Tbt averment is made that the Congreai of the United Statea cannot constitutionally expal Miisissippi from the Union, and that any attempt which practically does so is a nullity, and that there it no provitioo it the Constitution of the United States which subjects ber, aa a. State, to any pains, penalties or forfeit ures, aa a eenseqoeoce cf inch void attempt of a portion ef her people te withdrsw ber from the Union, all powers to punish a State by expulsion or otherwise, for any cause, having been express ly refused io the Convention which formed the Federal Constitution. She avers that her citizens lest none of their political rig .u, nor incurred any penalties, ex cept what might bo inflicted a them at. individ uals by the process of law, after'trial by jury in courts having jurisdiction of their offences, and that dieiibiliiict attempted te be imposed upon ber or upon her citizens, otherwise than as afore said, by jny body ef persons, are void und viola tions uf the Constitution of the United States, ts well as of the compact with Georgia of 1802, and with Virginia of 1787. She avows that she I as exhibited her gjod faith and adhesion to the Constitution ty electing Senators and Represeu' tstives to Congress, and complains that they bare' bteu wrongfully excluded, and that her people have beeu compelled to pay the taxes and- bear the burdens cf government without represents tion. . The act to provide Lt the mere efficient gov ernaient of the rebel States, aud the act supple mentary thereto, utterly annihilates tbe State and its government, by assuming for Congress the, power to control, modify and even abolish its government; ia short, to exert sovereign power over it, acd the utter destruction of tbe Si its must be the consequence of their execution.
