' ' RALEIGH t FRIDAY. JUflfi 19, 1863.' Vol,?ZXIX.No. 26. . -The case of the Editor of toe Standard stands oat in the history of this war as more pre-eminently in consistent than that of any public-man South or Norrl)vv'i;;; ;;..-.; '; . 'Assertionre one thing;, and proof U another The Sejfitter has. furnished no proof of our inconsis tency. t Our conriej based as it is on principle, has been uniform from, the very. begtnniBg of the .troubles now upon the country. We have always denied the right of a State to secede from the former government, except in the event of. a, M deliberate, palpable, and dangerous infraction ot the Constitu tion." Because we were a true friend of the South because we foresaw the devastation and rain which would result from secession, andjbecause no " de liberate,' palpable, and dangerous infraction of the Constitution" hd taken, clade we opposed the se- we opposed the se- f cession or tne cotton states, as the Editor ol the Heg- uter did ; but when, as the result of that secession and of the proclamation of Lincoln, in April, 1861, no other alternative was left to North-Carolina but to fight the South or the North, we chose the lat ter, and therefore advocated and voted for the act of separation. Is there any inconsistency in that? We have , since advocated a vigorous prosecution of the war, nd have sustained -the government in all constitutional measures to that end. - It is not our fault, nor the fault of those with whom we act, that the war has not been vigorously prosecuted. The most magnificent resources any people' ever had with which to commence and carry on a revolution, have been, to a large extent, misapplied and wasted ; and the enemy has Bteadily gained upon as from the first Every position he takes, he holds. If our forces defeat bim, as they nearly always do, no ad vantage is taken of the victory, but both Bides pre pare again for battle, and the same bloody scenes are re-enacted with no definite result The people , of both sections are tired of the war, and desire peace. We desire it on terms honorable to our own section, and we cannot expect it on terms dishonor able to the other section. We believe in fighting as long as we are invaded, and in driving- the enemy from our soil in taking prompt advantage of such victories as we achieve, not in invading the enemy's country, for we are not strong enough for that, but in dislodging him from l)is positions on-our own soil ; but while we believe in this policy, as the best and only policy for the present, we also hold that the friends of peace in both sections should give utter ance to their views, and should thus pave the way for negotiations, to which both sections must at last come, as the only means for closing the con test If we could negotiate note, so much the bet ter. Thousands of valuable lives would be saved, and much devastation and ruin woula be stayed. Is there any inconsistency in this? What are we fighting for? Not for war surely, but for peace. We do not fight because we want to, but because we r Mtngi if the Southern cause should fail if the old govern, j ment should succeed in conquering, these States and in T-aUblSshiog iU authority vet-then by J force, the blame for it will not rest on the old Union ; men or Conservatives of NorthCJftrolin.."They j have done and are still doing their whole duty in this unfortunate str uggle, though they get no thanks Tot it from those for whom the EegUter speaks, whose . property and persons they are defending and shield-, ing with their blood. . . , Batthe22e0MeTsay8 we are "pre-eminently in consistent" on the subject of secession.'- We know we are a weak, erring mortal, like our neighbor, and that we frequently make mistakes in our calcu lations as to the condition of, and what is best for, the country but we refused to go with South-Carolina when she contemplated disunion in 1851, and we refused to go with her, as the Regit Ur did in 1860, until forced to do. so. We not only admit this, bat we are proud of it In the Standard of July 23d, 1861, we said: "It is clear that a vast majority of the people oj South-Carolina have despaired of $e Union, and have abandoned al! hope of a return by the general gov ernment to the true, principles of the Constitution. We deplore this state of public opinion in that gal lant State : and if our voice could be beard by her people, and could have any effect, if beard, we would appeal to them in the kindest and most affectionate terms to pause in their course. Their interests are the interests in common of the people of all the slaveholdingr States: and the blow which is intend ed to strike down South-Carolina, will not fall upon her head alone. Her cause is the cause of the ; South ; and her true policy is, therefore, not to sep arate herself, by her action, from the other, slave holding States. ' , - Should she secede by herself she will draw no State after her. Her sister slaveholding States will neither go with her, nor will they see her coerced and trampled down ; their judgment has been pro nounced, and they will not reverse it The cause for secession, at -this time is not sufficient ; it may be, in the course of a few fears, or the Union may live on, according to the Constitution, gathering new States within its folds- and adding new lustre to the common flag." -: . These were our views in 185 L ' Is there .any material difference between them and those we held in I860? We think not But the Regitter charges others with " inconsistency t" What has been the course of that paper t In December, 1860, it de clared that the dissolution of the Union for any ectute would be "fraught with woes unutterable and innumerable 7 that. Mr. Lincoln would not commit aggressions upon the South, but ought to be submitted to as ft constitutionally-elented Presi dentthat South-Carolina had no special claims to the confidence or respect of our people and that she ought to be " resisted ''that is, coerced if necessary in her attempt to "dragoon? North Carolina into treason ftndVcivil war."; 'Himt how ever, and for some time past, the Regitter has been an ultra South-Carolina sheet, and has denounced every one as false and disloyal to .his section who opold not, with it, approve and. laud the course of that Stated Let the Editor and his friends think of his present position jlnd views, and then read the following and blash.

