This act of devotion to constitutional right contributed as much perhaps, as any other to elevate him to his present exalted station.

In what sense can this be said of Georgia, ry man of her militia can be taken from under the control of her constitutional Commander in Chief without his consent. Must he abdicate his most important duties by permitting himself to, be disarmed of his forces, and this, too, in violation of his oath?

Thomas of the Elberty county, Ga. Superior Court last week, and a decision given liberating the plaintiff from the hands of the enrolling officer. Among the points made by the counset for the plaintiff was, that the "Conscript act is unconstitutional, and therefore the act itself and all regulations and orders based upon it are likewise void." Upon this point the decision of the Judge was as follows: We come now to the third point made by plaintiff's counsel to wit: That the Conscript art is unconstitutional, and, therefore, the act itself, and all regulations and orders based upon it are likewise void. In every Government based on a written Constitution, containing restrictions on the legislative department, it follows necessarily that the indicatory must annul all acts in violation of that Constit

Nor is this plea of necessity true in fact — The Conscript law can only furnish men. We have and had before, State laws to reach every man in the State between eighteen and forty five, and to say the Conscript law war necessary to procure men, is to maintain the arithmetical absurdity that there are more men in the country between eighteen and thirty-five than between eighteen and forty five. Whereupon, and for these reasons, it is ordered and adjudged by the Court that the act of the Confederate Congress known as the Conscript law, and entitled an act to further provide for the public defence, is told, and is hereby declared void, and that the plaintiff, James M. Lovinggood, he released and discharged from the custody and control of Sydney P. Bruce, and from the custody, and patrol of the Sheriff of this Court, and be set at liberty to go wherever he please.
