said, been constantly giving satisfactory evi-
dence that they acquiesce in this important
resolution of the National Union;
AND WHEREAS. 1t is believed to be funda-
mental principle of the Government that the
people who have rcvOlted. and who have been
overcome and subdued, must be dealt with so
as TO induce them virtually to become friends
or else they must be held by absolute militia

And WHEREAS, Standing military Occupa-

Gen Terry.

! The testimony Of this General before tn,
"Irrcprcssiblc Central Directory" is quite 1
contrast to thctestimony Of Gen. Lee. Terry
says he did not associate with any but thu
known Union men of Virginia. This Is en-
Ough to condemn his statements. Upon theiI
i'm the Old Dominion. Gen. Lee thinks the
matter depends much upon the individual
conduct of the men who 20 to reside In the

ious rs to render his residence in any commu-
nifty unsafe. If man steals horses he Is not
apt to be respected citizen, at least among
respectable people. II man is an habitual
di.turber of the peace of a community, law
abiding people will wish to be rid Of him.
All this Gen. Lee, like man of sense. reflect
ed upon before he replied to the "inqusi-
tors" but Terry boldly says that loyal men
cannot safely dwell in the land of Henry,
jefferson and Washington. Who does his
lordship call loyal men?" Those who advo-
cate a continued and indefinite disunion of the
States, or those who desire speedy reunion
and return to the old status of equity, under
the "Constituion or the fathers! Does he
mean the men who now war upon, the Chief
Executive of the Nation, or those who uphold
and aid him? Not long since the test of 10y
atty was the support of the President. MIR.
Lincoln; is this the test now? Terry gathers
all his information, according to his own
statement. from Union men," as he is plea
sed to call them meaning those who betrayed
friends and ncighbors, and disgracefully led
the way for Federal soldiers to burn the hou-
scs of those neghbors, steal their stock, waste
their plantations, and were guilty of other lit
tie peccadiloes, and judging by the opinion
of this kind of folk, he does not think Vir-
gina jury would regard the solemn sanctities
of an oath, when the property or rights of

Gals only by p" writing yourself down an ass

Peace.

We publish, to-day, the Proclamation
of President Johnson, announcing tina,
the war is over, and peace again with H.
This, in some measure, compensates for
the overriding Of the Presidents veto OF
the Civil Rights BILL This proclama.
ton places us in acoDdition i'm which we
can enjoy civil rights, and be amenable to
the civil law, and not be trammeled by the
petty authority of a military officer.
This portion of the South, has been Pc
culiarly fortunate in her military rulers
Other portions of the country have not
Jared quite so well. We do not, there
fore, feel the great blessing conferred by
our sister States will Citizens may now
no longer fear the " Military Commits
sion," and the Courts Martial" They
can be tried and only tried by the cti-
zcns of the vicinage. Where the South
had been fortunate enough to have just
and good men for rulers, we believe the
military has been an assistance and pro-
lection. But however much it may have
assisted the administration of justice, yet
the people of America have no love for
that species of almost irresponsible gov
ernmcnt that consists of the will, caprc-
ious, perhaps, of one man. We do not
feel disposed, at this time, to open up old
memories of petty thefts, robberics, mur-
dcrs, house burnings, and, in fact, all
the crimes that the diabolical ingenuity
of man can possibly invent, that have
been pcrpetrated upon the inhabitants of
our country. If the perpetrators Of these
deeds can suffer from remorse, we leave
them to the tender merces Of violated
conscience The shield that protected
them in the preparation of these villa.
MAS is now taken away. The military,
at all times dangerous power, is now
subscrvient to the civil power. The ju-
risdiction of that power only extends to
the punishment of crimes committed by
persons attached to the army. We can
not deny that we are truly rejoiced at the
return to law and order We will now
see if the forebodings of the enemies to
the Union of the States will be realized.
If the people of the South will manifest
a desire to again renew the armed strug-
gle for separate government. We are
satisfied that all such croakings are fool
ish, and that the people of the South, all
"recking with the crime of treason" as
the radicals have it, will manifest grea-
ter desire to return to the former order
of things, than the pack of infamous hell
hounds who howl around the heels of
the President, and attempt to force upon
the country policy Of destruction and
anarchy.

Another Indian Treaty.
w ASHINGTON.L \


The President has proclaimed the trea-
ty made with the head men and chiefs of
the Blackfcet band Of Dacotah and ST.
oux Indians. 1t is similar to that recent
ly made with two other bands of the same
Indians, by which they not only pledge
themselves to preserve peace towards the
United States, but to withdraw from the
overland routes. In consideration Of
these stipulations, they are to receive
seven thousand dollars per annum for
twenty years.
Reports received by the Bureau of Ref
ugees and Freedmen from the State of
Arkansas, for the month of February say
that rations were issued to SGT freed
men against 547 in the month Of Janua-
ry. The number Of destitute refugees
who have been supplied from the Gov
ernment stores has increased, as antici-
pated, nearly 100 per Cent. since the
month of January.
WASHINGTON, April l.
There are no additional Developments
relative to the vote on the pending veto
message in the Senate, on the civil rights
bill. The absence of Senators Wright
and Dixon, will, unless there are some
very remarkable changes, prevent the ve-
to from being sustained.
The Ways and Means Committee have
carefully considered the proposed tax on
cotton. The evidence taken by the In
ternal Revenue Committee on that sub
ject has just been before them. Some of
the large Southern planters who testified
stated that in political and not pecu-
mary sense, an export duty on cotton
would be disliked by the South. They
also added their belief that the cotton
crop for 1865 would not reach more than
one million and o half bales.
The Ways and Means Committee agreed
on the new tax bill. Among the articles
on which they have concluded to remove
all tax on freights, millinery, clothing,
dress making and gold leaf. No decis,
ion on crude petroleum has been reached.
