We have heretofore published a meagre ab stract of the message of the Governor of Geor gia to" tha legislature of that State. - Wo hava been so impressed with the calm and statesman like manner in which be discusses the proposed Constitutional amendment, that wa .make, fop the information and gratification of our readers. the following editorial jrammary of his argu ment : f'---" Ia regard to the first . section, it says that whether the object n proposing this change be the extension of tha elective franchise to persiKis of African descent (nearly all of whom are noto riously anqualifled for.it,) or a further diminu tion of the already relatively small wiciglitof the Southern Stales. in tU Wioiniatratioii of the government, . the adoption of this amendment will certainly loree upon them a choice between those evils. If the former be the real object, the latter alternative ;niust be regarded simply as penalty for lefusingit In the North, says the Governor: , s'' ' - - '.'The selection of the one or the other alterna tive will bar: only a matter of taste, no great public interest being involved. - If the franchise be extended, the number thus newly admitted to the ballot will.be so small that no. apprecik- Die enoct upoa popuiar elections can result, it ration in.cxina the ratio or . representation will still be so small) that the consequent reduction would not be seriously ftslt, and in tome iiistan- ceJr (Uld probably, be merely fractional, pro ducing no curtailment at all. Now, look to the other class of States. , There the number of voters proposed; to be eqfranahised, and wholly unprepared tor tne trust, would be immense, and the disturbance in the motive power of re publican ujathliicr incalculable, Tiiere. too, On the other hand, if tic franchisa be witlilu hl, tlie reduction ot representation would be vimt: Is there fairness, fs tlrero justio, in a proposed cuange so different utidiiierent . portions ot a bountry, united under a common government for the common weaU,,tVofuld the euforCometit of such a change by a majority, - it could not harm, upon a minority it must ruin, bespeak magnanimity,'.. . J he third section, wuich distranciuses all tne leaders of trie "rebellion," is emphatically con demned as excluding a large , portion of the people of the Sooth, and as both unjust and dishonoring. He says that the South- cannot spare: he men who are proscribed from her pub But to none of the1 clauses of the amendment' does the governor offer more serious objections than- to the fifth' and last, which gives to Con gress the power to enforce the other clauses of the, amendment Ty "appropriate legislation."--? Against this he employs , the usual argument jjhat jjt will throw open the door to the greatest possible license in Congressional legislation, and 4eave the' rights and powers of the States at the 'mercy of 'the federal govcrnment,where,expe- rience has proved that they cannot safiily be placed,.-; - - ; k--- - r ; ' f.. In view of all these cogent reasons' against tha; ratification of , the amendment, he urges its rejection, and insists, that although It was right and proper for the South, at the termination of hostilities, to 'surrender its antagonism and place i.tsulfin ' strict accord with the govern ment yet it cannot, with justice to itself, sane tibn, changes o the fundamental law palpably wrong arid injurious to the whole body politiCt and that "to submit to Injurious changes in the 'constitution'when forced upon a State, accor ding to this forms prescribed for its amendment, ..would be one thing ; to participate in .making themi'Ubde BuifessTagaitist- her sense of -right and justicfe, would be a very different thing.
