They are not only not acting under any authority derived from the people of the United States, but in direct contravention of the known will of the people of the South. It is true that some of the members of the dominant party, in and out of Congress, justify legislation upon constitutional grounds, but Mr. Stevens, of Pennsylvania who has in the public judgment become the master of his party in the House of Representatives, is guiltless of such a folly. In a letter of his, recently published, ...with the frankness and boldness which belong to him, he rejects the absurdity and places the authority of Congress upon some ground outside of the Consti- tution, and admits that it has no warrant whatever, under any of its delegated powers. If he is right, then it follows that as far as regards the South there is no other restriction upon the leo-islation of Congress than its own discretion. It may consequently treat all the Southern States as having no existence whatever, as States, and govern them, through all time, as territories, or constitute the whole in one or as many States as they may think proper, and with such powers and 13 rights as they may choose to confer.
