THE WUK1U CAKOIJKA tflAHDARD; WEDNKSDAV. JUNE 1,? 1864. -- REMABK8 OF MR. CHWSOM, - - ' Ot GRAKVILLB, . " - Upon the adoption "of the Majority Resolutions in relation . to uaoeas uorpvs, n jmjwx vj Common, Wednesday, May 25, 1604. - ' Mr. Grissom sai.l, (hat we "were .engaged m a great Btmgglc for national independence, civil free-. , dom, and constitutional liberty; - . To this struggle for these principles the great re sources of the country and the people, .both as to blood and treasure, have been devoted with a unan imity and enthusiasm hitherto unparalleled in the , history of ihe world. ' The inauguration of this great contest originated not in opposition, on the part of the people, to the government and Constitution of the old Union, for they were attached to both, but because their con stitational rights, were invaded by a section having control of the administration of public afiairs. it fa a contest then for f re&lorn as well as inde pendence. ' .With this declared view of the charac ter tf the contest our people raised the flag of na--tional independence, and our armies went to battle for its defence and triumph. The history of the dismemberment of nations may be searched through all time in' vain for a parallel case, in which pop ular sentiment sustained, with so much unanimity, the proposed separation. Every rank and class and condition in life, with every, shade of partisan Views and political opinions, acquiesced in the move- ; went and sustained the cause; Such was the unan- J ' imity of public sentiment that North Carolina re sumed her sovereignity in open Convention, with-' oat a dissenting voice, and the people with one - accord set to work to make good this solemn de claration. The laborer quit the plough, the me- . chanic his workshop, tho merchant his counting " room, the student his academy, the editor his sanc tum, the old man gave op with tearful but patriotic cheerfulness his last boy, whom he cherished as his ..- only comfort and support, 4"d the widowed mother released from her fond, embrace one by one her' sons, until she stood like the lifeless trunk of the tree of the forest, leafless and limbless. Such was the ardor, the unanimity and enthusiasm, with which North CaroHniaos rushed to the conflict for : national independence and civil freedom, long be ' fore conscription, unnecessary so far as she is con ' corned, was thought of or resorted to. Such was the patriotism and public spirit of her citizens and . their devotion to these great principles, that from every town and district and. neighborhood in the State, EoWiers like "armed men from the teeth of Cadmus" sprang forth with so much rapidity that in a few months North-Carolina had raised, equip-. d, and tendered seventy odd regiments to the Con federacy. Of the bearing of these troops in all their positions it would be an act of supererogation to speak. Their quiet and orderly conduct in camp, and their gallantry and daring in the field have wrung fj oia popular sentiment the just meed of praise. They have rallied around the standard of . their country with more than Spartan courage. They have endured privations and sufferings with--ut complaint, met danger and death without falter ing, and snatched victory from the jaws ot defeat without invidious triumph. They have been pa tient in suffering, defiant in danger, modest in vic- . tory. They have stood like a wall of bayonets and -of fire around the beleagured capital of the Confed .eracy and driven back the cruel invaders discom :titd. Death has held no carnival and spread r.o feast to which North-Carolinians have not been invi ted guests. Tliey have crowded its path as if it were the highway to festivity and mirth. Tbeir banes bleach and their blood enriches every battle-field from Bethel to those now pending. In the great struggle now pending, whatever may be thought of others, it may be asked with proprie ty, wherein has North Carolina ever failed to do . her duty ? In its very inauguration it is true North Carolina hesitated about leaving the Union for then existing causes. She- was anxious to avert this difficulty without bloodshed, upon honorable terms guaranteeing her constitutional rights. She thought it could be d me. She was slow to plunge the country into the horrors of what she knew would be such a desolating war, as would spread a pall over ihe'wiidie land and bring mourning into every fam ily rendering hundreds of thousands of hearth stones desolate filling the land with maimed and disabled, with widows and orphans and squalid poverty crowding her poorhouses and almshouses sacrific- ing hundreds of thousands of lives and hundreds of millions ot treasure, until at least she had exhaust ed all honorable efforts to obtain her constitutional rights by other means. But when she linked her . destiny with her sister Southern States, from that time till now, she has done her duty and her whole duty.- Let history past and present speak.