OF ABRAHAM Lincoln in putting down armed
reDeIllon against the authority of the COnsti-
tuition and laws of the United States by mill
Iary Ioree, to convey to the tried and faithful
friends OF the Union from the South the assnr-
ance OF our deep sympathy with them: of orr
gratitude and admiration for their LOYALTY and
zeal, conspicuous in the midst of seyerest
Trials and OF our steadfast purpose to stand
by them and to protect them against the perils
winch still threaten then. We desire Won to
assure them that We earnestly wish for the
early and full restoration of the Southern com
munltles as States of the Union, but that we
are lnheXlbly opposed to all schemes of restor-
alton which fail to provide some guarantees for
the security ofthOse whose answering fidelity
TO the National Flag has aroused against them
the bitter malevolence, of the lately rebellious
majority. Recent events in New Orleans and
memphis sufficiently indicate the necessity for
SUCH guarantees while the perfidious aban-
donment, by an accidental President, of the
pledges he voluntarily made, and his open al
lance with copperheads and traitors. call for
renewed vigilance, effort and sacrifice by the
loyal men OF the Republic, that peace and Or
der may be established upon Just and perma-
hent foundations, and that the blood and treas
ure freely given in its defence shall not have
peen poured out in vain"

protecting and sustaining the Convention in
Its illegal and unauthorized proceedings, cal

Further, did the mob assemble, and was it rails
ed 1or the purpose of assisting the Convention
IN its usurpation Have any arms been taken
from persons since the 30th ultimo who were
supposed or known to be connected with this
mob? Have various individuals been shot and
killed by this mob without good cause, and in
violation of the public peace and good order
Was not the assembling of this Convention and
the gathering of the mob for protection the
main cause of the riotous and unlawful pro-
ceedlngs ofthe civil authorities of New Orleans?
Have steps been taken by the authorities to ar
rest ana try all those who were engaged in
