Syracuse Daily Courier And Union (Newspaper) - February 18, 1865, Syracuse, New York LY COURIE In a to Mr I em convinced upon conversation I of powers to the narrowest express ft H W W and bad at its head The of Pea Its Principles of Government in Sovereignty as it Exists among Us At the of ilie lato for Peace Mr DAVIS jave to Mr infor Mr BUir a stating in sub- stance that he was willing to waive forms and or receive commissioners to confer upon tho terms of tho two conn tries In his reply Mr Lincoln informed Mr Davis that he wonld receive commissioners from any influential in rebellion to confer upon terms of Peace for our common and Mr Blair waa directed to state to Mr Dai is that those words to bis expression about the two io which Mr Davis of course that so un- it I All of which was duly endorsed on it of Lincoln's own letter In ance of tbn above correspondence Mr Davis appointed three commissioners nnd placed at the head of the commission a gentleman who hid up to the beginning of iho war withstood tho current of opinion in his own section anil i to and spoke for tho Union and who was at the head of the Peace aad Onion party of the South and was the second officer of the Confederate ment Upon their arrival in Grant's lines Moj Eckhert who was Mr Lincoln's censor of the was dispatched with to meet the commissioners in lines and to require of them a aad consent to the one country sition of Mr Lincoln's letter as the sable of any negotiation whatever Tne subsequent acts of Messrs Lincoln and Seward clearly reveal what was their in this demand thus made Had they ed afterward any disposition to negotiate a Peace on just and fair terms it might have been assumed that this extraordinary caution was some laudable or estra timorous and jealous motive In any evert it would have betrayed at least a jealousy or want o trust which was wholly inauspicious to any hopeful result Ia the light of what has sub- sequently transpired it can be attributed only to two motives of the low cunning and which peculiarly characterize the expectation that the formal rejection would enable them to stimulate and consoli data tha North in war and in support of their extreme measures of violence and the second that if it were assented to which was deemed improbable not by them that then that assent might be used abroad to Impair standing among foreign Mr Seward has actually sought to make tte latter use of it by immediately sending his version of the affair to Mr Adams In their reply the confederate ers sought to escape that dilemma while substantially adopted tho terms by their readiness to agree upon any terms of Peace which wero net inconsistent with tho principles of self government and popular Major Eckhert Mr Lincoln's agent by him instructed rejected this proposition as unsatisfactory and To as tlie pa Alexander Hamilton of New York one of tbe principal writers adoption of Iho Constitution known as ho Federalist End at a later period the first

of State under and the third President of the United States through whose influence the ten ments t Constitution known as the of were adopted and by Mr his successor in the Presidential chair and the other principal writer of the same volume of papers known as th Federalist We propose oa this question of State sovereignty the adoption of the and after to cite the authority of the leaflet of tbe Federal parly In the Federalist Dawson's edition p we find Mr Hamilton before the Constitution asserting that Governments ORIGINAL are with COMPLETE Again at page 567 he says It is inherent in the nature of sovereignty not to be amenable to the suit of an individual without its consent This js the sense and the it mw enjoyed Slate at the there is a of this immunity in tho plan of the convention which formed and th bUU jj the it mil remain the But if adoption by the States of the had been designed or was understood to strip from tbe States this their original sovereignty it would of course have deprived them also by that very act and out any surrender of this very immunity which Mr Hamilton tells us will remein with the States Tho States retain their original rights of as far as they Dot delegated them exclusively and expressly to the Federal But Mr Hamilton has not left us merely to such an Inference as to the continuing and remaining original sovereignty of the At page 199 he is even more direct and ex elicit on this An consolidation of States into one national sovereignty would imply an entire subordination of tno parts and whatever powers might remain in them would be altogether d Bat as the plan the aims only at apart the Stale Governments clearly retain all the rights of which they had before and which wera not by that act exclusively delegated to tbe United States It fellows therefore that any federal ity which denies the absolute original of the States as to any powe the throat It tells that when moves with its Congress and its it will if U pleases

to recall Us the proposed conference the administration agents and arrest when it was compelled by Grant's specific and definite telegrams to proceed further and by a lawless and unwarranted dictation

common country on terms consistent with the of free government and popular if we wonld arrive at Pence by any other paths those of debt taxation and carnage it is well to enquire at least what are the principles on which our own once free ment OT governments were based And on this head we do aot propose to discuss any theories of our own or to dogmatize against tho revolutionary theories or crude tions of onr opponents but to cite the ity of the men who were alike tbe trainers of oar State and Federal Constitutions and to able advocacy and exposition of the latter its adoption by tbe States is due STATS rst of these principles which we DOW propose to discuss Is one which Mr Lincoln has seen fit in the solemn form of a message to repudiate It is his will to consider the States as mere dependents and creatures of the Federal authority deriving their authority from and wholly subordinate to tho Government It is the habit of the more rash and ignorant of his partizans to deride and scoff at and malign ths idea of the original or otherwise of the States Bad to compare thorn as to their rights with other mere municipal creations of a sovereign power If the latter theory be thp true which our institutions are based theu it dent that the Reporters of Stale sovereignty and State rights are revolutionists and Hnt if the same be wholly wrong then it is that its are under pre- tence of supporting onr really nipping its and aiming at Us and should themselves be and hurled from power TEE SOVEREIGNTY Thoro were in the ns later days of the Republic two in that day thera was no party which denied either tho existence of tbe States as prior to that of the Federal nor their original nor their sovereignty either in ths first are not the Federal Government is aiming at the overthrow of our government and so far as it enacts inch a de- nial or attempts to put it in practice is nnd worthy of resistance not by all the real supporters of the They whether in power or out are alone striking at the vitals and seeking the of the government at page 64 Mr Hamilton further remarkable Mr The proposed Constitution so far from im- plying an abolition of Stale governments makes them constitute parts of tbe National by allowing them a direct representa lion in the Senate and leaves in their posses sion certain exclusive IMPORTANT OF PC This language again ia Hamilton does not assort that the proposed Constitution gives to the States any original power or any derivative power He it their possession certain exclusive and very important portions of sovereign er This is the same idea of Stale sovereignty original and from the Federal and Constitution which we have where cited in a still more clear expression THE REVOLUTION Sow when a party io in power claiming aright for the majority without regard to the will of a people of a Stale or States to rule in all cases whatsoever ana denying all ty to a State and demanding unlimited or un- conditional any one wonder there