- Let justice be done and no North Carolinnn will be ashamed. Bat notwithstanding all this there are those even in high phces who seem studious in heaping insult and injury upon her. Why is it so T What are the causes? Why is she degraded and outraged in so many ways f In what action of her :. people or her authorities is there just cause for sus pecting her fidelity on the part ot the friends of the - administration ? . Is it because she complains of her neglect that her loyalty is impeached and her fair - name traduced by those whom, in the innocence of her confidence, she has trusted and honored and whose pride and pleasure it should be to "cherish, protect and defend her f " Can it be treason for ' North-Caroliaian3 to claim that she is a peer among - her Southern 'sisters? Is it no cause, that her - - treasure has been so freely expended in the com ' ' mon defence and the blood of tier braves so freely shed to enrich the soil of other States, that she - should be considered worthy of equal honor? Can " it be considered unreasonable in North-Carolinians to' insist that they have men of capacity, intelli ' gence and patriotism sufficient to Mil the various offices in the military departments of their, own ' State, to administer to the sick and wounded .and - dying in the hospitals and in the fields, and to lead their own soldiers to battle and to victory ? Must '-- integrity, ability and loyalty forever be imported 'from other States? Will not one hundred thou sand brave hearts active and bouyant in life, suffer ing and writhing with wounds, or still and cold in death, satisfy the administration and Congress at ' ' Richmond that North-Carolina is true, and convince them that there is no necessity for legislating on hor account by the passage of such extreme arid ' .dangerous measures to civd liberty as the'suspen ' sion of the writ "ot habe,u corpus t '- Can it be considered unreasonable for a law-lov-' in j and Uw abiding people to insist that the great " - landmarks of freedom and constitutional right, the 'palladium of civil liberty and the preserving charm 'of popular government shall be ignored by thoir '- public servants and that the majesty of her laws 'hH -not be insulted by every official who happens ' to bo r. ; DssinaBtUeDriefantboritr" . , 1 There are circumstances amounting almost to t . earinty, that the suspension of the writ of habeas " eorpus was intended by its originators and authors, mar esneols'lv to Danish, mortifv end AtumAa f Trorth-Carolina.

" upon what food had these our Caesars led that they bad grown so great ? - We thought they J were our servants bow did uev.pecome our mas ters? How came this sudden, unexpected aad ex' traordinary ''change, over the ;'pirit' of their dream?" How came the footsteps of Congress men so suddenly diverted from the 'pathway ef free dom to the goal of tyranny ? How came the Ood dess of Liberty, with her golden tresses disheveled and torn, to lie down, in the very midst of her de votees, in the lecherous embrace of the cloven footed satyr of despotism ? - .... There is a rumor extensively circulated all over North-Carolina and in other parts of the country, (I speak of it only as a rumor,) wh.ich. throws some light on this otherwise mysterious action of Con gress. It is said (with how much truth those who participated in the transaction well know) that a short time previous to the passage of the act sus pending this wilt, the President invited our Nortu Carolina delegation in Congress to-an interview, and read to them a long and laboriously written letter, from a citizen of North-Carolina, to which he seem ed to attach full faith and credit, advising him (the President) that there was a wide spread feeling of disloyalty and treason in North Carolina that a majority of her people meditated dangerous' de-, signsthat Conservative politicians had hemmed in and ditched around Gov. Vance and left him high and dry, and urging the President to assume extraordinary powers and take speedy and efficient measures to overawe and silence the people. To their everlasting personal and political shame, ru mor says that several inera'ierJ of. Congress con firmed the declarations of this letter-writer, and stated to the President that not only their own im meditato districts were disloyal but , that there was a majority of not less than thirty thousand in the State of the same sentiment I Rumor has it that but oie of o jt Senators (who for the short time he was there woa for . himself imperishable renown as a patriot and statesman,) and but two or three Representatives had the man liness and independence to confront and denounce the slanderers and Inducers of the. State that hd honored them, and the constituents who confided in them. If there is any class in the community who have garnered for themselves storehouses full of political infamy and will transmit with their ntmes a rich inheritance of political ignominy, it is those of our own citizens, whether in pla- or in private, who from, disappointed ambition, party prejud:ce or truckling sobservieacy, so far forget the patriotic instincts of even the savagJ races as to violate the sanctity of their own alts and the geen graves of their own sues, by slandering viUitj ing and lm peaching their own State the mother that gave tacm birth. " Tho' tbe scorner may sneer at and witling defame her. Our bearfcs swell wilh gladness whenever we naina her.'