' Who can read the synopsis of GoVi Gist's message which we publish to day with out pronouncing it a most arrogant production ; But let us say to those who desire that this State shall secede, why not await the operation of things now in progress at the North f The tone of the Northern press, of such papers, for instance, as the New York Time, a very able freesoii paper, is now undergoing a marked change, for the better, and we have the strongest hope that in short time, the obnoxious personal liberty bills -will be stricken from the statute books of the States which have en-. acted them. When this his been done, the South ' will not have the slightest cause of complaint, against the North, for we have the strongest rea sons for believing that Lincoln's administration will not be aggressive upon the South. Why not, then, pause, before madly doing that which cannot be undone f For when once the dissolution of the Union, has been effected, its reconstruction will never be Beep, by even the most remote genera tions. This generation will have entailed upon their posterity a legacy of woes unutterable and innumerable. We implore the Legislature of this heretofore conservative old State not to be led away at this terrible crisis, either by passion or popular slamor, for there are times when the people, gen erally right, are made the victims of artful and un scrupulous demagogues. This is a lesson which ftll history teaches us. For God's sake let as profit by it . Jndre Magrath's Decision. -We publish below the opinion of Judge Magrath, . of South-Carolina, in the matter of Leopold Cohn, in which he decides where persons liable to military duty under the conscription acts passed by the Con federate .Congress, have placed substitutes in the army, such persons are not liable, after such sub stitution, to perform further military duty. Judge i r -.w- , in February last Judge M..has the reputation of being ft learned lawyer and -an able and upright Judge. We. have not heard that either the sound ness of kit opinion or "his loyalty has been ques tioned at Richmond; nor have we heard of any conflict gotten .up by Mr. Secretary Seddon with the Governor of South-Carolina, in opposition to this opinion of Judge M. Recently, Chief Justice Pearson and other Judges in this State have made similar decisions, and have discharged citizens un lawfully arrested by order of the Secretary of War; and these decisions, by Judges in this State, have been made not only the ground of interference by .the Secretary with the rights and duties of oar Judges, bat oar judiciary, oar Governor, and the sovereignty of the State have been disregarded and insulted by the re arrest, by order of the Secretary, of citizens thus discharged. ' But we have no room to-day for any extended remarks suggested by this decision. We may recur to the subject in our next Meanwhile we invite the attention of our readers to the" opinion which vre give below." . It is the last clause of the following section of General. Order No. 64, issued from the Adjutant and Inspector General's Office at Richmond, on the 8th of September last, that Judge Magrath adjudi cates void, and which he declares the Secretary of War had no power to make. This is the section referred to: - , "IL The reception of substitutes under eighteen years of age is hereby prohibited.

