THE NEW YEAR.
to
The advent of a new year is one of those
stages of human progress that, like mile
stones in a long journey, mark our career
through life. They form points of compari
son between the present and the past. In
such comparison we are able to estimate our
gains and losses,—what progress we have
made, nationally and individually, in mate
rial prosperity, in mental improvement, and
in all the elements of strength and power
that contribute to the grandeur of nations.
Despite a civil war of almost unparalelled
magnitude, our productive resources have
undergone no diminution, our people have
been progressive ip intelligence, and in no
respect have we retrograded.
In such a comparison as we have indicated
the result would be flattering to our national
pride, to our institutions, to the Anglo-Saxon
race itself; and it would be profitable as the
inheritors of European civilization, reflecting
back tire light that we have borrowed from
the most advanced of the ancient nations did
we show that we have impaired none of that
heritage of liberty they have transmitted to
us.
It forms one of the themes of classical des
cant that the foundations of English and
American froedom are laid In Grecian and
Roman story—that but fm^assical models,
which combined the hignwt. examples of
talept and patriotism, we would have had no
such patterns of genius and public virtue as
have emblazoned the pages of Greece, and
Rome. History was comparatively a blank
before their appearance on the stage of hu
man action. It has become the custom, ii
the pride of science, to undervalue the an
cients—the fountain beads of our literature.
Did those moral truths, that form the basis
of ethical science, fall unfruitful from the lips
ot teachers like Socrates aud Plato? Were
their teachings barren of fruits? Did Aris
totle explore the truths of psychology, and
cununciate the first principles of government,
the laws of a philosophical method, (agreeable
to the knowledge of his age,) and shed no
light on the path of the modern inquirer ?
Who can trace the successive Bteps by which
a Leibritz, a Hume, a Descartes was led
by their discoveries to the point they reached
through the investigations of those early
masters of philosophy.
It is not denied that in physical science
I 1 --- moderns have distanced those who have
1 """ “XQelled them in the work of
MMe and a3 they have too
i! sculpture, painting and arcmteciuic.
It would indeed have been wonderful if
the researches of the chemist and geo-
J-" ! st had penetrated the arcana of ua-
ture when, Cicero was delighting the Romans
with the strains of his oratory, or Herodo
tus was reciting his histo* ! tfore the au-

THK CONSTITUTIONAL. AMENDMENT
PROHIBITING SLAVERY.
While the resolution ratifying the amend
ment to the Constitution abolishing slavery
was beforetiie Honse of Representatives of
Georgia, a discussion arose in that hotly in
regard to the construction of the second
clause of said amendment, which declares
that ’’Congress shall have power to enforce
this article by appropriate legislation/’ By
some it wsb contended that the clause gave
Congress the power to interfere with the do
mestic ’affairs of the States,, while others
maintained that it did not so enlarge the
the powers of Congress, bat was on the con
trary restricting in its character. #
To affirm this latter viewrof the case the
following resolution was added to the'ratlfl-
cation resolution :
“Beit further Resolved, That .in ratifying
the amendment to the Constitution of the U.
S., we do so, believing that the ConeTess of
the U. S., has the power?only to make per
manent the emancipation of slaves, and that
all rights of cilizenshiD can'"be conferred only
by the States respectiffely—and such, we un
derstaud and believe, to have been the object
of said
contemplated in the second section of sail
amendment, and (pat nothing therein con
tained authorizes Congress to interfere with
the internal affairs of the States.” f