-' - I ask them why it is that North Carolina is a by word and synonyme for disloyalty among her Con federates? Why in some locilitio? the whole tribe ot hirelings from the lowest sycophant who eats his daily bread from his master's hand and does his bidding pro pretio, up to the gold laced giudy oligarch, whose occupation would be gone if tyran ny and oppression were to cease, al', ' Tray, Blanche and Sweetheart," unite in attemptirg to traduce her fiia nima and djtract from hsr well eirned, bloodstained laurels, "and with equal unanimity comuf&bd the suspension of the writ of habea cor pus. This class whether in Congress or out of it, whether in the btate or beyond its limits are North Carolina's enemies. They are doing her serious injury whether intended or not Toe memory of tbe humblest of her true and worthy citizens will be cherished and remembered when these traducers Lave gone down T the vile dost, from whence be rprun, Unwept, uauuu.rd and unhung." A never flitting ever accusing sense of justice will continually wnisper to their guilty consciences : li there nt some chosen corse. Some hidden vmguance in Uenven's araenal. Red with nncoaiinun wra;b, to bluat tbe men, Wud owe their greatne&s to their couutr'a ruin?" in reply to the argument of "necessity the country asks when and where is this encroach ment upon States' rights to.end. In the inaugura tion of this great struggle there were not want ing those gallant defenders and champions of these great principles every where, candidates for office and candidates for renown, who were loud in their denunciations of the general government for its en croachments upon States Rights and anxious to preuiptate afpflict for their maintainance, who are now tame and willing and quiet submissionists. We are engaged in a great and patriotic struggle for independence and freedom. Shall we sacrifice these principles among ourselves while gallantly defending them against invasion by others ? Is our devotion to these great landmarks less now than at the commencement of the war? Their unnecessa ry suspension is but the entering wedge to, military despotism, and contrary to the genius of free, gov ernment. The tendency of power is always to steal from the hands of tbe many to the fewIts march is stealthy and clandestime always under a false garb, most generally that of the tyrant's plea, " necessity.'" if it can be made recoociliable to the feelings and interests of tbe country to ac quiesce in this measure now, do you think we shall feel the same lively repugnance to it hereafter ? It has been truly said that no man ever became per fectly, wicked at once, and it may be afiiriued with equal propriety that a nation never booomes en slaved at once. Men. must be initiated by degrees and their repugnance gradually overcome. These laws form in the estimation of uiany great and good men a complete tyranny a tyranny of the most odious kind, because established undor the mark of liberty. Was the tyranny of Robespiere less in tolerable, oppressive or' oJlmn because inflicted in the name of the people, than a like tyranny in Tur key under the Grand Seignior ? Why Bh'ould we cool our zod or abate our. ardor for "republican principles ? Is it not fresh within the recollection of geotlemeu with what feelings of opposition and indignation the very liret advances of tyranny and oppression .were met in this State ? Who has for gotten what feelings were elicited by an official an nouncement of a politician in this State in 18S1 or 18(13, clothed with authority from the Secretary of war, catling upon our citizens to surrender up their private arms and weapons of domestic defence. under the penalty of seizure and confiscation? Ana bow the public heart rejoiced when Gov, Clark forbade its execution and protected the rights ol individuals by solemn proclamation i . But is ibis ail? - This very hall was the theatre ora scone, which will be recorded upon, tae4MMght eet pges of history. And whatever may be tne fate of civjl freedom in. this country wiil go down to posterity, a. theme of admiration, lone alter the names .or. toe authors or sympathizers . of the at tempted mischief shall have been despised or for gotten. I aHude . to the attempt to fasten test oath of loyalty, upon the public. We ail remember .bow tbe public mind was shocked at even these attempts on constutional and individual rights. But who can picture with what a storm of iodignatioa,and resistance, a violation of the most sacred and consecrated rights offtfreedom and citizenship as contained in the privileges- of habeas torpu, and the pursuit of industrial occupa tions without military restraints, would have been net by . that patriotic . body ? They - would have said that North-Carolina had given np her peace her wealth and her children but oean not surren der her soveignty, her liberty and her honor. - - K more than six hundred years jnnee th stur dy Barons of England, wrested from King John at Runnymede tbe great Charter of liberty, there have been, -guarantees -in British jurisprudence,' perve diog the very spirit of English laws jjnrl English customs, whet ever they, have gone, which have led so firmly to the establishment of the great princi ples of habeascorpus, as to stamp H a part of the mu nicipal Uw of tbe Anglo-saxon community.' ' - Without attempting an argument upon the un constitutionality of tbe suspension by the late act whichl think is clearly demonstrated by. Got. Brown, Vice President Stephens and Gov. .Vanr f in H mm aufuuuie message, uis 10 na oenf ecated as a matter fiolitkl policy. It is piaia to me that there is less necessity now for such a Treasure as this, than there might be even to tima 'of peace.

