but as substantially and permanently a
Nation, wherein the pretensions of no part
can be admitted or upheld in opposition to
tne integrity the paramount authority, OF
the One Republic.
The right OF each man, by virtue of his birth
or his naturalization as citizen of the United
States, to the inlLenjoyment of "life, liberty,
and the pursuit OF happ ness" until he shall
forfeit the right by CRIME, is also established
on impregnable foundations. Our fathers
proclaimed ltIn justiiying their separatlo n
from Great Britain; it was left to US to es-
taollsh as TACT what they merely affirmed
as principle. What the cannon OF Saratoga
and Yorktown proclaimed as an abstraction,
the cannon ofGettysburg, Vicksburg, and Five
Forks esta blisbed as living embodied, en-
acted truth. Widely as our flag now floats,
still more widely as it may float hereafter,
/ there Is, there can henceforth be, no legal
master, no fettered slave. Wrongs and
abuses, servility ard oppression, may still
exist; but the Federal Constitution is no
longer their shield and the folds of our flag
no longer emblazon nor seek to conceal lie.
The hum )lest American,s so long as he violates
no law, is master OF his own limbs and the
| sole owner o all he can honestly care
| OF these immense results the Importance
and the beneficence will become more palpa
bic with every added year. Distance is re-
| qulred to enable us to measure and apprecl-
ate the magnitude OF the pyramid of Four
Millions of shackles, stricken from the SCARF
enduring monument of our struggle and our
| triumph New arts. new industries, new
developments of natural wealth, too long
unheeded and unvalued, will year by year
stand forth in attestatiOn that none OF US has
yet adequately realized the magnitude and
the benignity of our National victory.
No great good is ever achieved without
effort or without cost Four years of patrio-
tic struggle and sacrifice, Half Million OF
men slain in battle or dying of the .privations
and exposures Of War, Millions of bereaved
ones, Five Billions OF property destroyed, and
nearly Three Billions of Debt incurred, attest
the magnitude of the contest and the unyield-
ing valor of the eombatants.
At length, the smoke rises from the hard
won field showing that the last intrenchment
has been carried. The election of GRANT
and COLFAX gives assurance that the storm
| is over-that the Bow of promise arches the
sky. There are still obstacles to surmount,
perllS to avert noble ends to be achieved;
but the ship of State has ridden out the
tempest and has her haven full in view. The
seven States reconstructed under the recent
acts of Congress will stand. and will be fol-
lowed by the three that have hitherto stood
aloof the rights of the Freedmen will be
upheld and respected, and Impartial Suffrage
throughout the land will soon plant them
on foundations that cannot be shaken.
THE TRIBUNE will contend, in the future
as in the past,> for Universal Amnesty as
well as for Impartial Suffrage. 1t has no
faith in vengeance, in pro- cfiption, in combs
cation, nor in the shedding of blood otherwise
than IN actual and necessary war. There is
time for War and o time for Peace and
| the latter follows swiftly on the heels OF the
former. Whenever tlrose who fought against
the Union. shall have in good faith given up
the contest, they are no longer our foes but
our countrymen. IL ss
In the joyful trust that Grants election has
given the death-blow TO Ku-Klux Klans, and
all manner OF outrages on Unlohsts and
Freedmen as such, and that Impartial Suf-
irage will no longer be seriously resisted we
hope to see the next four years signalized by
an unprecedented expansion of The National
Industry and consequent increase of the
National wealth We hope to see new cabins
dot the prairie, new clearings chequer the
forest, new mills, factories, furnaces, erected,
North, South, East and West until our an
nual product shall be Hundreds of Millions
greater than at present, while Mines of Iron
and OF Coal, of Gold, Silver, Copper, &C.
shall be opened and worked with an energy
and to an extent that defes precedent. Be
lieying that the systematic, efficient Protec-
ton of Home Industry is the cornerstone
of a wise, bengnant National Policy, and
that it is essential to the rapid development
of eur latent resources, to the prosperity of
our country, the maintenance of her Credit,
and the honest payment of her Debt, we shall
give ii, our most earnest and active support.
