and published on Saturday.
And whereas, subsequently to the said
second day of April, one thousand eight
hundred sixty-six, the insurrection in the
State of Texas has been completely aud
everywhere suppressed and ended, andthe
authority of the United States has been sue.
csssfully and completely established in the
s.id State of Texas, and now remains there
in unrestricted and undisputed, and such of
the proper United States officers as have
been duly commissioned within the limits
of the said State are now in the undisturb-
ed exercise of their official functions;
And whereas the laws can now be sus.
tanned and enforced in the said State Of
Texas by the proper civil authority, State
or Federal, and the people of the said State
Of Texas, ike the people of other States
before named, are we'll aud Loyalty disposed,

WILLIAM ID. SEWARD, Sec'y OF State
SPEECH OF Hon. F. j. MOSES AT PHIL
ADELpH1A.-Amoug. the speakers at the
meeting of the Central Johnaou.C Clymer
Club in Philadelphia, on Tuesday of last
week, was. Judge Moses, Of South Carolina.
he said ......
he had no apology to make for South
Carolina. If she did discharge the first
gun in the warit was done openly, after thir-
ty years. notice to the General Government
If wrong, her people acted under the belief
that they were fighting for the Consultation.
She fought for five years, and having been
overcome she submitted, and was ready to
accept the result of the war. The people
of South Carolina, now knocking at the
doors of the two Houses at Washington for
che admission Of her representatives, are as
loyal to the Constitution as the people of
Pennsylvania and Massachusetts,. Cheers.
The South was ina peculiar position accord.
ing, to the Radical doctrine. For four
years the North fought to keep the South
in now they want another war to keep
them out. The speaker continued at con,
siderable length, discussing the state Of
feeling among the people of the. South
They had suffered greatly during the four
years of the war, and almost every house
was house of mourning; but, notwith.
standing all their losses, they we're ready
to return to their allegiance, and in. good
faith support the Constitution and the Un-
ion. No man in the. North could imagine
the condition of the Southern people, who,
finding themselves overcome, we're spurned
by Congress when they presented them.
selves as claimants to participation in the
Government.
The Radicals seem to be actuated by a
desire to crush rather than reconstruct, and
hence all the legislation at Washington was
designed to humiliate a people who, if
wrong, at least thought they we're right
Let the question be transferred to the sol,
diers and sailors of both sections it could
be determined in five days, and that with.
out prejudice to the people of the North or
the South. Although the national debt has
been incurred for the prosecution of war
to subdue the South, the people of the
South were willing and had actually regard,
ed its binding force upon them, and had
agreed to provide their portion of the a.
mount. What more could be required of
them They bad complied with every sug
gestion of the President of the United
States, and had in every way showed their
desire to once more become loyal citizens of
the United States
