carefully and anxiously avoided doing
any one a wrong. / have sometimes
let what / regarded as faults or ne
glect of duty, go unpublished, for
fear I might possibly do the parties q
wrong; Notwithstanding I have made
many bitter enemies, who have been
unceasing in their efforts to injure
me; and this investigation now, has
been brought about by representa-
tions made from sheer malice and
envy. Anonymous communications
of dark insinuations are only made
by men who would stab you in the
dark.
I now leave this matter in your
hands, with consciousness that
have done my duty, and with the
hope that, in considering the evi-
dence before you, you will give due
weight to that malice and i'll feeling,
Though not written down, bat bo-
lieve we'll known to you, which GER
tain persons who have testified, bear
towards me.

The GENERAL AMNESTY Y.-Speaking
of President Johuson's Christmas
proclamation Of general amnesty, the
New York Herald says:
"This present proclamation re-
stores to Davis and company all their
rights, privileges and immunities
under the Constitution and laws of
the United States, but this does not
restore these men to their status as
citizens in full communion. The
constitutional amendment fourteen,
section three, debars from any civil
or military Office under the United
States, or any State, any man who,
after having taken an oath rs civil
or military officer of the United
States, or as a civil officer of any
State, to support the United States
Constitution, shall have participated
in rebellion against the same, or given
aid and comfort to the enemy; but
Congress may, by u vote of two
thirds of each house, remove such
disability The Presidents full and
unconditional pardon, therefore,
only restores the leaders of the re-
bellion to their rights as private citi-
zens; for they can only be restored
to the right to hold an ofIico of any
sort, civil or military, State or ma
tional, by two-thirds vote Of each
house of Congress. And section five
of said amendment says that Con-
gress shall have power to enforce its
provisions by appropriate legislation.
Not even the Union Leagues, then,
can reasonably object to this sweep
ing amnesty proclamation, and we
doubt not that the general public
judgment concerningit will be that it
il good thing"
