RESTORATION OF THE STATE GOVERNMENT IN SOUTH
CAROLINA.—James L. Orr was duly inaugurated as
Governor of South Carolina, at Columbia, on the 6th inst.
Provisional Governor Perry took part in the proceedings,
and made a farewell address to the Legislature, which
makes it evident that the President has recalled his order
to Mr. Perry to continue to hold his office. The adoption
of the anti-slavery constitutional amendment by the Legis-
lature probably satisfied the President that the State is
sufficiently reconstructed to be trusted with its own
Governor. Governor Perry said in his farewell address
--‘, I am sure, gentlemen, that I may say with perfect pro-
priety, as the representative of the Federal Government,
in South Carolina, that the state has done enough to en-
title her to be received back as a member of the Federal
Union, with all of her constitutional rights fully restored. As
soon as the President's proclamation was issued, the
people of South Carolina went cheerfully forth and took
the amnesty oath. They promptly assembled in conven-
tion, under the order of the Provisional Governor, and re-
formed their State Convention, as was desired by the Pre-
sident. They abolished slavery, and freely gave up their
two hundred millions invested in slaves. When advised
to adopt the congressional amendment to the constitution
of the United States abolishing slavery, South Carolina
was the first Southern State which ratified the same, and
set an example for her sister states to follow. She has
has been first, also, in preparing a wise and humane code
of laws for the p;otection of the freedmen in all their rights
of personal property, and allowing them to give testimony
in her courts of justice. She has now elected her repre-
sentatives in both Houses of Congress, and commissioned
them to take their seats in that body. She has organised
a perfect State Government, with legislative, executive,
and judiciary departments, all Republican in their charac-
ter, and the members of each swearing to support the con-
stitution of the United States. Her ordinances of seces-
sion have been repealed, and she now pledges herself to
stand by .the Union in good faith and with all sincerity."
Governor Orr said in his augural address that secession and
slavery had been forever destroyed by the war, reaffirmed
the assertion made by Mr. Perry, and said of President
Johnson :—" The clemency which President Johnson has
so generously extended to many of our citizens, in granting
full and free pardon for participation in the late revolution
does honour to his statesmanship and to his sense of jus-
tice. He is the ruling power of a great and triumphant
Government, and by his policy will attach by cords stronger
than triple steel' the citizens of one entire section of the
Union to that government which he has so long and so
ably supported and maintained. He was well acquainted
with the South, with her politics and politicians, and,
knew, however erroneous in his judgment may have been
their political principles, that they honestly entertained the
sentiments which they professed, and for which they
perilled their all; and after failing in their end, when they
proposed to return to their loyalty, that humanity and
policy dictated that they should not be hunted down for
ignominious punishment. I shall give this policy
of reconstruction an earnest and zealous support." Go-
vernor Orr earnestly recommended legislation to pro-
tect the persons and property of the freedmen, and to
allow them to testify in the courts. He praised their
good conduct during the war, and said :—" If there
be reasons to complain that the negro has been
emancipated, in derogation of the right and interest
of the owner, such complaint cannot be lodged against
him ; whatever of ill feeling exists in the minds of former.
owners for the present state of affairs, it is not just that
it should be visited on him. Interest and humanity
require us to treat him kindly, and to elevate him, morally
and intellectually ; and it will make him a better laborer,
neighbor, and man. Suddenly relieved from the restraints
of the servile condition in which he was born and reared,
his ignorance can excite no surprise; nor can we hope
that he will eschew vice and crime. If he is to live in our
midst, none are so deeply interested in enlightening and
elevating him as ourselves."

[ADTERTISEMENT. Holloway's Pills. The Ready
Remedy.—When winter sets in the human constitution
undergoes many trials, from some of which disease will
spring unless the blood, repelled from the surface of the
body, finds organs capable of receiving it and secretions
adapted to consume it. This preservative power is admir-
ably displayed by proper doses of Holloway's pills, which
relieve the liver, kidneys, and bowels from undue conges-
tion by immediately augmenting their secretions, and so
diverting any surplus quantity of blood from a situation
where its continued presence must be mischievous. With
these pills, and an attentive perusal of their accompanying
directions, neither great judgment nor much experience is
required to conduct even the delicate through the trying
time of winter.
