THE JOURNAL. I JOHN KERSHUW, PKOPMKTOK. .? * = 1 # ( AMHEN, SEPTEMBER 4, 1878. jrif \V. II. H. Workman*, Esq., i-s author ized to receipt for monies due the Camden Journal. ? The Journal?A Xew \ olume. With this issue we commence a new vol-j uine, and we avail ourselves of the occasion ! to thank our patrons anew tor tneir pasi iavor? | and to invite the support of those who have j heretofore failed to contribute to the main- ! tainanoe of this weekly chronicler of passing J events. We are pleased to know that the ; JOURNAL is admitted into a number of the best families in the community, and is sought with eager interest hj many persons at adis- i tance, who, forced to follow fortune in other ' lands, still turn with more than their fir I affection towards their native hills alH plains. It will continue to l?e our chief aim in its conduct to inako the paper worthy of the support of all good citizens. Nothing shall be admitted into its columns that savors of license, nothing that will offend against religion, morality or a pure taste, and nothing that can minister to the unwholesome cravings for sensational excitement of late so unhappily stimulated by many newspapers. In short, the Journal will aim only at be- j coming au interesting family and business paper, tbat may be read by all with pleasure and by none with injury to morals or tasio. . Iu politics, we shall advocate, as heretofore, all measures that iu our judgement will promote (he public interests, adhering to those principles of constitutional liberty always contended for in this 'paper, so far as may bo compatible with the welfare of the people under the existing condition of affairs. We shall defend and justify the great struggle through which we sought to maintain our rights under the Constitution. Keeoguizing what has been irrevocably lost, we shall seek to work out under existing system? the security of our liberties and the safety and welfare of the people, in a return to a strict construction ot tho Constitution?an honest and economical administration of government?a removal of all undue restraints and burthens upon industry and property?a ^ pure and enlightened administration of justice and a strict accountability of nil public servants. Having these ends always in view, and recognizing how vain and futile the strusrcrle must be while corruption runs riot in all departments of the govern men t, State and Federal, we shall feel ourselves at liberty, in the first place, to advocate ail proper measures to remove fhis fundamental harrier to all wholesome progress, however seemingly opposed to the principles we have announcedWe make this reservation because wo can see but little probability of a purification of the political cess-pool by any normal process j of action, and reulizo the possibility that re- , lief way on v be found bypassing through ' uiauv phases, it may be, into anarchy or C'qcsarism. Meanwhile, we shall counsel moderation, patience and forbearance, and a , wise abstention from political agitations | that can result in no pot. ibl<- good to our , own people. When the time comes that j wo may rally our forces with a ghost of a i . chance for victory, we trust the Journal j may be found atnono the foremost to sound the bugle call to duty. Mr. I?u\in* Speech. We publish to-day what purports to be an authentic report nf the few remarks made by Mr. Davis upon his recent reception by the Southern Historical Convention. It. will be J found that the first account; received totally perverted the language and meaning of the speaker. There is really nothing in it to merit the harsh and tso far as the Southern papers are concerned) unseemly comments ; that have been made upou it. There are enough to censure his best deeds, and his I sufferings in the Southern Cause should suffice with Southern poop'.o to procure ci n donations for his greatest errors. W. T. Slier num. Tbi* representative soldier of the most civilized and enlightened Christian government, declares upon oath, as follow*: ' if I It'fi made itf> my mint/ In burn t'u uinitio / would have burn?tl i> withno mori Ifetling than I would a common prairie doq vilUi'ft. This i.* just about what wo thought, but certainly never oxpecled s . frank an admission. Chancellor Kent, in his oornmeritukw. 7 | says. ' Valid condemns very strongly the spoliation of a country without palpable necessity, and he speaks with a just indignation of the burning of the Palatinate by Turcr.ne, under the cruel instructions of Louvois, the war minister of ls>ui XI\ ? ? * ? ff the conqueror goes beyond these limits wantonly, or when u is nut cleat K indbje ii- ( sable t<> the ju.