Whereas, The people of the several
before mentioned States have, in the
manner aforesaid, been constantly
giving satisfactory evidence that they
acquiesee in this important resolution
of the National Union; and, whereas,
it is believed to be the fundamental
principle of the Government that the
people who have revolted and who have
been overcome and subdued must be
dealt with so as to induce them yirtu
ally to become friends, or else they
must be held by absolute military pow
er so as to prevent them from ever
again doing harm as enemies, which
last named policy was abhorrent to
humanity and freedom; and whereas,
the Constitution of the United States
provides for Constitutional Common
wealths only as States. and not as ter
ritories, and provides proteotorates;
and whereas, such Constitutional States
must necessarily be, and by the Con-
stitution and laws of the United States
are, made equals and placed on like
footing as to political rights, immuni-
ties, dignity and favor. with the sever
al States with which they are united,
and whereas, the observance Of politi-
cal equality as principle right and
justice is we'll calculated to encourage
the people of the States to be and be-
come more and more persevering in
their renewed allegiance. and whereas,
standing military occupation, martial
law, military tribunals, and the sus
pension of the privilege of the writ Of
habeas corpus are, in time of peace,
dangerous to public interest and in
compatible with the individual rights
of citizens, and contrary to the genius
and spirit of our free institutions, and
an exhaustion of the national resources
and ought not therefore, be sanctioned
or allowed. except in case of war, fol
repelling invaders or suppressing in.
surrection or rebellion; and whereas
the policy Of the Government of the
/ United States from the beginning Of
the instruction to its final suppression
has been in conformity with the prin.
ciples herein set forth and enumerated
therefore, I, Andrew johnson, Presi
dent Of the United States, do hereby
proclaim and declare that the insur
rection which heretofore existed in the
States of Georgia, South Carolina
North Carolina, Virginia, Louisiana
] Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama, Texas
and Florida, is at an end, and hence

AMAGRADE M. AFFORD, being in the
30th year of his age. @e&
In early manhood, and with every
prospect of long and successful life.
be has been seized by the angel of
death and transported beyond the dark
curtain that hides eternity from as =
His probation was short but severe,
and satisfied with it the Almighty has
taken him, we trust, to q fairer and
better land. @
Throughout boyhood, youth and
manhood he was ever true as friend
and honorable in all his dealings. His
patriotism was most commendable.-
Answering the call of duty, as he be-
lieved, he early enlisted in the Con-
tederate army during the late war, and
throughout and at the disastrous ter
mination was ever found at his post Of
duty. . ga ts
He leaves widow 60 mourn his loss.
But unto her their infant child will
ever present an image Of its father and
be unto her sweet, but mournful So
lace. Unto his brothers, sisters, rela-
tons and friends his name will ever
cause an unbidden tear to rise. He
rests in peace where neyermore will
the racket of the kettle drum disturb
him. A FRIEND.

The gisEature,

We have received unofficial news
that the Legislature has adjourned by
operation of Law,
What they have done we know not
as our parish has never been honored
with copy Of the State Gazette, in
which official copies of the laws are
published.
Il has been "a time-honored custom
20 furnish the Clerks of the different
Courts with copy of the State Gazette
from The beginning of the Legislature
until the laws Of the session were all
published officially. The Clerk of thi.
Parish has not;received copy of sucE
paper, and unless the laws are published
in pamphlet form sooner than theJ
used to be in Better times, we are no
likely TO know what laws have beer
made By our Legislature, for Ions
time to come.
The laws of the Extra Session bavt
not yet reached this dark corner of The
State.
The laws are promulgated by opera
ton of law, dating from the time the,
are published ia the State Gazette. Blu
if the Gazette uever reaches the Parish
this PRONUNCIATION is fiction Of law
calculated to en2rap the unwary citizen
When our members Of the Legisla-
ture return to the Parish, we hope they
will be able to give us at least the out
lines Of some Of the new laws that we
are expected to,obserye and obey.

THE GREAT SOUTHERN CIRCUS
Talk as we may in praise of the legiti-
mate drama, enjoyable as ballet and
pautom:me and opera are, an occasion
al visit to the circus, if it be good
one, is a more exciting and exhiliara-
ting amusement than any of these
Prom all we have read and heard of
Stone, Rosston & Murray's great
5oathern Circus, we doubt if its equal
has ever been under canvass before in
New Orleans. The number of perform
ers, both human and equine, the talents
Of The former and celebrity of the latter,
and the variety of the entertainments.
all promise season of delight during
the few days they will be with u.s.
The first exhibition will be given to-
morrow night in the vacant lot at the
corner of st. Joseph and Barrone
streets.
The considerate liberality of this
company merits special and commend
able notice. Wherever they go they
give gross receipts to deserving chart
ties, deducting nothing for expenses.
In Memphis they gave $l650 to the
Southern Soldiers Home, and 5000
TO the Catholic Orphan Asylum, and in
Mobile committee acknowledges the
receipt of upwards of $4,000 from them,
to be divided between the Protestant
and Catholic asylums. Capt. Tidmarsh,
a true, whole-souled Southern soldier
who is the director of the circus, in
forms us that before leaving New Or
Leans the company will give one or two
performances to aid our most needy
public charities, and he invites cor
respondence on the subject. Letters
msy be addressed to him at the St
Charles theatre.-[N. O. Crescent.