If neither of these who then can be, the object of so much, anxious solicitude. Why is the adminis tration, with sword of the- .nation in one hand and and the power in the other still "hungering and thirsting" for power? Let States Kights men an- Lswer, When was there ever before a revolution upon so gigantic a scale without internal disturbance ? Not a single conspiracy or ' rebellion, jrorth the name has been attempted. Scarcely show of opposi tion to. the administration, in its war policy, has been exhibited from any quarter.- The entire re sources of the country both, as to men and money have been freely laid at the feet of the Executive What more can ns askr Ut wnom can be com plain? But it may be said that this suspension of the privileges of the writ of habeas corpus affects only tbe disloyal and euilty. . Even if it were&oftbe principle is the same. .Even bad men should be tried and punished. Let it be remembered that at tacks upon the liberties of the' people are always made upon the vile and worthless. .- When prece dent is once established, in the case of bad men, who like pioneers eo before to smooth- the way. good men may tremble for their' safety. Under this suspension men are to be punished not because they are cuilty. but because there is no" means of proving them so. It regards, the entiraopolation of the country as fit to be placed, under, restraint But who are the disloyal and the guHty ? ' If rumor be true in the onihion of no in'conidera ble number of our deleiration in the late Congress, that class includes a majority of not less than thirty thousand voters in the State. " The same thirty thousand that elected Gov. Vance." If these gen tlemen could, on a solemn occasion in the presence of tbe President, impeach such a majority of their constituents of disloyalty and their " toneue not cleave to the roof of their mouths "if they.could thus with a matricid vl stroke, stab the reputation of good Old mother and their "right band not forget its cunning "who could promise himself safety from tbe espoinage of " detectives " wbo have no sympa thy with our interests and no knowledge of our people ? Let us imitate the courage and practice me virtue oi our ancestors to whom we are indebt ed for so m tny blessings, maxims and principles in political economy. They were not ready to lay their liberties at the foot of the crown upon every '. viuor imaginary alarm. Tbey knew full ' well that liberty.was not like a garment that could be thrown off to-day and put oh to-morrow. They knew full well iu tbe language of Gov. Brown that important rights yielded to those in power with out rebuke or protest were never recovered by the people without revolution." This act of Congress urged by Executive recom mendation if intended for this State, more especially as many Deiive,, was criminally gratuitous and un necessary. ' It was in tbe very face as I have shown of tho unwavering support of the administration on tbe part of our people of all war measured that have even the semblance of patriotism, with the mantle or charity thrown over Executive blunders, and con . trery to tho urgent and earnest appeals of Gov. Vance in all his official correspondence upon this subject, with the Executive and Legislative officers ol tbe government. How much wiser it would have been in the Pres ident and in Congress to have been influenced by the patriotic suggestions of his advice than the de clarations of irresponsible letter-writers who are al ways extravagant and seldom truthful. Tbe gentleman from Davidson, Mr. Beall, who nas spoken witn so much lamtlianty with English authorities, alludes to the suspension of this writ in that country at various times add quotes the books to sustain bis position. This he holds as a prece dent for our Congress in their late extraordinary and unconstitutional action. It will doubtless strike this House with great surprise that a gentleman ap parently so familiar with English law and English jurisprudence, should not have ' remembered that there was a marked diuorence between the preroga tives ol the English parliament and tbe Confeder ate Congress. The power of the one is omnipotent and limited by no written Constitution. They could repeal habeas corpus itself if they chose, but they dare not do it. Such :s the spirit of liberty in that country. Their power to do so, however, is unquestionable. Of the other, however, the case is quite different. Uur Congress is limited in its pow ers by a written Constitution, by which all the rights not expressly delegated are reserved to the States. Can the gentleman from Davidson trace a parallel between the two I The gentleman says the resolutions reported by the committee are at fault because they declare there have been infractions of the Constitutionjon tbe part of Congress and that the tut pension act confers judicial authority on the President Were I to attempt to follow the gentle man in his learned legal arguments, doubtless the House of Commons would recoenize the eiahth wonder ol the world in an attempt on the part of two laymen i wno perhaps know somethinff of med icines, but little of law) to discuss constitutional questions in tbe presence of constitutional lawyers. It would be an act of supererogation on the Dart of any member of this House to add to the weight of Mguunui against mo wiiBiuuuunaiiy oi uiiB meas ure with which' the country is already as familiar as the schoolboy with his hornbook. Upon this subject, I will turn the gentleman over to the ten der mercies of Gov. Brown, Vice President Steph ens, and Gov. Vance in their recent able and con vincing State papers. -.