-t purposes of war. and seizes property of pacific persons for (he sake of j gain and destroys private dwelling* or pil N 'lie edifice* devoted to civil purposes only; ! or niak'-s war upon monuments of art and hi id I of ta-fe he violate- fbo modern mages of war, and is sure to meet with indignant resentment and to be held up to the general scorn and detestation of the world." j Such are the opinions of enlightened ju- j rists and civilians upon tiie warfare adopted by Sherman, as attested by the desolation} thSt tracked his progress through South Carolina. We are content to leave the General where they have consigned him. Morton. BIInn A Co.. vs. *k L. Hogc. (>oni|?troller The five bonds set up in the five petitions are, each, for the sum of $1,000, and are of the following classes : That in petition No. 1, issued under an act entitled "an act to authorize a loan to redeem the obligations known as the bills receivable of the State of South Carolina," passed August 2b', 1863, (14 Stat. 17;) that in petition No. 2, issued under an act entitled "an act iu miuiun? ? State loan to pay iuterest on the public debt," passed August 20, 1808, (14 Stat. 18;) that in petition No. 3, issued under an act entitled "an act to to authorize a loan for the relief of the treasury." passed February 17, 18G9, (14 Sat. 182;) that in petition No. 4, issued under an act entitled "an act to provide for the appointment of a laud commissioner, and to define his powers and duties," passed March 27, 1809, (14 Stat. 275;) and that in petition No. 5. issued under an act entitled "an act to provide for the appointment of a land commissioner, and to define his powers and duties, and for other purposes." passed March 1; 1870, (14 Stat. 385.) To enforce the assessment of taxes to pay the interest on those bonds was the object of the suits. The following objections we're 'made to the relief sougfit. First, that the acts under which the bonds were issued, were unconstitutional. As to two of them because they did not express their purpose in their titles, as required by the constitution. As to all of them because while they purported to create debts they did not levy a tax annually, .sufficient to pay the interest upon such debts. As to Nos: 3, 4 and 5, because they were not passed by a constitutional majority of two-thirds, -as required by the constitution for tho passage of any act creating a debt. The Court decides against the validity of the objections. On the first point, that the main purpose of the acts was sufficiently specified in their titles. On tho second, that the acts did contain provisioqs for a levy of the required tax, and on the third, that there being a quorum of members present, it only required a majority of twothirds of the members present to pass an act creating a debt. The next objections were to the validity of t he bopdf$ As to tho bonds set forth i* petition* in Nos. 1, 2 and 3. fieean.se they were required by the act under which they wert issued, to be sold at the highest market r- L-'L~ c :-l ir. nitf n< price Uy liiL* liiidiuuti u^iia nt ntu vi^ vi New York and not less than at a price to b( fixed by the Governor, Attorney-Genera! and Treasurer, and they were not sold it conformity with these provisions. To this the Court answers that the validating act passed March *13, 1872, cured the defects and wade the l?onds good. To this it was again objected that, the validating act was uncon stitutiooa), because the purpose of it was ti make that a debt, whi?h. without it. was uc debt, and therefore it required a two third: vote to pass it. and it did not receive sutli vote. But the Court declared that the pur po>c of the art was not to create a new debt, but to waive certai^i irregularities which might otherwise have Ijpen urged against the liability of the State in respect of certain bonds that had been made by proper con"titntional enactments. And further, that the Legislature had authority to dispose ol the bonds in the manner in which they wore disposed of. and though the mode adopted was not valid for want of authority, yet it became so when ratified by the Yalidaty^g Act, and such validity was by familiar principles of law referred back to the time ol the original transaction. An objection was also taken that a large portion of the bonds issued under the acts 11 regard to the land commission of the class of bonds mentioned in the petitions Nos. 4 and 5, had been returned to the treasury upon the substitution of other bonds of the State, and that the bonds so returned had been re issued without warrant of law, but inasmuch a* it was not averred that the bonds in suit were of those illegally issued, the Court did not consider the question as raised in the case. The remaining points were whoHy technical and have no general interest. As the press is an organ of public opinion and therefore sits in judgment upon the judgment of Courts, evon thoso termed Supreme, we venture to record our Opinion of tho dceison. In the main, the opinion is one that indicates lahor and thought, and certainly is supported by most ingenius ren soiling, though not ahounding in very profound' discussions of principles of eonstitu tional law. Though literal, the judgment is satisf aetory as to mo-t of the points raised We are obliged to say that the decision of the Court upon the \ ulidutihg \et is so tin satisfactory to our mind a< t<> want even a plausible sophistry to support it 'I lie acts under which tin bonds were is sned created a debt only if dispo. cd of as therein required. The l.? gialatnie fully aware of the necessity pi tecleetod, the Slate from fraud by imposing a condition without the performance of which there na to he no debt This act re.