of that Common
wealth which was the greatest which pre
ceded our own, we find that when once a fac
tion which dominated resorted to proscrip
tion and the. gratification of Malignant pas
sion this was. the uataral excuse or tbe op
posite taction, on succeeding to power, of 're
taliating the same abuses. Sylla was the
leader in this sanguinary policy. Then! it
was frceljr resorted to by Maris and,' by
Cinna. Even Cicero, with all Ids high-ton ed
principles, descended to this abuse in tne
punishment, without law, of the Catiliniaa
conspirators. A reaction was tho natural
coBeequence. The infliction of ptisishBaent
contrary to law excited. asympatkr with the
vicJoufl, and Cicero himself was soon atuf-
fercr by the same code. Ihe event proved

From the Paris Journal des Debits, Jan, 12.1
What will become of Mexico 71 What can
become of it? Great mystery hidden Iri tha
depths of t!i6 future! Wo seek not' to-penetrate
it. Only wo wish that Mexico had not
becomo such an embarrassing matter to us
and an obligation originating in a fafce point
of honor, and wo shall hold ourselves fortu
nate if, so far as Franco is concerned, our
experience, commenced with loyalty and
continued with courage, Is conducted aad
ended without obstinacy. In rcieace, nega
tive matters, patiently proved and reeetutely
ccceptcd, have as much Importance at feols
tivd facts. It should be tho same ia polities.
Wo recognize, without hesitation, the
grandeur of tho problems which the Mexican
aucstion originates. They are probing of
iffercnt kinds, and all important. J One
problem of political science la: Whet tune
uo a people, half doting and half Kwaw
and consumed by anarchy, as ihepeepfe of
Mexico, require to restore order aad ibuad
its own government?
Another problem Is: is the jimnm
population of Mexico sufficiently aataerowt
to create and nutain a purely European
Government, or fa the union of the twd wees
the European race and the race of mixJ
blood sufficiently nrosresaed so that this
nation, half Spanish and half Indhwv may
be capablo foriU part of cre-tbsf anil sus
taining a Government analogous to Mi1 ek
menta? The problems of political ethaeloaar are
not less interesting. Should the Latmraee
watclt with jealousy tho expansion of the
Germanic race in America? Shewld' it seek
to counterbalance it at every peneZ Is it for
us that is. Franco whose origin is half
Latin and half Germanic, to forcibly main
tain this difficult equilibrium? If the Latin
race has tho same power of expansion, as the
Germanic, let-it show it by iadi vidua! efforts.
Let it emigrate; let it colonise. It is by ac
tivity and endurance tnat csca -alios ex

space on which the sua nums. Jf oa the
contrary, the Latin race has not .the lift of
expansion; if it is more domestic aad Um

armed expeditions? Is it to mmte aaaqateti
ia place of colonics? Is it cbliyJ to carry
cannon, ever and everywjie-, goaMflj it
