| the preservation of our Union, the re-
establishment ofthe national authority,
and tho eXtirpation Of slavery, am
pie recompense for the suffering and
sacrifice by which these results hive
been achieved.
ResOIUed, That the soldiers and sail
ors of all ranks and in all departments,
| by whose valor, under Divine ProVi-
dence, the great result has been ACCOM-
plished, and who have, by their hero
ism shed new and undyfng lustre on
tho American name, we return the
heartfelt thanks of q grateful people,
and TINT we renew the demand made
| by the Union National Convention ut
Baltimore, that adequate provision be

/ support and comfort of such of these
survivors as have received honorable
and disabling wounds in the service of
their country.
ResOLyed, That while we deplore the
death, by assassination, of Abraham
Lincoln, as closing n career of trans
cendent usefulness and honor, and as n
great national calamity, we recognize
in Andrew Johnson, his successor, a
statesman of ability, experience, high
toned patriotism and the most unsuI-
lied integrity, ono who hns rendered
invaluable services to the Union cause
during the war, and whose single-heurt.
ed devotion to the permanent prosper
ity and glory of our common country,
commands the respect and confidence
of the American people, and that we
renew to him in his administration, as
surances of cordial and effective sup
port, which We're rendered by us in his
ReSOLUed, That We approve as emil
nently wise and just, the sentiment of
kindness and confidence which Pres't
johnson hns eYinced towards those of
the communities and individuals lately
in rebellion, who accept the perpetua-
ton of the Union and the perpetual
prohibition of slavery as the Legitimate
and Immediate result Of the war. Thaf
we approve the initinl step he has taken
towards relaxing the bonds of military
authority in the southern States, and in
restoring TO their people full and COM
plete control over their local affairs,
just as soon rs it may be found compat-
ible with the preservation of order, the
maintenance of peace, the exclusion of
slavery, and the fulltilment of the con-
stitutional obligations to and of the ma
national authority, to guarantee to eve
ry State republican form of govern
ment, and that we confidently look for
ward, under his wise and patriotic adj
ministration, to the establishment of
more cordial relations, of greater mu-
tual respect, of stronger interest i'll each

and southern sections of the country,
than have hitherto prevailed, and that
in all the measures he may adopt tend
ing to the attainment of these Just and
beniticent ends, we pledge him our
candid and hearty support.
tional sovereignty over all the subjects
committed to it by the Constitution Of
the United States, as having been con-
frmed and established by the recent
war, we regard the several States in
the Union, as having the Jurisdiction
over all local and domestic affairs, ex-
pressly reserved to them by the same
constitutional authority, and that
whenever it shall be deemed compatible
with the public safety to restore to the
States lately in rebellion the renewed
exercises of these rights, we trust it will
be done in tho faith, and on the basis
that they will be exercised in a shirt. of
equal and impartial justice; and with
view to the elevation to the full rights
of citizenship of all their people, mas
much as they are the principles which
constitute the basis of our republican
institutions.
ReSolUed, That the restoration of
peace Will enable the Government to
restore the civil tribunals of the cOun-
try to their just and natural supremacy;
and that we have free and entire conf
dence that this will be done rs soon us
the safety of the nationwill permit, and
no sooner.
IResOLUcd, That the debts incurred by
| the nation in defense of its own exis-
tence, is a sacred and inviolnble obli-
| CATION, resting upon all the property
and all the resources of all sections of
the country for its fulfillment; that
while we demand mt the hands of Con-
/ gross such measures us shall impose
the burden of taxation equally and i'm
| partially upon all classes, we have full
reliance upon the people for the main
tonnnce of the national honor and the
ultimate extinction of the national
| debt, and TINT we approve and endorse
the determination of the government,
under no circumstances, to assume, di-
rectly or indirectly, any portion of the
| debts incurred by the rebel authorities
in the prosecution of the war against
the United States.
ReSOtCed, Thatwe expect at the hands
| of the government, as prompt and as
large n reduction of the national expen.
ditures as the public safety will permit;
an abolition of all sinecures, and n wise
and economical administration of pub
lie affairs.
RESOLVED, That we have entire conf.
dence in the direction, under President
Johnson, ofOur intercourse with foreign
nations; in his prompt enforcement
against them of all just demands in Sc.
curing redress for national insults and
wrongs, and in maintaining the fixed
| policy of our government, by which the
interference of foreign powers with
the institutions of this continent is re,
garded MS hostile to our peace and me,
nacing to our independence.
ReSOtUed, That we tender our congrat.
ulations to Vim. III. Seward upon his
providential escape from the knife o.
the assassin, and we rejoice that his dis
ungnished services may still continue t.
the nation and cause of liberty.