|iur< d to he p.e cd by h majority of two thirds. Honda wore issued 1 | and disposed of in violation of that condition- j sir | and the only consideration obtained for them j otl was derived by the very parties against whose j fnl . fraud it was the very purpose of the act ouf lo guard the public. At this* point all ad- fee mit there was no debt upon the State by sec reason of thts transaction. The bonds hav- lit< ing been disposed" of in violation of the con- bo: dition imposed by the act which authorized spe them, were absolutely void and had ncyer nrr a legal existence. There being no swell ha debt contracted by the Slate, the Validating in; Act was devised and passed, seeking t > make ??' or create a debt out of a combination of cireumstanees* which, as we have seen, did not ve charge the State with a liability. To create ih a debt, under the constitiuon, an acr must j"be passed by a two-thirds majority, and the its Validating Aet was passed by no such majority. Can anything be plainer than that it was inadequate to charge the State with a debt in respect of these bonds? One other criticism we think the opinion is amenable to, in common with most of the ^ judicial decisions of late years. It is too 14 much the argument of a lawyer to sustain a di particular view. Onr idea of the judgment va of a Court is to weigh carefully each argu- ws mcnt pro and con. and to satisfy the mind of loi the reader that the result is fairly in favor fh of the oue side nfter the other has really been se fairly presented to the mind of the Court.? w: However unbiassed a tribunal may be in arriving at a decision, if the argument sustaining such impartial judgment he given chiefly :i' from the one side, the impression made upon 1 ' the mind is not so satisfactory. 01 st It may be added fhat the judgment only ^ ' affects directly the identical bonds sued on, kit it is difficult to conceive how the Comp.--Iil-n 1 L? ?i ?roiier-*jftMierai uuu uuojr me uwuumc ui inw Court in respect to these bonds alone. We m presume he will direct an assessment to co- w ver the interest on all the bonds of the same class. Meanwhile wc cannot believ-* that ^ such tax will be paid by the people without . a much more completo investigation of the bi debts p'roposed to be paid than we have had *( in this case..

Speech of Ex-President Davis. From the Chester Reporter. A meeting of the Southern Historical invention was held at the Montgomery hifce Sulphur Springs, Virginia, on the th instant, which was largely attended by Uingnished Confederate officers from the rious Southern States. South Carolina is represented by Major-General M. C. Butr and Major 0. H. Suber. The object of is convention was to inaugurate measures to cure a truthful history to*be.written of the \r between the North and the South and the causes that led thereto. On Monday, e 10th instant. ex-President Davis was form* ly presented to the convention by admiral mures. Chairman of the Reception Coniittec, and was received by the abdience andiugaud with prolonged applause. . The ichmond Dispatch gives tbo .following ac)nnt of the subsequent proceedings: Governor Letcher said: "As the organ f this convention it is my plcaSuro as well as iy duty, Mr. Davis, to give' you a hearty el conic?a yclcome to the honors, the aflecons and hospitalities of Virginia." Mr. Davis responded i "I am deeply rnnkful for your kind welcome. I feel at ouie in Virginia. She gave her bosom to c torn by all the horrors of war, and her >ns and hor treasure for the cause, and 1 ok upon het mountains in their peaceful randcur. her verdant vales and material ealth; yet, above all, her men excel her >il. and hor wouion excel her men. . Fresh i my memory is the devotion and self-sacrifice [' her noble women. When tho Shenandoah ailov was laid waste the fair women, whose ands had never known an hour's toil, laborJ for the support and comfort of the nrmy. am most happy to know tho cause- for hich we have convcucd. Much time lias assed away \ many of tho participants have een oa-Ued to their fathers. It is hard for lose whose hearts were in the cause to think f (hose days without feeling their mother's illness coming to their eyes. We have boon heated rather than conquered, and could c have fmresc.-u the results of the surrender c would ^bave been free to day. The time nfi come Tor us to vindicate the trnth for tho ike of -the unrecorded dead who fought lbr ruth and died in a patriotic cause. These waps of history do ns injustice. We must nllcot the material for the future historian, t may have been well to wait until passion ud feeling should subside, hut wo should doiv mi longer. Ho we not see decadence in II that makes a people great and happy? 'herefore the higher duty on us. J have pceived a letter from a gentleman in las-qenusctts in which he wrote: -Our eople owe you a debt of gratitude fur mainlining those principles of constitutional horty mi which the satoty oi me country epend? ami which would have been lott ight of but foryonr struggle.*" Eadie.?, I have often said in you was my reatest hope for the future of our country, have never seen a Southern rfomaii who ad been rfcnmtructed. The men of this* ay may yield the principles for which they intended, hut the children who succeed join will cherish and perpetuate them. "tleiitleinen of the society, may your steps ver be onward and upward. I urge you to II diligence and fidelity. You must.succeed ith thegrand old Early at.your bead, whose rave heart never failed or faltered, and who ad the manliness, whether in a tiireigu land r on his native soil, to assert the glorious rinciple.s for which he so nobly struggled.'' Mr. I hi vis took his scat amid great nplause. lie spoke with all his accustomed race and elegance, and while lie showed cop feeling he uttered no seiitiumut of lioality to thegovernineut, but only evinced a eep and earnest devotion to constitutional rinciple:. ?- . 111 .'l I !