Burial of tbe Confederate Read.
The funeral obsequies of the dead of the
Eighteenth Georgia Battalion (Savan
nah Volunteer Guatffs) were obrerv6d-*with
appropriate solemn! I loir ,at Laufel Grope
Cemetery yesterday aTterfioon. Notwithstand
ing the inclemency of the day, it fW appoint
ed hour, 3 o'clock, a very large number of
our moat respectable citizens, ladies aud gen
tlemen and youth, including the relatives and
friends of the gellaut dead, had assembled at
tho entrance of the reception vault, where
the boxes containing tho remains had been
placed aide by Bide and covered with laurel
wreathes and bouqets of choice flowers. The
tad company bad gathered round, and iu
the silence of deep feeling—more expressive
than the military pomp and swell of martial
music, with which the last honors are paid
to lnlleu soldiers—awaited the performance of
the burial service by the attending clergy. Af
ter the arrival of the Metropolitan Fire
Company, in a body, among whom,
es in the crowd, we observed many
vet«ruu volunteers in the lato war,
companions in armB of lliqge whose
manes they had come to honor—an appro
priate hymn was sung; after which the so
lemnly impressivo burial service of tho Pres
byterian Church was read by Kov. Dr. 1 S.
£. Axson, of tbe Independent Presbyterian
Church. After the reading, a most fervent
and feeling prayer was addressed to the
Throne of Grace, by N»e Rev. SylvanOs Lan
drum, of the Savannah Baptist Church, the
ceremonies being closed by the Right Rev.
. Stephen Elliott, Blfhop of Georgia, who pre
face-) pie closing burial service with a brief
but most lynching allusion to the solemn oc
casion, which thrilled tbe hearts of all present.
The funeral rites over, the remains of
those who had been ltamified were borne to
tbe family lots of tbe dtv» ase d ft* burial,
while the eleven, whose rcto,i ns *' C00 i ( j noh
be iden ified, were buried in the Savannah
Volunteer Guards' lot, together, as thy. j, a( j
hgled their blood on “ their field of gU,^
Wuen the graves bad been closed over aSa.
strewn with wreaths and evergreens and
flowers, the sad throng withdrew in silence,
many,a kindred heart experiencing a relief
tbat the loved and lost ones bad been gather
ed to rest in the bosom of their native soil.
After considerable .discussion the above
resolution was stricken out, as being nnne-
ccssary; its opponents ^naintainibg- that no
resolution of construction by the Legislature
could affect a question which would be de
termined by future Congresses and the Su
preme Court. ■ ■rj ;
It seems tbat similar apprehensions of an
enlargement of tbe powers ot the General
Government over the domestic affaire of the
States, was entertained by the Mississippi
Legislature, who ratified the amendment of
the Constitution with the qualificatftn “that
this ratification is expressly made and adopt
ed upon the conditions and with the reser
vations following:
“1st. It shall not be construed into an ap
proval or indorsement of the political princi
ples or doctrine that the reserved rights of a
State, can, without the eon«ent of such State,
be usurped or abridged by the Federal Gov
ernment, through the instrumentality of a
Constitutional amendment.
3d. It shall not be construed into expressed
or complied consent on tbe part of tbe Leg
islature that Congress shall abolish slavery
where it lawfully exists in any State that
may refuse to ratify said amendment-
3d. The emancipation of slavery in this
State being a fixed fact—distinctly recog
nized by her condition and by recent legisla
tive enactments, designed in good faith to
maintain and protect tbe civil rights of tbe
Ireedmen appertaining to their new condition
of freedom.
The second section of said amendment
shall not be construed as a grant of power to
Congress to legislate in regard to the freed-
ineu of this State; but so far as relates to
this State it shall be construed simply us a
grant of power to Congress bf appropriate
legislation to prohibit and prevent tbe re
establishment of slavery therein.’’
While there can be no doubt that a majori
ty of those in our own legislate who voted
for the iMiflcation resolu
the captions RoJ wjth
t-bove set forth, it is very
construction jvhl^h ■ they Nor
me cibaw cS the constitutional
alluded to,. is not admitted by extrenAsts
of the Republican party,- who claim lor Con
gress, under that olause, power to enact and
enforce such laws as they may deem “appro
priate” for the government and protection of
the black population ot the respective States,
la evidence of this tact, we cite the follow
ing extract from the speech of Senator Trum
bull, when giving notice of his intention to
introduce a bill to- enlarge the powers of the
Freedmen’s Bureau. ; He said :
•
“I have never doubted that under the se
cond section of the amendment it would be
competent for Congress to protect every per
son wilhiffthe United States in all the rights
of person and property-belonging to a free
citizen. And to secure those rights is the
object ot tbe bill I propose to introduce. 1
think it important that ac tion should be taken
on this subject at an early day, both for the
purpose of quieting apprehension in the
minds ol'-the many friends of freedom, lest
by local legislation.or a prevailing public
sentiment in some of the States persons of
the African race should coutinue to be op
pressed, and, in fact, deprived of trne free
dom ; and for the purpose of showing to those

Mi. Wilson of Maesachuaeta, and referred
to tho Judiciary Committee :
“A Bill to maintain and enforce the free

Whereas, The Congrese of tbe United
States did, on the 19th day of February,
18Cr>, submit to tbe Legislatures ofthe several
Slates an ameudmunt to the Constitution de
claring that neither slavery nor involuntary
servitude except as a punishment for crime
should exist, and that Congress should
have power to enforce the Mine by appro

Where as, The Secretary of Stole did, on
the 19th day of September, 1865, make of
ficial proclamation that' the said amendment
had been ratified by three-fourths of the
Legislatures of said Btates; therefore,
Be <i enacted, etc., That all lawe, statutes,

wherein, any inequality of civil righto and

involuntary servitude, be and they are here
by declared null and void ; and it shall here-
aiter be unlawful to make, institute, ordain

the Central Railroad remains in its present

A member of the Houstrof Delegatee-lias
ntroduced a preamble (tod resolutions, pro
posing tbe appointment of A joint committee
on tbe part of tbe Senate and Hbuee, whose
duty it shall be to examine the subject tho
roughly and report’their views to tbe General
Assembly as early as praoticable. Tbe ques
tion as thus presented, "elicited, 'says a Ri ch-
mond paper, much animated discussion; and
as the subject is one of great magnitude and
interest to the people of the two-Btates it is
.attracting a large share of attention. S trne
opposition has beeu manifested in the Legis
lature upon the ground that West Virginia
had sought separation find should not be in
vited to return. Several members expressed
the opinion that the resolutions were prema
ture, and should be withdrawn or laid on the
table until the two sections shall have cfioled
down, and be in a propep temper to unite.
Another member,, living hearthe Une divid
ing the two States, declared that he lyiew of
no one along the lin^ of a hundaealmileg op
posed to the re-union of Virginia!
A majority of tbS fciouse, . however, al
though favorable to the proposition, were
opposed to immediate action as premature,
and voted to refer Jhe 'whols’wfibject to a
committee. >' > l
