ties, in order to prevent any further

to surrender the forces on this sid W
The river without waiting for the ar.
a'ivai Of the enemy. In this view the

eafred !; in fact many of the latter,
conscious that the end of the war was

tened i,ome.toaee their families from
whom they had been SO long. sppa-

sumo. We may do so at another
time Suffice it to say for the pres

hehooYcs us to succumb as geac. e.ls
~ asspossible, ard to elicit from our
receht enrufies as much respect for
our Conduct in peace az admiration

that the Federal government bears
no malice towards those who for the
last four years have stHbboraly ee7
sisted its authority, and that its pre-
sent object is to restore the era of
good feeling. In theif efforts to-
bring abont such a result the Federal
authorities will meet with the hearty
cooperation of the people Of the.
South. We have already suffered
enough; we want peace, and order,
and security, no matter under what
government we are to live. 1t lis
needless for us to caution our people
against any disnrderly acts there is
not the remotest probability Of then
committing any.

it may be brought speedily to justice.
Resolved.-That while u great man has
fallen, and we mourn his loss, yet thous-
and hands such as that by which he fell,
cannot destroy the glorious fabric of
government which our fathers reared, for
which our chief magistrate died-which
is our heritage and shall be that Of our
children.

thies to the bereaved relatives of the
President, in this, their hour of affllctlon,
and also to the Secretary of State and
his family.
