the resolutions adopted by the Legislature,
endorsing his policy for the reconstruction OF
the Union The President made a brief
reply, referring 10 and reiterating his previous
declaration in regard 10 reconstruction, and
said he had only to thank them for the en-.
couragement given by the resolutions. He
hoped his future acts would show that this
confidence has not been misplaced, and that

ken in the approval they show.
He said, 1t is not necessary for me to state

highly encouraging reports relative to the
suppression Of smuggling on the Canada

extended conversation with gentleman from
Mississippi, in regard to affairs in the South.
Among other things be thus speaks of ma

that whatever guilt may attach to n few South

and fighting bravey while in 1t. have now. IN
| the best OF faith, laid down their arms. and
are the class upon whom We may hereafter
most rely for sustaining the Government in

as were not killed of in the war, who in the
| beginning formed considerable proportion
of the rebel armies, and who now have prop
erty interests that incline them TO peace and
| repose, are likely hereafter to be the best
| friends of the new system. and to give efficient
| aid TO the Government in the maintenance of
order
But the outlaws, ragamufiins, scallawags.

The Tribune's reporter of the General
Court Martial at Raleigh writes that this trial,