Whatever may b.utf&ctof the order jof the Sec f"? of War, eatfiig-the discharge of Xeoiwlo Cohn, there is nwbt of the power of Congress ::doBoJSB4KfW aotcon. cerning substitutes, it was competent for that body' - to repeat it, or to annul or qualify -the. discharges which had been obtained under it The permission by Congress id such cases, given to individual to substitute others for the performance of the milita ry service required of them, cannot be considered a contract between the government, which it may at soy time modify or extinguish And the like pow- tt is, in my opinion, vested in the President of the Confederate States. As commander-in-chief of the army, unless restrained by the action of Congress, he may, upon consideration of nublic neeemitv. mil pon those to perform military service who have yvca uecureu uaue to this duty, but have been ex cused from Or indulged in its exercise. ' - But that which distinguishes this case,' is (hat Congress has. delegated to an officer of the Govern ment, the Secretary of War, the power to prescribe the regulations under which substitutes may. be received. The regulations have been prescribed, the substitutes have been received under them, and the question in the case fa, whether the Secretary of War hasthesame controlling power ever the matter as belongs to Congress or could be exercised by the President The question appears to be thus, presented, because it cannot be maintained that any. Act -of Congress has been passed, destroying the privilege which has been secured by thosfe who have had substitutes accepted for them. Nor is there any order of the President, by him directly made calling into military service those who have been thus exempted. N&r is the order of the Secretary of War cancelling discharges heretofore granted, to be referred to any other source for its authority than the 8th Section of the act approved 16th April, 1862. The Secretary of War having acted in the matter under the direct authority of this act, will be ' presumed to Have continued the exercise of his power under the same source. I do not consider the act approved 27th Septem ber, 1862, as requiring or supporting the order of the Secretary of War, which avoids a discbarge pro perly obtained, because a substitute, when accepted, not liable to military service, may subsequently become so by the provision of another act If the act or 37tn September, 1862, was intended to in validate the dischar whiA h.A i."r.,iw byucomP,iance wj the regufations pre- 1 scribed' by the Secretary of War, it is reasonable to suppose that its language would in some manner have conveyed, that purpose. Bat when it excepts fu I4n . 1 . - . . uvui ,u upcrmuons taose wno are legally exempted - . . . . ... . ... . -vuipw uua inn uiuiuirjr service, uj uunjr tu uo one ot tnat class wno are excepted from the ope ratio of the act And if Congress, by a new act, called into service those who were not liable under he former act, it could operate only on those who. had not yet undertaken to render military service. .If one had been al.eady enrolled and mustered in for three years unless the war shall have sooner ended, it is not to be supposed that he would be discharged for the purpose of be ing again enrolled and mustered in for the same term. There fa no doubt that one,, although not embraced in the terms of the act approved the 16th of April, 1862, nevertheless could by voluntary en gagement, impose upon himself the same oblige- - tions of military service as if he were called out un-' dor that act If by a subsequent act he became in cluded in its provisions, both acts contemplating the same service, he would not be considered among those who were called forth by that subsequent act He had, by his own engagement, consented to be considered as one who had been legally called. He -had been accepted, and in 'that was recognized as one who had been properly called. To Bay that he was subject to a call for military service, while he was in the actual discharge of that service to which he had been presumptively already called, would seem to involve the, question of actual and pro& pective liability in a great deal of confusion. ... The act of the 27th September, 1862, cannot be considered as sustaining tho construction, that a substitute wjthin the ages which it makes subject to the call of the military service is, by its opera tion, prevented from continuing to be, as he was when-accepted, sjegal substitute under the act of. the 16th April, 1862. If the act of Congress then does not require that construction which is Bet forth in General Orders, No. 64, dated 8th September, 1862, in these words, " a substitute-becoming liable to conscription ' renders his principal also liable un less exempt on other grounds j" and if no special " order of the President has been issued to the same effect, it only remains to inquire whether,-Under the 9th section of the act approved 16th April, 1862, the secretary of War was authorized to declare, by the General Orders No. 64, that for the cause there stated the-liability of the principal for -military should be renewed.- " That the power given to the Secretary of War to make regulations for the admission of substitutes, would authorize him to modify these regulations according to his convictions 6f expediency, will not. be disputed. But that such a power can be exer cised so as to affect one who, having complied with ' established regulations, has -thereupon been disr charged, may well be doubted.' Retrospective legis lation having retro active, operation, is a recognized, but very high power of government - When exer cised, it is always upon the ground of some manifest public policy. That Congress intended to admit, ' in. certain" cases, the privilege of 'substitution, fa dear. That it could take away that privilege by - retrospective legislation, is equally clear. That its. : delegation to the Secretary -of War of the power to make regulations concerning substitutes, would, authorize that officer, if he had considered it noces : aery, to insert in the discharge, .the condition that ; it by subsequent legislation, the case of the propos ed substitute was embraced, the substitution would be avoided, and the discharge inoperative, is also clear. Bat that without the insertion or expres sion of any such condition, Congress intended to comer un same men power ox legislation, wuicn it .possessed, so that the Secretary of War could avoid a discharge, Which he had granted upon his accep .tance of a substitute, cannot be maintained. ;: - The orders of the Secretary of War, moreover, have expressly, declared' the cases in which the ex . emption of the pincipal procured by the acceptance of his substitule,-may be caneelled. . If fraud or mistake he- discovered, the exemption . ceases. :The expression Of these two, as the cases in which exemptions would cease must have been from abun dant caution. If not expressed, the same conse- quenee wowd have resulted upon the discovery of either. - But tbe expression or these is significant of the fact that, it was then considered, except in snch eases, tha tdiacharim. if Tkirlv abtained. was eonolosive so far as the Secretary of ar, was i coocerned.r ' -. .- . ,-; ; - -v ,..
