THURSDAY, 16.
The day opened with an unclouded
sky, and as usual the masses began to
gather about the Wigwam at an early
hour, to witness the closing ceremo-
MES, as it is agreed by all that thead-
journment will take place by 2 clock
pm. The usual order of proceedings
was maintained; the band playing the
Star Spangled Banner, " concluding
with Dixie71 Then followed
lengthy prayer, after which the House
went into regular business.
THE ADDRESS. y
The Committee on the Address re
ported ready, and the Hon. Mr. Ray
mond, of New York, proceeded to
read a lengthy document, which was
received with the most rapturous APP
plause. Your readers will soon have
it complete, and [ can only briefly
notice some of its most prominent
points
That the war has clearly established
the supremacy of the Government;
that the Government maintains by
force of arms its supremacy over all
the States as of old, but nothing more;
that the Government acted only on
the defensive, and that, in repelling
the assault made thereon, it but pre-
served the order of things, and that
to-day the Constitution is as it was,
and that the States rights are i'm
maculate; that the exclusion of States
from representation involves as much /,
danger, if not more, than did the first
steps taken il the rebellion, and that
the said exclusion is at war with every
true principle of Recognized Govern
ment; when State is excluded, the
validity of the Constitution is drawn
in question. 1t discusses the ques-
ton of the eligibility of the Southern
people to be allowed the right of rep
resentation, and denies that, because
of the rebellion, THAT right has been
forfeited.

This clause, socalled, had to be read
twice, amid the widest excitement.
It insists that the present disloyalty, if

would be but degenerate sons of noble
ancestry if they could for one moment
think of accepting the humiliating
terms offered them.

that they Believed that the cause of

THE MASSACHUSETTS AND SOUTH CAR
.,.e .'''', DINA DELEGATION.

A very interesting incident occurred
at this period, and one calculated to
impress all beholders Hon. A. W.
Randall announced that the delega-
tions from Massachusetts and South
Carolina would enter arm in arm.
When the announcement was made,
all arose impulsively to catch a glimpse
ola sight so novel. There was cheer
ing when they marched in as above,
little looking like men, who, but a
short time ago were arrayed one
against the other in deadly strife; or
less like members, from these two
States, that are each accused of hay

!" Moses, Returned to His Friends.

1t appears that Andy Johnson was only Q
stray sheep from the Locofoco fold. Pasture
had become very short and withered, and he
wandered off. After awhile he was found-not
in bulrushes, though-taken up and put into
green pastures, where he coon became fat and
"saucy," and ungrateful to his preservers. One
day he accidentally said he would be -" Moses. "
and Immediately the flock from which he had
strayed began to cry out
tsss "Mosesi Moses don't get lost; +s<r
Stretch your rod and come across ~
And Moses" hearkened unto the cry, stretched
his 4" My Policy" rod, and tcent home. He is now
distributing his flock among the green pastures
preparing them, with himself as the leader, for
another attempt to destroy the government
In tho meantime he has been " swinging round
"the circle hunting up his old friends and
urging then. to renewed efforts. Such is Andy
johnson, the modern - Moses," whose motto ie
"rule or ruin" In swinging round the eir-
"cle' he has become dizzy, like the drunkard
and thinks the law making power has swung
around from Congress to him, and he therefore
defes the people with his My Policy The

and Iowa have given him such blow will

Special Notice.

Walking along North Gay Street, our atten-
ton was attracted by a large and pretty store,
such as one will often find along Broadway, N.
Y. We walked in and Immediately recognized
our old friend CLBAvELAED. He eourteously
showed us through his establishment. We found
he had splendid stock for retailing, and down
stairs for wholesaleing. His stock is composed
of Dry Goods of all kinds; Gassimeres, great
variety; fine line of Hosiery, Gloves, Shirts
and Ties in fact, tho best selected stock Of goods
we have seen. His prices, as general thing,
are 5 per cent lower than elsewhere. Wewent
away under theconvction that Dry Goods and
Notions could be bought lower at lG3 N, Gay
Street, one door from Front Street, than any
where else in Baltimore.

The President and the People.

President johnson has always protested great
regard for the people. It is his frequent asser-
ton that he came from, and is one of the people
and that he'll always governed by the wishes Of
the people The President saw fit more than a
year ago to announce plan of reconstruction
and after refusing to acquiese and cooperate
with Congress, in the great work of restoring
the Union, be expressed his willingness to appeal
to the people. He declared that the people who
clearly comprehend the great questions in issue
would decide between him and Congress The
people have spoken, and they have pronounced
against the President andin favor of Congress.
They have said by their verdict that the Presi-
dents policy" in regard to recostruction was
not satisfactory, and that the measures he vetoed
were right. II the president meant what he said
in so many ways and SO many occasions, he must
now abandon his "policy' and corporate with
Congress. Will he doit Will he now acknowl-
edged the defeat he has sustained, and abide by
that verdict of the people, SO recently expressed?
If he does, then all strife between the President
and Congress will cease lfhe does not then he
viii show himself an untruthfrl man and dem
agogue. What will he do ? The elections TO be
held in November will be the re-echo of those just
passed. AS goes Pennsylvania, so goes New
York. In New Jersey we shall gain one, if not
two members of Congress. In Illinois we shall
hold our own, and we also venture the prediction
that the apostacy of Senator Doolit,le and Gov.
Randall will not cause any considerable defec,
ton in Wisconsin. The issue between the Presi-
dent aud Congress is virtually decided. The peo-
pie are the highest court known in republic,
and from whose decision there lies no appeal
They have now demanded that the constitution
al amendments must be ratified by the South as
q condition precedent to their being represented
in Congress. Will the President now retrace bis
steps Will be appoIagize for the insults he has
offered the people in the person of their represen
tatives Will he retrsct the ISLANDERS be has ut
